Chapter 17: Face Off

After defeating the king of heroes and coming to rescue Jeanne's group, the MC is with Jeanne standing face to face with Kirei.

"Fufufu, how are you going to make me pay for my sins?"

"How? Simply, die."

"Is that so straightforward! You seem to be the kind of person who's quite ruthless, isn't it?"

"Maybe so."

"Hey Master, beware he has a strange power that only Servants can see."

Before letting her Master do the trick, she informed him of Kirei's Stand power.

"Strange power?."

"I don't know what it is, but it's so dangerous it almost killed us."

"That's right! If you don't come in time, I don't know what will happen to us."

Rin struggled to get up while still on the dragon's back, and so did Shirou.

"Really!."

At the same time Rider appeared right next to Kirei.

"Oh you're here, Rider."

A silhouette of a woman with leg-length light purple hair, a black outfit showing her legs with red markings, and a hooded female with another mark on the front and extending to the bottom. The hands on the inside are quite broken, holding a scythe.

"Is that Rider? Could she have been transformed like Lancer?"

Both Rin and Shirou were surprised by Rider's new appearance, and I was bored with staring at her face and thighs.

"Fufufu, how can you be so surprised! I know I'm pretty so there's no need to look at me like that, especially the one staring at me that gold armor guy."

The group looked at the dark with eyes like looking at a pervert.

"What are you looking at me, boys are like that!"

Regardless of what I say, they just look at me and say.

"Hentai."

"TSK ignore you guys."

I was just helpless and didn't want to say anything more so I ignored it, while Kirei's side was asking loudly why Rider had come here.

"Hey, are you here, Rider?"

"Master ordered me to come here, since the situation seems serious, I came here to take care of it."

"Is that so! It's also good to have more manpower."

"That's right."

"If that's the case, then we-"

Then suddenly a *PAP* sound came from Kirei's chest, right there a hand went through his body and was holding a white heart, and the one who did it was Rider.

"What are you doing, Rider?"

"I'm just following the Master's orders."

"What!."

He suddenly exclaimed, even us.

"Hey hey, aren't you accomplices?"

Shirou shouted at Rider's sudden action, everyone else does, but I'm used to watching many movies, anime and manga because I'm used to situations like this so I'm not too surprised.

"Well it looks like there's a Drama."

"Farewell pastor."

After saying that, she used her eyes to petrify him, and then she destroyed it, causing the blood from it to splatter and stick to her face, and then she satisfied the blood on her face.

"Fufufu! Complete the quest."

As she was about to leave, a barrage of arrows hit her, but she dodged just in time not far from Artoria's group.

"How's it going, Master?"

"Well, as you can see, that's quite advantageous."

"Really!."

At the same time, Acher was still pointing her arrow at Rider, preventing her from leaving.

"You won't be able to get out of here, Rider."

"TSK."

Rider clicked his tongue in annoyance, and Rin was asking about Acher's condition after fighting Lancer.

"Hey Acher, did you and the two Sabers deal with Lancer and Berserker?"

"Yeah even though it's a bit difficult, but given the current situation we seem to have the upper hand, now just need to find Rider's Master who's behind it all."

"Maybe no?."

A chilling voice appeared from the depths of the cave, and from within Rider's Master appeared.

"Revealed already!"

"Master why did you come out here? It would be dangerous if you came out here!"

"It's okay, with my power at least a Lord can kill me."

A man between the ages of 25-30 stood right next to Rider,

He has short orange hair, blue eyes, wears a purple-black outfit with some armor, and has a white cape around her neck.

"So this is the masquerade of the mastermind?"

Shirou stared at him with murderous intent, and so did Acher and Rin.

"Oh, why are you all so eager to kill? Just enjoy yourselves because in a little while I'll let you all die too, so just enjoy the last moment."

"We don't think so."

I immediately responded to his words, and he passed me and he looked surprised.

"What!? That armor is Kamen Rider Ex-aid's Hyper Mutenki! And Dragranzer too, I remember that Carry took it from them! Why do you have it?"

"Unfortunately, I can't answer that."

He seemed quite annoyed but quickly regained his composure.

"Okay I'll answer you later, I'm busy now, hey Rider give me your heart."

"Yes."

"Don't you dare!."

Acher didn't let Rider give him the other heart, he quickly fired his strongest arrow to finish them both off.

"Stupid."

He raised his hand and his nose was blocked by an incoming Magic Spring Rainbow and exploded.

"What!?."

Everyone suddenly exclaimed, and so did I, but the difference was that I realized what he just shot was.

"Isn't that a Magic Spring Rainbow toy??."

"Yes, like you said it's a toy."

"Hey Master, is that powerful thing just a toy?"

Artoria asked me incredulously.

"Is it magical power? Only it can do that."

Rin deduces his strength, but he hears it and says it again.

"It's not magic, but my Stand ability."

"Stand is something similar to that of Kirei's?"

"It's essentially the same, but our abilities are different, but since I don't have time to talk about it now, Rider gives it to me."

"Yes."

After saying that, Rider gave him the white heart she took back from Kirei, and after taking it he sent it to his dungeon and absorbed it.

"If you want to hide from me then go deep into this cave! Me and Rider will be waiting for you! Especially you who wear the Hyper Mutenki armor."

Then he disappeared along with Rider.

"Well, it looks like I've been pinned by him."

"Who told you to live so wrong?"

Jeanne teased me, and Artoria nodded in agreement.

"You two have wronged me again!"

"That's the truth you should accept Master, but what is this dragon Master, where did it come from?"

Jeanne asked while looking at the dragon with interest, and so did Artoria, even though she didn't show it.

"I don't know either, just know it's the same system as the armor."

While we were still talking, Rin who was thinking about how to defeat him angrily spoke up.

"Hey you three stop talking there, now we should go in there and defeat him, or else I don't know what will happen, especially Sakura and Illy are in his hands."

Rin scolded us for not worrying about fighting but talking, and we kept quiet and prepared for the battle with the BOSS here.

"Okay, let's go in."

Then we all went deep into the cave to face him, while Saber reminded us to be careful.

"Be careful all of you, maybe it'll be forever and a trap or something, so be careful."

"Yes, we know."

After a while, we also got there.

"Okay everyone ready."

And when we entered the scene we saw the scene that made us wince, a black freak with worm-like spirals, wrapped inside a transparent cocoon and contained a sphere. black hovering over it.

"Why do you look so disgusting!?"

I couldn't help but be surprised and annoyed when I saw it.

"Is this the Angra Manyu that Paradox asked me to destroy? It's really disgusting and disgusting I have to kill it as quickly as possible, before it spawns."

While I was still thinking, Rin and Shirou's group were looking at the bottom of it, there were two female silhouettes hanging from it.

"Sakura, Ilya!!"

The whole group of them shouted at the same time when they saw that scene.

*Bop, Pop, Pop.*

There was a clapping sound throughout the cave, and the Boss and Rider appeared to greet us.

"Welcome to the way heroes have come here and are present in large numbers, now before entering the battle, I would like to explain a little bit about this work."

Seeing that relaxed attitude and the words "work", and after witnessing the sight of Sakura and Ilya being suspended, Shirou became indignant and shouted.

"You dare say this scene is a work? You bastard!!"

"Shirou..."

Saber suddenly looked at Shirou, who was angry, and Acher didn't say anything but just stared at him.

"Emiya kun I understand your feelings, but you should hold back for now."

He gradually calmed down.

"Thank you for reminding me Tousaka."

"I always say this is Angra Manyu the demon of humanity, and you will be its two vessels and both will grant our wishes at the same time."

"You bastard, how dare you!!"

While the four of Shirou's party were angry, I turned to Jeanne and Artoria to ask them both about this incident.

"What do you two think about this?"

"I don't really care what he's trying to do with that weird thing, but it's unacceptable for him to use the other two for his own purposes."

"And I've been mad at him ever since, now I just want to give him a smack."

Both of them said their thoughts in turn, and when I heard that, I stepped forward.

"Okay then, let's get started, and give him a match for the rest of his life."

Then the whole group answered in unison.

"Yes come on!!"

Seeing that he and Rider laughed and also entered a battle stance.

"Even if you outnumber me, don't think that you can defeat us."

She laughed and danced with the scythe, when she finished dancing she immediately took a pose like a predatory animal, and he cast a spell or called a summoning name or something.

"Foul Legacy: Raging Tide."

From the palm of his hand appeared water from the void and formed two identical water swords and an inverted chin.

"Fine! If you want to fight me I will accept and my name is Ajax a warrior of the planting team."
