Type-Moon, but the Servant is Tom

Chapter 95: Tom and Saber Engage in an Ongoing Battle!

"Puff..." After spinning three and a half times in mid-air, Saber crashed heavily onto the ground.

Unfortunately, there happened to be a small stone where her head landed, and in that instant, her head collided with the stone.

"Ouch!" Immediately, a large bump appeared on top of Saber's head. As the bump emerged, there was even a voiceover that seemed to come from nowhere, coinciding with the moment the bump popped out of her head.

However, it was certain that the voice did not originate from the bump itself but was an external voiceover.

Despite the intense pain in her face and head, Saber gritted her teeth, pushing herself up with her left hand and standing back up.

"Haha... What kind of bizarre move is this?" gasping for breath, Saber used her left hand to touch the swollen left side of her face, while casting a wary glance at Tom.

Since birth, she had never encountered an enemy like Tom, who seemed utterly incomprehensible.

If it were a dominating and powerful foe, she could at least understand how she was overwhelmed. But Tom clearly wasn't that kind of enemy.

Just by looking at Tom, it seemed as though he had vulnerabilities all over his body, giving Saber the feeling that she could finish him off with a casual sword strike.

However, thanks to Tom's mysterious ability, she couldn't even land a hit on him. On the other hand, with a casual swing of his spatula, Tom could send her spinning helplessly in mid-air for three and a half rotations.

His attacks seemed to possess an inherent tracking ability, making it impossible for her to dodge!

At this moment, she finally understood why Assassin feared a mere familiar like Tom. Anyone would be afraid of facing him!

"...Guh, this is Schrdinger's move!" Gudako, who was rubbing her sore bottom on the ground, couldn't bear the pain any longer but still explained to Saber, enduring the pain from Bai Song's beatings.

Gudako gritted her teeth and mentioned Bai Song's true name because Saber had become Chaldea's last hope.

If even Saber failed, they would be completely defeated.

Just the thought of what Bai Song would do to her if she were captured filled her with anticipation... Oh no, fear.

"I see, so his true name is Schrdinger?" Upon hearing Gudako's words, Saber immediately began searching in her mind for legends about Schrdinger.

And then, um... no progress was made.

Obviously, someone from over a thousand years ago wouldn't know about Schrdinger's existence, and Schrdinger, the scientist, wouldn't be part of the contemporary knowledge instilled by the Holy Grail.

It's like learning a language where they only teach you the standard grammar and vocabulary but don't tell you how to use the language in a peculiar way.

Since there was no relevant knowledge about Schrdinger, Saber decided to continue asking Gudako, "So, what legends are there about Schrdinger?"

"Schrdinger's cat!"

"...What is Schrdinger's cat?" Hearing this random statement, Saber furrowed her brow, realizing that things were not simple.

"The cat in front of you is Schrdinger's cat!"

"And what has Schrdinger's cat done?"

Gudako looked at Saber seriously and replied, "It exists in a superposition of being both alive and dead!"

Saber turned her head to Gudako, immediately tilting it and having a flood of question marks in her mind. It was as if she had heard a nonsensical statement.

After receiving the explanation from Gudako, Saber became even more perplexed.

At this moment, all she wanted to say was, "What, what, what? What are you talking about?" (Image of Huang Bo from a Chinese comedy movie).

"So... what does that mean?" Completely certain that she didn't understand a word of what Gudako was saying, Saber promptly asked again, attempting to comprehend what Gudako had just explained.

"That's enough, please stop talking." Listening to Gudako's absurd explanation, even Bai Song couldn't bear it anymore. He swiftly whipped Gudako's bottom with force.

If Gudako dared to exert even a bit of effort to explain to the enemy, he would lighten the whip, but then increase the force!

"Smack!"

"ah~, ou~, ai~!!!" As the teaching whip struck Gudako's bottom once again, she had to cover her bottom and roll on the ground like a maggot.

After being whipped like this, Gudako naturally lost the ability to explain things to Saber.

Helpless, Saber had no choice but to continue fighting Tom in this information-deprived state. At this moment, she finally regretted not listening carefully to what Assassin had said.

But there was no such thing as a regret medicine in the world... well, probably not.

However, Gudako's information might be helpful. At least, during the upcoming battle, Saber could try her best to understand what Gudako meant. But the condition was that she shouldn't be killed by Tom before understanding the meaning. She firmly believed that Tom's ability to ignore her attacks wasn't unlimited. If there was a familiar in the Holy Grail War with an unlimited immunity to damage, they might as well give the Holy Grail to that cat directly.

While Saber was contemplating, Tom rushed forward again with his small shovel, this time attacking from the left.

"Swish!" In the instant she recognized the direction of the attack, Saber decisively grasped her invisible sword and swung it horizontally. However, she still didn't touch Tom's shovel as it swung towards her, completely missing it.

Seeing Tom once again ignoring her attack, Saber immediately prepared to retreat and evade. However... the same thing that happened before repeated itself. She found herself unable to move her feet as if her body's response had plummeted to that of an ordinary person whenever it was Tom's turn to attack, despite her mental reaction remaining unchanged.

"Bang~~~!" With a trembling impact, Tom struck Saber fully again. Both sides of her cheeks swelled up as if inflated. If someone unaware were to take a glance, they might think she was trying to look cute.

Fortunately, this time she didn't go flying from the blow, but she still stiffened for a while. When she regained her senses, Tom had already leaped up again and was descending, aiming at her head.
