Saber couldn't think of a way to handle this situation, but at the same time, she needed to solve this situation as soon as possible!
With the impossibility of telling Kiritsugu what was happening to the two of them currently, Saber knew that the only way to break away from this difficulty was to defeat the Servant in front of her!
Yet, with this Servant's playful nature, Saber was afraid that he might use Irisviel as a hostage or a human shield, so in case she tried to attack, he would use Irisviel to stop her.
Even if she hated it, she knew that her situation was already checkmate.
Moreover, if she couldn't get a supply of Prana, she might even disappear.
She was a Saber.
She was different from Archer, who could be so far away from his Masters due to his Skill, Assassin, with his limited and efficient way of using his energy, or Caster, who had millions of ways to maintain his presence in the world.
Though fortunately, her connection with Kiritsugu still existed, so even if her energy was almost emptied, her existence could still exist since Kiritsugu, who was her Master, could act as an anchor, so she could maintain her existence.
However, it was only for a moment, and as a Saber, her Prana consumption was the highest, so no matter what, she needed to break away from this problem as soon as possible!
Still, at the same time, Saber also felt sorry for Kiritsugu since she couldn't protect his wife and let Irisviel be molested by Caster.
Though watching this situation, she also frowned since it reminded her of something unpleasant in the past.
Nevertheless, knowing that her resistance was futile, Irisviel didn't do anything lest she would be hurt by him. She knew that her existence was necessary for the Holy Grail. If she was killed so soon, then she couldn't realize her husband's dream.
"....."
Her husband's dream...
When she thought about that dream, she knew that she couldn't die. Moreover, if she died, then what would happen to Saber?
On this highway, how was it possible for Saber to get a supply of Prana when their connection was cut by Tamazuki?
Then, suddenly an idea crossed her mind, especially when he was so gentle toward her.
"...you can have me."
"Irisviel!"
Saber was startled and shouted in disbelief.
However, Tamazuki was even more so.
"...what did you say?"
"You can have me."
"...what did you mean by those words?"
"I mean, literally. You can have my body."
Irisviel tried to bet since she could see from his eyes that he was interested in her. She knew that her act was an act of betrayal to her husband, but she did this for Kiritsugu. In front of Caster, who had cut off all of their escapes, the only way to escape was to give her body to him.
As expected, her bet was correct, especially when she saw a shocked, subtle, and difficult expression on his face.
This Caster is a pervert!
This was a thought on Irisviel's mind.
However, if her body was enough to give her and Saber safety, then everything was worth it.
Irisviel knew that she couldn't die right now, so she had to fight.
Her body might be soiled by Tamazuki, but even so, her heart was only for her husband.
"No, Irisviel! You can't do that!" Saber was in shock, then looked at Tamazuki furiously. "You bastard! Let her go! Don't violate her any longer!"
"No, Saber. If this can save us, then it is okay," Irisviel said calmly as she smiled at Saber. Her smile was so gentle, yet because of this smile, it hurt Saber so much.
Saber's expression was also difficult, and it wasn't hard for her to see that this was the best way to escape from their predicament, but as a knight, how could she let the wife of her Master sacrifice herself and let her body be tainted by this beast, so the two of them could escape from this predicament?
Saber then stared at Tamazuki with hatred, who also happened to stare in her direction.
Grinding her teeth, she took a deep breath, calming herself, and made a difficult decision.
"...let Irisviel go, and you can have my body."
"Saber!"
Irisviel was in shock!
"It's okay, Irisviel." Saber forced herself to smile. "You are a married woman. You have a husband and a daughter. Meanwhile, I am just a remnant of the past. While I have come to this world as a Servant, I am still a knight. I have my pride and loyalty, so how can I watch my Master sacrifice herself for me!"
If Saber could watch Irisviel sacrifice herself to be soiled by Tamazuki, then how could she call herself a king of knights?!
If she could allow such an atrocity, then she might as well commit suicide!
Though, she couldn't help but stare at Tamazuki, and strangely, the idea of being bedded by him wasn't that unpleasant. Still, she hated him, especially when he was so cowardly.
"So, let my Master go, Caster. While my body might be unsightly, you can have whatever you want with it, Caster."
"No, Saber! You can't do that! You are still a virgin! How can you give your untainted body to this beast?! I am married! I am okay!"
"No, Irisviel! You can't!"
The two argued with each other, thinking that they should be the ones who sacrificed themselves.
"...."
However, the beast that they talked about, Tamazuki, was lost in words, and he was unable to say a single word because of their hurtful misunderstanding.
Was he such a pervert?
Was he like someone who would force himself toward an opponent's gender?
Don't be kidding me!
It was the woman who jumped themselves and opened their legs like an automatic door for him!
"Enough!"
Tamazuki was furious. "I am not a pervert!"
"....." 2x
His anger quickly stopped Saber and Irisviel, but they still looked at him in doubt.
Tamazuki would be lying if he wasn't hurt. Even worse, Scheherazade didn't seem to intend to help him, telling him that he wasn't a pervert.
"I am a gentleman. I won't force anyone to go on a bed with me, but if they offer themselves, then I won't refuse."
"..." 3x
Neither Saber, Irisviel, nor Scheherazade knew what to say at this moment.
"Also, don't think of me as a pervert. This is a natural reaction when a man meets a charming woman."
"..." 3x
"Also, do you think that I will let you go even if either of you give yourselves to me? At least, you two need to give yourself to me before I let you go."
"..." 3x
The three of them realized that this guy's skin was so thick that it was comparable to the Einsbern Castle.
Either way, Scheherazade wanted to say something, but she was afraid that she might make herself known, so she shut her mouth.
However, Irisviel and Saber realized that Tamazuki was worse than a beast!
"I was kidding. You don't need to worry that I won't become a beast that moves with lust."
However, no one believed his words.
"Saber, and Saber's Master, you shouldn't doubt me. Even if I am a Caster, I still have my pride. If I want to get a woman, I will pursue them in a gentlemanly way, and there is no way for me to force them, okay?"
While Irisviel and Saber were in doubt, they felt relieved since they knew that he wouldn't force himself on them, but it didn't change their current situation as they were trapped by Tamazuki, and if they wanted to escape, then...
"Don't worry. Let's have a duel. You and me. If you can win, then I will let you and your fake Master go."
Tamazuki tried to reassure them that he wouldn't violate them.
"...okay."
Saber didn't have a choice, nor did she deny that Irisviel was her fake Master, but nevertheless, she knew Tamazuki was a fearsome opponent.
Still, Saber wondered how long Tamazuki would hug Irisviel, especially when he told them he wasn't a pervert.
