366 Illya's Game
Fuyuki said it was not big, but it was not small either. It may be due to poverty. When Tohsaka Rin took Tang Hao to the Holy Church, he did not use any transportation, so it took more than half an hour to finally reach the destination. land.
The door of the Holy Church was closed, and it seemed to be out of business, but Tohsaka Rin was obviously not here for the first time. He stepped forward and opened the door, and Tang Hao followed her.
It's also strange. It's already dark, but the church doesn't even light a lamp. It looks pitch black. In the animation, it’s understandable that the lights are not lit in order to create an atmosphere, but why don’t you light the lights in reality? Is it the same as Rin, because of poverty?
Tang Hao grumbled in his heart, and gradually followed Tohsaka Rin to the depths of the church. He walked past rows of chairs. In front of him, in the intersection of moonlight penetrating through the windows on the left and right sides, stood a man. The back of the priest.
The moonlight did not shine directly on the priest, but it was still visible that his back was strong and his shoulders were broad, giving him a feeling of vitality.
Um?
Tang Hao blinked his eyes. Kotomine Kirei must be almost forty years old now. How could he be so energetic?
"Hey, has the priest been replaced today?" Just as he was thinking about it, Tohsaka Rin started to speak.
Not Mapo?
Tang Hao's heart moved. At this moment, the priest opposite finally turned around... In the church where light and shadow alternated, a very young priest appeared in front of Tang Hao. He had white hair, handsome appearance, and slightly squinted. The eyes and the gentle smile on his face give people a feeling of spring breeze, and they are really very young.
He must be seventeen years old at most.
The young priest bowed slightly and said with a smile: "I'm sorry, I was praying just now. Although I heard the sound of guests arriving, I still couldn't get up to greet them. Is there something wrong with you two?"
Tohsaka Rin looked him up and down, "Aren't you a fake priest?"
"Me? Of course it's the priest."
"Ah, I'm sorry." Rin Tosaka scratched his head and half-opened his eyes, "Maybe what I just said caused a misunderstanding. I'm not calling you a fake priest, but I know the priest here before..."
"I see." The young priest suddenly smiled, "You are here to see Father Kotomine, right... Ah, it's a bit strange to say that, because I am also Father Kotomine. To differentiate, you can call me little priest. ”
"Your last name is Kotomine too?"
"Yes, my name is Kotomine Shiro."
When Tang Hao heard this, his eyes suddenly changed, "Shirou or Shiro?"
Even in Japanese pronunciation, the words Shiro and Shiro are extremely similar.
The little priest was also stunned for a moment, looked at Tang Hao, and then smiled: "There is actually no difference between Shirou and Shiro. As long as there is a sincere heart, the name is just a peripheral thing. You can call me Shirou. You can also call me Shiro.”
"But even if you have a sincere heart, you still need to write your name when submitting a written report. Isn't there any difference at this time?"
"That's right, but the name is not that important to me, and I am just a new priest. I don't need to submit a written report for the time being. I will decide if necessary in the future." The little priest said calmly, Although it seems that you are trying to evade, but because he has a particularly approachable temperament, it makes people feel that he really doesn't care about his name at all.
"By the way, it would be a pity if you are here to see Father Kotomine. He is out of town for the time being, and the matters here have been left to me to handle."
Tohsaka Rin frowned, "In other words, you have temporarily replaced the fake priest's position, then, the supervision of the Holy Grail War..."
"Ah, yes, I am currently responsible for that." The young priest smiled and nodded, "Since the Holy Grail War was mentioned, I think you must be Miss Rin of the Tohsaka family. I heard Father Kotomine mention you, And then this..."
Noticing that the young priest was looking at him, Tang Hao smiled and said, "I'm just a traveler passing by. I have nothing to do with the Holy Grail War. I just happened to stay at Tohsaka's house."
Tohsaka Rin glanced away, but didn't say much.
"Really, what did those two people come to the Holy Church for? Although I am not as capable as Father Kotomine, I still have the desire to work hard on my own. If you have any troubles, you can also discuss it with me. "
"No, it's just a personal matter..." Tohsaka Rin shook her head. She had already seen that Tang Hao didn't want to talk to the young priest, so she politely refused, "Since the fake priest is not here, let's leave first. .”
The two of them were about to leave, but the little priest did not hold back, still smiling lightly, "Have a good trip, those two. In addition, the Holy Grail War is a secret operation. I hope Miss Tohsaka can compete with other magicians." Strict confidentiality, and as Father Kotomine often mentioned, please do not cause too much damage to the town, because the subsequent repair work will be done by the church..."
"I know, I know!"
Hearing his blabbering, Tohsaka Rin was so frightened that he ran away.
…
"I don't like that guy."
Not long after, the two people who left the church were walking on the road. Tohsaka Rin frowned and said, "Although that little priest is always smiling and approachable, I always feel that he seems to be hiding something. Every time I see his smile, There was an inexplicable and very uncomfortable feeling that even gave me a faint chill.”
"It's normal. I also think that guy is quite suspicious."
Tohsaka Rin turned his head and said, "Did you find out anything when you asked his name just now?"
Tang Hao nodded and shook his head, "Indeed, but we can't be sure yet. If he is Kotomine Shirou, then we need to be vigilant. If he is Kotomine Shiro, we need to be very vigilant, or even the worst possibility. …Will anyone listen if we talk like this?”
Suddenly, a trace of vigilance flashed in Tang Hao's eyes. A mysterious little priest appeared. He was probably Shiro Amakusa, the biggest shady figure in a certain Holy Grail War. If it was really him, then the chaos in Fuyuki would be even more serious than he thought, and he would have to be more careful.
Tohsaka Rin immediately looked around and said: "It is true that magicians can monitor long-distance movements through familiars, but there are restrictions on use. At least I have not found the existence of familiars now, and there is basically no possibility of being monitored by others. The possibility... Of course, it does not rule out that the person monitoring us is very powerful and can ignore my magic detection."
"Yeah." Tang Hao nodded, "Then let's go back to Tosaka House first. At least it's safer there."
Tohsaka Rin did not object, and the two of them accelerated their walking speed.
"Hey, are you going back so soon?"
At this moment, a crisp sound penetrated into the ears of the two of them like a deep spring.
Tohsaka Rin's expression changed, and he looked intently, and saw two more figures on the street in front of him, as if they had flashed in an instant. One was a little girl about ten years old, wearing an exquisite dress, and the other He was a giant man over two meters tall. Just looking at his figure, you could feel a strong sense of oppression.
"berserker!"
Tohsaka Rin couldn't help but lost her voice. Such a conspicuous presence allowed her to quickly determine the identity of the other party.
Ahead, the girl took a few steps forward, held up the hem of her skirt with both hands, bowed slightly, and said with a smile: "Rin, this is the first time we meet, my name is Illyasviel. Although the original last name has been abandoned by me, when it comes to Ai Inzbern’s words, you should be able to know.”
"Einzbern..." Tohsaka Rin frowned. Of course, it was impossible to forget this last name. In other words, wasn't this girl the Master sent by Einzbern this time? Although I don’t know what it means to have given up my last name, but, “Since you appear here, do you want to kill me?”
At least, the mutual enemy positions are still clear.
"Of course." Illya smiled innocently and brightly, "In the Holy Grail War, killing all the participants except yourself is how this game is played. Hehe, what a pity, Rin, you are the first one to be eliminated. .”
Oops Oops!
Tohsaka Rin frowned deeply, feeling extremely shocked. She was not surprised to meet the master of Einzbern. It was a matter of time, but the Berserker opposite was too terrifying. If she looked at it with her eyes, she would be surprised. Being able to observe the astonishing magical power and the abnormally powerful body, this kind of servant... is a monster in the true sense!
"However, I really didn't expect to meet here again. This is the second time we have met, big brother."
Um?
Tohsaka Rin's eyes flashed, but he saw that Illya's eyes had passed over her body and looked at Tang Hao. There was a bit of elusiveness in his smile, "Big brother didn't listen to my advice. Not only did he not Leaving Fuyuki and running to Rin's side instead, or...is the elder brother from Rin's side from the beginning?"
"Have you seen her?" Tohsaka Rin glared at Tang Hao.
"I saw it during the day, but don't mention it now. Where is your servant?" Tang Hao said immediately. The power of berserker not only shocked Rin Tohsaka, but even Tang Hao couldn't muster much fighting spirit. This level of The monster is not something he can handle at all, and at least Yu Ji needs to take action.
"Servant... that... that..." Tohsaka Rin frowned, wanting to speak but stopping for a moment, stopping talking but wanting to.
Tang Hao thought of her ability to lose control at critical moments and couldn't help but ask, "Don't tell me you don't have any followers!"
"Yes, of course there is, how could it not be!" Rin Tosaka roared with a red face, but she turned her head away in an instant, "But, during the summoning process...there were some accidents, so that now No consensus has been reached yet, so..."
"Hmm~~ That's it." Opposite me, Illya stretched out her index finger and tapped her chin, "Although Rin summoned the servants, he can't join the battle, so even if I let Berserker kill you, it doesn't seem to be interesting. How about we play a game... I don't use berserker, we each fight with magic. If you win, I won't kill you today. If you lose, then, big brother becomes my thing, how about ?”
Illya tilted her head and smiled brightly.
