Chapter 264: Doing Business
"Of course, it's to use the Holy Grail to open the [Root]! That's the ultimate goal that all magicians pursue!"
The rising flames made Toshiomi Tōsaka escape from the black mud. As a price, the ceremonial dress in his hand was completely destroyed, and even his own magic circuits were greatly affected.
But these are all trivial matters. As an orthodox magician, the fifth-generation head of the Toshiomi family, one of the "three founding families", it is very normal for Toshiomi Tōsaka to participate in the Holy Grail War.
That is to reach the "Root" through the Holy Grail!
That's right, among the seven Masters participating in the Holy Grail War this time, Toshiomi Tōsaka's wish is the most normal and most likely to be realized.
Look at what the other people are thinking.
Emiya Kiritsugu, a righteous partner, participated in the Holy Grail War to realize his long-cherished wish to save everyone. He is the most noble among the seven people.
Kotomine Kirei, to be precise, he did not deliberately want to realize his wish, and he didn't even know why he was chosen by the Holy Grail.
Kenneth, this guy is just unlucky, he just wants to add anecdotes that are evaluated as "martial arts" to his experience, that's the reason.
Then he was chopped by Kiritsugu 2333
Then there is Weber, he is not for anything special, he just wants to show his strength by winning the Holy Grail War and get everyone's recognition.
Finally, there is Uryu Ryunosuke who got involved by chance, he has no intention of realizing any wishes, he just enjoys killing people and committing crimes everywhere.
As for Zhao Chen, let alone, he is just here for vacation, and participates in the Holy Grail War as after-dinner entertainment, although he later discovered some secrets behind this world.
But in the final analysis, he is just a slacker and a melon eater, and this live-action melon is really delicious.
So, please cherish Tohsaka Tokiomi, the magician who is very serious from beginning to end and has a clear purpose. There are really not many such people.
Cherish it, but Zhao Chen still ignored Tohsaka Tokiomi's words, anyway, he is not the final winner.
"What do you think?"
While speaking, Zhao Chen stretched out his hand and made two seals in the air, recalling a talisman with a faint white light.
His eyes passed over the paper emitting a gentle white light, and Artoria shook her head. She felt that she might have felt it wrong, and she actually felt the breath of Irisviel from this paper.
"I"
Looking at the small Holy Grail in the sky, Artoria was about to speak when Kiritsugu Emiya woke up from his coma.
After the inner torture and torment in the Holy Grail, Kiritsugu Emiya's face turned pale the moment he woke up.
At the same time, the scabbard that had been protecting him turned into a stream of light and sank into his body, and the power to heal his injuries made his face look better.
"Master, you"
Before Artoria finished speaking, she was interrupted by Kiritsugu's behavior.
He slowly raised his right hand, revealing the Command Seal engraved on the back of his hand, the Command Seal in the shape of a scale composed of four spears of different lengths!
"I command [Saber] in the name of the Command Seal, use your Noble Phantasm to completely destroy the Holy Grail in front of you!"
The restraining power of the Command Seal made Altria move involuntarily, and the golden holy sword that reappeared in her hand began to weave beams of light, and all the magic power that had just recovered in her body was injected into the holy sword.
Tōsaka Tokiomi, who was shocked by this sudden situation, instantly scolded: "Emiya Kiritsugu, what do you want to do? That's the Holy Grail!"
After hearing Kiritsugu's words, he also spoke.
"It's so stupid, I can't understand it. Why do you reject it? Even after rejecting it, you want to destroy it!"
A low voice full of anger and hatred. This is the first time that Emiya Kiritsugu has heard Kotomine Kirei's voice directly.
"There is no need for this kind of thing to exist, and do you think there will be any benefit in accepting it?"
After using the Command Seal, Kiritsugu's voice also changed a little. It was a hoarse and tired voice that was hollow, which showed the inner torture he experienced in the Holy Grail.
"You have abandoned everything, sacrificed everything, and finally come to this point! Why do you refuse something that is within your reach!
"That thing will use huge sacrifices to exchange for results that are not so worthwhile - that's all."
Coldly saying this, Emiya Kiritsugu turned his head again to look at Zhao Chen, then stretched out his right hand and used the second Command Seal.
"In the name of the Command Seal, I command [Saber] to use the Noble Phantasm to crush the Holy Grail now! "
If one Command Spell can be resisted, then two Command Spells with the same command cannot be resisted, even for Artoria who has A-level anti-magic power.
Although, she did not mean to resist the Command Spell. After all, in the popular science session just now, she had fully understood the current situation of the Holy Grail and had the idea of destroying it in her heart.
But this kind of behavior of being forced to execute orders is really uncomfortable!
Altoria, with a bitter smile, was completely controlled by the power of the Command Spell. The magic power in her body was continuously injected into the Holy Sword and then incorporated into the Light of Destruction.
It was at this time that Mordred stood beside his father, and the King's Sword in his hand opened its hideous shape again, and the crimson lightning burst out violently with the magic power of the man holding the sword.
The next moment, the terrifying light cannon fired by Altria and Mordred together directly lifted the roof of the entire hall. The extremely shining light made the citizens of Fuyuki City see an extremely unforgettable scene.
From the civic hall that was still under renovation, a huge light column of gold, red and black mixed from the bottom rose from the bottom, which even outshone the sun in the sky.
Fortunately, this strange scene only appeared for a few seconds, and then the sky, which was still a little hazy, was pierced through by the light column, leaving rippled clouds.
I don’t know what the people responsible for the aftermath are feeling now
In the hall, Tohsaka Tokiomi and Kotomine Kirei, who were watching the destruction of the Holy Grail, were about to go crazy. Right in front of them, the Holy Grail was destroyed!
This person is really a lunatic, he can destroy something like the Holy Grail!
I don’t know if Emiya Kiritsugu is crazy, but Kotomine Kiritsugu is indeed crazy. He roared and rushed towards Kiritsugu.
"Why, it is clearly eager to be born, eager to come to this world, why do you do this! Ah, you are really - stupid beyond reason"
What stopped his voice and body was an origin bullet fired by Kiritsugu without hesitation, which passed through Kotomine Kirei's heart and took away his last chance of life.
"It's a pity, but that's it. This Holy Grail War is over, but there will definitely be a next time. The Holy Grail is not something that can be easily destroyed!"
With his eyes on Kirei, Tohsaka Tokiomi walked over and carried him on his back. After leaving this sentence, he slowly walked out of the hall.
He now needs to bury Kirei, his nominal disciple, properly. This is his responsibility as a teacher.
"Oh my, the Holy Grail is gone, so it's time to say goodbye. So, Mordred, Altria, see you later!"
Zhao Chen raised his right hand, and the Command Spell on it slowly disappeared, and with it, the two people standing in front of him with the same smile - Mordred and Altria.
Watching the last two Heroic Spirits leave, Zhao Chen turned his head to look at Emiya Kiritsugu and Weber, and said with a smile: "Next, are you interested in doing business, both of you?"
