Chapter 284: Kirei Kotomine is impossible to stop
Whether Saber, Irisviel, or Scheherazade thought about his answer to how to achieve world peace, and as expected, they agreed that this might be the perfect method to achieve world peace.
Especially when it was compared to killing all living beings or erasing all the emotions of mankind.
The only problem was whether there was even an existence that could make the world unite to erase this threat.
Moreover, due to this method, there was no way for the people not to suffer.
In the end, the so-called perfect method didn't exist.
When one was happy, the other was naturally unhappy.
When one thought this was the most suitable method, the other thought that it was a lunatic method.
So, in the end, they stopped thinking about this matter since they knew it was meaningless, especially when none of them wished for the word peace.
However, it was different for Kotomine Kirei.
Kirei stood at the ruined church where he was living and served as a priest in this city.
While this church was a little gloomy, it was still a nice and comfortable place, yet everything was destroyed.
Kiritsugu had bombed this place and killed his father, Kotomine Risei.
Frankly, last night whether Risei, Kirei, or Tokiomi Tohsaka were discussed to erase Kiritsugu as the Master in this Holy Grail.
Why?
Because Kiritsugu's action might reveal the existence of the Holy Grail.
The Holy Grail needed to be done in secret.
No one should know about it, yet Kiritsugu did a big job of bombing two high-rise buildings and killing hundreds of people.
If someone like this can't be stopped, then who should?
Probably, the original Uryuu Ryuunosuke might be better since the number of people that he killed might be less than Kiritgusu.
Though, Kiritsugu might snipe or bomb those people who tried to compare him with Uryuu.
Nevertheless, the action of Kiritsugu might expose the Holy Grail, so they thought to gather all the Masters to take down Kiritsugu together, and the one who could take down Kiritsugu would get the Command Spells which were kept by Kotomine Risei.
The three of them worked together and would use this quest as a way for Risei to legitimately add Command Spells to Tokiomi.
Unfortunately, before they could set up this plan, Kiritsugu was bombed.
However, fortunately, Kiritsugu was killed by the police forces with an encirclement.
Nevertheless, after the police had taken down Kiritsigu, they quickly contacted Kirei, who was the son of Risei.
"I am sorry. Kiritsugu is so vicious. However, you don't need to worry since we have taken down this terrorist."
However, Kirei didn't say anything and just looked at the mingled corpse of his father in silence.
The others thought that Kirei was in shock, so they quietly stepped away and gave him time to calm down.
Kirei kept staring at the corpse of his father and didn't say anything.
While everyone thought that he felt sad and was too shocked by this tragedy, Kirei was rather calm. He didn't feel anything. It was as if the person who had died in front of him was nothing but a stranger, yet at the same time; it also broke the guise of his heart. It was as if the limiter that stopped all the malice in his heart was no longer there.
"Excuse me, can I see Kiritsugu's corpse?"
While the police hesitated when they heard Kirei's request, in the end, they agreed since they knew Kiritsugu had killed Kirei's father, so it was normal for him to have such a request. Frankly, they shouldn't agree since it might cause a lot of trouble, but Kirei used hypnosis, so he could quickly meet Kiritsugu's corpse.
Under the guidance of the police, Kirei saw Kiritsugu's corpse. His body was riddled with bullets, and his expression was filled with regret, unwillingness, and shaking.
Watching this expression, Kirei couldn't help but giggle and laugh. Fortunately, he was alone, or else everyone would think of him as a lunatic. Yet, watching the dying expression of Kiritsugu, he felt so much fun!
It was so much fun!
'Oh, Lord... why do you make me so sinful?'
Kirei felt that he couldn't control this happiness that was born from the bottom of his heart anymore.
He knew that by now, it was impossible for him to suppress this evilness.
Still, at the same time, he felt regret since he didn't follow Assassin's advice to kill Kiritsugu.
If he followed that advice, then he wondered how delightful it was when he saw the despair on Kiritsugu's face.
Unfortunately, it was too late.
Yet, at the same time, it wasn't too late.
Kirei had realized his inner self, and he also started to embrace it. He knew that he was a degenerate, so he might as well enjoy it, especially when his father had passed away.
With this understanding, he knew that there was one thing that he needed to do.
He walked out of the police station, then communicated with Tokiomi about his father's death.
"I see... that's a shame. You should get some rest, Kirei."
Tokiomi said those words with some regret and kindness, yet the truth? Who could tell?
"Yes, teacher."
However, Kirei didn't care and continued to walk to his hiding place.
As expected, there he saw a familiar figure.
"Oh, Kirei? Is it only me, or have you met something happy?"
Gilgamesh asked curiously since Kirei's face was like a child that was about to go to an amusement park with his parents.
"Yes, I am really happy."
Kirei took a wine actively and poured it into the glass by himself before he drank it, feeling addicted and intoxicated, feeling the taste of the wine today was even more delicious.
Meanwhile, Gilgamesh laughed since he knew Kirei was so much fun!
So, the two of them drank their wines and started their secret plan.
Nevertheless, Assassin, who had been silent, communicated with each other and made up their minds to change their master tonight.
---
As expected, the death of Kiritsugu was known by all the Masters of this Holy Grail.
Berserker's Master, Kariya Matou, didn't care since he had never had much interest in Kiritsugu. His only purpose was to make Tokiomi regret his decision to throw Sakura away.
Only Weber Velvet and Kayneth El-Melloi had a reaction, but while the former sighed, the latter snorted and felt schadenfreude at Kiritsugu's tragedy.
Still, no matter what, it was good that Kiritsugu had died since this person was nothing but a troublemaker, especially in his bombing act.
However, they knew that even though Kiritsugu had been eliminated, the change Saber eliminated was almost zero since, by Saber's side, Einzbern's homunculus, Irisviel, was there.
The only problem was Caster since the identity of this servant was still a mystery until now.
Still, they didn't know Tamazuki had targeted them and he was going to take them down slowly, one by one. However, at noon, when he was resting at his shadow place, he saw a notice at one of his houses.
"Hmm? Aoi?"
One of the water-like screens on midair, he saw the picture of Aoi Tohsaka standing in front of one of his houses, seemingly nervous and uneasy, yet... also excited?
"........."
Tamazuki didn't expect this housewife to come to visit him, but it was good, right?
