A bizarre battle

"She was the one who moved around!"

The instant she felt the air behind her turn cold, [Jizi] used her A+ agility to scramble off Saber, raising her hands high to prove her innocence and conveniently shifting the blame.

"Jizi!"

Before Rin could react, Shirou, seeing his own house, rushed at top speed without regard for the fact that BRSR was still nearby, but he was pulled back by BRSR, who had also stood up, before he got close.

"No, Astr, don't go near that guy!"

"But Jizi, she--"

"If you're worried about what you really care about, you should listen to me even more. That Mask guy is extremely dangerous!"

Upon hearing this, [Jizi] could only shrug helplessly, pretending not to see the look Rin gave him that seemed to ask, "Is this Heroic Spirit human?" and "What happened between you two?" He turned his head toward Illya, summoned her Twin Blades, and assumed a fighting stance.

"Ara ara, do you want to fight my BRSKR?" (The novel website does not skip words.)

The silver-haired little girl tilted her head and asked in a voice that could melt your bones.

"Well," taking a breath to suppress the blood gushing from his nose, [Jizi] casually struck a pose and said, "Personally, I don't want to touch this Flesh Mountain at all, so could you please stop here?"

"Sure," Illya smiled sweetly, "As long as you hand over Rin, it's fine. I have nothing to do with you."

"The relationship is huge—" [Jizi] muttered to himself, while outwardly pointing his knife at the other side, saying, "Sorry, I can't do that—" "Speaking of which, why are you so hung up on Rin? Why don't we switch to Shirou? You care about him more anyway, don't you?" (The novel website doesn't skip words.)

"No, I don't know where you got that from," Illya said, looking a little puzzled. "But Rin treated a Lady very roughly; she needs to learn her lesson."

"Oh, I see~"

"What kind of nonsense is that! That's not your eyesight!"

Rin read a string of nonsensical meanings in [Jizi's ] eyes as she looked back, "You did something to a little loli?", "You didn't even know what happened, yet you had the nerve to glare at me!", "So you're a lolicon too!", "If that's the case, why didn't you include me?", and so on. Rin immediately exploded.

"Ahem," after all, there was still important business to attend to, and having already teased Rin, [Jizi] couldn't tease Rin any further. She turned to Illya and said, "In short, I have two questions for you—first, Rin Tohsaka is not someone you can afford to offend; second, she's been in Fuyuki for a long time, so please think carefully before you act."

"Ha?"

Even Illya, the oldest person present (just kidding), shouldn't react to this strange statement with her expression.

[Jizi] ignored her confusion and continued pointing the knife at the other side, saying:

"I'm a local Heroic Spirit, I have a hundred ways to make it impossible for you to stay!"

"Don't make me come all the way to Einzbern Castle to find you. You can call out all the srvant you know; I don't mind playing along!"

"Hey you, big black guy, you think you're so tough? I love taking down those who think they're so great!"

"I don't know her!"

Rin Tohsaka beckoned to Arhr, instructing him to quickly leave with Jizi Kiko Emiya beside her, and then earnestly explained to Shirou was looking at her with a puzzled expression.

Hey! I'm here to help you!

"Don't talk to me, I don't know you!"

"It's about loyalty!"

"Emiya- kun, right? Let's talk about the Holy Grail War..."

"My heart, oh dear..."

[Jizi] looked very hurt, while Illya, after her initial confusion, had now regained her Sin Value and said with a disdainful expression:

"While you may not be a hero like me, with your stats, you think you can fight against my brsrkr? Heh."

"Then come and get me! Come on, hit me! I've already told you I have a hundred ways to make you unable to stay, and you can't do anything about it! But if you can stop now, I'll definitely reward you handsomely in the future—Holy crap! You're really going to hit me!"

Illya probably got annoyed too, and didn't give [Jizi] a chance to continue her nagging. She waved her hand, and the mountain-sized brsrkr brandished his blunt weapon and attacked [Jizi].

Although she said she didn't know [Jizi], Rin was actually very worried. However, she remembered that this was always the way this girl acted. Since she could still act so confidently, it meant that she knew what was going on, so she decided to leave it to her.

This kind of illogical trust was something only Tokiomi Tohsaka and [Jizi] had in Rin Tohsaka's life, even more than what Kiko Emiya, who had devoted herself to her for years, had achieved. It wasn't that she was particularly aloof; it was just that as she grew older, wholehearted trust became increasingly difficult, especially for someone as precocious as her and Magecraft. Tokiomi and [Jizi], on the other hand, had left a deep mark on her heart during her childhood, before her worldview was fully formed.

However, if brsrkr is handed over to [Jizi], it means that Rin will have to face Shirou Emiya directly. Seeing Kiko Emiya on her back, who has no wounds but looks abnormal and has lost consciousness, she is really a little uneasy.

Let me explain the situation first.

"That Emiya -kun—ah?!"

Before Rin could even speak, Saber stepped between the two, holding his sword horizontally. While not overtly hostile, it was certainly not friendly.

"Sabr? Tohsaka-- "

Shirou looked confused as well. Didn't Jizi say before that she wanted to form an alliance with Tohsaka, and did Saber also say that they could talk about it?

"I'm sorry, Rin Tohsaka, I can't be sure if your mind has been controlled by Assassin, so I can't let you get close to my Assassin."

"Ha?"

Rin added another new meme to her repertoire. She twisted her lips into a bizarre angle and stared at Saber with the look of someone eyeing a rare animal:

"Are you talking about Ji... cough cough, I mean Asashin has the ability to manipulate people's hearts? Are you kidding me? If she could really do that, wouldn't she have won the last war so easily?"

"Regardless, those are facts I witnessed with my own eyes—so please don't come any closer."

Rin, upon hearing this, said something more—judging from Saber's appearance, she must be a medieval Knight. These kinds of heroes are usually rather rigid. Perhaps she and [Jizi] had some past conflict that made things so tense—she shrugged in the way [Jizi] often did, and called out to Shirou across Saber:

"Jizi was indeed injured, but she's recovered. She'll probably be unconscious for a while. I was going to take her to your house, but seeing how you are, I'll leave her to me tonight. -- By the way, Emiya- kun, you don't actually think we're manipulating things, do you?"

"Ah, that..."

Shirou awkwardly scratched his head. His intuition told him that Rin Tohsaka hadn't done anything wrong, but Saber didn't seem like the type to lie. However, Rin and Jizi had been together for so many years; she certainly wouldn't harm her—this was a bit of a problem. What should he do?

"Astr, I understand your worry for your family, but please be careful. They seem normal now, but they might suddenly turn on you. That's typical of Assassin; that despicable bastard has no honor whatsoever among Heroic Spirit, and the things he does are—"

How are things?

A voice suddenly rang in Saber's ear, and before the words were finished, the voice swung its sword, but missed. Only then did Saber turn her head and see that her Assassin, whom she considered her greatest enemy, was grabbing her by the collar.

"Assassin!"

Rin turned her head and saw that Illya and brsrkr were nowhere to be seen. It seemed that they had really been defeated by [Jizi]. Even though she trusted them, she was still very surprised.

"Then, Shirou Emiya, your mind has been taken over by me, Yuri! Quickly use Command Seals to order your Sven to commit suicide!"

"No, this..."

When [Jizi] uttered her first words, Saber's heart was in her throat, but thankfully, seeing Shirou's bewildered expression, her worst fears were not realized.

"Foolish Sabr, you think you can take on BRSKR head-on now? Do I need any schemes to deal with you?" (The novel website does not skip words.)

"This..."

The golden Ahoge stood upright, revealing the owner's inner turmoil, yet she had to admit the truth.

"So stand still and behave yourself—I mean, calm down and have a proper talk with Rin."

--------------A few minutes ago---------------

"Can't hit it! Can't hit it!"

With her exceptionally high agility, [Jizi] skillfully dodged brsrkr's relentless onslaught, even finding time to taunt him.

Illya, however, seemed completely unconcerned. She reverted to her previous composed and well-mannered demeanor as a noblewoman, smiling as she said:

"Hmph, even if you can still bounce around now, your durability is no match for BRSKR."

"Well, actually I just haven't moved around in a long time and wanted to stretch my legs a bit," [Jizi] said without any impatience. She jumped back to get out of brsrkr's attack range and then stretched dramatically.

"Now that your muscles and bones are almost loosened up, I'll finish you off like this."

"Hmph, what an arrogant fool. Brsrkr!"

Looking at the massive Flesh Mountain about to crush him, [Jizi] smiled slightly and snapped his fingers lightly.

--!

The black giant forcibly twisted its body just before it made contact with Jizi, brushed past her, and then stomped heavily with its large foot, leaping away into the distance as if trying to escape.

"This is..."

Illya's expression changed because she saw the Black Mist reappear in the air near [Jizi]. As Lesser Grail, she instinctively sensed that the Miasma was something she absolutely could not touch.

"What? Come and hit me then?"

"This... no, who exactly are you?"

"This problem can be left as homework for Illya to solve. Remember to bring it to class next time!"

He summoned Black Mist, but [Jizi] didn't rush to attack; he simply stood there.

"You--"

"Or Illya could do it now if she wants, you know. I love children who ask questions the most—but do you really want me to teach you step by step?" (The novel website doesn't skip words.)

"Cut!"

Realizing that there was no way to deal with this intruding Srvant, and that none of the original plans for tonight could be completed, Illya pouted unhappily and called BRSrkr back.

"Good girl~ Although I should take you home, unfortunately I have some things to take care of on the other side, and I'm not exactly well-off, so you should go home— Illya, are you alright?"

I hope you can still smile when we meet next time.

Making threats in the guise of a little girl doesn't seem intimidating at all; instead, it's incredibly cute. [Jizi] watched Illya turn and leave, took off her Mask, wiped the blood from her nose, and then dispersed the Black Mist before moving towards Rin.

P. S. 1. My birthday is coming up soon. My original plan was to save up some chapters over the next few days and then release a big post on the day to celebrate. However, looking at the calendar, I'll be out and about all day, so it'll be too late. Sigh. So I'll just try to write and post one chapter at a time. Finals are so busy, and on top of that, I also took on a part-time job. Sigh...

P. S. 2. Another year has passed without me even realizing it... I'm no longer seventeen... but seventeen years and... what month is it?

P. S. 3. I haven't checked this; there might be a few places where square brackets were missing or there might be typos. Please forgive me...

P. S. 4. Also, it seems the censored chapters have been released? But the censored content is still gone... I don't dare to post it again, like the C Route epilogue... So let's just happily leave it hanging like this, hahahahahahaha.
