After learning that Tohsaka Rin and Luvia had been captured by Darius, the "Save the Older Magical Girls" plan began.
"Honestly, adults are so unreliable. They're so old, and they can't even protect themselves. Hmph, how embarrassing." Kuro said, twirling a strand of her hair around her finger, sitting on a desk with her legs crossed.
Illya nodded beside her, then quickly shook her head as if realizing something. "Now's not the time for that! We have to go save them!"
"Save them? Save them with what? Are you going to go over there and try to be cute until they die?" Kuro retorted mercilessly, making Illya's face flush.
"It seems the magic wands are also with the Einzworth Family," Mo Shuying mused, stroking his chin thoughtfully. He vaguely remembered that Ruby and Sapphire were both in the castle.
"Really! That's great! Let's go save Rin and the others together, and get Ruby back while we're at it, then teach them a good lesson!" Illya exclaimed, swinging her arms with determination.
Emiya Shirou looked at the eager Miyu, hesitated, then spoke. "No, it's too dangerous. You two should stay here. We'll go."
"Brother!" Miyu pouted, actually whining, which made Illya's eyes widen.
"Indeed, we'll be enough. We'll bring back Ruby and Sapphire. Oh, and Rin and Luvia too." Mo Shuying said casually, as if Tohsaka Rin and Luvia were just an afterthought.
"This!" Illya wanted to join, but she knew she would only be a burden right now. Kuro smirked from the side.
"Just accept it. Leave this kind of thing to us. You two stay here and wait for our return." Kuro jumped off the table. Mo Shuying and Emiya Shirou stood up. Bazett put on her gloves and followed. Unfortunately, the Reverse Light Sword wasn't brought along during the transfer, otherwise it would have been a great killing move.
"We're heading off then. Don't let your guard down either." With a final instruction, the four left the school and headed for the Einzworth mansion.
On the way, Emiya Shirou shared the information he knew.
"That's about all I know. Everything should go according to plan; there shouldn't be any problems, especially since they've lost Angelica." Emiya Shirou's brow furrowed as he said this, looking at Mo Shuying. "Are you really not going to guard against Angelica? If she makes a move, it might be dangerous with just Miyu and Illya."
Although Angelica no longer had her Class Card, she had a foundation in Magecraft. If it came to a real fight, Illya and Miyu would be no match.
"It's fine. I left Illya a Mystic Code. She can handle it if anything happens." Mo Shuying smiled mysteriously. How could he not have a backup plan?
"In that case, I'm relieved. Let's go, we're almost there."
Ahead was a massive crater. The four approached, then immediately split up. Mo Shuying activated Presence Concealment. Kuro and Emiya Shirou each pulled out an invisibility cloak, wrapped themselves, and stealthily moved in.
Only Bazett remained. She took a deep breath, and then...
A frontal assault!
"Einzworth family! Come out!" Bazett entered the Boundary Field, arriving in the still-damaged garden area.
Her loud shout immediately drew the attention of people inside the castle.
"They're here."
"Let's go! It's time to redeem ourselves!" Beatrice pulled out a card. It wasn't Heracles, nor was it a new card given by Darius; instead, it was Atalanta's card, which Darius had recovered.
Gripping the card, she instantly performed Install, transforming into an Archer. Beatrice, accompanied by two maid girls, walked towards the garden.
"Has the Einzworth Family fallen so low that they don't even entertain guests anymore? How rude!" Bazett marched towards the castle, her mind constantly on alert. Suddenly, a whooshing sound cut through the air. Bazett was prepared and twisted her body, dodging the arrow.
*Swoosh!*
The feathered arrow struck the ground, then dissolved into points of light. It was an arrow condensed from Mana.
"Finally coming out?" Bazett looked in the direction the arrow had come from. Her eyes widened when she saw the two maids emerge!
"You! You two!" That's right, these two maids were none other than Tohsaka Rin and Luvia, who had been captured by the Einzworth family, had their consciousnesses transferred using substitution Magecraft, and their bodies were now puppets.
Watching them approach in identical red and blue maid outfits, their chests were, truly...
"Rin's really pathetic," Bazett couldn't help but grumble.
To her surprise, Tohsaka Rin, whose eyes were vacant, lifted her head and looked at Bazett, speaking in a mechanical voice.
"Enemy detected. Attack. Nameless. Sword!"
Tohsaka Rin reached under her skirt and pulled out a black card. After releasing its true name, it transformed into a massive black light sword. Gripping the sword with both hands, Tohsaka Rin lunged forward, slashing at Bazett!
"You call that a Noble Phantasm?"
Green light radiated from Bazett's hands as runes appeared. Having gained the full inheritance of Cú Chulainn's Rune Magic, Bazett's Rune Magic had advanced significantly, and her increased strength was evident to all.
"Break!"
Her green-glowing fist struck the black light sword without hesitation! The black sword's attack, comparable to a Noble Phantasm, was blocked by Bazett. Then, Bazett smashed the black light sword aside with another punch, before unleashing a powerful punch towards Tohsaka Rin!
"Nameless. Shield."
However, Luvia appeared behind Tohsaka Rin, also holding a black card, and released a black light shield, blocking Bazett.
"This again?"
Bazett's punch caused the black light to scatter wildly, but the shield was strong and didn't break.
Immediately after, a barrage of arrows flew towards her. Bazett dodged left and right, avoiding the hidden attacks, and glanced at Beatrice, who was standing atop the castle, drawing her bow.
"Ansur!!"
Bazett clasped her hands together, and when she opened them again, a fireball condensed in her palm.
She tossed the fireball into the air, then slammed her fist into it, sending it flying towards Beatrice.
Initially, Beatrice wasn't too concerned. It was just a baseball-sized fireball; she could simply dodge it. But then!
*Boom!*
Just as the fireball was about to pass Beatrice, it suddenly exploded! In an instant, it formed a spherical Boundary Field of roaring flames! Beatrice was caught off guard and trapped within the Boundary Field. Then!
"Ah!!"
Engulfed in flames, Beatrice cried out in pain. Even though she was currently manifested as a Heroic Spirit, most of the damage inflicted was on her Heroic Spirit form, but the remaining pain still made her scream. The flames only receded five or six seconds later.
"Hmph."
Bazett quickly retreated after her successful attack. A black light sword cleaved the spot where she had just been standing; Tohsaka Rin had attacked again.
"Hmph, without the God of Thunder's power, that's all you've got."
Bazett had previously been injured by Beatrice using Mjolnir. Now, she was happy to return the favor!
