In the Rider group's stronghold, Weber noticed an abnormal magic reaction through his familiar, and his eyes widened instantly.
"With that appearance, could it be Saber? She launched an attack on the Matou family's stronghold."
"What's wrong, boy, did something happen?"
Hearing Weber's reaction, Alexander turned over and glanced at Weber.
"The servant battle happened. It happened at the Matou family's position. Let me take a look."
"Although the Matou family's position was attacked, it didn't seem to have suffered too much damage. The magician who set up that position seemed to be of a very high level. Was it the Matou family's own magician who set it up?
Did you say that the Matou family summoned Caster?"
Weber frowned and thought.
The magic level of the servants who attacked the Matou family's stronghold was quite strong, but even so, the Matou family's stronghold was still intact. It must be said that the magician who set up that position seemed to be quite skilled, but the problem was that it was a bit confusing.
Strong.
It is absolutely forbidden to jump to conclusions. After all, the evaluation of the magician named Matou Kariya is not weak at all. That magic position may have been arranged by Matou Kariya.
"Which servant was it that launched the attack? From your description, it sounds like it was Saber? What kind of person is he?"
Alexander sat up and asked with interest.
"The opponent just made a round of attacks and then decisively retreated, so I can only get a rough idea. After all, I wasn't there to observe on the spot."
Weber was still hesitantly thinking about it when Alexander slapped him on the back.
"So what kind of person is he?"
"Ouch!"
Weber was photographed and fell down on the bed. After getting up, he yelled in anger.
"It hurts, you guy! The guy who attacked the Matou family seems to have abilities or treasures that can hide his body, and his appearance is not visible at all! All I know is that there seems to be a katana, and
The form of the attack seems to be to chop down thunder, but that’s all I know now!”
"Oh! Katana?"
There does seem to be a little bit of information.
"Well, his behavior was also a bit strange. He released a Noble Phantasm at the Matou family's position. It was probably a Noble Phantasm, and then quickly retreated. This was not an attack at all, but more like an attack.
A provocation before an attack or something like that?”
Thinking, Weber scratched his face.
"Confusing the public and arousing uneasy emotions, making it easy to fish in troubled waters, huh, it's a common trick, but -"
As if he thought of something, Rider Alexander Iskandar raised the corners of his mouth.
"Hey! Boy! It's time for us to take action!"
Snapped!
He patted Weber again.
"Ah! I told you not to use so much force! Also, what action should I take?"
Weber got up from the bed again and looked at his servant in confusion.
"Are you sure the opponent has retreated, Caster?"
Originally, Matou Kariya would call Manlio "Mr. Manrio" when he was at home, but since he moved to this base, he has called Manrio "Caster".
".The opponent's magic response has not been detected in the surrounding area, so he should have retreated."
There was a clearly visible drop of cold sweat on Manlio's forehead.
This was undoubtedly an unexpected attack.
Relying on his ability as a servant to control the space of the position to a certain extent, and Matou Kariya's advance arrangements, they were able to defend this attack and the stronghold did not suffer major losses.
But even if their defense was successful, they didn't know who the attacker was, and they didn't even see what the attacker looked like. They could only learn through the familiar that the attacker should be a Japanese servant, wielding a sword to kill.
Thunder fell from the sky.
"The Japanese Servant who killed Thunder. Are there any Servants with such deeds?"
While heaving a sigh of relief, Matou Kariya thought about the only information he had received.
All in all, let’s go ask my brothers and father at home first.
"——Master!"
While Matou Kariya was thinking, Manlio suddenly felt a numb scalp, and the feeling of magic appeared in his perception again.
this is--
"Attack—"
“Hahahahahaha————”
Before Manlio finished speaking, a laughter as bold as thunder resounded throughout the sky.
"Caster, organize defense!"
Matou Kariya gritted his teeth, but calmed down and began to assist Manrio in organizing the defense again.
--boom!!!
There was another force like thunder, but it was wrong! It hit the barrier set up by Manlio!
"Well--"
Manlio suddenly felt a sense of oppression. He waved his hands to control the space within a certain range, constantly twisting and sharing the magic power used by the opponent to attack.
"Hold on, Caster, I'm organizing—huh!?"
Matou Kariya has completed the integration of the gem weapons placed near the stronghold, and is already planning to launch a counterattack against the attackers, but——
Just like before, the attacker left again, and this time he disappeared faster and more completely than last time.
Only a string of hearty laughter was left in the sky, as well as screams that were covered up by loud noises.
Manlio and Matou Kariya looked at each other, and both could see the confusion in each other's eyes.
All in all, neither of us can get a good night's sleep tonight.
"Rider, are you crazy?"
Weber Velvet was sitting in Alexander's bullock cart, shouting without tears.
"I asked why you asked me to find a way to deal with those familiars in advance. It turns out that you also want to be an attacker!"
"Why are we launching an attack at this time? I clearly didn't give the order to attack!"
"I am the Master! You should obey the Master's orders and take action!"
Faced with the screams of his little master, Alexander's answer was that his mind was broken.
"ah!!!"
"What can you accomplish with your courage, boy!"
"It is not a good idea to just hide behind the scenes and observe. The other party wants to muddy the water, but also wants to control the turbidity of the water within a certain range. We can't get anything out of just hiding and observing.
!”
With his hands on his hips, Alexander had a hearty smile on his face.
"So - muddying the water to the point where the other party doesn't want to see it is what we should do now! It's already confusing enough, isn't it!"
"In a war like this, you have to abandon your stubborn ideas as a magician!"
"Woo."
Weber couldn't think of words to refute, so he could only lie in the bullock cart and scream.
