Looking at Kuzuki, who was lying in a pool of blood and completely lifeless after Archer had dealt with Caster, Shirou turned his face away, and a bit of unbearability flashed through his eyes.

Of course, Shirou didn't blame Archer too much. It was Kuzuki who still clung to Caster after his death, but he still felt a little regretful...

Compared to Shirou, although Rin also felt a little pity, the relief of solving Caster was still better.

Looking at the temple left by Medea and the magic power for hundreds of people, Rin felt a little nervous in her heart.

Although I feel a little guilty in my heart, there is no way to return the magic power transformed by Life Force. It would be a waste if I don't use it.

Therefore, after thinking very carefully for more than two seconds, Rin turned around and looked for the formation of this temple as if there was no one else around.

It's Saber and Berserker, you all seem to be cheating. What's wrong with me receiving a little bit of the magic left by others? This can only be regarded as waste utilization!

Um! Very confident.

Looking at Rin who seemed to be looking for something, Saber asked curiously, "Rin, what are you looking for?"

"Saber, if I remember correctly, our alliance disappeared the moment Caster was eliminated."

Because of the tension in Archer's words, Saber raised her sword eyebrows and once again tightened her grip on the sword in her hand.

At this moment, Rin, who was looking left and right in front of a house with his hands behind his back, looking for something without looking back, said, "Look for the formation eye. Such huge magic power has disappeared because the owner has disappeared. If left alone, it will slowly dissipate and disappear."

"Huh?" Shirou heard what was said, turned around and looked at Rin with his trouser pockets in his eyes with a strange expression, "Tohsaka-san, are you saying you want to use these magic powers? This is the Life Force of the people in this town..."

"Do you still have to ask?" Rin turned around, put one hand on her hips and showed a matter-of-fact expression, "I'm not going back anyway, so wasting it and letting it dissipate is not Tohsaka Residence's style!"

"Uh..." Shirou's mouth twitched.

"Hehehe..." Illya, who was sitting on Berserker's shoulder, chuckled, "It's useless, Rin, even if you get these magic powers, you can't beat me. The quality and quantity of the magic power I can use are far beyond what Caster has collected."

"Cut!" Rin turned away and clenched his fists and cut hard, then folded his hands and snorted, "Don't underestimate Illyasviel. Don't you just have a connection with Fuyuki Leyline and you can use the magic power flowing in the spiritual veins? As long as you cut off that connection, you are not invincible!"

"Then can you cut it off?" Illya asked, shaking his legs.

"Cut!" Knowing that she really couldn't do it, Rin cut it loudly again, and cursed several times in her heart. To put it simply:

Who in this world doesn't know that Fuyuki Leyline belongs to Tohsaka Residence! Did you pay me and then you use it? Who agreed? Damn magic thief!

At this time, Saber suddenly thought of something, pulled Shirou to carry everyone, and suggested in a low voice. "Shirou, I think what Rin just said is not unreasonable. Now that the magic power is scarce and cannot be replenished, you can also use the magic power left here."

"Hmm? Can I use it?"

"If Rin finds the formation first, there is hope."

"But I..." Shirou scratched his head and laughed, "Magecraft doesn't know anything about that kind of thing..."

"Hmm..." Saber thought for a moment, and then glanced at Illya, who was still sitting next to Berserker with his hair cut, legs shaking, and still humming.

"Shirou, I think you can find..."

Before Saber could finish speaking, Illya seemed to have noticed the conversation between the two, and spoke first, "Shirou, the contract between you and Saber can be regarded as the reason why the summoning was unsuccessful, so Saber cannot receive your magic power normally."

"Huh? So is there a way to make Saber receive my magic power?"

"Well... if Shirou asks me for help, I can tell you how to use the magic power that is leaking here and help you."

Looking at Illya with an innocent and cute smile on her little face, Shirou felt warm in her heart.

It's so healing!

In the distance, Rin, who was looking for the formation eye, couldn't help but speed up his search after hearing Illya's words. At the same time, he cursed: Are you trying to steal from me?!

"Archer! Help me find it together!"

Rin called out in her heart.

"Shirou!"

At this time, Saber shouted, then looked directly at Shirou and nodded slowly.

"Uh... but..." Shirou looked at Rin hesitantly, "Tohsaka classmate first..."

Illya, who was carefully held by Uncle B and put his little feet on the ground, said, "Rin just said that the magic here is ownerless, so there is no need to worry about this kind of thing."

"Uh... then... I'll give it a try, thank you, Illya."

"Yeah~~" Illya shook his head and chuckled again, "You're welcome, Shirou."

"Then I'll give it a try..."

As soon as Shirou finished speaking, he turned around and was about to shamelessly look for the so-called formation eye, but suddenly he felt as if something was collapsing little by little. At the same time, Rin and Illya also felt it.

"God... the temple is collapsing?!"

The corner of Rin's mouth twitched, and she watched blankly as the stored magic power for hundreds of people dissipated at a speed visible to the naked eye. Most of it seeped into the spiritual veins, while the remaining small part dissipated in the air.

Finally, Rin held her head and let out a cry of collapse, "My magic power!"

"No, that can't be considered yours, right?" Shirou just twitched his lips in embarrassment.

"Shut up! Whoever finds such an ownerless thing belongs to the same person! Ah... my magic power... I wish I could move faster..."

Ignoring the regretful and frantic Rin, Illya tapped his chin with his index finger and raised his face to analyze. "It may be some kind of self-destruct program that will automatically destroy itself after losing its owner. After all, he is also the Magecraft master of Age of Gods. It is reasonable to add this method to the formation in the temple."

At this time, the "self-destruct program" in Illya's mouth - Shinji Matou, who was standing outside the door of Ryuudou Temple, threw the useless half of the bricks into the forest nearby and prepared to go back.

However, before he could get down the first step, Rider, who didn't know why he came to such a place at such a time, was caught and disappeared with Rider in an instant.

Twin Mansion and Shinji were looking at Bazett in bewilderment at Bazett, who was doing something to him in the name of checking whether he was okay.

Have you been kidnapped? No, Sister Bazett why did you kidnap yourself when you had nothing to do?

"Great, there seems to be no problem." Bazett stopped touching his hand here and there, and then looked directly at Shinji with some seriousness. "Listen up, Shinji, even if you are an acquaintance, it is very dangerous to be involved in Servant's battle as an ordinary person!"

Hearing this, Shinji had already roughly guessed the reason why he was abducted here.

It turns out that while patrolling tonight, Rider discovered the temporary special operations team composed of Saber, Archer and Berserker to attack Caster, and discovered the possibility that the other party was preparing to attack Caster tonight!

After silently mourning for that hateful witch for two seconds, Rider reported his findings to Bazett.

After hearing this, Bazett also asked Rider to follow him secretly, and even gave orders to Master who could help Archer without revealing his trump card.

Of course, no help is needed, because there is no suspense in the battle at all. Saber dragged Kojirou, and the others entered the temple, and defeated Caster neatly and easily.

After another second of silence for Caster in his heart, Rider was about to leave, but as he was leaving, he spotted Shinji, who was sneakily preparing to do something with half a brick.

After witnessing Shinji destroying the temple's formation and then sneaking out as if no one was around, Rider thought for a long time and passed the information that "Shinji was found to have arrived at Ryuudou Temple alone" to Bazett.

After Bazett learned the news, he immediately issued an order: tie up Shinji and bring him back! It's too dangerous to be alone outside!

"Wait until daybreak before going back. It's easy to encounter Servant at night, which is very dangerous."

Bazett frowned, his tone unquestionable.

Before Shinji, who was still wearing clothes, could answer, Bazett looked at Rider aside and gave a new order, "Rider, please, please continue patrolling for the rest of the night, but remember to hide yourself and pay attention to safety."

Rider, who didn't realize anything was wrong, nodded lightly and turned around to leave. However, at the moment Rider had just turned into a spiritual body, he heard Shinji, who had just put on his clothes, said to Bazett:

"Sister Bazett, let me check your arm for you. Although I can't pinpoint Magecraft, I still have some research on this kind of thing."

At this moment, Rider suddenly realized something that he had just ignored - after he left, the two of them would be alone!

Immediately afterwards, Rider not only heard Bazett agreeing to such a thing, but also heard Shinji ask the other party whether he had just taken a shower.

At this moment, Rider suddenly didn't want to leave.

"I just washed it, what happened?" Bazett asked.

"Just wash it, because the instructions to sellers say that prosthetic limbs should be taken care of as well as your own body."

With that said, Shinji sat down next to Bazett, then took Bazett's hand and pretended to inspect it carefully.

Shinji What I think is actually very simple. Since you are always kind enough to check my body, it is only fair that I check it for you too. This is already the fourth time today!

I must thank you very much! I have to thank you at least four times!

At this time, Rider, who was standing outside the house, was scolding his Master (Shinji) in his heart for being a bastard!

Why did I end up with such a bottomless Master? He has no moral integrity, has a casual attitude towards the opposite sex, and is so shameless!

After thinking about it, Rider's inner complaint materialized into scratches that appeared to be scratches made by fingernails on the wall!

asshole!!

By the way, when will we do it?!

If you continue to ignore me like this, believe it or not, I will do it myself first?!
