Emiya Ilya

Chapter 87 3-15. The Battle Begins

At the gate of Einzbern Castle, a blond girl in silver armor stood holding a sword.

The girl closed her eyes lightly.

The breeze came slowly, and the girl's blond hair fluttered with the wind.

Correct facial features, flawless face.

The astonishing appearance of the girl makes one wonder whether this is a painting?
The dense forests and fantasy castles can only be used as embellishments for the girl's appearance.

With both hands resting on the hilt of the sword, the girl stood there quietly, motionless.

The surrounding environment seems to be affected by the girl, and it is so peaceful.

The "rustling" sound of the grass and trees being blown by the wind,

the song of the birds,
The sound of falling leaves,
the sound of the stream flowing,
the sound of playful animals,

……

"Feng—"

Suddenly the girl suddenly opened her eyes.

A lingering aura erupted from the girl in an instant.

"Want to enter the castle? Beat me first!"

The girl's petite figure is so tall and straight!
In front of the blond girl knight, a man's figure gradually took shape.

The man has black hair, wears black tight-fitting leather armor, and the weapon in his hand is a long spear and a short spear.

"Servant—Lancer is here to fight!"

Lancer smiled and assumed a fighting stance.

Diarmuid had been looking forward to the duel with the King of Knights for a long time.

The blond girl drew out her sword. Of course, although the girl's sword cannot be seen, it really exists.

"Servant—Saber accepts your challenge!"

Holding the sword in both hands, the girl shouted softly.

……

...

"Has Saber already fought Lancer?"

Listening to Assassin's report, Kotomine Kirei knew that the time for his action was almost approaching, and there was only one servant left to rush into the castle.

"Where's Lancer's Master?"

"Still outside the barrier."

"Are you worried about the enemy's Caster?"

It seems that Lancer's Master is very cautious and does not intend to deal with Caster and the enemy Master at the same time.

"Do you want to deal with him?"

Assassin made his own suggestion.There are no followers around Kenneth now, so it can be said that it is a good opportunity to get rid of him.

however……

"No, continue to monitor. Pay attention to the figures of other masters and slaves!"

Kotomine Kirei's goal from the very beginning was to assist Tosaka Tokiomi to win, and his task was mainly to obtain information about the masters and slaves participating in the battle.

and……

At present, Emiya Kiritsugu is probably the only one who has discovered that Assassin has not left the field. If Assassin is exposed now, it will definitely attract the attention of other masters and slaves.

Then they will definitely deliberately guard against Assassin in order to prevent information leaks, which will be very detrimental to future investigations.

Not being fooled by the temptation in front of him, having a big picture, and taking actions for the big picture, there is no doubt that Kotomine Kirei is a formidable character.

In other words, people who are not hindered by personal reasons, and who only think about how to better accomplish their goals like a machine are extremely terrifying!
……

...

"Ah! La la la la la ~"

A chariot appeared above the forest.Pulling the chariot is a strong black bull.

The most striking thing is that the chariots and bulls are flying in the sky on purple lightning.

That was Rider's Noble Phantasm——

Rider's Gordias Wheel

I saw Rider swooping down with his chariot, and the target was Einzbern Castle.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

Suddenly dozens of magic circles appeared above the castle, and the magic circles fired light cannons purely from magic power.

"Wow!?"

Seeing this dense barrage of attacks, Rider admired his opponent from the bottom of his heart.

"Ah! La la la la!"

But he is Iskandar!
He is the King of Conquerors!
Manipulating the chariot to avoid the light cannon,

At the same time, he drew the saber at his waist and knocked down the incoming attack.

……

＜Auto Find Enemy＞、＜Auto Attack＞

Both the magic formula and the source of the magic power are provided by the leylines. It can be said that Caster didn't consume any magic power.

"boom!"

Rider's Gordias Wheel was shattered by more and more magic cannons, and Rider himself was seriously injured and fell straight down.

The ceiling of the castle was pierced by Rider's body.

"Whoo~"

Looking at the enemy servant Rider on the crystal ball, he was dying.Kiritsugu's hanging heart finally let go a little.

It seems that Caster's enchantment power is very good.

however……

……

...

"Master!"

"Do you still have time to get distracted now? Saber!?"

"Bah!"

Taking advantage of Saber's momentary distraction, Lancer knocked Saber back a few steps.

It's just to repel rather than to injure the opponent.Don't take advantage of others, there is no doubt that the other party is a noble knight.

But this is war, not the arena.

Saber could feel that Rider's aura, which was about to go out just now, suddenly fully recovered.

In the absence of powerful melee servants, how can the few people in the castle block Rider's attack! ?

And it is not known that other servants will attack from that direction again.

2 vs 5, their situation is very bad.

If the Heroic Spirits who entered the castle add one more...

Saber can't imagine!

'Please, Master!Be sure to hold on until I arrive! '

Now Saber can only pray to her master, and Caster, one of the seven heroic spirits, can buy her time to defeat Lancer.

"Bah—!"

Regrouping, Saber charged forward again.

She knew that only by concentrating on defeating the opponent in front of her now would she be able to support Kiritsugu and the others.

……

...

"Command Seal? Damn it!"

Rider, who was on the verge of death, suddenly became full of blood, and Kiritsugu also realized why.

"Maiya! Take Irisviel to retreat, and Caster and I meet Rider!"

Seeing Rider standing up again in the crystal ball, Kiritsugu immediately gave the order!
Facing the Heroic Spirit, Kiritsugu knew that he could not win, but...

He has to go!

"Kiritsugu!"

Before leaving, Irisviel turned around and glanced at Kiritsugu.

"Do not worry!"

What Kiritsugu left to Irisviel was a back view.

"Kiritsugu, I can do it alone! Be careful of the enemies who invade the castle."

"What are you playing..."

Before Kiritsugu could say anything, Caster pressed him down.

And he couldn't break free.

Caster's strength is not limited to...

"!?"

Muscle strength: F→C-
Durability: F→C
Agility: F→C
In Kiritsugu's eyes, the value of Caster suddenly changed.Not a rise but a direct change.

Caster turned his back to Kiritsugu with black and white double swords in his hands.

Looking at Caster's red back...

"Don't die!"

Kiritsugu knew that it would be useless for him to talk too much.

"Of course!"

After leaving behind a red back, Caster rushed out in the direction of Rider's breakthrough.

Although he doesn't know how Caster changed his stats, Kiritsugu still knows one fact——

Caster's value is still too low.

Although such a value is enough to crush a human being, it is not enough to be seen among the heroic spirits.

……

...

"Thank you! Little Master!"

Feeling his body full of strength again, Rider knew whose masterpiece it was.

After thanking his Master, Rider looked at the enemy in front of him——

"Caster!"
