Sakumura found Alexander. For safety's sake, he had left Kirei Kotomine at home.
Although he had no intention of fighting this time, unnecessary danger was best avoided. If he encountered danger, Sakumura was confident that he could at least escape no matter what—but only if he was alone.
With someone else in tow, he would not even be able to run.
"You're going to fight that golden flashy one?"
Sakumura sat on the windowsill of Waver Velvet's base, swinging his legs as he watched the trembling Waver and the unruffled Alexander inside.
"Assassin, wh-what are you doing here?"
Waver seemed to be trying to make himself look tougher, but under the pressure brought by the Assassin class, his shoulders still trembled slightly.
"If I wanted to kill you, Rider couldn't stop me. What are you so scared of?"
Sakumura looked at Waver speechlessly.
He could tell that this timid kid had grown quite a bit during this Holy Grail War, but there still seemed to be some areas where he fell short.
"Boy, Assassin is right. He hasn't come to start a fight."
Alexander had initially thought Sakumura had come to pick a fight as well, but the bird sitting there carried no killing intent.
Although Sakumura, as Assassin, was sitting right in front of the other side's Master, although Sakumura had smashed apart Waver's carefully arranged magecraft territory, although Sakumura had started wiping his sword the moment he sat on the windowsill—Sakumura had no killing intent.
So there was no danger.
"I heard something, so I came to ask about it."
"After all, the winner between you two might end up being my final opponent, you know?"
"Even though Saber is my target, I don't think I'll definitely lose."
"Oh! So you really have set your sights on Saber!
