Stray Chapter 50: The unlucky person is the happy person
Of course, the matter of visiting Buzi City can be discussed later, and Xia Ran just has such an idea.
After all, after the Fourth Holy Grail War in Fuyuki City ended, he didn't know how much his world interference would increase, and whether he could stay for a few months, these were uncertain.
Besides, what he can do after the past is indeed a question... The most important thing is that the noble person is theoretically unpredictable. Snow day.
But having a connection with that kind of existence is not necessarily a good thing. Mephala told Xia Ran such a thing with very kind and enthusiastic words and deeds.
Until now, he still doesn't know what hidden dangers this will bring, and where the hidden dangers are hidden.
So this kind of thing...let's talk about it later.
……
……
The first snow of this winter began to fall, but the residents of Fuyuki City did not have the heart to appreciate the snowy scenery. Moreover, after the successive gas explosions, hunting and murder, and other problems, normal people smelled unusual. the taste of.
In addition to the fact that the authorities are constantly advising people not to go out at night, they are almost ready to introduce a curfew policy, so after nightfall, they are probably afraid of frequent weird events. Residents locked themselves in their homes early on.
Although there are some guys whose curiosity outweighs fear, or who are not afraid of death at all, they don't take it seriously at all. They may be trying to understand the behind-the-scenes truth behind the recent frequent gas explosions in Fuyuki City. It may be true I don't think much about the existence of danger, or maybe I feel that I won't be so unlucky just to be killed by the disaster...
However, such people are still very few, so apart from a few streets and commercial areas in Xindu, the entire city of Fuyuki City seems to fall into a deep sleep as night falls. among.
The streets were quieter than usual. Not a single car could be seen, only the asphalt pavement was lit pale by the streetlights in the cold winter night.
Desolate streets give the illusion of being in a full-scale toy scene. If places beyond ordinary people's knowledge can be called "other worlds", then at this moment, Fuyuki City under this night is undoubtedly the case.
Snowflakes fell one after another, getting bigger and bigger, gradually covering the main roads between cities, the surfaces of buildings, street lamps, trees and other scenery with a faint white layer. Over time, perhaps Neither need until tomorrow-
It only needs to be late at night, and the city of winter will probably become a beautiful city wrapped in silver, like a real winter city.
In the cold wind and snow, a car was driving against the cold wind, driving quickly on the road, rolling up snow and smoke.
It is so silent, it seems that whether it is the roar of the engine or the friction between the tire and the road, these due sounds and movements have been silenced by some mysterious force, and no sound can be made. come out.
Unfortunately, its speed is so fast. Judging from the big drift of sharp turns, it is absolutely full of kinetic energy and power of Pengbai. The terrible speed must be enough to force the whole car in the event of a car accident. All crashed into discus.
But the whole process is so unreasonably quiet and silent, but it makes people feel a sense of disobedience.
This car is like a ghost that only haunts when the cold and biting north wind whistles. It travels through the streets of Fuyuki City incomparably swiftly. In the vast snowstorm.
Soon, the ghostly car stopped in front of the Tohsaka family's mansion.
……
……
About half an hour ago.
There was a murder case at the Tohsaka house, although it was discussing the final tactics and explaining the aftermath - after all, it was a very dangerous Holy Grail War, and this time the Holy Grail War seemed to be completely beyond his control. control, although he made a lot of preparations in advance.
Therefore, Tosaka Tokiomi still has the kind of awareness that if something happens to him, he will hand over the head of the Tohsaka family to Tohsaka Rin, and Komine Kirei will be her guardian until she reaches adulthood.
As long as he handed down the letter, which was almost equivalent to a will, to the Clock Tower, then the next thing would naturally be handled properly by the Magic Association. After all, he was still a member of the association, even if the Magic Association It is not the unity and strength of the church, but it is not without any help to the members of the association.
They have already talked about their own affairs, handed over their wills and appointed guardians for their daughters, so it is natural to win people's hearts and cultivate feelings.
So at the end of the conversation, Tokiomi Tosaka gave the azoth sword to Kotomine Kirei, and admitted that this was the latter's success in cultivating the Tohsaka family's magic, and now he can prove that he has graduated as an apprentice.
You must know that in the magic association, the azoth sword is a very popular gift and has a very symbolic meaning. In addition, as a magic dress, its performance is also more practical. It is not used for direct slashing or stabbing. It is mainly used to increase magic power, and it is used to assist and strengthen when using magic.
In other words, the azoth sword is used as a magic dress, although it uses the shape of a dagger and a short sword, but it is actually a magic wand that acts as an amplification device-it also proves that as long as a mage likes to carry it around The fact of a dagger, I don't know who stipulated it, it seems to be a conventional rule.
Anyway, in the Magic Association, it is very popular to give azoth swords. Usually, it is a souvenir given by parents or teachers to children or students during coming-of-age ceremonies.
As a member of the Magic Association, Tohsaka Tokiomi naturally followed such a custom. He made such an exquisite short sword with his own ancestral gems and gave it to Kotomine Kirei, who gave it to the latter. A pair of master treasures.
Kotomine Kirei held the dagger in his hand and looked at it carefully, his eyes fell on the sharp edge of the dagger and did not look away for a long time, and his expressionless face, Tosaka Tokiomi Naturally, it must have been an expression full of gratitude.
It can only be said that in the past three years, this elegant magician has always misunderstood his disciple's personality and inner world.
Kotomine Kirei had just been bewitched by some of the most ancient scumbags before, and his heart had begun to shake. He was in a state of uncertainty at the moment, and he didn't know if he wanted to obey the scumbag's words and face himself. The nature of the pursuit of pleasure, or continue to adhere to the previous concept.
At this time, Tokiomi Tosaka gave him the azoth sword...
Because of his involvement in the Holy Grail War, Tokiomi Tosaka temporarily dismissed his family, and there was no one else in the Tohsaka House. This graceful magician faced his disciple with a twisted nature, and even his tyrannical servant wanted him to die...
Kotomine Kirei suddenly realized that this is the arrangement of fate, if all this is an accidental assembly, then why did Tosaka Tokiomi present this short sword to himself at this time and place Woolen cloth?
Doesn't all of this indicate that this is an inevitable event?
As a result, the sword of azoth, a proof of friendship and trust, passed through the gap between the ribs and pierced directly into the heart. There is no killing intent at all, or even no warning at all, so naturally there is no need to be prepared.
Tohsaka Tokiomi didn't understand until his death what was going on. There was no understanding in his eyes until the end, but with a lifeless and confused expression, he collapsed on the carpet.
"Humph! What a disappointing ending."
After Tohsaka Tokiomi fell, a golden light suddenly surged next to the body, and along with the dazzling aura appeared Gilgamesh incarnate.
There was a look of contempt in his arrogant eyes, and he kicked the corpse of his former master with his toes very rudely: "I was expecting him to fight back before he died, but it seems that He didn't realize his stupidity until the end."
This is a terrible fact.
Because the Spiritual Servant was right next to him, Tokiomi Tosaka's relaxation of his vigilance could not be entirely due to carelessness. But this also means that he was unsuspectingly murdered by his disciple under the watchful eye of his servant.
Gilgamesh was not at his side to provide protection at all, he just wanted to see his Master being killed. If something went wrong, he might fight against the **** of the contract to help make up for it. Knives are not sure.
The one who completely trusts will kill him, and the one who protects him will also kill him...
"I feel it, Kirei, isn't this kind of thing very pleasant?" The golden servant looked at the man who seemed to be contemplating something, and laughed sarcastically, "About my previous proposal. , you should have a decision."
"...I don't have a Command Spell, so I can't sign a contract with you." Kotomine Kirei looked at him.
"Hmph, doesn't this idiot still have a stroke on his hand?" Kicking Tosaka Tokiomi's body, which was gradually losing its temperature, Gilgamesh sneered, "And your father, he In his hands, there are Command Spells left over from the previous Holy Grail Wars..."
“…”
“…”
"What are you waiting for? Wouldn't you like to experience this pleasure again?" The irony in Gilgamesh's eyes was even greater. "If the target is your father, wouldn't you want to try it? Have fun..."
Red pupils filled with joyful light, black pupils filled with emotion.
The eyes of the two twisted "people" were intertwined, and then there seemed to be some consensus.
……
……
According to the previously agreed tactics, after confirming that Xia Ran would be able to arrive soon, Matou Kariya directly ordered Berserker to transform into a demolition machine and launched a strong attack on the Tohsaka family's mansion.
Despite the intricate barrier, the Tohsaka family is protected in layers.
But under the berserker's violent rampage, it was broken open layer by layer. The barrier was originally designed to deal with magic. It can be said that it is a first-class anti-magic. defense system.
If you attack hard, you won't be able to break even if you use it for a year, but that's relative to the standard of a magus, and doesn't refer to the destructive power of a Servant.
The brute force cracking went very smoothly, without even being blocked, so that Matou Kariya, who had an overly excited expression on his face, gradually realized that something was wrong——
Did Tokiomi Tosaka happen to be not at home when he was sending warmth?
