Chapter 146
During this banquet for kings, Ye Yichen still noticed something unusual.
That is, Jin Shanshan stopped teasing the king.
You know, in the original work, this guy had intentions towards the king.
So……He felt that Jin Shanshan suddenly looked very pleasing to the eye.
Of course, Jin Shanshan also noticed his gaze that seemed to be looking at a friend.
This also made Jin Shanshan feel more subtle.
He seemed to find Ye Yichen more pleasing to the eye.
Not long after, Mrs. Elly and Waver noticed that the atmosphere around them was different. Although they could not see the body or hear the sound, the strong murderous intent made the temperature of the skin drop by several degrees.
White strange objects appeared in the atrium under the moonlight. Pale faces appeared one after another like flowers blooming in the darkness of”two two three”, and their colors were as cold and hard as dry bones.
They were skull masks, and their bodies were still wrapped in black robes. The black-clad groups in strange costumes gathered one after another, and the seven people in the atrium had already been surrounded.
Assassin…
The King of Conquerors and Waver were not the only ones who knew that Assassin was still alive. My king and Mrs. Elly also heard Kiritsugu say that he had witnessed Assassin in the warehouse street.
The assassins in this Holy Grail War are not just the one who was defeated on the first day at the Yuji family, but there are many Assassins and. This fact itself is quite strange, but the number of people in front of us can only be described as abnormal. Although everyone is wearing a mask and a black robe, everyone’s physique is different in many ways. There are tall giants, slender skinny people, people who are short like children, and graceful women.
“……Is this what you were thinking, Gilgamesh?”
The King of Conquerors asked unhappily. Gilgamesh, on the other hand, looked clueless and shrugged.
“Who knows. I will not care what the random cultivators are thinking.”
Although he responded casually, Gilgamesh couldn’t help but feel disappointed at the development of the situation.
Such a large-scale mobilization of Assassins must not be an arbitrary action of Kotomine Kirei alone, but also the instruction of his teacher, Tokiomi.
Tokiomi has always been extremely humble to the King of Heroes, and Gilgamesh also recognized him as his summoner. However, he was almost completely disappointed with Tokiomi’s boring strategy. It was indeed the King of Conquerors who set up this banquet, but it was Gilgamesh who provided the drinks. What on earth was Tokiomi thinking that he sent assassins to this banquet. Did he know that this behavior indirectly denigrated the character of the King of Heroes?
“This… this is simply too ridiculous!”
Waver was shocked by the enemy figures that appeared one after another, and cried out in a voice that was almost like a wail. Just as he said, according to the rules of the Holy Grail War, the current situation was obviously unreasonable.
“What on earth is going on? Why are they all Assassins and why are they appearing one after another… Isn’t there a limit to which one person can be a member of each class, regardless of the spirit?
Seeing the miserable state of their prey, the Assassins gathered together and laughed softly.
“——Exactly. We are the spirit that becomes the single from the many, but we are also the shadow that becomes the many from the single.”
“”Could it be that… we have been under surveillance by these guys until now?”
Mrs. Ellie muttered angrily. Even my king couldn’t help but feel a chill in the face of the situation. Although the enemy is weak, they are assassins who approach silently, and there are too many of them to be fully grasped. Even if her combat power is said to be the strongest among the seven spirits, they are still a threat that is difficult to deal with.
Moreover, under normal circumstances, they should only lurk in the dark, but now they have abandoned their ability to conceal their breath and boldly appeared in front of everyone. What this means is…——
“They want to fight to the death!”
The king gnashed his teeth at the unexpected predicament.
No matter how many people they had, they were just a mob……..
If the king fights head-on, there is no way he will lose.
But that is when the king fights them alone…
I originally wanted to protect him by letting Mrs.
Elly stay by my side, but now it has become a fatal weakness.
Even if Assassin can withstand a single blow, this is based on the standard of the spirits.
For ordinary people, they are still very dangerous.
Although Mrs.
Elly is an artificial life form of Einzbern and can use superb magic, she cannot fight against the spirits alone.
Facing Assassin’s attack, she cannot protect herself by herself.
However, when fighting while protecting the defenseless companions behind him, the difference in the number of people on both sides is an extremely important limiting factor.
How many Assassins can the king block with a single sword? No, it is meaningless even if he blocks more of them. As long as there is a fish that slips through the net, that person may cause fatal damage to Mrs. Elly.
In other words, if you want to ask whether you can stop them, it depends entirely on whether you can stop all of them with one blow. However, the number of Assassins surrounding them is so large that it makes people feel desperate.
But from Assassin’s perspective, this tactic can be said to be their last resort. Even if 5.6 can adopt the human wave tactic, they are, after all, split from a limited main body. The way of winning by sacrificing the majority of people and relying on a few survivors is no different from suicide. If it is not the final battle, it is impossible to use such a desperate fighting method.
Assassin himself is also a servant who responds to the call in the hope of obtaining the Holy Grail. Of course, he cannot accept that he has become a discarded pawn that allows Tokiomi and Gilgamesh to win – but at the same time he cannot disobey the Command Seal.
For the attack tonight, Kotomine Kirei consumed a Command Seal to order them to win regardless of sacrifice. For the servants, the power of the Command Seal is absolute. In this way, Assassin can only risk it and complete the order to achieve his goal..
