Kurumi Tokisaki's Planar Journey - Chapter 455
Just like in the original work, only Saber responded to Lancer.
Of course, Kyouka didn’t know how many supernatural beings and monsters were secretly lurking. Diarmuid, the chief hero of the Irish Fianna Knights, known for his “radiant appearance,” did live up to his title.
If it were an ordinary human woman, she might have been captivated by him in an instant, right?
Perhaps Diarmuid’s “tear-shaped birthmark” wasn’t as attention-grabbing in his own time. But after his death, some of his deeds were recorded in history, and people always enjoyed gossiping about some interesting things that happened to him.
After becoming a Heroic Spirit, his enchanting “curse” that bewitches women saw a significant increase.
Saber and Lancer were both part of the Three Knight Classes, and both embodied the spirit of chivalry.
After some verbal sparring, magical energy surged around Saber. Her black suit transformed into armor, giving her an exceptionally heroic appearance.
Gripping the Sword of Victory, the effects of the Wind King’s barrier made it nearly indistinguishable from transparency.
After a moment of thought, Kyouka pulled out her favorite creation forged by a dwarf master from her spatial backpack.
It was a dagger that could only be felt by tightly grasping the hilt. Demonstrating a few moves through the air, the dagger danced between her fingers.
Easily cutting through the air, the blade would leave a mark on Kyouka’s hand if it touched. The distant clash of gold and iron caught Kyouka’s attention, and Sakura widened her eyes, watching this epic duel unfold.
Kyouka stored the dagger back in her backpack and turned her attention to the duel between Saber and Lancer.
The two were evenly matched!
Sparks continuously erupted on their Noble Phantasms! Diarmuid had to be cautious of the longsword Saber concealed, while Saber had to be attentive to his versatile twin spears!
It had to be said that both of them were extremely skilled, and the fighting effects were outstanding. It was the kind of scene where you wouldn’t need any special effects even if you were making a movie.
In Kyouka’s eyes, even without activating the ‘Eye of Disruption,’ she could easily judge the direction of their attacks.
When did her combat intuition become this terrifying?
Kyouka didn’t dwell on it much. The impact from the golden spiritual sea was significant, and a slight boost to her combat intuition was nothing.
“Ah~”
Kyouka let out a small yawn, legs stretched out, hands pushed back, and the black skirt concealed the concealed areas.
The battle was indeed spectacular, and perhaps she could ask Diarmuid about his spear techniques after the fight?
Nothing special, Kyouka just remembered the spear on the ‘Nightmare,’ and regarding that, she would only rely on strength to overpower others. With speed and strength, even in a messy fight, she could strike down the enemy with a single blow!
“Chirp! ——”
“Tatatata~”
Saber staggered back two steps, a puzzled expression on her handsome face.
One hand covered her side, which was covered in blood! A considerable amount of blood also dripped onto the ground from the armor, raising tiny invisible dust particles.
However, there was no visible damage to the thick armor.
“Saber, you underestimated your opponent!”
Perhaps due to the knight’s spirit, Lancer did not pursue his advantage. Kyouka was a bit speechless; if she summoned such a Servant, she would probably feel nauseous too.
No way, the difference in their personalities was too great, just like Emiya Kiritsugu and Saber.
These people entering the main divine space probably only Emiya Kiritsugu and Tokiomi Tohsaka could survive.
Einsbern healed Saber’s injuries, but Saber believed she had seen through Lancer’s Noble Phantasm!
“How did this girl become a king?” Einsbern appeared behind Kyouka at some point, making Sakura jump!
“This IQ is really distressing!” Kyouka rolled her eyes, “Saber is not a complete Saber, okay? If Avalon were placed inside her, dealing with Lancer wouldn’t be a problem.”
“Hehe, Master, don’t forget, your clothes are also made of magic power~ In case Lancer stabs you, then there will be a burst of clothes-ripping special effects…”
“Ah ah ah! Master, I was wrong! Don’t pinch me!”
Seeing Einsbern scream loudly, Kyouka temporarily spared her this time by isolating the magic.
“What about the Nightmare?”
Einsbern, holding her reddish face, said with grievance, “It’s up in the sky.”
Seeing her master with a contemplative look, Einsbern smirked, “Master, are you really going to ask Lancer for advice on spear techniques?”
“Why not? I don’t know spear techniques at all.”
“No no no.” Einsbern shook her small head like a tambourine, “I’m just afraid you’ll bully him!”
“Hmm?!” Kyouka squinted her eyes, “Are you enchanted by the ‘radiant appearance’?”
Einsbern’s hair exploded, “How is that possible! With that tiny amount of magic power, it’s not even enough to get stuck in my teeth!”
“Then how about this: he’ll probably bully me in spear techniques!”
Seeing Sakura nodding beside her, Einsbern looked up at the ‘Nightmare.’
In the area where the aggressive black bone wings were, there was a cold lance.
But compared to the ‘Nightmare,’ that lance appeared relatively slender, not to mention Kyouka herself!
Einsbern had already constructed a scene in her mind. Before that Lancer guy could reach her master, she would smack him away with the lance!
Although it’s said that the weapon is stronger with greater length, the lance of the standard ‘Nightmare’…
Probably only the master could come up with such a method, right?
For a moment, Einsbern’s eyes looking at her master became filled with awe.
In the field, the two quickly exchanged a few more moves and swiftly retreated.
Saber, after removing her armor, became as light as a swallow, taking her speed to a new level!
However, relatively speaking, Saber indirectly gave up defense, substituting attack for defense!
The Sword of Victory, wrapped in the Wind King’s barrier, was exceptionally sharp!
In the ongoing battle with Lancer, she gained the upper hand for the first time!
This brought some confidence to Saber, who continuously calculated the trajectory of the battle in her mind, hoping to land a fatal blow in the upcoming attack…
“Dang~”
Lancer’s steps landed on the crumbling ground, his upper body unstable, revealing a vulnerability!
Saber squinted her eyes; her combat intuition made her feel that this was a rare opportunity.
In an instant, her figure turned into an arrow, shooting upwards!
Unexpectedly, Lancer smiled, stepped forcefully in the crumbling pit, stones scattered, and the chief hero of the Fianna Knights adjusted his center of gravity in an instant. He even picked up the yellow short spear that he had discarded from the crumbling stones!
At this moment, Saber had already rushed halfway. The tremendous inertia prevented her from making a defensive move. Otherwise, she would be the one at a disadvantage!
In the last moment! Using her exquisite skills, Saber forcibly twisted her body and launched a powerful attack. Lancer had to dodge, changing the stabbing position!
The two separated.
Lancer smiled indifferently, a trace of blood appearing on his handsome face.
“At a time like this, you still refuse to hand victory to me, Saber.”
“Humph! Lancer, the battle has just begun.”
“Is that so?” Lancer lifted both spears, “I’ll accompany you to the end.”
“Einsbern, heal me!”
