"Shit! Ruruko is loses!" Saji shouted with a hard breath because all the thing he do until now take a big toll on his body. "This is bad! It look like Ruruko doesn't have a chance to use her final moves to defeat the nekomata!"
"Koneko you did a payback for our lost, good job!" Shirou said while patting Koneko head.
"Her basic martial arts skill is above me," Koneko said while blushing because Shirou patting head. "But my strength and endurance is above her that's the reason she lost againts me."
"Koneko your are a rook and Ruruko is a pawn, it's only natural that your endurance and strength is above her," Shirou said while smiling towards Koneko. "But I must admit that she is did a great job to fight you in a equal for a couple minutes, she must be training really hard to became that strong."
"Yeah, I knew Senpai," Koneko said. "She really did giving me a hard time to beat her, if I'm not train my senjutsu maybe both of us will loses at the same time!"
"Azazel really did a great job convince you to train your senjutsu," Shirou said. "And the result of your training is really paid of in this rating games! Take a break for a little Koneko, because I still had an enemy to defeat right now."
"Okay, I will take a rest for a moment," Koneko said. "And Shirou-Senpai please be careful, because you caught of guard once after you underestimated your enemy."
Koneko have a worried expression on her faces, she genuinely worry that Shirou will caught off guard once more.
"Don't worry Koneko," Shirou said. "Because that won't happen for the second times."

Saji can feel a hurt on all part of his body right now, the action he took to defeat Shirou had a really big prices to pay. He using his own life force to strengthen his body beyond the limit of power using his Sacred Gear and right now he already can feel the side effect of it. But Saji trying his best to endure it because he knew to defeat Shirou the strongest member of Rias peerage he must using all the power and trick he have on his sleeve.
"You enduring the hurt in your body quite well Saji, that was great," Shirou said while standing not far from Saji. "But I think you better stop your effort strengthen yourself using your own life forces, it not worthed if you die just for the sake of defeating me."
"A people who was blessed with a great talent and power like you and Hyoudou will never undestand the feeling of someone like me!" Shouted Saji while trying his best to stand. "Hyoudou and you have a great Sacred Gear at Longinus Class! And both of you also have a beautiful girlfriend with a nice boobs! Are you didn't know how jealous I am to both of you! You both are really got a luck from heaven while I just and ordinary people without a talent and girlfriend!"
'That kid is more loser than Hyoudou Issei,' Zelretch said. 'He jealous to you because of a stupid reason! If he want to became like you or Hyoudou why he didn't try to change himself first, if he want to amaze the heir of Sitri. Rather than jealous for no apparent reason towards you.'
'Well I agree with you this time, Zelretch, even though Issei is almost like him, but Issei trying his best to be a better man for Irina,' Shirou said. 'While Saji training his ability only to direct his anger to me.'

"You know another reason why I'm really jealous to you Emiya? Sona-Kaichou is always praising you! She really admire your power and ability!" Saji said while collecting large amount of magical energy in his left hand. "She even put a photo of you on her desk! That was my final limit! I really can't endure my anger towards you anymore Emiya! Why she didn't love me! And only loving you instead!"
'He have someone like Ruruko who loving him very much,' Shirou said. 'But he instead convince himself that he love Sona-Kaichou because she is his first crush? How stupid he can be!'
'Jealousy and envy can made someone so blind to the point he will not understand other people words,' Zelretch said with a sigh. 'And right now that clown states is really like what I just said.'
Saji throwing the magical energy ball in his left hand toward Shirou, he knew that his attack is not enough to beat Shirou. But he hope atleast his attack can wound Shirou even for a little.
Shirou tracing his trusty twin falchion Kanshou and Bakuya, and try to cut Saji magical energy in half. Suddenly a magical circle appear under Shirou feet with a lot of black key surround the magic circle and in instant Shirou can feel the effect of magic circle and the black key. Because Shirou cannot move his body at all.
'He already making a trap right when I talking to Koneko, huh,' Shirou said. 'Sona-Kaichou really prepared a lot of plan to defeat me, he even using a black key that strengthen using a magic circle. In case on one black key not enough to stop my movement.'
'If your power is still like when you are a Counter Guardian then this trap will really stop your movement,' Zelretch said. 'But right now, you are much more stronger than your old self and have other abilities that your old self didn't have, so this kind of trap will be useless to trap you.'
'Oh, well let's surprised him with a great escape trick that will made him really surprised!' Shirou said.

The magical energy ball attack hit Shirou body directly because Shirou cannot move his body at all. A lot of smoke appear because of Saji attack making Saji cannot see what happen to Shirou after his attack hit him. But Saji sure this time his attack atleast will made Shirou have a wound.
"Ahahaha eat that Emiya!" Saji laughed he really happy that the trap he prepared is working. "Sona-Kaichou is knew that I can defeat you even when I turn my own life force to strengthen my self, so she prepared another plan to defeat you! And this is her backup plan in case my effort to drain your power using my Sacred Gear is not working! A trap using a black key that the church use to kill a vampire and devil. That she get from the black market!"
When Saji feel happy and try his best to stand up because he lost a lot of energy and power. Shirou appear in front of him and grabbing Saji arm from below, carrying it up while also pressing his side close to Saji waist, and simultaneously delivering a blow to Saji heart with his left elbow and a strike from his left foot to the supporting leg, all in an instant. Making Saji body fall down to the ground.
"Super Bajiquan Six Grand Opening - Elbow Upthrust," Shirou said. "This attack will bring you down once for all in this Rating Games Saji."
Saji whose body lying on the mall floor because of Shirou attack didn't believe to what happen in front of him. He really sure that his attack is hitting Shirou body directly, but suddenly he appear in front of him and doing some kind of kungfu moves that he didn't recognize to his body and defeat him. He really confused how Shirou can survived his attack and get out of the trap.
"Ho-how did you su-survive my attack and get out of the trap?" Asked Saji when his consciusness almost gone.
"A magician will never reveal his secret to the audience, Saji," Answered Shirou. "Why did you not try to solve it by yourselves how I can get put of that trap and survive your attack."
After hearing Shirou answer Saji lose his consciusness and the disappear from the mall.
