Chapter 13: The Vanishing Arash
The night was cold.
The streets are brightly lit.
The night sky is silent.
The streets are full of laughter.
At the Great Nero Festival, everyone was immersed in pleasure, and the orange lights on the streets contrasted with the dark and unforgiving darkness of the sky at night.
On such a polarizing night, Arash's figure galloped at high speed.
Wearing green armor and holding a big red bow in his hand, I saw him stretch out his legs vigorously, like a hurdler, jumping from the roof of a house in an ordinary way, and then jumping directly to the roof of another house with a speed far beyond the limit of human beings and exaggerated jumping power, as soon as he landed, the red combat boots on his right leg stepped on the hard stone of the roof, stopped, his body rolled sideways along the dynamics, rolled around, picked up the bow in his hand, and aimed at the deep black in the distance.
Judging from the eyesight of ordinary people, this is a secondary two teenager who suddenly fell ill and committed parkour behavior in order to be handsome.
But, under the proud clairvoyance of Alashna, he clearly saw the people about a kilometer away.
In the night, the man was dressed in a red robe, and his clothes were ...... It has a modern feel, with short silver hair standing up and fluttering with the night breeze. His eyes were on Arash as clearly as he could see Arash clearly.
The two men confronted each other in the air, and before Arash suddenly disappeared, it was when he was talking that he suddenly felt the smell of [the same kind].
Arash is an archer with clairvoyance, the real usage should be to send Hassan as a scout, after finding the target, through the induction between the master and the servant, Hassan told the master, and the master then told Arash, and then Arash shot the other party directly from a super long distance.
Should it be classified as a [Sniper]? Or should it be classified as an assassin?
For Archer, this kind of ultra-long-range sniping is the orthodox way of fighting.
That's what Arash felt.
Targeted by a sniper...... Or rather, the feeling of being targeted by Claireye.
Suddenly, with this sense, Arash took the initiative to find out where the divine was peeping here.
However, the other party obviously confirmed Arash's attack and began to move his position, so the two ran and chased under the night sky, until just now, the man in red stopped.
In Arash's vision, the man in red sighed and raised his hands. With a look of "I have no hostility", he came towards Arash.
With the power of the servant's feet, the distance of one kilometer is only a moment.
"Really, although I expected it to be a pretty good shooter, I didn't expect it to be so sharp."
The man in red smiled bitterly and shook his head, with a helpless feeling that his plan had failed.
His skin is slightly dark, he looks like he has been baptized by wind and sand all year round, his hair is silvery-white, and if you look at the facial features on his face, you can clearly see the maturity of the vicissitudes of life on his face.
The time of the Heroic Soul is stopped. They will be called in the state of the golden age and then go to the "business". It's normal for young people to have an age-appropriate maturity on their faces.
He was wearing a black tights and black trousers, tied with a belt, revealing a neat smell. The upper body is a short red coat with a red girdle around the waist. The whole person uses red and black, revealing a neat sense of sophistication.
"Well, I'm just an ordinary archer~"
Arash said with a smile, not sure if it was true self-humility or simply not wanting to give the other party too much information.
"At dusk, the assassin who has his sights on Emperor Nero is you, right?"
"Huh...... It's me. ”
was asked so directly, the man in red paused for a moment, and then decisively admitted.
He thought that the other party would ask who he was, what he was doing and so on, but he didn't expect to come up and go straight to the point. It's okay, it's not his character to beat around the bush, he does like to be so straightforward.
Among the servants, the archer is always known for his excellent power in the Noble Phantasm, and if the man in red insisted on liberating the Noble Phantasm and sniping Nero at that time, it would definitely affect his own master.
That's why Arash paid more attention to the archer.
"Why did it stop?"
"Sa...... Why? ”
The man in red snorted, but secretly slandered in his heart: Obviously it's you, who released a momentum that if I dare to shoot, I will intercept my arrow in mid-air, and now what are you talking about......
Yes, at that time, the man in red originally wanted to ignore it and directly liberate the treasure.
For some reason, Emperor Nero was quite difficult, and she stayed in her palace on weekdays, the luxurious golden palace, almost equivalent to a magic fortress.
It's not that the palace's defenses are so powerful, but that Nero in the palace is as difficult as a caster in a magic workshop. However, seizing the situation of Emperor Nero parade through the streets like this and leaving the temple is the best sniper moment.
He had observed the parade of Nero's floats ten times in a row for this day, and finally chose the sniper point with the highest success rate, but today he was disrupted by Arash.
This man is not an ordinary heroic spirit.
To be precise, he should not belong to the category of Heroic Spirits.
He's the kind of person who makes a pact with the inhibition and saves the human race in front of him by entrusting his life after death...... Fools. Therefore, although he completed the miracle of saving others during his lifetime, after his death, he was driven by the inhibition force, and in various worlds and at various points in time, as the guardian of the inhibition force, as a killer, he kept repeating the [killing] of [protecting the world].
He's not the kind of servant who would be so soft as to give up his mission for the sake of the lives of one or two people.
It's just that at that time, the momentum of [no matter what kind of treasure it is, it will definitely be shot down by me first] exuded from Arash's body was too strong, and he judged that a strong attack was not the best strategy, so he chose Huairou.
"Ahaha, probably because I saw the master of our family, who was too cute, and then I couldn't bear it, right? Oh, it's really a temperamental person. ”
He joked, and by the way, he gave the man in red a step down.
The man in red was silent, and after a moment, he still nodded and said, "Let it be like this." ”
Judging that it was not interesting to dwell on this detail with him, the man in red decisively chose to give up.
"Then, it's convenient for my brother to talk, both are archer-level, so the two of us can communicate. For example, the technique of using a bow, such as the use of clairvoyance...... And - what is this peculiarity? ”
Arash's eyes were like torches, and although he was giggling, his eyes flashed with a serious look.
“…… All right. I understand. ”
The man in red chose to compromise.
His goal was not to kill the last lord of mankind, but to kill Emperor Nero. In this sense, there is no need to add an additional opponent. If you can convince the other party with words, then it is very good.
