"I didn't expect you to come here stupidly. 」

As if they were laughing at the fast running Shirou and the others, the Assassin and Shirou ran side by side about ten meters apart.

"In this case, is it okay to come out directly? Although there are exceptions, isn't the Servant of the Assassin rank mainly focused on assassination? 」

"It's okay, it's not you who we're waiting to hold back, although we're not good at head-on combat, but it's more than enough to deal with those two little girls!!"

The black shadow wearing the skull mask casually threw out a knife, and while still moving at high speed, the knife seemed to be unaffected, and the invisible speed of the blow accurately went towards the forehead of Illya flying in the air.

There was no way to dodge, the distance between the two sides was about ten meters, but this distance was only a step away for Servant, and the rapid attack would reach the target in less than a second, and all Illya could do was show a stunned expression and wait for the attack to come.

"Trace On!"

'Bang'!

"What......!?"

The Assassin made a somewhat inexplicable sound, and it was only natural that he would be surprised, because Shirou had pulled out a random branch from the tree next to him and bounced off his attack, and he was not the only one who was surprised.

"Strange magic, why can you see through my attacks?"

"It's not that I saw through your attacks, and in the face of such attacks that can't be seen with the naked eye, I can only deduce the trajectory of your attacks based on my previous combat experience and the way I saw your attacks before. 」

"I see, then here's the problem, if you were a little faster or slower just now, that little girl would have died. 」

"Ha, as an ordinary human, how can I be faster than you as a Servant, then what I have to do is simple, just swing the weapon in my hand with all my might. 」

"Ordinary human ...... How dare you say that you are moving at the same speed as me in this undeveloped forest? 」

The three short knives galloped like lightning, and this time, Miyu reacted in time, wielding Safiya to create a protective shield to block the Assassin's attack.

"Brother, you go over first, and I'll leave it to me and Illya. 」

"I'll leave it to you, but ......."

"It's okay, brother, Miyu and I are enough to deal with this guy. 」

「…… That's really reliable sisters, okay, please, Illya!

"What a stupid choice. 」

Looking at the departing Shirou, the Assassin did not stop him, but stopped his tracks.

"While you have some A-class magic costumes, it's not wise to deal with the Servant alone. 」

"It's okay, all we have to do is take you down. 」

"So, you're going to leave it at that!"

Three short knives at the speed of sound galloped out of the shadows of the forest. However, as if expected, Illya flew into the air without looking back, dodging the attack of the Assassin clone.

"I've seen through your attacks a long time ago. 」

Stepping on the air to protrude through the forest, Miyu, who waved his blue wand and flicked off the short knife, shot out a three-day magic pillar. The explosion of pure magic around the Assassin sealed his movements.

"Now, Illya!"

Needless to say, the partner who had already cooperated many times quickly took action, but when Illya raised her wand to her chest, several short knives shot out from the shadows behind her, and the short knives that exceeded the limit of the naked eye were aimed at the vital parts of the human body, and it was impossible to dodge at this time, but if she wanted to protect herself, time was more than enough for Illya.

"Ruby, full physical defense!"

Brilliant magic covers Illya's entire body, thereby increasing her body's physical defenses. However, although the dagger's attack was blocked, its impact was definitely transmitted to Illya, forcing Illya to grunt.

"Hmm......"

The moment the physical defense was lifted, the Assassin, who had been blocked from action, threw out three short knives, the forehead, the right eye, and the heart, and aimed at the attack of the vital point of the human body, which was an assassination in line with the name of the Assassin. At this time, Illya had just lifted the physical defense, and the remaining time was not enough for her to defend again, and without suspense, the attack instantly arrived at Illya's petite body, like a fallen leaf swept by the wind, Illya flew out backwards and upside down.

But strangely, the blood did not come out. I saw Illya's 'corpse' in mid-air suddenly twist and turn into a wand and card.

"Oops, it really hurts. Anyway, the power of this rank card seems to come from you, and it's really ironic, and it's put on a stand by your own power. 」

Puppet!?

By the time the Assassin realized it was too late. Miyu, who came to the Assassin at some point, pushed Safia against his back and launched an attack from zero distance.

"Shafia, maximum output, cannonfire!"

The sheer magical bombardment caused a huge explosion, and even an Assassin who was a Servant would not be able to survive at such a distance, let alone a clone.

In an instant, the Assassin, who was heavily injured by Meiyou, turned into a point of light and dissipated. On the other side, Illya, who had completed her transformation in an instant, fell to the ground and launched a counterattack against the forest that had just attacked her.

"Ruby, max output, shotshot!"

The overwhelming blocks of mana destroyed everything in front of them, the trees cracked, the rocks turned up, and the Assassins who had lost their shelter were forced to reveal themselves, and about a dozen Assassins appeared in front of Illya and Miyu.

Reach for the Assassin's card and place it back on your thigh. These rank cards were collected by Illya and Miyu as they risked their lives in their world to defeat the irrational blackened Heroes. The cards of the Assassin rank have the ability to create clones, which is why Illya has just deceived the Assassins' eyeballs and dodged the fatal blow.

"I'm really shocked, I didn't expect you guys to be quite capable. 」

A dozen or so Assassins slowly approached Illya and Miyu. And Meiyu also fell to Illya's side.

"Illya!"

"Well, Miyu!"

Needless to say, the two who had already formed a tacit understanding already knew each other's thoughts, and Illya and Miyu took out their respective Archer cards and Saber cards and said.

"Whatever you plan to do, we're going to take you down here and end this Holy Grail War, so get out of here, Assassin!"

Illya and Miyu shouted at the same time holding up their respective rank cards.

""Tie Limit Expansion !!"
