15 Lend me your sword!

Chapter 15. Lend me your sword!

The golden spear transformed into a grimoire of strange characters, and Saber sensed something was wrong in that instant.

In their field of vision, Berserker opened his mouth as if reciting something, but neither she nor Assassin could hear anything.

Summon Jewel Beast!

A blue, multi-tailed creature appeared on the ground.

猫？

rabbit?

What kind of species it was, neither Saber nor Kenshin could know.

At least it wasn't an animal they had ever seen before.

But if we only describe her appearance, then she is "cute".

However, when paired with someone like Berserker, the two of them no longer felt that this was anything to be happy about.

"Chanting."

"Could it be?!"

Seeing Berserker open his mouth again, Saber was the first to react and then attempted to launch a surprise attack.

She finally understood that Berserker not only possessed swords and spears, but also the ability to use "magic".

However, there was one thing she found hard to understand: according to the class granted by the Holy Grail, the abilities that Servants could use should be limited.

As mentioned before, no matter what, Saber (the swordsman) will never stray from the "sword," and Lancer (the spearman) will always have the "spear."

It's almost impossible to have Saber use a gun or Lancer use a sword, as that would violate the class system.

But Berserker seems completely unaffected.

No one could provide an answer; she and Assassin could only try to stop the other side.

Although she didn't know how powerful Berserker's magic was, she didn't want to test it out.

Judging from the exchange just now, this is a formidable and troublesome opponent.

Are they stopping me?

Blocked by that small, strange creature, Kenshin dodged a tail whip and his heart sank.

This strange creature also possesses considerable power.

Although he was able to quickly shake off his opponent, that was enough time for Berserker to finish his incantation.

Therefore, we can only leave it to Saber to handle head-on.

"Bang!"

But in her field of vision, Saber was blasted away by a flash of white light the moment she got close.

"Hmm!"

"Clatter!"

"Pfft."

Saber slammed heavily onto the ground and slid along, finally coming to a stop inside an uninhabited building.

(The magician's incantation is so fast!)

(And it locked onto me in an instant.)

Clutching her abdomen and feeling the pain in her body, Saber used the holy sword to support herself as she stood up.

While she wasn't as agile as Assassin, her speed was still quite excellent, yet she still couldn't reach Berserker.

"The next one is coming!"

Intuition was triggered, and Saber immediately held the holy sword in front of her.

"Bang!!"

The deserted building collapsed with a roar, sending up thick smoke and dust as rubble and debris flew everywhere.

"."

Having repelled the attacking blue "cat-rabbit," Kenshin found it hard to imagine how he would defeat this opponent.

That's incredible.

This was the first time in his life that he had encountered such a formidable enemy.

There was absolutely no hope of winning.

With just the knife in his hand, he was no match for them.

"!"

But then he saw the strange creature disappear, and the grimoire in Berserker's hand turned into a giant golden axe.

Combined with the heavy armor he was wearing, he looked far too imposing.

(As expected, he's no ordinary person; he's even stronger than Master!)

Kenshin was increasingly surprised to learn that his opponent could switch weapons at any time during combat.

This was also a kind of cognitive cleansing for Kenshin, who was only a teenager.

Excellent equipment, outstanding individual martial arts skills, and an impeccable fighting style.

This was something he had never seen before.

"call!"

The giant axe was already swinging down, and he could only dodge it awkwardly.

There was no way to retaliate; given the mass of that giant golden axe, the scabbard and broken sword would likely be destroyed in an instant.

If it weren't for his agile movements, he probably would have been forced to retreat long ago.

(But even if you dodge like that, there's no way to avoid being hit. Sooner or later, you'll get hit.)

"Um?"

His mind raced, Kenshin searching for a way to reverse the situation.

Then, his eyes spotted a gleaming light amidst the ruins of buildings.

That was where Saber was before.

Berserker used magic to blast Saber away, but Saber's holy sword remained stuck in the ground.

剑.

Something seemed to connect in his mind, and Kenshin suddenly rushed towards that direction.

"call out!"

Berserker was in hot pursuit from behind.

"Whoosh!"

As Kenshin ran to the Holy Sword, he reached out to grab the hilt, just as Berserker swung his giant axe down in a vertical cleaving motion.

"Assassin!"

This scene was also witnessed by Saber, who had gotten up not far away.

She knew what Kenshin was planning to do: he wanted to use his holy sword as a weapon in battle.

(If it were him, a simple swing might actually give him a chance.)

The Sword of Victory Oath cannot be used by Kenshin, but it is more than enough to fight as an ordinary weapon.

"Clang!!"

Kenshin flipped his body, hovering in mid-air, and simultaneously drew the holy sword, blocking the attack from above.

The holy sword clashed with the giant axe, unleashing a tremendous impact. The sword's heart was forced to the ground, the powerful force suppressing it completely.

"Click-clack!"

The ground beneath his back was shattered.

"!"

Kenshin took a deep breath, leaned his body, and slipped away from the side. The giant axe slammed into the ground, creating a shockwave.

"Flying Sword Style!"

"Dragon Hammer Flash!!"

Taking advantage of the opportunity, Kenshin leaped up from the side, gripped the holy sword with both hands, and slashed down from above.

Berserker sensed his movement and retreated in front of him.

But Kenshin's speed was not slow.

"Click-clack!"

This time, there was no deflection or sparks; instead, it decisively cut through Berserker's thick heavy armor.

"It worked?"

Saber hesitated as she watched the Berserker being forced to retreat.

Although there was no blood splatter, there is no doubt that Assassin did manage to break through the defenses.

Berserker glanced down at the damaged armor on his chest, but a smile played on his lips hidden beneath his helmet.

These two unknown heroes.

They certainly possess extraordinary skills and techniques.

Being able to fight him like this for a while is already quite impressive.

"Bang!!"

Just then, an explosion was heard nearby, and a figure tumbled out in a disheveled state.

"Ptooey, ptooey, ptooey!"

"You got dust in your mouth!"

The blond figure rose from the ground and made strange movements.

"How many more traps do you have?!"

Still bound by the magic circle, Sakura Kyoko leaped down from the sky and shouted angrily.

This magician is so creepy!!

She had fallen into countless traps, yet she still couldn't catch the other person, and ended up getting herself all confused and embarrassed.

"This is.!"

"Lancer and Caster?"

The sudden appearance of the two people drew Saber and the others' attention.

Unexpectedly, while they were still engaged in fierce fighting, they were also drawn into the conflict on the other side.

"Huh? There's fighting here too? This is bad!"

Only then did Sakura Kyoko realize that there were three other rather strange "people" not far away.

She could clearly sense the aura of the other party as a Servant, and she really didn't want to face those guys at this moment.

The spearmen's hands are bound so they can't use their guns, what kind of situation is this!

But at that moment, golden light flashed...

An untimely burst of laughter came from the nearby streetlight.

"Hahahahaha!!"
