There was a moment for Xerxes to check the rate of breathing for the exhausted master, and finally he took a step back. [color=fff79a]"Thank you, Archer."[/color] He said after that long pause. For a moment he was tempted to kill the man, but that would just be improper, and tasteless. Besides, it wasn't like he'd actually have a reason for it. He had seen the man in the native district. Much like himself, they had both been there to save lives. But this man was probably more selfless about it. After all, Xerxes went in later, with some... Ulterior motives.

With that done, the persian master turned to the Mafia, or at least their leader. He wasn't much to look at, but as Xerxes could testify, looks were not everything. It was ambition. And despite their conflicting interests, Xerxes admired ambition. [color=fff79a]"Honestly, I think it's better you didn't carry a weapon to the meeting. Too many jumpy individuals with weapons just seems to invite somebody else to bring out a bigger stick. I'm sure you all saw what happened to the last big stick though."[/color] He had a little laugh about that, since it was clear all of them had clearly seen the massive tree in Fuyuki. No doubt it was a major part of why they had all come here. The fire's effect still lingered, despite how they all tried to pretend it had never happened and continued trying to kill each other. Humans never learned, did they? Or maybe they were trying to learn, hence the meeting.

He didn't speak to the strange individual called Mary. Not because she didn't register. But because he wanted to save that kind of conversation for later. 

Then came the Matou. In the flesh it seemed for once. No karmic links to those insects. Thankfully for Xerxes, since by this point he had grown sick of the insects that seemed to be hiding in every portion of this city. He was sure the hordes of insects in the forest had been planning to bombard him for days the very moment he left the church. But at the very least, there was a meeting to ease some tension. 
[color=fff79a]"It's a pleasure to finally meet the Matou representative for this meeting."[/color] He said, with a smile. [color=fff79a]"Xerxes Kaveh, care to share your name to me?"[/color] He didn't reach out to shake hands. Instead he gave a little wave from his position closest to the Archer servant by his side. 

Then... There was the servant.

Boot... [i][b]MEET DOOR![/b][/i]

KER-POW! The doors slammed open as the hero finally arrived at the meeting. His cape flying behind him, and Roland burst into full on laughter, standing amongst the masters, and the odd servant still sticking around. The heroic Roland gazed around the room, and once he was sure there were enough eyes... His mouth opened wide, and with a deep breath...!

He paused, realizing there was somebody missing. [color=00a99d]"Where is Saber?"[/color] He said, doing a full turn, and raising his hand to his eyes, as if scanning the crowd once more. Because right now, the lack of Olivier was shocking. To be honest, he expected her here simply because her wisdom would help them all. Maybe he was early? He didn't think he was early. To be honest he was more sure he was late. And only then, once he was sure the person he was looking for, did he finally notice his own Master, just... Standing there. 

[color=00a99d]"Well... That can't be good."[/color]
