Chapter 1397 Beginning

Along with the sunset, the night came quite soon.

When the entire sky turned dark, Raikou and Chiron, who had been scouting the city, also returned. Moreover, both of them brought very important information.

"Did you find the person from Yggdmillennia that was sent to meet Assassin?"

Fiore looked at Chiron in surprise.

In response, Chiron nodded and spoke with a serious expression.

"Because Berserker said that there was a special smell nearby, I checked around and finally found those people."

Hearing this, Haru looked at Raikou.

Noticing Haru's gaze, Raikou nodded her head with a serious expression.

"There is a smell that is similar to a ghost or a monster in that area, others may not be able to detect it, but I am used to it."

After all, Raikou was known as the strongest Mystery Slayer of the Heian period who destroyed many monstrosities.

"It might be a monster, undead, or a ghost, but in that area, there is a strong smell of resentment, and it has become a curse itself."

Because of the smell, Raikou informed Chiron who owned Clairvoyance, and asked him to occupy the high places and searched the source of that smell.

In the end, two of them found a lot of bodies buried under the building materials on the construction site.

Those corpses should be thrown casually." Chiron's expression was quite heavy and said, "Those bodies have been chopped up into several parts and the heart and brain of those bodies also have disappeared."

In other words, all the people that had been sent by Yggdmillennia had been killed by Assassin.

"Master, we have to stop Assassin," Chiron said with a serious expression.

Fiore nodded with a frown.

If Assassin had really killed everyone that had been sent by Yggdmillennia along with those people that had been found on the alley then sooner or later, there would be a huge riot in Bucharest, no, even in this country.

The existence of Magecraft needed to be hidden from the normal people, whether it was Yggdmillennia or Clock Tower needed to find a solution to stop Assassin, especially Yggdmillennia since the Assassin was coming from Black Faction.

If Black Faction didn't deal with this situation in a hurry then the Red Faction might use this chance to do something unfavorable to Black Faction which might lose their loss in the Holy Grail war.

"Master, let's kill Assassin too."

Raikou looked at Haru and said with a serious expression. "If the Assassin of Black has become an evil spirit, then we need to eliminate it or else many people will suffer because of it." She had made up her mind to slay the Assassin of Black.

Raikou, after all, was known as a Mystery Slayer that had wiped many monsters, evil spirits, etc in the Heian Era.

In order to protect Kyoto and the people from all kinds of evil, Minamoto no Yorimitsu (Raikou) along with her subordinates, Raikou's Four Heavenly Kings who were under her command, beheaded countless evil spirits, including Shuten-douji of Mount Ooe.

It was her way of life, and Raikou also had a lot of hatred toward those evil spirits.

If the Assassin of Black really wasn't a normal heroic spirit, but similar to Vlad III who had quite ghostly blood, then as a mystery slayer of the Heian Era, Raikou wanted to eliminate the Assassin of Black.

However, all of this required the consent of Haru since he was her master, her dear, and her son.

Unlike her duel with Karna, if Haru didn't want her to eliminate the Assassin of Black, she didn't care much.

However, Raikou hoped that she could eliminate this servant since she didn't want many people to suffer because of the Assassin of Black.

Such a feeling was similar to both Fiore and Chiron.

"I agree with Berserker's suggestion." Chiron looked at Fiore and said, "If Assassin is really the murderers of all those corpses that we have found then we have to kill Assassin."

The two heroes who had seen the murder scene with their own eyes had regarded Assassin as an object that needed to be eliminated.

It could be said that in the hearts of the two of them, the Assassin of Black was a different existence from the two of them. In their minds, the Assassin of Black was a crazy monster that brought a disaster to this world and from ancient times, those monsters had always been killed by heroes.

Even though time had passed, such a thought had never changed.

"Master."

"Master."

Raikou and Chiron looked at their masters and asked for their decisions.

Haru didn't answer Raikou immediately since he felt that it wouldn't be easy to eliminate Assassin of Black. It wasn't that he didn't believe in their power, but at how Assassin was fighting, he was sure that Assassin wouldn't meet them directly.

Fiore looked at her servant and felt a bit complicated. Her heart was a bit in a mess since she wasn't sure what kind of decision that she should make, however, she knew that she couldn't let Assassin of Black do whatever he/she wanted in this city.

"Are you two confident that you can defeat Assassin?" Haru asked.

When Fiore heard Haru's question, she also looked at two servants since it was a very important question.

"…I can't make a guarantee."

Chiron closed his eyes, and after thinking it over in his mind, he came to that conclusion.

"The opponent is an assassin who is good at sudden attack or stealth. I am sure that he/she won't confront us head-on. If we get the opportunity, we may be able to directly attack Assassin, but if we get caught in a protracted battle, then the opponent might escape."

In terms of combat power, it is only natural for the three knight classes of Saber, Lancer, and Archer to have higher combat power, but Assassin never solely relied on combat power and attacked his/her enemy from a blind spot where they have never noticed it.

If the situation is unfavorable, then Assassin won't hesitate to run away which makes it a very troublesome opponent.

It was the reason why Chiron said that he couldn't guarantee that he could defeat Assassin.

"What about you?" Chiron turned his gaze to Raikou and asked, "Can you defeat Assassin?"

It might be because of his wisdom, that Chiron could tell that Raikou was quite proficient at dealing with this type of opponent.

And as expected…

"As long as you can find Assassin, then I can slay it."

In Raikou's mind, the Assassin of Black was an evil spirit and it was very easy for her to slay it.

"……"

Fiore and Chiron were in a daze since they knew that Berserker was strong, but for her to answer Chiron's question with such confidence.

After confirming Raikou's answer, there was only one problem and everyone turned their gazes at Haru.

Haru let out a sigh and nodded. "Why not? If you feel that you can slay the Assassin of Black, then do it." However, he was wondering why he felt that the Assassin of Black might appear in front of him later.

'Well, it might be my imagination…'

With that answer, the decision to eliminate the Assassin of Black was made.

However, the four of them didn't know that tonight, many people came uninvited.

A pair of men and women drove a car recklessly into the city of Bucharest.

A wild female hunter jumped under the moonlight and came to this town too.

In addition, there was a huge and study man with a terrifying smile, and whose body was made of muscle, rushing from the mountain like a tank.

Various beings and exitances began to enter the city one after another and without a doubt, this city would turn into a huge battlefield soon.

For ordinary people, these existences were like a natural disaster, and they couldn't be resisted at all.

For Haru and his party, these existences were enemies, and the moment they met each other, there would be a battle between the two sides.

In such a situation, a young girl that appeared like a ghost, came out from her house, ready to take another life in this town.

Bucharest, the capital of Romania, was about to welcome chaos that was comparable to the level of world war and the first fight between two factions on the Holy Grail war was about to begin in this place.
