"Is it over?"
In a restaurant in Egypt, Kazuya, having breakfast, watched Alucard, dressed in a red coat entered.
"Did you win?"
"No, he escaped." Alucard sat down across from his master, crossing his hands in front of his chin. "Indeed, they are Heroic Spirits, they are Servants... They are indeed different from ordinary humans. They have the value of being killed. Hmph... Hahaha. There were several times during the battle when I wanted to unleash all my combat power, unleash all my attacks... but at that time, I was not far from defeat, right?"
"Indeed, that's right. Others may not say it, but that king, Gilgamesh, will definitely not give up this opportunity."
Kazuya heard the voice that sounded exactly like Alucard's and turned his head slowly. Looking at the priest who had just entered from the door, Kazuya's mouth twitched slightly. "This is... really a coincidence."
"That's right."
Alucard said with a smile on his face, "The Holy Church, Executors... and then, Iscariot?"
Alucard mocked and said, "Iscariot... Iscariot... So, are you carrying the unfinished battle from before, instead of Anderson, to kill me?"
"No, I have no intention of doing that. I am also searching for my own path." The man, Kotomine Kirei, walked in and looked at the one who ignored all the customers in the store, raising a white gun in his hand and aiming it at his own forehead. The man said, "What? Do you want to fight? You should know that I am also an executor. Before you kill me, I can use a command spell to summon that Gilgamesh over. Or, is your idea just to consume one of my command spells?"
"...This is annoying." Alucard put away his gun and said with a smile, "What? That voice is the same as mine. It's... too boring to listen to."
"I also wanted to say that." Kotomine Kirei walked over. "Originally, I just went out for breakfast, but unexpectedly encountered such a thing, making me feel extremely unpleasant."
"Oh, unpleasant?" Kazuya swallowed the food in his mouth and said, "Unpleasant? So, does that mean you already know what pleasantness is? What? Destruction? Despair?"
"Kurokawa Kazuya." Kotomine Kirei did not answer but continued, "You are now officially servant's master of the black faction like me, right? Then, let me give you some advice. The Holy Grail War is about to end, and the Holy Church has reached an agreement with the Mage's Association— the final battle is coming. However, before that, we will first clean up the remaining Servants, such as you, such as those dead apostles."
"Now is the time to join our Holy Church. Otherwise, the only thing you will face in the future is death!"
Kazuya put down his spoons and pondered for a moment. "Indeed, now Alucard and I don't have decisive combat power. If we continue like this, we may lose, or even die..."
"Yes, and if you join us now, you might even get the right to make a wish with the Holy Grail."
"Oh?" Kazuya smiled. "What about you? What is your wish? You have been chosen by the Holy Grail for the second time, right? No wish? No ideals? Are you kidding me?"
"This matter has nothing to do with you. What about your answer? Join? Refuse?"
"Alucard, what do you think?"
"It doesn't matter, I don't care." Alucard laughed lowly. "You are my Master, let you decide on such things. I just need to bite the enemy like a dog in battle and devour the enemy completely."
"You really... hate yourself." Kazuya sighed slightly, looking at Kotomine Kirei with some interest. "Indeed... not bad. Even if it is a pretended join, when you clean up, you won't treat me as your target... is that right?"
"Correct."
"That's great! Moreover, in this way, the possibility of getting the Holy Grail will greatly increase!"
"What about your answer?"
Kotomine Kirei said... facing such benefits, no one could refuse.
"Well, I refuse!"
"What—"
"I, Kurokawa Kazuya, most like to say 'NO' to those who think they are right! Holy Grail? What does that have to do with me—"
"In other words, you refuse?" Kotomine Kirei was silent for two seconds and said.
"That's right!"
"Haha, hahaha—" Alucard laughed as if he couldn't catch his breath. The eyes of the people around who were having breakfast had already gathered, not understanding what these foreigners were talking about and what they were doing.
"That's right! That's how it is, that's my Master!"
"In that case, the negotiation has failed." Kotomine Kirei said, "Be careful. Tonight you will become our enemies, or do you still have the confidence to win in such a situation? Who gave you that confidence? Alucard? Or some other hidden cards?"
"Who knows."
Finishing the breakfast, drinking a sip of tea, Kazuya looked at Kotomine Kirei and said to Alucard beside him, "Alucard, I plan to make an anime adaptation of Hellsing, is it okay?"
"No problem."
"So..." Kazuya pointed to Kotomine Kirei who was about to leave and said, "Let him do the voice acting for you? Don't you think his voice is exactly the same?"
"If you think you can persuade this Executor." Alucard smiled, full of interest.
Hearing this answer, Kazuya said to Kotomine Kirei, "How about it? What do you think of my proposal? The price is negotiable, of course."
"Oh..."
Kotomine Kirei, who was buying breakfast, turned his head and said, "Is it time for the second round at midnight?"
"Yes, that's right, just like selling mapo tofu in a certain world, the second round of assassinations by Executors."
"I refuse." Kotomine Kirei shook his head and said, "Give this topic back to you."
"I've already have one person here who you know doing the second round, Emiya Kiritsugu..."
"... I will consider it." Kotomine Kirei turned around and said without looking back, "What about you? Aren't you considering it?
"No, I have not agreed to that proposal, and the possibility of agreeing is unlikely. For the time being, it's fine. In the midst of this war... let me opt out of joining, after all... I am just a witness."
