Almost at the same time as Mordred burst out, Kairi Shishigou also took out his weapon without hesitation and aimed it at Lancer.
Although they only had one Servant here and the opponent had three, he, as Mordred's comrade-in-arms, did not back down at all.
The word 'mercenary' always unconsciously evokes a sense of disgust in people.
War, greed, slaughter, death...
It seems that their existence is inseparable from these things.
These words can almost be said to always revolve around mercenaries, and of course, this is a fact, but only those who are truly in this line of work know that although the things they do are not honorable, they also have their own code of conduct, or rather, something that must be adhered to --- partners.
It is impossible for a person to survive on a chaotic battlefield alone. At times like this, the existence of a partner is needed. So as long as a person is treated as a true partner by a mercenary, they will never be abandoned, because if you abandon your partner, you will also be abandoned one day.
There was no doubt that in Kairi Shishigou's eyes at this time, Lancer was the best choice. After all, according to the information he knew, the other party was Assassin's Master and was not famous in the magical world.
But if he knew that the other party had just killed Red's Rider, Assassin, and Amakusa Shirou Tokisada, who was a Master but in reality a Ruler, he would not regret making this choice, would he?
Fortunately, the current situation was not too bad. After all, Lancer was in a double weakened state, and his combat power was even worse than that of a normal person, but Siegfried once again blocked his shooting path...
The two sides confronted each other like this, but at this moment ---
"Swish~!"
Accompanied by the sound of a bowstring being pulled, an arrow shot from behind and landed in the middle of the two sides.
'Red's Archer?'
'Black's Archer?'
Both sides almost simultaneously thought of this possibility, so their expressions were a bit serious. And when they saw Chiron holding a long bow appear, Mordred's armor actually trembled slightly.
Of course, this was not because of fear, but because she had already made up her mind and was excited about going all out.
As for what kind of resolve? It was simple --- the resolve to die.
"Master, I'm sorry. Because of my boring idea, you have to die here too."
"Hehe~ There's nothing to be sorry about. After all, when I stepped on this land, I was already prepared to leave myself here. Anyway, it doesn't matter to me..."
Kairi Shishigou did not have any intention of backing down because of the dead end in front of him. There was even a hint of relief in his voice.
Mordred, who heard the other party's words, couldn't help but show a hint of confusion on her face, which was hidden inside her helmet. She seemed to not understand why Kairi Shishigou would have such a reaction.
'There's no point in thinking about these things now. Now, let me have a good rampage. If... if we can both survive, then I'll ask Master.'
Although she had already made up her mind, it was not her habit to be afraid before a battle. Her words did not show any sign of backing down.
"Master! You have to believe in me! I am the Saber of the strongest class!"
"You don't even have to say it! As a mercenary, I don't want to die here so easily! Go for it! Partner!!"
"Puff~"
After Kairi Shishigou said that, Mordred actually laughed without giving him any face, which made Kairi Shishigou a bit confused.
"I'm sorry~ Master. I didn't expect you to call me 'partner', but... I really like this title! Let me go crazy one last time! Partner!!"
"Alright!! Let's have a good rampage!!"
Holding a gun in one hand and a special grenade in the other, Kairi Shishigou also undoubtedly decided to go all out.
He wasn't going to wait to die anyway. Instead of sitting back and waiting for death, he might as well fight one more time before Archer arrived!
He took the safety off the grenade and threw it over, but he naturally didn't expect to kill a Servant with the grenade's damage alone. He was just using the smoke from the explosion to cover for Mordred.
But the moment the grenade left his hand, it was hit by an arrow flying in the air and instantly exploded.
'Was the distance not enough?'
Although it didn't reach the best position, he couldn't hesitate anymore. Mordred charged without hesitation, and Jeanne also raised her holy flag to block her.
"Clang~!"
Although it was a bit difficult, Mordred's attack was undoubtedly blocked.
"Tsk~! That face of yours really annoys me!"
"What?!"
The moment Mordred's words left her mouth, Jeanne couldn't help but ask back, but what she didn't expect was that the power coming from the place where their weapons clashed suddenly increased.
"I said --- that face of yours really annoys me!! You look so much like that person!!!"
Accompanied by Mordred's roar, her power suddenly increased, and she directly pushed Jeanne away. Then, with her two hands holding her sword, she fiercely attacked Jeanne without hesitation.
"Why!!"
"Why can't I!!"
"What did I do wrong!!"
"You'd rather watch this place turn into scorched earth than give it to me!! Why!!"
Just as Lancer said, although Jeanne and Artoria looked similar, their hairstyles, auras, eyes, and other aspects were very different. Logically speaking, anyone who was familiar with the two would not mistake them, and Mordred would naturally not mistake them.
The reason it became like this was entirely because of 'displaced anger'.
Her 'wish' that she was looking forward to could not be fulfilled, and she was in a dead end. Now, a person who looked very similar to her 'obsession' appeared in front of her. It would be strange if she didn't lose her mind.
And Jeanne was frowning and constantly retreating slowly, trying to deflect the other party's power, but unfortunately, compared to the other party's sudden increase in power, it was just a drop in the bucket.
After a round of fierce attacks, they had actually slowly approached Lancer and the others behind them. Jeanne gritted her teeth and no longer retreated.
She propped the end of her flagpole on the ground, and her foot changed from vertical to horizontal...
"Swish~!"
She dragged a long distance on the ground, but she at least managed to stop her. But at this moment ---
"Swish~!"
Accompanied by the sound of an arrow being shot again, this time, the arrow once again landed at the feet of the two.
'He's here already? That's the worst possible answer.'
But at the same time, Mordred also had a question. She had thought the opponent had missed before, but now it seemed that the other party had no intention of attacking, or rather, killing her?
What was going on?
