Diarmuid is a dual-gun user. If he loses the red rose, he still has the yellow rose. Moreover, the yellow rose, which is less than one meter long, is much faster than the red rose.
At this moment, Scathach, who had knocked down the red rose, was already at the end of her strength, and it was too late to stop Diarmuid's fatal attack with the yellow rose.
There was no declaration of victory, nor any inspiring shouts. Diarmuid poured all his strength into his left hand, into the yellow rose.
This shot was the fastest shot he had fired since he was summoned to the modern era, and he firmly believed that this shot could bring him victory.
Diarmuid's vision was broken into frames like a movie film because of the speed that exceeded his limit.
Closer and closer.
With each passing frame, his yellow rose was closer to his opponent's heart.
With only the target in his eyes, Diarmuid did not see that Scathach had a similar smile on her lips, nor did he see that Scathach released her left hand holding the gun the moment the red rose slipped out of her hand, nor did he see the spirit particles surrounding this left hand that were condensing into a solid entity.
Just when the yellow rose was less than ten centimeters away from Scathach's heart, Diarmuid suddenly felt a pain in his chest.
The pain was so severe that Diarmuid's handsome face was distorted, his originally firm steps were deformed, and the attack he was determined to achieve was interrupted.
He looked down with some doubt and sadness, and saw that Scathach was holding a red gun in her left hand and piercing her heart, while her right hand was holding an identical magic gun.
"I forgot to tell you that I am also a dual-gun user." Scathach, the queen of the demon world, standing at the top of all gun users, said lightly.
"Really..."
The doubt on Diarmuid's face disappeared, and the gloom turned into calm again. His left hand softened and the yellow rose slipped from his hand.
"I lost, and I lost sincerely. The queen of the demonic realm is indeed worthy of her reputation."
"You too, 'Radiant Visage'; Diarmuid, it was a great duel, and I am glad I fought you."
Scathach let go of her weapon and reached out to support Diarmuid, who was fatally injured and could hardly stand.
"They must be jealous to receive such praise from you."
The "they" that Diarmuid mentioned were none other than his companions, his comrades in the Knights of Fianna.
"By the way, there is one thing I can't figure out, I hope you can give me an answer."
"you say."
"Why would you do this? Let my Master give me such an order, let me fight as a knight, to preserve my honor... You... and your Master are not knights, so you don't need to do this, and you can win in a simpler way? Why?"
The blood coughed out of Diarmuid's mouth wet Scathach's arm. Not only did Scathach not mind, she also used her remaining magic power to perform magic to relieve Diarmuid's pain.
"The answer is, I've already said it before. I like first-rate fighters, and I don't want an outstanding fighter like you to end up in such a tragic way."
"What a tragic ending..." Diarmuid took a breath, "Have you seen my future?"
Scathach hummed softly: "That's an ending that even I can't bear to watch. Besides, it was me who healed Saber's arm and broke the agreement between you and Saber, so I decided to fight you on Saber's behalf."
"Your Master..."
"He planned all this. I am only responsible for fighting you and guaranteeing victory with the honor of a warrior."
Scathach turned her head and looked at her Master with red eyes that were brighter than the Morning Star, as if to say - I have fulfilled my promise.
Shinji narrowed his eyes and smiled in response.
Yes, guaranteeing victory in the name of a warrior is what Shinji wants. Only after agreeing to this, Shinji dares to implement this plan. If Scathach doesn't agree, then even if Lancer's fate is ten times worse, he won't implement this plan. Promising in the name of a warrior means that Scathach will go all out, and Shinji is full of confidence in such a Scathach.
What if it fails
Impossible.
Shinji knows that there is a skill called "Mind's Eye", which can also be obtained by using "Wisdom of the Magic Realm" and is permanent;
Shinji knows that there is a skill called "Re-Stance", which can be obtained by using "Wisdom of the Magic Realm" and is instant;
not enough
Shinji also knows another usage of "GáeBolgAlternative";
Shinji also knows that Diarmuid's luck is only E, while Scathach's luck is D.
If she could lose this, there's no way Scathach is still alive now.
"So that's how it is."
This scene fell into Diarmuid's eyes, eliciting a bloodshot sigh.
"What a good Master. I really envy you."
"Do you regret it?" Scathach carried Diarmuid and walked towards the two masters.
"How could that be? Although your Master is excellent, I do not regret swearing allegiance to Lord Kenneth."
After hearing what Diarmuid said, Shinji released the "God's Spear and Bow Sword" from Kenneth's neck and patted the latter's shoulder hard.
"Did you hear that, Director Ken?"
"Lancer... .."
Looking at Diarmuid, who was covered in wounds and never regretted his actions until his death, the paranoid and proud Kayneth seemed to be really touched. He lowered his head, not daring to look at his servant, and murmured.
"Sorry... I..."
"No need to apologize, Master Kayneth."
Diarmuid left Scathach's shoulder and staggered to his knees at Kayneth's feet.
"You are my lord, and I am your knight."
Diarmuid's body has begun to fade, more and more spirit particles are being drawn out of his body, and Lancer's container has reached its limit.
"Lord Kenneth, please forgive me for not being able to follow you any longer. I hope you will recover soon and I hope you and Lady Sora will be happy."
"Lancer... ... "
Diarmuid's heartfelt blessing made Kenneth's eyes slightly red. He stretched out his hand, wanting to touch his Servant, but found that the spirit particles flowed through his fingers, and he could no longer touch this loyal knight.
Lancer raised his head and looked at Scathach and Shinji who were standing side by side with pleading eyes.
"Master Assassin, and Her Majesty the Queen, this is the last request of a knight. I hope you can spare Lord Kenneth and Lady Sora's life."
"As long as they are willing to agree to my request." Shinji pounded his chest in accordance with knight etiquette and promised solemnly.
"Thank you very much."
Diarmuid's body had faded to the point where it was almost invisible. He took one last look at his Master and said his final farewell.
"Knight Diarmuid Odinah has left the battlefield. Farewell, my lord."
The same expression as when they first met completely disappeared, and the last spirit particle flashed and floated towards the horizon with the cold wind.
There is a faint light on the horizon, the night is about to end and dawn will soon come.
The blue spirit particle finally merged into the faint light in the sky, leaving behind a touch of glass color before dawn.
"Goodbye, Diarmuid Odinah. I hope you are satisfied with this ending."
Shinji lowered his head, and Scathach looked up and looked into the distance, bidding farewell to this noble knight in this way.
PS: It will be officially on the shelves at 12 noon tomorrow, with three updates, because I promised to make up for it when the first leader of this book is put on the shelves.
The rules for adding more are as follows:
1. Additional chapters will be added when the average subscription reaches 500. For every additional 100 subscriptions, one additional chapter will be added. There is no upper limit.
Second, rewards will add more chapters. If the total amount of rewards from all book friends reaches one alliance leader, one more chapter will be added.
Third, if the saved manuscripts are used up, just keep them in debt. If you have the guts, make the young master use up all the saved manuscripts.
4. The update rules are valid for a long time.
5. Starting from Saturday, the update will resume as normal, with two updates a day, and a minimum of 2000 per update. If there is an irresistible reason, I will ask for leave in advance, but the total number of days I take leave in a year is only in the single digit, and the only time I will definitely take leave is during the Chinese New Year.
