	Humans find pride in "wisdom" and dread "ignorance". Hence if they can "experience" and "comprehend" a given fear, then it is a victory that resembles the overcoming of that fear.

	However, "death" is merely... something that you can't experience while you live. Therefore it is impossible to understand its true meaning. That's why humans can only guess the essence of death by observing other people's death, and make up a virtual experience.

Meeting again after 5 years, his sister's body had completely changed, but she waited for her brother at the place Ryuunosuke had hidden it. The silent meeting with his sister gave him no particularly strong emotion, and Ryuunosuke was disappointed that he had come for nothing; but at that moment, he found a rotten old book from the mountain of junk crammed in the warehouse.

	The thin worm-eaten book was not a printed copy but an individual note. The postscript says ninth year of the Keiō era. This writing is more than a hundred year old, dating back to the end of the Bakumatsu.		The thin worm-eaten book was not a printed copy but an individual note.

			The 'thing' that was feasting on the kid's remains upstairs was, apparently, the man's doing. He was the one who had appeared from the bloody magic circle, afterall. There was no possible doubt something had happened when he had opened his book with the binding made out of human skin.

			The method was nerve-racking, but that is what is splendid in this philosophy. Ryuunosuke was no match for the creativity and perfect aesthetics of such evilness. Him who held such a vivid and moving "aesthetics of death" deserved the greatest praises.

			"Cool! That's wicked! Man, that was super cool!"

			Feeling like dancing with joy, Ryuunosuke grabbed the man's hand and shook it. Making friends with this strange man was no less moving than meeting a celebrity. The mass murderer Uryuu Ryuunosuke finally felt adoration and respect from the depth of his heart for someone in this boring world.

			"Okay! I don't know about this Grail thing, but I'll follow you! I'll help you in whatever you want. We'll kill more. There are plenty of sacrifices. Show me more
			<!-- ==== Page 192 ==== -->
			of your cool killings!"

			"You are a pleasant fellow."

			Understanding of Ryuunosuke's emotion, the man replied gently to his violent handshake with a pure smile.

			"Ryuunosuke, was it. It is a good omen I got a Master as understanding as you. This is developing more and more into an ideal situation for my aspirations."

			When a summoning is made without a catalyst, the heroic spirit will be one that has a similar mindset as the Master. The one summoned by the vicious murderer was one who had left his name on extremely cruel acts; he was a heroic spirit with a taste for true tyranny. Or rather, based on that nature, it would be more suitable to call him a vengeful spirit instead of a heroic spirit.

			"Ah―, right, I didn't get to hear your name."

			Remembering about the important parts, Ryuunosuke started acting more familiarly.

			"My name, yes. Indeed. For this era, you could call me..."

			The man put a finger to his lips, then after thinking a little,

			"... Then, for now, you can call me "Bluebeard". Pleased to meet you."

			He replied familiarly with an angelic smile.

			Thus, the last position of the fourth Holy Grail War ― the Master and his Servant

			'Caster' completed the contract. This is how, without knowing the meaning of the Grail War or his nature of magus, the casual murderer received Command Spells and a Servant.

			For a trick of fate, this may be the foulest play.

	"― You have nothing to be afraid of, my boy."		"― You have nothing to be afraid of, my boy."

			Unlike what his odd appearance suggested, the strange man gently spoke to the boy. The imprisoned kid gradually notices his warmth, and looks at the man questioningly.

			As a reply, the man gives a smiling nod, bending toward the boy and extending his hand at him― gently untying his ropes and gag.

			"Can you stand?"

			As an encouragement, the man patted the boy on the back, helping him up.

			Of course, Ryuunosuke had no doubt the man was a devil, but he was really dissatisfied with how he was treating the child. Is he actually going to let
			<!-- ==== Page 189 ==== -->
			him live?

			Anyway, no matter how you looked at him, the man is queer. When silent, his features would look dreadful like the face of a corpse, but when smiling without any apparent maliciousness, he would seem as pure as a saint.

			"Now, my boy, the door over there will lead you out of this room. Don't look around, walk straight forward by yourself. Can you do that by yourself?"

			"... Yes..."

			At the boy's brave nod, the man responded with a bright smile, softly pushing his back.

			The boy started running lightly across the bloodstained living room, as he avoided looking at the corpses of both his parents and his sister as instructed.

			"Hum, hey..."

			Of course Ryuunosuke couldn't ignore it all and spoke, but the man quickly interrupted him with a hand sign. Overpowered, Ryuunosuke helplessly watched the kid escape.

			The boy opens the door and steps into the corridor. In front of him is the entranceway. His eyes drowned in fear until then are now shinning again in hope and relief.

			The climax came the next instant.

			The boy was leaving the stairs behind him, facing the entranceway. From the second floor, invisible from
			<!-- ==== Page 190 ==== -->
			the living room, something suddenly fell down in an avalanche on the young boy. A bundle of heavy ropes ― no, a flock of countless snakes ― an indescribable life form, or rather, a living creature twined around the boy's whole body, and with an otherworldly force, took away the young body up to the second floor.

			Then― a soul-rending scream. The clicking tongues of an infinite number of creatures, and the echo of small bones crushed. The rashness of whatever was happening on the upper floor easily stimulated imagination even without witnessing it.

			The strange man closed his eyes and raised his face, listening the nightmarish sound, drunk in attention. His hand shivers. Apparently he is deeply moved.

			But the emotion was just as great for Ryuunosuke... No, as he didn't expect something like that to happen, the catharsis is far more intense for him.

			"There is a certain freshness in fear."

			The lingering memory of the horror he had himself planned out hadn't drawn out yet ―there now was no remaining doubt he was a devil― when he started speaking, and his voice sounded like he was entranced in a dream.

			"Fright is about the feeling that you will die. The true meaning of terror doesn't lie
			<!-- ==== Page 191 ==== -->
			in a static condition, but in a change― this is the instant when hope is turned into despair.

			How was it? The smell of fresh fear and death."

			"― Kh ―"

			Ryuunosuke was at loss of words.
