(But now that the knife is broken, it's not as threatening.)

Saber's complete vigilance and defensiveness, coupled with Assassin's mere possession of a broken sword, were far from enough to prevent her from getting hurt.

Even the most skilled swordsman is no different from a hand injury if his sword breaks.

Although she didn't know why Assassin's knife broke, she wouldn't hold back at this moment.

"what!"

The sword, hidden in the wind pressure, was swung out. Jian Xin's eyes narrowed, and his body leaped up, twisting in the air.

"Flying Sword Style: Tornado Flash!"

While avoiding a direct hit, he used the momentum in mid-air to stab the broken sword towards Saber's head.

"boom!"

However, Saber blocked it with one hand that was loosening its grip on the sword; the broken blade struck the gauntlet and was then bounced off.

After landing, Kenshin quickly distanced himself from Kenshin.

(As expected, using this knife to fight her is too much of a stretch.)

He frowned and said, "Kenshin has never felt such urgency before."

Even if his sword broke, he could still kill the enemy.

But this time it didn't work.

Heroic spirit!

Those were all masters on par with him; the slightest carelessness or negligence would lead to his defeat.

But Saber's timing was just too perfect this time; he didn't have time to let his Master prepare another good sword.

Moreover, both the master and the servant are now tied down on their respective battlefields.

"Bang bang bang bang!!!"

“Ding ding ding!!!”

Kirei Kotomine deflected the incoming bullets with the black keys, ensuring that Kiritsugu Emiya would not give him a second chance like that.

That near-failure step did indeed leave him drenched in sweat.

Fortunately, Assassin arrived in time.

"Tsk."

Seeing Kirei running close behind, Kiritsugu could only retreat.

Judging from his opponent's skills, close combat would be very disadvantageous for him.

"Whoosh!"

Having dodged the incoming black arrow, Kiritsugu immediately raised his gun and began firing rapidly forward.

"Bah bang bang!!"

A series of successful shots froze Kirei Kotomine in place.

"Kiritsugu."

"I've found your wife."

"Apart from the magic seal, there were no obstacles along the way."

As Maiya's voice rang in his ears, Kiritsugu's expression shifted slightly.

"She is fine, but it is said that the scabbard has been taken by Kirei Kotomine."

"Really? Then remember to be careful."

He was relieved to hear that Irisviel had been successfully rescued, but he still felt uneasy.

"Has that woman been found?"

Seemingly having guessed something, Kirei Kotomine lowered his raised hands and calmly said.

"Although it's not you going in person, we've still taken that into consideration."

"Your assistant and wife must be among the few things you care about, right?"

"!"

The more Kirei Kotomine spoke, the more intense the unease in his heart became.

And in the next second, it was confirmed.

"Would you be in pain if you lost them?"

"boom!!"

A deafening explosion rang out, and towering flames flashed behind the priest.

"."

His pupils dilated for a moment, and only then did Kiritsugu understand the source of his unease.

(Aside from the magical seal, there were no obstacles along the way.)

Maimi's words still echo in my ears, and now they sound so jarring.

He should have discovered it sooner; if he had been alerted, he might have been saved.

His hand gripping the gun tightened unconsciously.

"bomb."

"This unconventional fighting style is indeed very convenient."

"In that situation, neither of them could have survived unless it was you."

By staring at Kiritsugu Emiya's expression, Kirei Kotomine found a sense of satisfaction.

This man was indeed moved.

Once Kirei Kotomine understood this, he felt that his efforts had not been in vain.

He had been testing the waters when the woman was brought back by Assassin.

How much will Kiritsugu Emiya pay for this woman and the scabbard implanted in her body?

Having figured out the cause and effect, Kiritsugu Emiya also saw through Kirei Kotomine.

They used Alice to set a trap, luring him to the rescue.

However, Kirei Kotomine had anticipated his predicament and knew the final outcome.

Saber must be used to guard against Assassin.

He himself must confront Kirei Kotomine directly.

The only one who could move was Maiya, her assistant.

Everything was orchestrated by Kirei Kotomine!

Kirei Kotomine's ultimate goal was to lure Maiya over to join him in "trapping" Alice.

"I just wanted to know."

"You, who are known as the Magician Killer, will you grieve for the loss of others?"

"Judging from the results, it seems so."

Your heart is crying.

"Emiya Kiritsugu".

Chapter 12 12 Fight! Berserker!

"Your assistant is a human being very experienced with firearms, but when facing a magician, she probably wouldn't even imagine that I would use something as 'unconventional' as a bomb, right?"

Magic is a combination of science and technology, and Kiritsugu Emiya was an expert in this regard; most other magicians had never done so.

What's wrong with occasionally using so-called technological products?

With this "let's give it a try" mentality, Kirei Kotomine used "Irisviel" as bait to set this trap.

"You really are a guy we have to deal with."

Suppressing the pain in his heart, Kiritsugu Emiya's gaze calmed down, and he spoke in a heavy tone.

He temporarily stopped thinking about what would happen to Maimi and Alice.

Now he must get through the current situation.

Saber's scabbard has been stolen and its whereabouts are currently unknown, but it is highly likely that it is being used by Kirei Kotomine himself.

In this way, even if the other party suffers a relatively "minor" fatal wound, they will not die.

The more he thought about this, the more he felt that Kirei Kotomine was a terrible enemy.
