Don't—!
I can do this myself.

I see. Certainly, then, that would confirm my suspicions. But—

I feel you should be made aware - this does not prevent you from vying for the Holy Grail. Certainly it will be difficult. But. This Grail War does not rely on the bond between Servants and Masters to be maintained. Rather, all that is required is the removal of the other Servants. If you can accomplish that, with or without another Servant you form a contract with, it does not matter - then the Holy Grail shall be yours.
Theresa, if they're immune to guns, then they're gonna be immune to being threatened by guns.
UN JOUR JE SERAI DE RETOUR PRÈS DE TOI...Okay, right... So I guess we're either gonna have to rig up some grade-A booby traps and just make this the most unwelcome place in the house, or lay as low as we can, ditch the room and hope it shakes them...

make it through this year if it kills you yet | 2001-2019I said I can do it myself.

This is how the Holy Grail War ritual was designed, from the beginning. In short, it is a ritual of sacrifice, where Heroic Spirits are used as the sacrificial lambs.
...Theresa, I really don't think it's that big a deal.

...Well, if he's the church guy I'm thinking of, then he's probably trustworthy.
Furthermore, this Grail War is fundamentally different from the others. It appears that the Grail has already been partially filled.
UN JOUR JE SERAI DE RETOUR PRÈS DE TOI...
That's wrong.
It appears that several Servants have already died here and filled the Grail. Whether they were Servants who never found a Master or Servants killed in combat - it does not change the outcome. Whatever the case, not all Servants or Masters will have to die to manifest the miracle that is within the Grail.
-does this remind you of anyone silver-
-Homura- I would estimate that the ritual is fully complete. Without the Grail in front of me, it is impossible to say for sure, though the only difference that makes is whether one Servant or two will have to die.
Well, he's the guy who supervises the Grail War, right? That's kinda his job.
UN JOUR JE SERAI DE RETOUR PRÈS DE TOI-shakes his head- No... just- relying on yourself, isn't going to bring you anywhere.
I mean- do you think the legendary heroes- didn't have any help in achieving their greatness? King Arthur- had his knights.
Julius Caesar- his Legions.
Things like that. Even small things like teachers.

My name is Kotomine Kirei. I am the Church-appointed supervisor for this Holy Grail War.
It is funny. It seems that, once more, the information I was given is off - I was told you two were Masters.
I really don't think guns are gonna do much against the kinds of creeps we're dealing with.
