I am the protagonist

[A single chariot wouldn't be enough to allow him to face two Heroic Spirits so calmly; he must possess more than one Noble Phantasm.]

Rider definitely has one more crucial trump card, one that gives him enough confidence to face any Heroic Spirit.

At this moment, almost all Masters were thinking about only one question.

What exactly is Rider's trump card?

"Shirou..."

"No need to worry too much... Hmm? Someone's here."

Shirou's gaze was fixed on a street lamp, where a Heroic Spirit who looked completely golden stood.

The Heroic Spirit's gaze was fixed on Shirou, and Shirou's eyes were also locked on the Heroic Spirit.

"Oh~ I just came out for a walk, but I didn't expect to run into such an interesting guy."

His scarlet eyes seemed to have seen something interesting, and his gaze locked onto a young boy.

The eyes that once saw through illusions are now useless.

"!?"

Upon noticing the presence of an extra Servant, Saber immediately stepped in front of Shirou.

The situation is extremely chaotic. There were already three Heroic Spirits on the scene, and now another one has appeared.

The heroic spirit that appeared also caught the attention of others.

Lancer and Rider also focused their attention on the Heroic Spirits that had suddenly appeared in the warehouse.

"It seems that Yu is not the only one who has been attracted by the sound of Saber and Lancer's swords this time."

"Hmph, no need for such jokes. I have no interest in your games."

The golden spirit, with a light laugh, hopped and sat atop the streetlamp.

"If it weren't for one person who piqued my interest, I wouldn't want to waste any more time on you."

A lot of information is conveyed in simple words.

First, the golden-haired heroic spirit is also a king.

Secondly, this king was not very interested in the Holy Grail War, but rather in other things.

Third, this king is confident that he possesses the power to absolutely suppress all heroic spirits.

"Since you're also a king, how about you state your name first?"

"Think for yourself, you idiot."

"I have no obligation to introduce myself."

Suddenly, a low growl interrupted the golden-haired hero's words, and a hero shrouded in black mist suddenly appeared in everyone's safe zone.

Needless to say, almost everyone already knows the class of this Heroic Spirit.

Among all the Heroic Spirits, the easiest to distinguish are naturally the Assassin and the Berserker.

One is that they like to hide in the dark.

The other is the complete loss of rationality.

The one hiding its true nature is definitely Assassin.

Anyone with a malfunctioning brain is definitely a Berserker.

"Heroic spirits are really emerging from the shadows one after another. If Caster weren't a melee unit, would she be lurking around here right now?"

These words sounded like they were spoken quite unconsciously, but they actually made the Masters hidden in various places perk up.

Casters aren't melee units, so they can appear in front of people at will, but there's definitely a Caster among those watching this area.

In this current state of Heroic Spirits meeting, it's impossible for Caster not to notice.

The aura of the Heroic Spirit was far too obvious, especially after Saber and Lancer's battle.

"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu"

But the next second everyone's attention was on Berserker.

As everyone has noticed, Berserker is heading towards the golden Heroic Spirit this time.

Chapter 139 Berserker has become the easiest to deal with.

The golden-haired Heroic Spirit, not angry at this, watched with great interest.

"Although I'm just here for a casual stroll and don't want to play games with a mad dog, if you insist, I might as well play along."

Two golden halos appeared behind the golden spirit, and within the halos appeared completely different kinds of weapons: a spear and a longsword.

Golden magic was added to the weapon.

It then shot towards Berserker like an arrow.

"boom!"

The heroic spirits who witnessed this scene all wore expressions of undisguised astonishment.

"Is this guy really Berserker?"

"If this is a state of irrationality, then Berserker must have been an extraordinary figure before his death."

Even in a state of irrationality, he could still skillfully use the combat techniques in front of him, which was undoubtedly a sign that he had completely imprinted his martial arts skills into his body.

Perhaps it is because the martial arts were imprinted on his body before his death that this experience became one of the skills of the Heroic Spirit.

After all, most of the skills of heroic spirits are closely related to their experiences in life.

This only made Saber's nerves even more tense.

"I see."

Shirou's focus is different from that of the other Servants; his gaze is always fixed on the golden Servant.

[That fighting style is indeed very similar to Archer's. Did Archer copy this Servant's fighting style to create that style?]

Is it because he used countless swords as arrows that he was identified as Archer?

[Moreover, the weapons that were launched were all original artifacts without exception. Even the spear that Berserker had deflected didn't suffer the slightest damage. As original artifacts, they were still Noble Phantasms of a considerable rank.]

If this is the lowest-level weapon, then that Heroic Spirit's strength must surpass that of all other Heroic Spirits.

That golden halo wasn't created by magic; that was the true nature of the Noble Phantasm, while the swords were merely collectibles within it.

It's impossible to determine exactly how many weapons are hidden inside that space, but what is certain is that it contains only magical artifacts, and countless of them.

It seems the only enemy in this Holy Grail War has been discovered.

Shirou's gaze shifted from casual to serious.

At the same time, the golden-haired heroic spirit's gaze also turned to him, and it too became more serious than before.

Their gazes met at a single point, and at that moment, both Shirou and the golden Heroic Spirit understood one thing.

A battle between them is inevitable.

[What an interesting fellow; this trip has certainly been worthwhile.]

That look in his eyes... it's so familiar, it's exactly the same look I had when I first met that guy.

The golden-haired hero turned his head and continued to focus his gaze on the mad dog, his expression gradually becoming somewhat amused.

"For a mad dog, it does have some pretty good martial arts skills."

"So, just how far can this martial art sustain you? Let me see."

Dozens of golden halos appeared, and within each halo, a weapon slowly emerged.

The speed was exactly the same as before.

But as if to play a game, all the weapons were not launched immediately, but were launched at different times.

Berserker instinctively swung his longsword, deflecting the flying battle axe and catching spears fired from other angles.

He grabbed the longsword and spear to block the other weapons.

After repelling several waves of attacks, Berserker put down his spear and replaced it with the giant axe on the ground.

In just a moment, all the weapons released by the golden hero were blocked.

But Shirou shook his head slightly when he saw this.

"Although it has the instinct to fight, it is still just a mad dog."

"Berserker's combat instinct is quite strong, but any Heroic Spirit's battle requires mana, and the stronger the combat ability, the greater the mana consumption."

"If the Master who chooses the Berserker is not good enough to control the Berserker well, then the only way to compensate for the lack of ability in the game is to choose the Berserker."

"Shirou, what do you think is the essence of Berserker's Master?"

"the latter."

Shirou knew almost without thinking that Berserker's Masters chose Berserker to compensate for their own lack of ability.

“A wise Master would not allow Berserker to have four Servants existing at the same time.”

“A Master who is not smart will naturally be much less capable as a Master. Such a Master is not very strong and simply cannot maintain the Berserker’s unbridled fighting.”

"There's another point. Berserker's ability to use other Heroic Spirits' Noble Phantasms is also due to some of his own skills, but that idiot still hasn't noticed that the magical energy remaining on the weapon he controls is increasing each time."

"Even so, that fool still fought based on his instincts, needlessly consuming even more magic power."

"If this continues, Berserker's Master will be completely drained of mana in less than three minutes."

You could say that the Berserker is a sharp blade, but it's just as effective against enemies as it is against oneself.

If used well, it can quickly suppress the opponent and determine the winner in a short time.

However, if used improperly, the Master will be dragged down to death by the Berserker.

Shirou didn't hold back his voice when he said these words, so all the observing Servants and Masters heard him at that moment.

Now, Masters with some ideas started to have some thoughts.

Berserker's abilities are indeed terrifying; his attributes, even after sacrificing his rationality, are even higher than Saber's. However, the problem is that Berserker has absolutely no rationality, which means there are ways to counter him!

Berserker's Master is also Berserker's greatest weakness!

This answer lingered in the minds of all Masters, and they firmly remembered it.

The most prominent Servant now that Assassin has fallen is Saber.

However, Saber and Lancer fought back and forth, and if it weren't for Saber's Master providing support from behind, it would be uncertain who would have won.

Since Rider dares to face both Saber and Lancer at the same time, his hidden trump cards should not be underestimated. Rider is the easiest Servant to deal with right now, especially since we don't know his trump cards.

The golden Heroic Spirit is undoubtedly this generation's Archer.

His strength is beyond doubt. When he killed Assassin before, we didn't even know what his Noble Phantasm was, but now all the Masters have figured it out.

Archer is definitely a Heroic Spirit who hides his true strength, just like Rider.

In other words, Archer and Rider are definitely the easiest to deal with right now, followed by Saber and Lancer. However, since we already know Saber and Lancer's real names and have seen their strength, we don't need to worry about them too much for the time being.

Aside from Caster, who is difficult to find due to his hidden presence, Berserker, who has a clear weakness to his Master, is the easiest to deal with now.

Chapter 140 The War Temporarily Ended

"He really is just a mad dog."

The golden-haired hero lost interest after playing for a while. Although the mad dog was skilled in martial arts, its master was too weak, which made him lose interest in playing around.

With a snap of his fingers, all the swords and treasures scattered on the ground turned into golden light and disappeared.

"I was just kidding you, don't get too cocky, you mad dog."

"Well, you commoners can play around by yourselves. I'm quite curious to see which of you will end up standing before me."

"Ah ah ah ah ah!"

With a wild, beast-like roar, it leaped high into the air.

"when!"

The golden-haired hero looked indifferently at the mad dog that had interrupted him.

"How self-righteous."
