Why fight the Holy Grail War? Let's play cards!

If it weren't for the need to train Miyu to the level of a first-class servant, Jiang You would have just gone up and taken the lead himself.

"Can I be a magical girl a second time?"

Moyi's complaining voice came from the side. She had never heard of a magical girl being able to return to work and be re-hired.

"Is that so? Leave it to me then."

Medusa agreed to Jiang You's request. She slowly took off her blindfold and looked at the two magical girls. Her square pupils slowly revealed murderous intent. "The next battle will be conducted as a real battle. Don't treat it as a joke. If you're not careful, you'll get hurt!"

"I, I will try my best..."

Moyi was about to respond when she felt her body begin to stiffen. It felt like it weighed a thousand pounds, making it incredibly difficult to move even slightly or utter a single word.

"Stupid Illya! This is the standard for actual combat, but would my opponent be so stupid as to sit there and finish talking before launching an attack?"

Ruby took the initiative to break away from Illya's palm and released a counter magic. Medusa's Mystic Eye is not very effective against things with anti-magic power. Ruby can draw similar skills from the parallel world, so Illya recovered quickly and avoided the embarrassment of being treated as a small fry and instantly left.

"Think about her name. She's Medusa! When dealing with Heroic Spirits, you need to refer to their legends to prepare for defense, or be prepared for countermeasures. For example, when dealing with Dimurdo, you need to use a wild boar to attack him!"

"That makes sense...it's a genius!"

Moyi couldn't imagine how to use this weakness to deal with the opponent. "If I really meet him, where can I get a wild boar?"

"Let me give you an analogy, understand? Believe in yourself, there will always be a way. Belief is your magic!"

Ruby said a rather dangerous line.

"Who would understand what you're talking about?"

Moyi shouted that he didn't understand!

Chapter 380: The novice protection period was eaten up.

Unlike Illya, Miyu left Medusa's sight from the start. After regaining some of her memories, she also learned a little about the ability to distinguish malicious intent. The moment Medusa took off her eyepatch, the battle had already begun.

"Sapphire, how do I attack?"

After the transformation, Miyu did feel that she had become much lighter, and could even cover a considerable distance with each step without much effort. However, this was her second transformation, and she had no time to adjust and learn.

"Mr. Jiang You is a little too impatient, but leave it to me! I will guide you!"

Sapphire is much more reliable and doesn't say too much irrelevant words during battle.

"Just feel the flow of magic power and send it out. I'll help you build the circuits. Don't overthink it!"

Miyu followed suit and, with the help of Sapphire, used her magic power to form a dense light bullet and shot it at Medusa, forcing Medusa to shift her sight. This was the reason why Moyi was able to escape quickly.

Faced with the dense barrage of comments, Medusa did not choose to escape. Instead, she bent down like a gymnast, showing the curves of her body to the fullest in an instant, and passed through the gaps in the barrage with an elegant and charming posture.

"Lucky, she chose this way to dodge. So, Miyu, are you ready?"

The gaps between the barrages were very tight, and Medusa now had no way to exert any force. It could be said that at this moment the barrage was imprisoning Medusa's body.

"Ready!"

Miyu has already injected a considerable amount of magic power into the wand.

"Then, go for it! Imagine your wand is a sword, and strike out!"

Sapphire diligently guided them. While Moyi was still bickering with Ruby, initial results were already showing.

The magic wand drew an arc in the air, and deep blue magic power appeared in the arc. A "sword energy" shot out and jumped in front of Medusa almost in an instant.

Miyu's magical aptitude was quite high, and her first release was equivalent to the release of a C-rank Noble Phantasm. Medusa's physique couldn't easily withstand such an attack. It could be said that if Miyu hit, she would win the battle.

While Medusa's record is rather disgraceful, with modern teachers single-handedly killing her, she's not without her share of impressive performances. At full power, she's even capable of engaging the infinitely powerful Black Saber, and even prevailing in a Noble Phantasm duel (albeit with support). So, after all, she's a Servant from the Age of Legends, so how could she be defeated so easily?

"Took it?"

Amid Ruby's surprised questions, Medusa pulled the chain sword at her waist and instantly moved sideways several meters, easily dodging the slash composed of a large amount of magic power released by Miyu.

Then, Medusa took advantage of her speed and quickly approached Miyu. At this time, it was impossible to force Medusa back with an attack. With the help of Sapphire, Miyu used her magic power to build a defensive barrier.

"Don't just look ahead when you're fighting!"

Medusa's warning and the whipping from behind arrived at the same time. The other end of Medusa's chain sword had already circled behind Miyu. Since it was not a real fight to the death, Medusa changed the stabbing into a whipping. She hit Miyu seriously, but she did not hold back much. If she hit, Miyu would definitely lose her fighting power instantly and would be in pain for several days.

But she was obviously overthinking it. Miyu built a barrier behind herself at the last moment and blocked the fatal blow.

Even so, Miyu's chances were almost over. The impact of the attack pushed her towards Medusa, and Miyu, having lost her balance, had no time to regain her defensive stance. Even though Medusa's melee ability was slightly weaker than most servants, it was not something a fragile servant like Miyu could defeat.

Medusa directly wrapped Miyu's neck with the chain sword. Then, as long as she exerted a little force, Miyu's fragile neck would lose the oxygen supply.

Seeing Miyu already panting, Medusa shook her head. "Although she's better than Illya, she's still too inexperienced. How can you go all out when you're still in the exploratory phase? It would be very dangerous if you were to be discovered. Furthermore, your magic control is too crude, wasting too much of it, which is quite disadvantageous in battle."

Jiang You thought that someone had underestimated the enemy during the probing phase and had his head twisted off. Speaking of which, Jiang You had never seen Soichiro Kuzuki in the Fifth War timeline, and he didn't know if he had been used as a soldier during the duel.

"You've already lost..."

Medusa was about to make a symbolic effort to "kill" Miyu when she saw two pink magic bullets strike her hands, one on the left and one on the right. The angles were quite tricky, forcing her to let go. This time, the magic bullets were very concentrated, unlike Miyu's previous tentative scattering. If they hit Medusa's hands, they would probably be disabled.

Medusa chuckled and released her chain sword. She had a rough idea of ​​the magical girl's true strength. In their current state, their actual combat power was on par with hers, ranking them in the upper middle tier of second-rate Heroic Spirits. However, their combat experience was too limited to fully realize their strength. Jiang You's decision was correct; the two of them truly needed to experience actual combat to digest their combat power.

"The battle isn't over yet, it's too early to draw conclusions. It's our turn to perform, Illya!"

Ruby also came to support with Moyi at this time, "Sapphire, let's go together as sisters!"

"Sister, given the current situation, there is no chance that we can win this battle."

Sapphire could see that Medusa didn't use much strength at all, and compared to those servants who only relied on instinct to fight, the complete Medusa's combat power was several levels higher. There was no reason why she could win this battle using the basic form.

"So, it's time to use Dream Summoning. It's time to let them get used to the power of the Heroic Spirit."

"Using a big move right at the start? Isn't that a bit too early?"

Ruby looked very hesitant.

"Not so good……"

"..."

Moyi swallowed her saliva. She had seen this setting before. Great power often comes with great risks.

Ruby hadn't expected to switch forms in the first battle. "Shouldn't there be a novice protection period? To show off the strength of our (magic outfit), we should definitely win the first battle."

"This isn't some special effects film!"

Moyi didn't expect that this was what Ruby cared about.

Chapter 381: What Dream Summoning Are You Using?!

"Should magical girls also be considered a type of tokusatsu?"

Ruby actually gave this question some serious thought. And could Kamen Rider also be considered a male version of Magical Girl? Many elements are very similar. For example, transformations, forming teams, acquiring new forms and combos, and the classic villain Knight (Dark Magical Girl) being converted, or the appearance of a traitor Knight (Evil? Fallen Magical Girl).

“Is this the time to discuss this?”

Moyi rolled her eyes. Even if it was just combat training, it was quite dangerous. She almost turned into stone just now.

Even so, deep down, Moyi was still somewhat happy. She had never imagined she'd have the chance to meet legendary creatures again. Thinking of what she would experience in the future was like a huge door suddenly opening before her eyes, revealing a vibrant and colorful world. Legendary stories and characters slowly approached. She had never felt so happy to be a magical girl. It would have been even better if it didn't involve fighting.

"What is Dream Summoning?"

Miyu directly pointed out the crux of the matter. She usually ignored topics that were not related to it.

"Simply put, Dream Summoning is a way to connect to the Throne of Heroes and use the power of Heroic Spirits to cover yourself in battle."

Sapphire, who doesn't let her thoughts wander like Ruby does, immediately offers an explanation for Miyu.

"However, this ability requires the use of a Job Card as a supplement. It can only be activated with the corresponding Job Card. Do you remember? Jiang You gave you a card, which is what we call a Job Card. Now, it's time to use it!"

Miyu took out the card given to her by Jiang You. There was the image of Shirou Emiya printed on it. Among the cards given by Jiang You, this card was the most precious to her. She always kept it close to her. When Sapphire mentioned the card, she thought of this card first.

"That's right... No, that's not right!"

Sapphire did see the magic on this card, connecting countless time and space, but this thing has nothing to do with the job card.

"What the hell is this!"

"The card Mr. Jiang You gave me..."

Miyu explained that after everyone obtains their own deck, it is like having their own royal treasury, and they can take out the deck from anywhere at will, making it possible to draw cards from the floor. This ability is only effective for the deck, and it also eliminates the possibility of cards being physically snatched.

"There are many more, but this one is the most important."

Sapphire had never witnessed Jiang You's dueling ability (it wasn't there during the duel with Minamoto no Raikou), so it had no idea what it was. But it felt like it was far superior to a job card, somewhere between Jiang You's ability to freely travel between parallel worlds and something even simpler than the Jeweled Man. It suspected it might be some kind of secondary technique. "Looks like you've met a truly remarkable person, Miyu... Perhaps you could give it a try?"

They're all cards, all powerful magic props. In short, they're probably about the same. Sapphire was a bit confused, having forgotten to ask Miyu to pull out her real job card. Originally, it only needed to prompt Jiangyou to use the card he brought yesterday.

"Honestly, you guys are taking too long to explain. The enemy won't wait for you to finish!"

Seeing her opponent chatting in front of her, Medusa launched an immediate attack. While she didn't understand what Dream Summoning was, interrupting her opponent's actions was the wisest option. The two ends of her chain sword locked onto Moyi and Miyu, striking them like two silver snakes.

"Now that we've prepared our trump card, it's time to increase the intensity of the battle!"

The two men pushed each other to avoid the attack. Medusa also rushed over at this time, holding the chain sword and spinning the chain like a ribbon around her side at high speed like performing artistic gymnastics. However, the rotation of this "ribbon" was accompanied by a whooshing sound. If it touched, at least the bones would be broken.

"Isn't this time pressing?"

Ruby immediately pulled Moyi aside, and Sapphire did the same. The two of them tacitly distanced themselves. Medusa was alone, with a limited range, and could only deal with one person at a time. If the two of them ran at full speed, Medusa might not be able to catch them immediately. As long as one of them was free, the Dream Summoning could be completed.

"Besides, if we only have to explain it once, we won't need it next time. Speaking of which, in this situation, it's a good thing to say it in advance."

Looking at the two people running in two directions, Medusa chose the direction of Moyi without any hesitation.

"Why are you chasing me? Miyu's condition is obviously worse!"

Seeing Medusa running towards him, Moyi had to speed up his pace.

"Maybe it's because of Jiang You?"

Ruby had no idea what Medusa was thinking, or maybe she just picked one at random.

"Maybe she and Illya have some conflict?"

"That shouldn't be me!"

Moyi cried out in injustice, what did this have to do with her?

"Honestly, almost no one can tell the difference between you two."

Ruby felt that if these two people stayed together, some misunderstanding would happen sooner or later, but it thought it was quite interesting, so it decided not to remind them.

"Magical girls always have to pay a price. Try your best to escape, Illya."

On the other side, Sapphire was also ready to perform dream summoning.

"Honestly, I'm not sure this thing will work."

Sapphire looked at the [Emiya Giant Warrior] in Miyu's hand and seemed a little conflicted.

"But Illya is still covering for us, so we have plenty of time to try."

"I'm ready, let's get started."

Miyu nodded. She was extremely looking forward to being able to be one with her brother. She placed her hand on the card.

"Dream summons!"

Sapphire activated a dream summon, fusing Miyu with Emiya Giant Warrior. A dazzling light erupted, practically lighting up the night sky.

Jiang You, who was watching the entire process from above, only then noticed that Miyu was using the Yu-Gi-Oh version of the Servant Card. This made him almost spit out his drink, "No way, what's going on... But before that, Baimao, go to the church and tell them to prepare to clean up the mess."

"Yes, Master, but what's a better excuse?"

Baimao slowly emerged from behind Jiang You. Jiang You would basically pull out a few Baimao in every world, if for no other reason than that Baimao's ability to do odd jobs was top-notch.

"Of course it was a natural gas explosion."

This excuse is a recurring one, and it really fits the lighting. After all, a natural gas explosion would really look like a Hammer of Dawn attack.

Chapter 382: Now there are a whole dozen transformation cards.

"You seem a little unhappy?"

Jiang You, who was sitting in the "audience seats", looked at Illya beside him. At first, she was very excited to see the magical girl and the servant fighting, but soon she became quiet and her expression became a little depressed.
