Public Executions Start From King Arthur

Chapter 22: Emiya Kiritsugu Takes Action



——VIDEO——

After hearing Saber's words, Lancer chuckles and says: "No, I should feel honored. As long as it transcends space and time, those who are promoted to the Throne of Heroes will not mistake the golden sword."

"I can compete with the world-famous King of Knights, and even make you suffer a little. It seems I have some abilities."

Saber shows a smile: "Do you want to suffer a little?"

Lancer is stunned, suddenly feeling something bad.

Then, he sees Saber suddenly jump to Irisviel's side, and as Lancer is stunned, she places her injured left hand on Irisviel's shoulder.

Suddenly, it seems like some kind of power is influencing. The curse on Saber's wrist disappears instantly, and her wounds are immediately healed.

This scene shocks everyone, even the touched Irisviel.

At the same time, Saber's voice is heard in Irisviel's mind, which is a transmission of Saber's magic power.

'Madam, don't be nervous, I'm just borrowing the power of my scabbard from your body.'

Irisviel is stunned: "Saber, you..."

'Madam, it is indeed my sword scabbard. Isn't it because you can summon me that you use the sword scabbard as its medium? Although I don't know why Master put the scabbard into you, but since he did, there must be a reason.'

'For me, Madam is now my scabbard, and with the help of my scabbard, all my wounds can be healed.'

After saying these words, Saber returns to the shocked Lancer, shakes her healed left hand, and says calmly: "Too bad, Lancer, if you came in your strongest Saber form, then you would still be qualified to fight me. Now that I have found your trump card, the outcome of this battle must be decided."

Lancer's pupils shrink, a drop of cold sweat runs down his face, and a troubled smile appears on his lips: "So, no wonder you suddenly became so reckless. Was it all your plan?"

"You are truly King Arthur. You have the nobility of a knight, and also have the strategy and calmness that a king should have. To get a chance to win, you are not afraid to take risks with your own life. Just like the legend."

Saber raises the invisible sword that has become invisible again, showing her desire to end the battle.

At this moment, Master Lancer speaks again: "Lancer, you are really useless, you are actually easy to see through."

Lancer bows his head and says sincerely: "Sorry, Master, for disappointing you. King Arthur is indeed a very wise and powerful enemy."

Master Lancer: "Hmph, these are really unambitious words. However, if the opponent is King Arthur, it can indeed be forgiven. I didn't expect to see King Arthur in the Holy Grail War. For me, it's also a very good experience."

"Then, Lancer, now I will apply the highest level of strengthening magic to you, and then use this power to defeat the King of Knights and win for me!"

Lancer's eyes light up, and at the same time, powerful strengthening magic envelops his body, emitting a blue halo, and he is also filled with power at the same time.

The Jojo narration sounds at the right time.

[Master Lancer is clearly an unparalleled powerful Mage. He has all the elements of a Mage. He has a comprehensive battle plan and has prepared the highest level of strengthening magic for his Servants in advance]

[Even Servants, with the blessing of this strengthening magic, can get exponential increases in speed, defense, and strength]

As his commentary ends, Lancer's muscles become even stronger in an instant, squeezing his green tights tighter, instantly making the atmosphere hiss.

Seeing this, Saber's smile fades: "It seems it's still a little difficult to determine the winner in a short time."

❀❀❀

In the real world, people have really seen the ability of Mages, and how beneficial Masters are to Servants in the Holy Grail War.

At the Supernatural Disaster Countermeasures Department, Illya can't help but exclaim: "Amazing! King Arthur, it turns out you were just doing this on purpose because you were so reckless. It was all to expose the perverted uncle in tight green clothes! Mhm~"

The following words turn into a murmur, because Irisviel covers Illya's small mouth. The beautiful woman warns Illya: "Illya-chan, you shouldn't say that! It's very rude to call someone perverted or something like that – even though that person is really perverted!"

Everyone: "..."

Madam, we feel that your daughter is inseparable from you in this way.

However, the way most people look at Artoria has also changed, because the girl's statement is true. King Arthur on the light screen really acted like that when she had a mature mind and a complete plan. Everything is to detect the enemy's true and false status, and also has the means to heal herself completely afterwards.

Murata bows his head and looks at the information he just received from the professional logistics team on his phone, with a sudden realization on his face: "So it is, King Arthur's scabbard can heal all wounds. As long as the scabbard is still in hand, King Arthur can't be injured?"

"I thought it was just an exaggeration from the myth of King Arthur, but now I see it, it must be true. However, it's really magic that the sword scabbard can still be put into a human body. Is this also a magic effect?"

Staring and glancing at Artoria, Murata thinks: 'She seems to be very clear about the situation of King Arthur. Is this a residual symptom of last night's possession? Or...she's starting to awaken memories of her previous life as King Arthur.'

No wonder Murata would guess like this. After all, King Arthur herself said it last night. As a result, Artoria starts to awaken memories of her previous life, and it's no wonder that she can see King Arthur's methods.

After all, all the evidence now proves that Artoria and the person on the light screen may be the same person.

However, the speculation only remains in mind, Murata doesn't say anything, and looks at the light screen again.

He feels that there will definitely be new changes in the subsequent battle situation. Because the enemy Master has taken action, as Saber's true Master, Kiritsugu cannot stand idly by.

——VIDEO——

Sure enough, the lens of the light screen changes again and reaches Kiritsugu.

Kiritsugu is now standing on one of the many tall buildings in the port, occupying the high ground and searching for targets with the night vision lens of his sniper rifle.

Wearing a military microphone in his ear, he shows the quality of a professional assassin.

Kiritsugu says through the headset: "Maiya, it seems Saber can't defeat Lancer in a short time. It's our turn to take action."

Maiya hums, then hesitates: "But, Kiritsugu, wouldn't this cause dissatisfaction with the King of Knights? This is just the early stage of the Holy Grail War. If this causes dissatisfaction with her, what happens next will be very detrimental."

Kiritsugu: "Don't worry! Although the King of Knights is a noble, she is also a king who pursues victory. She doesn't mind using some means to achieve victory – she will deal with the Servants, and we will deal with the enemy Master. This way, she will definitely not mind."

Maiya: "Yes, I understand."

As she speaks, Kiritsugu has found his target. The night vision lens shows a figure standing on top of a warehouse: "Master Lancer is standing on the roof of the warehouse. Can you see him?"

The camera switches to Maiya on another overpass. The woman with shoulder-length short hair raises the sniper rifle in her hand to search for it, then puts it down helplessly: "No, it's a blind spot from my position."

Kiritsugu: "I understand, let me kill him."

Therefore, he prepares to shoot Master Lancer directly.

However, at this moment, he suddenly feels something, and immediately turns his sniper rifle and aims it higher to the other side.

There is an elevated top, and there, an old man wearing a gray tunic suit, with short silver hair and no beard, stands there with his hands behind his back.

Although he is standing very high and even being blown by the wind, his body remains motionless, showing the posture of an unshakable expert like a mountain, and his lower body is stable like a rock.

When Kiritsugu sees the old man, the old man also notices him, turns to him, smiles, and nods at him.
