I'm Shenji, what are you doing?

Scathach fights Saber at the mountain gate.

Kariya stops Tokiomi on the mountainside.

Justisa sat at Liudong Temple and presided over the ceremony.

Emiya Kiritsugu, who sneaked in from the back mountain, asked Irisviel and Maiya to persuade him.

So the question is, where is the mastermind behind everything, the man who cheated by reading the script, Shinji Matou? What are you doing again?

The answer is simple, in heaven, watching a show.

Before the dust settles, no one can guarantee that they will have the last laugh. Therefore, a "firefighter" who can oversee the overall situation and prepare for emergencies is necessary. This is such a role that Shinji designed for himself.

The battle at Shanmen is evenly matched, and if the fight continues at this state, there will be no winner for another half hour.

In Ryudou Temple, Emiya Kiritsugu had already understood the situation and was making final inquiries - he held up the black mud flowing down the altar with both hands and experienced the essence of the Holy Grail firsthand.

He is such a man who is so persistent that he is almost crazy. If he is not allowed to see the facts clearly with his own eyes, his obsession will not be broken.

Shinji also believes that even the curse formed by the so-called "human evil" cannot pollute this man's spirit, because he is a "partner of justice"!

Finally, on the mountainside, the battle situation here is the most dangerous, and it is also the place that Shinji is most concerned about.

Compared with the duel between Scathach and Saber, the battle between Kariya and Tokiomi is not heroic, exciting, or even good-looking.

When the war first started, they looked like magicians. They used magic to attack and defend each other, and both of them also showed off very good magic costumes. However, after Kariya revealed his Ishtar gun and "smashed the floor", the battle began to take a strange turn.

Not only has the style of painting changed, but the pictures have also changed from ugly to ugly.

The setting - swaying trees, ugly.

The characters - Tokiomi with a bruised nose and swollen face, Kariya with crooked eyes and mouth, are still ugly.

What's even worse is the way the two of them fight. You punch me and I kick you back. They grapple with each other. It's just like a street fight between two low-life gangsters.

This kind of physical combat that was insulated from calmness and elegance was certainly not what Tokiomi wanted, but he had no choice. Kariya was like a mad dog, completely giving up his defense and just wanted to "bite" him.

No matter how Tokiomi punched, kicked or used the Bajiquan, Kariya didn't care at all. As long as he could hit Tokiomi once, it didn't matter if he withstood five or ten attacks.

Generally speaking, if the fight continued like this, even if Tokiomi's Bajiquan level was not high, Kariya wouldn't be able to last more than a few minutes.

But this is not the case.

Kariya's tenacity far exceeded Tokiomi's imagination. He withstood dozens of punches and kicks without falling, and continued to struggle with Tokiomi.

Gradually, Tokiomi felt a slight violation.

After so many punches and kicks, even a tiger should have been killed. How could Kariya, a gangster who had never practiced martial arts, continue to fight with no signs of stopping?

This is not something that can be explained simply by willpower. If the will can persist, the body should have reached its limit long ago.

Why?

After being distracted for a moment, Tokiomi received another punch in the face. The swollen cheek finally couldn't bear the load, and black bruises seeped out from the broken capillaries, soaking half of Tokiomi's face.

But this punch very close to the eye also allowed Tokiomi to find the answer.

There was a faint blue light on the inner side of Kariya's arm that was covered by his sportswear, accompanied by faint fluctuations in magic power.

Tokiomi had previously thought that Kariya had set up hidden pockets in his clothes to store magic props like him, and that the magic power fluctuations were leaked from the magic props.

But now, he was sure that the fluctuation of magic power did not come from any magic props, but from Kariya's body. It was this magic that strengthened Kariya's physical fitness, allowing him to fight against himself for such a long time. This is body strengthening magic!

"No, it's impossible! Why can you still use magic?"

No wonder Tokiomi was so surprised. Under such circumstances, even an experienced magician like him had no time to chant magic or use gems. Why could Kariya, a dabbler like him, do it?

Tokiomi's sudden roar made Kariya pause for a moment, then he rolled up his sleeves and rushed forward with an even more desperate attitude.

"Let me, a dabbler, teach you a lesson. Rune magic does not require chanting. As long as it is carved in advance and the magic power is injected when used, it will take effect immediately."

On the inside of Kariya's arm, the Matou family's exclusive magic seal shines with aqua-blue light. There is a circle of special runes engraved around the seal. This is what Kariya has to fight Tokiomi with an ordinary body. .

The magic attribute of the Matou family is "water", and the magic characteristics are "absorption and transformation". These two together form the core of the Matou family's magic, which is deeply imprinted in the Matou family's magic seal and passed down from generation to generation.

Using the magic seal as a medium and his own body as a carrier, Kariya used the alchemy taught by Yustisa to connect the runes granted by Scathach with the magic seal, evolving a unique form of magic.

There is no need to chant or prepare. As long as the magic power is provided for the magic seal, the physical fitness will be improved. This is the only achievement of Kariya's magic career for one year.

Kariya's words and the brilliance of the runes gave Tokiomi an even greater shock.

He did not expect that Kariya would be using the lost rune magic, nor did he expect that the half-destroyed rune magic would be so powerful. He even did not expect that Kariya would burn his own life in order to defeat him.

Yes, burn life.

Although Tokiomi didn't know the specific composition of the spell, he could tell that the spell mixed with magic seal and runes absorbed not only magic power, but also Kariya's life force. Every second that passed, Kariya's life force was absorbed. It will be reduced some.

"Are you crazy? Kariya, you are seeking death." Tokiomi scolded while resisting Kariya's fierce attack.

"Yeah, I'm crazy, I've been crazy since that day."

From the day Aoi married you, from the day you sent Sakura home, I vowed to beat you up!

"Come on, Tokiomi, let's see who falls first, or I run out of life first."

The blue light released by the magic seal covered Yan Ye's whole body. It was all his magic power, and it was the brilliance of his life.

"Oh oh oh--"

Kariya roared hysterically, and after taking away Tokiomi's cane, he once again burst out with powerful power. This once defeated dog turned into a vicious dog that pounced on food, hugging Tokiomi's body with his "eight big open elbows" and pressing him to the ground.

Tokiomi struggled hard, hitting his knees and pushing his elbows, constantly causing damage to Kariya, but Kariya wouldn't let go.

Not only did he not let go, but he also deliberately stopped enduring the congestion in his lungs and the nausea in his stomach, and saliva and congestion sprayed Tokiomi's face.

The spurting vomit deprived Tokiomi of his last grace and calmness, and also aroused Tokiomi's masculine nature. He grabbed Kariya's shirt with his backhand, and the two of them rolled down the hillside together.

PS: Kariya Jun is a man, a true man of iron and blood, who can stand on a horse with both arms. Ahem, sorry, please forget this sentence, in short, Kariya is a real man in this fight.
