Unlike others, Shuoyue had witnessed the entire process and was aware of the fact that the Holy Grail had been corrupted.
But what about the others? Kariya, Tokiomi, and even Kiritsugu... How long did they prepare for this war, and how much did they sacrifice?
In psychology, there is an effect called "sunk cost," which means that the more you invest in something, the less willing you are to give it up, and you may even choose irrational behaviors for it.
Even if Shuoyue told them there was something wrong with the Holy Grail, would they really believe his one-sided story? The real problem is that Shuoyue can't possibly take them to the location of the Greater Grail; otherwise, his plan would be ruined…
Therefore, knowing the plot, Shuoyue remained silent and did not try to prove anything.
However, this isn't bad either. I'm looking forward to fighting with Servants. Perhaps there's some restless blood flowing through his veins...
The young man raised his eyes, his pupils shining brightly as they reflected the rushing golden light. As magic gathered, the white robe and red garment once again covered his body, fluttering as he drew his bow and nocked an arrow.
"Please stop, King of Knights!"
The arrow shot out instantly, its magical strike forcing the visitor to stop, who used his holy sword to block the attack.
Amidst the small-scale explosion, the knight, who resembled a young girl, had her golden hair flowing, and her holy blue eyes spoke of her awe-inspiring and inviolable will.
"Please hand over Illyasviel, and I will forgive your evil deed of kidnapping children, Shuoyue!"
Without a doubt, after fishing all day, Shuoyue finally couldn't resist and took a bite at night.
"Now that you're here, your wife must be nearby too, right?" Looking at the Knight King bathed in moonlight, the fully armed young man raised an eyebrow, showing no sign of nervousness in the face of the strongest class.
Amidst the roar of an inline 6-cylinder engine, a silver sports car brazenly drove into the park and pounced on the grass.
The gull-wing doors opened, and Irisviel, with her silver hair and red eyes, stepped out of the car, her beautiful face revealing her anxiety.
"New Moon, where is Ilya?!"
"Where is it?" The young man revealed a wicked smile, the black bow disappeared, and a crimson demonic spear appeared in his hand.
"His pupils contracted slightly, and he couldn't help but tighten his grip on the holy sword."
With a casual flourish, Shuoyue seemed to transform, the spear tip pointing straight at...
"Although you promised not to tell anyone, Kiritsugu doesn't seem to think so, does he?"
"Want to know where Ilya is? Sure."
As soon as she finished speaking, Shuoyue pushed off the ground with her right foot, transforming into a crimson meteor and charging towards the enemy.
"There's still a little time left. If you can defeat me before then, I'll tell you where Ilya is!"
Is there any time left?
What does that mean?
Distracted by the fact that her beloved daughter had kidnapped her, Irisviel dared not think any further and could only grit her teeth and give the order without hesitation:
"Bring me victory!"
"Yes, I will not fail in my mission!"
The Wind King Barrier was released in an instant, propelling the petite girl's body like a cannonball, causing her to collide violently with the young man's figure!
】
That was a familiar feeling.
The holy sword was deflected by the tip of the demonic spear. Artoria's eyes flickered slightly, and without even needing any warning from her intuition, she turned her arm and used the blade of her sword to block the spear that was pressing down on her.
The lighter thrusts were deflected, but the next moment, Shuoyue let out a soft shout, the veins on her arm bulging, and she thrust out more than a dozen spears at her face like lightning!
"Ding ding ding ding!"
A series of crisp collisions rang out as people dodged or parried, quickly retreating to escape the range of the spear's thrust.
"Why do you use such moves...!"
“Right, right!” the young man opposite replied readily. “After all, I got my experience and skills from him!”
Upon hearing this, I felt a surge of disbelief.
How can it be?
That's a spear technique that "Radiant Appearance" Diarmuid honed throughout his life, approaching the realm of the gods!
Shuoyue has only been exposed to it for a short time, how could she possibly learn it in a short while!
Moreover, Shuoyue did not display this power during their battle last night!
"It's dangerous to be spacing out during battle, you know?"
A light, airy voice came from behind him. Startled, he instinctively snapped back to his senses and raised his sword, only to be forcefully knocked away by a spear as fierce as an angry dragon.
The next moment, Shuoyue raised her leg without any mercy and kicked her in the stomach, sending her flying.
"Ugh!" With an uncontrollable groan of pain, the young female knight tumbled and flew more than ten meters away, barely managing to stand up after a while.
That kick just now... was definitely not the kind of power an ordinary attack would have.
"Although I can't deliver a kick that's as powerful as a finishing move like someone else's, I can still enhance my attack power with magic." Shuoyue didn't waver because of the pain on her face. Instead, she planted the exorcising red rose in the ground, and a black longbow reappeared in her hand.
"Stop holding back, or you'll die!"
"Are you alright?!" With Irisviel's call, a stream of cool water flowed over the swordsman, healing her injuries.
The Master's healing magic quickly restored Artoria's health. She raised her sword again, looked at Sakumoku who showed no sign of holding back, and finally made up her mind.
"In that case, let me cast aside my unnecessary guilt and fight you with all my might, Shuoyue!"
In the next breath, abundant magic power erupted from her petite body, and a clear battle aura surged forth, charging forward like a red dragon!
"Wind King Hammer!"
The raging wind cleared away the magical arrows, and the swordsman, surrounded by azure light, broke through the air and aimed at the archer in white robes and red clothes, his holy sword slashing down fiercely!
The radiance of the magic illuminated the young man's excited smile. At the critical moment, instead of pulling out the red rose stuck in the ground, he waved his right hand, and the doomed yellow rose fell into his palm, and his figure disappeared.
"Ping——!"
The golden holy sword appeared behind her with an illogical speed. She twisted her wrist and blocked the attack from behind in the posture of Su Qin carrying a sword on his back. But when she turned her head, the blade of the black sword Mo Xie was right next to her!
Thunder rumbled from the cloudless sky, a powerful roar echoing through the air.
! ”
Amidst a triumphant battle cry, a lightning-streaked oxcart descended from the sky, carrying countless bolts of lightning, charging toward the one launching a fatal attack—no, the new moon!
I heard it's coming out soon? Something to look forward to...
Chapter 115 Gathering of Kings
The raging lightning illuminated Shuoyue's pupils and the arrogant expression on his face.
Since we just met in the afternoon, how could we not be wary of his arrival?
With a light touch, the black sword Mo Xie touched the holy sword, and the young man's body seemed to lose gravity, easily floating into the air and transforming into a large bird spreading its wings, holding a black iron bow in his hand.
The spiraling arrow was nocked on the bowstring, and after a brief moment of charging, it was released and flew out!
"Pseudo-Spiral Sword!"
The spiraling arrow transformed into a streak of crimson light, and the moment it made contact with the oxcart bathed in lightning, Shuoyue clenched her fist tightly.
"Fantasy collapse!"
"Boom!" The overwhelming flames engulfed the divine thunder. Even the sacred beasts that had a connection with Zeus could not withstand the collapsing illusion and their charge was abruptly halted.
This is a technique that assumes the concept of a sword itself to be a disposable bomb, transforming the Noble Phantasm into an arrow to be shot with a bow and then exploded – using the Noble Phantasm as a one-time use item, its power is unimaginable.
"Indeed, on the battlefield, only head-on confrontation is truly satisfying!"
Amidst the loud laughter of the new moon, the battered and bruised divine ox broke through the thick fog of the explosion, its lightning fading. Sitting alone on the oxcart, it coughed loudly, looking utterly wretched.
"Pah! Pah! Pah! That's quite a powerful attack! Although this brat's actions tainted the treasure, I also used a sneak attack to gain an advantage, so let's say we each have our merits..."
"Look behind you!" Waver's voice echoed in his mind. Iskandar was startled and turned around. What came into view was not Sakuzuki, but Miyu, who had transformed into a magical girl and was holding a crimson magic gun.
This gun… is it that Noble Phantasm? No, that's not right!
Iskandar's expression changed drastically upon sensing the completely different magical and cursed aura emanating from the red spear.
"Flying Hoof Thunder Ox!"
But it was too late to escape, because when Miyu uttered the true name of the Noble Phantasm, the curse contained within the spear had already locked onto Iskandar's heart.
"The spear that pierces the death thorns!"
An unusually cold red light shot out. In a hurry, he gritted his teeth and raised the Cyprus Sword, his divine power surging within him, hoping to block this fatal blow.
"Ughhhhhh!" An irresistible force penetrated the sword, almost breaking his hand. However, the thin divine blood within him was activated in the critical moment. The power of divinity transformed into a heat current that flowed through Iskandar's body, helping him to grip the hilt tightly and prevent the spear that pierced the death thorns from breaking through this last line of defense.
After an unknown amount of time, Iskandar finally noticed that the spear's power was weakening, as if it had lost all its momentum.
Is it over...?
"Idiot, what are you doing! That's a magic spear that reverses cause and effect! When it was fired, it already had the result of 'piercing the opponent's heart'!" The Master's panicked voice exploded in his mind.
In a moment of profound realization, Iskandar twisted his wrist, and the exceptionally sturdy Cypriot sword sealed the location of his heart.
The next moment, a blood-red spear light pierced his heart like a ghost, but was blocked again by the longsword that arrived a step ahead!
But to outsiders, after Miyu threw the spear that pierced the death thorn, his imposing body was lifted high by the force of the spear and flung out of the oxcart like a rag doll, crashing heavily to the ground!
"That is... the weapon of the Child of Light!" The man, who had no means of levitation, suddenly changed color and his wary gaze fell on the little girl.
The True Name Liberation is impossible to be wrong; it is absolutely the weapon wielded by Cú Chulainn, the great hero of Celtic mythology who was half-human and half-god!
That Noble Phantasm, comparable to the Great God's Declaration, is the Spear that Pierces Death Thorns!
But why would this weapon appear on such a little girl? Could it be that Cú Chulainn, like her, was a woman disguised as a man? No, impossible, there's no room for hiding gender in his legend.
So, what exactly is going on?
She was still wondering, but Shuoyue showed no sign of stopping. He stared at the spot where Iskandar had fallen, and drew his iron bow again, nocking blood-red arrows that looked like caltrops on the bowstring.
"As expected, Luck A+ was able to dodge Dog Brother's magic spear, not to mention that Miyu couldn't unleash the full power of her Noble Phantasm... Looks like I'll have to finish her off."
Releasing the bowstring, Beowulf's Noble Phantasm 'Red Hound' transformed into an arrow, lunging towards the locked figure.
A burst of golden light appeared, and amidst the ripples, the true demonic sword "Crimson Hound" was projected out, colliding with the arrow shot by Shuoyue, and both exploded.
