Chapter 125: The Battle of Fate
My name is Elijah,
"Mom and Dad" are quite capable of fighting......

"It's you again!"
Looking at Alice Phil, who instantly summoned three white giant eagles in front of her, "Melti of Hundred Appearances" had a headache.
As the Assassin incarnation with the highest magic attributes, Melti can disguise herself as Caster to a certain extent, and Alice Phil seems to believe it, but she even has to test it?
- Did the blood stain on the right side of your dress wash off?
- It took a bit of work, and the other is the left half.
Look, what a perfect response, but who would have thought that the place where the Caster was stained red with blood was in the back?
The last time she was killed by Caster by unknown means, she couldn't see what the girl was because she was too far away, and she was tricked out by the artificial man of the Einzberen family.
Sou! Whew-
Melty dodged the pounce of the two white eagles in confusion and reached for the dagger with her backhand.
As the Assassin with the highest magic power, she can resist magic attacks to a large extent, and with the ability to change others, it can be said that the sneak attack of the average Master can be said to be nine out of ten.
However, Alice Field's attacks are not conventional magic methods, but combine the "Infused Mithril Filigree" created by alchemy into various forms to attack and defend, these "forms" deal physical damage rather than magic damage, and Melti's traits are completely ineffective.
And, even if you want to fight back-
The Assassin took advantage of a "white eagle" to swoop into the air and swung a dagger at it, only to turn the white eagle into a chaotic thread and try to tie her hand in turn, but fortunately was narrowly avoided at the last moment.
The giant eagle, which she named the "White Stork Knight", was not so powerful and agile when it first started the war, and could only rely on its large size to spread its wings to protect specific locations, but now it seems to be more handy...... Melti was attacked by two giant eagles at the same time, and had to choose to temporarily manifest herself to dodge.
Those three stupid big guys didn't say anything to help—gone?
Forced to materialize, Melti angrily glanced at Alice Phil, who had reclaimed the silver eagle, and turned around and hurried to the previously planned ambush circle for help, only to find that it was empty, even Ryunosuke and Emir had disappeared.
Yes...... Was it really transferred by the Master? The Assassin sighed that their actions of confrontation were completely inconsistent with Yan Feng Qili's style all along, and when the Ancient King and the King of Conquest fought, if he was going to do something secretly, he would definitely recruit the Assassins, and he would not let the most important Amir be so close to the battlefield.
However, since he didn't give himself instructions, it means that he tacitly allowed himself to continue his previous actions, but he won't give any support other than magic.
That's enough, Melti of Hundred Looks thinks about it and lets her appearance begin to change, there is no point in continuing to pretend to be Caster, although they are related by blood, the times are too far away, it is better to continue to use Emiya Kiritsugu's appearance, even if she is recognized, she will have to hesitate if she wants to do it, and that is the opportunity.
"Ellie! Stay away from her! She's not Lin Hao! After making up her mind, Melti turned into Kiritsugu and hurried from another direction, as for the question of whether Lin Hao was herself or not, Melti hadn't thought about it yet.
Melti was so sure that she imitated the voice and tone of Kiritsugu Emiya perfectly, and even if Alice Fell had any doubts, she would have to ask tentatively, and then she could-
After turning the tree, the large area floating in the air, the silver glittering Mithril filigree weapon interrupted the Assassin's thinking about the "next plan", such a random discarding of the treasure attack, she had seen Gilgamesh cast it several times, although she had thought about how strong those weapons would be if they were given to the Assassin army, but she only dared to think about it.
Alice Phil waved her arm without hesitation, and dozens of Mithril filaments of weapons flew in at once, poking the Assassin, who maintained Kiritsugu's appearance, into a hedgehog.
"Why, what......" The Assassin did not continue the fight, and was still able to speak at this point because Alice Phil had dispersed her power and was not enough to kill her directly.
"Because, Kiritsugu only spoke before the battle began, and if it was really Kiritsugu just now, he should have shot directly." Alice Phil was recovering the Mithril filament, which had no blood on it at all, and replied.
Hmph, I see, next time, if there is a next time...... Melti, who was not injured enough to continue speaking, turned into a drifting point of light and disappeared.

[Sanctuary Technique] is a magic technique commonly used by Yan Feng Qili as a substitute - or is it called divine magic? It can form a "force field" that isolates the caster from the current world, and has no influence on each other, which can be said to be the best choice to avoid triggering traps when escaping or sneaking in, but it does not make the person in the force field invisible, so the range of applications is limited.
However, when moving through a forest where magic traps can be everywhere, this effect is just right, and the caster has no footsteps or the sound of grinding through the woods, and although the side effect is that the view is blurry from the inside out, it can also enhance the display of certain elements, such as human body temperature and mana.
If a person appears in front of Qi Li, he will first see the red outline of the person symbolizing body temperature, as well as the surrounding seven-colored halos that are different according to the magic attributes, and most importantly, this kind of probing will be more conspicuous if it is covered by magic.
So, as soon as Emiya Kiritsugu appeared in front of him, he would know as soon as possible.
[Tactical Stealth] is the standard action that Emiya Kiritsugu will use in most operations, it is made of ordinary stealth actions combined with his own [Inherent Time Control], which can achieve the effect of "turning a blind eye", even if it is witnessed at a close distance, it will only be ignored like a pebble on the side of the road.
Specifically, through the miniature enchantment [Inherent Time Control] inside the body, all of his breathing, heartbeat, and body temperature are blocked, and if he is detected by magic, he will only conclude that he is a dead person or a sculpture, and soon after this conclusion is reached, the magician will also become a dead person.
Although he only conceals his lack of intelligence, his stealth actions allow him to hide in the blind spot of ordinary people's eyes at all times, and clearly perceive any wind and grass in the vicinity, as long as the enemy still needs to walk, he will inevitably be discovered.
Therefore, he will definitely find the other party one step ahead of Yan Feng Qili.
————
Yan Feng Qili and Emiya Kiritsugu passed by.
It was a forest path divided into upper and lower roads due to the topography, and Kiritsu walked on the same road, silently engaged in a lot of reconnaissance and counter-reconnaissance battles with each other on the magic level, but they both returned in vain because they did not meet the condition of "direct vision".
If both of them had been careless, this miss would have become a reality, but they were both sharp and attentive enough due to their respective identities before they entered the war.
The cost of Sanctuary/Inherent Time Domination has been increased by 10% in the previous seconds, and has now recovered.
Aware of this fact, both of them stopped at the same time and turned around, and although there were patches of trees that completely obscured their vision, both Kirishi and Kiritsugu Enomiya confirmed that their opponents were in that direction.
After confirming the existence of the opponent, it is natural to attack, and compared to Kirei, who has no long-range ability, Kiritsugu first untied the weapon he was carrying.
According to the intelligence, the black-clad priest's vestment is effective against bullets, and its protection is not magical, so unless the "Origin Projectile" hits the body directly or the large magical entity he uses, the effect of destroying the magic circuit will not be effective against him.
Although Kiritsugu also has some experience in hand-to-hand combat, he spends most of his time using firearms, and if he allows a former walker who is good at hand-to-hand combat to get close to him, he may be killed in an instant, so preventing him from approaching quickly in this battle is the key, Kiritsugu thought as he threw a hand/grenade at the expected direction.
Qi Li was in the force field of the Sanctuary Technique, and as he watched the location of the trees that was separated by the trees and the expected presence of someone suddenly appeared, confirming that his instincts were correct, and in the next moment, he released the Sanctuary Jutsu and rushed towards the opponent's position, and the acceleration generated by the Consumption Spell was even enough for him to walk on the nearly vertical tree trunk.
————
"Boom—"
The deliberately strengthened hand/thunder destroyed the last tree between the two rivals, and as it crashed down, the priest and the magician-killer standing on the trunk saw each other.
Not far enough, Qili slammed deep footprints on the trunk of the tree, and with the sound of the tree bursting, he volleyed down to Kiritsugu below.
Without hesitation, Kiritsugu pulled out a short machine gun with a deliberately expanded magazine and rained down a torrent of 9mm bullets at Kiri while continuing to retreat to distance himself.
The strengthened vestments can naturally resist this level of attack, but they can't eliminate the kinetic impact they bring, if they are allowed to hit or dodge, even if there is no damage, they will be pulled away again, Qili immediately released the black button, and killed the rain of bullets in front of him, not "blocking" or "parrying", but only carrying out the output of only dialing them to the "deflected" state, so that the intention of this rain of bullets to open the distance was completely defeated.
[Inherent Time Domination: Double Speed]!
"Phew! Bang! ”
Before the black-clad priest burst into the melee range, Kiritsu did not hesitate to accelerate himself and jump back, and took out two Contenders aimed at him and pulled the trigger, this initial speed is enough to compare to the modified gun bullet of the stridecker, which is by no means just by relying on the black keys in the opponent's hand, if he wants to resist hard, the distance is-
Poof.
Pitch-black wings appeared in front of the priest, and the powerful bullet disappeared silently as it struck it, and he himself accelerated further to the magician-killer.
Seeing that Kiritsugu seemed to be stunned by the fact that he could fly, in order to avoid the possibility that his coat would also be strengthened, Yan Feng Qili did not hesitate to raise his leg and give him a vicious side kick to the head.
Rumble!
When Kiritsugu raised his twin guns to shoot, another hand/mine that was thrown between the two exploded in time, pushing both of them in mid-air several meters away at the same time.
The battle was halted, and both sides had an idea of the enemy's methods, and the fallen and broken trees around them proved the ferocity of the attack and defense in a matter of seconds.
Soon, the second round will begin.
