The Holy Grail War Blessed by the Gods

"I can't stand by and watch anymore, so let's just make a scene."

Finn, who had been standing to the side, said regretfully, gripping his spear in one hand and stepping forward.

The cursed magic spear that formed the cage was completely severed by a sweeping attack, and Diarmuid took the opportunity to escape the range of the attack.

However, he was a little too late and was hit by the blast, losing half of his body and flying out of the air, landing on the sand.

"Woo..."

Dirumdo, who had fallen to the ground, cried out in pain and tried to force himself to stand up despite the agony.

"You made a careless mistake, Diarmuid. Leave it to me, I'll heal your wounds."

Finn held his spear and stood protectively in front of Diarmuid, while throwing a water bag at him with his other hand.

Chapter Two: Anguish

"Woo..."

Dirumdo lowered his head in shame and accepted the water bag that was thrown to him.

"Thank you, my lord. And please allow me to apologize; I am so sorry that we were defeated."

Dirumdor drank the water from the water pouch, and his injuries were immediately healed, but his regret and shame could not be erased.

As for the water in the water bag, it comes from Finn's Noble Phantasm, "The Many Lives He Holds in His Hands" (Uisce Beatha).

The story of how water scooped up by Finn's hand could grant amazing healing abilities was transformed into a Noble Phantasm.

No matter what kind of water it is, as long as Finn scoops it up with his hands, it will become something with restorative effects and the ability to detoxify.

For convenience, Finn stores the water he scoops up in his water bag, since there may not be a chance to find water during a battle.

“This is not your fault, Diarmuid. Your opponent possesses a very strong divinity, to a degree that is almost indistinguishable from that of a god.”

Despite saying this, Finn showed no fear whatsoever, after all, even gods had been defeated by Finn at one point.

This great Irish hero even defeated his own god-ancestor, the god of war with silver arms, Nuada, and also killed the fallen god, Arian.

In the old man’s dialogue, Finn defeated the entire Danu race, including the then-king Boher, in one year and three months.

In the poetry, Finn is one of the five most outstanding druids, poets, healers, sages, warriors, magnanimous men, and kings.

Of course, this is also because the main person praised in the old man's dialogue is Finn, but this also shows Finn's status and ability.

“I’ve heard of you, Finn McCool. You’ll be quite an interesting opponent. If you don’t want to die, you’d better go all out and fight me.”

Although Diarmuid was an acquaintance, Manshu's interest was definitely more focused on Finn.

However, the leader of the Fiona Knights seems somewhat nonchalant now, and even now, he doesn't seem to have much fighting spirit.

That won't do! That's part of the fun; missing out on the experience will only make people feel frustrated.

Therefore, as Manju shouted, he reached out and placed his hand on the spear in front of him, directly releasing this Noble Phantasm.

"Let's borrow the executioner's methods to create a magnificent battlefield for me, Kaziki Bey!"

The cursed magic spear covered the entire earth the instant the magic surged, extending from Manju as the center, and the cursed magic spear transformed into a forest that grew from the ground.

At this moment, both Celtic soldiers and mechanized soldiers on this land have become the fruits of this Demon Spear Forest.

When this Noble Phantasm is unleashed, its target is all the enemies on this land. Ordinary soldiers are naturally unable to dodge the cursed magic spear that thrusts from the ground.

Meanwhile, Diarmuid, who managed to dodge in time, and Diarmuid who directly severed the Demon Spear with his spear, were being relentlessly pursued.

"The Piercing Lord? He's an unfamiliar hero, but logically he shouldn't have such a strong divine aura."

Finn looked puzzled, but the Noble Phantasm he used to clear the battlefield didn't pose much of a threat to him. He simply swung the gun in his hand and carved a path for himself.

“I’m not joking, Finn. If you’re going to let this end in boredom, death won’t be the real end.”

Manshu, who picked up the spear, naturally saw that Finn hadn't changed much, and said with slight dissatisfaction.

"It's not a lie, there's also a smell that's closely related to death."

Finn naturally understood and realized the meaning behind it, so he had to straighten his expression.

"They are indeed a troublesome opponent... Oh well, it doesn't matter. Let's get serious and win!"

The sapphire-like color shimmered on Finn's gun, and the image of an eagle appeared in the eyes of the valiant warrior.

May the blessings of the Celtic gods be with you always!

Finn, gripping the gun handle tightly, didn't wait long; the wise warrior had already finished his assessment.

Amidst the rolling yellow sands, the surging waters washed away the cursed magic spears that stood in their way, but there was one spear that remained unstoppable.

"That's right, that's it! Face me with all your might, and defeat me with everything you have!"

Manju let out a loud laugh, but the spear in his hand was even louder than his laughter.

The cursed spear, imbued with an aura of death, looked like an evil weapon that would emerge from the shadows in a story.

But the gun here was different; it thrust straight through the center, a simple and ordinary stab.

But if anyone actually believed that, they would likely be pierced through by that spear without any resistance.

Because the magical water stream blocking their path had been pierced directly, the resulting terrifying shockwave had stirred up a yellow sandstorm.

Finn merely bent his knees slightly, then raised his spear and swung it forward. The two spears collided, almost shaking the space around them, creating arc-shaped ripples that spread outwards.

The water flowing from Finn's spear is made of magic, the same water controlled by Nuada, the god of war.

Wielding the magical spear that defeated the god Allen, Finn also used druidic magic to aid his battle, thus preventing himself from being overwhelmed by Manjus's attacks.

However, the immense pressure continued to weigh on Finn. Manju, relying on the cursed spears that kept emerging from the ground, gradually distracted Finn and thus closed the distance between them.

Finn was wielding a spear that was over two meters long. The sensible thing to do was to close the distance, so Manshu kept getting closer to Finn's body.

The cursed spear struck Finn with lightning speed, like a venomous snake, and in just two or three rounds, Finn was already at a disadvantage.

"Indeed, he is a formidable opponent. Even the great Finn McCool was temporarily at a disadvantage."

Dirumdo rested briefly to recover from his injuries, and once he was feeling better, he immediately returned to the battlefield.

"My king, let me fight alongside you once more, against the mighty enemy. Let me enjoy unparalleled glory, and offer my honor to you!"

9. "It is indeed a long time since we fought side by side, my knight, Diarmuid."

Zero Diarmuid charged straight into the battlefield, intending to separate Manjusaka and Finn and alleviate the disadvantage his lord was in.

"Perfect, it's starting to look decent. I should enjoy it now. Don't blame me for being ruthless if I get killed before I've used my full strength."

Bi Manshu immediately created distance, allowing Diarmuid to insert himself in front of Finn.

Then he raised the demonic spear, which was wreathed in cursed energy, and threw it out like a javelin.

②“This battle cannot be offered to Odin, so I will offer it to myself. Until I am satisfied, even death shall not be your choice.”

The spear that flew out did not go towards Diarmuid or Finn, but was to fly over their heads and land behind them.

Finn was not careless at all. Before Manshu's voice fell, he had already raised the gun in his hand and threw it in the same way, with water flowing from his hand.

The blue water flow formed a spiral pattern, which was struck by the thrown spear and the magic spear flying through the air, thus blocking the ritual initiated by Manju.

But this was merely a pastime, for Manshu held in his hand a gun constructed of a cage of death.

"Or you have another option, which is to kneel down and beg for a way to survive before the Lord of the Underworld."

Manju held the Death Cage in his hand, and as he swung it forward, lightning struck down, as if he wanted to take the soul with him.

Diarmuid, who was blocking the way, was directly knocked back. Manshu didn't even let the gun in his hand collide with his gun, and directly triggered lightning to strike him.

If Finn's magic hadn't been used in time to protect Diarmuid, that attack would have temporarily rendered him unable to fight.

However, the difference is not significant. The two Servants on this battlefield are still enduring the torture of the demonic spears that are being used to execute them on the ground.

Diarmuid, who once eloped with his lord Finn's fiancée, chose to abandon Finn to his fate out of resentment.

Although both had their own reasons, there was no doubt that asking these questions were crimes.

Therefore, they were all true targets of elimination. The oppressive and destructive power of the demonic spears on the ground was constantly increasing, and once they pierced their bodies, they brought immense pain.

Under Manju's lightning-fast attacks, neither of them could dodge at the same time. One wrong move and they would suffer immense pain, followed by even greater pain.

"Continuing like this offers no chance of winning; it's something we can't change, so we have to retreat."

Panting heavily, Finn made his judgment and turned to his knight, shouting:

"Stop them, then prepare to retreat."

Although the order sounded like it was asking Diarmuid to sacrifice himself to cover the rear, Diarmuid didn't hesitate at all, brandishing his twin spears to block Manjusaka, and even ignoring the demonic spears on the ground.

The gun brought more physical pain than anything else, but that physical pain was enough to suppress and endure.

"Experience the power of a demonic strike capable of slaying even fallen gods—Mac an Luin, the Undefeated Purple Grass!"

With his own knights standing in front of him, Finn unleashed his Noble Phantasm without hindrance.

This Noble Phantasm, after being enhanced by the magic of the Druids, does indeed possess considerable power.

Manshu also slowed down, inserted the gun in his hand into the ground, and used magic to create many cages in front of him.

The surging torrent of water easily dispersed the cages, but beneath them, the earth trembled, and crimson magical fluctuations parted the water.

Chapter Three: Solar Eclipse

"A very decisive decision, but it was too late if they hadn't chosen to retreat immediately."

Manshu stopped the water gun that was being sprayed at him and clicked his tongue in amazement.

Unfortunately, this was not a meaningful move or action, because once they launched their attack, there was no possibility of escape.

While singularities can be considered a form of Holy Grail War, there are significantly fewer things to consider, allowing everyone to act as they please.

The idea of ​​simply using a Noble Phantasm to block the way and then running away is difficult for Manju to achieve.

Both its tracking ability and mobility fully support Manju to continue the pursuit.

"It seems they have no intention of letting us go. That's troublesome."

As Finn fled, he noticed a fixed gaze on his back, so he turned around and unleashed a druidic spell on the Celtic soldiers who were still alive.

"These nameless warriors are at least monsters with some combat power. Even if they were to face Servants again, they would be easily defeated, but at least they would play a role in hindering the enemy."

Since it's a monster that infinitely multiplies based on the Queen, using a few thousand as cannon fodder won't have much of an impact.
