Shinji Matou At Your Service

Chapter 441: Sighisoara, where the storms gather (VII)

Views:

Mordred's fighting style can be described in four words: rough yet delicate.

Roughness is an external manifestation. Mordred's moves are rough and bold, which many male heroes cannot match. But just because of her rough fighting style, we can't think that Mordred is careless - she may not care about the details in her life, but in battle, she is definitely cautious in line with her strength.

As she advanced, she followed her instincts and chose routes that Archer's arrows could not reach, while analyzing various possibilities based on the current situation.

There were two enemies, and the way they jumped down from the bell tower didn't seem like a Servant, at least not a fighting Servant. If it was me or my father, a distance of several dozen meters would be enough to just jump. The fact that I hadn't sensed any Servant's aura until now also illustrates this point well.

But if someone said that both of them were human, Mordred would be the first one not to believe it.

Archer, the only servant, challenged both himself and his father. This joke was not funny at all. Anyone who would do this was either a madman or a fool. Archer, who calmly seized the opportunity and completed such a thrilling raid, was obviously not one of these two. Then, there was only one answer—there must be a servant among them.

Is it an assassin? Or a caster

Even if I'm injured, I'm still a Saber. Sending a non-fighting Servant to deal with me either means they're looking down on me or they really have some extraordinary qualities.

No matter how you think about it, it's the latter.

Assassin has "Breath Block", but if I had caster, I might have stepped into the opponent's trap.

Better be careful!

With this thought in mind, the rapid march like thunder turned into a regular march that could be used for both attack and defense.

"Saber." The voice of Lion Jie sounded in his ears.

"Be careful, master. The enemy is very likely near us." Mordred said as he put his Master down.

"I know."

"Then you still—"

A hand passed over Mordred's shoulder and pointed to the corner ahead. Then, Mordred saw a man, a man leaning against the wall, waving at the two of them.

"Hi~ hello."

Mordred's expression twitched at that moment. She felt that her intelligence was insulted. She thought there would be some traps waiting for her, but she didn't expect the other party to stand on the road and wait so carelessly, more chivalrous than a knight.

"It seems that you are our opponent—"

Although the enemy had his hands empty and had no intention of attacking, Shizijie did not dare to take it lightly.

The Master can see through the Servant's job, which is the authority granted by the Holy Grail - unless the Servant has special skills or treasures. The first time he saw the blue-haired man, Lion Jie confirmed his identity.

"—Black Assassin."

"What, Black Assassin?" The muscles on Mordred's face stopped twitching, and were replaced by a hint of confusion - he was an assassin, so who was the girl who called his father "Mom"

"Did I make a mistake?"

"What's wrong?" Shinji asked with interest. When little Jack was being chased by Mordred, he was still on the road and didn't know what happened before the sun set.

"Nothing." Mordred shook his head, dismissing any thoughts unrelated to the battle, and glanced around cautiously.

"You don't need to be so cautious. You are just worried about whether I have set a trap. I can tell you directly that I have not. Of course, I am not looking down on you just by standing here. No one will look down on the Saber of the best job, and I have also seen your previous battles - I am just fully confident in my own strength."

Having said that, Shinji put away his casual attitude and reached out to grasp the Ishtar spear.

"Be careful, Red Saber. If you are careless, you will die."

As the words fell, Shinji had already crossed the distance between the two men and thrust his spear forward.

This shot gave Mordred a very strong sense of déjà vu. Not long ago, she had faced the same shot - the postures of the Black Assassin and Altria charging with guns were very similar.

The surprise in his eyes did not affect his body's reaction. Mordred instinctively swung the king sword to block Shinji's thrust.

"How could you—?"

How could that be? Of course I learned it. With Chiron's special training and last night's sparring with Altria, Shinji's body naturally memorized this acceleration technique.

Shinji also memorized most of the subsequent concise and clear continuous shooting, and then performed it according to the instructions - the foundation laid by Scathach for him was very solid, and this simple technique, as long as he mastered the trick, he could use it with ease.

Mordred on the other side became more and more confused as the fight went on. Where did this guy learn his father's skills? Because of his doubts, Mordred just parried repeatedly without fighting back, which made Shinji very dissatisfied.

He also planned to use this battle to test the results of the special training in the past few days. Mordred's fighting style has many similarities with Achilles, but that is based on Mordred's full strength. If it were just like this, nothing would be visible.

"Hey, hey, don't be distracted. If you don't show your real skills, I will attack your Master."

Shinji said as he thrust his hands forward, and the black-gold spear flew out from close range, the spear drew an arc and hit Mordred's chest.

Amid the heavy impact, Mordred became unstable and staggered.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Shinji dodged Mordred and rushed towards Lion Jie who was ten meters away.

"Don't even think about it!!!" At this time, Mordred finally reacted. Now is not the time to think about these things - if you have anything to say or any questions, just talk after the battle.

A red light flashed, and the disappeared lightning reappeared. Mordred arrived first and swung his sword to cut Shinji's lower back.

Shinji was prepared. He turned around just before the long sword approached, lowered his left hand, and used the back of his hand to block the king's sword, which was also entangled in the red lightning.

The last time he fought against "King of Punishment", it was proven that "Vajra Left Arm" was not enough to block a high-level treasure. The reason why he was able to block it this time was because of the metal strip extending from his sleeve - it was a short blade that blended into the night, which was the hidden blade commonly used by killers.

The appearance of this hidden blade also made Mordred's strong sense of disobedience subside. This is what an assassin should be like. Is he really an assassin if he plays with a war gun

I also imitated my father's spear skills. That's something only I can do!

Mordred, filled with rage, once again unleashed magical power, and the sudden increase in strength directly knocked Shinji, who was blocking with one hand, away.

Surprisingly, Shinji, who almost knocked down a wall, was not angry at all. He looked at the hidden blade in his left hand with satisfaction and said to himself: "It's just a shallow scratch. The quality of the hidden blade made by Fiore is really good. Now I can use this thing with confidence."

When leaving the wall, Shinji had an extra hand axe in his hand. It also had a simple shape, the same non-reflective gray design, and the same concept of pursuing solidity.

Now, please call me Master Shen, a Creed-level assassin!
