Chapter 1646: Are you sure
Ryuudo Shrine was one of the famous landmarks near Fuyuki. Except during the Holy Grail War, it was usually ruled by the Ryuudo clan. Ryuudo Issei and Tohsaka Rin went to the same school, and the relationship between them was extremely bad.
Walking down the stone steps that led to the temple, Rin was in a good mood because she would finally have the chance to test her new powers. As for Ilyasvil, she continued to stare at Su Xiao as if she was ready to sink her teeth into him at any moment.
Bubtney jumped five or more steps at a time, but soon became a little depressed because he thought of his friend, who unfortunately wasn't in this world.
Soon, Su Xiao saw the Ryuudo Temple at the top of the mountain. Inside the temple, it was pitch black, with fluctuations in magical power vaguely felt inside.
As soon as he arrived at the temple gate, a single figure gradually materialized in front of them. It was a guy with long indigo hair. In his hands was a long sword that was almost one and a half meters long.
It was a Heroic Soul, Sasaki Kojiro, and the long sword in his hands was called Monohoshi..
— Is this our next opponent? Rin asked and took a few steps back.
— Your opponent is a Heroic Soul named Medea, Caster, you'll just need to hold it off.
— What? Are you seriously telling me, Master, to fight a Heroic Soul? I should be fighting a fellow Master, not a Heroic Soul!
Rin obviously didn't want to fight a Heroic Soul. Even though she was getting stronger, she still didn't feel strong enough to fight a Servant, much less Caster.
— Are you sure?" Su Xiao asked, a gentle smile appearing on his face.
— I ... uh~, of course!
— Then Soichiro Kouzuki is on you, I'll take on Caster.
— Well.
What Rin didn't know was that Soichiro was actually strong. In the past, this man was a trained assassin.
Soichiro was special in a way. At first, Caster's Master wasn't him, but someone else, but because of her temper, that Master died, and then she accidentally met Soichiro. Because of his indifferent nature, they came to an agreement. As a result, Caster was now completely loyal to Soichiro and used her abilities to summon a fake Assassin, i.e. Sasaki Kojiro.
This also explained why Soichiro had two Heroic Souls. In fact, Medea, being a Heroic Soul, was the true Master of this group. It gave magic power to Soichiro and Sasaki. They were both warriors and were responsible for close combat.
Amu and Rin walked past Sasaki. Sasaki, holding the long sword in his hands, didn't move. A swordsman's intuition told him that if he dared to distract himself now, he would lose his head the next moment.
*A clang*
Su Xiao pulled out a long sword from his waist and slowly started walking up the stone steps.
A cool breeze began to sweep through the surrounding area, sending dry leaves flying into the air.
When a dry leaf flew in front of Su Xiao, it suddenly broke apart.
Seeing this, Sasaki started to descend and finally stopped at a landing almost two meters wide between stone steps.
Pulling out his longsword, Sasaki tossed the scabbard aside.
— Although I don't have a name, my entire life has been dedicated to the sword. This sword is called... Monohoshi Zao, " Sasaki said, spreading his legs slightly apart and leaning in.
A sword that was almost a meter and a half long was placed in front of his face.
Sasaki's expression was serious because he could sense the danger from Su Xiao. He felt as if a vicious beast was looking at him right now, while he was a calf.
The corners of Sasaki's mouth turned up. He was summoned to this world without any mission and was assigned as the" watchdog " of the temple.
And so, faced with such a strong enemy, not only was he not afraid, but he instead wanted to try to cut something off from this " vicious beast».
Su Xiao didn't say anything.
The ground beneath his feet was slowly splitting apart as Qing Gang Yin's energy enveloped the Dragon Flash blade.
— Tsubame Gaeshi.
Sasaki's sword immediately slashed horizontally at Su Xiao.
*A clang~*
The scene in front of Su Xiao seemed to have been plunged into darkness, but in that darkness, a glare suddenly appeared.
Almost immediately this glare was supplemented by two more and the three of them rushed towards Su Xiao.
His pupils immediately narrowed.
The famous triple attack. He was able to achieve this not only due to his speed, but also because of his peculiarity.
Two attacks wanted to split his body into two parts at the sides, and one wanted to split him into parts starting from his head and ending with his legs.
These attacks weren't magnificent, terrifying, or domineering.
They carried with them only a sharp whistle.
*A clang*
The flash pierced right through Sasaki's body and flew into the forest behind him.
After cutting down a few trees, the flash disappeared from view.
With a ringing sound, part of the blade fell to the steps.
Sasaki looked Su Xiao up and down and was a little disappointed. "Like you.".. stopped it? Sasaki asked and breathed a sigh of relief.
In the next moment, blood gushed out from his chest and stomach.
— Your Hiken is, after all, just a space-penetrating strike. Instead of three simultaneous attacks, you attack once in different spaces and end up putting them all together in one. The principles of this technique are not difficult to understand, but it is extremely difficult to repeat it. I was only able to fend off two attacks, the third one injured me, " Su Xiao said and raised his hand.
The layer of crystals under his hand shattered, revealing a bloodstain.
— Killing you is extremely difficult ... " said Sasaki, stopping covering his wounds. — This fox is very unlucky.
Sasaki soon disappeared, leaving behind a legendary treasure chest.
He was weakened and was the weakest Servant in this war, but he had very serious skills, in terms of skills, he surpassed 90% of Heroic Souls. Because of this, the chest that fell from it was legendary.
Picking up the chest from the ground, Su Xiao entered the temple.
At this moment, the temple was already very busy.
----
In the inner courtyard of Ryuudo Temple.
*Bang!*
Rin slammed into the wall, shook her head, and spat blood. Her face was contorted with pain.
Not far from her was a man in a suit and tie, he was dressed like an ordinary teacher.
His face was lifeless. His fists were clenched and magic power was constantly circulating through his hands.
It was Soichiro Kouzuki himself.
Rin sighed heavily. He was just as skilled as she was, but she was the only one who got beaten up in this battle, and she was already beginning to doubt her own competence.
