Multiverse: Starting With Killer Queen

Roland looked at Emiya Kiritsugu with a smile. If he had to pick a protagonist in the Fourth War, it would be the man in front of him with a dead expression, wearing a black windbreaker, and his calm eyes were full of despair.

It can be said that even after the Holy Grail War ended, everything left behind by this dead man still lingers and creates new stories.

Among all the masters, Roland least wanted to face this guy. However, when the spirit contract was in his hands, nothing mattered.

"I've already dealt with Hisau Maiya. The Einzbern androids haven't arrived in Fuyuki City yet, but it doesn't matter."

Roland pointed his index finger at Emiya Kiritsugu and announced, "It's your turn next, Emiya Kiritsugu."

Such a close threat made Emiya Kiritsugu, who had not yet recovered from the previous scene, move his expression.

What kind of feelings did he have for Hisau Maiya? If he was asked to answer, Kiritsugu would not be able to answer. Hisau Maiya had already made up his mind to sacrifice himself a long time ago.

She also didn't want Emiya Kiritsugu to avenge her, because Kiritsugu was just that kind of person. He wouldn't be shaken by the words of others, nor would he change because of changes in things. He would fight for the dream of being a righteous partner like a machine.

However, at this moment, the murderous intent surging in his chest was by no means false.

"asshole!"

He forced himself to calm down again. His injured body seemed to be ignited by emotions, and he felt endless strength. Emiya Kiritsugu was not moved at all, and walked towards Roland step by step with heavy and powerful steps.

Roland was slightly startled by this unusual behavior.

However, feeling the increasingly strong rhythm of the Key of All Spirits and the desire for a miracle right before his eyes, the corners of his mouth still uncontrollably stretched into an excited smile with his hands spread out.

"Wow, you're actually walking towards me. Why don't you run away and come to me to die?"

"Even though your assistant Hisau Maiya had to work so hard to tell you the secret of my ability, like a student still answering questions at the end of an exam, she tried her best to tell you."

"How am I going to kill you if I don't come closer?"

There was a cold light flashing in Emiya Kiritsugu's eyes, and his steps did not pause at all.

"Oh, why not come a little closer?"

Roland also left the spot and walked towards Emiya Kiritsugu. He knew that the other party had the Command Seals, but he was not afraid. On the one hand, he had to kill Emiya Kiritsugu and take away the Contracted Spirit no matter what, and he also had the confidence that he could kill the other party before he used the Command Seals.

On the other hand, Roland has full confidence in Emiya Kiritsugu.

This man had an obsession that was twisted like a curse. Before his defenses were completely broken, he would put his father, adoptive mother, and wife on one end of the scale without hesitation, abandoning his personal feelings and discarding them as mere numbers.

While Hisau Maiya was alive, she might still be of use, but after her death, Emiya Kiritsugu would definitely calmly judge the value of this matter. Obviously, in front of the Holy Grail, this would definitely be something that would be discarded.

If it was just for revenge, the other party should have summoned the heroic spirit immediately.

The two men walked to a safe distance, stopped, and looked at each other like cowboys preparing for a showdown.

"You won't use the Command Spell?"

Roland asked first.

"A simple exchange is meaningless, but if you are prepared to waste a Command Spell here meaninglessly, I will accompany you."

Seeing Roland's fearless expression, Emiya Kiritsugu's heart sank. Although the Masters had not yet arrived, the Heroic Spirits must have been summoned.

At this point in time, unless one has no interest in this war, or is just a lucky person who has made up the numbers, there will be no Master who has not summoned a Heroic Spirit.

But Hisau Maiya is obviously not someone who can be solved by a lucky person. In Emiya Kiritsugu's eyes, Roland is like a shrewd conspirator. Not only did he realize that he is the real Master, but he also used his previous experience as a magician killer to find Maiya as his assistant. He should not be underestimated.

But precisely because of this, even though it was a bit cold, Emiya Kiritsugu had to maximize the value of Maiya's death.

Maiya has already revealed the other party's identity as the seventh Master, and he has also witnessed the other party's attainments in explosions. Moreover, from the fact that Maiya was able to send messages to him before, it can be seen that the other party's servants have probably been sent out.

This person is very similar to himself. This seemingly arrogant behavior just shows that the other party has absolute confidence in dealing with the battle between masters.

——Besides that, Emiya Kiritsugu couldn't think of any reason why the enemy would leave the Servant so rashly. It couldn't be that the other party didn't have any Servant at all?

And this is the opportunity.

One-on-one with the Master, Emiya Kiritsugu had absolute confidence. He wanted to eliminate an enemy in advance while the enemy was feeling arrogant because of the victory!

Emiya Kiritsugu's action was very fast and sudden. Using the cover of his windbreaker, he pulled out a pistol and fired without hesitation.

"Front-on fire? You should know that this kind of thing won't work on me."

The firing rate of the semi-automatic pistol was too easy for Killer Queen to see through. She blocked it in front of Roland and waved it in the air a few times with only one hand. Then, as if for demonstration, Killer Queen slowly loosened her grip, letting the brass bullet hit the ground casually, making a crisp sound.

Such behavior made Emiya Kiritsugu's eyelids jump, and a look of shock appeared on his face for a moment, but soon, this shock was suppressed by a deeper solemnity.

Unlike the magi he had faced before, who used shields created by amulets or ceremonial objects to defend themselves, the guardian spirit that this mysterious master relied on could actually catch bullets out of the air.

He must increase his magic power so that the connection between him and the guardian spirit can become deeper.

Kiritsugu Emiya made up his mind, and like a cheetah, he lowered his body and began to run wildly. He took out another submachine gun and fired randomly in the direction of Roland.

In order to avoid capsizing in the ditch, Roland also retreated slightly to a place with cover. Under the protection of Killer Queen, he moved behind the cover unscathed.

"Is that all? Then how did you deal with the withering heart-piercing attack? The child shouldn't be misled by something of this level."

Roland frowned. He sensed that the Contract Spirit had not attached itself to Emiya Kiritsugu. Could it be that the other party had used the strange abilities generated by the props that the Contract Spirit possessed? This shouldn't be the case. How could his mind be so normal after using that kind of thing?

But this time, Emiya Kiritsugu, who had been silent all this time, finally answered.

"Isn't it easy to solve that kind of thing? All it requires is a few extra sacrifices."

Emiya Kiritsugu explained his plan in his usual calm voice.

"That's the Grim Reaper chasing after temperature, so we just need to create a place with a higher temperature."

As if he had thought of something, Roland subconsciously looked out the window. Although the view was not very good, the gloomy black sky was already filled with a different color.

——That was the flickering light of fire.

Near this abandoned building, most of the structures are still made of wood. Once a fire is ignited, it will spread if it is not controlled in time.

This is a method that the protagonists in the original novel would never use. Even the villains would not be able to react to this behavior in the first place.

Roland raised his eyebrows, as if he had gotten to know the silent man all over again.

Before reaching his goal, this man will regard all other lives as the last bloodshed before obtaining the Holy Grail.

This is the ally of justice, Emiya Kiritsugu.
