Chapter 78
Chapter 78
After coming out of the restaurant, Emiya and Cu Chulainn didn't rush anywhere.The two just walked side by side on the stone road that retained the medieval European style.
While walking, chatting, if you are interested, you can take a closer look.They walked up and down the stairs and slopes, as if they were tourists who really came to appreciate the medieval style.
Wherever you pass, there are either low-rise residential buildings with local characteristics on both sides, or various specially preserved workshops; when you walk to the center of the town square, you can also see the landmark clock tower of the town and tourists who come here for its reputation, and The goal on both sides of the street is the open-air seating area set up by various drinks and dessert shops for tourists, and the parasols are greatly opened.
Historical charm and modern facilities blend harmoniously here.Oh, and all sorts of unremarkable little things with runes engraved on it, like rubble at the foot of the wall or something...
According to the comprehensive records, it is not surprising that this place will become the hunting ground for the black Assassin—Jack the Ripper to replenish his magic power.
Advance arrangements are a must.Besides, it's not without extra rewards.
There is a suspected stalker.
The reason why I say "suspected" is because this guy's skills are not very good, he is completely disguised... It may also be that the transformation ability is supporting the scene, so that the Ruler team can't pinpoint exactly which eyes it is when they fake visit the ancient town and make the real arrangement. Don't know the guys who cover up are lurking around?
A suspicious guy who will keep an eye on them and has the ability to hide, no matter how he thinks about it... probably has something to do with the Holy Grail War.
"Hey, do you want to go back and have a look? No matter how many private conversations a father and daughter have, we should finish talking after we have been wandering around for so long."
"Then go back and have a look."
Emiya seemed to have thought about it for a while before turning around and changing the way, walking to the alley with residential houses on both sides and few tourists but relatively close to the previous restaurant.
When Cu Chulainn passed by, they exchanged a look.
──No stalker found.
──The sight of the urgent nail is still there.
That sneaky guy is weird enough!It is also a necessary skill for tracking. His camouflage ability and surveillance ability are really two extremes.
With his hands in his pockets, his blue heroic silver earrings swayed slightly, and his long ponytail, which was brighter in color, followed in a beautiful arc, and he followed his red partner lightly.
It's like you didn't notice someone was following you.
It seems...whether it's the current body or the ghost in the records, when the two of them didn't choose to walk side by side in a more intimate way, they often walked like this. Emiya leads the way and decides the direction; Cu Chulainn follows behind, which means "I will go wherever you go", very casual.
However, the impact is still there.
In the three states of "no one behind", "a stranger behind" and "Cuchulin behind", the degree of muscle tension of Emiya actually changes. The wide shoulders supported by the straight spine are only in the He will relax a little when he is followed by Cu Chulainn... After all, he is used to being alert anytime and anywhere.
──From before death to after death.
This is a man who insists on standing firmly even if his body is full of sharp swords.In this regard, he and Cu Chulainn chose to tie themselves to a stone pillar when they were about to die, and stand resolutely to meet death, but they have some similarities in common. Contradictions are strange enough.
Closer to home.
On the way back to the restaurant, Emiya and Cu Chulainn really ignored the mysterious stalker behind them.They kept walking at a speed similar to that of ordinary people, and after a while, the restaurant where they met with the red Saber team re-entered the field of vision of the two of them.
Similarly, they also entered the vision of the red Saber Mordred who hadn't gone far. "Hey, that's not Kinfang...Master, the Kinfang guy is back again."
Holding the fried chicken nugget bucket in her arms, the coolly dressed girl chewed and talked, and then put a new piece into her mouth.
Shi Shi Jie was in communication with his own intelligence channel at this time. Hearing this, his eyes behind the sunglasses turned suddenly, and he was sitting on the outdoor seat, facing the street at an angle that allowed him to clearly see the approaching man from the diagonal left. Ruler, and the magician who is Ruler's master and the only known master of Jinfang.
They stopped before approaching the restaurant and turned leisurely.Immediately, the short street seemed to be cut off from the real world, and Lion Jie Jieli clearly sensed the existence of the enchantment.
They must not only turn around this action!However, the subsequent developments were all blocked by the enchantment.He is a magician so he can detect it, and ordinary people will just bypass that area and not notice it.
Lion Jie doesn't mean to be troublesome.
The position of the two parties on the lunch date has been made very clear: they are neither friends nor enemies.Jin Fang currently feels to him more like a team specially drawn up to assist Ruler in his work, rather than a newly dispatched backup from the Magic Association.Just as he was deliberating, he heard Moredre muttering awkwardly: "... I seem to see father, father king... tsk."
"It should be Jin Fang who is dealing with private matters. Let's just pretend we didn't find out."
"Well."
Mordred acquiesced in this response.In fact, because she saw the "father" who lived in a different world line and was more human than the father in her memory, she began to think again-in the end, what she longed for was the recognition of the king's qualifications, or something else... ...slenderer, more mundane...
If the king can pull out the sword of king selection, she must be able to, too!But what she desires most in her heart...is it really to challenge that sword?
The Servant suddenly fell silent, Shi Shijie immediately realized that something was wrong with Mordred.
However, looking at the pensive girl holding the fried chicken nugget bucket, the strange painting style and the erratic expression on the Servant's face, he decided to observe for a while.Maybe after a while Saber won't be able to hold back his words, then he can answer Saber's question as appropriate.This is the best!
The psychological changes of a group of spectators outside the barrier will naturally not affect the confrontation inside the barrier.
It was Cu Chulainn who set the barrier, but it was Arthur who controlled the range of the barrier and the timing of activation.After he finished the father-daughter communication and came out of the restaurant, he established a three-way telephony connection with Emiya, and then started a stalking game of "you and them, me and you".
The result was that at this time, between the King of Knights, who was wearing a shirt with trousers, a vest, and a long trench coat, and Ruler's master and slave, who were also in casual clothes, there was only one tall woman who was pulled out.
She was born gorgeous and seductive, with high slits on her thighs in a dress, and she couldn't hide her dusty look... The most important thing was the green light that shone in the eyes of Ruler's master and slave for the first three seconds when she was finally caught. Brownish, it shows that although this person is currently safe, he has the potential to be a dangerous person.
She obviously didn't expect that she would be exposed like this, a bit of surprise flashed across her face, and then she disappeared under the gaze of three pairs of eyes!Yes, the disappearing method like "Shooting" almost makes people suspect that seeing a beautiful woman or something is purely an illusion caused by eye or mental fatigue.
The premise is that at that moment, she was not aware that she was actually a──
"Servants."
"What's the matter! Is the world line the tone? The last world was dedicated to house the Master who travels through, and this world is replaced with the Servant who travels through?" The exaggerated ups and downs of Cu Chulainn's voice also represented his first emotional reaction at the moment.
"...Zero seems to have said that there is no way to control the travel behavior and the landing point, but it can be guided which world line to travel to." Emiya heard the words and thought back seriously, just affirming Cu Chulainn's hypothesis.
"Huh? Why doesn't I remember that she said such a thing?"
"That's why you weren't listening at all."
Another person who told Emiya the truth about the girl's inhumanity, Arthur had no one to quarrel with.This also made him feel very serious, but unfortunately, no matter where he was originally standing or the surrounding area, there seemed to be nothing, and it was suspected that the girl ran away directly through the barrier.
"Don't get me wrong. I have no intention of running away."
A male voice sounded in the void, and in the next second, a man in a white suit with blond hair, blue eyes and a fashionable hairstyle appeared in the place where the girl disappeared.
"It's better to say that I was caught right away. It just happened to help me make a choice. That's good." He looked around, and simply took a few steps back by himself, pulling the straight line into a triangle, and then continued: "I first Let me introduce myself. This man's name is Sagara Hooma, and he is the former Kurokata Assassin's Master."
Obviously, except for the lavender shirt, the suit jacket, trousers, and leather shoes are all white, but a man who can wear a fancy and frivolous look is a beautiful dumper!Said that if there is any dislike to his image, it is the fault of the current identity.
"My real name... I don't know either. But the name given to me by the world is──Jack the Ripper. I have a class of Berserker, and there is currently no Master, and it wasn't the Holy Grail War that summoned me. That's why!"
"You mean, you want to surrender to us?"
The questioner is Arthur.His serious, emerald green eyes firmly grasped the gaze of the man who heard the sound--the king's eyes cannot be deceived by lies.
"Yes. Didn't I say that you guys make the choices for me? It's also very tiring to find people with magician qualifications to replenish the magic every day." He spread his hands and said nothing.
In the conversation between the three of them, Emiya said: "I tend to keep the person with the problem by my side."
"Jack the Ripper... is that murderer from London? And the Ripper isn't Assassin? According to the records, he's still a little guy who hasn't fully developed yet. But he didn't lie, his real name and class are the same as what I saw. Cu Chulainn tried out the adjudicator class skill "True Name Discernment" as he wished.
"His thinking is also very clear, not like Berserker at all." Arthur added his opinion. "But I agree with Emiya. Crazy murderer, it's better to stay by your side."
"what!"
"What do you want to say?" Frowning coldly, the pseudo-magician who was already looking at the Ripper asked.
"I just thought of one thing temporarily. While I was here in the world, I also received some memory fragments that did not come from the Holy Grail, and many terms were not easy to understand. Then I went to verify it──in the city of Mirenia in the black side For some reason, the cyborg who is the "protagonist" of this Holy Grail War does not seem to exist."
