[ Berserker is a tricky opponent, but the two Lancers have the upper hand in both number and skill: their opponent only has use of one arm, which is a good starting point, and the two spearmen's combined agility is forcing the bigger Servant into a tighter corner with each clash.

It helps that Cu Chulainn and Diarmuid are both from the same country of origin; their techniques are similar, carved from the same foundation, and complement each other without the use of verbal communication for cues. When Cu cuts a wide arc with Gae Bolg, Diarmuid follows up with a strong inwards strike, grazing their enemy's flank with his cursed lance. It's like a complicated dance, too quick to catch the details of but well worth watching.

By the time Lien and Ai arrive, the two have managed to make more than a few permanent cuts on their opponent (bless Gae Buidhe), and Cu is yelling "give me a hand" to Diarmuid, bearing canines, his pupils dilated and staring straight at Berserker.

A light smirk, and Diarmuid drops down, bracing himself on the bridge hard enough for the cement to fracture.

—Now!

[ And gracefully, he catches Cu as the blue-haired warrior jumps onto his shoulder, effectively launching Cu towards Berserker so he can drive Gae Bolg into the Servant's chest. ]
