Chapter 99: Whispering and Observing in Secret (Double Monthly Tickets orz)
Diarmuid's indignation was just as Swordsman Matou had expected.
He nodded with satisfaction and continued:
"For this berserker crusade, the church has offered a reward that most Masters cannot refuse, and that is the Command Spell."
Regarding this, Jianchen Jianchen himself was also a little confused.
Although he had watched anime in his previous life, he knew that Tōsaka Tokiomi and Kotomine Riko were in cahoots with each other.
However, why did Tōsaka Tokiomi and Kotomine Risei resort to this trick when they could have directly transferred the Command Seals?
According to the plot, when fighting Bluebeard by the river, Tōsaka Tokiomi hoped that Gilgamesh would take action.
After being rejected by Gilgamesh, he also thought about using the Command Seals to force Gilgamesh to give orders, but because the purpose of defeating the Berserkers was to obtain the Command Seals, and forcing orders would completely break with Gilgamesh, Tōsaka Tokiomi finally gave up.
In that case, why not just ask Kotomine Risho to transfer the Command Seals directly?
Matou Kenshin did not delve into this question, but continued to tell Diarmuid his plan:
"I plan to go to the church tomorrow and ask that incompetent priest, Kotomine Risei, to transfer the Command Seals that should belong to me, and..."
Jian Tong Jianchen hesitated for a while, but chose to speak directly:
"I need your help, Diarmuid, I need you to kill Kotomine Risei!"
The reason why Kenshin Matou did so much preparation was that he was a little worried about Diarmuid.
As a subordinate, he was impeccable, but his chivalry was a bit of a hindrance.
Contrary to Kenshin Matou's expectations, Diarmuid did not react excessively.
He placed his left hand on his chest and bowed his head slightly: "Master, rest assured, Diarmuid will not let you down."
The glory of a knight is just Diarmuid's persistence, not a bondage.
He would not voluntarily attack innocent people, but he would follow orders, not to mention Kotomine Risei who was already his enemy.
"Huh..." Jian Tong Jianchen breathed a sigh of relief.
He began to understand that he was too preconceived.
The hero named Diarmuid is not a fixed program, but a living person with his own thoughts.
"That's good."
Jianchen Jiantong slumped in the chair. After a long while, he stood up and walked to the side of Uncle Liu.
He called Diarmuid over and pointed to the papers on the table, which were filled with information about the heroes of this Holy Grail War.
Just one glance and Diarmuid was stunned.
"This……"
He stared in amazement, somewhat shocked, but also delighted.
He didn't know how his lord obtained such detailed information, but no matter how he looked at it, it was rare good news.
However, the more he looked, the tighter Diarmuid’s brows became.
After the assassin and berserker left the stage one after another, none of the remaining servants were simple characters.
He had already fought against Saber and gained a significant advantage.
However, looking at the information on the paper and Saber's unused treasures and methods, Diarmuid was still secretly shocked.
In addition, the information from other servants was one wave higher than the other, constantly beating on Diarmuid's heart.
He had seen Iskandar's inherent barrier in Einzbern, and honestly speaking, he had no idea how to win the battle against Iskandar.
He originally thought that Iskandar was the biggest opponent in this Holy Grail War.
But when he saw the heroic spirit information highlighted on the paper, his scalp went numb.
{Gilgamesh, the oldest hero king.}
{Possessing the King's Treasure, he can release countless treasures from it.}
{He possesses the Anti-World Noble Phantasm EA, which is the power that can easily kill Iskandar.}
With just a glance, Diarmuid knew that the biggest obstacle to victory in this Holy Grail War was none other than this person. "My Lord..."
"Don't worry," Matou Kenshin predicted what Diarmuid was thinking, "I have already thought of a way to get Gilgamesh out of the game. You are an indispensable part of that plan."
Kenshin Matou hates riddlers the most, but if he himself is the riddler, he will only feel a sense of pleasure.
Diarmuid also hates the Riddler, but if the Riddler is his lord, he can only endure it and there is nothing he can do.
but,
Scanning the information on the paper, Diarmuid already had some guesses in his mind.
Although it was a bit disrespectful, his lord was only eight years old after all, and the probability of him becoming a breakthrough point was almost zero.
Then,
The one who can break through, the one who defeats that daunting heroic spirit...
Diarmuid looked at Uncle Liu who was playing with his cell phone.
Uncle Liu didn't say anything. He was still leisurely, stroking his beard, nodding and laughing from time to time.
'The Emperor Gaozu of Han from the Eastern countries?'
It seems that after becoming a Heroic Spirit, there really are cultural courses in Valhalla.
People in Ireland also have a good understanding of Uncle Liu.
Fortunately, Diarmuid was just thinking about it in his mind and didn't say much, otherwise Swordsman Matou would have been unable to help but complain again.
"Okay, Lancer, I have something else for you to do."
"Please give your orders, my lord."
Diarmuid bowed instinctively and knelt on one knee on the ground.
When he realized that his master didn't speak and wanted to look up, a pair of small hands were placed on his shoulders.
"First of all, this is not about buying people's hearts. I believe in your loyalty Diarmuid."
"Secondly, you don't have to be polite when you answer me in the future. People in our country don't do that. No, Uncle Liu and I don't do that."
"Just be yourself. While the Holy Grail War is still going on, it would be nice to teach me swordplay and spearmanship. Then you'll be half my master. Don't try to lie to me, I know you're very strong with the sword!"
Facing the living hero in front of him, who appeared from mythology into this world.
Jianchen Matou was very respectful and felt as if he was looking at a living fossil.
"My pleasure, my lord."
Diarmuid stood up, but because of his height, he could only look down at Swordsman Matou, which made him feel uncomfortable.
"Okay, let's get down to business first."
Jian Tong Jianchen picked up the Chi Xiao sword from the table and pulled it out suddenly. The sword shone with a cold light and his determined eyes were reflected on the sword.
"I need you to observe Kotomine Kirei's movements tonight, otherwise tomorrow's plan will not be easy to implement."
"This mission is very dangerous, because I am not sure whether Gilgamesh will stay with Kotomine Kirei, so..."
Jian Tong Jian Chen turned around, knelt down, crawled, and hugged Uncle Liu's thigh:
"Ancestors~"
The corners of Uncle Liu's mouth twitched slightly. Although he had been served very comfortably these days,
But who is Uncle Liu?
He totally ignored this favor.
"Okay." Uncle Liu put the phone back into his pocket.
He liked Jianchen Jianchen very much, so he was willing to help.
