Chapter 450 Assassination From Behind

"Pfft!"

The moment Caster snapped his fingers, the sound of a sword entering flesh also sounded.

Fujimaru Ritsuka was stunned for a moment, and then she felt the sharp pain from her back. The pain was transmitted into her mind through the nerves, making her look pale instantly.

"Lord!"

"Master!"

"Ritsuka!"

The three people on the side, Fuuma Kotaro, Hohoin Yinshun and Musashi, all changed their expressions when they saw this, and they all exclaimed with anxiety and worry.

Where the three people's eyes met.

Qingji's eyes were dull as if she had fallen into a drowsy state, as if she was completely unconscious at the moment, and she didn't know when she held a dagger in her hand.

At this moment, the other end of the dagger had penetrated deeply into Fujimaru Ritsuka's back, causing dripping blood to gush out from the wound and dye the Chaldean white uniform red.

"Ah ha ha ha ha ha! Stupid, really stupid! Are you just vigilant about her safety and not thought about the possibility of her being manipulated by me? Gu ha ha... ha ha, ha ha ha ha ha!"

As if he saw that his long-planned plot was finally implemented, Caster let out a maniacal laugh. While laughing, he insulted the intelligence of the people below him and declared his victory.

The hands and feet he used on Qingji through his shikigami last night were not to hurt her body, but to secretly control her mind.

The previous action of snapping the fingers was not only to attract the attention of the other four people, but also the key gear that allowed the technique to control Qing Ji to take effect.

"rat!"

Musashi's eyes widened unconsciously, and there was a strong coldness in his eyes. He clenched the Myojin Kiri in his hand and planned to rush forward and cut him into pieces.

"Wait a minute, Lord Musashi! The safety of my lord's life is the priority now!"

Kotaro immediately stopped Musashi's actions, and quickly came to Fujimaru Ritsuka's side, pushed Kiyohime away from her, and then carried the shaky Fujimaru Ritsuka on his back.

"Retreat first! Try to treat the Lord's injuries first! Otherwise, there is a risk of excessive bleeding over time!"

Musashi's movements froze, and the strong anger in his mind cooled down slightly. Although the murderous intention against Caster was still raging in his heart, he still managed to calm down, sheathed his sword and prepared to retreat with Kotaro.

"Wait... Qingji..."

Fujimaru Ritsuka lay on Fuma Kotaro's back. Although the pain stimulated his brain and almost lost the ability to think, he still reluctantly raised his head and looked at Kiyohime beside him.

"She's right...She's also..."

Kiyohime fell to the side, her eyes still lifeless and completely unconscious. After all, it was Caster who controlled her. If she was still conscious, with her obsession with Fujimaru Ritsuka, I'm afraid he would never stab her in the back. knife.

"Then let me carry it on my back!"

Seeing that Kotaro was already carrying Fujimaru Ritsuka, Hohoin Yinshun took the initiative to walk up and planned to carry Kiyohime who fell on the ground.

"Uh-huh!"

But before he could get close to Qing Ji, several shurikens flew out of the air from the side and shot rapidly towards Hoho Yin Yinshun with a burst of sound.

"who!"

Hohoin Yinshun took two steps back, dodged the shuriken, raised his Jumonji Gun in front of him, and raised his eyebrows in the direction where the shuriken was thrown.

In that direction, a figure jumped from the rafters not far away at high speed, half-crouched beside Caster like a servant, and looked towards this side with cold eyes.

It was a female ninja who had her black hair combed back into a high ponytail and wore a tight-fitting ninja uniform. She looked to be about twenty years old. At this moment, she was holding two shurikens in her hands. It's like it's going to be projected the next moment.

"you are not……?"

After Hohoin Yinshun and Musashi saw her figure, they both looked surprised.

"you are--!?"

When Fuma Kotaro saw this, his expression suddenly changed, as if he couldn't believe it.

This female ninja was actually the female ninja who followed Munenomi Yagyu. They had met each other yesterday, but they didn't expect to become enemies today.

Fuma Kotaro's face was particularly bad, but most of his face was hidden under his bangs, so people couldn't see his face clearly.

"You take the Master away first, then come down and stop the rear!"

Hohoin Yinshun did not hesitate, he placed the Jumonji Spear in front of him, and said solemnly: "Now is not the time to hesitate, hurry up, I can hold on for a while with my special treasure, but the master can't hold on for that long. !”

"...I'm sorry, please!"

Fuma Kotaro was silent for a while, and then, still carrying Fujimaru Ritsuka on his back, he immediately jumped up from where he was and jumped to the rafters, then left the castle tower and ran quickly towards the distance.

"Monk! You have to hurry up and catch up!"

Musashi immediately ran to Kiyohime, picked her up horizontally, and after giving instructions to Hohoin Yinshun with a solemn expression, he quickly followed Kotaro and left here.

When the female ninja saw this, she immediately threw her shuriken at Musashi, trying to stop her from taking Kiyohime away.

But with two clanging sounds, the shuriken she threw was quickly shot down by Hohoin Yinshun wielding his spear.

"Your opponent is the master of the Jumonji Gun of Hohoin!"

Hohoin Yinshun held his spear in front of him, blocking Caster and the female ninjas, with a stern smile on his face.

"When there are only two opponents, it's much easier than when we were in the bamboo forest, and one of them is Caster. You two can't pass through here easily!"

Among the seven major classes of servants, the three classes of Saber, Archer, and Lancer often have relatively excellent ability values, so they are also called the Three Knights. They are relatively more powerful in frontal combat. ability.

Rider, Caster, and Assassin are types that rely on mounts, spells, and assassinations to fight, so their frontal combat capabilities are slightly weaker.

Especially the Casters among them, most of them are magicians who are not proficient in combat. Even the magicians of the Gods who are highly accomplished in magic may not be able to fight against a second-rate Third Knight Servant in a head-on battle.

Among the two people on the opposite side, one is a female ninja who cannot detect the aura of the servant, and the other is just Caster. Although the technique is difficult, neither one seems to have high frontal combat effectiveness. Even if he is one against two, he still has Possibility of victory.

"There are only two opponents? Uh-huh-huh..."

It was just that after Caster heard what he said, he covered his mouth and laughed for some reason, and then gave an order to the kunoichi on the side, "Go, take him down... Since it is a heroic spirit summoned by the magician, then there is no Let him run away."
