Mordred: I'm Neither Male Nor Female! (Yesterday's 2nd Update)

What happened to Emiya Shirou? Was it the wound inflicted by the Blue Lancer acting up?

Everyone was stunned, unable to understand what was going on.

In the Light Screen footage, Mordred froze for a moment before shouting, "Master, what's wrong?"

As she spoke, she warily glanced at the Blue Lancer again. This was no time to move carelessly, or she would be giving the enemy an opening.

Blue Lancer: "You're welcome to chase me, but my Noble Phantasm has the attribute of guaranteed hit—it is a causality-based Noble Phantasm. You only avoided its attack by borrowing the 'concealment' property of that helmet Noble Phantasm of yours."

"But only once. Now that I know of and have seen that Noble Phantasm, you won't be able to evade using that helmet again!"

"So if you want to keep fighting me, you'd better be prepared to die."

"And besides..."
