The world of Type-Moon starts with saving Altria!

This is enough.

The Mortal Sword glowing with white light slashed towards the blue spearman.

This time, the fighting method is much more powerful than before.

Duang!

Sparks fly!

The dark red spear in the blue spearman's hand spun and flew in the air, and finally landed somewhere.

He was also knocked to the edge of the spear, looking quite embarrassed.

The battle situation seemed to be one-sided.

only--

Really?

The blue spearman struggled to stand up again.

He held his dark red spear again, and a barely perceptible curve appeared at the corner of his mouth.

"It should be... about time, right?"

[You feel that something is wrong with the battle situation.]

[Although in the Holy Grail War, the perceived strength between Servants and Masters is sometimes quite different. ]

[But you can clearly feel that Lanser is not like this because of his strength. ]

【He seemed to be retreating deliberately.】

[This is a very classic baiting tactic. ]

[You feel like Vivian is about to suffer a serious loss.]

[Somehow, you find yourself taking action.]

Lancer's real name is Cu Chulainn.

In the fifth Holy Grail War, he was summoned by his master Scathach.

of course.

For Cu Chulainn, he had no idea that his Master would be her - the Son of Light later learned that this was a summoning through the Gae Bolg Alternative.

It can only be him, and it is destined to be him.

Now you have no choice but to be honest.

But having said that——

Cu Chulainn still keenly noticed one thing.

That is, there is something wrong with his master Scathach.

Where does this abnormality mainly manifest itself?

First of all, Scathach ordered herself to keep an absolute distance from her and not pretend to know each other.

This is very different from the one in Cu Chulainn's memory.

After all, old ladies in the past didn’t care about such things at all.

It's like he's trying to prove something to someone.

Secondly, because of the reasons mentioned above, Cu Chulainn usually had to disguise himself as a handyman at the private Hogunhara Academy.

He was very surprised to find that there was a rumor in the school that his master Scathach was in love with a man named Ian.

to be frank.

This was something Cu Chulainn had never expected.

The old woman who was never tempted actually allowed this situation to happen - did she have no intention of making the strange gossip disappear?

Hiss...if you think about it this way.

Was it because of this man named Ian that she had kept her distance from him before?

Ouch, s**t.

Someone who can make an old woman fall in love?

What level is this?

And speaking of which... the name Ian seems a little familiar.

The more Cu Chulainn thought about it, the more curious he became - if he had the chance, he really wanted to see what kind of person was the one who could attract the heart of this thousand-year-old craftsman.

If it really doesn't work, it's not impossible to make such a wish using the Holy Grail.

of course.

Think about it, do it.

Although Cu Chulainn had many strange ideas in his mind, he wanted to verify them.

but--

He would never mention these things in front of Scathach.

On the one hand, he was mainly afraid that the old woman would become angry and humiliated after being hit in the vitals, and would take her resentment out on himself.

on the other hand.

He still respected this master very much, not to mention that he was now summoned by her as a Lancer for the Holy Grail War.

It is neither moral nor logical to joke about such things.

not to mention--

If the master can really have an emotional breakthrough, that may not be a bad thing.

after all……

She is indeed lonely.

Far away.

Cu Chulainn returned to reality.

As an opponent, he absolutely recognized the Rider in front of him.

Although she looked like a very pretty girl, her horse-riding skills did not become flashy because of this.

The white horse under her was of excellent quality as well.

if you can--

Cu Chulainn wished he could have a good fight with her.

only--

Not now.

As a Lancer, he felt the determination of his master Scathach to win the Holy Grail War.

Therefore, we must adopt the method that has the greatest chance of success.

And such a method does exist.

His master, Scathach, was not just a genius in the use of guns.

Her attainments in magic were also quite impressive - this was also the reason why she was recognized as a magician by the Holy Grail and was able to participate in this Holy Grail War.

This was a carefully planned trap battle.

Scathach had already cast her magic nearby.

As a "chess piece", all Cu Chulainn had to do was to pretend to be defeated and lure Rider and her Master to this area.

of course.

Although he was pretending to retreat, Cu Chulainn was actually beaten badly.

After all, Rider and her warhorse are not just for show.

but--

As a Lancer, Cu Chulainn has the abilities of "Battle Continuation" and "Return to the Beginning".

The former can prevent him from dying even if he is seriously injured;

The latter can ensure that he can escape at the critical moment, so that he does not have to face certain injuries head-on.

But having said that, Cu Chulainn also knew that this was not a panacea.

The Rider and her Master before them were indeed quite formidable in strength.

Old woman, it’s time to come——

Cu Chulainn silently looked at the surrounding environment, tightly gripping the Gáe Bolg in his hand, and posing like a loser struggling to defend himself.

at last.

The defeat began to be reversed.

Vivian, who intended to seize this first victory, did not notice a figure appearing in the dark.

That's Scathach.

At this time, she had already used magic to weave a battle outfit for herself - it was enough to conceal her identity and mislead others so that they could not detect the truth.

The magic she prepared also took effect at this moment.

That was something that only a Rune magic genius like her could do.

Scathach's hunting has always been about efficiency.

After all, she often has to face extremely powerful opponents, and even just a chance to struggle may lead to a counterattack from the opponent.

and so--

In addition to magic, the queen of the Shadow Kingdom took a return to nature approach.

That is to throw his Gae Bolg Alternative physically instead of in the form of a Noble Phantasm.

In this way, it is no longer a killing in the concept of magic.

And the defense set up against magic attacks will become meaningless.

of course.

This would place very high demands on the user himself - after all, there is no magical power to bless him.

But Scathach doesn't have to worry about that at all.

because--

She is the embodiment of the gun!

Phew!

The Gae Bolg Alternative was thrown towards Vivian.

As the witch's servant, Altria was so focused on fighting Lancer that she didn't notice the attack that threatened her Master.

By the time she reacted, it was too late.

“Master——!”

Vivian, who reacted to Altria's exclamation, also noticed the spear flying towards her.

She wanted to activate the defensive magic she had prepared, but found that it was suppressed by Scathach's arrangement.

It was too late to use it before the gun stabbed it!

This is... a dead end?!

However, the final result was beyond everyone's imagination.

hiss-

The Gae Bolg Alternative did hit one person.

But that wasn't Vivian.
