Apparently, the rule that protagonists never die had long since gone out of style
The clash of the holy swords sparked blindingly at the blades. Due to the height difference, Saber was forced to exert force from below to hold her own against Brsrkr, whose downward slashes were not only easier to execute but also utilized the advantage of gravity. The cracks that appeared on the ground around Saber's feet showed just how much pressure she was under.
"Aaaaaaah! Arthur!"
Brsrkr not only continued to attack sabr with his sword, but he even bent down and lowered his head, opening his mouth wide as if he wanted to use his sharp teeth to gnaw at sabr's flesh.
The pungent smell of blood assaulted her nostrils, but Sabr could not escape it. Even if she wanted to kick her opponent away or escape, her feet were already pressed into the ground, like seedlings planted in the ground, unable to move freely.
"I haven't even licked it yet, how dare you!"
Jizi spoke very quickly, and the others didn't hear what she said clearly. [ ] Novel 3W. LED. O. They only saw her throw one of the Twin Blades strips directly at brsrkr's head, trying to stop his movements.
But facing the sharp blade hurtling towards him, brsrkr neither dodged nor evaded. Just as the tip of the blade was about to strike him, he suddenly looked up and shouted—
"Drink it!"
"Holy shit!"
The last two words were naturally uttered by Jizi, because the scene before him was indeed truly "Holy crap." In ancient China, there was a skilled archer named Zan Junmo, who could not only draw his bow with his eyes closed but also hit the target every time. He could even bite the arrows shot by others. Originally, this was just a strange and unusual story, but unexpectedly, after thousands of years, this Arrow-Biting Technique has reappeared in the world.
No, brsrkr opened his mouth and used his teeth to achieve the feat of "disarming an opponent with bare hands," keeping the knife that Jizi threw firmly in his mouth, unable to move forward an inch.
Not only that, because brsrkr has bitten only a small part of the tip of the blade, the entire blade is now pointing directly at sabr's slender neck. If brsrkr simply tilts its head a few angles, it can cut a sharp wound on that smooth skin.
"Damn it, you're forcing me to do this!"
Jizi definitely couldn't let Sabr die like that, but she didn't have time to block that bizarre attack. The only way was to destroy the weapon inside Sabr's mouth.
"Silver Girl, let's have some more fun—cough cough, it's just a fantasy collapse!"
BOOM!
Heroic Spirit's Noble Phantasm is recognized by the world's consciousness, containing a vast amount of magical power and faith. The Broken Phantasm technique destroys the Noble Phantasm, unleashing its inner power to severely injure the opponent. Because Noble Phantasm are symbols of Heroic Spirit legends, no Seraph would use this skill unless they possessed a large number of Noble Phantasm to freely expend.
Throughout the entire Type-Moon World, even Gilgamesh is not short of money, has never wasted his Noble Phantasm like this; only a certain red-clad man with a silhouette dares to do so. But now, that record needs to be rewritten.
Jizi is not Heroic Spirit of this world. Her weapons are all knock-offs from other dimensions. They can be recreated as long as there is enough magic power after they are destroyed. Therefore, she can also deal damage by using Broken Phantasm.
For the same reason, her weapon contained no faith power, and the explosive force was much smaller than that of a genuine Noble Phantasm, not even reaching the level of the grenade from before. Being hit by such an explosion at close range, both Brsrkr and Saber only suffered minor scrapes, but at least Saber's neck was saved.
"Arthur! Ahhhhhh!"
After the shockwave subsided, brsrkr roared and continued his unfinished action. He pressed his hands down hard, trying to completely dislodge Saber's arms. Then, a King Arthur who couldn't wield his sword would be at his mercy.
However, things in this world are often not as wonderful as imagined. The force transmitted from [Arondight] was several times greater than before.
"Dang!"
[Excalibur] seemed to have been given a special effect, pushing upwards and pushing aside [Arondight]. If brsrkr hadn't reacted quickly, he would have been hit in the face by the sword, which shows how much force sabr used.
A more powerful force took control of sabr's body. She swung her sword repeatedly, showing no trace of her previous confusion and weakness, and even forced brsrkr to defend himself.
Sabr's every strike is heavy and aimed at weak points, completely abandoning the advantage of agility and relying solely on brute force. To an uninformed observer, it would be difficult to distinguish which one is the berserker.
These are Command Seals, the three absolute commands possessed by human Astr. They can force Srvant to act according to their commands, and even actions beyond their capabilities can be accomplished through this power.
"Oh my, as expected of the Magus Killer, you assessed the situation very well."
An ordinary Magecraft might have hesitated over the Command Seals, but Kiritsugu used them decisively, unlike Tokiomi who was conflicted, which earned him great admiration from Jizi.
Leave the rest to me.
The tactic agreed upon with Maiya was for Sabr to suppress the enemy head-on, while Jizi would seize the opportunity to strike. Although it seems that Sabr can defeat the enemy single-handedly, Brsrkr's desperate struggle should not be underestimated. It would be better to be safe and eliminate him.
Having regained the initiative through a sudden attack by SABR, BRSRKR's back was riddled with openings. This made him a natural target for the Assassin; a simple, gentle stab to the back of the neck would suffice.
"Hiss~"
The dull thud of a blade piercing flesh, followed by the sound of blood splattering.
"What..."
Jizi's knife missed its mark. In fact, she hadn't even made a move yet; she had merely crept up behind brsrkr and just raised her weapon.
Then I felt a sudden, inexplicable, sharp pain in my abdomen.
A golden sword pierced through the two men in front of him, the tip of the hilt completely disappearing into the Black Knight's body, and then the tip of the sword protruded from his back and entered the assassin's abdomen.
The intense pain dulled Jizi's thinking. She had clearly given Saber a hand signal before taking action; all she had to do was tell BRSKR not to dodge. With Lancelot's strength, even Jizi wasn't confident she could succeed in a sneak attack. Perhaps, like the arrow with the grenade attached before, it would be blocked by the opponent's divine reflexes.
Just as Jizi had predicted, before she even emerged from her stealth, brsrkr sensed her killing intent and reacted first. However, sabr did not interfere with his actions but instead seized the opportunity to launch a surprise attack, killing two people with a single sword strike.
It's likely that even brsrkr didn't expect the king to make such a move, which is why they fell into the trap. And Jizi, confident in his understanding of sabr, never anticipated things would develop this way.
"Kiritsugu Emiya... Is that you?" (The novel doesn't skip words.)
Jizi and brsrkr simultaneously turned into specks of light and dissipated into the air. The last thing she saw was sabr staring incredulously at the hand holding the sword, and from that, she deduced the outcome.
Presumably, after receiving Maiya's report, Kiritsugu Emiya did not issue a Command Seals to Saber that ordered him to "defeat Brsrkr" or "cooperate with the Assassin's plan," but rather something like "eliminate other Srvant with all your might."
Sabr seemed to be screaming, but Jizi could no longer hear him. She and brsrkr disappeared together, leaving only the blood dripping from the blade of the [Excalibur].
