The Witcher: The Journey to Transcendence from Marvel...

Chapter 231 Ethics

Artoria would never believe Wes's words.

In her mind, Wess was a cunning and dangerous enemy, and every word he uttered could be a trap.

Her resolute gaze revealed vigilance and wariness; her eyes, like a sharp blade, stared directly at Wes.

She used all her strength to slowly stand up.

The process was fraught with difficulty; her body was extremely weak due to the depletion of her magic, and every movement required tremendous effort.

Her legs trembled slightly, as if she might collapse again at any moment, but she gritted her teeth and stubbornly supported her body.

"Your magic is depleted; your Master has not provided you with sufficient magic."

Wes's words echoed in the air, his voice tinged with sarcasm.

But Artoria was not swayed by his words; her gaze remained firm, and her heart was filled with trust in Kiritsugu Emiya.

The strength of a Servant is determined by the amount of magical energy possessed by the Master.

Artoria knew this well, and she understood that her current situation was very difficult.

Without Alice providing her with magic, she was unable to exert her full power.

Kiritsugu Emiya, along with Alice and Maiya Hisau, managed to escape from the ruins.

They looked somewhat disheveled, covered in dust and blood.

Emiya Kiritsugu's eyes revealed exhaustion and worry. He saw Artoria's weak appearance and his heart tightened.

"Alice, quickly replenish Saber's magic power."

"Yes," Alice replied, but a strange light flashed in her eyes.

She used her magic, and silver threads crisscrossed and intertwined, weaving together like a rattan craft to create a pair of gloves.

Her hand stabbed directly at Kiritsugu Emiya's back.

The attack was so sudden that it caught everyone off guard. Neither Kiritsugu Emiya, Maiya Hisau, nor Artoria expected Alice to launch an attack at this moment.

Their eyes were filled with shock and disbelief, unable to believe what was happening before their eyes.

Alice's hand pierced Kiritsugu Emiya's skin and entered his body.

The movement was swift and decisive, aiming to pierce Kiritsugu Emiya's heart without any resistance.

At this critical moment, Kiritsugu Emiya demonstrated his calmness and decisiveness.

"Time Alter".

He accelerated blood flow, burned hemoglobin, and exercised his muscles, making time seem to slow down in his eyes; everyone's movements appeared as if in slow motion.

He lunged forward with all his might, dodging the sneak attack.

But a large gash was still cut open on his back, and blood was flowing freely.

However, after using the inherent time control, the world will correct the time difference between inside and outside the barrier, which will put a great burden on the body.

Kiritsugu Emiya endured the pain, pondering to himself.

Alice has been controlled.

His heart was filled with worry and anger. After he brought Alice back, he tested her but found nothing wrong.

[The Einzbern family's alchemical artifacts aren't omnipotent; they're either Caster's Noble Phantasm or his magic.]

In less than a second, Kiritsugu Emiya had already made a judgment on the current situation.

[This was all Caster's scheme. Unable to breach Saber's "distant ideal world," he turned on me, his Master. I've been tricked.]

"Bang!"

"Bang!"

"Bang!"

Hisayuu Maiya reacted quickly and pulled the trigger towards Alice.

A series of gunshots rang out, and bullets flew towards Alice like raindrops.

But all the bullets were stopped by the silver thread.

"Stop!" Kiritsugu Emiya shouted, coughing up blood as he stopped Maiya Hisau.

His voice sounded weak.

"She's just being controlled!!"

He spoke loudly, his eyes revealing his care and affection for Alice.

"What a loving couple," Wes scoffed. "Does your wife know that your assistant is your lover?"

His words were full of malice, deliberately provoking Kiritsugu Emiya's pain.

"Master??" Artoria couldn't believe her ears.

Her eyes were filled with shock and confusion; she couldn't believe that Kiritsugu Emiya would have such a secret.

Not a single mistake, not a single poem, not a single post, not a single piece of content, not a single look!

"So, Kiritsugu, you've been deceiving me all along." Alice's voice was gentle, yet tinged with coldness. "Then you might as well die now."

A giant eagle, woven from silver threads, swooped down on Kiritsugu Emiya.

The Silver Falcon is a Holmkrus created on-site using alchemy, a weapon that Irisviel brought to life.

It emits a high-pitched hiss as if a metal blade is slicing through the air, and flies like a bullet with a razor-sharp tip.

"Bang!" Kiritsugu Emiya drew his gun and fired, but the wound and pain in his back affected his aim.

The bullet missed its target and did not hit the giant eagle.

Saber wanted to rush to their aid, but Wes stopped her. "Let them sort out their own relationship problems."

"Despicable!" Artoria cursed, her words filled with anger.

But her insults were always the same two phrases, nothing new, and Wes was already tired of hearing them.

Wes's spear moved like lightning, relentlessly thrusting towards Artoria. The spear, carrying a fierce aura, streaked through the air with dazzling light. Each thrust seemed to carry immense force, sending chills down one's spine.

Artoria struggled to parry, her movements appearing extremely labored. Each strike of the spear caused her arm to tremble slightly, as if she might collapse at any moment. Her face was pale, and her forehead was covered in fine beads of sweat, but her eyes remained filled with determination and unyielding spirit.

"Are you insulting me??"

Artoria glared at Wes, her voice filled with anger and dissatisfaction.

As the Queen of Knights, she possesses her own dignity and honor, and will not tolerate insults or contempt from others.

"Don't say that, I just wanted to practice my marksmanship." Wei

A faint smile appeared on Si's face, his tone relaxed and casual, as if he didn't care about the battle at all.

At this moment, Artoria was in a weakened state, but she still stubbornly resisted Wes's attacks.

The two fighters were locked in a stalemate, evenly matched.

Their figures crisscrossed the battlefield, the clash of spears and holy swords echoing one after another, as if playing a fierce battle symphony.

On the other hand, the husband was having a passionate affair with his mistress and his wife.

The battle between Kiritsugu Emiya, Maiya Hisau, and Alice was intense and fierce.

Kiritsugu Emiya's eyes revealed exhaustion and helplessness. He had to deal with Alice's attacks while also protecting Maiya Hisau.

Hisayuu Maiya's eyes were filled with determination and loyalty as she stayed close to Kiritsugu Emiya, providing him with support and protection.

"Kiritsugu, you really like this girl."

Countless silver threads will shoot into the sky and weave into birds of prey.
