While Roland gained friends, the battle on the field did not stop because of Gilgamesh's departure.
After seeing Gilgamesh leave, Darnic's voice quickly rang out on the battlefield.
"Back off, Lancer."
Although Lancer was more of a main force than the two who started the fight against Archer, Darnic would never become arrogant because of this.
As a participant in the last Holy Grail War, he would have been subject to unnecessary hostility, but after Lancer properly demonstrated his strength, he would become an object that other Masters feared but also wanted to fight for. His Servant was not like Archer, who was not happy until he fought three at once.
After all, the victory or defeat between servants is not determined solely by combat power, and no one knows what kind of strange treasures other servants are hiding.
Lancer had no objection to this, and after Gilgamesh left, he had no desire to fight.
After witnessing the power of Lancer, any rational Master would not restart the war at this time, but there are always exceptions.
"Berserker, go ahead!"
Whether from the perspective of a magician or a tactical perspective, Matou Kariya is a half-baked one.
He has a kind heart, but he is always obsessed and forgets what he should do in the first place.
He clearly wanted to save Sakura, but when he saw the face of Tohsaka Tokiomi's servant, he felt unhappy. If he could make the other party suffer a loss, he would be willing to do so even if it would shorten his own life by a few days.
But when he heard Danic's voice, he remembered that his real target was not Tohsaka Tokiomi, but this guy, so he forced the berserker to move forward.
The black knight suddenly rushed out after receiving the order, then changed his route halfway through the run, waving the treasure he had snatched from Archer, and attacked Saber fiercely.
"?"
The Lancer, who was ready to fight back, was confused by this sudden turn of events, not to mention the others.
"What, what's going on?"
In the deserted dark alley, Matou Kariya spat out a mouthful of blood, "Oh no, is it because of that King Arthur? The berserker has gone berserk, damn it, I consumed too much magic power before, and I can't completely control that guy."
In the battles before Lancer's arrival, Berserker was the undisputed main force. Relying only on his two hands and his superb martial arts, he was able to remain unscathed in the fierce attacks of Archer. This consumed a huge amount of magic power. Even though Kariya's magic power had been enhanced and was much more abundant than before, he could only issue orders to retreat. When asked to launch an attack, Berserker's desire to run wild could no longer be suppressed.
Although she was overwhelmed by the sudden attack from the Berserker, Saber still responded quickly. The invisible sword in her hand whistled again with the rising magic power. She waved the sword silently to resist the Berserker's continuous attack.
"That berserker, could it be possible that he knows Saber?"
Rider asked doubtfully, but Saber, who was in the middle of an intense battle, obviously had no intention of answering his question.
"Who are you?"
Saber said in a stern voice, but the black knight still had no intention of stopping, and when in close contact with the invisible sword, Berserker let out an inhuman wail, like a curse of resentment. In the frenzy state, he had lost the ability to speak, but he was still able to make such a painful sound, which was enough to prove his resentment.
"Arthur, Arthur...Arthur?"
But the funny thing was, as he spoke words of resentment, his tone became more and more strange, and in the end, it turned into a complete question.
His attacks became weaker and weaker, and in the end, he just raised his eyes full of resentment, looked at Saber's face, and vented the doubts in his heart with wails.
"Man...Arthur...Impossible..."
As if his worldview had been shattered by a shock, Berserker stood there blankly, trying to understand the current situation with his brain that was incapable of complex thinking after being corroded by frenzy.
Although King Arthur is a woman, the guy in front of him looks like Arthur, uses Arthur's sword, and has Arthur's breath, so he is King Arthur!
After thinking with the help of the King's Kitchen Radar hidden in his body, Berserker's murderous aura swelled up again and rushed towards Saber.
Suddenly, the two of them started fighting again.
Seeing this scene, Kayneth's desire to take action began to stir again.
Although there was a mistake with Archer, if Rider could obey his orders, it would be equivalent to letting the opponent lose a Command Spell in vain. Now, the most troublesome Lancer and Archer have left the field, and Saber's Master is here.
Isn't this exactly the scene he was expecting?
In the previous tentative battle, it can be seen that Saber has potential that matches his class, and Rider is at a disadvantage in front of him. Compared to the Master of the Berserker who seems to be unable to control even his servants and does not need to worry at all, now is the best opportunity.
"Hey, Rider, you go and cooperate with Berserker to attack Saber, I'll deal with that Einzbern android."
"I refuse to obey such orders."
Not even bothering to explain his reasons, Rider glanced coldly at Kayneth and continued to look at the battlefield.
The awe-inspiring look and the tall, majestic body made Kayneth's breath stop, but his pride did not allow him to bow down in front of his servant.
"Why? Didn't you see the results of the battle just now?" Kayneth said with a somewhat unnatural expression, but even Wever could tell that he was obviously holding on.
Rider just shook his head in boredom, not even thinking of responding.
But this attitude angered Kayneth again. He raised the back of his hand, on which a stroke of the Command Spell had turned dim, and spoke in a rather timid tone.
"How dare you defy me who possesses the Command Seal!"
But Rider just looked at him sharply and said in a deep voice.
"It seems that you, Master, do not understand why Servants obey their Masters. You use magic as a sacrifice to provide Servants with a mortal body and help in battle. You also hold the dream of pursuing the Holy Grail, thus allowing two people from different eras and with different personalities to cooperate. This is the relationship between us."
"I will not regard you as my subordinate, and similarly, you cannot regard me as a tool. Otherwise, when the three-stroke Command Spell is used up, the Servant may look for another Master of his choice."
"You actually want to betray me?"
Kayneth roared, but Rider just looked at him with a bored look, and patted Weber who was shivering and shrinking his neck in this stiff atmosphere.
"This is at most a breakdown of cooperation. You are not qualified to let Iskander betray you, Master. If you really do not intend to continue this contract, then use the Command Seal to issue the order."
Hearing these words, Kenneth gritted his teeth and could only watch as the Berserker was knocked away by Saber and then hurriedly recalled by his Master.
Just like that, with the departure of the troublemakers, this chaotic first battle came to an end.
"Although it's a little unexpected, it's generally under control."
After seeing off Kotomine Kirei, who seemed to be in deep thought and had attained enlightenment, Roland and Caster watched the end of this first battle in its entirety.
"Except for us, the true names of the other six masters and heroic spirits are already in your grasp."
Caster also nodded, "But there are some powerful ones among them, so we need to make long-term plans. It is best to target the Master directly and sever his contract."
"Archer and Saber can't escape from my grasp. As for Lancer, hey, that guy Darnic, he's already in a trap, he thinks he can get out. You know,
—The effect of a self-compulsory certificate is absolute."
Roland narrowed his eyes, flashing with brilliance.
