Crossover Anime: Collecting Treasures from All Worlds Starting with Type-Moon

Chapter 354: Lancer Scathach enters!

"My old acquaintance, you mean...?"

Looking at the little black girl with a strange smile in front of him, Shen Qiu suddenly had an ominous premonition. Could it be that Jin Shanshan, that guy with a perverse sense of humor?

Before he could even ask a question, a large number of golden particles instantly appeared around Alaya, accompanied by a flash of golden light. The person who appeared before him was...

"Oh, it's been a long time, my dear disciple."

"It's actually... Master!"

Looking at the tall, mature woman in a tight-fitting purple combat suit not far away, Shen Qiu opened his mouth, but for a moment he couldn't say anything.

"They're really old acquaintances, the kind of people we know very well."

After all, the other party was his mentor, "660"!

My current fighting style, combat strategies, and even one of my biggest trump cards, the Primal Rune, were all learned from the other. My master's understanding of me is not 100%, but it is at least 90%.

"Long time no see, Master."

Shen Qiu smiled bitterly at the beautiful woman, while simultaneously racking his brains for a battle plan. However—

"As expected, there's still no really good way to fight my master..."

It's important to know that during that battle, Scáthach, who descended as a Caster, could hold her own against Gilgamesh in physical combat, and even Saaber could fight her to a standstill.

In the final battle, the [Mirror Gate Overflowing with Death] was even comparable to Gilgamesh's [Creation of the World: Star of Divergence].

As his former master, he knew exactly how monstrous the other's inherent skills were; a single move, "The Wisdom of the Magic Mirror," was enough to give him a headache.

Why do you seem unhappy to see me? Don't you want to see me?

Just as Shen Qiu put on a bitter face, his master's tone also became noticeably "unhappy".

"Of course not. It's not that I don't want to see my master, but meeting him as an enemy in this situation is really...troubling."

After letting out a sigh, he chose to accept reality. After all, he was already here, and even if Gilgamesh himself came, he would probably have to go through fire and water for him.

"Don't worry, what's here is just a projection of me. As for class... it's a Lancer. I'll go easy on you—"

"My little master."

After saying that, there was a tearing sound of air exploding, and Scáthach charged towards Shen Qiu!

"Unleash the magic! Activate!"

After so much time, Shen Qiu's magic power had long since recovered to its peak state, enough for him to expend for several hours. Therefore, he released his magic power without hesitation at the maximum level.

"Hatake Sword Technique - First Form: Aurora Flash!"

He poured a large amount of wind magic into Moonsilver without hesitation, causing it to hiss occasionally. Just before Scáthach arrived, he swung it away at incredible speed, and the target—

It was her head!

"The speed is good, but it's still a bit too slow!"

Before the katana's blade could even get within a two-meter radius of his master, Shen Qiu felt a sharp pain in the web of his right wrist. If it weren't for his current strength being at the level of a Heroic Spirit A, he probably wouldn't even be able to hold onto the katana's blade.

"Using a katana to fight a spear is really a huge disadvantage."

Realizing that his attack had missed, Shen Qiu decisively stopped halfway and, with a large amount of magic power released, immediately leaped dozens of meters backward.

The blade of a tachi is generally between 1.2 and 1.5 meters long. The Moon Silver is 1.5 meters long, which is considered relatively long among tachi.

The guns are generally around three meters in size, and the opponent is the Queen of the Shadow Kingdom, who wields them with unparalleled skill. It is not an easy task to gain any advantage in close combat.

"Water Style: Super: Explosive Water Wave!"

However, he had no time to think, because the several dozen meters he had gained only bought him less than a second; his master's next attack was already imminent.

"Using magic in front of me is like showing off your skills before an expert. Although I descended as a Lancer this time, I can still use simple runes!"

Looking at the massive waterfall, several meters high, surging towards her, Scáthach simply waved her right hand, and the waterfall froze in mid-air, forming a huge ice wall!

With another wave of his hand, the ice wall shattered into countless ice spikes, which then poured down in the opposite direction towards where Shen Qiu was!

"Plasma Disintegration Rays!"

Without complaining about his failed attempt to steal a chicken and losing the rice instead, Shen Qiu turned around and shot out a terrifying purplish-black energy beam more than ten meters long from his hand, disintegrating the hundreds of ice spikes that were about to turn him into a hedgehog into molecular particles.

"This is not the power of our plane."

Gaia, who was observing the battle from a short distance away, unusually showed a solemn expression.

"This power...destroys and annihilates without mercy, capable of breaking almost all matter on Earth down to molecular form, and undoubtedly comes from a higher dimension."

"You shouldn't..."

Seeing Gaia beside him, who seemed to be secretly "wanting to make a move," Alaya could no longer restrain herself.

"Never mind, at least for now, he hasn't shown any threat to Earth. His strength hasn't exceeded my control."

At this very moment, Shen Qiu, who was engaged in a fierce battle, had no idea that he had just escaped a crisis of annihilation.

"Noble Phantasm!"

Just as Shen Qiu was about to launch the next offensive, Scáthach suddenly threw the magic spear in her hand high into the air!

"What? It's so fast!"

Shen Qiu stared in astonishment at the purple spear that was rising high within his Mangekyou Sharingan; this was completely beyond his expectations.

His master showed him no mercy whatsoever; in fact, he was eager to kill him!

Chapter 354: Scáthach vs. Shen Qiu (Please subscribe!)

"Although she is much more mature than before, she still seems a little green."

In the instant she raised her beloved gun high, Scáthach took a moment to observe Shen Qiu's horrified face. Had she not expected her to use her Noble Phantasm so quickly?

"No, we must stop Master from activating his Noble Phantasm before his True Name is released!"

As her disciple, Shen Qiu was extremely familiar with this Queen of the Shadow Kingdom. She was a figure whose "sword strike, if mastered to perfection, could kill a god in the blink of an eye."

He did not consider himself stronger than the gods of the Age of Gods, nor could he harbor any illusions that he could dodge this attack with his intuition like Saber.

After all, this is an extremely rare "causality-type Noble Phantasm".

"There's no time to think about it. Since my master is going all out, I have to fight with all my might."

The vast power of his pupils filled Shen 11qiu's left eye almost instantly. Due to the overload of his pupil power, a line of bloody tears actually flowed from the corner of his left eye. However, he knew that doing so was absolutely necessary when dealing with an enemy of his master's level.

Otherwise, it won't have any effect at all.

"Kaleidoscope Sharingan—"

Enduring the immense pain in his left eye, Shen Qiu screamed out the name of this move.

"Time Reversal!!!"

Under the rather horrified gazes of Alaya and Gaia not far away, time was rapidly rewinding within a radius of about fifty meters where Shen Qiu was located!

"How is this possible? How could the Fifth Law..."

Even the usually composed little girl, Alaya, couldn't sit still any longer. Her eyes were fixed on the handsome young man, as if she wanted to see everything about him clearly.

"No, it's not the Fifth Law. If I'm not mistaken, it must also originate from power in another dimension. Just how many secrets is he hiding..."

In fact, there are quite a few magic tricks involving "time" among humans, such as Kiritsugu Emiya's Time Control. However, it is important to understand that this is not a true use of the power of "time".

Instead, they used a clever trick.

The true power to manipulate time is the Fifth Magic, the magic controlled by Aozaki Aoko. However, even Aoko's version is only an incomplete version of the Fifth Magic.

(There is much debate about what type of magic the Fifth Magic actually is. Until a new version is released, let's assume it's time magic for now.)

Shen Qiu, however, had precisely reversed the time in his area just a moment ago. Although it only lasted for a brief five seconds, it was a real event.

Gaia's expression had shifted from anger to an indescribable emotion, as the power Shen Qiu was displaying was far beyond their expectations.

"I don't know if it's a blessing or a curse..."

Alaya also sighed softly. As the force of restraint, they would not break their word, especially now that Shen Qiu had indeed not shown any "actions that would endanger the continuation of humanity on Earth".

Even when exercising restraint, there are fundamental principles to follow.

"Wait, where's my gun...? I remember throwing her into the air..."

The mature woman, dressed in a purple tight-fitting combat suit, looked at the spear lying untouched in the palm of her right hand with a somewhat bewildered expression. Could it be that everything just now was just her imagination?

"Hatake Sword Technique - Final Form - Storm!!!"

Before she could even recover from her shock, Shen Qiu's roar reached her ears, accompanied by a massive crescent-shaped blade of energy that stretched over thirty meters long!

Furthermore, the blade energy was mixed with a massive amount of destructive material composed of wind magic and void energy. Shen Qiu was certain that, let alone his master, even Gilgamesh Karna would be in serious trouble if he took this attack head-on!

"It's really fun."

Looking at the fierce blade energy that was now almost within reach, and she could already feel its cutting power, a strange smile appeared on her face.

Then, just as Shen Qiu predicted, the master easily dodged the attack he had poured so much effort into with an incredibly unbelievable mid-air somersault.

"The wisdom of the demonic realm, huh? That's really troublesome..."

During the time he was still a master, he personally witnessed how his master used this ridiculously powerful innate skill to manipulate enemies at will.
