Caster did not act alone this time.There were about a dozen people behind him.Take a walk in the forest.These people are all underage children.Among them, the oldest child is only a primary school student.All the children seemed to be sleepwalking, walking staggeringly, and the caster walked in front and led them forward.There is no doubt that the children are under the control of caster's magic.

"The caster must have seen the supervisor's announcement and kidnapped these children from around Fuyuki City."

"Ellie. Where's that guy's location?"

"To the northwest of the castle, less than two kilometers away. Caster doesn't seem to want to go further into the forest." Irisviel answered Emiya Kiritsugu's question.

The enchantment opened in the forest is a circle with a diameter of five kilometers formed around the castle. The location of the caster is at the border of this enchantment.

If Caster goes one step further inside the barrier, Irisviel can assist Saber in the battle.But Caster seemed to have seen through Alice's motives, and began to wander around the periphery of the barrier.

"Irisviel, the enemy is tempting us to dispatch." Saber said in a firm tone.

With her foot strength as a servant, it only takes a few minutes to reach the place where the caster is. Saber was extremely anxious at this moment, and wanted to go out and beat Caster hard.But the King of Knights cannot act arbitrarily. The group of children gathered behind Caster was the source of the King of Knights' uneasiness.

"It's a hostage. It must be." Irisviel said in a melancholy voice.

Saber nodded.

"If the traps and traps set up are activated, those children will be implicated. Only by directly dispatching and defeating the caster can those children be rescued."

Caster's beast-like eyes suddenly looked up.Staring at the direction where Irisviel was, she raised her arms extremely courteously and bowed to Irisviel.

"I came here to visit you as promised last night." The surface of the hard crystal ball began to shake, and the voice came from the surveillance location.

"Now, please give me an order to let me pay my respects to that beautiful saint again."

Saber stared at Irisviel, urging her to give an order quickly.The girl who is a servant is ready to fight.It's just that her master is still hesitating.

Caster seemed to have seen through Irisviel's mind, showed a look of contempt, as if performing a one-man show, sneered and continued: "It seems that I still can't make up my mind. I also plan to wait for a long time , you can prepare slowly. Oh, what a boring game. Can I borrow a corner of your territory?"

Caster snapped his fingers.The children who had been obediently following behind the caster just now opened their eyes as if they had woken up from a dream.The children looked around helplessly, as if unable to figure out where they were.

"Listen kids, we're playing hide-and-seek. The rules are simple. Just run away from me. If I catch you..." Caster swished out his hand from the sleeve of his cassock, Grabbed a child beside him.

"Stop!" Saber knew that her stopping would have no effect, but she still couldn't help shouting.

The sound of skulls shattering.Brains splashing around and eyeballs falling in the air.Those nightmarish scenes were imprinted in everyone's mind.

The children let out a heart-rending cry.Flee everywhere.The caster standing in the center laughed happily, "licking" his bloody fingers with his tongue.

"Run away. I'll start after you when I count to a hundred. So, Jeanne, how long will you prepare before I catch all the children?"

Seeing this situation, Irisviel no longer hesitated.It was impossible to hesitate any longer.

"Saber, defeat Caster for me."

"Obey!" The Knight King's answer was extremely short.When Irisviel heard Saber's answer, she had already disappeared in the conference room.It's just that the gust of wind blowing behind her was full of unusual anger.

-------------Chapter Dividing Line---------------

On the dusty ground behind Saber, the flying dust was soaked with sufficient moisture.The moisture was not caused by rain, but red blood.

It was a disgusting stench.Surrounded by a sea of ​​blood. What kind of cruel killing did Caster carry out to cause such an unbearable scene? When Saber thought of this, she felt extremely painful in her heart.

And those who were killed were all young and lovely children. Saber remembered the children who were screaming out of fear in the crystal ball.This is just what happened.It happened just a few minutes ago, before Saber flew into the forest.

At that time, I was still a living child.Now it's turned into a mess of bones

"You're finally here, Joan of Arc. I've been waiting for a long time." Caster welcomed the immobile silver-white figure with a hearty smile.

Caster had a smug smile on his face, as if he was very satisfied with the grand "banquet" he held. Caster stood in the middle of the sea of ​​blood, his dark cassock was stained with the blood of the hostages, making his smile even more terrifying.

"Seeing this tragedy, how do you feel? You are heartbroken? Can you imagine the pain those innocent and lovely children endured in the end? But Joan, this is not a real tragedy. Compared with me After losing you, in order to meet you again—”

Saber had nothing to say, nor was she in the mood to listen to Caster's long speech.She wanted to split the caster into two pieces with one sword, and without a moment's hesitation, she took a step towards the caster.

Caster also sensed the killing intent from Saber's moving footsteps, stopped talking, and suddenly threw his hands from the corners of the cassock.The thing that has been hidden in Caster's arms has once again stopped Saber from moving forward.

The sound of crying stopped Saber who wanted to rush over directly.It was a child, the only surviving child.He was trembling and crying, his little head was tightly held by the caster, as if he would be crushed into pieces by this crazy servant at any moment.

"Oh, Joan, your angry eyes are really touching." Caster smiled at Saber leisurely.

"Do you hate me that much? Yes, you should hate me. I betrayed God's love and you will never forgive me. You are more pious to God than anyone else."

"Let go of that child." Saber's tone of command to Caster was as cold as a sword.

"This battle for the Holy Grail is to select the Heroic Spirit who is most worthy of the Holy Grail. If you use tactics that taint Heroic Spirits, you will be discarded by the Holy Grail."

"Since you've been resurrected again, the Holy Grail is useless to me, Joan of Arc. If you really want to save this child's life." Caster couldn't help laughing, and then, with disappointment on his face, gently He let go of his hand and put the child on the ground.

"Stop crying, child. You should be happy. God's devout believers have come to save you. The omnipotent God has finally appeared. All your friends have not received God's help, only you."

The young child seemed to understand that the blond girl galloping forward was her savior, and burst into tears.At the same time, he ran straight towards Saber.

The child's little hand grabbed the armor on Saber's leg. Saber lightly "touched" the child's little hand with her fingertips.The only thing that can comfort her with a child in her arms is the surrounding mountains, and now Saber is in a desperate situation.She could no longer think about her child's safety while preparing for battle.

"It's dangerous here. Run away. Run in this direction, and you'll see a big castle. Someone will save you there—"

With a crunch, the child's back rattled, and the sobs turned into painful wailing.

Saber was dumbfounded, the small body in front of her burst into two halves.And what's ejected from the child's body is not red blood.

It was a group of jet-black snakes, with countless snakes circling together. No, that thing was covered with suckers the size of rain gills. It was by no means an ordinary thing like a group of snakes.Is it a squid? Or the tentacles of a strange squid-like creature.

The tentacles, which were as thick as Saber's wrist, instantly stretched out and wrapped around the silver armor, and began to tightly bind Saber's hands and feet.

There is not only one monster that was summoned from another world, but also surrounded by Saber with the flesh and blood of hostages.Countless tentacles protruded from the hostage wreckage scattered all over the place, and dozens of monsters surrounded Saber in an instant.
