Kurumi Tokisaki's Planar Journey - Chapter 458
“Regarding the one who launched a surprise attack, how do you think we should deal with them, Saber?”
The King of Heroes watched the scene with great interest, standing on the lamppost, able to clearly see the insect hiding in the shadows on the opposite side!
If the opponent hadn’t fired a shot, he probably wouldn’t have noticed.
“How interesting.”
Gilgamesh crossed his arms, a smile on his lips, but the ‘King’s Treasure’ did not close. A sea of golden ripples swirled within it, creating endless pressure!
Saber gripped the sword with one hand, but her gaze occasionally flickered towards Irisviel.
“Hey~”
Just as Berserker spoke, Saber focused in an instant!
Her figure turned elusive, “Distracting oneself while talking to others is not the proper etiquette for a high-ranking official.”
“Wouldn’t you agree?”
Saber raised her sword upward, parrying Berserker’s attack!
“Hehe~” Berserker continued to swing the dagger, the transparent weapon causing some hindrance to Saber.
Sparks continuously flew in the air, but Saber kept retreating!
Strictly speaking, the Sword of Victory, the sword of oath, was not a one-handed sword. It required both hands to exert its full power.
But now, with Saber’s left hand tendon injured and her thumb in pain, she couldn’t help but twitch involuntarily!
With the dual blessing of divine power seeds and proficiency in combat, Berserker used martial arts to firmly suppress the half-injured Saber!
The speed in her hand became faster and faster, and each dagger strike made Saber struggle to cope!
Finally! Berserker pressed the sword down! The black skirt grazed Saber’s blue skirt! The masterpiece of the dwarf master quickly thrust towards the opponent’s temple!
“Bang!——”
“Drip, drip, drip~”
The tremendous force caused Berserker to retreat three steps in succession, the slender jade hand holding the dagger trembling slightly.
“Ah, this is what it is? Heroic rescue?”
Berserker squinted her eyes, stopping the previous frenzied attack.
Lancer, standing in front of the panting Saber, pointed the yellow short spear at Berserker.
“Saber needs a fair fight! Not like this, being suppressed by someone like you…”
“And what do you want to express?”
“But I haven’t used my left hand~”
Interrupted by Berserker, Lancer stuttered, recalling the scenes of their previous confrontation. It seemed that what the witch said was true.
“And I’m not Assassin, not skilled in using a dagger.”
Berserker raised the transparent dagger in her hand. Although it was transparent, no one in the field could sense its general appearance.
“Not Assassin, yet possessing such a weapon. The witch is truly cunning!”
Berserker blinked her eyes, sheathed the dagger, and put it into the spatial backpack. “Where is your logic? What do you think Assassin is? A lurker? An assassin?”
Shaking her head, Berserker said, “In my ‘homeland,’ an assassin who fails a single strike should flee a thousand miles. That’s the most basic skill.”
“Facing Saber like me, you might be laughed at by a true master assassin.” Berserker chuckled, “A true assassin only uses existing resources and lurks for a long time before launching a fatal strike!”
“If a master assassin were here, Saber wouldn’t even have the chance to change into armor.”
As the night wind rose, with Berserker’s tone, Saber’s back felt slightly cold. Should she be grateful now? Grateful that the beautiful woman in front of her was not a true master assassin?
“Hahaha~” Gilgamesh laughed nervously twice, successfully diverting everyone’s attention to him.
“Woman, you speak the truth. According to your logic, the Assassin I shot last night was just a clown.”
“Should I thank you for your appreciation?”
“What do you think, witch?”
Berserker lifted the hem of her skirt and performed a standard ladylike gesture.
“Very good, you satisfy me!”
Berserker lowered her small head, and her long hair covered her face in the shadows, a mocking smile on her lips.
Even if Gilgamesh discovered the ‘charm,’ what could he do? Wasn’t he gradually sinking into it now?
The means given by the main god were truly insurmountable!
“So, are you going to continue protecting Saber?” Berserker grinned, “Her Master just wanted to kill me earlier~”
“Master? Saber’s Master is clearly…”
“Is that so?”
“Exactly!” Conqueror King scratched his head, looked towards Emiya Kiritsugu’s direction, and pulled Weber up, “This person is even more cunning than your teacher!”
“So, Saber…”
Looking at the legendary King of Britain, who had a slightly messy golden hair and a handsome face, the Conqueror King couldn’t help shaking his head. Even Gilgamesh had a touch of disdain.
Saber and Irisviel seemed to have become the targets of public criticism in an instant!
“Don’t worry, Saber. I’ve locked onto your Master. Let me think, black hair, thin man with a firearm, and it seems there’s also a short-haired woman with him.”
“Um…” Berserker dragged her tone, “What did you call the white-haired woman just now? Madam? Can I understand her as your Master’s wife?”
Berserker looked at Irisviel, shaking her head, “I have to say, you don’t seem to match the black-haired woman with Saber’s Master.”
“This appearance~” Berserker rubbed her chin, “Your husband seems to be cheating.”
Emiya Kiritsugu was about to retort when Berserker turned the gun towards Saber!
“Saber, is it the legendary King of Britain, Arthur? The fool who single-handedly ruined her country?”
“You!” Saber was angry, her blood boiling, and even her fair face blushing.
“Don’t be angry. I’m not talking about Britain at all.” Berserker looked past Saber towards Emiya Kiritsugu, “I just feel that you, the Master and Servant, are so perfect together.”
“Witch, what do you mean!”
“Ahaha, Saber, right now you look like an angry little lion~”
With that, Berserker even made a ‘super fierce’ expression with her small hand near her face.
“Gwenivere has run away with Lancelot, right? I mean…”
Berserker flashed to another place, her hair slightly white, a phenomenon that no one noticed.
“Tsk, tsk, tsk~” Berserker looked at where she had stood before, and the sword qi easily cracked the cement ground, creating a black trench.
Berserker turned her head to look at Saber, the graceful swordswoman holding a sword making Berserker feel a bit nostalgic.
As if she saw the black-haired girl who protected her in front of her again.
Muttering to herself, “Red dyeing the sunset?”
The Conqueror King placed one hand on Weber’s shoulder, and the immense strength almost made this small frame collapse!
“Both are people with stories.”
Weber grinned, trying to look up, and he really wanted to shout to his Servant!
‘You are not suitable for making such sighs at all!’
Of course, after comparing the two people’s body sizes, Weber silently swallowed these words back.
The King of Heroes heard Iskandar’s sigh, and his eyes swept back and forth between Berserker and Saber.
“It’s getting more and more interesting.”
At this moment, Saber was agitated, both in terms of her nation and her personal affairs, all laid bare by the person in front of her without any reservation!
“Witch! Does your character truly live up to your title!”
