In the afternoon, after the club activities are over.

"That's...Mizuki-senpai and Matou-senpai." Sakura Tohsaka, who was about to leave, looked at the two people standing together not far away and said hesitantly.

"Sakura, that person is a master." The void flickered, and Rider's figure appeared, looking at the two people not far away and reminding them softly.

"Master? Who?" Tohsaka Sakura turned around and looked at Rider with a puzzled expression.

"That man." Rider said, "Beside him, there is a servant hidden."

Tohsaka Sakura turned around and looked at Matou Shinji and Mizu Ayako.

However, at this moment, something unexpected happened. A figure covered in a dark robe suddenly appeared behind Mizu Ayako, and slashed the opponent's neck with a knife, knocking him unconscious.

"thump."

Mizu Ayako's body, which lost conscious control, immediately fell to the ground.

"How is that possible!?" Tohsaka Sakura whispered in disbelief as she took all this into consideration.

"Sakura, if you want to go with that girl, you'd better do it now. It seems that the man is planning to let his servant devour her soul." At this time, Rider's voice sounded in Sakura Tohsaka's ears again. .

"Devouring souls?" Tohsaka Sakura said in shock.

"We Servants need to consume magic power to stay in the world to carry out activities and fights. Under normal circumstances, these magic powers are provided by the magician who is the master through the connection of the contract. However, there are some exceptions. At that time, we Servants You can also replenish the consumption of magic power by sucking the life energy and souls of ordinary people." Rider explained.

"What will happen to those whose souls are devoured?" Tohsaka Sakura asked with concern.

Although she has learned magic and became a magician, and is familiar with certain concepts and terms, she still lacks knowledge about servants other than conventional knowledge. In addition, Ito Shigeya has not been too careful. He told her detailed information about the Servant, so she had only a partial understanding of the Servant's situation.

"If it's mild, it'll just be like staying up all night. You can recover as long as you take a nap. If it's severe, your soul will be lost. The victim will die." Rider replied.

"Ah! Sister Medusa, please help me save Senpai Meizu." Tohsaka Sakura said anxiously.

"good."

The rider agreed, and his body immediately flew out of the corner, swinging his arms at the same time. He threw the chain sword in his hand towards the hooded girl who was leaning over and biting the neck of the unconscious Mizu Ayako.

The burqa girl moved. Dodged backwards.

"Who is it?" Matou Shinji shouted in a panic when he saw that his behavior was exposed.

The rider ignored Matou Shinji's shouting question. He waved one hand directly, swung the chain in his hand to throw away the chain sword, and drew a half-moon shape towards Matou Shinji and the burqa girl next to him - Assassin.

beside. The assassin grabbed Matou Shinji's collar with one hand and quickly jumped back to avoid it.

Taking advantage of this moment, Rider rushed in front of Mizu Ayako, grabbed her body, and quickly stepped back.

"Assassin, kill her!" Matou Shinji screamed angrily.

"Delusional heart sounds." the assassin girl whispered.

Then a blood-red, liquid hand that looked like it was made entirely of blood and magic, without any trace of skin protruded from the back of the Assassin girl, stretched infinitely to Rider's back, and moved towards the position corresponding to her back and heart. Caught it.

"Snapped!"

The invisible barrier shattered, and the blood-red palm fell on Rider's body.

However, the rider who was hit by the attack paused slightly and continued to rush forward at high speed. A few ups and downs disappeared from the eyes of Matou Shinji and Assassin.

"Snapped!"

Shinji Matou, who was watching the rider disappear, slapped Assassin on the cheek. The latter's eyes flashed and he lowered his head silently.

"Useless trash, you can't do such a good thing." Shinji Matou, who didn't notice the strange look in Assassin's eyes, shouted angrily...

At the same time, Rider returned to Sakura Tohsaka.

"Sister Medusa, are you okay?" Tohsaka Sakura asked with concern.

"It's okay." Medusa said softly as she put the unconscious Ayako Meisu on the ground.

"That should be a spell attack. It has weakened a lot after breaking my magic barrier, and it didn't cause any harm to me."

As Rider said, the delusional heart sound is a weird spell attack method with a strong one-hit kill effect. But the way to avoid it is also very simple. As long as you run out of the attack range of the spell, have a high resistance to magic, and be as lucky as God's illegitimate child, you can avoid the harm of delusional heart sounds.

Although the Rider who was summoned in this Holy Grail War was not lucky enough, with only a measly E, and the distance was very close at the time, she was not out of the attack range, but her own resistance to magic power was very high, plus Her rich experience and habits in magic warfare prepared her with a comprehensive magic barrier around her body, which still allowed her to successfully resist the attacks of Assassin.

"It's not a good time to stay here for a long time. We'd better leave here quickly, Sakura." Rider reminded.

"Okay." Tohsaka Sakura agreed.

Immediately, the two of them took the unconscious Ayako Mizu out of the school's back door and sent her to a nearby hospital.

…

"Why are you back so late today?" Ito Cheng asked looking at Tohsaka Sakura who walked into the room.

"I encountered something at school." Tohsaka Sakura explained.

"We met another Servant and his Master at school." The Rider Interface said, appearing from the void.

"Oh?" Ito Cheng raised his eyebrows and looked at Sakura.

"It's Senior Matou Shinji." Tohsaka Sakura replied.

"Tsk." Hearing the name coming out of Sakura's mouth. There was no look of surprise on Ito Cheng's face, but there was a trace of disgust in his expression.

"Tell me about that servant." Then, Ito Cheng asked.

"The other party's Servant is a female. She is covered in black robes. She has a very high agility attribute. She should be on par with me. Her attack method is unknown. What is known is a very strange curse killing technique." Rider said what he had obtained in a brief fight. The information is told.

"An unexpected situation finally occurred..." Ito Cheng sighed secretly, and then asked, "Where is the other party's rank?"

"It should be assassin." Rider replied.

"A female assassin..." Ito Cheng whispered to himself, and then the information of a servant who met the requirements kept appearing in his mind.

"There are three female assassins in total. Two of them are from the parallel world - the world of "fateapocrypha". They are on the red and black sides of this world. The real name of the red assassin is Semiramis, although It can also be used as a caster's progressive double summon, but the main attack method is not spells, but poison potions and props. And the agility may also reach an A equivalent to that of a rider."

"Black's is Jack the Ripper. His agility and attack methods are relatively similar."

"The last one is from the parallel world - the world of "Fatest Range Fake". The female Assassin who was not able to inherit the name of Hassan during her lifetime and ended up being martyred with the cult and was killed."

"Describe to me the manifestation of that spell." After recalling the information about Assassin in his mind. Ito Cheng asked again.

"It was a blood-red, grotesque arm, protruding from the girl's back. The point of attack was probably the heart." Rider recalled a little.

"Delusional heart sounds." Ito Cheng said quietly.

Upon hearing this familiar vocabulary, Rider immediately focused his attention on Ito Cheng.

"The delusional heart sound is the real name of Hassan Sabas, or the treasure of Assassin, who is said to be the old man in the mountain. Its effect is to use the arm formed by the spell to directly grab the target's heart, ignore any armor's defense, and pull the heart away Catch it and kill your opponent." Ito Cheng smiled slightly and explained to Rider and Sakura Tohsaka who were listening.

"Of course, this means that the essence of this attack method is much weirder in application. In addition to the direct attack method you have seen before, there is also the ability to memorize the opponent's form and appearance and copy it on the In the mirror, the mirror is used together with the spell to reflect the reality, and the ether block is used to create a 'dual existence' that is exactly the same as the depicted object, so that it resonates with the real body, and then harms the real body by harming this 'dual existence' How to use it.”

"Wouldn't it be impossible to escape after seeing Assassin once?" Tohsaka Sakura said with a worried look on her face.

Of course, she was not worried for herself, but for Rider, who had met Assassin because of her rescue order.

"You don't need to pay too much attention to this. Although the delusional heart sound is powerful, it is not absolutely defenseless. As long as you have high anti-magic power, you can still resist the opponent's attack from the front." Ito Cheng stretched out his hand and rubbed it gently Tohsaka Sakura's head smiled.

"Medusa is more in line with this. With her B-level resistance to magic, there are really no magic or spells in this world that can harm her."

"As for you, Sakura, it's best not to appear in front of Assassin. If he does, either ask Rider to kill Assassin immediately, or quickly return home and stay away from Assassin. As long as you stay a certain distance away from Assassin, you can definitely avoid it. The attack of delusional heart sounds." Ito Cheng looked at Tohsaka Sakura with a serious expression and said.

Knowing that this was for her own good, Tohsaka Sakura immediately nodded in agreement with a serious look on her face.

"Other than that, the only thing I can do is pray to God to make the delusional heartbeats fail." Ito Cheng made a half-joke at the end, which lightened the atmosphere in the room.

Tohsaka Sakura laughed.

"Oh, I should prepare dinner." At this time, Sakura, who had put aside her worries, raised her head slightly, and suddenly saw the time displayed on the wall clock. She exclaimed, immediately got up and ran towards the kitchen quickly.

However, after Sakura left, Ito Cheng's brows wrinkled again.

"Is there any problem?" Rider asked.

"This year's Assassins are a bit troublesome." Ito Cheng didn't hide anything about Rider, sighing in a low voice.

"This generation's Assassin can be said to be the most difficult guy in the 'Old Man of the Mountain' group. Although he did not inherit the name of Sabas and the skull mask as the leader like the previous 18 generations, but with his Although she has excellent talents, she learned all the abilities of the assassin during her lifetime. In other words, she can use eighteen kinds of noble phantasms belonging to the assassin, and the weird delusional heart sound is just one of them."

"What other abilities are there?" Rider asked.

"I only know four kinds, delusional heart sounds, delusional fantasies, delusional computers, and moon marrow liquid. As for the other fourteen, I don't know either." Ito Cheng said helplessly.

The rider stood there in silence.

"Forget it, I'll tell you the information the other three middle schools know first, so that you won't be caught off guard." After a moment of silence, Ito Cheng said.

"You already know the delusional heart sound, so I won't go into it. Delusional fantasy is a kind of clone skill. I learned it from the 18th generation Hassan. The effect is that you can divide yourself into eighty different individuals, and Each one has an independent way of thinking and acting. In other words, an assassin in this state has eighty lives. Only by killing them all can the assassin be truly killed. A few splits can be performed during use, but The maximum limit cannot exceed eighty."

"Utopia Computer is an attack method that turns the enemy's head into a bomb, causing it to detonate and blow up the enemy's body. In terms of form, it can be regarded as a variant of the delusional heart sound. Therefore, the resistance method is the same as the delusional heart sound and requires a high level of resistance. Magic or super long distance."

"Moon Marrow Spirit Liquid is similar to delusional heart sounds and delusional computers. The difference is that it uses a spell to ignite the target's magic power, causing the enemy to spontaneously combust to death. The resistance method is as above."

"Okay, that's all. Now go upstairs to my room to find Medea. She needs your help with something." After the explanation, Ito Cheng took a long breath and then said again.

The rider nodded, turned around and walked towards the second floor. (To be continued...)
