"Wait, what did you say?"
Sakura's words made Shinji shudder.
"I said I can use that gun to summon the Mastersmith, isn't that okay?"
"Okay, why not! A Noble Phantasm is the sublimation of life, the crystallization of faith, and it itself represents a kind of fate. There is nothing more deeply connected to the master than this. Ahahaha, Sakura, you are so smart."
Shinji excitedly held his sister's shoulders and laughed. He had been looking for the master's relics and thinking about how to summon him. Now he was awakened by his sister's words. How could he not be happy
"However, it is a Noble Phantasm after all, bound to the Servant himself. How to 'borrow' it from him is a problem... Should I go to him directly? No, that's not appropriate. He may not agree, and I don't want to bow to him. Then I will rob him, but how?"
Shinji pinched his chin hard, and his brain was fully open. All the anecdotes and cases he had seen from childhood to adulthood, from past lives to this life, emerged one by one.
Suddenly, a flash of light flashed in his sea of consciousness, and a picture slowly emerged—a spearman in blue tights pierced the heart of a red-haired boy with a gun.
"Got it! There's another trick."
Shinji raised his head, his eyes sharp, no less sharp than Cu Chulainn's spear.
"Ms. R, do you mind playing a cameo as a spearman?"
Medusa, wearing a lavender home dress, tilted her head in confusion, unexpectedly looking cute. Shinji's previous conversation with Sakura was incoherent, and the strategy he was thinking about was all in his head. Medusa had no idea what this boy, who had a deep connection with him, was thinking about.
"Here."
Shinji still did not explain, and materialized the "Snake Hunting Scythe" and handed it to Medusa.
"Will you use this?"
Medusa gripped the sickle with both hands, tried a few stances, and nodded.
"Very good." Shinji clenched his fist.
Nasu stewed mushroom did not lie to me, Sister R really has the aptitude of a spearman.
In Type-Moon's works, Medusa has appeared in four classes, Rider and Langer. Lancer appears in two different states, the young Rider and the adult LR. Although they appear under special circumstances, their weapons are all "Snake Hunting Scythe", so Shinji asked this question.
"From now on, it's yours."
"Belong to me?" Medusa stared at the weapon that had killed her and was stunned for a while.
"Wait, wait a moment!" Medea pointed at the sickle blade, "Isn't this a treasure?"
"Yes, this is the Noble Phantasm." Shinji shook his head.
"How can you possess a Noble Phantasm? Aren't you a human?"
"I am a human, no doubt about it, but I am a little bit special. As for why I have a Noble Phantasm, as I just said, modern magicians are very good at using unexpected means."
"It's really unexpected. You always give me a scare."
It was a shock, not a surprise. In such a short period of time, Medea had already refreshed her cognition several times.
"But this is the Servant's ultimate trump card, and you actually gave it to me just like that..."
"Because this is a Noble Phantasm related to Sister R, and someone you know has also used it."
"Someone I know? Could it be Hercules?"
Every servant is proficient in the historical and mythological knowledge bestowed by the Holy Grail. After seeing the shape of the sickle blade and combining it with Shinji's hint, Medea quickly found the answer.
"good."
"I see, it's the Anti-Snake Noble Phantasm. But Shinji, this is the nemesis of that woman, why did you give it away? Who knows if she is just pretending to be so submissive now."
"I am not you, I will not betray you."
Medusa did not tolerate Medea's provocation and responded coldly.
"What did you say, monster?" Medea was immediately furious.
"You two—" Sakura quickly inserted herself between the two, exercising her Master's functions,—"both of you broke the rules. You are not allowed to eat and you are required to do housework for a day."
Medea groaned in dissatisfaction and cursed angrily: "She said it first!"
"It was you who provoked me first." Medusa was not to be outdone.
"Wow, it sounds like kids quarreling." Kirie complained.
"Yeah, he's obviously a famous person in history." Fujino agreed.
"!" Both Medusa and Medea were shocked at the same time. The former lowered her head in embarrassment, while the latter put on her hood again.
"Alright, alright, stop talking. I have something important to do and I need your cooperation." Shinji stepped in to smooth things over. "R-sister, I didn't give you the 'Snake Hunting Scythe' for free. I need you to use it as bait."
"Bait?" Medusa subconsciously stroked the wooden handle of the "Snake Hunting Scythe". "Is the target this newly appeared Servant or his Master?"
"Servant, just a Servant. Your mission is just to lure him out, you don't need to do anything else. Now the participants are not all here, it's not time for a life-and-death battle. Sister C is responsible for monitoring and providing support to Sister R. The specific plan is as follows—"
...
It was nine o'clock in the evening, and Bazette and Cu Chulainn had just had a hearty meal at a restaurant on the Xindu Commercial Street.
This couple from Ireland were really bold. After signing the contract, they first fought, and then found a place to eat after the fight. They didn't look like they were there to participate in a war at all.
Of course, this was just based on their attitudes. In reality, they were still on high alert. After all, they were both experienced warriors, and their perception of danger was already ingrained in their instincts.
As soon as Medusa revealed a trace of the aura of a servant, the two men's bodies immediately tensed up. Considering that this was a downtown area, the two did not attack immediately, but quietly followed behind.
Although there was no verbal communication, it was not difficult to see from the fighting spirit in their eyes that they wanted to take the opportunity to eliminate the enemy. I'm afraid they would take action immediately when they get to a place with few people.
This was indeed the case. As soon as Medusa walked into a nearby construction site, Cu Chulainn could not wait to draw his gun and kill Medusa.
Medusa did not fight with him. She quickly jumped onto the roof of a nearby building and fled into the distance.
Cu Chulainn made a dissatisfied "tsk" sound, bent his legs but did not jump, instead he turned his head to look at his Master.
"What should I do? Chase?"
"Chase!" Bazett answered without hesitation.
"Aren't you afraid it's a trap?" asked Cuchulain.
"Don't be afraid. I have the ability to protect myself, and I believe in your strength." Bazette's heroic face was full of trust in his partner.
Cu Chulainn laughed loudly: "That's right, you are worthy of being my Master! You are beautiful, stubborn, courageous, and strong. I really like you more and more. Then I will go first, don't make me wait too long, Master!"
"I won't keep you waiting long."
The master and servant exchanged glances again and disappeared into the night at the same time.
