"So who on earth would place the position in such a place..."
The place where Tohsaka Rin is currently located is on the rooftop of the private Suiqun Academy.
Her tone was somewhat speechless.
"It is indeed a position that absorbs the surrounding magic, and it is chain-like."
The spiritual form was hidden beside Tohsaka Rin. The moon had just risen in the sky. Archer analyzed the nature of the magic position in front of him and said to his master.
"In other words, there should be other such positions in Fuyuki City?"
Tohsaka Rin frowned.
She could feel that the quality of the magic position in front of her was not low. The magician who arranged this position must be a capable guy. Moreover, at this time, such a position appeared, and the person who arranged it was besides the Master in the Holy Grail War.
There is almost no second possibility.
"The purpose should be to provide additional demons for your followers, and the method is good."
Archer said nonchalantly.
"You servants still need additional magic power? Doesn't it mean that the master only needs to provide magic power, which is enough to maintain the present world?"
Rin seemed a little confused about the purpose of the current magic formation.
"There is never too much magic power. You have to understand this truth. However, there are also those who are lacking in talent as a master, so they need such means to make up for it. But judging from the layout, the level is still good.
It’s probably just for extra reinforcement, time to appear in the world, and durability of magic power.”
Archer guessed the purpose of this Master.
"What should I do, Master, do you want to destroy this position?"
Tohsaka Rin has not made a decision yet.
Destroying this position can indeed affect the enemy's strength to a certain extent, but based on intelligence alone... the impact is not fatal.
Moreover, you may also expose yourself by destroying this position.
From the information she knew, the only other Master she knew was Sakura, and this magic position was obviously not arranged by Sakura...
When you don't know the identity of the enemy, it is actually the best choice not to alert the enemy.
"Archer, we-"
Now that he has the idea of retreating temporarily, Tohsaka Rin plans to leave——
But just when she was about to call Archer to leave together, a magical reaction suddenly broke into her perception.
"Are you just going to leave like this? Aren't you going to destroy this position?"
Rin looked in the direction of the sound——
A man wearing blue tights and a red spear on his shoulder was squatting on the school's water tank.
"...Did you arrange this thing?"
She did not fall into panic, but chose to question him directly.
"No."
The blue tights shook his head.
"Generally speaking, small actions like this are arranged by your magicians. Servants only follow instructions to fight."
"That's right...the little brother over there?"
What he was looking at was the direction where Archer had transformed into a spirit child.
...a servant of the enemy.
Rin gave his own judgment.
And look at that crimson spear... it should be Lancer, one of the three knights with Archer... right?
She just made a guess and did not identify the servant in front of her as Lancer.
In the Holy Grail War, it is a very common method for servants to hide their job description and real name. Especially in the early stages of the Holy Grail War, the exchange of intelligence warfare is even more important than direct combat with real swords and guns.
After all, although the true name of the servant represents a legend, in such a life-and-death battle, it represents more - weakness.
"So, you are my enemies."
The servant who looked like Lancer stood up from the water tank and looked at Tohsaka Rin below.
...Are you planning to launch an attack?
Tohsaka Rin looked around with the corner of his eye.
...No, the venue here is too narrow.
The school's rooftop is surrounded by barbed wire, so the entire rooftop is considered an enclosed space.
If the opponent is Lancer, who is good at close combat, a fight breaking out here would be very detrimental to Archer and me...!
"You may look like a novice, but do you actually have some common sense in fighting?"
"Tsk, I've already arrived so I wouldn't say hello like this."
The spear in his hand was covered with the same red light.
——The opponent is planning to attack!
You must leave from here first!
The servant who looked like Lancer jumped up from the water tank, raised the spear in his hand, and smashed it down below where Tohsaka Rin was standing.
The Tosaka Family Magic Seal in Tohsaka Rin's right hand activated a magic that did not require chanting. His agility and strength instantly increased, and he flew to the side, avoiding Lancer's first wave of attacks. At the same time, he put his hands on the ground and bounced again in an instant.
stand up.
Lancer's offensive did not stop, his spear swept across, and then he swung towards Tohsaka Rin.
He grabbed the barbed wire fence with both hands, turned over and let himself fly into the air. While avoiding Lancer again, Tohsaka Rin jumped directly from the roof of the school.
It was obvious - she was prepared.
"Archer! Land!"
Adjusting his posture in the air so that his back was facing the ground, Tohsaka Rin closed his eyes.
And Archer——successfully caught his Master.
"Run in that direction—!"
Archer put Tohsaka Rin on the ground, and a black blade appeared in his hand——
Ping!!!
Archer was shocked and took two steps back.
Lancer and Archer confronted each other.
"Haha... I like a sensible person like you. It's really not interesting to simply kill a master. A battle like the Holy Grail War, isn't it a battle between servants?"
Lancer smiled and his attacking posture did not change.
"So...you should be Lancer."
This time Tohsaka Rin gave his own judgment.
The strength parameters are obviously stronger than Archer, in close combat...
All in all, the other party should be the real Lancer.
"That's right." Lancer didn't mean to hide his job offer.
"But your servant doesn't look like Saber."
His eyes rested on the black sword held in Archer's hand.
Archer said nothing, but looked at Lancer warily.
"The power just now proves that you are not Saber, and you are not riding something. If you are an assassin, your spirit transformation did not cover your aura, and you don't look like a madman. You can get close to me for a short time.
Fight, so he won’t be a weak guy like Caster..."
"Let me guess, are you Archer?"
In just a brief moment of exchange, enough information was exposed, and both Tohsaka Rin and Archer's eyes shrank.
...but didn't Rin call Archer several times just now?
"So--"
"Take out your bow, Archer."
"I will still give you this little time."
On the school playground, Lancer said confidently.
