Rin Tohsaka was not concerned about Medea's threat. She believed that Saber could resist the Command Seals' influence for a while longer, and she just needed to eliminate the enemy as quickly as possible during this time.

The magicians at the Clock Tower stared in disbelief at Rin Tohsaka in the image.

A modern magician challenges a Heroic Spirit, specifically Medea, the renowned magician of the Age of Gods?

This behavior is tantamount to suicide in the eyes of all modern magicians.

Even the headmaster of the Clock Tower would have to kowtow to Medea several times, begging her to take him as a disciple and teach him the mysteries of the Age of Gods magic.

Brilliant rubies rushed toward Medea from all directions, each gem containing powerful magic. These fire-attribute gems could transform into incredibly powerful magical bombs or into scorching flames that could burn away enemies.

These gems, which were flying in mid-air, were easily destroyed by Medea with a weakened version of her magic ray.

A bright blue gem appeared about five meters in front of Medea, piercing through the firelight and smoke.

Medea frowned, not sensing any threat from the gem, and decided it was unnecessary to pay attention. What use was the faint magical power within the sapphire if it couldn't even break through her own protective barrier?

With a loud bang, an incredibly bright white light illuminated the dimly lit church. The light was brighter than a flashbang explosion, dazzling and blinding.

The dazzling spell unfolded at the speed of light, leaving the enemy no time to react. Medea placed her hands in front of her to defend against what was not an attack magic, and instantly lost sight of Rin Tohsaka.

Immediately afterwards, crimson earth magic bullets were fired in succession, forming a barrage.

Medea wanted to use this move to force Medea down from the air. Once Medea landed on the ground, Medea could unleash one of her "true abilities".

42. The Traitor Archer

At the same time, Kuzuki Souichirou swiftly broke through the dust and charged towards Tohsaka Rin.

If he can get close to Rin Tohsaka, his enhanced fist can knock her out of her fighting ability with a single blow.

"Archer!" Rin Tohsaka called out to Archer for backup as she retreated at top speed.

With a whoosh, Archer's red coat fluttered as he appeared between Rin Tohsaka and Souichirou Kuzuki. Rin Tohsaka breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing this; Archer's support was spot-on. However, she was somewhat puzzled as to why Archer hadn't drawn his bow and arrows to shoot them down.

Souichirou Kuzuki charged toward Archer without fear, confident in Medea's protection and in his own strength.

There was a bang.

The astonishing scene left Shirou Emiya, who was hiding on the second floor, dumbfounded.

Archer swung his left arm forcefully, striking Rin Tohsaka's tablet computer and sending her slender body flying.

Rin Tohsaka plummeted backward through the air, her body empowered by magic, and she smashed through the long table behind her. She felt a sharp pain all over her body, as if her bones were about to shatter.

The.

The pain from the heavy fall to the ground made Rin Tohsaka close her left eye tightly, staring at Archer in confusion. "Hey! Archer!?!?!?"

What...what happened? What happened?

Was it to save me, or was it a trap?

Medea paused in her gesture of unleashing a powerful magic spell, utterly bewildered by the enemy's tactic of striking their own allies. But she didn't lower her guard; what was this man planning?

Rin Tohsaka didn't dwell on it, assuming that Archer had discovered something. She raised her hand again, aimed at Souichirou Kuzuki, and fired a magic bullet. The magic bullet flew forward rapidly.

Facing the high-speed incoming magic bullet, Kuzuki Souichirou neither dodged nor evaded. Medea had already told him that his current defensive magic was sufficient to withstand this kind of childish magic. But Archer acted directly, wielding his sword Kanshou to shatter the magic bullet and standing between Kuzuki Souichirou and Tohsaka Rin.

Kuzuki Souichirou frowned, looking at the back of the red-clad man who was completely unguarded against him with suspicion. He didn't take the opportunity to attack Archer's back, but just watched the man's strange and unusual actions.

Archer tells Rin Tohsaka that there is absolutely no chance of winning against Caster now.

He calmly walked towards Saber, while Rin Tohsaka, her expression wary, stared in disbelief at Archer's retreating figure. She had no idea what Shirou Emiya was planning.

Hiding on the second floor, Shirou Emiya whispered, "No, don't do this. If you do this, Tohsaka will be in a lot of pain."

Archer, walking towards Caster, turned to look at Shirou Emiya's location, a cool, cold smile on his face. He seemed to have already spotted Shirou. That smile seemed to be saying to Shirou—don't hate me, kid. Now, is there any other path to choose?

"Alright, Caster. I only have one question. Do you have any space left?"

“Archer, you…!” These words made Rin Tohsaka instantly understand what Archer wanted to do.

She couldn't believe it, couldn't comprehend that such a gentle red knight would do such a thing. Why, why, why? With her current level of intelligence, she simply couldn't fathom Archer's thoughts.

"Hoo—" Medea exhaled a breath of stale air, laughing with immense pleasure. The poor little girl had been betrayed by her own servant. "Hehehehe... Ahahahahaha... Hehehehehe!"

She burst into laughter; the man before her had truly brought her all sorts of surprises. Didn't this directly prove who the real winner was?

Rin Tohsaka gritted her teeth, her shoulders trembling, and clenched her fists tightly as she slowly backed away towards the door behind her.

“Eh? Of course! Not to mention you alone, even if I had to control all the Servants, I have more than enough magical power. You know where I get my magical power, right?” Medea replied with a light laugh.

This is the difference between her and Rin Tohsaka, enough to provide Medusa with the magical power to ride Pegasus around the world dozens of times.

“That makes things easier. I accept your previous proposal, Caster.” Archer smiled at Caster and extended his right hand.

"You really are fickle, changing your tune so quickly after rejecting me back then." Medea turned to the side, looking coldly at Archer, without taking out her Noble Phantasm.

“Because the situation has changed. Now that Saber is in your hands, among all the Masters, you have the greatest chance of winning. It would be only natural for me to side with the victor,” Archer replied with a light laugh.

"Come on, break the contract on me quickly. Rin still has Command Seals left. If you don't act soon, she might use them to attack you."

He's very close to Medea now. With his skills, he could probably slice her to pieces in an instant. But that's pointless; Medea can instantly use spatial displacement to leave behind her afterimage.

He was certain that Rin Tohsaka would not use Command Seals to order him to defeat Medea and Souichirou Kuzuki.

Medea conjured a twisted purple dagger in her hand—a magic sword capable of breaking all magic—but she still did not stab Archer in the chest.

She had reservations, looking warily at Archer standing before her. He could betray the little girl, but he could also betray himself, which would threaten Lord Soichiro.

However, she still liked this man quite a bit. After all, in their previous conversation, he hadn't shown any disgust towards her actions, unlike that clueless brat.

"What's wrong? You can gain loyal and powerful subordinates without any effort." Archer crossed his arms and looked at the hesitant Medea, saying calmly, "Is there any need to hesitate?"

"How should I put it? I don't trust traitors. If what you're saying is true, then having Saber as a pawn is enough for me, isn't it?"

"You don't trust traitors, do you? Indeed, perhaps I might betray you. After all, I joined you for my own sake. I didn't acknowledge you as my master, but—"

"Command Seals are used to punish traitors, right?" Yes, I have Command Seals that can forcibly command Archer not to betray me. Medea raised her Noble Phantasm and thrust it towards Archer's chest, confidently declaring:

"If I can't even control you, then you can imagine how petty I am. Anyway, I was only somewhat interested in your [Noble Phantasm] in the first place."

Let's evaluate it later.

Rin Tohsaka cried out in pain as Medea took away her Command Seals, and she was no longer Archer's master.

Rin Tohsaka stared intently at the enemy before her with a grave expression, a sense of sadness welling up inside her. Yes, it was all because she was too weak... She retreated towards the gate, now ten meters away.

She remained calm, knowing that she was no match for Caster, Archer, Souichirou Kuzuki, and Saber in her current state.

The first thing to do now is to survive.

Only by staying alive can one have a chance to turn things around.

Cyberpunk 2077 world.

"Impossible!? Would a comrade of justice say something like that?" Rebecca stared wide-eyed at Archer reaching out to Medea, then pulled out her pistol and fired wildly at the ceiling.

"Hey!! Are you the kind of person who needs to resort to this kind of stunt to win?"

Rebecca, enraged, brandished her dual pistols and fired repeatedly at Archer's phantom. She hated traitors more than anything!

“This is a logical choice. This world is very realistic. Archer isn’t like Shirou Emiya or Rin Tohsaka, those two naive rich kids. Saber’s master is Medea, who has collected so much magical power. Saber can now unleash power comparable to Mordred or Nezha in the Qin Lostbelt, right?” Mann said.

He envied the bodies of Heroic Spirits, especially Spartacus, who was truly his idol. Rebellion, rebellion against oppressors, rebellion against those high-and-mighty families and monopolistic corporations!

Rebel against the bastards in the city that never sleeps!

That body that can defy Earth's gravity, that strong body capable of supporting repeated heavy artillery fire. And it's unaffected by cyberbullying... and it doesn't need daily suppressant injections...

To be honest, although he now lives in a technologically advanced world.

But he would rather live in the era of Shirou Emiya, or in the technological era of Riku.

The more advanced the technology, the more suffering people will experience. Advanced technology may be helpful to humanity, but the vast majority of people cannot afford it... cannot afford it.

“But it’s unbelievable that rich young masters and ladies would fight for us poor folks,” Dorio said.

"Hahahaha... An era without the need for physical modification has become even more dangerous than the City That Never Sleeps. Once Medea succeeds, the people of this city and this country will be doomed!" Pila made a funny gesture as she looked at Archer, who had betrayed Rin Tohsaka.

They weren't really bothered by Archer's betrayal. Such things happened far too often in the City That Never Sleeps; it was commonplace.

The price of a human life is less than the value of a bottle of organic juice.

Lucy's house.

The huge floor-to-ceiling windows let the bright moonlight spill into the dimly lit room.

Lucy and David sat side by side, watching what was happening on the screen.

“I don’t believe Shirou Emiya would betray Rin Tohsaka. Someone like him wouldn’t do such a thing.” David looked at Archer’s back with suspicion.

"This guy is the kind of person who says one thing but means another. And, like David, he's a fool who'd sacrifice himself to help others. Whatever he wants to do, his intentions are good. Although the process might be incomprehensible to others, and might cause them pain," Lucy smiled.

A mischievous look appeared on her face; she really wanted to see how ashamed and pained Archer from other worlds would look if he saw himself in the picture.

You have seen through what kind of person you are. Countless people around the world have already seen through you.

Deep Sea Cyber ​​Paradise, Second Playthrough Timeline.

"...Pfft...Pfft...Originally, Shirou Emiya wanted to defeat Medea directly, making Saber Rin Tohsaka's Servant, or just make Saber disappear. But that idiot Rin Tohsaka had to say that line before the battle even started. Honestly, she's such an idiot." BB couldn't help but laugh, amused by Rin Tohsaka's bizarre actions.

"Puhahaha... No wonder she herself admitted that she often messes up. Didn't you want Shirou Emiya to just leave the Holy Grail War and stay away from the conflict? As long as you win the Holy Grail War, you'll have plenty of time to correct Shirou Emiya's twisted personality."

"Honestly, her strategic thinking in crucial moments is still too weak. But her girlfriend skills are pretty good."

Ishtar lay on the Sky Boat Maana, covering her cheek with her right hand, unable to bear looking at the embarrassing and distressed Rin Tohsaka on the screen.

Rin Tohsaka certainly never expected this to happen.

Because she already knew Archer's true identity, she found it even harder to accept that this had happened. But she didn't know why Archer had attacked Shirou Emiya in the first place, or what his reasons were for doing so.

Rin Tohsaka is so stupid for not understanding this point.

Black Emiya Shirou leaned against the wall with his arms crossed. "This is the obvious choice. Rin Tohsaka is completely unqualified as a Master. In this state, the best plan is to hide and wait for Medea to deal with Berserker and fight the mastermind before coming out to clean up the mess."

With his own strength and cunning old fox

By now, he must have already figured out how to end this farcical magic ritual.

If given a choice, he wouldn't directly cooperate with Medea; instead, he would act alone, completely ignoring Rin Tohsaka's instructions.

The idea that Saber can withstand Command Spells for a few minutes is utterly foolish. It's assuming the battle won't go astray and having no alternative plan for the worst-case scenario. Isn't that just sending someone to their death?

Did Rin Tohsaka really prepare for the Holy Grail War for ten years, or did she only learn magic during those ten years and not acquire any knowledge in other areas?

Grand Carnival World.

Upon seeing this, Emiya's mother, who was in the kitchen, blushed and immediately deployed her Reality Barrier to hide inside.

From his own perspective, his every move exuded a very immature and childish aura.

Although it might seem like a cool move to others.

However, Emiya's mother couldn't get past her own conscience, and he always acted expressionlessly, whether he was doing missions or collecting materials!

Fate/stay night, UBW timeline.

"Hmph, even if he wanted to betray me, wouldn't I be on guard? How could I possibly give my subordinates the chance to betray me? Becoming my follower is the same as becoming my slave. Want to rebel? Want to betray me? How laughable!"

Medea simply didn't believe she would fail; Archer's plan was utterly foolish.

No matter how many battles he had fought or how much experience he had accumulated, this move was utterly foolish in her eyes. Did he really think he would show mercy?

After defeating Gilgamesh and the berserk Heracles, she will directly cause Archer to die and be transformed into magical power.

She placed traps inside Sasaki Kojiro's body before summoning him, as a follow-up move.

How could she not be wary of Emiya Shirou?

....................

....................

Shirou Emiya, standing on the second floor, saw that Souichirou Kuzuki had vanished from his spot in an instant and appeared behind Rin Tohsaka, throwing a punch that Rin couldn't defend against.

Without hesitation, he jumped down.

I will die, I will die. The present me will die in the past.

With a loud bang, the reinforced wooden sword shattered.

His hands were now unarmed.
