Chapter 368: Lancer
Time passed calmly, and in the blink of an eye, night once again enveloped Fuyuki City.
It was a very quiet day, with no rank cards appearing, no Dominators attacking, and even the illusion that the previous battles were illusions, but it was just the calm before the storm.
Located at the junction of Xindu and Shenshan Town, on the shore of the Weiyuan River, a fierce conflict is breaking out.
The sound of metal clashing could be heard far away, hidden in the night.
The battle was fought between two young girls, a black girl in a sailor's suit with a long knife in hand, and a red girl in a strange dress and a spear.
It looks like they are all junior high school students to high school students, but they all exude murderous and malicious intent that does not match their age.
The excessively thick killing intent seems to have seeped out the bloody aura, and if ordinary people stand here, they will definitely be frightened and unable to move, but fortunately, there is no one on the river bank in the middle of the night at this time.
The figures of the maidens alternate repeatedly on the shore, as if they were dancing, but this dance brings ruin and death.
No one can appreciate the dance of death between two peerless maidens, but no one will be innocent victims because of this.
The black girl danced the long knife, and the red girl waved the spear, and the two flew sparks in the constant confrontation, and each interplay made the heart palpitate.
From the perspective of cold weapon combat, the gun has a great advantage over the sword, and the longer length than the sword lays down its longer attack distance, which can be strong enough to take the lead in battle, greatly limiting the opponent's attack.
However, at this time, the situation of the two fighting was evenly matched...... No, it's the girl with the knife who has the advantage. Although he did not take the initiative to attack a few times, he seemed to be able to advance and retreat with ease, while the other side was the opposite, launching a fierce attack with a momentum that did not care about a qiē.
"Huang Quan, stop playing, hurry up and end the fight. My enchantment may not be able to keep enemies scouted for a long time. ”
The girl-Huang Quan's ears came with a urging voice.
"Yes, yes."
After saying a word to the communication in the spirit suit, Huang Quan swung his knife and bounced away the red girl's attack.
"I thought I could have a little fun, this is the last one, right?"
"That's right."
"You're really laid-back, and the current situation is terrible, isn't it?"
The red girl who was bounced away by Huang Quan did not attack again immediately this time, and retreated to keep her distance.
"Don't worry, the necessary preparations are already in place, even the person you are talking about is enough to deal with it."
"It's good that you're so confident...... Well? ”
As he spoke, Huang Quan noticed that the red girl suddenly jumped high, and the moonlight sprinkled on the girl's body casting a blood-red shadow. Through the moonlight, you can see the girl's long burgundy hair fluttering in the wind, slender limbs, even if the whole body is shrouded in madness, it can't hide the girl's beautiful and delicate face. On the girl's head was a pair of horns that were not human, and behind her there was a reptilian tail waddling.
Suddenly, there was a song, it was a life-threatening song, and there was a thunder along with the song, disturbing the air and forming terrifying waves, and the river was affected, rolling up a circle of ripples, and finally turned into a big wave, with the girl as the center, the sound wave began to wreak havoc on the earth.
"Cut."
Huang Quan waved the treasure sword Lion King, and a huge shadow stopped in front of her.
After a short time, when the sound finally stopped, the banks of the river had become a mess, and it looked like a storm passing.
It's just that there is no figure of Huangquan in it.
"It's too sluggish."
When Huang Quan's voice sounded, she had already appeared behind the red girl.
The sword flashed, announcing the end of the battle.
The red girl turned into particles of light and dissipated, and Huang Quan took the rank card left by the red girl into his arms.
"Mission accomplished."
Leaving the mess on the side, Huang Quan quickly left the scene.
…………
A new day arrives and the sun rises as usual.
"Yawn!"
Illya yawned and got out of her bed.
"Good morning, Ruby."
"Good morning, Illya. It doesn't look like there's any spirit today. ”
Ruby said as she circled around Illya.
"Is there one?"
Illya rubbed her eyes.
"I've been doing a lot lately, so I'm probably a little tired."
"Is Illya still thinking about what Xiao Hei told you yesterday?"
Hearing Ruby say this, Illya couldn't help but think back to yesterday's scene, which was what Xiao Hei said to herself after everyone disbanded.
"You understand what it means to be a little grail, don't you?"
With such a sentence as the opening remark, Xiao Hei showed a strict expression that he had never seen before.
In the Holy Grail Wars, the role of the Holy Grail is to absorb the souls of the dead Servants, and when there are enough of them, they can cause the Holy Grail to descend. In order to better protect the Holy Grail, the Einzberen family made it into a human form, and when it began to fulfill the function of the Holy Grail, other functions no longer had meaning, that is, the personality would collapse and disappear in the process.
"The resumption of the Holy Grail War means that Illya will once again fulfill the duties of the Little Grail. That is, you will die. ”
Pulling consciousness back from memory, even if it was said that Illya didn't feel real. However, when she saw Xiao Hei Yan's attitude, and Miyu's nervous look when she heard these words together, she knew that she had made them worried.
"I'm fine."
Shaking her head slightly, Illya ended the topic with a smile.
After changing her clothes, Illya walked out of the room.
"Good morning, Elijah."
When I came downstairs, I heard a familiar voice.
"Brother?"
Illya appeared in front of a teenager about the age of a high school student, dressed in his school uniform.
He is Illya's older brother, Emiya Shirou. However, they are not actually related by blood, and Emiya Shirou is the adopted son of Illya's father, Emiya Kiritsugu, that is, her brother-in-law.
"I woke up very early today, and it's summer vacation."
With his trademark gentle and kind expression, Shirou said.
"Brother is, do you want to go out?
"Well, today Issei came to me and said that it was the student union. Without further ado, I'll go first. ”
After saying that, Shirou waved his hand and prepared to walk towards the entrance.
“……”
For a moment, Illya wanted to call Shirou and tell her brother about her troubles, but Shirou didn't know about magic, so Illya couldn't tell it.
"Huh?"
Shirou looked back with some confusion.
"No, it's fine. Be careful on the road. ”
"Hmm. Ah, right. ”
Shirou seemed to have thought of something.
"How has Illya been with her friends lately?"
"Huh?"
"It's just that Illya has made a lot of new friends these days, right? It's nothing, I'm just asking. Then I set off. ”
With that, Shirou walked out of the door.
Illya watched Shirou's back in silence until she was completely out of sight.
