Alice Phil stared with bated breath as the battle unfolded in the crystal ball.

The ominous thing that Saber had prophesied was already evident.

In terms of the characteristics of the Servant class, Saber has an overwhelming advantage over Caster. When she reaches the level of the Heroic Spirit of the Sword, her magic resistance is greatly enhanced. If Caster had used magic as his main weapon and put up a fierce resistance to Saber head-on, he would have no chance of winning.

But

Caster is a magician who can summon demons.

Saber's magic resistance is only useful if someone uses magic against her. But it can't stop Caster from calling the beast from another world. And once those magical beasts are summoned, they will materialize, so that they have a threat power different from magic. The teeth and claws of the monster have the same attack power as the sword. Saber can only rely on his sword and body to deal with these monsters.

But despite this, Saber, who is the most capable in weapon warfare, will not be afraid of any magical beasts from another world. There is no doubt about it. But this can only be done without any damage to her body.

The battle in the forest reflected in the crystal ball is by no means an optimistic scenario.

Saber didn't back down in the face of the monster tentacles that kept attacking. Still maintaining a rapid attack posture. As Saber waved the invisible sword in his hand, monsters were split in two in the air. And the hordes of tentacles couldn't get even closer to the Servant girl.

Saber is perfectly capable of defending against monsters, but the monsters are attacking in waves like waves, which also means that Saber has entered a dilemma of full defense.

Saber could fight off the enemy with her fierce swordplay, but Caster only watched from a distance as she fought her hard. Saber didn't even get close to Caster, who was the leader of the monsters.

Monsters with tentacles are constantly giving birth to new tentacles where they are cut off. And from the blood that soaked the entire earth, endless monsters continued to pour out. The monsters surrounded Saber layer after layer.

The invisible sword and the monsters that are constantly summoned to appear enter a state of complete confrontation. This meant that Caster was in charge of the battle. The magician was not in a hurry to win, but only mobilized the forces needed to deal with Saber step by step, so the battle entered a stalemate.

From a tactical point of view, Caster took a protracted approach. He did this to exhaust Saber and exhaust all his strength, and then defeat Saber in one fell swoop. And Saber had completely jumped into Caster's trap.

If Saber hadn't been injured, maybe the battle would have been different, and dealing with these rabble would have been a piece of cake for Saber. But now Saber's left hand was trapped by a spell. Saber's expression can be seen through the crystal ball, and she is clearly anxious that she can't fight as much as she wants.

"Isn't there a display of another Master entering the forest now?"

Kiritsugu's inquiry came from behind Alice Phil. Clearly, Kiritsugu didn't take Saber's predicament to heart. Alice Phil was disappointed in Kiritsugu. However, Kiritsugu didn't seem to care about his wife's disappointment in the slightest, and just silently prepared his weapon. Kiritsugu packed all kinds of grenades and small machine guns in the suspenders under his coat, this situation is unbelievable, this is the preparation of the magician who is about to go to the battlefield, but Alice Phil sees that the holster around Kiritsugu's waist contains a single-shot magic gun that Kiritsugu only has at critical moments. She understood that her husband was ready to fight.

"Maiya takes Elle and escapes from the castle. Flee in the opposite direction to Saber."

Hearing Kiritsugu's order, Maiya nodded without hesitation. Alice Phil couldn't hide her inner wavering.

"Isn't it okay to stay here?"

"Saber fighting far from here means that the castle is no longer safe. It's dangerous because there are people who think the same way as me. 」

Perhaps someone really wanted to take advantage of the fisherman's profit and attack Saber's master when he left the castle. If you want to kill the Master, the best time to do so is when the Master and the Servant are acting alone.

Which is the easier enemy to defeat, the Master under the protection of the Servant or the magician who stands alone? If it is Kiritsugu, he will definitely choose the latter. If there is another magician who chooses the same answer as Kiritsugu, the magician will definitely snipe Alice Phil who is still in the castle as soon as he knows that Saber is fighting alone.

I finally can meet Kiritsugu again, but I have to be separated. This made Alice Phil very uneasy. In particular, she became more and more uneasy when she realized the pain and contradictions hidden in her heart. But staying by Kiritsu's side can only become a burden. The rendezvous with Kiritsugu in the castle was an exception.

Alice Fell pondered calmly in her mind, and at last she realized the source of her uneasiness. Not because of parting with Kiritsugu, but because he was going to act with Maiya. Kiritsugu originally planned to let Maiya protect Alice Phil, but Alice Phil still couldn't shake off her dislike for Maiya.

However, Alice Phil would not oppose Kiritsugu's course of action because of personal feelings.

"I see. 」

At the moment when Alice Fell nodded quietly.

「？！」

A new sting appeared in Alice Phil's magic circuit. This is the message that the Forest Barrier feeds back.

"What's wrong? Alice. 」

"Kiritsugu, just as you feared. It looks like a new enemy has entered the forest. 」

—————— Dividing Line——————

After defeating three of them, Saber sensed the enemy's intentions.

I don't know why, but the overly fragile tentacle monsters and Caster's unnatural level of self-confidence are a wake-up call to Saber's intuition.

After defeating ten. Saber finally confirmed the cause of the uneasiness.

The number of enemies has not decreased. No matter how many you knock down, new enemies are added. Caster's summoning magic called for reinforcements from the Atlas one after another.

Even if that's the case, it doesn't matter. Saber made up her mind. No matter how large the number of enemies is, as long as this side is defeated with double momentum. Driven by a boiling fighting spirit, Saber's sword suddenly sped up.

Thirty. Because the enemies were not reduced at all, Saber's mind began to flash with anxiety.

Fifty. Saber understood that it would be futile to count any further. Becoming a seedbed for monsters to appear, not just the blood and flesh of children who have become hostages, Saber is in a corner of his vision, and discover new monsters born from the corpses of defeated monsters. I see, no wonder there has been no reduction. It's like a defeated monster will regenerate indefinitely.

In this way, it is a contest of mana reserves. Realizing that it would be a protracted battle, Saber immediately slowed down the momentum of the sword. You can't support it with all your might. I had to hunt as hard as I could.

Caster's magic is supposed to be limited. If you repeat the summoning and regenerating demons in this way, sooner or later your magic power will dry up. The question is whether Saber will be able to support it until then.

Once again, Saber was annoyed by the fact that he couldn't use his left hand. With only one right hand swinging the sword, you have to make up for the lack of wrist strength by releasing mana. In this situation, the excess consumption of mana is a heavier burden than anything else.

Originally, if you could hold the hilt of this sword with both hands, and with a single blow with the sword of victory of the oath, you should be able to beat these filthy wastes into nothing.

Saber gritted his teeth in remorse, but continued to wield his sword. Even though the number of defeats had exceeded the triple digits, Caster smiled leisurely at Saber's struggle. Saber looked at his opponent in surprise, who didn't show any haggard expression, and then noticed the unusual density of the magic power emitted by the magic book in his opponent's hand.

"Is it ......!?"

It's the worst guess, but it probably won't be wrong.

It is the summoning magic that summons countless monsters, regenerates them, and drives them tirelessly to run to Saber's sword. And it was the book of demons that chanted the mantra.

It wasn't just a stack of paper with incantations written on it. Presumably, the book is a monster that has a large-capacity magic furnace and can perform magic with the power of a single body. Caster didn't read the spell from the page, he just drove the book freely as the source of the magic.

The Luoluo City Sect is worthy of being a terrifying treasure. If Alice Phil is Saber's regular Master, the first time she meets Caster, she should have seen through his abilities and seen that the other party is a very dangerous Servant with the ability to specialize in Treasure. In that case, Saber would not have easily fallen into a war of attrition with Caster, and perhaps would have acted more cautiously even if he was ridiculed for being cowardly.

No, regret is a sign of weakness.

Saber drank to herself. If a knight fights for glory, he will never be allowed to back down in the face of an evil like Caster. If that happens, she would have given up the greatest power and weapon she possessed, which is the righteous heart that believes in her sword.

"It's nostalgic, Joan of Arc. Everything is the same as it used to be. 」

Caster's expression was as if he were looking at the painting, watching Saber's increasingly miserable battle.

Even in the danger of being outnumbered, you will not be afraid or give in, and your eyes will never doubt victory. You haven't changed. The noble fighting spirit and the noble soul are undoubtedly the evidence of being Joan of Arc. That's clearly the case

As always, full of nonsense. But Saber suppressed his anger and single-mindedly slaughtered the miscellaneous soldiers in front of him. Refuting the other party sentence by sentence will only play into the hands of the enemy.

"Why? Why haven't you come to your senses? Do you still believe in God's protection? Do you think that a miracle will come to save you in such a desperate situation? What a sigh! Have you forgotten the battle of love? Have you forgotten the trap of the god who pushed you from the apex of glory to the god who destroyed hell! Even if you have suffered so many insults, are you still willing to be a doll of God!?"

I really want to plug that. I really want him to know what kind of verdict the sin will accept because of the frivolous delusion that takes the life of a young child. The tip of the sword couldn't touch him at all. Saber was stopped by a wall of ten or twenty heavy monsters, and it seemed too far away from Caster.

Saber rushed towards the slight gap, only to be caught in the tentacles sticking out from behind him. Although she reflexively reached out to grab it before being wrenched by the tentacles. But the thumb's disobedient left hand just slid emptily across the surface of the tentacle.

Woo

As soon as Saber stopped, his vision was completely covered by the wall of tentacles. You can only blow them away with unleashing your magic again. But this amount

In an instant, red and yellow lightning flashed, repelling the strange group.

In front of Saber, who was untied and gasping for breath, he broke into the back of a tall man in grass-blue armor.

"It's ugly, Saber. If your swordsmanship can't be more intimidating, the name of the Knight King will cry. 」

The beautiful man, whose beauty could be called a sin, threw a startling glance at the stunned Saber. It is precisely because of her ability to resist demons that she can endure this charming gaze. In contrast to the blazing of the guns, Dilumudo Audina's smile was sweet and refreshing.
