Rebirth of Japan's Sekiro Legacy

Chapter 456 The problem of alliance

The priest is getting closer and closer to the capsule hotel.

He set up a simple barrier to drive people away, and no one would pass through this street for at least 10 minutes.

According to his judgment, his son Kotomine Kirei was ambushed when Hassan Baimao went out to collect information.

This shows that the opponent's strength is far above Kotomine Kirei.

Although angry, he didn't come here for revenge.

Instead, he came here to make peace.

——The Holy Grail cannot fall into the hands of those with evil intentions.

So now he is bound to win over the other party.

Now that Kotomine Kirei is dead, the Holy Grail will re-select the master candidate.

And this candidate has a high probability of being selected.

Because apart from the Holy Grail, the priest really couldn't figure out the reason why the other party killed his son.

More importantly, the heroic spirits of the Assassin job agency have the best ability to obtain information.

Obtaining information, creating false appearances... these are all part of the plan.

Without the Assassin, the plan will become difficult to implement, and the chance of getting the Holy Grail will be much smaller.

So he decided to join forces with the murderer who killed his son.

——It’s all about getting the Holy Grail, realizing the path to the root.

It is worth paying any price for this wish.

As for how to negotiate peace, he has also thought about it.

The summoning of the Holy Grail requires the souls of at least five servants, which means that this condition can be used to lure the other party to join forces.

He thought through the whole process.

First observe the other party's understanding of the Holy Grail, and then promise to "share the Holy Grail" according to the situation, lure the other party to join your subordinates, and then kill them after exploiting their value...

After all, who wouldn't want the Holy Grail?

A competitive situation is formed among the seven masters, and there are strong and weak servant masters, and in the end it is bound to be the winner.

Before that, if you can join forces with a powerful master and his heroic spirit, then the chances of winning will be greatly improved.

After all, they still possess the oldest trump card of mankind.

This is a very tempting offer, and no reasonable person would easily refuse it.

The breeze floated, and at this moment, a subtle sound of breaking through the sky came.

The pitch-black flying knife quickly approached from behind the priest.

The moment it was about to touch the back of the priest's neck, some unknown force bounced it away.

The flying knife made a tragic sound of breaking in the air, and clanged to the ground.

"Who!?" The priest turned his head sharply.

In the blink of an eye, a "black key" appeared in his hand.

There are three sticks in the left hand and three sticks in the right hand. The dress generated by magic can exert great destructive power.

The priest did not expect that he would be attacked unexpectedly.

One of the rules of the Holy Grail War is that only masters can fight.

As the supervisor of the war, the Church of the Holy Church will not easily intervene.

Although the priest has been involved, he is still neutral on the surface.

If necessary, the Church of the Holy Church, as a neutral faction, will even protect the Masters who voluntarily give up participating in the war and those Masters who want to live because of the death of the heroic spirit.

The other Masters know the rules and will not attack the Church of the Holy Church.

The identity of the attacker is then obvious.

"That is to say, not only did you kill my son, but now you want to kill me?" The priest's expression was distorted like a ghost.

Several throwing knives flew again in the darkness, and the priest swung the black key with a sharp movement, knocking out these flying props.

But there was a trace of uneasiness in his heart.

Because he couldn't determine the location of the other party.

I can't feel any fluctuations, I can't even feel a trace of extra breath...

This made him realize that the other party might have summoned a servant.

After all, only the Heroic Spirits of the Assassin job agency can do this.

But this strengthened his determination to form an alliance with the other party.

"I'm not hostile!" the priest shouted on the deserted road. "I'm here to negotiate!"

He was always facing the direction of the flying knives. Although he could not determine the approximate location, if the opponent launched an attack, he still had time to react.

Suddenly he heard the sound of a blade piercing his body.

The priest was taken aback for a moment, then looked down at his chest.

The dagger pierced his heart, and blood soaked the white shirt under the teaching uniform.

"There is no need for negotiation." Jing Mi whispered, "The order from the master is to deal with the intruder."

"What... what?" The priest opened his eyes unwillingly.

The flying knife clearly came from directly in front of him, but the attack came from behind...

This level of agility...is higher than that of an ordinary Assassin!

"Ugh..."

The priest was still thinking about dying.

But his physical function is far worse than when he was young.

Quiet hands climbed onto his neck.

"In this way, your magic dress will not be able to protect you." Jing Mi said, "I'm sorry, I will kill you."

With the blade drawn out, the priest's body slowly collapsed to the ground.

Blood loss and toxins quickly took his life.

The priest never thought that the other party had no intention of negotiating, and directly sent servants to obliterate the intruder...

How crazy?

Is this person so confident in his own strength that he wants to defeat all the enemies one by one?
At this moment the priest realized that he was wrong.

He had expected the man to at least be able to communicate.

But in essence the other party seems to be a paranoid monster.

Not to mention meeting each other, I didn't even give them a chance to communicate.

Obviously, he has already given the signal that he has no intention of fighting.

But the other party's orders to the followers were directly obliterated.

The priest thought so at the last moment of consciousness.

Could this guy be a lunatic...?
... * ...

"The mission is completed, Master, the intruders have been eliminated."

In the room, Jing Jing looked at Arakawa and reported the situation.

"Really, thank you for your hard work, how is the opponent's strength?"

"The other party is the representative of the Church of the Holy Church, which is very strong for ordinary magicians."

"I understand. In other words, is the other party here for revenge?"

"No." Jing Mi shook her head, "The other party is here to negotiate."

"Negotiation?" Arakawa was taken aback.

"The other party set up a people-repelling barrier on the way here, without any concealment. This is one of the ways magicians make an appointment to meet, and the other party came alone, I am afraid... to prove their sincerity?"

Nozomi Arakawa was dumbfounded.

"Didn't you say this earlier?"

"Although it was an invitation to meet, there are many cases where they were killed under the guise of this."

Jing Jing lowered her head and said.

She seemed to realize her mistake.

This kind of matter should be left to the master to judge, not a mere follower.

"Forget it, it doesn't matter, but let's not take it as an example."

Things have already happened, and it's useless to struggle with them.

And it's hard to ask for your own opinion in that situation.

But Nozomi Arakawa thought of a key question at this time.

According to information from Lord El-Melloi.

The last heroic spirits are Saber and Archer.

It's time to make a choice.

Should you fight alone, or choose to form an alliance with others.

If you want to form an alliance, who would be better to choose?
Will the other party accept you?
