Chapter 524

(Gatekeeper)

Waver: "The guy who was killed because she didn't grasp the measure... refers to Atrum?"]

Kayneth: "Hmph, in other words, that guy is already dead."]

Iskandar: "Really an unlucky child, didn't even get a scene."]

[Emiya Emiya Emiya Shirou said angrily: "The incidents that happened in the city, it was you!"]

["Alright, let's get to the point."]

[Medea didn't care about this at all, approached the other party and said: "Your Command Spell, I will accept it."]

[It must be because her Master was captured by that vixen; it's understandable, but I won't sympathize.]

[As a swordsman, thinking about other things during battle will cost you your life.]

["Drink!!!"]

[Anxious Artoria began to turn from defense to offense, rushing toward Kojiro.]

[The reason she dared to be so reckless is that through the brief confrontation just now, her Instinct was ready.]

[Kojiro slashed horizontally at her neck, which was directly gripped by her armored left hand, and then she raised her sword with her right hand to slash down, preparing to cut off the opponent's wrist in one blow.]

[Facing such a situation, Kojiro remained calm, released his right hand holding the hilt, and slammed his palm into the end of the hilt.]

[The force of the arm was transmitted to the blade, and the blade trembled rapidly, flicking away the enemy's arm holding the blade.]

[Then Kojiro swung his long sword forward with his left hand, but it was predicted by Artoria's Instinct, and she jumped back to leave the attack range of the long sword.]

[Artoria's face looked ugly; the Kojiro opposite was indeed not an ordinary person.]

[Even with the help of Instinct, she couldn't break through the enemy in front of her without unleashing her power.]

Charlemagne: "Amazing! It's really a matter of life and death in one move!"

Artoria: "Good reaction and counterattack, swordsman."

Gatekeeper: "Hahaha, we are likewise."

[Kojiro: "It's wonderful. I had at least seven opportunities to cut off your head, but you are still safe and sound; it seems that Western swordsmanship also has its own exquisiteness."]

[Artoria: "Likewise, the techniques you performed are also worth admiring; it seems that you only have these little tricks to show."]

[Kojiro: "Yes, you have the upper hand in strength and momentum, so I can only play to my strengths."]

["I'm already used to that invisible sword in your hand."]

["..."]

[Artoria took a deep breath and forced herself to calm down.]

[If this continues, let alone saving Emiya Emiya Shirou Emiya, she will probably be exhausted to death first.]

Gatekeeper: "As expected of the legendary King of Knights, she can still exert such strength while weakened. It seems my cultivation is not enough."

Li Li Shuwen: "It's a pity I don't use a sword, otherwise I really want to compare with you."

Gatekeeper: "It doesn't matter if you don't use a sword; being too obsessed with one type of weapon will only limit the upper limit of a person's skills."

Li Li Shuwen: "Hahaha, well said!"

[Back to inside Ryuudou Temple.]

["Judging by your tone, your Masters are indeed in cahoots, right?"]

[Archer probed: "Assassin guarding the door and Caster lurking inside, the fact that these two are working together is obvious; this is not a rare thing."]

["Hehehe—"]

[Archer's words almost made Caster laugh out loud: "You actually say I'm working with that guard dog? And with that Assassin who is at most a pawn?"]

Gatekeeper: "Hey hey, although I was summoned by you, saying that is too much."

Medea: "Yes, you're not even as good as a guard dog; you didn't even notice the enemy running in."

Gatekeeper: "..."

[Archer: "Actually calling him a pawn..."]

[Medea: "That's right, in the end, that guard dog doesn't even have a Master."]

[Archer: "What! Caster, you actually broke the rules?"]

["Hehehe! What's strange about me, a magician, summoning a Servant?"]

[Medea sneered: "Winning the Holy Grail War is easy. I'm trying so hard just because I'm considering things after the war."]

[Archer mocked: "Ha? You say it's easy for you to defeat us? Just by you, a witch who only knows how to run away?"]

["Witch!"]

[Medea's eyes suddenly became extremely fierce; she didn't know how this bastard in front of her knew her true identity.]

Kayneth: "Who exactly is this woman? How can she break the rules and summon a Servant?"

Waver: "Emiya said she's a witch, and she's very angry; it's obvious she doesn't like the title of witch."

Kayneth: "A witch from the Age of Gods... damn it, this range is not small!"

Atalanta: "..."

Regarding Caster's identity, except for Feng Xi and Archer who are cheating, only Atalanta, who was on the same boat, knew, but she didn't mention it in the group.]

After all, Caster's reputation is really not very good.]

Oh, Heracles must know too, but as a Berserker now, he can't say Caster's identity.]

[Medea: "Hoo—that's right, you can't hurt me here. I will give the person who calls me a witch the corresponding punishment!"]

[Archer: "That's what you said, then let's try one strike. If it still doesn't work, then leave it to Saber to solve it later."]

[The verbal battle is over, and next is the action.]

[Video paused.]

[Question: What will be the outcome of the next battle?]

[A: Archer fails, and Emiya Emiya Shirou Emiya has his Command Spells taken by Caster.]

[B: Artoria defeats Kojiro Sasaki, breaks in, and joins forces with Archer to defeat Caster.]

[C: Archer defeats Caster alone, and the opponent retreats.]

[D: Caster successfully defeats Archer, but Emiya Emiya Shirou Emiya successfully escapes.]

[Quiz time is 1 minute; start answering now.]

Rin Tohsaka: "It's actually four completely different results..."

Blonde Rin: "Archer versus Caster, huh."

Blonde Rin: "Although Archer seems to be hiding something, Caster is clearly not a vegetarian; as a magician of the Age of Gods, she has many means to deal with an Archer alone."

Zabiko: "But Archer looks more cunning, while Caster... seems a bit not very smart."

Medea: "!!!"

Medea: "(^_^#) Little girl, who are you saying is not smart!"

Zabiko: "(-_-|||)"

Archer: "Hmm, a very objective evaluation; you have a good eye."

Medea: "Hmph,╰(`□)╯ just you want to defeat me, don't dream!"

[Time's up, quiz ends.]

[Now announcing the answer.]

[Archer quickly rushed toward Caster, bent down to dodge the opponent's magic, and projected Kanshou and Bakuya with both hands.]

[With a flash of blade light, Archer's right hand cut open Caster's upper body, and his left hand slashed at the opponent's waist, but there was no feeling of cutting an object, and no blood flowed out.]

[Fake! This Caster is a fake body!]

[And Emiya Emiya Shirou Emiya saw Archer's attack method; for some reason, he subconsciously remembered it in his mind and began to imitate it unconsciously.]

[Although he hated the Archer in front of him, the opponent's strength was indeed very powerful.]

[For some reason, this dual-blade fighting style gave him a very familiar feeling; he even thought this was a move he could do just by raising his hand.]

[He had learned some swordsmanship from Saber before, but no matter how he practiced, he couldn't grasp the mystery.]

Nameless: "...Is this guy an idiot! At this time, instead of taking the opportunity to escape, he's observing, uh, his own swordsmanship."

Archer: "(ーー゛)"

Househusband: "..."

Don't say it, it's embarrassing—

He wanted to rush in and punch the self in the video twice, and ask what exactly his brain was thinking.]

He finally understood the feeling of Archer wanting to kill his past self!]

["What a pity, Archer."]

[Caster appeared in mid-air, nine magic circles appeared around her, and then a purple beam of light half a meter thick greeted Archer.]

["Boom boom boom—"]

[The ground was melted by the hot magic beam, and then collided with Archer's Kanshou and Bakuya.]

[Caster showed a confident smile on her face, floating in mid-air looking at Archer, not in a hurry to attack.]

[Caster, who possesses High-Speed Divine Words, can be said to be very inflated.]

[After all, she has the advantage in mana, and this is her magic territory; as a magician of the Age of Gods, isn't it normal to look down on the unknown Archer.]
