Chapter 772: Hurt each other

 Because of such an accident, Duanmuhuai and his party had to choose to evacuate and return to the mage's mansion as their base.

“In other words, is there actually a daughter of Miss Irisviel in this world?”

Even Matthew was surprised by this.

“She’s my daughter from another world... right?”

Irisviel was also speechless. She had an extra daughter inexplicably, and she had a daughter with someone else. Although it was not herself, but herself from another world line, this still made Irisviel feel confused and didn't know what to do. Just do it.

“I didn’t expect you, Irisviel, to be so carefree. I will definitely be devoted to the Master and will not fall in love with other men!”

Medea, on the other hand, confidently made a declaration to Irisviel. Although the latter wanted to say something, she couldn't say anything - after all, even if she was herself in another timeline, she was still herself... ...What else can Irisviel say? She could only be depressed about why she in another world married a man she didn't know at all.

“This is not important. The problem is that the situation at the singularity this time is very complicated, so we must be prepared.”

 Duanmuhuai didn't care about these insignificant things. After all, it was another timeline, and it had nothing to do with him, so there was no need to care too much. In fact, after they arrived at this singularity, Duanmu Huai, Irisviel and others naturally rushed to the Great Holy Grail immediately. However, what surprised them was that this time the space to go to the Great Holy Grail was completely closed. . It's like a black box. According to Dr. Roman, the black box will not be opened unless the external conditions reach the appropriate node.

　　Hmm... In other words, this time there is no way to directly disintegrate the Great Holy Grail like before, but to kill other servants?

 For Duanmu Huai, this doesn't matter.

“First, let’s choose a target. Currently we know SABER, ARCHER, BERSERKER and…”

 “Who is Sakura’s servant?”

"I haven't heard her say it, but she hasn't come forward either. It seems like she's not the type to fight head-on. Maybe it's CASTER or ASSASSIN?"

 “Then the rest are RIDER and LANCER?”

“I thought it would be as easy as the fourth time to catch them all, but in the end there were only two who actually fought. It’s really boring.”

Duanmu Huai curled his lips as he spoke. When Duanmu Huai watched the battle between SABER and BERSERKER, he originally thought that other servants would also take the initiative to join the battlefield like the Fourth Holy Grail War. However, it turned out that everyone else Gou pressed forward, looking like he didn't want to show up at all. This is somewhat unpleasant for Duanmu Huai, after all, he doesn't like this kind of whack-a-mole-like action.

But now it seems I have no choice.

The locations of the first three can all be confirmed. The master of SABER lives in a large house, and ARCHER is naturally at the Tosaka family. As for Illyasviel, although she left with BERSERKER, Illyasviel I know that there is Einzbern's castle in the forest outside Fuyuki City, and it is also the seat of each generation of Einzbern Masters. She lived there during the Fourth War, so Illya is probably there now.

Sakura rented a B&B to live in - well, I don't know if it was a coincidence, but the B&B she rented was exactly where Duanmu Huai originally placed her during the Fourth Holy Grail War.

 The next step is to confirm the positions of the three masters, and then you can start taking action.

From Duanmu Huai's point of view, the situation is actually very simple. They come forward to kill the other servants, and then Sakura and her sister go to a duel. The winner gets the Holy Grail and opens the big hole. Then they go in to see the situation and eliminate the singularity. Can.

 Simple, convenient and fast.

But before that, the most troublesome thing is to know everyone’s position.

“Where is the next destination booked?”

Duanmuhuai looked at Medea, who nodded.

"At Ryudouji Temple! There is a barrier to exclude heroic spirits. You can only enter through the main gate. And I can feel that a lot of magic power is flowing into it from Fuyuki City. It is obvious that there is an evil magician I am using this method to enhance the power of my followers!”

 “Let’s start there.”

 Duanmu Huai made a decision and stood up.

"ready to go!"

Lyuudong Temple was completely silent late at night. As I walked up the long stairs, I felt no sound at all around me. But walking among them, Medea's expression became more and more sinister.

"This... is not an ordinary magic workshop, it is made from a position... MASTER, what we have to deal with this time is probably CASTER!"

 “CASTER, are you sure?”

"Well, I'm sure. I'm very familiar with this method of making temples. It should be a magician with the same origin as me. No matter who it is, he would do such an evil thing, which is absolutely unforgivable!"

As she spoke, Medea waved the staff in her hand vigorously.

While talking, the group of people had already arrived at the mountain gate, and just as they entered the mountain gate, a voice suddenly sounded.

“I really didn’t expect someone to walk in so arrogantly. It seems that I was really underestimated...”

　　　　——hoo——!”

As he spoke, suddenly, several beams of light roared down, and Medea hurriedly raised her staff.

 “Watch out, MASTER!”

In an instant, the barrier unfolded, and the whizzing light beams were blocked. As the dust dispersed, everyone looked up and saw a witch wrapped in robes, holding a staff, suspended in the air. You can tell by the look on her face that this is definitely not a magician - in other words, this is a Servant!

At the same time, the witch also saw Duanmuhuai and others clearly. When she saw Medea, she couldn't help but be startled.

"you………"

 “Evil magician, you dare to hurt innocent people, I will never forgive you!”

As she spoke, Medea also raised her staff. Soon, the same magic circle appeared behind her, turning into a beam of light and hitting the witch in the air. The latter also launched another attack. For a moment, purple magic beams passed by each other and collided with each other.

 “Wow…Miss Medea is so amazing…”

At this moment, Duanmu Huai and the others were standing aside, while Ma Xiu raised his shield and looked at the battlefield in front of him in surprise. Medea has always said that she is not very good at fighting, so Matthew thinks so too, but now it seems... you are still very good at fighting!

 “Miss Medea, I’m here to help too!”

At this time, Irisviel also stood up. She changed into a pure white dress in an instant, and then raised her hand. The dazzling silk thread turned into a falcon in Irisviel's hand, heading towards The witch in the sky flew away.

 “Woo————!”

Facing Irisviel's flanking attack, the witch was obviously unable to hold on. She hurriedly dodged the falcon controlled by Irisviel and tried to destroy it with her backhand. But at this time, Medea also hurriedly seized the opportunity and launched another offensive against the witch, forcing her to choose to avoid it - yes, it was too late.

　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　————!

Accompanied by the roar of an eagle, the falcon created by alchemy directly grabbed the witch with one claw. However, this witch obviously did not have the ability to fight in close combat. She screamed and fell from the sky. The ground hit the ground hard.

 Medea also approached her, holding her staff tightly and aiming at the enemy in front of her.

"That's it, evil witch, I'm going to kill you... huh?"

"Aha?"

"Why?"

Before Medea could finish her words, she screamed in surprise. In fact, not only Medea, but also Irisviel, Matthew and Duanmu Huai couldn't help but be surprised when they saw the scene in front of them. . The reason is very simple - at this moment, the witch has revealed her true face, with her lavender hair, beautiful face, and pointed ears like an elf... Hmm, she looks very similar to Medea... No, I should say , basically the same person.

It’s just that this Medea looks older.

 “Miss Medea, is this your sister?”

Matthew asked in confusion, while Medea looked confused.

“I do have a younger brother, but he’s not a girl either? Who are you? Why did you become like me?”

 “Ugh…do you even need to ask?”

At this moment, the witch also stood up and stared at Medea fiercely.

"I am you. I never expected that the Holy Grail War would have such a connection. You would actually be here, seeing such a young me, ah... it's really infuriating!"

 “You, what are you talking about?”

 “Do you still need to ask? Another me.”

Facing Medea’s surprised inquiry, the witch snorted coldly.

"You should know what will happen to you later, the fate of being betrayed by a man! That is my existence! Do you understand?"

"Wow………"

Duanmu Huai couldn't help but whistle, although he had long known that the heroic spirit was a record intercepted from the realm record tape, and was not entirely his own. For example, what he summoned was Medea as a girl, and the one in front of her should be the vicious witch who killed her brother and her own child in the legend of Medea later.

However, this is not the only thing that amazed everyone.

 “Looks like you’re in trouble, CASTER.”

A cold, steady voice sounded, and then everyone saw a man in a suit walking out from behind. He stared coldly at Duanmu Huai and others in front of him, as if he didn't care at all about the situation in front of him.

 “Souichiro-sama!”

Seeing the man's appearance, the witch hurriedly came to his side and stared at him - without asking, she knew that this man was the witch's master.

 Furthermore... Judging from the witch's appearance, it seems that the relationship between the two is unusual?

Irisviel silently glanced at the opposite side, then at Medea, then withdrew her gaze and took a step back.

Although she didn't say anything, Medea understood what she meant - you just said you were devoted to MASTER, and then you ended up hugging another man in front of MASTER?

 But that’s not me!

At this moment, Medea felt as depressed as if she had been hit by a boomerang. She finally understood how Irisviel felt just now. It was clearly not her, but she was clearly her, so this responsibility still fell on her?

This is simply too...too...too...Medea doesn't even know what to say...

So she also bit her silver teeth and pointed at the witch opposite.

“You actually chose such a man to be your master. It seems like your taste is not very good!”

 “Huh? What are you talking about, kid.”

Hearing Medea's angry rebuke, the witch suddenly became upset.

"You have no idea what kind of tenderness Soichiro-sama has given me. He accepted me when I had nowhere to go, so I will serve him with all my heart. That's right...you who have never suffered the pain of love will understand. What?"

 “What kind of suffering in love? Aren’t you the one who brought it on yourself?”

 But Medea obviously would not be defeated just like that.

"As a magician, you can't even distinguish Cupid's curse, and you fell for it stupidly. I really don't know how you thought you fell in love with Jason in the first place!"

“Isn’t it because you were young and ignorant that you were deceived?”

 At this point, the witch also jumped.

“At that time, I said I must find a prince charming, experience an adventure, and then get married, so I was deceived by Jason’s sweet words, stole my father’s golden sheepskin, and even ran away from home with that man...”

"I told you that it was Cupid's curse. I would not do such a thing. Even if my father is a mediocre idiot, a mediocre and useless person who only shows off the golden sheepskin, I still respect him very much. !”

　　　…………”

Hearing this, Duanmuhuai, Matthew and Irisviel all looked at Medea silently.

 How do you show respect in this?

"You are still talking about me, you are not much better, you have found such a man to be your master! Didn't you say you are looking for a good-looking man? Why are you with such a man who looks more fierce than Hercules? together?"

"MASTER is not like the kind of person you mentioned. MASTER is very strong and gentle. He also protects me and respects my will. That man over there must have been manipulated into a puppet by you in some way. It's a puppet, really. I lost my love because of a failed choice, so I use this method? I don't think this is love."

“Don’t you think you are scolding yourself? Prince Charming, true love, huh, it’s just an illusion of youth and ignorance, just drown yourself with your ideals!”

 “...What to do now? MASTER?”

At this moment, Matthew and Irisviel were also dumbfounded, especially Irisviel who was still relieved in her heart. Although she said that she married someone else and had children in that world, she was dead at least. If both parties met, It would be really miserable to have a quarrel in front of her... Looking at Medea who was quarreling with her now, she felt that her previous depression was not a big deal.

“…Just look at it, what else can you do? If you are quarreling with yourself, we can’t help you, right?”

Duanmuhuai spread his hands helplessly. What he summoned was the witch Medea. Opposite was the witch Medea. The witch Medea was indeed still young, but when she was summoned, she also read about herself. Legendary stories. Medea didn't care about this. As she just said, it was just her negligence that caused her to be cursed by Cupid. You must know that she was a witch who studied under Hecate, the goddess of the moon, and was also a witch in the temple. Sir, as long as she pays careful attention, she can definitely prevent this kind of curse.

So from the perspective of the witch Medea, the witch Medea is just one of her possible futures. She will not become that kind of dominating crazy woman. Wouldn't it be nice for everyone to live in harmony together? ?

But for the witch Medea, what she has in front of her is the dark history of the mistakes she made when she was young and ignorant, and she must eliminate them!

　So………

 “I will let you know how painful betrayal is, suffer death!”

 “I won’t become a crazy woman like you, watch the trick!”

 Sure enough, a fight broke out.

Duanmu Huai sighed silently, feeling tired.

"let's go."
