FATE: Target of Grand Master

"Country girl, I'll never let you get away with this again!"

Jeanne Alter once again manipulated Fafnir, unleashing flames at the group.

Xia Yan and the others scattered to avoid the danger, and each of them encountered their own opponents.

Standing before Lü Bu were the knight Dion, who had fled in defeat last time, and the executioner Sanson, as well as Black Mary, who had heard of Lü Bu's exploits and wanted to avenge her subordinates.

Diao Yunshang scratched her head. "Is Lu Bu cursed? How come he always has to fight three opponents at once?"

Compared to his worried master, Lu Bu seemed rather uninterested.

Although it was still one against three, why was it a woman who came this time?

On the other side, Hu Qiu was almost in tears, as his opponent from last time was still the Saintess Marda.

This is to pay back the debt he owed last time, but Hu Qiu doesn't know if he'll have to pay with his life this time.

Siegfried naturally charged toward the dragon Fafnir. The black dragon also sensed the threat Siegfried posed and remained in the air, using long-range attacks such as fireballs to restrain Siegfried.

The only one left was Jeanne Alter, who wanted to fight Jeanne one-on-one, but Lancelot, who was standing to the side, attacked Jeanne first.

"Berserker, this country bumpkin is my match!"

Jeanne Alter roared at Orianna, but Orianna didn't listen at all.

"Arthur!"

Faced with the attack of the Mad Orchid, Joan of Arc had no choice but to fight back.

Now, Xia Yan and Morgan have been left behind, as no enemy servants have approached them. This has left Morgan feeling resentful and neglected.

"Master, who should we fight?"

Xia Yan first looked at Gilles, who was commanding the human forces against the monster army, then at Siegfried, who was fighting the dragon Fafnir, and finally chose to face Joan of Arc, who was forced to fight two against one.

"Morgan, lure the Berserker over here."

Morgan watched as Jeanne was relentlessly attacked by Berserker Lancelot, forced to defend passively, while Jeanne Alter could only watch the comical scene with helpless frustration. She said, "Master, it seems I can't attract that Berserker's attention either. He's too obsessed with that saintess."

"No, there is a way. You just need to remove the disguised black mist and shout at that Berserker."

"real?"

Morgan could hardly believe that Xia Yan had asked him to do something so simple.

"Really! When have I ever lied to you?"

On a whim, Morgan dropped his disguise and shouted at Kuran, "Hey, Berserker over there, dare to fight me?!"

Kuang Lan glanced at Morgan in the distance and immediately froze.

He looked back and forth between Morgan and Joan of Arc several times, and finally seemed to make a decision. He rushed towards Morgan, still shouting the indistinct "Arthur" under his breath.

Jeanne nodded to Xia Yan in thanks, while Black Jeanne was finally able to fight Jeanne one-on-one because the obstacle had been drawn away.

Before the battle began, Black Jeanne also looked at Xia Yan, and felt an urge to thank him.

But once she realized what was happening, Jeanne Alter naturally wouldn't thank the enemy's Master, so she channeled all her frustration into anger and vented it on Jeanne d'Arc.

Morgan was indeed a little surprised to see Kuang Lan rushing towards him. Was his face even more hateful than Joan of Arc's?

Morgan was unaware that the reason he immediately attracted the Berserker's firepower was because the opponent was Lancelot, a Berserker-class warrior with a deep obsession with King Arthur.

Both Joan of Arc and Morgan have the same face as Artoria. Among the two, Morgan, whose appearance and temperament are closer to Artoria, is more like King Arthur in the eyes of Mad Lan than Joan of Arc.

Of course, Xia Yan dared not say any of the above to Morgan. He simply ran behind a rock and did what an ordinary Master should do—protect himself and observe the situation.

"Don't get so close to me!"

Morgan fired several black spears, trying to stop Mad Oran's charge, unaware that he was handing Mad Oran weapons.

Despite moving at high speed, Kuang Lan deftly dodged the first black spear attack, grabbed it in his hand, and knocked down the remaining black spears that were subsequently fired at him.

"This is..."

Although Mad Lan's movements were very fast, Morgan could still see them very clearly, and the more he looked at the berserker's martial arts, the more familiar he felt with them.

"Your Majesty, the one opposite us is Lancelot in a berserk state."

Xia Yan informed Morgan of the other party's identity as a Servant through telepathy.

Lancelot!

No wonder!

Morgan suddenly realized why Xia Yan had only allowed him to show his face earlier.

His face was exactly the same as the hateful Artoria's, and Xia Yan used this to divert Kuang Lan's attention to him.

Morgan could tolerate everything else, but the fact that she was allowed to impersonate Artoria was her absolute trigger point.

"Xia Yan, you knew the other person's real name from the beginning, didn't you?"

Morgan's cold tone made Xia Yan realize that she knew she had touched a nerve.

"I'm sorry, Your Majesty Morgan. I'm willing to accept punishment after the battle."

Without making excuses or offering explanations, Xia Yan immediately slid to his knees and apologized.

"Hmph. You just wait."

Morgan stopped paying attention to Xia Yan's conversation; in front of her stood Lancelot, hailed as the strongest Knight of the Round Table.

While Berserk reduced Lancelot's thinking and communication abilities, it undeniably enhanced his strength, endurance, and agility.

Wielding two black spears fired by Morgan, Kuang Lan launched a dazzling attack on Morgan, even the Queen of the Fairy Kingdom was temporarily overwhelmed by her opponent.

"Arthur!"

Kuang Lan shouted and raised his black spear high, then slashed it down at Morgan.

Morgan immediately summoned eight black spears of the same quality from the ground and crossed them in front of him to intercept.

Logically speaking, Morgan could have summoned a high-quality replica for defense. Given Lancelot's offensive power, his inferior replica would have been damaged. However, Morgan's familiarity with Lancelot was no less than Xia Yan's, so he naturally knew that Lancelot was able to attack with his black spear because of his Noble Phantasm—Knights Never Die Barehanded.

Anything that Lancelot deems a "weapon" will become a Noble Phantasm equivalent to a D-rank when he picks it up, while Noble Phantasms that were originally of a higher rank will fall under Lancelot's control at their original rank.

It can be said that Berserker Lancelot's Noble Phantasm is not only practical, but also becomes stronger against stronger opponents, especially effective against enemies who are accustomed to using items.

In Fate/Zero, Berserker Lancelot relied on this Noble Phantasm to hold his own against Gilgamesh, the King of Heroes.

Morgan is now facing the same predicament as Gilgamesh was. Once Morgan uses a higher-quality replica of Rungominiad, it will immediately become a weapon in Lancelot's hands.

High-quality replicas for defense naturally require equally high-quality replicas. Over time, Xia Yan's magic supply will definitely not be enough for Morgan's consumption.

Fortunately, Morgan isn't just a prop enthusiast like Gilgamesh; she's a fairy queen who's proficient in many kinds of magic.

Using spatial magic, Morgan summoned several black spears. However, this time, the black spears were neither used for attack nor defense. Instead, they were used at a tricky angle and at just the right time to fix Mad Oran's armor, imprisoning the black knight in place.

With a roar, Kuang Lan immediately swung the black gun in his hand and broke free from his restraints, but even a brief moment was enough for Morgan to unleash his magic.

"Don't get so close to me!"

Morgan waved his hand, and the black, magical water formed a giant wave that instantly swallowed Mad Orchid.
