"It's very simple. How about you and Saber become my heroes?”
The Witch tried to persuade Luo Men, and the thread that bound Saber tightened even more.
Since Saber was being held hostage, he couldn't act rashly. However, Luo Men still sneered at her words.
What a joke, Caster's real name was Media. It was said that she had dismembered her younger brother and killed her two sons. Then, she boiled the corpse into poison and let her husband and love rival drink it. He was definitely not someone she could trust.
Just like how Roman would never abandon Saber, he could not cancel his contract with Ling. Otherwise, he would have no meaning in this world.
Luo Men calmed down and said,
"Stop joking, witch. My master is a young and beautiful female high school student. How can I not want her and exchange her for an old woman in her forties?”
"How rude! 'I'm not even thirty yet. Tsk, don't you care if Saber lives or dies?”
Caster subconsciously lost his temper at the mention of his age, but she quickly reacted and unhappily placed her lightning-shaped short sword on Saber's neck.
Luo Men shrugged and said coldly,
"Please do as you please."
"Oh? Aren't you working with Saber?”
"Don't think that I don't know anything. Your relic can break the contract with the Heroic Spirit, so you won't kill Saber. Instead, you want to turn her into your Heroic Spirit, right? If you do that, I will kill you and bring Saber back. If you kill Saber, I will mercilessly smash you and that man into pieces.”
Luo Men's tone didn't have any room for politeness, it was extremely cold.
Just like how it was impossible to compromise with terrorists, it would be hopeless if he gave in to this witch. Luo Men took a step forward and continued,"
"Don't get me wrong, Caster. Saber was indeed a hostage, but he didn't have that much of a binding force on me. Or do you have the confidence to survive from my hands?”
"…Tsk, cunning brat…Stop, or I will really kill this little girl.”
Caster smacked his lips in frustration. At the same time, Roman stopped his footsteps and stopped forcing her.
If she was forced into a corner, she might really kill Saber and use teleportation to escape. That was why Luo Men wanted to stabilize the situation and put himself on an equal footing with her.
"…Lei Mei, are you done?"
Wait a little longer. If that witch didn't find traces of magic power, it wouldn't be easy to break through the barrier.
Leimei sounded very serious. She was currently focused on breaking through Caster's barrier, and it was without her noticing. Thus, Luo Men had to continue distracting her.
At this moment, a golden meteor rose into the sky from the stone steps of Liudong Temple.
===================================================
Elsewhere, Ling and Shiro were waiting on the street a hundred meters away from Liudong Temple.
Ling had already noticed that something was not quite right in Liudong Temple. She had also felt it when Luo Men had activated the precious artifact, but after that, it was as if the battle had ended and there was no movement at all.
Neither Roman nor Saber returned. Sitting on the bench, Ling crossed his arms and tapped his index finger while Shiro paced back and forth impatiently.
After a while, Shi Lang could not help but say,
"Tozaka, let's go take a look as well, shall we?”
"Emiya-san, you should know that after entering Yanagi Toji, you will be in Caster's territory. Putting me aside, you're just a rookie. You stepped into the magician's workshop and you want to come out alive?”
Lin's sarcastic words made Shiro shut his mouth. But speaking in such a sharp tone meant that she was also very anxious.
- Seriously, what are you doing, Roman! Didn't I tell you to retreat immediately if the situation turns bad? Baka! Baka! Baka! Big idiot!
As she scolded Luo Men in her heart, she even considered using a command spell to summon him back.
At that moment, the surveillance magic that Ling had set up at the entrance of Willow Cave Temple sounded an alarm. It would only be activated when someone came out from inside.
Ling and Shiro hurried over. After waiting in the corner for a while, the people who crawled out of the stone steps were beyond their imagination.
"--Kirito Shinji?!"
" Ah!" Ling shouted out in anger and surprise. He then rushed forward and kicked him over.
The guy with the seaweed hair said,"Eh?!" She screamed and crawled on all fours for a while before hugging her head tightly.
"It wasn't me, it wasn't me! I didn't want to go this far!"
"What are you talking about? Why are you here, by the way? Wait, so you're Caster's Master?!”
Ling immediately thought of the witch in the temple. However, Shinji shook his head in panic.
"No, no, no, no! I have nothing to do with that witch! I only gave Rider a command curse to kill that man no matter what! Who asked her to meet someone else's heroic spirit behind my back and even made me destroy two orders to force her to say it!”
Shinji seemed to be scared out of his wits and said all kinds of nonsense.
From his fragmented words, Ling quickly sorted out his thoughts.
Ling already knew that Roman had met Rider at school this morning, but he said that Rider was only here on orders to meet other heroic spirits.
However, according to Shinji Makirito, this matter did not seem to have anything to do with him, and he even used a command spell to order Rider to tell him everything.
Furthermore, Makitsuki Shinji also knew that Romain had turned from a human into a Heroic Spirit. After all, this guy had met Romain once before the Holy Grail War.
This guy was so jealous that he ordered Rider to kill Asura no matter what. When he heard that Rider was scouting outside and found out that they were heading towards Willow Cave Temple, he laid in ambush and waited for Asura to come to him.
"What a mess. Now that I've met a Master like you, I feel sorry for Rider!”
Ling kicked him a few more times in displeasure, causing him to roll on the ground and wail. However, this meant that Rider was still in Willow Cave Temple. Ling immediately had a bad feeling.
"Hey, Shinji Makirito, why did you escape in such a panic? Tell me what happened!”
"Because, because Rider was heavily injured. She told me that she would use her last bit of strength to use her precious artifact and kill everyone on the mountain."
Before Shinji Makirito could finish his sentence. From the forest of Liudong Temple, a golden meteor shot straight into the sky. A huge amount of magic power swept through the surroundings, causing Ling to cover his face.
Then, when the shooting star reached the highest point in the sky, Ling saw that thing clearly.
It was the purple-haired beauty in black and the snow-white pegasus with its wings spread out beneath her.
