Infinite Reincarnation: I am the Monster.

Chapter 514 Kiritsugu Emiya Reappears
Souichirou Kuzuki and Caster Medea were probably too weak, so no reincarnators chose to join their side.

At this moment, the two simply watched as Bai Cangshu stepped into the barrier alone.

"I thought Saber would be the first one to come in."

The woman's voice revealed a deep sense of regret.

A dagger-like magical artifact appeared in her hand, emanating intense magical power.

I advise you not to do that.

Bai Cangshu caught a glimpse of Kuzuki Souichirou's movements out of the corner of his eye. This silent man had his arms hanging down at his sides, seemingly ready to attack at any moment.

Unfortunately, Hakusou is not a Master like Rin Tohsaka or Shirou Emiya, nor is she Saber who lacks magical energy.

He was a martial artist and had an overwhelmingly good ability to adapt to people like Kuzuki Souichirou and Sasaki Kojiro who relied on close combat techniques such as taijutsu and swordsmanship.

Moreover, Bai Cangshu considered himself a martial artist who, based solely on his physical destructive power and martial arts skills, could probably reach the level of an average Servant.

Even with the influence of this magical barrier, it wouldn't take too long to instantly kill Kuzuki Souichirou.

Kuzuki Souichirou paused, feeling a sharp pain in his neck, but he continued walking toward his goal the next moment.

He was an empty man, devoid of all meaning, like a doll. Before finding Medea, he thought his life would always be like this.

But since he had promised to win the Holy Grail War for Medea, even if he died in battle, it would still have some meaning.

The man's resolve was clear, and Medea seemed to sense it as well. She looked at Assassin, whose lips were slowly curving into a smile, and suddenly her heart sank.

A scene seemed to appear in her mind: the next moment, Lord Kuzuki Souichirou would be killed by the opponent's punch, leaving only half of his body standing in the field.

"Wait a moment!"

Medea spoke hastily, raising her head. Beneath her robes, her face no longer held the ambition of a great witch, but only the worry and pallor of a young girl.

Kuzuki Souichirou froze, having somehow appeared beside Shirakura Suku, his arms swinging out like two long snakes, stopping in front of Shirakura Suku's neck.

He turned to look at Medea, not understanding why she had called a halt. Bai Cangshu simply smiled, showing no intention of making any move, but Medea could clearly sense that strong inclination.

If I don't stop him, the other party will throw a side punch and kill Kuzuki Souichirou instantly.

"What do you want?"

Kuzuki Souichirou didn't understand. He had his fist pressed against the other man's neck, and with just one blow, he could have shattered the man's cervical vertebrae.

But judging from Medea's reaction, it was as if she herself had become a hostage being held hostage by the other party.

"Join our alliance, Medea, so that Souichirou Kuzuki can live."

Kuzuki Souichirou's numb expression shifted slightly. His prediction was correct; he had indeed become Assassin's hostage without even realizing it, dragging Medea down with him.

In that instant, Kuzuki Souichirou wanted to attack his opponent directly.

But Medea shrieked and stopped her.

"do not want!"

"I beg you, Souichirou!"

"Don't die! Please don't die!"

The great witch's aura vanished, leaving only a girl who was afraid of losing her.

Seeing Medea like this, Bai Cangshu felt somewhat bored. It's no wonder that in almost every storyline, even when he gained some initial advantage, the combination of Caster Medea, who summoned a Servant on her own, and "the strongest class, Teacher Souichirou Kuzuki" almost always ended in a swift and crushing defeat.

Compared to other combinations, these two have far too many weaknesses.

Being too concerned about the other person can actually make each of you a burden to the other.

boom!
A gunshot rang out suddenly. Medea and Kuzuki Souichirou were both startled, but Shirakō Ju suddenly snapped his head back, as if his neck had been broken.

The bullet flew past the spot where Bai Cangshu's head had originally been.

[Perception of Killing Intent].

This equipment effect, which had gradually lost its effectiveness since Bai Cangshu acquired [Mind Network], is now showing its power again.

After forcing Medea to give up resisting, he felt a murderous intent locked firmly in his temple.

He was very familiar with that feeling; Bai Cangshu had his forehead locked in that way no less than a hundred times.

Those are firearms.

In this world, the mage, who was accustomed to using firearms in combat, also knew very well that this was probably the Emiya Kiritsugu who had not died for some reason.

boom!
boom!
Two more shots rang out, but Bai Cangshu took a step forward, his figure already moving more than dozens of meters, leaving behind afterimages like a ghost.

At this moment, Kuzuki Souichirou realized that his opponent was not unresponsive to his attacks, but rather that his opponent was so fast that he was confident that he could kill him without injury even if his hand was only a few centimeters away from his neck.

Medea immediately came to Souichirou Kuzuki's side.

"Souichiro-sama, it's that guy underground..."

Souichirou Kuzuki remained silent. Kiritsugu Emiya should have been sealed underground, so how could he suddenly appear here?

No, he wasn't even sure if the current Kiritsugu Emiya was still the same person he used to be.

Medea was quick-witted; she had already sensed that among the group of people was Kiritsugu Emiya, their adopted son, before they even entered the mountains.

"If we remove the barrier now, it will probably throw these people into some chaos."

boom!
Before the words were even finished, a figure had already been blasted into the wall.

She turned around and saw the Servant who had been identified as Assassin Tao Pai Pai standing tall in place, while a corner of Ryudou Temple had been destroyed.

Now~
At that moment, the magic barrier flickered, and the next instant, several gems pierced through it. Rin Tohsaka and Shirou Emiya finally crossed the barrier of the mountain gate and arrived at the stone plaza.

"Teacher Ge Mu..."

Soichiro Kuzuki is a colleague of Taiga Fujimura and a teacher. He has always lived at Ryudouji Temple, but his presence here at this moment is clearly not something that can be explained by coincidence.

Having barely broken through the magic barrier, Rin Tohsaka immediately grabbed Shirou Emiya and with a wave of her hand, both the Heroic Spirit Emiya and Saber were already in front of her.

After Tao Pai Pai entered the barrier, they suddenly discovered that the mountain gate was blocked and they could not enter at all. They also realized that the Master and Servant here probably wanted to divide them up and defeat them one by one.

After quickly breaking the barrier, they discovered that the scene of Assassin battling Caster that they had imagined did not happen.

Qiu Luo immediately looked for Tao Bai Bai's figure. The next moment, he was stunned and saw a familiar black-haired man getting up from the ruins. On his somewhat tattered shoulder, a large number of flesh buds were constantly moving and beginning to recover.

"This is...Emiya Kiritsugu?!"

Emiya Shirou also stared at that figure, frozen in place.

Ming!
A powerful gust of air roared, and in the next instant, it pierced directly through Kiritsugu Emiya's forehead.

puff!
His head seemed to explode like a balloon, and Shirou Emiya's vision was instantly stained red as he stared blankly as his adoptive father slowly collapsed once again.

He turned his head slowly, and the magic circuits in his body seemed to light up little by little. As if by instinct, a longsword began to appear in his hand.

"You... Tao Pai Pai... you actually..."

He was rambling incoherently, and his steps moved uncontrollably toward Tao Pai Pai.
