Ex-Machina in Dimensional Travel

Chapter 11 Multi-line Operation

That’s right, the one fighting Saber is one of Shuul’s clones, and even the Shuul who kidnapped Gold is the same.

Shul himself did not really come here. Whether it was Karna or Gold, they were all just Shul's clones.

So where is the real Xu Er now?

No one knows, and no one can know.

The battle continued, and neither the silver Saber nor the black attacker showed any signs of fatigue.

It is understandable that Saber, as a Servant, can last so long. After all, a Servant's body cannot be viewed from an ordinary perspective.

However, the attacker's physical strength far exceeded Saber and Gold's imagination.

Gold was extremely shocked when he saw the two people fighting tirelessly. It was because he was familiar with the power of servants that he could see the horror of the attacker.

He was actually able to fight Saber back and forth. Could that guy be Saber on the red team?!

Gold made this guess because he saw the purple giant sword in the other party's hand.

After all, this type of weapon basically belongs to Saber.

As time went by, Saber at the center of the battlefield gradually discovered the clues of this conflict.

Because, from the very beginning after they met, in this brief confrontation, he could also taste some meaning from the opponent's attack.

The opponent didn't use his full strength at all!

Of course, he himself did not use his full strength at this time, but this was not a concept, because he could vaguely feel that the other party's purpose was not to [kill] him.

But another kind of thing, simply wanting to [compete] with myself.

This was truly baffling, and Saber agreed, surprised by her own feelings.

Obviously, every move was deadly, but there was not much killing intent behind each one.

The enemy in front of him was like a tranquil lake. No matter what happened, it could not cause a ripple on the surface of the lake.

It's weird, very weird.

Saber had seen countless types of enemies, but none of them had ever felt as strange as the one before him.

However, although her heart was filled with doubts, Saber's hands did not slow down, and her hands were still wielding the silver-white sword.

Because apart from those points that made him confused, the strength of this enemy also made him feel difficult.

This is one of the reasons why he chose to fight back and forth with the opponent. It's not that he didn't want to end it quickly, but that he couldn't.

Another clash of weapons. The surrounding smoke had long been blown away by the battle between the two. Under the bright moonlight, the fierce confrontation in the wilderness was particularly conspicuous.

This place is not far from the fortress of the Eugdominenia clan and is still under the surveillance of the familiars.

This is also one of the reasons why Saber is willing to continue wasting time with the other party.

After all, if we continue to drag it out, the situation will only become more and more favorable to us.

I hope the master has escaped.

This is what he thought in his heart.

From the beginning of the battle, Saber had been unable to pay attention to the surrounding situation due to the enemy's fierce attack, but he was also aware that his Master had been sent flying by the impact.

Now that he had held back the attacker, his master's escape route back to the fortress was unobstructed. He could probably wait a while and the reinforcements would probably arrive.

But it's very strange. The Master should have returned to the castle by now, but why hasn't he sent any new message?

However, before he had time to think more, the huge purple sword coming towards him brought his thoughts back to the current battle.

"Saber..."

And just after he dodged another attack, the voice of his master finally rang in his mind again. This undoubtedly put Saber, who was worried about his master, at ease, even though his relationship with his master was not friendly.

However, the Master's tone was a little strange, a tone that hinted at fear. Saber felt a little strange about it, but she did not take it to heart. She just assumed that the other party had not yet completely calmed down after escaping back to the base.

Now, he awaited the Master's next order.

"Use your Noble Phantasm."

"...!"

......

----

......

On the highway at night.

A pickup truck was driving on such a night road. In the back of the pickup truck was a blonde woman with a thick pigtail behind her.

A pair of purple eyes stared blankly at the ordinary night sky.

At this moment, the originally peaceful atmosphere was broken by an object that suddenly broke in.

Above the sky, a golden meteor suddenly appeared in the night sky.

An expression of surprise suddenly appeared on the blonde woman's face, and her eyes followed the trajectory of the meteor closely.

Then, as if she remembered something, the woman changed her confusion and immediately jumped to the side of the car and hung next to the door. The driver in the driving seat was inevitably shocked to see the woman being so bold.

"Miss, it's very dangerous for you to do this. Please sit back."

As the driver was driving, his eyes moved back and forth between the woman's face and the road in front of the car.

Originally, he agreed to give the other party a ride because of the other party's request. If a safety accident occurs because of this kind of thing, that would not be acceptable.

"I want to get off here."

The woman spoke, but the driver did not immediately follow her orders because:

"That won't do. We're in the middle of nowhere. If we leave you here, what if you run into danger?"

But despite the driver's persuasion, the woman hanging outside the car window remained unmoved.

Instead, he continued speaking with a determined look on his face.

"sorry to bother you."

As she said this, a strange glimmer appeared in the woman's purple eyes.

Somehow, the driver who was trying to persuade the other party suddenly stepped on the brakes.

The car stopped steadily by the roadside. After the woman picked up her luggage in the car, she said a simple goodbye and thank you to the driver.

After watching the car heading back, the woman breathed a sigh of relief for some reason.

Da da da......

At this moment, in the originally quiet environment, a crisp sound of footsteps suddenly sounded behind the woman.

She took a deep breath and turned to look at the person coming from behind.

"[Question] Are you the Ruler?"

It was a slightly childish voice. The woman was a little surprised, but she didn't take it to heart. She just thought it was the voice of the visitor disguised by magic.

But when she really saw the appearance of the person, she was stunned.

......

Chapter 12 Contact

Looking at the appearance of the person before him, Ruler could not consider him as a Master no matter what.

And it was quite a coincidence that after the initial surprise, Ruler came to his senses and found that the other party was indeed not a Master, let alone a Servant.

It is very intriguing that the little girl in front of me knows her identity.

Ruler narrowed his eyes, observing the strange girl carefully.

Although the other party is not a participant in this Holy Grail War, since he knows my identity, he is at least someone who knows about the world of magic.

Ruler would not let down his guard simply because the other person was a child. After all, the child in front of him might actually be an old man who had lived for an unknown amount of time.

After all, who can say for sure about the magician's affairs?

However, even though she was still wary, Ruler did not ignore the stranger's question. She responded honestly.

"Yes, I am indeed Ruler. I wonder what you want from me, little sister?"

But although it was a question, the other party's tone was more like a statement.

In addition, Ruler has no reason to hide his identity, at least when facing those who know the truth, he does not need to deliberately conceal it.

Besides, the opponent hasn't shown any hostility so far. In that case, Ruler will definitely respond with goodwill.

......

"...?"

Xiuer tilted his head and stared at the face of the blonde woman in front of him with curiosity.

He was a little surprised by the other party's reaction. He had clearly revealed the other party's identity directly, but the servant did not react at all and directly admitted the identity.

Although he was still a little wary, he wondered if the other party had underestimated him.

After all, he is somewhat self-aware of his appearance. Isn't it suspicious enough that someone like him suddenly reveals the other person's identity?

Yes, the attire worn by Shuul who met this Ruler was different from those of his clones who fought against the Servants.

He changed out of the mysterious cloak that concealed his entire appearance and went straight back into the modern attire he wore in the first world.

After all, he didn't need to disguise himself. After all, the situation of [identity exposure] had no effect on Xiuer at all. He was not from this world at all.

However, now, Xiuer is not showing his original appearance. He is still interacting with Ruler in the skin of a human.

"What's wrong?"

Since Xiuer didn't respond for a long time, Ruler didn't know what to say for a moment.

It was obvious that the other party suddenly came to me and explained his identity, but after I admitted it, I didn't take any more action.

Except for the puzzled look on his face with his head tilted.

Did I say anything weird? I just acknowledged my identity.

But then again, it's obviously you who speaks strangely, so what kind of weird habit is that?

Seeing that Xiuer had not responded yet, Ruler became more and more confused.

"【Reminder】The Red Master has sent out a Servant to kill you..."

This short sentence revealed news that surprised Ruler.

why?

Killing Ruler and himself should not have any meaning. Could it be that the red team has some hidden secret?

Thinking of this, she withdrew her thoughts and looked at the person in front of her with a serious face.

This [child] seemed to know a lot of things, and she could tell that the other party was waiting for her on the path she had to take.

"Who are you? Why did you come to me? What's your purpose in telling me this news?" As he asked this, Ruler's eyes lit up.

However, Xiuer did not answer Ruler's question, but continued to elaborate on his own.

"...The Black side also sent out Servants to repel the Red Servant, hoping to win your friendship and bring you to their side."

"this......"

Ruler's eyes widened. She had never imagined that in this extraordinary Holy Grail War, both factions would simultaneously target her.

The only difference is that one side wants to win me over, while the other side wants to kill me.

What surprised her even more was that the person who told her this information was a strange girl who had nothing to do with the Holy Grail War.

No, it should be said that the girl who knew such information was probably not an "unrelated person".

"How did you know this kind of news?"

Ruler did not completely believe the other party's words. After all, all the news came from the other party's mouth, and it was impossible to confirm whether it was true or false.

"【Answer】Because we have intercepted them."

"Varied......?!"
