Just before Tamazuki's attack on Saber and Irisviel, when Archer was forcefully called by his Master to the Tohsaka household, his heart was filled with rage as he faced this incompetent mongrel.
"You are quite presumptuous, Tokiomi..."
His tone was low and cold, clearly showing his anger toward Tokiomi's disrespect.
Facing this, Tokiomi bowed his head deeply and apologized. "I am sorry, King Gilgash, but if we show all of our cards, then we might be at a disadvantage."
"Do you think that this King will lose? ? Do you know who you are talking with, Tokiomi?"
The pressure felt by Tokiomi was even more intense, but he could still answer Gilgash's question.
"We are still unable to find the Master of Caster and Caster, and they might attack us during that ti. I know that my actions might seem unpleasant and rude in your eyes, but once again, I apologize since I wish for our victory, King Gilgash."
Facing this Master, Gilgash was in silence and didn't continue to talk since he knew no matter how many tis he talked, it would be useless. While he could see that Tokiomi was gentle and tried to apologize, who knew what was inside a human's heart?
Gilgash beca a King the mont he was born, and it was impossible for everything to be smooth. He had faced many people, including Tokiomi's type of person. Suddenly, he beca bored and wondered whether sothing fun existed in this world.
'Oh, there it is!'
He suddenly thought about Tokiomi's only disciple and the hidden darkness inside that person. Instead, with Tokiomi, he knew that having him as a Master would be more fun.
"There is no next ti."
Leaving those words, Gilgash disappeared.
"Yes."
Tokiomi still bowed his head before he straightened his back once again when Gilgash left. He wiped the sweat on his forehead before he frowned. Even though he appeared polite and respectful toward Gilgash, he had never thought that Gilgash was sothing to be served or idolized.
While such a figure should be revered, in Tokimomi's eyes, Gilgash was nothing but just a piece for him to win this ga known as the Holy Grail.
As long as Gilgash could follow his instruction without trouble, bowing his head was nothing for Tokiomi.
However, Tokiomi couldn't help but frown and felt a little unpleasant when he needed to waste one Command Spell for this stupid little unpredictable act.
Still, Tokiomi needed Gilgash's strength, but when everything was over, he was going to tell this oldest king that his era had ended.
Nevertheless, tonight, Tokiomi wasn't the only one that faced trouble.

Looking down from the 32nd floor, the top floor of the Fuyuki Hyatt Hotel, Kayneth was growing and was unable to ease his depression.
In this city, no building was taller than this. Still, the title of the tallest building would soon disappear as the Shinto shopping center would be built soon, and this building would be even more outrageous since it had 38 floors.
But for Kayneth, the building was rely "wasteful." For him, who was born into the aristocracy, this building was rely a pigsty decorated with a luxurious appearance, yet for soone with his status, this building more or less fit his standard, especially when he was known as a prodigy and the heir of the well-known Archibald. Moreover, among the busy Clock Tower, he was still able to get the title of the famous Lord El-lloi.
This war was nothing but a plaything during his break between his busy life as a Magus.
It was nothing but a ga.
Nevertheless, even with such haughty confidence, there was no doubt about his qualification or power as a Magus.
This hotel, while it might appear like rubbish in the eyes of the Magus, had beco his stronghold. It had undergone a complete renovation, but not on the material type of renovation, but a fortification through Magecraft.
In this building totaling thirty-two floors, Kayneth's bounded field covered twenty-four floors. This place could be called a castle of Magecraft. In addition, there were three magical furnaces for Kayneth's exclusive use, and in place of hounds, there had been summoned ten-odd evil spirits and apparitions. There wasn't even a flaw in the drainage pipes: Kayneth had completely covered underneath the hall with his bounded field.
In his mind, instead of attacking enemy territory, it's much better to perfect one's own territories. As for the challenger who dared to set foot here, Kayneth would make him realize the real terror of El-lloi.
Maybe, soone might ask why he was so brave to build his stronghold in such a tall hotel.
What if this hotel was bombed?
Naturally, as a Magus, Kayneth knew about a modern weapon, and he wasn't stupid, but he thought that it was impossible for soone to bomb this place, especially when this building cost hundreds of millions of dollars.
Moreover, if this building was destroyed because of a bomb, the insurance company would naturally co to trace the reason why this building was destroyed.
Such an act would attract the attention of the world was nothing but idiotic, especially when the Magecraft would beco weaker with more people knowing this mystery.
So, in his mind, the only way for soone to attack him was either to break from a frontal battle to break this hotel from the entrance, climb or wait until he went out.
This was also why he could be at ease and reprimanded Lancer, his disappointing Servant who couldn't even eliminate a single Servant during the previous battle in the port.
Previously, Berserker had given them a chance to eliminate Saber, who was the strongest class in this Holy Grail, yet Lancer was so disappointed and wasted this chance.
Yet, as Kayneth tried to reprimand Lancer, his fiancee, Sola-UI Nuada-Re Sophia-Ri stopped him and even reprimanded Kayneth.
In front of his fiancee, Kayneth wasn't like those prodigies that were respected by others, but a weak man who let his woman walk over him. Yet, for him, who had everything in life, the only thing that he lacked was only a woman. Sola fitted the description of the perfect partner that he sought, so even if Sola was rude toward him, he tolerated her as he would be lying if he didn't feel anything toward this woman.
In simple terms, Kayneth had fallen for Sola.
However, Sola never loved Kayneth, and she disdained this marriage. Moreover, when Kayenth kept tolerating her, she also thought of him as a weak man. Yet, facing Diarmuid, who was known as soone who seduced the wife of his King, Sola beca a weak woman who obediently followed her man.
However, Kayneth didn't realize that and only gritted his teeth in annoyance, yet he loved Sola, so he kept tolerating her, especially when he knew that he had co to this city with the intention of showing his fiancee how handso he was in this battle.
Still, even with a single failure, it didn't matter since Kayneth knew that he would be the victor in the end.
Yet, suddenly...
"Wh-What's happening?"
The fire alarm suddenly went off without warning, interrupting his train of thought.
While Sola panicked, Kayneth calmly lifted up the river to listen to the receptionist. When he finished, his gaze once again regained the sharpness unique to Magi.
"It seems like there's a fire sowhere downstairs; the managent is telling us to evacuate."
However, Kayneth didn't think this was a coincidence. Instead, it was all a deliberate act by the opposing Masters. Facing this provocation, he didn't feel fear, or rather, he felt it was a chance to regain his dignity and deanor in front of his fiancee.
His Servant, Lancer, was also ready to regain the honor of his Master's and acted according to his Master's order.
"Now, why don't we let them take a good look at Kayneth El-lloi's magic atelier?"
Kayneth was full of confidence as he could imagine his opponent would die in this place, yet what he didn't know was that his opponent was an idiotic person that he never imagined to appear in this world.
"Maiya, is everything ready?"
"Yes, all the custors are outside."
"Then, go with the plan."
Emiya Kiritsugu closed the commutation and focused on the window where Kayneth's room was located, aiming for his sniper, ready to shoot anyti.
