Chapter 1523: Mission, speed, and chances of winning

"You two."

Bazett turned dark.

"I knew you two were related to this."

"Looks like our hunch turned out to be correct."

Mikoto said while staring at her.

"You, are you an enemy?"

"I wouldn't conclude it so soon."

Bazett clenched her fists.

"But, if you know about the class cards and are withholding that information then you're my enemy."

"Class cards?"

Hinagiku raised her sword.

"You're here for the cards too?"

"Watch out."

Rin warned.

"She is a first-class combat specialist, a veteran fighter famous even among other fighters."

"She is from the Mage's Association too?"

Mikoto frowned.

"You guys are from the same party?"

"I think it's obvious we are not on the same page."

Luvia said.

"She wants to attack us after finding out we know about the Class Cards. Plus, we haven't heard news about her deployment."

"Yeah, about that."

Rin yelled at Bazett.

"The Mage's association gave the assignment to Lord Kischur. Why are you here meddling in our affairs?"

"That's a grand way to put it."

Bazett said.

Hinagiku and Mikoto noticed the cold glimmer in her eyes.

"The mission was originally mine, wasn't it?"

"She was the first one on the case?"

Hinagiku looked at Luvia.

"What's going on?"

"Remember how we had two Class Cards at the start of our mission?"

"Lancer and Archer. She collected those two cards."

"Huh?"

The two gasped.

"By herself?"

"Yes."

Bazett nodded.

"Kischur was the one who took this assignment from me."

"Yeah, and it should stay that way."

Rin interjected.

"Why are you here?"

"Don't ask me."

Bazett coldly said.

"I am just here to finish my job. The people up there gave it to me."

"Upper-ups?"

Rin recalled.

"I see, so it's those people Master warned us about, the people who are power-hungry."

Bazett didn't answer.

"I am going to ask again, you two, do you know about the class cards? No, do you have them?"

"Straight to the point, huh?"

Mikoto defiantly replied.

"You think we would talk just because you asked?"

"I had hoped so."

Bazett pulled her gloves tighter.

"If you don't want to talk, I have other ways."

"The violent method?"

Hinagiku pursed her lips.

"In any case, let's move to another location. I don't want to contribute to wrecking this place again."

"Sorry."

Bazett growled.

"I don't want to change the battlefield ju-"

A pink blur entered her vision.

"Sorry."

Hinagiku whispered.

"I am not asking you to change the battlefield."

Hinagiku grabbed Bazett's collar. She dragged Bazett out through the main door.

"Don't follow us."

Mikoto chased after her.

Rin and Luvia stood there in a shocked state.

"I don't think I can cover you two while I am fighting her."

"Don't look down on her."

Luvia cautioned.

"Bazett can solo Heroic Spirits and she is a sealing designation enforcer. Treat her like a monster she is or you will regret it."

"Oh, one more thing."

Rin said.

"Don't use trump cards against her. She will instant-kill you if you use Noble Phantasms on her."

"An instant-kill Noble Phantasm counter?"

Mikoto was curious.

But, now wasn't the time.

Bazett is powerful, she can kill two spirits on her own. Hinagiku needs her help.

Mikoto nodded.

"Okay, thanks for the reminder."

Mikoto chased after them again.

Rin took out her phone.

Bam

Fwoosh

Hinagiku dragged Bazett out despite her lithe figure.

Then, she tossed her like a sack of potatoes.

Bazett landed perfectly after somersaulting with her palms to the ground.

"Hmph."

She slid back dozens of meters.

"You're fast."

Bazett analyzed her.

"Teleportation?"

"No."

Bazett turned grim.

"Pure speed."

"Yeah, that was 90% of my full speed."

Hinagiku grinned.

"If you can't react then you don't stand a chance."

"Thanks but you don't have to worry."

Bazett said.

"If that was your best then it won't be easy for you to touch me again."

"Moreover..."

She raised a fist.

Her runed gloves lit up green.

She smashed her fist into the ground.

Boom

A dust cloud shrouded her.

Fwoosh

From within the cloud, she shot multiple projectiles at Hinagiku.

An iron wall covered Hinagiku.

Mikoto gazed at the dust cloud as the two stared Bazett down.
