Chapter 234 : Assassin

Kiritsugu Emiya was ready to take the shot. He was already hiding with his sniper to take out the master of Lancer. But unfortunately for Orion, he was currently under Kiritsugu's radar.

"Maiya, is that child the master of Lancer ?" Emiya asked.

(I will use Emiya here as this is just easier to write and remember.) 

"There is no information about Lancer's master currently. It's mostly possible that he is one of the two mages who the Grail chose outside of the Noble families." Maiya said with uncertainty. 

Emiya changed the scope from thermal vision to zoom. He only saw a boy around 16 with a buff build. Though his instincts were telling him that he was not that old. It was his build which was making him look older. 

Emiya looked at the situation and contemplated his next action. From such a distance, he can't see sense any kind of magic coming out of that boy. And though his right hand was clear, devoid of any command seals. His left hand was covered with bandages for him to be fully be sure.

Now when it comes to a member of a noble family then the master will never show himself like this in the open. But the boy clearly is not from a noble family. It's understandable that he will make rookie mistakes like this. 

'There is a 70% chance that he is Lancer's master.' Emiya ponder.

In fact, this was the exact thing that both Saber and Iris were confused about upon not sensing any magic from Orion, thanks to his excellent control over his magic, and Lancer himself not recognizing him they believed that Orion was nothing important.

Orion was feeling that someone was watching over him. He tried to spread his law of presence to find that peeper but the range was still not enough. Using Law requires really good control over once magic. So even if he is just off by 9% or 10% in his magical control, it became really hard for him to spread his Law in the long range or to maintain it. 

Pursing their lips up not finding anything and yet feeling the sense of danger, he frowns. 

He closes his eyes, focusing all of his concentration on infinity. He felt the magic was getting back to his control. But it just wasn't enough yet to pull off infinity like he usually does. 

He even gave up the live superhero fight happening between Lancer and Saber. 

But then suddenly he senses something happening. Something coming. 

Boom... 

Orion's sensitive ears heard a sound and his body instinctively moved. A projectile was coming at him from a distance at a very fast speed. But Orion senses it. 

Orion decided to pull a Maki here and extend his hand to grab the bullet mid-air with his hands with the help of his infinity. 

"DHOOH" 

A muffled sound came from Orion's direction, making others look at him. Saber was already down by one hand due to Lancer's cunning and when this sound came both snapped at Orion. 

In his hand, Orion was holding a long sniper bullet and a tick mark on his forehead. 

.

.

.

Others seeing this were surprised. Emiya more than anyone. 

Seeing the boy grab the bullet with his hand was the last thing he was expecting. 

'There is no way that boy is normal. Doesn't look like a mage though. Maybe a servant !' he pondered.

Maiya who was also keeping her eye on Orion was stunned with a face of disbelief.

Saber, Iris and Lancer all look at Orion's direction. They first thought that it was some sort of attack, but when they saw the pissed-off look of Orion and his grumbling while holding a sniper bullet in his hand. They had no idea what to think anymore. 

Upon seeing that there was a sniper here, Saber immediately retreated back to Iris to protect the woman while Lancer too got cautious. 

.

.

.

"Fuck. I knew something was off. But a sniper. Come here, you bastard." Orion shouted as his magic roared out. He was now angry. He knew that something was wrong with instincts alone but hell. A fucking sniper. 

He extended his hand in the direction of where the bullet came from and felt his magic spreading. 

Emiya who was already planning to move out from there suddenly felt a pressure engulfing him. 

"Erk." He groaned in pain as his muscles and bones started to compress. 

Orion once felt that he had a good grab of the rat, snapping his hand towards himself, and virtually at the same time Emiya on his side lift up and like getting sucked into a black hole, he flew towards Orion from his place. 

"Haaa" Orion shouted, anger clear on his face as he used blue to bring that rat in front of his face to face. 

No not exactly face to face as he just pulls the man towards him with his right hand and makes a fist with his left. 

"GO FUCK YOURSELF," shouted Orion to others amazement who were there. But almost everyone notices the powerful magical fluctuation from Orion. Getting on their guard. But what surprised them the most was the man suddenly flying towards him and Orion punched him right in the face. 

"BOOM" 

The punch was audible to everyone as one punch was enough to break Emiya's jaw, completely putting him unconscious. And that's when Orion held back and didn't go for the kill. Otherwise, he just had to increase the power of the pull and crash the man into a wall or a container behind him.
