Abnormal Moon

But if he can defeat her once, he can defeat her a second time.

Even the Mage's Association behind her was powerless against his Reverse Moon Demon Eyes, which could control all spells. Even the Grand-rank mages were as helpless as children.

Roy never took the Magic Association seriously.

and.

Now, Saber, Archer, Lancer, Rider, and Berserker, these five Servants, are all clear.

He knew the identities of the first four riders by heart, and as for Berserker, given Einzbern's strategy and Ilya's words and actions, he would most likely be that great Greek hero, the infamous sea dummy.

A boastful and arrogant image, yet a record of being persecuted time and time again.

In other words, only the Assassin and Caster classes of Servants remain undetermined.

Given Bazett's personality, if the relic she used hadn't changed, he already knew who the Servant she summoned was and what class it was.

Only the last Assassin, whether Master or Servant, remains hidden in the shadows.

But let's speculate from the other side.

Of the seven Master positions, he alone occupies two, Rin Tohsaka and Illya each have one, and the Armored Elder and Bazett share two. The final spot is already obvious.

The Matou family.

The Matou family, one of the three founding families, has yet to react.

If Zouken Matou were still alive, he would definitely be a Master by now.

If he really died a long time ago, then the Greater Grail might choose Matou Sakura, who is far away in Misaki City, or choose someone from the Matou branch family. In any case, this spot will definitely be for someone from the Matou family, without a doubt.

"I'll arrange for someone to track down that Lancer's Master right now. Do you know his name? Or any other information, the more details the better."

Rin Tohsaka planned to use her familiar to contact her secretary at the city hall and ask Roy for information.

She also had some magicians working under her command. If several of them worked together, they could expose the old man's true colors in a day or two at most.

"know."

Roy nodded coldly.

"His name is Jiemon, a magician who has lived for nearly four hundred years."

Chapter 40 Torment

Under the cover of night, everything was as dark as water.

In front of the Aozaki residence, Rin Tohsaka is talking to Ai Hayasaka, probably discussing possible arrangements for what might happen after her death.

"Lord Roy, were you fighting a Servant just now?"

Kasumigaoka Utaha arrived at the gate of the courtyard.

Dozens of meters of the asphalt road outside the door were shattered, and the air was filled with the pungent smell of burning flames.

Such a scene is so out of touch with everyday life that Kasumigaoka Utaha, seeing it for the first time, couldn't help but feel breathless.

"Ah."

Roy nodded.

Kasumigaoka Utaha didn't know what to say.

She already knew the concept of a Servant.

But this was the first time she had ever seen the power of Servants, the destructive force they could unleash. Such destructive power could easily shatter gold and jade.

Roy, who wants to intervene in the battle between Servants, is facing such a chaotic battlefield.

It's really worrying to know how he's safe.

and.

How effective is the Aozaki family's barrier?

Can it withstand the invasion of Servants?

She was really panicking!

"Roy, should we take them both to the city hall?"

Rin Tohsaka then ended her conversation with Ai Hayasaka and walked over with a worried expression.

"The Aozaki family's barrier is top-notch, but it wouldn't be able to withstand a Servant attacking it, would it?"

Ah this.

Kasumigaoka Utaha's heart was pounding.

Hayasaka Ai, who was listening nearby, also felt a chill run down her spine.

If that's the case, then let's go to the city hall!

"Need not."

But to everyone's surprise, Roy shook his head on the spot.

"The Aozaki family's barrier is currently the strongest, far stronger than the city hall. Even if Fuyuki City is destroyed, nothing can happen here."

Kasumigaoka Utaha and Hayasaka Ai listened, completely stunned.

Even if Fuyuki City is destroyed, will the Aozaki family be safe?

That certainly gives you a great sense of security... but is it really true?

"You're really being incredibly arrogant. Do you even know that the city hall's barrier is built on a spiritual vein? What gives you the right to say such things..."

Rin Tohsaka looked at Roy with suspicion.

She knew this was definitely Roy's secret, so she just mentioned it casually and moved on, not expecting Roy to answer.

Roy, of course, didn't intend to answer.

"Rider?"

"No problem, please trust me."

Rider's voice resonated from the depths of my heart.

"I have strengthened the barrier around this mansion. Although it looks like a Nordic rune barrier from the outside, it is actually Chinese magic, which is what Westerners call mind magic. It is not the same concept as Western magic at all. Any Western magician would be completely clueless if they came here. The only way to break through is to force their way through. Once I detect any abnormality in the barrier, I will immediately use earth magic to teleport back, so that nothing will happen to them."

Given Taigong Wang's abilities, since he has said he wouldn't let anything happen to them, it's not Roy's place to worry about it.

"You can rest assured."

Rin Tohsaka reassured the two of them.

"Roy never speaks without reason. Since he's said so, then the Aozaki family is probably the safest place in Fuyuki City. You should try not to leave the house to avoid giving the enemy an opportunity to take advantage of you."

"understood."

Seeing that both men said so, the two women felt relieved and decided to stay quietly at home.

Anyway, they have no connection with this world, and they have plenty of food stored at home. Staying for ten days or half a month before going out again is not a difficult task.

After giving the two some instructions and arranging their work,

Roy and Rin Tohsaka then walked hand in hand out of the city.

…………

Fuyuki City, outside the city walls.

Have you decided on your initial goal?

"Well, of the five corrupted Servants, Bazett chose the corrupted Lancer. We need to choose one from the remaining four."

As Rin Tohsaka walked, she replied, "Of the remaining four corrupted Servants, the one who poses the greatest threat to Fuyuki City is the corrupted Caster, who can summon a large number of sea monsters. He was our initial target!"

It turned out to be the case.

A reasonable choice.

As the mayor of Fuyuki City, Rin Tohsaka's top priority is naturally the survival of Fuyuki City and the safety of its citizens.

"By the way, Tohsaka, do you know your Servant's true name?"

"...That was quite abrupt of your statement."

Rin Tohsaka stopped and looked at him with a subtle expression.

"What, why are you suddenly asking about my Servant? Are you perhaps secretly preparing a strategy to target my Archer?"

"We've known each other for several years, so let me be clear from the start: I have my reasons for having to win this Holy Grail War. So, even if it's you, I won't give up easily. I won't tell you any information that's crucial to victory."

"Oh?"

Roy became somewhat interested.

"The reason why we must win the Holy Grail War? You don't seem to have mentioned it before. Can you tell me? What is your wish?"

"Well, it's not something that needs to be kept secret."

Rin Tohsaka thought for a moment, her expression becoming troubled and gradually darkening.
