Chapter 563: Medusa vs. Archer!

~6 min read 1,086 words

"Get lost!"

This was Rin Tohsaka's choice. That's right, she really wanted the Holy Grail, but letting her trade herself for it was absolutely impossible!

Perhaps for other mages, they wouldn't mind such things, but unfortunately, she was Rin Tohsaka!

Matou Shinji was stunned. He looked at Rin Tohsaka in front of him, gritting his teeth.

"What! Say that again!"

Matou Shinji didn't understand. He was clearly a mage now, so why did Rin Tohsaka still reject him? They were the school's heartthrob and the school's beauty, and both were from the Three Founding Families; they were clearly a match made in heaven!

Seeing Matou Shinji's appearance, Rin Tohsaka sighed helplessly and said,

"Listen well, Matou Shinji, I have no interest in you, Matou Shinji, so don't bother me again. Don't say you've only become a half-baked mage; even if you reached the Root, my attitude toward you wouldn't change at all."

After Rin Tohsaka finished speaking, she turned to leave. Sakura was still at home waiting for her to eat; she didn't have time to waste with Matou Shinji here.

"What did you say! Rin Tohsaka! You!"

Matou Shinji was annoyed and embarrassed. However, Rin Tohsaka said without looking back,

"Alright, pursuing girls is your freedom, but it's better to know when to stop."

"Haha... Hahahahaha! Very well! Very well indeed! Rin Tohsaka! Hahaha! Come out! Rider!"

Hum!

Suddenly, on Rin Tohsaka's side, the sound of a chain being swung rang out, and immediately after, a short sword flew toward her body!

"Archer!"

Clang!

Accompanied by a crisp sound of weapons colliding, a slender and graceful figure appeared in front of Rin Tohsaka, blocking her path!

Rider! Medusa!

"Servant!" Rin Tohsaka became serious as she looked at Medusa in front of her. Even if she looked down on Matou Shinji, the strength of this Servant was the real deal.

Seeing Rider appear, a triumphant smile appeared on Matou Shinji's face.

"Haha, see that? This is my Servant! Rider! Hey, Rin Tohsaka, that's your Servant, right? How about it? Do you want to let them compare? I've been wanting to see a battle between Servants for a long time!"

A petty man drunk on success.

Rider's eyes, hidden under her blindfold, were full of contempt, but she didn't say anything. She wasn't really a hero herself; compared to a Heroic Spirit, her existence was actually closer to an Anti-Heroic Spirit.

As long as she could achieve her goal, it was all the same to her. It was just a battle anyway; as long as the result was achieved, the process didn't matter.

Rin Tohsaka: "Matou Shinji! You! It's not even dark yet!"

"Hahaha! What does that matter! Why should the Holy Grail War worry about so much! This battle is a fight to the death! Go, Rider! Kill that red familiar! Bring Rin Tohsaka back to me!"

"Tch, despicable man." Rider looked at him with disdain, and then the nameless short sword in her hand shot forward instantly!

The chain attached to the short sword enveloped everything nearby! All of Archer and Rin Tohsaka's retreat paths were directly blocked! And Rider, at this moment, attacked Archer with extreme agility!

Trace, on!

Bang!

Two weapons collided in the air, and the two figures completed several rounds of combat in the blink of an eye!

Monstrous Strength! Activate!

Suddenly, Medusa's strength increased sharply. With a thrust, the nameless short sword in her hand actually pierced through Archer's Kanshou and Bakuya!

A cold light flashed, and Archer's body was directly pierced!

Fortunately, at the critical moment, Archer activated Eye of the Mind (False) B, so although he was injured, it was not fatal.

"Is her strength also this strong?"

Archer: Attributes Strength D, Endurance C, Agility C, Mana B, Luck E; he could be considered first-class among Servants, but facing the current Medusa, he was completely suppressed!

Damn it! Is Medusa this strong? How did he not know!

Medusa wasn't weak to begin with; her poor performance in UBW and Saber's route was entirely because her Master was trash. But even so, she could still suppress Archer with her Mystic Eyes of Petrification, not to mention that this shortcoming had now been remedied, and her strength had been improved in the simulation! How could Archer be her opponent!

Medusa casually shook the blood off her short sword. She looked at Archer in front of her with interest and said indifferently,

"You actually dodged that blow? You also have Eye of the Mind?"

Medusa, Eye of the Mind (False) B.

The ability to predict actions based on the current situation and perform breaks, evasions, and counterattacks.

Medusa's Eye of the Mind came from Lin Ye, and Lin Ye's came from Diarmuid.

So, with the same level of Eye of the Mind, Medusa successfully suppressed Archer by relying on her attribute advantage.

Seeing Medusa gain the upper hand, Matou Shinji became excited!

"Hahaha! Truly worthy of being my Servant! She's really strong! Rin Tohsaka! Aren't you going to surrender yet! If you surrender now, my previous conditions still count~"

"Get lost!" Rin Tohsaka glared at Matou Shinji. How could this guy be so lucky! He actually summoned such a good Servant! It's really unreasonable!

Of course, Matou Shinji being able to summon Medusa was mainly due to the catalyst prepared by Matou Zouken, Medusa's strong desire, and a little bit of world-line influence; otherwise, he couldn't have been so lucky.

But then again, this guy's luck is indeed good. In the three routes of the Holy Grail War, except for being killed in the HF route, he not only lived well in the other two routes but also made a name for himself later. The ending was quite good; this guy's luck is at least a C.

Matou Shinji: "Tch, you don't know how to seize the opportunity given to you! Rider! Use your Noble Phantasm!"

What!

Seeing this scene, Rin Tohsaka took a deep breath. She looked at Archer beside her and said seriously,

"Archer, I don't know why you're hiding things from me, but now! If you keep hiding, we might lose our lives! You! Aren't you going to use your Noble Phantasm!"

Seeing this, Archer sighed helplessly.

He had originally wanted to save this trump card for Emiya Shirou, but now, did he have to use it?

At this moment, Archer placed one hand on his chest and chanted the words he had never wanted to say!

"I am the bone of my sword!!!" ===== CHAPTER 565 =====
