The petrification effect of the Demon Eye is affected by the opponent's strength, durability, luck, and magic power. In addition, the Goddess's Divine Core and other inherent skills can also weaken the effect of the Demon Eye.

Therefore, even R's A+ rank Mystic Eyes wasn't very effective against a powerful Servant like Artoria.

However, if it's the A++ rank Mystic Eye 'Kuberle' that Gorgon possesses after transforming into Gorgon in Absolute Demonic Front: Babylonia, then the effect is completely different.

Add to that her current A+ level of luck.

"hiss--"

"What are Gilgamesh and Artoria's Luck and Magic Resistance levels again?"

Kitagawa Yu quickly recalled the events.

Gilgamesh has a high Luck rank, but it's only A-rank. His Magic Resistance is only C-rank because of his Archer class, so he seems unable to withstand Medusa's Mystic Eyes petrification!

Artoria fared even worse, because of Kiritsugu Emiya's demise, her luck was only D-rank. Although her magical resistance reached A-rank due to the Saber class bonus, overall, she still couldn't withstand the petrification from her A++-rank Mystic Eyes combined with A+ luck!

"The Blade of Slaughter can easily break through Gilgamesh and Artoria's defenses, which means that if Medusa gets close and is hit by her Petrifying Eye, it's almost certain death."

"But Medusa's agility is an A+!"

Thinking about this, Kitagawa Yu had even simulated a 'perfect' battle strategy in his mind.

That is to activate 'Distant Thoughts', rely on the invincibility effect, withstand the damage from Curry Stick or Ea, rush to the opponent with A+ agility, then activate the Noble Phantasm Athena's Embrace, maximize the effect of the Mystic Eyes, petrify the target, and then wield the Blade of Slaughter to behead them in one strike.

This is absolutely incredible!

If the opponent is not on guard, it is really easy to be ambushed and killed!

"and many more!"

"It's one thing to take down Gilgamesh, but why do I keep wanting to take down Saber? This isn't right!"

"If anyone should be killed, it should be Emiya Kiritsugu, not my queen!"

"However, if we take down Kiritsugu Emiya, it seems like little Illya will be without a father."

"So it's all Tokiomi's fault!"

Perhaps feeling confident of victory and certain of the outcome, these absurd thoughts suddenly popped into Kitagawa Yu's head.

Now, he has no complaints about Medusa's choice to carry the Noble Phantasm, "The Embrace of the Goddess".

In fact, Medusa did deliberately choose this Noble Phantasm.

Because her original form in the Throne of Heroes has received the memories of the Fifth Holy Grail War, she clearly knows which Heroic Spirits will appear in the Fourth Holy Grail War.

A showdown of ultimate moves?

Do not make jokes!

No matter how powerful her Riding Hero's Reins is, can she withstand a direct clash with Curry Stick and Ea?

impossible!

Even Iskandar's Royal Army couldn't be destroyed by her Cavalry's Reins, because the Cavalry's Reins could only capture a maximum of 500, while the Royal Army had tens of thousands of soldiers!

So she had no choice but to find another way and opt for the goddess's embrace.

As luck would have it, even fate was on her side.

Because Kitagawa Yu saved Matou Sakura, the biggest weakness of her battle strategy—her low luck—was also compensated for.

This is practically like giving Cu Chulainn an A+ level of luck; his spear of death pierces through every target with perfect accuracy. He's practically invincible!

As expected of an older sister, she is indeed very experienced!

Just as Kitagawa Yu was overjoyed, at the other end of Fuyuki City, a dozen kilometers away from the Matou family, in a manor that was no less grand than the Matou family's and looked even more magnificent, Tokiomi Tohsaka, holding a magic wand, was dumbfounded.

"What?! You've only just gotten close, and the Matou family has already emitted the aura of a second Heroic Spirit?!" Tokiomi Tohsaka looked at the Hassan clone who had come to deliver the message and couldn't help but ask again.

Although Zouken Matou had previously stated that no one in the Matou family of this generation would participate in the Holy Grail War, and he didn't think that the only person in the Matou family with magical talent, Kariya Matou, who was utterly useless, could pose any threat to him even if he did participate, he still did not neglect to monitor the Matou family.

After all, the Matou family was one of the original three starter families and the family that created the Command Seals system.

But he never expected that just over half an hour ago, he suddenly received a report from Hassan's clone that the Matou family was emanating the aura of a Heroic Spirit.

He then instructed Hassan's clone to find an opportunity to infiltrate the Matou family and investigate the information about that Heroic Spirit. If the opportunity arose, he was to directly eliminate the Heroic Spirit's Master.

However, before Hassan's clone could even break through the numerous magical barriers surrounding it, a second Heroic Spirit emerged from within.

“Yes, I’m quite certain. There are two Heroic Spirits inside, and they were just summoned,” Hassan’s clone, wearing a skull mask, said in a low voice.

Tokiomi Tohsaka, who was on the other side, could no longer hold back and abandoned his usual elegance, cursing loudly.

"Foul! This is a blatant foul! How can the Matou family summon two Servants?!"

According to the information he had, Matou Kariya had already moved out of the Matou family home and was currently playing in the park with his wife and daughter.

That's right, he already knew about Matou Kariya and his wife's affair, but his mind was entirely focused on the Holy Grail War. In addition, this meant that Matou Kariya wouldn't be able to participate in the Holy Grail War, which was equivalent to eliminating a somewhat threatening opponent, so he just let it go.

so.

How exactly did the Matou family manage to summon two Heroic Spirits?

Where did the Matou family get two magicians to be their Masters?

"It couldn't possibly be Sakura, could it?"

The thought involuntarily popped into Tokiomi Tohsaka's mind, but he immediately dismissed it.

"Impossible! How old is Sakura? How could she possibly crave the Holy Grail and be granted Command Seals by it!"

"It must be that old bastard Zouken Matou!"

"The Holy Grail summoning system was provided by the Matou family. They might even have a backdoor through which one person can summon and control two Servants!"

Compared to the younger Matou Sakura, who also received a response from the Holy Grail, became a Master, and joined the Holy Grail War, it's more reasonable and likely more likely that Matou Zouken got in through connections.

Most importantly, if Matou Sakura can become a Master, wouldn't sending her over there be aiding the enemy?

"Notify Kirei to come and meet me as soon as possible. Although Archer is powerful and can face any Servant in a two-on-one situation without fear, it would be terrible if the Einzbern Master interfered at this time."

Clearly, Tokiomi Tohsaka was feeling a bit guilty at this moment, worried that Zouken Matou would come looking for trouble with two Heroic Spirits.

In any case, two against one always have some advantages.

However, at this moment, he was not the most panicked of all the Masters. The most panicked one was Kenneth El-Melloi Archibald, who was still far away at the Clock Tower in London, teaching his students.

That concludes today's lesson!

Kenneth, standing on the podium, had a gloomy expression. After speaking, he hurriedly grabbed his lesson plan and left the classroom.

"Damn, damn, damn!"

"They're all a bunch of scoundrels who have no sense of martial ethics!"

"Wasn't the Holy Grail War supposed to officially begin a year later? How come we've already summoned five Servants ahead of schedule?"

"Don't they know that maintaining the existence of Heroic Spirits requires magicians to continuously expend magical energy?!"

"."

Kenneth cursed under his breath.

In fact, his thoughts on the Holy Grail War were quite complex.

As one of the 'Twelve Monarchs' of the Clock Tower, although his subject was Mineral Science, he was also skilled in Spirit Summoning Magic. Therefore, he knew very well that even Euryphus, the monarch of Spirit Summoning, could not perform Heroic Spirit Summoning, the highest-ranking magic in the Spirit Summoning system, so he, the monarch of Mineral Science, was even less capable of doing so.

But then, a small magic family from the backward Far East, with no fame or influence in the magic world, achieved this. They even joined forces with the Einzbern family to create the omnipotent wish-granting machine, the Great Grail. This incredible existence truly spurred him, the monarch in charge of the Minerals Department.

Therefore, in addition to winning the opportunity to make a wish, he also wanted to prove to the magicians of the Far East that he was the most powerful necromancy magician.

Therefore, ever since he obtained the Command Seals half a year ago, he has been patiently searching for all kinds of relics in the hope of selecting the strongest Servant from them.

Therefore, even after Waver stole Iskandar's artifacts, he was still able to summon Diarmuid in a short time because he possessed far more than one artifact.

However, what he wanted was the strongest, the heroic spirit that could help him defeat all his enemies, and in the European history he was familiar with, Alexander the Great was undoubtedly one of the most famous and powerful figures.

In fact, in the original World War IV, if we exclude Artoria's status as the protagonist, Iskandar would have been the strongest if he hadn't encountered Gilgamesh, who was his natural counter.

Artoria's Excalibur is powerful, but limited by its magic power and characteristics, it cannot shatter Iskandar's army in one strike like the Anti-World Noble Phantasm Ea, nor can it kill tens of thousands of soldiers before its magic power is exhausted.

Although the tens of thousands of Servants summoned by the King's Army had no Noble Phantasms, no classes, and no unique skills, they only had their own attributes.

However, because Iskandar's subordinates included many founders of later empires and renowned generals, many of whom were even more skilled and had higher attributes than Iskandar, they were extremely difficult to deal with if they were all attacked by a group of powerful anti-world Noble Phantasms, as long as they were not countered by them.

Kenneth silently recalled Iskandar's great achievements in history, and after a little thought, he made a decision. That very day, he took his fiancée and a spare set of holy relics and flew to Macedonia.

There are no rules in this world that prohibit magic from being used against ordinary people. With him and his fiancée personally taking action to find Iskandar's relics, the speed will definitely be much faster than him slowly spending money to acquire them.

Upon arriving in Macedonia, he used a simple enchantment magic trick to control the curator of the local museum and the largest private collector, getting them to mobilize their connections and influence to help him search.

What he didn't know was that his decision also saved him from a considerable trouble: after some thought, Kitagawa Yu didn't immediately take action against Gilgamesh and Hassan the Hundred-Faced, but instead prepared to fly to London to find him.

Although he was 60-70% confident that he could defeat Gilgamesh when he was off guard by having Lancelot hold him off head-on and Medusa launch a sneak attack.

But what if Gilgamesh hadn't been careless?

As we all know, a 'serious flash' is still quite terrifying!

Therefore, Kitagawa Yu felt that they should play it safe and continue to strengthen their own camp.

For example, when Kenneth is about to obtain the Iskandar relic, steal it and give it to Waver, or directly test the bond between the 'Queen' and the Emperor, causing Waver to summon Iskandar directly.

If Iskandar's Master is Waver instead of Kenneth, he is more than 90% confident that he can persuade Iskandar to join forces with him to fight Gilgamesh.

Despite his boldness in becoming Alexander the Great and establishing such a vast empire, Iskandar was not a reckless man without strategy, nor was he a knight or warrior who preferred one-on-one duels.

After learning that Gilgamesh's Noble Phantasm was a natural counter to him, he would never refuse to join forces with Kitagawa Yu if he still wanted to fulfill his wish.

In addition, the Moon Spirit Essence Liquid, a supreme magical artifact unique to the Kenneth family that combines offense and defense, also seemed quite good to him.

Putting aside everything else, the ability to automatically defend itself is perfect for a magician like Elena, whose physical body is relatively fragile.

He hadn't forgotten that in this Holy Grail War, there were also Kiritsugu Emiya and Maiya Hisau, who lacked martial ethics and preferred to use firearms, especially sniper rifles and bombs.

In the original storyline, Kiritsugu Emiya blew up the entire hotel that Kenneth had booked in order to deal with him.

If Kenneth hadn't had the Moon Spirit Essence Liquid, he would have been dead long ago.

Although Elena has a magic shield, it's impossible for her to keep it on 24 hours a day, even while she's sleeping.
