Souichirou appears and Shirou tells Rin to go ahead as he fights Souichirou and she goes to rescue Sakura. Meanwhile Saber and Assassin fight continues on. They compliment each other on being one of the best swordsmen they have ever faced and Assassin tells Saber that his identity, Sasaki Kojirou doesn't really exist. He is fabricated from people's minds of being a great swordsman so he is a fictional heroic soul. He says he has no desire for the Holy Grail therefore; his true desire is this, a fight with a worthy opponent.We find out more on the past of Rin & Sakura and how they once were bestfriends. Caster is watching this smiling says she just needs one magician for the sacrifice. Everything seems to be going as she had planned.
