Fuyuki City Shinto - This residential area east of the Toto River was originally a new town built by developing wilderness during a period of high growth. Although it was not planned as a mountain town with a deep sense of history at the time,

However, Fuyuki City is facing a large-scale redevelopment action as the government and the public plan to use the state-owned railway ruins to build a modern commercial street.

Although 40% of the buildings that will become commercial streets are still unfinished, the park and shopping mall in front of the station are about to open. The new city that will be built will be clean and pale, gorgeous but without personality.

The appearance of the city has appeared. The city has gradually moved to the new capital, and steel bars, glass and paint have also been combined into various modern buildings. The urban functions of this mountainous city are gradually being forced to change.

Kiritani Kazuto and his current master, Emiya Kiritsugu, were walking side by side in the commercial street of Fuyuki City. Emiya Kiritsugu was still wearing his black windbreaker, and Kirito put on the Dark Night as soon as he got on the plane.

He took off his robe and changed into ordinary casual clothes. He never cared about his own clothes and didn't care about his clothes at all.

"Kirito, what do you think of what happened last night?" After the two people, who had been silent since getting off the plane, walked for a short distance, Emiya Kiritsugu spoke first, looking at Kirito with a hint of questioning in his eyes.

"It's weird." Kirito looked at the scenery of the surrounding streets in confusion, without looking at Emiya Kiritsugu, and replied.

Speaking of which, since he had a good relationship with Illya, Emiya Kiritsugu's eyes when he looked at him were no longer as indifferent as before, as if he were looking at a tool. Instead, he had some emotions that humans should have.

He called himself Kirito, although his tone was still stiff.

His attitude toward me changed, but when he looked at Saber, he once again turned into a look that seemed to be disgusting.

"Any idea?"

"Yes." Kirito responded affirmatively, recalling in his mind the battle he saw last night under the surveillance of his familiar. The golden king shining in the dark night instantly killed Tohsaka who was about to sneak attack.

The golden light emitted by the golden wall behind me directly killed Assassin. Then he pinched the thin hair hanging between his eyebrows and said: "Assassin is a heroic spirit whose main ability is to assassinate. He has a breath concealment.

He already had a natural advantage, but that shiny guy seemed to have known in advance that Assassin would come back to attack, and also seemed to have known that he would attack from that direction, and prepared an ambush, as if he had already prepared it.

The script is the same.”

"Sure enough, it's just as I thought, but doesn't this mean that Assassin's master has given up his servants?"

At this time, Kirito finally turned his head to face Emiya Kiritsugu's doubtful eyes and said, "I don't know the 'Old Man of the Mountain' organization, but I discovered that the assassin did not return to the heroic spirit after his death.

It's weird that the body is still there."

"The corpse should be after the death of a heroic spirit..." Emiya Kiritsugu was stuck in mid-sentence, his pupils slightly widened, as if he thought of something that might happen.

"You once said that heroic souls will return to the Hall of Valor after their souls are destroyed. However, the body of the Assassin remains in the same place after death. The only explanation is that that person is not the Assassin."

"How is this possible? That costume is undoubtedly unique to Assassin, there is no way there will be a second person!" Emiya Kiritsugu's tone seemed a little excited at this time, and his slightly frowned brows made him look at it.

He seemed to have a calm and authoritative presence.

"That's what I want to say. Perhaps, this Assassin's existence has the ability to create clones."

Kirito seemed to be close to the truth, leaving Emiya Kiritsugu speechless. After all impossible possibilities were eliminated, the last remaining possibility, no matter how impossible, was the fact.

After telling the truth, the two walked silently on the street again. After walking a block, Emiya Kiritsugu spoke again: "I'm going to meet someone later. You go back to Alice."

There."

"Don't you need my protection?" Kirito asked with a frown. If Kiritsugu accidentally died due to a sneak attack, he would be very troubled. Although he has EX level solo action and his abilities are basically the same.

It was related to sword skills, and there were not many places where magic power was used, but the death of the master would eventually have some impact on him, so he couldn't help but ask.

"No one will notice that I'm back here yet. You and Saber just need to protect Alice." The person Emiya Kiritsugu was going to meet next was a woman. The place he chose to meet always felt like it would be a little unreasonable for Kirito.

I can't say, although I don't know Kirito's true age, but that baby face that looks younger than 18 years old really makes him embarrassed to take him to that kind of place, so he can't help but stop him.

The other party should continue to go with you.

"I understand. I can't tell that you still love your wife very much." Kirito said with a smile. He also has a wife. Although she exists in the virtual world, she is already his favorite in his heart.

A woman worthy of guarding her for the rest of his life - Asuna.

"Then see you here." Kirito said and walked to the opposite street. His goal was a dock by the river, where there were fluctuations in magic power and a strong will to fight.

Emiya Kiritsugu looked at the direction Kirito left indifferently and silently. When he knew that the slightly thin figure disappeared at the corner of the street, he looked away. Then he walked to a convenience store on the street and bought a drug to quit smoking.

After nine years of smoking, he bought a disposable lighter. It's not that he doesn't like smoking, but because there are no cigarettes he likes to smoke in the city of Einzbern, and because he is afraid of affecting the health of his wife and daughter.

Put a cigarette into your mouth, light it, quit smoking for nearly ten years, but now these actions are done in one go. Quietly inhaling the calming aroma, the taste is as familiar and intimate as if you just tasted it yesterday.

Kirito used his motor nerves and jumping ability that ordinary people can't do to jump and shuttle from high-rise building to high-rise building. His whole person seemed to have turned into a ghost in the night. The casual clothes he was wearing just now turned into the clothes he usually wears.

The Robe of Dark Night, the Robe of Dark Night itself does not have very high defense. As long as it is strong against magic power, it can be said to be completely useless against physical attacks. However, it is very warm and light. For someone with strong agility and reflexes, it is completely useless.

It's quite suitable.

Carrying the Interpreter on his back, he didn't plan to use the Dark Chaser yet. After all, it was good to keep one hand alive. Only Saber, Irisviel and Emiya Kiritsugu knew how to use the Two-Sword Style.

The faint dusk gradually disappeared as the sun was about to set in the west, and the darkness of the night began to cover the sky.

Even if it takes two hours to reach the riverside warehouse by express train, Kirito only took half an hour to arrive. This was because he was afraid that if he arrived too early, it would still be dark, and there would be a fierce fight between the heroic spirits.

It's hard to say it doesn't attract attention.

"Since your Excellency is here, come out and see me." The owner of the voice seemed to know Kirito's arrival, and his tone full of invitation let Kirito know that there was no point in hiding now, so he moved to the middle of the warehouse.

of open space.

The owner of the voice is an extremely handsome young man, and there is a mole full of temptation in the corner of his eye. If this mole grows on a woman, it will definitely be a beauty mole, but if it grows on a man...disgusting

, wrong, just the opposite. The score given to this handsome young man has increased again. A woman who is not strong-willed enough will definitely fall in love with this man unconditionally.

Both hands held two guns of different lengths, one red and one yellow. The short yellow gun was only one-third as long as the red one. The strange thing was that both guns were covered with purple sealing runes. The owner of the guns seemed not to want to

Let people see the origin of these two guns.

The existence of the gun told Kirito the identity of the other party. He was a lancer, one of the three knights. He was the most agile class among the seven classes, but his luck was a bit terrible.

"I've been waiting here for a long time, and you're the first... eh!" The Lancer opened his long-awaited eyes. He thought that what he saw would be a majestic man holding his own treasure in his hand.

He was a powerful heroic spirit, but the person standing in front of him turned out to be a very average-looking boy, who even looked like a girl. Judging from his baby face, he should be underage.

"Are you Saber?" I originally thought that the other party was in the wrong place, but after Lancer saw the black one-handed straight sword carried behind Kirito's back, words of astonishment came out of his thin, womanly lips.

.

"Kazuto Kiritani, this is my real name, but I prefer others to call me Kirito. You can just call me Kirito." Kiritani Kazuto scratched his head and said with a slight blush.

He has always disliked this face. When he and his sister Suguha went out shopping, they were often thought to be a pair of sisters. This is why he chose to change his face shape before 'Sword Art Online' became a death game.

.

Suppressed by Kirito's courage to directly tell his real name, Lancer's expression was slightly startled, and then he showed a natural smile and said: "Since you have already said your real name, then I

Don't underestimate yourself, my real name is..." Lancer will not think that Kirito is lying to him, because heroic spirits have their own arrogance. Since it is his own name, it must be his, and he cannot randomly name other heroes.

name.

Just when Lancer was about to say his name, the words froze on his lips, his face became extremely ugly, and then he raised his head and shouted: "My Lord, I just want to fulfill the obligations of a knight."

You are so polite, can you even do this..." Lancer's face looked like he was humiliated, and his body was trembling, as if he was holding back something.

However, Lancer's shouts did not receive any response. Except for the sound of the river next to the warehouse and the sound of the sea breeze, there was total silence.

"Sorry, my Lord does not allow me to tell my real name." Lancer's face showed an expression of annoyance and shame, and he spoke as if he had been humiliated.

"It doesn't matter, I don't understand the etiquette of your knights, so you don't have to worry too much, we just need to enjoy the battle later." Kirito said with a smile, not caring at all about the awkward atmosphere caused by ER.

"Understood, Kirito-dono, I will do my best. On the contrary, please don't hold back." Lancer made a knight's salute, then put the red long spear on his shoulder, and pointed the yellow short spear directly at Kirito.

"My friends all call me Kirito, so you can just call me Kirito, and the word "sir" will be omitted." Kirito felt embarrassed after being called "sir" by the other party several times.

"I understand, Kirito, then..." Lancer lowered his body slightly. "Is it going to be okay?"

"Everything is OK." After Kirito set up the starting position of the horizontal square slash, the one-handed sword that was supposed to have the system effect shining brightly was still dark. The system was no longer there, but the method of using the sword skill was like a brand.

in mind.

In the next moment, both figures disappeared from the place. When they reappeared, the weapons in their hands had been joined together, and the light that could illuminate the night shone in Warehouse Street.

With the sound of swords and halberds, black figures and green figures kept flashing on Warehouse Street. Occasionally, the strong wind caused by the collision of weapons cut the ground, and just a simple hand-to-hand combat completely destroyed the whole place.

The street was destroyed.

The Lancer smoothly waved his guns and pushed Kirito back step by step. It seemed like he had the upper hand in the battle, but the Lancer involved was secretly complaining in his heart.

Although it may seem to outsiders that Kirito has been being suppressed and beaten, Lancer knows that the opponent is not using all his strength at all. He can attack and dodge at will to avoid his own attack.

This is no longer a technical victory, it is simply that the fighting instinct has been completely integrated into the body.

This is already very close to the state of returning to nature. A state that a martial artist could never pursue in his life was reached by this boy who looked like a high school student. This is so embarrassing for a Lancer who has been pursuing martial arts all his life.

Basically, Lancer was attacking, while Kirito was defending, with no intention of attacking at all. Lancer, feeling that this was not the way to go, had to stop and continue attacking, and jumped more than ten meters away to increase the distance.

By that time, Warehouse Street had long been devastated, and the containers were all scratched out by swords and guns.

"This is...a battle between servants..."

The Masters who watched this battle in secret all felt threatened and horrified. Just hand-to-hand combat would destroy half the street. Kenneth felt that his understanding of Servants was still too shallow.
