A certain crossover anime's nuclear-powered sword immortal

He wore a white skull mask, and blue flames burned in the skull's eyes.

He held a rusty greatsword in his hand. The sword did not look sharp, but it exuded a terrifying aura of death.

When the treasure was revealed, golden light appeared behind the skeleton swordsman, and pure white feathers fluttered down slowly within that golden light, giving people a sense of holiness.

"The evening bell has already rung for you."

A black figure appeared in everyone's sight, emitting...

A solemn declaration.

Then, he slowly raised his greatsword, pointing the tip at Shirou.

"Hand over the head!"

The deep voice, like the arrival of death, swept towards Shirou like a shadow.

With uncanny footsteps, the first Hassan arrived in front of Shirou at a speed that even Mash, Da Vinci, and Bedivere couldn't catch with their eyes. He simply swung his greatsword, yet it carried an aura of slaughter.

Chapter Eighteen: The sword above, fate below.

clang----!

A clear, resounding sound rang out, causing the entire mausoleum to tremble slightly.

"Ok?"

Wang Hassan looked at Shirou, who had somehow produced a large black sword that blocked his attack, and couldn't help but make a sound of surprise.

The jet-black greatsword had irregular patterns on it, making it look as if it might shatter at any moment.

However, Wang Hassan keenly sensed that a dazzling golden light was flowing within the gaps between the irregular patterns on the jet-black greatsword, and it was hard to imagine how terrifying it would be when it was revealed, as it contained an incomparably violent power.

As King Hassan examined the black greatsword in Shirou's hand, Shirou's voice reached his ears.

"Perfect timing, let me experience the power of the first Hassan today."

Upon hearing Shirou's words, the eerie blue flames burning in King Hassan's eyes intensified.

Ding-ding-ding!

The evening bells rang again.

Although the attack just now missed, it doesn't mean that this Noble Phantasm is bad. On the contrary, this Noble Phantasm is quite powerful.

If anyone other than Shirou had been caught just now, no one could have caught that blow.

Because once the evening bell tolls, someone will inevitably die; this is the destiny that connects cause and effect.

"Can you hear the sound of this bell?"

Wang Hassan's voice echoed throughout the mausoleum along with the sound of the evening bells.

"This is the end of your destiny. Accept it, liberate your soul, and this is your last chance as a human being to enjoy peaceful sleep."

Wang Hassan's voice, which had been low throughout, gradually rose in pitch.

"The evening bells have revealed your name—'Azrail, the Angel of Death'!!!"

Accompanied by the long, drawn-out chimes, he—sneaked in.

No one could pinpoint his location, just as a human cannot pinpoint their own shadow.

He appeared before Shirou like a phantom, his greatsword, tinged with a deep blue light, hurtling towards him.

Shirou silently watched King Hassan approach, raising the jet-black greatsword "Twilight" in his right hand.

"The sword is above, destiny is below!"

Even the slightest tremor of the sword caused the surrounding space to tear apart.

The moment the two swords clashed, Wang Hassan didn't even have time to react before his body was sent flying backward like a meteor.

Bang————!

His body crashed through the walls of the temple and did not stop, continuing to pass through the mountains and disappearing in the blink of an eye.

Mashu and the others, who were standing still and witnessing this scene, were speechless.

Bedivere was stunned for a moment before he finally spoke, "So...so strong...!"

Bedivere never felt such intense pressure from either the king or any of the knights of the Round Table.

That was no longer within the realm of heroic spirits; it exceeded the limits of his imagination.

Gudako couldn't help but sigh.

"I wonder if Solomon, the 'Magic King' who caused the burning of humanity, was capable of this kind of thing..."

After King Hassan was knocked away, the area fell completely silent.

Roman was curious about what had happened because the terminal connection had become unstable due to King Hassan, and he quickly asked about it after the connection was restored.

"Hey, it looks like communications are back up. Where's that 'Old Man of the Mountain'? We haven't seen him. Hey, why aren't you guys saying anything?"

Gudako and Mashu were both a little unsure how to answer the question.

In the end, Leonardo da Vinci explained the situation to Roman.

"What!?"

Roman exclaimed in surprise after hearing this.

"Are you serious?"

“We were just as incredulous as you were, Doctor, but it’s true,” Mashu said.

Because of Mashu's words, Roman was extremely curious about what had just happened. He felt like a viewer who had missed a great live broadcast, and he wished he could turn back time.

"Damn it! I wish I could see such an exciting battle in person!"

Roman's regretful words left Mash and the others, as well as Bedivere, exchanging bewildered glances.

While the power and fighting style displayed by the first Hassan were indeed spectacular, the ending of the battle felt somewhat minimalist.

Just as Roman was about to ask for more details, King Hassan, who had just been sent flying a great distance,

They've come back.

As shadows gathered, the towering 'Old Man of the Mountain' reappeared.

"...Followers of magic, you have earned my approval."

This time, however, his attitude was much gentler, almost like a completely different person from before.

“My sword is willing to pave the way for your battle. I will face that ‘Sun Knight’ Gawain, hmm… that’s his name, isn’t it?”

King Hassan's gaze swept over Gudako and Mashu, and when it finally landed on Shirou, he treated him with an attitude of equality.

"Let my sword transform into a raptor and peck out that man's eyes; let my black robes transform into the night and devour the holy city."

"That...that...old man..."

Gudako hesitated, about to speak, when Mash quickly stopped her.

"Master, isn't it a bit impolite to address someone as 'Grandpa'..."

"No, it's okay."

Wang Hassan said calmly, "You may call me whatever you like. I have no name and I don't care about such things."

Seeing that it was about time, Shirou spoke up at the opportune moment.

"Well then, it's about time we headed to the Holy City."

Wang Hassan nodded upon hearing this: "Yes, I will become a shadow and accompany you."

After everyone left the shrine, the Hassans, having discovered the birth of the first Hassan, rushed over.

Upon seeing the Cursed Arm Hassan, King Hassan's deep blue eyes suddenly flashed red.

Image: "Red Eye", Location: "Images/1679144284-100352746-110080504.jpg"

That was definitely a murderous look in his eyes.

"Cursed Wrist, you haven't improved at all. Go and do your job with these people. After it's done, I will cut off your head."

Hassan, the Cursed Arm, was not afraid. Instead, he respectfully said to the king, "...I am deeply grateful. I swear in the name of the 'Old Man of the Mountain' that I will complete my mission."

The red light in King Hassan's eyes gradually faded, and he then looked at Bedivere.

"Let's go, let's reach the Holy Land before the Lion King's Holy Lance reveals its true form, and return that sacred object to its master."

"..."

Bedivere looked at King Hassan in silence, then gave a polite nod.

As everyone boarded Shirou's Shining Ship "Vimana," Mash suddenly pointed to the sky in a certain direction and exclaimed in surprise.

"Senior, look over there!"

Everyone looked up in the direction Mashu had pointed.

The enormous shadow that obscures the sun, the golden, dazzling temple belonging to the 'Sun King' Ozymandias, is now suspended in the sky.

Chapter Nineteen: Assembling in the Holy City

Inside the magnificent, resplendent temple, Ozymandias, seated high on his throne, looked at Shirou and the others who had once again entered the temple.

“What I uphold is the law of the gods. But… well, your ability to defeat King Hassan has already fully demonstrated everything to me; your potential exceeds my expectations.”

Ozymandias's voice echoed in the temple.

When Ozymandias first appeared in the world, he became an enemy of the Mountain People.

King Hassan was able to bypass those divine beasts and easily infiltrate the temple of Ozymandias.

Although Ozymandias fought back with all his might, King Hassan simply slipped back into the darkness, leaving Ozymandias with no way to attack.

Then, King Hassan struck Ozymandias in the neck with a sword strike that Ozymandias could not react to at all.

The assassination techniques of the divine realm.

If it weren't for Ozymandias's advantage in fighting at the temple and his immortality, his head would have been gone long ago.
