I'm Shenji, what are you doing?

Gold was criticized early on, mainly because of his arrogance. After developing the android battery system and getting the Bodhi leaves stained with dragon's blood, this guy started to think that I am the best in the world and no one takes him seriously.

He takes it for granted that he is the master of this Holy Grail War, and everyone should act according to his will. The so-called servants of the hero are just puppets and tools, and they should not have any resistance to him. As for the Black Saber, Siegfried's obedience made him swell to the point of being mentally disabled.

He blindly believed that Siegfried was the strongest, and no servant should be Siegfried's opponent. If he left it alone and allowed this emotion to flourish, he would give random directions in the subsequent duel with the Red Rider. If Siegfried refuses the order because it is unreasonable, he will become angry and think that Siegfried cannot defeat his opponent and does not obey his orders because he has different intentions towards him, so he directly uses the command spell to force Siegfried to use the treasure. Tool.

At that time, Gold had completely forgotten the principle of keeping his real name secret. If Danik hadn't stopped him, Siegfried's real name would have been known to the red side. He was so insane.

As a member of Black and a temporary companion, Shenji didn't want to see this guy continue to be stupid, nor did he want to see Fei Ge leave the game so soon. He had to wake up Gold.

As for killing Gold, it was not an option for Shinji from the beginning. Let’s not talk about whether he can be killed under Siegfried’s protection, nor whether he will be suspected by Darnik and others after killing him. Gold’s ability alone cannot let him die.

Although he doesn't want to admit it, at this point in time, Gold is Black's most important master, bar none.

Black’s trump card is a huge source of magic power. He designs and manages the android battery system; Black’s low-level soldiers and combat androids are manufactured by him; and even the maids, handymen and other logistics support personnel of Milenia City. Most of them are artificial humans created by him.

Without him, Black's life would not be as miserable as usual - in this regard, this guy does have two tricks up his sleeve.

Trying to recall the role of Gold, Shenji finally calmed down his urge to hit someone, and instead he hit him with a freezing rune.

"Assassin, what are you doing!" Gold jumped to his feet after being humiliated.

"Let you calm down and don't let your impulse burn your brain."

"you--!"

Shinji's face said "I'm doing this for your own good", which made Gold start looking at command spells again for comfort.

"Don't look at it. If you look at it, it's only three strokes. It won't become more."

"It has nothing to do with you!" Gold, who was furious, obviously did not hear Shenji's true meaning.

Shenji was not in a hurry and continued: "How could it be irrelevant? This is a precious non-renewable resource. Every stroke is used and every stroke is lost. It would be a pity if it was wasted on impulse."

The aggravated "one stroke less" and "waste" finally struck Gold.

"What do you mean?"

"It's nothing, I just saw you clenching your fists and staring at the Command Seals just now, I'm afraid you won't be able to think straight and use the Command Seals to give meaningless orders."

"Hmph, how could I do such a thing."

Gold turned his head away from looking at Shenji's half-smiling face.

"It's not the best. It's a rare opportunity. Let me remind you a few words. It's true that the servant is dependent on the master, but the servant is not a puppet. He has strong power and his own will. It is precisely because of this that there is The constraints of the command spell."

"The use of the command spell is directly related to the quality of the master-slave relationship. When the command spell matches the will of the follower, huge power will burst out. When the command spell goes against the will of the follower, the opposite is true. If the willpower is strong enough, It is not impossible for a Servant to resist the effect of the Command Spell. Even if the Command Spell really distorts the Servant's will, it will also affect the relationship between the Master and the Servant."

"Maybe you think this is nothing, but have you ever thought about it. When the three-stroke command spell is used up, what else can you use to restrain the servants who are five or ten times more powerful than you? Can you cancel the contract and cut off the source of magic power? Even so, the servant can exist for a few hours to a few days, right?"

Shenji's voice became colder and colder, and Gold's heart became colder and colder.

"Rejoice, Fatty. Saber is a person with a noble character. He will not do anything bad to you. If it were someone with a bad character, you might have died. I'm not trying to scare you. To be honest, I think I have a pretty good temper." Yes, I don’t have much contact with you, but I have wanted to whip you several times.”

"Remember my words, if you want to exert your greatest power, master and slave must reach a consensus. Otherwise, even the best job, Saber, the strongest hero, will not end well. That's it, don't you listen? you."

After saying that, Shenji stopped talking to Gold and focused all his attention on the sword and gun battle. The higher the strength, the more rewarding it is to watch this kind of peak duel. If these gains can be fully digested, Shinji's fighting skills can be further improved.

The roaring wind swept up, and the red lancer shot out like a cannonball.

The black saber cuts through the atmosphere and wields the golden sword that splits the darkness.

The achievements of both sides are entangled like a spiral and fleeting like sparks. The two men, who are at the pinnacle of sword and spear skills, compete for supremacy.

In terms of excellence in skills, Red Lancer has the upper hand. In terms of physical toughness, Black Saber is even better. Having said that, in terms of overall strength, the two sides are almost equal. If you relax even for a moment, your heart will be pierced and your head will be gouged out.

If one could barely find a superiority, it would be the existence of Master Gold. He can use healing magic to continuously repair Black Saber's damage. However, Lancer's self-healing power is also quite amazing. Even though the master is not here, there seems to be a strong connection between them. The magic he was given also held considerable weight.

The sound of steel produced by the collision was about to exceed 10,000.

More than a thousand minor wounds were repaired immediately.

After a while, both parties stopped their hands unconsciously. Not out of fatigue. These two rare heroes would not be exhausted even if they fought for three days and three nights.

However, only time can do nothing. The sky had changed from complete darkness to a dull dark blue.

Yes, several hours had passed since the fighting began. Neither party used their Noble Phantasm, and they couldn't even find a chance to release their true names.

"If this continues, we will fight until dawn. I don't care, but what about you? Your master seems a little impatient."

"..."

Saber finally put away her sword wordlessly. Gold seemed to want to open his mouth to say something, but no words came out. The conflicting vindictiveness between the two was too strong, and he instinctively understood that this was not a world where outsiders could interfere.

Afterwards, the Black Saber, who was forbidden to speak by her Master, gave up her hesitation and spoke. It was also this time that Gold's deep-rooted understanding that his followers were puppets was slightly shaken.

"I hope I can really fight with you next time."

This sentence contained extraordinary and ardent expectations, which Red Lancer Karna did not know.

He didn't know what was hidden inside the heroic spirit Siegfried's magnificent biography. Even so, he still admired those words. The red lancer nodded slightly and praised the swordsman's words. If you ask why, it’s because this is also the hidden wish in Lancer’s heart.

It's not something exaggerated like a promise or an oath. The two regard each other as objects that should be eliminated and opponents that should be fought. That's why there's that common feeling.

"Ah, my luck is so good. Black Saber, I sincerely thank you from the bottom of my heart for being lucky enough to face you in the first battle."

This is the appreciation that Red Lancer deserves without exaggeration. Therein lies the bond of being a warrior. "I hope it is my sword and my gun that will knock you down." This dream is like that of an innocent boy.

"Well, farewell, Black Saber."

"..."

A silent greeting. In the blink of an eye, the Red Lancer's body turned into a spirit body and disappeared.

At the same time, the sky was tinted with the thin purple color that heralded dawn.

PS: So the Noble Phantasm like Erye, which does not require the liberation of the true name, is convenient, just throw it away.
