Compared to this, don't you see how much progress you've made?

Sigh! Can I blame myself for dealing with such incredibly capable people?

According to the writing style of fantasy novels, under normal circumstances, one should encounter increasingly stronger enemies as their strength increases.

But in reality, the boss I encountered at the very beginning was the super boss that would only appear in the second half of the story... and my strength was the kind that could only be improved steadily, and it was difficult to reach a certain level in one step.

Forget it, it's all tears if I keep talking about it!

Tsuchimikado Fuyu mentally complained twice, then rushed forward with Shuten-dōji to fight Lancelot.

On the other side, Enkidu also clashed with Atalanta. However, their fight was actually quite restrained, and it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say they were chatting.

Enkidu shot three more weapons from the ground, which Atalanta blocked with her bow and arrow. She said, "Let's find another place, or we might accidentally hurt these children."

Atalanta looked at her Master, and after receiving his consent, she followed Enkidu to a flat area not far away.

"You must be on the White side too, right? I don't know your class, but why are you helping the Black side's Master? You're clearly competitors, don't you want to achieve your own goals?"

Enkidu smiled and said, "A wish? It's already come true."

I didn't really have any wishes. If I had to say, it would be to meet my friends again!

Whether she encountered Gilgamesh in Valhalla was something she herself didn't know, because this clone of hers was in the state before her death, so she had no memory of Valhalla after her death.

"And what about your Aster?"

"She and the Black Faction's Master are lovers, and their goal is to help him fulfill his wish."

"I see. But why did you tell me this information?"

“But there’s no need to hide it, is there?” Enkidu said with a smile. “By the way, besides the Holy Grail War, our goal is also to save those children. You should already know about their situation.”

Atalanta was taken aback upon hearing this, and then nodded with some distress. Although she knew about the children's problems, she couldn't solve them, which made her very upset.

So she decided that after obtaining the Holy Grail, she hoped to use it to restore the health of all the cursed children in the world.

“We have already found solutions to these problems. We have saved all the cursed children in this outer area. Only those you are protecting remain.”

Enkidu said, "I don't expect you to believe me, after all, we are enemies now. But if they have any health problems, please send them to us as soon as possible."

“Okay.” Atalanta couldn’t believe Enkidu’s words, but she couldn’t see for herself either, so Enkidu’s method was the best.

After all, if the children's bodies really couldn't hold on, then she could only trust that Tsuchimikado Fuyu and the others could solve the problem, because she herself was truly helpless in this matter.

"The communication is over. Now let me see the power of the legendary hero, Atalanta." Enkidu smiled and pressed his hands to the ground, instantly unleashing a barrage of weapons.

With so many weapons, Atalanta didn't have time to shoot them all down one by one, so she could only keep dodging.

To be honest, seeing Enkidu's attack methods made her wonder if the other party was the real Archer, and she was the fake one.

Even though he was the archer on the white side, the opponent's shooting was more intense than his.

……

"Tamamo-no-Mae, aren't you going to help?" On the rooftop, September looked at the three battlefields below and asked her uncle, who was protecting her, with some eagerness.

"No rush, let's see how well Xiaodong is doing." Tamamo-no-Mae's voice rang in September and Megumi's ears. "But Ootakemaru, aren't you going to get some exercise?"

At this moment, the golden magatama at the waist of the sage only let out a cold snort, completely ignoring Tamamo-no-Mae.

Does Ōtakemaru not want to fight?

He definitely wanted to, after all, he hadn't fought a strong opponent in a long time.

However, he is only three stars now, and his strength has not been fully unlocked. He is good at being a bodyguard, but if he participates in the battles there, he will not only fight in a frustrating way, but he will also easily become a hindrance.

After all, he's not a masochist, so he wouldn't be stupid enough to rush in.

Chapter 1184 Kenneth's Confidence

In the outer area, the three battlefields were clearly defined. The heroic spirits used their respective methods, but each held back some of their strengths. The battles were back and forth, making for a very exciting fight.

Among them, the most serious one is probably Tsuchimikado Fuyu. After all, the Berserker Lancelot doesn't know what it means to hold back. He always goes all out in battle, relying on one word: recklessness!

To withstand his attack, Tsuchimikado Fuyu and Shuten-dōji used all their skills to fight him to a standstill.

However, if they continue fighting like this, Tsuchimikado Fuyu and his team will eventually lose.

Tsuchimikado Fuyu was once again knocked back by Lancelot. Shaking his hands, which were already a little numb from the impact, he complained, "Is Matou Kariya on drugs? Wasn't it said that he didn't have the aptitude of a magician? How come he can last longer without the help of the old bug?"

Tsuchimikado Fuyu had no idea that this was all thanks to Director Ken, but even so, Matou Kariya was already on the verge of collapse, since the magical energy provided by Kenneth was also limited.

After finishing his rant, Tsuchimikado Fuyu once again charged forward with his sword.

"Word of Power: Star Change!"

Suddenly, talismans shot out from his sleeve and stuck to the katana. Then, the talismans flashed with a blue light and disappeared into thin air, leaving only the shimmering blue light on the blade, as if the katana had been enchanted.

Although, Tsuchimikado Fuyu's move is not much different from enchanting.

……

While Tsuchimikado Fuyu and the others were fighting, a guy with a lemon-shaped haircut quietly walked into a small, dilapidated building nearby from below the rooftop where Megumi and the others were staying.

"Boiling, my blood!" He took out a vial of mercury and poured it on the ground, saying with a smile.

Upon touching the ground, the mercury immediately expanded into a sphere about half the height of a person, resembling a balloon.

Kenneth looked up at the ceiling and saw the mercury sphere shoot out threads.

But don't let its thinness fool you; its sharpness and strength are both superior to those of ordinary weapons.

The silk thread sliced ​​through the ceiling, instantly creating a circular hole.

Moreover, it wasn't just the ceiling above his head; this circular opening extended all the way to the rooftop, providing direct access to the roof.

After all, this is a magical artifact that Kenneth painstakingly developed. Not only is it powerful in attack, but it also has excellent defensive capabilities and can perform other functions such as tracking and searching, making it very practical.

Kenneth smiled as he stepped onto the Mercury, which transported him to the rooftop like an elevator. Looking at the already wary September, he confidently said:

"Kenneth El-Melloi, the ninth head of the Archibald family, has come to challenge you. Onmyoji of the Tsuchimikado family, let us fight a fair battle, risking our lives and honor for the Holy Grail that we both seek."

"Oh... if you're looking for Dong, he is..."

"Oh? You're not an Onmyoji?" Kenneth asked in confusion.

"No," September shook her head decisively, but blushed and muttered softly, "Although it does belong to the Tsuchimikado family."

"Then who are you? And why have you come to participate in the Holy Grail War?"

"My name is September, and I come from Fox Village. As for the Holy Grail War, I was just forced into it," September said, scratching her head.

"But it doesn't matter. Since we are enemies now, I can't let you go either, so let's have a fair fight."

"Then why are you asking so many questions? I thought you were just planning to cause trouble for Dong," September said speechlessly.

"Slash!" Kenneth was too lazy to waste any more words with September. With a soft shout, the mercury beneath his feet shot out several thick tentacles towards September, like a tentacle monster.

Unfortunately, before Mercury could even reach September, it was blocked by a woman with nine tails (?).

With a flick of her fan, Tamamo-no-Mae created several purple flames that blocked Mercury's path. "You really have a thick skin, bullying a minor girl."

Well, although September is over a hundred years old, according to the age calculation method of Non-Human Beings, she is still a little fox who was just born not long ago.

After all, Nezha, who lived thousands of years ago, was just a primary school student, so Jiu Yue's age can't be very old no matter how you calculate it.

"Oh? You're also a shikigami from that Onmyoji? You're definitely quite different from ordinary shikigami." Kenneth said curiously, looking at Tamamo-no-Mae.

To be fair, Kenneth, as a first-level lecturer in the Clock Tower's Summoning Department and a magician proficient in summoning and summoning techniques, was quite interested in this special shikigami, as it was a perfect match for his expertise.

Kenneth's attack didn't stop at all during the conversation; on the contrary, it became even more rapid.

Tamamo-no-Mae easily blocked the attack with her foxfire, and even occasionally managed to conjure black foxes with it to counterattack.

Although the two were evenly matched, Kenneth was completely unaware that he had only noticed September as his Master from beginning to end, as if he had ignored the other Master.

It must be said that Kenneth's combat experience is still too poor. If it were Kiritsugu Emiya, although he might not be able to find Megumi, he would definitely be on guard.

Of course, it's not that Kenneth wasn't vigilant; it's just that he had great faith in his Moon Spirit Essence Liquid, and even if the opponent launched a sneak attack, he could block it in time.

Sure enough, a whooshing sound suddenly came from behind him. Although the sound was not loud, Kenneth noticed it in time and quickly used some Moon Spirit Essence Liquid to block behind him, thus blocking Ōtakemaru's attack.

"Luming Slash!" Ōtakemaru roared, wielding the Yasakani no Magatama, and slashed fiercely at the Moon Spirit Essence Liquid.

The Moon Spirit Essence Liquid was indeed strong defensively, even capable of blocking bullets, but it was still brutally sliced ​​open by Ōtakemaru's full-force slash.

Although Kenneth was surprised by the power of Ōtakemaru's slash, he was not too flustered. Instead, the separated Moon Spirit Marrow Liquid immediately condensed into two tentacles, which shot fiercely at Ōtakemaru from both sides.

Upon seeing this, Ōtakemaru quickly took two steps back, and then the tentacles began to entangle him.

"If these are all the methods you have, then this victory..."

Just as Kenneth was preparing to unleash his full power to eliminate Ōtakemaru and Tamamo-no-Mae, the sound of swords being drawn came from his side once again.

Upon hearing this, Kenneth angrily changed his battle strategy, unleashing all of his protective Moon Spirit Essence towards the approaching Ten Thousand Year Bamboo.

So why is it said that Kenneth is not good at fighting?

Although he was able to suppress three shikigami at the same time while engaging in battle from three directions, his own body was wide open, and his defenses had become vulnerable.

Because of his pride and his disdain for the strength of the Master on Tsuchimikado Fuyu's side, he paid the price of being captured.

"Give up."

He heard a calm voice beside him, and a seemingly gentle girl suddenly appeared behind him. At the same time, a dagger was pressed against his neck, already piercing his skin and drawing blood.

Chapter 1185 The Saint Megumi Who Memorized Her Script

"Don't move it. This dagger is the treasure of that Hero King, and it's exceptionally sharp."

On the rooftop, Kenneth had a dagger pressed against his neck by Megumi. He was about to recall the Moon Spirit Essence to launch a sneak attack on Megumi, but Megumi wasn't stupid. Seeing the flow of mercury, she quickly pressed the dagger against his neck slightly.

The dagger sliced ​​open a small gash as easily as cutting tofu. Kenneth felt hot blood flowing down his neck, along with a cold and excruciating pain. He was too afraid to try anything more.

He had no idea about Shengren Hui's background, so he naturally didn't dare to act recklessly. Although there was no murderous intent in her voice, he would believe she was a professional assassin because of her silent and stealthy methods.

For a top-tier assassin like this, concealing their murderous intent is as easy as eating and drinking.

Little did he know, Satoshi Megumi really didn't dare to insert it any further.

After all, the tip of the dagger had already pierced through the skin. If he wasn't careful and his hand slipped, Kenneth would definitely be done for.

The sage Huike was not lying; the dagger was indeed sharp.

In fact, the reason why Megumi has been able to achieve what she has today is due to her consistently calm tone, coupled with the teachings she received from Uranus, which taught her how to efficiently deal with enemies without killing them in critical moments.

Although Wang Ha didn't understand Shengren Hui's request, after all, in his mind, the enemy could just be killed directly, why make things so complicated.
