I'm really not a top magician

It’s really too powerful.

"The game should be over, caster."

Sajo Aika suddenly shouted to the battlefield, "Saber's abilities are very strong, it's time to get serious."

Saber couldn't help but feel her heart tighten at Sajo Aika's words.

As the number of encounters increased, Saber's judgment of the Servant in front of her became clearer.

Is it really him...

Irisviel, who was behind Saber, couldn't help but start to get nervous. How could a caster tie with Saber in close combat?

Then his true strength should not be underestimated.

Thinking of this, Irisviel wondered whether she should retreat for the time being.

After all, Kiritsugu's plan was to have Irisviel pretend to be the real Master, to attract the enemy's attention from the front with Saber, and then he would use a rifle to attack from behind.

Even if the opponent uses other magic tricks to hide his figure, they are useless in front of the machine.

All the previous magi had died in the hands of Emiya Kiritsugu in the same way.

"I understand, Master!"

Caster spoke in a frivolous masculine voice. This was his first time speaking, but as an idol, a voice like this would probably charm a lot of women.

Saber was also stunned when she heard this voice.

That voice is definitely his...

"You dare to be distracted when facing the enemy? It seems that I haven't taught you well before, Artoria!"

Seize the moment when Saber's attention is split,

Sajo Aika's servant took the lead in launching the attack.

In his right hand, a long sword gleamed with golden light.

Cut straight at Saber.

boom!

Another clash of weapons between the two sides.

But this time it was Aika Sajo's servant who launched the attack.

Seeing his attack was blocked by Saber,

The caster who swung the sword with one hand did not stop,

On the contrary, precisely because it was one-handed, it was more flexible, and it slashed at Saber continuously and quickly.

Bang bang bang!

Three times exactly.

Saber blocked these three attacks,

At the last moment, Saber used the long sword in his hand to block the opponent's attack.

Then he held the sword with both hands,

Use your palm to lift upwards.

The middle door of Caster is open.

Lore!

Just as Saber swung her sword with all her might,

Feeling the magic,

The staff in Caster's left hand, which was now empty, had already completed a magic trick.

boom!

A pink flower magic instantly submerged Saber.

"Saber!"

Irisviel screamed.

But soon Saber jumped out of the flower magic and jumped in front of Irisviel.

"I'm fine, Irisviel."

Because of her resistance to magic, she didn't have many scars on her body.

On the contrary, sweat began to appear on Caster's face. As a Caster, he was too arrogant to fight against Saber.

In this confrontation, it seems that Caster has the upper hand, using magic to hit Saber and causing some trouble for her.

However, anyone with a little experience in combat could see that the last magic trick was just a temporary measure as a last resort.

Because Saber's magic resistance can block a lot of magic. If the magic just now was not powerful enough, Saber might have ignored the magic and just killed it with a knife.

But thanks to that magic trick just now,

Saber was finally able to confirm the true identity of the magus before her.

"You must be Merlin!"

Saber, holding the invisible sword, questioned, "Not only do you know my real name, but you also know that move..."

"Merlin!"

Irisviel was surprised again. "The Merlin you're talking about is the legendary flower magician from Great Britain, who was also your Saber..."

"Yes, he is my mentor and my good friend." Saber admitted personally.

In such a public occasion,

He couldn't help but explain the identity of the caster, and in a disguised way admitted that he was King Arthur of Britain.

"So, Merlin, why are you here?" Saber once again questioned the man in front of her who was hiding his face with a hood.

"This is a thing, who knows..." C Dai pretended to be mysterious and acted like Merlin.

But in Saber's opinion, Merlin has already acknowledged his identity.

But all this is just a strategy between Aika Shajo and Cdai.

……

At the same time, the fact that Aika Sajo's servant was Merlin had been learned by all the surveillance guys at the scene.

"Teacher, the identities of Saber and Caster have been confirmed. Saber is King Arthur, and Caster is the legendary sage Merlin."

There was a sudden silence on the phonograph.

If one could say that his Servant Gilgamesh is the oldest king in the world, then he is indeed the pinnacle of Heroic Spirits in terms of ability.

But Merlin...

As the most prestigious servant in the caster class,

If I'm not mistaken, his Noble Phantasm is definitely something related to Avalon.

It seems that Merlin is also his biggest hidden danger.

……

"Rider, Sajo Aika's Servant has been found out. It's Merlin, the legendary flower magician from Great Britain!"

Waver was surprised by this answer.

Merlin is a legendary magician from the British Isles, active primarily in the legend of King Arthur.

His mission was to make King Arthur... and Artoria Pendragon king.

After that, although he served as King Arthur's assistant and became a court magician, he left behind many anecdotes.

However, because of his indecent relationships with women, he could not survive in the British Isles. According to legend, he finally went to the utopia of Avalon.

He felt regret for his past bad words and deeds...or rather, his crimes, and took the initiative to build a tower in Avalon and imprisoned himself inside.

He will not die, and as punishment he will only be able to view the world from his narrow tower.

Avalon is the tower at the "end of the world." It is located outside of time, which will not disappear until the end of human history.

Therefore, Merlin is still alive. Living people cannot become Heroic Spirits.

This simple fact also made Weber very confused.

But then he thought again, he should focus on Merlin, the servant of Aika Sajo, who is his enemy in the Holy Grail Battle.

He doesn't have that much time to understand other unimportant things.

But now,

Weber is located on the reinforced concrete of Fuyuki Bridge.

Just having my hands and feet fixed on it is hard enough.

Oh oh oh!

Weber now just wants to get back to the ground.

As long as he can get back to the ground, he is willing to do anything.

"Saber, why don't we just stop here?"

After a tense and exciting battle between the two sides, Aika Sajo suddenly stood up and made a proposal.

"Why, are you advising me to retreat?"

As a warrior, Saber certainly cannot retreat in the face of battle, and retreating before the battle is not Saber's habit.

"Of course that's not what I meant. This is just a brief truce I proposed to King Arthur as the king."

As Shajo Aige spoke, he took out a golden sword from behind him and stood in front of him.

"What is this?" Saber exclaimed in surprise.

But in Irisviel's opinion, it wasn't a big deal.

It's just a sword, what's so surprising about it?

Irisviel, who had lived in the castle for many years, certainly didn't know that the sword held by the European-famous girl in front of her, Satsuki Aige, was the sword of the King's Chosen that King Arthur had drawn.

However, Saber was the only one who felt surprised.

Sajo Aika laughed and scoffed at her surprise.

"Sorry, let me reintroduce myself. My name is Sajo Aika, and I'm the one who recently pulled out the sword from the stone. Perhaps you can call me King Arthur, or the Eternal King!"

Sajo Aika's words didn't surprise the magicians present. After all, anyone who followed the magic world knew about the two major events Sajo Aika had accomplished in Europe some time ago:

Obtain the Holy Sword and extract the Sword in the Stone.

But as the former King Arthur, Saber still stared at the new king in front of her with eyes wide open, feeling a little emotional.

It’s not that her position was replaced, but that someone else pulled out the sword in the stone and took her former position.

Although her own wish is to change her past history, she hopes that the person who draws the sword is not herself.

But Saber showed great respect for the girl in front of her.

But on one point, Saber must have misunderstood.

The reason why Aika Sajo pulled out the sword in the stone was simply because when she was fighting the Demon Pillar,

Blood is on my head,

Just pull it out.

As for saving Britain in the future?

Sorry, whoever wants to do this kind of shit can do it.

There's absolutely no way I could do that.

Back to the topic, after noticing the respectful look on Saber's face,

I also know that the emotional card I am playing has been successful.
