Fate: Why Don't you Find Another Savior

Chapter 29: Chapter 28: Misjudgment



It was no accident that Keyneth El-Melloi Archibald appeared in the Einzbern Forest.

Not long after Tatsuya Suzuki and Morgan left home, Keyneth, fully prepared and carrying magical tools and costumes, arrived at the Suzuki residence in Miyama Town with his servant Lancer.

A magician's residence often serves as their workshop, with powerful barriers on the outside and numerous traps and mechanisms inside to deter both magicians and ordinary people.

In this regard, Tatsuya Suzuki was no exception.

Although the barrier of the Suzuki family seemed free to come and go, it actually contained sufficient warning mechanisms. Anyone trying to break through by force would inevitably encounter significant trouble.

Of course, this was just a bit of trouble for Keyneth, the genius magician of the Clock Tower and a descendant of a famous family.

After easily opening a gap in the barrier, Keyneth asked Lancer to search Suzuki's house, only to find it empty.

Afterward, Keyneth used tracking magic to follow the traces of Tatsuya Suzuki's departure and arrived at the Einzbern Forest.

This time, it was a case of catching rabbits while killing grass. The priority was to defeat Caster, and then find the right opportunity to attack Tatsuya Suzuki.

However, it would be a different matter if the other party realized their own disadvantages and sought cooperation with other camps or even established one of the three major families in the Holy Grail War system.

On the way into the forest, Keyneth discovered that Caster was already fighting with someone. The rapidly multiplying sea monsters overwhelmed the surrounded figures. Even Lancer, apart from Caster who was holding the magic book to maintain his magic, could only see Artoria rushing left and right, appearing and disappearing from time to time.

But at the same time, Lancer could also feel that within the sea monster's encirclement, there was a huge amount of magic power equal to Caster's gathering.

Equivalent to a Servant, which meant... Berserker was also included.

After the first confrontation last night, Keyneth knew that this Berserker was special and had an excellent magic level that was outstanding even among Casters.

Keyneth judged that Artoria and Berserker were following the orders of their respective masters and joining forces to defeat Caster.

This way, Keyneth also knew what to do.

He asked Lancer to stay and wait for an opportunity to join the battle and seize the spoils of the battle against Caster.

The Command Seals were a precious strategic resource, and even if there were no losses, it was necessary to prevent other Masters from increasing their numbers.

Although Lancer did not like this way of fighting that stole military merits, allowing Caster to continue doing evil would inevitably bring disaster to the world. He had to suppress his inner chivalry at this time, obey his lord's orders, and transform himself into a ranger who kills evil.

After instructing Lancer on his actions, Keyneth quickly went deep into the Einzbern Forest and arrived at the castle.

He had made all the preparations. If it was a magic showdown, even if it was one-on-two or even one-on-three, Keyneth was confident that he could defeat the masters, including Tohsaka Tokiomi.

"As expected of a famous German magic family, they must live in a castle even in this remote place in the Far East." Keyneth mocked the nouveau riche of Einzbern with a slight sense of superiority.

Even if we only talk about family lineage, Einzbern's history is not shorter than Archibald's.

Keyneth took out a glass bottle filled with mercury and placed it on the ground, with the bottom of the bottle sinking deeply into the ground. He performed a magic trick to reduce the weight of the bottle so that he could carry it with him.

In fact, this bottle looked about the same size as the bottle used to store chemical reagents in school, but it actually contained 40 kilograms of mercury.

"Fervor, mei sanguis (Let my blood boil)."

Among Kenneth's many magical gifts at this time, the one he was most proud of was the "Moon Spirit Marrow Fluid."

"Automatoportumdefensio; Automatoportumquaerere; Dilectus incursio (Automatic defense; Automatic reconnaissance; Designated attack)."

Every time Keyneth recited a spell, the mercury rolling on the ground would vibrate slightly, like a drop of water with full tension leaving the container.

The door of Einzbern was not locked but wide open, saving Keyneth the need to break in.

He climbed the stairs and walked into the hall.

"The ninth head of the Archibald family, Keyneth El-Melloi Archibald, is here to visit! Magicians of Einzbern, for the Holy Grail that you and I pursue, let's fight fair and square, with our lives and honor at stake!"

Keyneth stood in the hall and declared loudly.

However, there was no preemptive attack from magic as expected, and no mechanisms were activated, as if this brightly lit castle had no one living in it.

"In this age of noise and mystery, has magic become a cheap tool used to pursue false fame?"

A cold female voice sounded, echoing in the hall.

Tap, tap, tap. Along with this sound, the sound of high heels walking down the stairs also echoed.

Above the staircase opposite the main entrance of the hall, on the corner platform extending to both sides, a woman with long silver hair took the handrail, walked down gracefully, and then turned around.

Not an Einzbern android, but...

"Berserker..."

Keyneth took a deep breath, realizing that he had underestimated his enemy because he was too well prepared, and even took it for granted that the man with magic power comparable to Caster was also a Servant.

In fact, the one who fought against Caster together with Artoria was the Master, Tatsuya Suzuki.

Keyneth knew that he had no chance of winning against the servant, but it would not be difficult for him to escape unscathed.

Just as he was about to use the "Moon Spirit Marrow Fluid" to retreat, the gate of Einzbern closed for no reason, and the moment it closed, a huge amount of magical power blocked it.

"Although I said that just now, since you are willing to risk your reputation as a magician and come to challenge me, as a fellow magician, I cannot refuse the challenge." Morgan stood at the top of the stairs, raised her index finger calmly, and said with a smile, "One minute. If you can survive my magic within this minute, I will let you go tonight."

Indeed, it was Keyneth who ordered Lancer to attack Suzuki.

Morgan felt disgusted when she saw the man.

But now she enjoys being Suzuki's wife.

If his wife were too keen on doing everything for him, Suzuki might not like it now, so Morgan did not declare her intention to kill Keyneth. Instead, she wanted to spare Keyneth 's life and let Suzuki personally eliminate this arrogant enemy.

Not good!

The complacency of the previous moment had vanished, and Keyneth now understood that he would have a chance of winning only if he could survive this minute.

"Vollständige Verteidigung (Total Defense)!"

Therefore, the only option was defense.

Before Morgan finished speaking, he was already waiting for the magic gun to fire and hit him.

Keyneth used the "Moon Spirit Marrow Fluid" to defend himself.
