TM : [196] Executor
🕑 Added 2023-12-18 16:03:01 +0000 UTC"Colin Kidd..." Priest Neil Edington looked at the photo in his hand.
"Yes, he's a Dead Apostle who has lived for a hundred years, evading the pursuit of the Church for a century, and also your ladder to promotion."
"The Burial Agency..." Neil Edington's eyes flickered slightly.
"Ah... You still have a long way to go for that... No, a very long way," Father Ambrose Conant shook his head. "But... this can be considered as furthering your 'holiness.'"
The Burial Agency.
This could be said to be the organization gathering the strongest forces of the entire Church.
Everyone has the ability to fight against high-ranking Dead Apostles, with a total of eight members.
Seven official members and one substitute member.
In the Mage's Association, perhaps only the 'squad' led by Barthomeloi Lorelei could be compared with them.
"I understand," Neil Edington nodded.
In the field of burial agency, it's something only a few people would choose—Holy Corpus.
Transforming one's body into a mechanical entity.
Most people... even went as far as transforming more than nine-tenths of their bodies into such.
Even so, it was still impossible to reach that realm.
No matter how hard a typical inquisitors tried, it was still within the scope of human abilities. However, those in the Burial Agency undoubtedly surpassed humanity.
...
"The moves just now, are you a human?" Diarmuid looked at the priest in front of him, frowning.
He was prepared to cut off the priest's neck himself, but the priest's body dodged in a very awkward posture, leaving wounds that couldn't heal on him.
It still surprised him a bit.
"After all, the enemy is a Dead Apostle. Without making such modifications, how is it possible..." The priest's body was already mostly mechanized.
It's not a matter of the more, the stronger. It mainly depends on a person's talent. His body was thirty percent mechanical, but he estimated that he could advance further now.
Advance once again... to hunt down more Dead Apostle!
To hunt down the undead that killed his family.
That's his goal, his wish—
But...
This servant...
Even if it's a weakened version, it's still an existence he can't deal with.
Escape is also impossible.
But—even if he dies, he will take that Dead Apostle with him—
Swish—
The next moment, several hilt handles appeared in his hand, and the next moment, blades appeared on the hilts. These were their basic weapons as Executor—Black Keys.
The Black Keys danced—
He ignored the attack from the Executor and went straight for the Dead Apostle—
"How could I let you succeed!" Lancer swung his spear to clear the Black Keys, and after that, he threw his red magic spear accurately at him—piercing his heart.
But...
The attack had already been launched.
"What is this—" The Dead Apostle was slightly stunned, one hand inserted into his chest, and the next moment—exploded. Countless holy water sprayed all over him.
"Ahhhh—!!"
"Master—!"
"It's really... lucky..." The priest with his heart pierced made his final sound.
...
Kazuya felt quite surprised.
He didn't expect the Lord of the Department of Policies to meet him.
This surprised them a lot, especially considering the answers he saw from Mevis' heart.
She just said it casually.
So, why did she want to see him now?
He has already joined the Clock Tower, but there is still one procedure left.
That is evaluation.
His magic circuits can't even be a low-level magus, and he can't write a thesis at all.
But according to Mevis's words, he should be able to be evaluated as a "Fes."
This is because of his Mystic Eyes.
However, this evaluation also takes a lot of time.
The evaluation for "Fes" depends on different requirements.
For example, if it's a tuner, it requires the effect of enhancing the effects of magic inscriptions to reach a certain level, or how many magic circuits have been repaired. Judgments are made based on these criteria.
If it is a user of the Mystic Code, it is only necessary to determine the effect and utility of this Mystic Code.
For someone like Waver Velvet, it requires evaluating how many students he has taught who have achieved Fes or higher.
And—
The evaluation for Mystic Eyes is very simple.
That is the level.
As long as it reaches the level of Noble Color, it can be evaluated as a Fes.
It seems simple? But in fact, within the Clock Tower, Mystic Eyes at the level of "Gold" can already be sealed at will.
When—referring to those who have no power behind them.
However, he did not expect that the Lord, Barthomeloi Lorelei, would want to see him. It could be seen that even Mevis was surprised.
Opening the door, he came to the girl with chestnut hair.
The girl turned her head, looking at him. "So, you're Kurokawa Kazuya, right?"
"Yes, what's the matter?"
The girl raised the manga in her hand.
"Fate/Zero."
"Continue drawing the sequel. Even if it's the information given to you by Zelretch, you can still come up with the rest yourself, right? Continue drawing, the first time, the seventh time, the eighth time. Like that."
Kazuya was a bit dumbfounded.
"That... do you mean you like this manga? You want me to draw the rest?"
"Ah, yes, that's right."
She casually nodded. "Alright, I don't have that much time to wait. Go on and draw for me. Let's stop here for today."
Without asking for his opinion, she unilaterally declared it.
This kind of statement can be described as completely looking down on someone.
Anyone who hears someone speak to them like this cannot possibly feel comfortable. But—she is not a Dead Apostle, and her status in the Clock Tower is quite high, and her personal strength is comparable to that of a Servant.
So...
Well, forget it. Bear with it and draw a couple more manga pages to vent.
"By the way, I heard that with your Mystic Eyes, you should be evaluated as a Fes. I agree with that. Mevis, just say it's my will, no need for any assessment."
"Yes, I understand," Mevis nodded.
Kazuya suddenly felt something in his heart, as if there was a certain feeling. He turned around and said, "Could it be that you're a fan of mine?"
"Huh? What are you talking about? I didn't hear clearly just now."
Although she seemed angry, there was a look in her eyes—Kazuya had seen the answer to her soul.
"YES! YES! YES! YES! YES!"
His mood changed in an instant...
