Chapter 529

[It was truly heaven's protection; this trip actually made him just happen to dodge Archer's strike.]

[But as a price, he rolled down the stone stairs with a 'thud' and didn't stop until the middle platform.]

[Already seriously injured, he had taken a terrible fall this time.]

[But just right, he fell at the feet of the King and Kojirou, and the two who were dueling turned their heads at the sound.]

Caules: "Hiss, it looks so painful just watching."

Rin Tohsaka: "Does this count as being saved?"

Fiore: "No, although he didn't die under the opponent's blade, after such a toss, I feel like he won't survive either."

Amakusa Emiya Emiya Shirou: "Yeah, judging by the amount of bleeding, there's no saving him."

["Emiya Emiya Shirou! Pull yourself together! Damn it, having suffered such a heavy injury, did you actually fall down from the stairs?"]

[Seeing it was Emiya Emiya Shirou Emiya, the King immediately abandoned Kojirou and hurriedly picked him up.]

[Looking at the torn-open wound on Emiya Emiya Shirou Emiya's back and his pale face due to blood loss, Artoria was very anxious.]

[However, she didn't know healing magecraft either.]

[Anxious, she didn't notice that after she picked up Emiya Emiya Shirou Emiya, some yellow particles emerged from his body, successfully hanging onto his life.]

[It was Avalon; this scabbard saved Emiya Emiya Shirou Emiya's life once again.]

Zabi-ko: "Saved by Avalon again; this thing is truly a divine artifact."

Gawain: "That goes without saying. If it hadn't been stolen by that woman Morgan back then, the King definitely wouldn't have died in the end!"

Mordred: "..."

Artoria: "Alright, Sir Gawain, don't talk about the past anymore."

["Uh..."]

[Emiya Emiya Shirou Emiya gradually regained his consciousness and opened his blurry eyes; the first thing he saw was the worried King, and the unknown Servant behind her.]

[To save him, she actually ignored her back, putting herself in such a dangerous situation!]

["Ca... careful, Saber..."]

[Emiya Emiya Shirou Emiya hurriedly reminded her, wanting the King not to worry about him and to face the enemy quickly.]

[Artoria didn't care about that much; she activated the power of the Invisible Air, used wind to bind the wound, and at the same time pressed both hands firmly on the bleeding area to reduce the blood flow rate.]

[The effect was obvious; Emiya Emiya Shirou Emiya's bleeding amount became less and less.]

["There's still time; according to Emiya Emiya Shirou's recovery speed, as long as we return immediately..."]

[Artoria finally breathed a sigh of relief and at the same time remembered her situation.]

[Turning around to look, Sasaki Kojirou was standing there brazenly.]

Lancer: "He didn't Matsuwanko Matsuwanko Take the opportunity to sneak attack; are you really an Assassin?"

Gatekeeper: "I am a swordsman; although I don't know why I became an Assassin, I don't like this kind of behavior of taking advantage of people's precarious state."

[Artoria: "Assassin, why don't you attack me?"]

["That would be unromantic; no one can break a flower in an instant."]

[Kojirou laughed: "Nothing, I was just stunned. Although the expression when fighting for one's life is good, the anxious look when thinking of the master is also hard to part with, so I couldn't help but focus on appreciating it."]

[After saying that, he put away his long sword, representing that today's battle was over.]

["Tonight has been very enjoyable; I shall leave now."]

Lancer: "Hahaha, he has quite a demeanor."

Artoria: "Kojirou, you have the potential to be a knight."

Gatekeeper: "Hahaha, spare me, knights and such."

He couldn't stand the constraints of knights.]

["What? Are you going to let us go, Assassin?"]

[Artoria looked at Sasaki Kojirou in surprise.]

[She had a seriously injured Master by her Reverse Reverse Reverse Reverse Side now; logically speaking, this was the best time to be defeated.]

[Kojirou: "That's right, as long as you promise that you will complete this battle, I will let you go. It's too much of a pity for me if you, who can't go all out, can't fight me wholeheartedly."]

[It wasn't charity or sympathy, but to satisfy his own desire to fight a strong swordsman.]

[Although after letting Saber go, he would probably be severely taught a lesson by the mother fox, it didn't matter anymore.]

[The King immediately felt respect for Kojirou and said extremely seriously: "I understand, Assassin. I will definitely have a showdown with you."]

[Kojirou: "Well answered. I look forward to it, King of Knights."]

Caster: "Hmph, this guy is really unreliable."

Gatekeeper: "Thanks for the compliment."

[Just as Artoria was preparing to Matsuwanko Matsuwanko Take Emiya Emiya Shirou Emiya away, Archer rushed down straight, his dual swords pointing directly at Emiya Emiya Shirou Emiya.]

[Artoria didn't notice until Archer was close, because the opponent had completely concealed his killing intent.]

[She was also very surprised; she didn't expect the one who wanted to kill Emiya Emiya Shirou Emiya to be Archer.]

[But now it was troublesome; she was holding Emiya Emiya Shirou Emiya, and her right hand holding the sword was pressed, unable to block.]

["Clang!"]

[But this couldn't stump the King; she used attack as defense, and Excalibur collided heavily with Kanshou and Bakuya, successfully resolving the crisis.]

[And Kojirou also blocked in front of Archer at this time.]

[Just kidding, he had just let them go, and you came to block—isn't this slapping his face!]

Archer: "Hmph, meddlesome."

Rin Tohsaka: "Kojirou, your stance changed too fast."

Gatekeeper: "This isn't a stance issue, but a belief issue."

Gatekeeper: "I promised to let them leave; if I let this guy do it, wouldn't it become a joke."]

["Do you want to get in the way? Samurai."]

[Archer looked at Kojirou coldly and said: "Hmph, a mere pawn of Caster, you're worthy of fighting me?"]

["You're the one who is."]

[Kojirou mocked: "I wanted you to scare that mother fox, so I let you in, but you were afraid of death and fled from the battle; it's really disappointing."]

[It turns out he didn't fail to discover Archer; he let the opponent in on purpose.]

[It seems his relationship with Caster isn't very good.]

[The next moment, the battle started again.]

Caster: "Kojirou, you guy—"

Gatekeeper: "Hahaha, sorry, it seems our compatibility isn't good."
