<span class="mu-i"> “I’ll be right there, Master. That Archer is rather hard to work with.” </span> You hear Avenger say to you telepathically. You can also tell that the main body of Sun Wukong seems to be trying to bring the fight a little closer to the subway station, and the unidentified Servant coming through the tunnels is drawing closer by the second.
Time is of the essence: you’re going to break through whatever defense Wukong can muster with his left hand and hew him down. Rushing forward, you move toward his right flank as it’s harder for him to defend. Deciding to let offense be the best defense, you begin a relentless assault with your mace and gladius. Two weapons against one, attacking from an advantageous angle, you’re able to at last daze him with a mace-strike to his neck and quickly follow it up with a sword-thrust straight through his heart.
As the copy disintegrates, you turn to see Lancer of Red standing protectively by her Master’s side and trying to stabilize his wound with her magic while Avenger lights on the ground with her staff pointed at the enemy Masters. Neither of the two got through their fight against Sun Wukong’s main body unscathed, but they don’t seem debilitated by their injuries. You yourself have a few cuts here and there, and Avenger’s power output between the skirmishes in the south and against Wukong is starting to wear you down, but you’re confident you can keep going a while longer.
A hare also sprints into the station, and you realize that Wukong transformed to give his third opponent the slip. He manages to dodge a few blasts from Avenger before transforming back to his normal form and readying himself in front of his Master for a final stand. His body is less burned up than that of the copy you fought, but he’s still covered in wounds with large patches of his fur scorched off.
The third Servant fighting him decides to pursue by smashing through the roof of the station, prompting you to dodge some rubble as he lands with a huff. Sure enough, this heavily-armored Servant wielding a giant metal wheel was Kuro no Archer, who angrily shouts, “Getting real tired this shit, monkey! Fuckin’ die already!” You find yourself starting to like him.
“You’re as persistent as Erlang Shen.” Sun Wukong grumbles, “Looks like we’re settling this here and now.”
<span class="mu-i"> “He can’t guard the Masters from me in these conditions.” </span> Avenger informs you, <span class="mu-i"> “Would you like them dead or alive?” </span>.
Before you respond, the Servant you detected in the tunnels earlier emerges with two decaying, animated corpses following behind him. Aka no Lancer: a heavily-built young man whose armor’s style reminds you both of Perseus’ and Aka no Rider’s.
“Diomedes.” You hear Rushorou mutter grimly, “And the wights.”
Addressing Wukong, Fyodor, and Kiara, Diomedes remarked, “It seems you lot could use some assistance.”
