Comics: Starting from Killer Queen

But the feeling of the wound that touched the inner flesh under the golden armor still remains in Archer's heart.

Feeling this fact, Archer couldn't help but be shocked. Even Saber couldn't break the armor given by the sun god Surya, but it didn't work just now?

No... the function of the golden armor is still working well. The attack just now was indeed weakened to only a few percent, but it still broke through the remaining defenses and left injuries on his body. This is even more unbelievable than if the effect was ignored.

"call……"

Archer's mouth stretched into a grin, and he let out a hot breath.

As the figure approached, his heart began to beat violently. It was a symbol of cheering and joy. He was so lucky to be able to participate in this Holy Grail War.

He looked at the purple figure holding a magic spear, walking straight towards another fallen magic spear, picking it up casually and holding it in his hand. His brows were filled with fighting spirit.

"Queen of the Shadow Kingdom, noble Godslayer, I am so lucky to meet you in this situation. I am grateful for this good fortune from the bottom of my heart."

"No need to be so modest, son of the sun god. Your nature is infinitely close to that of a true god, but a god can never possess your noble character. I am grateful for being able to fight with a great hero like you, no matter what the circumstances, even if you are a servant of the goddess of beasts."

Scathach looked back at Karna, and there was a bit of admiration in her proud expression, but more than admiration, what rose up in her was the bloody murderous intent that completely washed away her awe-inspiring aura.

As long as you are a warrior, it is impossible to resist the temptation to fight with the great hero who gives you charity, especially for Scathach who is looking forward to being a hero.

But Karna seemed unaware of Scathach's emotions and shook his head gently.

"She's not yet."

"You and I both know that it all depends on whether she wants to or not. As long as she wants, she can easily do it. But even so, you will not give up your loyalty to her."

"I believe in the Master."

"Heh." Seeing Karna's impeccable saintly appearance, Scathach's momentum was restrained a little, but the severity in her words did not fade. "When you meet the other beast goddess born because of her, I'm afraid you won't be able to say such words."

"But what's the matter?" She clenched the two blood-red magic spears in her hands with fighting spirit, "Compared to words, I believe that fighting is a more convincing means."

"Archer is Karna...Lancer, is that Scathach?"

Looking at the tall and charming female warrior, Saber's eyes became sharp.

Although she was still a little confused about the content of their conversation, it was an indisputable fact that Scathach suddenly interrupted the duel and launched a sneak attack on Archer. Although she didn't know why Archer and Lancer both showed an indifferent attitude towards this matter, she still couldn't suppress the resentment in her heart.

"Before that, you have to ask my sword first, lancer."

Saber showed a solemn expression, "You sneak attacked Archer, broke the fairness of that battle and took away his victory. Although I am the loser, I have no right to blame you because of your intervention, but

——You are really despicable now!"

Perhaps it was the first time that she was evaluated like this, Scathach also showed a somewhat surprised expression, looking at Saber's clear pupils, she smiled with interest.

"Is it despicable? I don't care. After all, as a warrior, as long as I can carry out my will, prove my bravery, and win the battle, that's enough."

"If you don't completely integrate this belief into yourself, or completely abandon it, then you will definitely pay the price for it in the future, Knight King."

Scathach's overly frank attitude made Saber uncomfortable. She was mentally prepared to be ridiculed for her naivety just like at the Meeting of the Three Kings, but she did not expect Scathach to agree directly.

This attitude was so pure and free that it even created a glimmer of longing in Saber's heart.

But even so, Saber still raised the sword in her hand.

"That may be true... But if you insist on joining this battlefield, I will defeat you first."

"I see. Being able to face your own weaknesses is also a rare kind of courage." Looking at Saber's appearance, Scathach's mouth curled up into the same arc as Karna's. It was a smile of joy at seeing prey, a joy that only a warrior could understand.

"Come on, Saber, don't mind it. I didn't attack you with any intention of rescuing you. I just wanted to kill Archer. In fact, if you hadn't dodged, my magic spear would have pierced through you. As long as you participate in this Holy Grail War, whether you are a Heroic Spirit or a Master, you are my enemy."

"Lancer's words are correct. Since Saber also agrees, that's great. You will all become threats that cannot be ignored in this war. If you are eliminated here, it means that the Master will at least hold half of the victory."

Suddenly, Karna also spoke.

He always has a calm and composed attitude, but the expectation in his heart can be seen from the divine bow wrapped in his hand, which responds to his high fighting spirit and murderous intent, and is as red as the scorching sun, as if the flames will jump out of the bowstring at any moment.

The woman named Scathach is a warrior who slaughtered many gods in the Age of Gods. Even though this feat has never been praised in the world, it is still engraved in her body as a symbol of her way of survival, turning into a trait that cannot be ignored.

The golden armor that had been broken before was the best proof. Even after being severely weakened, the remaining power could still leave scars in his body after being replenished. If he was not careful, he might really experience the taste of death in that magic spear.

Although he possesses a nearly invincible treasure, Karna will never be careless due to arrogance when facing unknown enemies.

In addition, the Knight King was not an easy opponent to deal with. For Karna, there was no battle more worthy of joy than this.

Seeing that Archer also agreed, Saber had no choice but to accept the current situation. Her previous injuries had been mostly healed by Avalon, and her real name could be released at any time. Next, she had to be more cautious.

She raised the holy sword in her hand, but did not change her target, and pointed it at Scathach again.

Compared to Karna, who had explosive firepower and amazing defense, this unknown godslayer was a more threatening target for her right now. Even though he had only thrown a magic spear from beginning to end, Saber knew it from Scathach's perfect body and flawless posture.

This woman is quite capable.

"It's really exciting to see such a chaotic scene in the first battle. Then, show me Scathach your strength!"

There was a terrifying flame burning in her eyes, and she stared at Saber and said with some regret.

"It's a pity, Saber, even though you have talents that are not inferior to Archer, your current state is too half-baked. You are neither a pure knight nor an ultimate king. You have wasted your precious talents. Your teacher is really unreliable. Did he really teach you?"

Scathach danced the magic spear in her hand to create gorgeous gun flowers and chuckled.

"To add a little fun, I'll tell you a piece of good news. On the way here, your Master has been spotted by my Master. I guess they have already started fighting. Although it was just a glimpse, I can be sure that she will definitely be defeated by my Master."

"If you can't end this battle quickly, I'm afraid you will only be able to collect the body of your Master."

Even though she was concentrating, Saber's thoughts were still overwhelmed by the shock brought about by this hasty news. She subconsciously looked for a place to escape from the battlefield, but found that those possible locations were already tightly covered by Archer and Lancer's attack range.

"--cold!"

She cried out in surprise, but did not sense the presence of any familiar or signs of response.

Although Lin was usually a little off-line, he was definitely not the type to back down at a moment like this, and since there was no response, it was self-evident what this meant.

"Then it's as you wish, Lancer!"

Saber's voice was filled with unprecedented determination. Regardless of whether she could win or not, she was betting her own kingly way and beliefs on the matter. She would at least protect the Master who trusted her.

"Very good, this is how you act like a warrior."

Seeing Saber's fighting spirit, Scathach smiled slightly. She was a person who longed for fighting. The stronger the enemy was, the more she would feel close to death. Such a situation would undoubtedly only make her more excited.

Just when the battle was about to break out, another unfamiliar voice suddenly rang out.

"That's true, but it's not fair for Saber to be the only one going all out, so, Lancer, let me give you equal conditions."

On top!

With a reaction as fast as lightning, the warriors, all of whom were first-rate servants, raised their heads at the same time and looked at the figure descending from the misty night sky and the materialized darkness.

"I am the winner of the last Holy Grail War and the master of this Holy Grail War's caster, Roland. Let's end it here tonight."

The young man with scarlet pupils that seemed to be able to illuminate the soul and a warm smile on his face declared this to the rare heroes.

"——Otherwise, you will all die here."

Chapter 252: Brahma, Curse My Body

Roland was not wearing any combat-related attire and looked like just a passer-by in the city, but none of the servants present doubted his strength.

Because they all felt the magical aura that should have disappeared.

As heroes before the Age of Gods, they were all well-informed, but such a rich True Aether was still beyond their imagination. Even the gods could not compare to it.

It was as if he himself was the continuation of that era and the symbol of the future.

In front of this figure, even Scathach put away her arrogance and looked at the other party solemnly.

She possesses the wisdom of the demonic world that she gained by surpassing humans, slaughtering gods, and placing herself on the outside of the world, so she can see more clearly.

This heavy true ether was like the blood vessels of the planet connected to his body. That heavy mystery had unconsciously attracted everything around him to begin to lean towards him in the sense of fate.

Scathach even vaguely felt that she might have touched upon the truth beyond the world.

"You said you would give Saber and I equal conditions. That means both of our Masters have failed."

"After all, they met me and I captured them." Roland spread his hands and said lightly.

This attitude made Scathach's eyes more murderous, but she did not act rashly. During the training in the past few days, she was very clear about Bazett's will and combat power. Even if her useless disciple really came as a servant, he might die together with Bazett.

But now his contract still existed, and Bazette was nowhere to be found, which meant that it was a complete victory.

Upon hearing this news, Karna raised his eyebrows, and as if he had received some order, the divine bow in his hand dropped quietly.

But Saber obviously didn't care so much. She raised the holy sword in her hand again, letting the fierce fighting spirit burst out.

"Master of Caster! Hand over Rin!"

Looking at Saber, who hadn't figured out the situation yet and was full of hostility, Roland shrugged.

"Okay."

Saber choked at the overly straightforward answer. She obviously didn't expect the other party to be so easy to talk to. However, the annoyance in her eyes had not yet subsided before it was replaced by panic.

"what!!!"

The pitch-black night twisted into a spiral vortex gate, and the girl with twin ponytails fell straight to the ground. Saber took a sudden step forward. With no one blocking her, short-distance flight was something she could do easily.

But just as she was about to touch Toosaka Rin's falling body, the girl was instantly swallowed by the dark vortex.

Then it returned to its original position once again, as if in an endless cycle, with the occasional figure of a red-haired magician appearing in the mix.

Even though Saber could harness the magical power of wind, she could never be faster than a shadow in the darkness of night.

"Why are you looking at me like that? I've given you a chance. There are no extra restrictions. As long as you can move in and out of the shadows like my soldiers, you can take them away from me."

"What on earth do you want to do?!"

After the second rescue attempt also failed, Saber stopped this useless effort and looked at Roland with anger.

"I have already said this from the beginning. I want to create more equal conditions for you. If this melee continues, it will be too noisy and the meaning of the trial will be lost. If I do it myself, I will accidentally kill you all and that will be troublesome."

"So, it is more convenient to use the hostage tactic to create a common enemy. After all, for a stubborn Servant, the simple method is the most effective."

Roland spread his hands, looking innocent.

This matter-of-fact look, hiding the mocking attitude under a harmless appearance, made two figures suddenly flash through Saber's mind.

They all have an inexplicable connection with the goblin, and have played important roles in her life.

She had never expected that in the modern times when both her country and the Age of Gods had become a thing of the past, she would still see such an existence. It was as if fate was deliberately targeting her.

But under the severe situation, Saber could only calm down her anger temporarily and prepare to try to negotiate with Roland.

"Tell me your terms..."

"There's no need for that. If you want these two to fight with all their might, isn't there a simpler way?"

The burning murderous intent interrupted Saber's words. Although what came out of her mouth were questions, Archer acted without hesitation.

The speed at which his magic power expanded was as sudden and violent as an explosion.

Saber looked up in astonishment, and once again experienced the suffocating feeling she had felt when facing Karna at close range before, but the atmosphere was not dyed red as she expected.

If Archer wasn't planning to unleash his magic power and resurrect that tsunami-like torrent of fire that would engulf everything, then this could only be a precursor to releasing his Noble Phantasm.

But what Saber couldn't understand was that there was no flame on Archer's bow, and even his movements were a bit conservative, with no sign of fighting at all.

But before she could figure it out, Karna suddenly raised his head and looked at Toosaka Rin, who was still acting as human background music in the sky. In his eyes, a wave of flames that was so thick that it seemed to be condensed into substance turned into red beams of light and burst out like a mountain torrent bursting its dam!

"cold!"

Saber screamed at the top of her lungs, but even if her speed was so fast that Archer's clairvoyance could not observe the entire trajectory, she could not be faster than the beam that pierced the atmosphere.

This incident happened too suddenly. The noble and pure Karna actually launched a sneak attack, and he did not target the culprit who stopped the war, but the master who had no power to resist. This was completely different from his legend.

Compared to Saber who was at her wit's end, Scathach had already made a throwing gesture, but the magic spear that could penetrate space was not thrown out.

Because Roland has raised his head.

He did not put Toosaka Rin and the others into the shadows as he had done before, because there was no need.

Seeing is the oldest and fastest magic, so it is difficult to guard against. However, the same method can be used. Archer, a true hero, kills people with his eyes, so it is not an unsolvable method.

The stream of flames that materialized from Archer's eyes was indeed directed at the screaming Toosaka Rin in the air, but that was all. The girl with twin ponytails was still struggling vigorously in the air. Her body was not pierced through, nor did it turn into ashes.

Below her, another golden beam abruptly cut off Archer's thermal vision.

"The electric eyes are so exciting!"

The dazzling electric light bursting out from Roland's eyes moved little by little, like an eraser, erasing the beam track left by Archer's sight in the air little by little.

No matter how Archer increased his magic output and continued to focus the light beam on one point, he could not stop the movement of the lightning. In the end, in order to avoid being affected by the lightning that had already spread in front of him, Karna had to take the initiative to remove the treasure and interrupt this battle of vision.

But the interruption of the flames would not eliminate the impact of Archer's sudden attack. Saber and Scathach both saw clearly that Roland, who looked like a god with the dim light in his eyes, had a sarcastic smile on his face.
