The inferno that was taking over the castle was nowhere to be seen. Now only a portal of flame could be seen. Standing next to it was my sister Arina. Reaching out of the portal was a strange hand. It grabbed Archer and pierced her with a sword.

"Master what have you done?"

A cackling came out of the portal.

"What was necessary." she motioned to the mysterious figure. "Berserker."

"Origin consume."

Normally, when a servant is defeated, they return to the grail. This wasn't what happened right now. Archer turned into pure blue energy. She then was sucked into the black blade.

The blade had a humming sound to it as it sucked Archer inside it. I have never heard of a story like it. What sort of hero was this?

"True aim is the origin, that will be useful."

Out of the portal stepped a toned man. He had many scars and burns all over. He had a jet-black chest plate trimmed with gold and similar faulds. On his armor, he bore the crest of the L/N family on his chest. He wore bead necklaces and a gold crown. He had shackles that once bound him, but they were now broken.

"Ready yourselves!"

"Why hello Dagger host."

"Who are you? Where is Berserker?" Said Lilith.

"I guess I've never shown you this form. Interesting now that I see you in person.... I can't help but have hunger."

This presence...! Back away from him now.

I stepped back. The mana that this servant exuded was different. More dark, and diluted.

"This is Berserker." sair Arina. "He is strong enough to defeat you Y/N." she had a twisted smile.

"She is right dagger host. Tell me did you get what you wanted when you wielded that dagger? Did you get the power you strived for?"

"I don't understand.."

"I figured. Tell me do you know what power costs?" Berseker turned into a flame and teleported behind me.

"Nothing.... it costs nothing. That's what's so great isn't it."

You're wrong. The dragon's deep voice could be heard by everyone.

"Who was that?"

If you seek power, like hunger, It will fatten you, numb you, kill you. It is like being gobbled up like a mouse to a snake's venom.

"I know better than anyone, that power is the world's lifeblood. You told me so yourself. Aren't you the hypocrite?" Berserker. He manifested from the flame into his body. He pointed his sword at my neck.

"Don't you dare!"

Saber jumped forward and charged into the fray. She began to slash at the servant.

Each attack landed. Cutting Berserker. But he didn't bleed. His body was tanking every hit. how?

Use your eyes now

I saw the problem he was dodging somehow. With each attack, he deconstructed his body into flame and reassembled it. Wait... he has no red lines.

"Saber get out of there!" I yelled.

She didn't listen.

"Aliisa give her strength and speed now!" I said.
