My two-dimensional resident

"Stepping on Stars"

......

As expected, with the last bloodsucking insect turning to ashes, Zouken Matou, who had lived for over two hundred years, met a tragic end at the hands of the young "Fairy Queen."

"Whoo~"

After sensing the death of the three insects inside her body, Erza finally couldn't hold on any longer. The elemental fireball instantly reverted to human form, and she collapsed onto the withered grass.

"Whoosh~ Whoosh~ Whoosh~"

Erza gasped for breath; she didn't even have the strength to take an apple out of her inventory.

'Hmm...Brother, it seems Erza defeated a very powerful enemy...'

Erza's spirit began to falter; the Flame-Flame Fruit consumed not only her physical strength but also the mental energy of its user.

Gradually, the world in her dark eyes became increasingly blurry and narrow. She realized this was because she had exerted too much force and it was her body's protective mechanism after she was exhausted.

'I'm about to fall asleep...'

But were there still enemies around? Erza didn't know.

But she knew that if she fell into a deep sleep and encountered the enemy before her brother discovered her, she would become a hostage and endanger her brother.

'No, I can't pass out. I can still fight!'

A powerful will erupted from Erza's soul, and a bright red apple appeared in her hand.

But... the next second, the apple rolled away from her limp hand and fell to the side.

'Damn it! Oh, sorry. I swear!'

As her last hope slipped through her fingers, Erza blamed herself, her world growing ever narrower until it was nothing more than a sliver of sky.

Erza felt a sense of despair, no! More than that, guilt, regret, and self-blame.

She reflected on why she hadn't controlled her energy and conserved the strength to eat the apple...

Brother, I'm sorry to have disappointed you.

......

"Erza?! Erza! What's wrong with you???"

A fiery red figure flashed in front of Erza. Lin Tian saw his unconscious sister and his heart clenched. He hurriedly knelt down to check on Erza's condition.

He breathed a sigh of relief when he realized she had just fainted from exhaustion, but then anger rose within him!

They actually pushed Erza to this point!

It's so nasty!

This is tolerable for a man, but not for a brother!

"Tohsaka Tokiomi! Kotomine Kirei! Matou Zouken! You three old bastards, just you wait! What kind of skill is it to bully a little girl!"

The fiercely protective brother is back!

Originally, Lin Tian only wanted to fulfill his promise to Hercules in this Holy Grail War, while also acting as a third party to gain some benefits.

Just like a player entering a dungeon they are very familiar with, they can obtain more rewards based on the storyline they know.

But... now, these "dungeon NPCs" actually dared to gang up on him and harm his sister!

Lin Tian's mindset has changed slightly.

Lin Tian gently picked up the unconscious Erza with both hands, and once again activated his Byakugan to survey the situation on the two battlefields around him. He discovered that Kirei Kotomine was no longer present on Ace's side.

He used his flamethrower again and flew towards Ace's location.

As for Lancelot, he no longer had the mind to pay attention to the battle between Lancer and Gilgamesh.

The main task now is to help Ace deal with Assassin, and then let Ace take the unconscious Erza away from here.

After finishing an apple, Lin Tian arrived at Ace's battlefield. Watching the Assassins who had been annihilated by Ace only to regenerate, his expression turned serious.

At this moment, Lin Tian is completely different from the Lin Tian who lived on the adorable Rabbit Island.

"Self-destruct, Rondanini's black hound! Burn to ashes and slit your own throat! Binding Spell Nine: Collapse Wheel!"

The incantation of the demonic path from the world of death once again resounded throughout the forest.

As the incantation for the ninth form of the Binding Spell, Collapse Wheel, ended, strands of yellow, rope-like spiritual particles rapidly spread from Lin Tian's fingertips, wrapping around the bodies of the Assassins fighting Ace.

Lin Tian did not wait for the moment when the Ninth Binding Spell - Collapse Wheel - would trap the Assassins, because he believed that no matter how the Assassins tried to dodge, they could not escape the yellow rope that resembled a venomous snake.

They are a group of fierce venomous snakes that will follow their prey relentlessly until they catch it.

Out of the corner of his eye, he saw the ropes of the collapsing wheel extend to Assassin's side.

Lin Tian concentrated his mind and mobilized the spiritual power within his body once again, and another incantation of the Ghost Path rang out from his mouth.

"You ruler! Mask of flesh and blood, myriad things, soaring wings, things bearing the name of humanity! Scorching heat and strife, sweeping southward across the sea, advancing step by step! The Thirty-One Crimson Fire Cannon of the Destruction Path!"

A ball of fire radiating soul pressure appeared in front of Lin Tian. The instant he shouted "Crimson Fire Cannon," the ball of fire flew at an extremely fast speed toward the Assassins who were gathered together by ropes.

boom!

Flames rose everywhere, and smoke swirled around.

The Crimson Cannon struck the Assassins who were struggling to break free of the Guardian's restraints. The powerful Kido left these Assassins, who had already exhausted too much magic power in their battle with Ace, with no strength left to defend against this terrifying attack that threatened their souls.

"Ah ah ah ah ah!"

Male voices, female voices, elderly voices, adult voices, strong man voices, teenager voices... different forms of Assassin voices uttered their own shouts.

Unable to escape the range of the Crimson Fire Cannon, their cores collapsed and shattered one after another!

As the last Assassin's mask was burned to ashes.

In the Fourth Holy Grail War, Assassin followed in Caster's footsteps, becoming the second Servant to be eliminated.

Chapter 127 The Greatest Teacher and the Most Filial Student in History

"Lin Tian, ​​you! Huh? What's wrong with Erza?"

Assassin's death happened too quickly, which angered Ace, who was fighting him. Just as he was about to berate Lin Tian for stealing his opponent, he saw Erza on Lin Tian's back.

With no opponent left, Ace turned his gaze to Lin Tian, ​​who had suddenly intervened. He was initially dissatisfied because his opponent had been killed by Lin Tian, ​​but then he discovered that Erza had fallen into a deep sleep.

At this moment, he couldn't care less about demanding an explanation from Lin Tian. He quickly went to Lin Tian's side and inquired about Erza's condition. His expression and words revealed his anxiety and concern for Erza.

"It's nothing, I'm just exhausted. Erza is in your care! Take her back to Illya. I'll take care of things here!"

Lin Tian expressionlessly lifted Erza from behind and placed her in Ace's arms. He then turned to look at the area where the three Heroic Spirits were fighting, his expression filled with killing intent.

'You dare let Erza get hurt? You'll all die today! Tokiomi Tohsaka, Kirei Kotomine, and Zouken Matou!'

Injured? Exhausted and unconscious?

Yes, in Lin Tian's hypocritical mind, Erza sneezing is considered an injury.

"They're all running away, but can they escape with their temple?"

Because Erza eventually fell into a coma, Lin Tian was unaware that Zouken Matou had been killed by Erza.

In his mind, these three people who caused Erza to collapse from exhaustion must pay with their lives.

Gilgamesh is currently fighting Lancer and Lancelot, and Kirei Kotomine and Zouken Matou's Servants are no longer present.

Theoretically speaking, without the protection of the Heroic Spirits, these three would be no match for him.

Sensing that Lancer and Lancelot's magic was waning on the other battlefield, he knew that his time for revenge was running out.

Seeing Lin Tian's anger, Ace, who had originally intended to stay and teach the culprits a lesson with him, hesitated for a moment and nodded to Lin Tian.

"I'll come to your aid after I hand Erza over to Illya!"

After saying that, he used the fire breath he had just learned, and flew into the sky with Erza, turning into a shooting star and heading towards Illya's castle.

Meanwhile, Lin Tian, ​​seeing Ace leave, didn't immediately go looking for Tokiomi and the others. He took out an apple and bit into it to replenish his depleted spiritual energy, while simultaneously activating his Byakugan to search for any trace of the three of them within a one-kilometer radius.

Point Guard Here

'Kirei Kotomine isn't around? Did he reunite with Tokiomi Tohsaka? Or...did he abandon his master and run away?'

I thought I could find Kirei Kotomine's whereabouts around the battle between Assassin and Ace, but I didn't expect him to be so cautious. He abandoned his servant when he saw that things were not going well.

'Looks like I'll have to go find Tokiomi Tohsaka first!'

When they encountered the ambush, Lin Tian had already used his Byakugan to locate Tokiomi Tohsaka's position.

'As long as he doesn't run away like the other two...'

Having determined his target for avenging Erza, an endless killing intent erupted from Lin Tian.

In a flash, a crimson figure darted through the forest, leaving only an afterimage in place.

At this moment, Tokiomi Tohsaka, standing atop a massive summoning magic circle, felt a tremor in his heart, and a sense of unease spread throughout his body.

The arm with only one Command Seal hovered in front of its chest, its eyes gazing into the distance with a look of confusion...

"Kirei, you're back. Did you deal with that magician (Ace)?"

Suddenly, a figure appeared behind him. Tokiomi Tohsaka sensed that the other person's aura was that of his student, Kirei Kotomine, and his heart gradually calmed down.

If the plan succeeds, then the mysterious magician (Lin Tian) who took Lancer and Berserker will become a stepping stone for him to obtain the Holy Grail.

"Mentor, are we really going to start it?"

Kirei Kotomine did not answer Tokiomi Tohsaka's question. Dressed in a black priest's robe and holding a brown hardcover Bible (New Testament), he stood behind Tokiomi Tohsaka with a somber expression.

His deep, magnetic voice subtly revealed his disapproval of Tokiomi Tohsaka's plan.

However, Tokiomi Tohsaka, who was determined to seize the Holy Grail War, did not give much thought to his student's question. He simply thought that Kirei Kotomine was somewhat resistant to this plan that violated the Holy Grail War.

Adjusting his bow tie, Tokiomi Tohsaka took three rubies from his pocket. He looked down at the rubies in his hand, his expression a mixture of reluctance and resolute determination.

"Kirei, do you know? From the moment I was born, my mission has been to win the Holy Grail War... So, no matter what methods, schemes, or means I use, the winner of this Holy Grail War can only be me."

As your mentor, I'll teach you another lesson. That is...

Pfft!
