William tensed as the door behind him opened. "I'm done with today's reconnaissance," Kiritsugu said as he closed the door and sat down a cushioned bench. He opened a small wooden case, revealing several phials of crystal clear water.<br/><br/>William rose from his seat, "Is that-? Holy Water?"<br/><br/>"Yes," Kiritsugu replied, "I've my methods of obtaining them. They are very lethal. Also, I would require one of your servants to assist me as I am currently quite low on man power."<br/><br/>"Why not my son?"<br/><br/>"Because he is your son. I do not wish to involve my client's family members if possible."<br/><br/>"But I would prefer you have a more skilled partners and get me what I want." William said silently, with an icy edge of his voice. He paused, "But then, whatever you think will suit you should do."<br/><br/>Kiritsugu looked as though he might protest, but it was hard to see so much as a flash of emotion behind those blank eyes of unhappiness. Instead, the other Vampire fell silent and closed the case and asked after a lull, "What now?"<br/><br/>"Next, you would have to kill the King. The queen is also a problem but we can fix that later on. Make the kill look like an accident or an attack by human vampire hunters."<br/><br/>"Why now? We should not eliminate the King first as it will provoke many to resort to violence."<br/><br/>"In which you would surely bring victory, if you are as good as they say you are."<br/><br/>Kiritsugu ignored the comment and continued, "We should work from outside of the circle in. Targeting the royal family would end things messily."<br/><br/>Something wrong was with Kiritsugu's mind, "Look here. You are working for me. I give you the orders, not the other way round."<br/><br/>******<br/><br/>Kelvyn rolled his shoulders just as he heard hooves on the cobblestone path. He ignored it and began walking to the manor.
