Even conceptual curses are completely exempt.

The reaction that began at this moment was Fujino regaining her original power. Asagami Fujino had the ability to bend objects without touching them since childhood. Despite having such outstanding magician talent, she was regarded as a cursed child because of the villagers' stupidity.

But as her body recovers, Fujino's Mystic Eyes begin to awaken.

Night saw a pair of colorful, deep, and captivating eyes.

"Don't look..." Fujino instinctively stopped her, hurriedly trying to close her eyes.

She must be very ugly now.

However—"Beautiful eyes—if you were to use the power of those eyes, you could surely distort much filth and make this world a better place. Why feel ashamed—this is proof of your innate talent. It is a power to be proud of. Be proud of your strength and beauty; this is the unchanging truth of the world!"

Is it beautiful?

Am I charming? Those devilish eyes of mine.

The next moment, Fujino was moved by these inspiring words and looked at Yoru again.

Although it was not mature enough to control its power, it suddenly realized that it was getting out of control and seemed to be distorting the space around Mr. White Dragon.

Fujino panicked and became frightened... her face suddenly turned deathly pale.

Am I about to accidentally kill my most important friend? Kill the only Heroic Spirit who cares about me and responds to me!

Chapter 44 King Hassan: I'm actually a Berserker! Who took the Assassin rank?

A huge panic began to grow in my heart, no, no, no—!!

Such an ending would be far too tragic, terrifying, and utterly hopeless.

But the more flustered she became, the less she could control her power; she was still too inexperienced.

After Yoru's powerful blessing and support, Fujino, who had not mastered the power of the Mystic Eyes for a long time, was suddenly overwhelmed and went berserk.

Not only were the internal injuries being healed rapidly, but along with the pain came immense talent being drawn out from the young body.

But Fujino was completely overthinking it. With her power, how could she possibly affect the armor formed from the concept of the white dragon's incarnation?

"No problem—this armor is the symbol of the strongest dragon... strong, invincible, the strongest!" An incredibly demonic yet resolute voice rang in Fujino's ears, carrying a will that made people dare not refuse from the bottom of their hearts.

Then Fujino felt the wind rushing past her, and Yoru immediately unfolded white wings of light, carrying Fujino into the sky.

"This sinful place that has caused you so much pain, I will utterly shatter it!" With that, Yoru raised his other hand, which was not holding Fujino.

The next moment, the radiance converged—!

Pure true ether was gathering, and with the long-awaited blessing of Apollo, the god of light, and Helios, the sun god, this armor could gather a large amount of magic power to fight even when acting alone, under the sunlight.

Without using any of Fujino's or the Greater Grail's magic, pure dragon-attribute power condensed in his hand, followed by a burst of destructive white light.

Bang~! ! !

He punched the light bullet down, and the light bullet pierced directly into the ground below.

Boom! A massive flash and intense heat instantly struck the entire Asagami family compound, and a huge cloud of hot sand shot into the sky in the explosion.

at the same time--

Both figures, also in the same city, looked up in the direction of the flash from the explosion.

Brunhilde stared blankly: "No way—?"

She actually sensed her own power (the white dragon) and the master-servant contract over there.

Wait a minute—didn't I kill my own Master? How could this be?

Although I don't know what happened, I should still go and take a look.

Meanwhile, on the other side—a newly arrived, or rather, a self-arrived, summoned spirit residing in an old man's body, without a Master, looked up at the horizon with a frown.

She came seeking the presence of Tiamat, the creator goddess, so that Tiamat might harm humanity in this world. At the crucial moment, she would have to relinquish her crown to deliver the blow that grants life only through death.

But just as he was about to arrive in this world, he detected the aura of more than one beast, and moreover—

"So it's a Berserker class..." The majestic voice of an old man, with a tone similar to that of Kirei Kotomine, rang out. It was Hassan-Sabach, the representative of the Grand Assassin class Servants, the old man of the mountain, who was affectionately called Grandpa and King Hassan by his Masters who deeply loved him.

Although his unique nature allows his strong will to even exempt him from the effects of Berserk, he is not an Assassin-class Servant, and he is not a Grand Spirit Origin Servant now, so he can no longer sacrifice the 'health bar' that Grand Spirit Origin Servant grants Tiamat.

This is going to be troublesome.

If Tiamat cannot grasp the concept of death, then that goddess is virtually invincible. If she remains in the mortal realm for an extended period, she will eventually transform into a calamity that engulfs the entire world.

After closing his eyes and sensing for a moment, Wang Hassan finally realized where the problem lay.

Humanity in this world has long since ceased to concern itself with anything; it seems they have abandoned this place.

Under the influence of some powerful law, the world began to deviate artificially and become uncontrollable.

At this point, he could no longer hear the 'gospel'.

This is a place where even the supreme gods can no longer transmit their voices and will.

Therefore, his descent can only occur through the formal procedures of the Holy Grail War, that is, as a Servant appearing on the side of the original True Holy Grail War.

however--

The Assassin-class servants on the True faction's side have already been taken by someone else.

The old man's gaze turned slightly dangerous, and the pale blue flames flickered beneath the skull mask.

Is there really a Servant more suited to the 'Assassin' class than him?

Typically, aside from a few individuals, the most likely candidates to respond to an Assassin-class summon are the previous Hassan-Sabbahs.

At this moment, the old man, who seemed calm but was actually violent, was starting to lose his temper. As a man of action, he even had the urge to repeat history and cut off someone's head.

However—until the current Assassin-class Servant is found.

The old man looked in the direction from which the white light had come from.

That enormous light illuminated the entire city, completely disregarding the mysterious and untransmitted laws that guarded reality.

That was something that could no longer be explained by a simple gas explosion; the city's leaders were already sweating profusely.

You can't exactly make up an excuse like your own big brother, the beautiful country, just sent a little boy over to play again, can you?

Moreover, the attack exploded directly on the homeland, without even a missile trajectory.

Even church leaders have begun considering stealing all the gas cylinders in the city and then claiming that terrorists have the power to detonate them all at once.

Anyway, there are still many illiterate people in this era, and there isn't much common knowledge. So, this kind of bluffing might actually work and no one would bother to take it seriously.

Great, let's do it this way!

However—if only one flash appears on the horizon, there's a reason to explain it, but what if—there's a second one?

Sensing something amiss, even the presence of a beast, King Hassan set off towards the Asagami family's territory.

With the old man's stats, even if he's not the most suitable Assassin class, he's still a Berserker class that can perfectly utilize his 'stealth' ability.

He happened to be nearby and arrived at the Asagami family's location before Brunhilde.

When they sensed the beastly aura permeating the sky.

It's a beast I've never seen before...!

……

"It's the aura of the sun!!" Although he wasn't a Grand Master and wasn't as sensitive to the aura of beasts, Pharaoh Rasoul II, far away in Tokyo, laughed with delight.

The burst of such intense solar light was like the sun rising from the east.

“I sensed other pharaohs—oh, could it be my most beloved brother, with whom I have long shared a spiritual connection?”

Wait, no—based on the previous situation, that person should also be in Tokyo, belonging to the same camp as me nominally.

Upon realizing this, Rabbi's eyes lit up, and the corners of his mouth immediately curled up into a wide smile.

So it really was another pharaoh!

So many suns have appeared all at once in this era!

This is such a delightful and exhilarating thing!

Chapter 45: It's not a matter of whether he's strong or not; he can kill instantly and also has a non-instantaneous death ability, don't you think?

Beast—no, is it an immature larva?

When he sensed the chilling aura in the sky, but it didn't seem to be entirely there, King Hassan subconsciously mistook the thing under the armor for a young beast that hadn't fully grown up.

Even as young beasts, they still pose a great threat to this world and are not beings that ordinary heroic spirits can deal with.

Anyone who witnesses this chaotic and terrifying scene will know just how terrifying the beast's power is.

But no matter how powerful or how hopeless the enemy may be, we still have to face them.

Avoiding the problem won't solve anything—the old man frowned, determined to test the strength of this young beast before it grew up, to pave the way for future hunters. An unknown beast—the only way to obtain accurate information about it is through battle.

Just as the old man noticed Night, Night also noticed the old man coming from below, wearing a rag cloak. At this moment, King Hassan did not appear in heavy armor, but rather in the form of the old man from Chapter Seven.

The outfit looked somewhat familiar, but it wasn't particularly distinctive, so Yoruichi couldn't immediately place it as her own. However, the aura of a heroic spirit emanating from her was undeniable.

'What is Mr. Haku looking at?' When Fujino noticed Yoru's gaze sweeping downwards, she followed his line of sight and saw an old man.

But in the blink of an eye, the figure vanished from sight. Fujino: —?!

Hallucination?

No, it's not an illusion, but...

Bang! In the sky, Night was suddenly confronted by a familiar figure clad in heavy armor and wearing the skull mask that had been a hallmark of Hassan throughout history. The figure also displayed a wild fighting style that was even more ferocious than that of a knight. After exchanging blows in the air, the two retreated.

Although it was just a suit of armor, Night's strength, symbolizing the power of the white dragon's incarnation, was not low. Both were best at close combat. In this clash, neither had the upper hand. Night, who was holding Fujino in his arms and wielding the divine spear with one arm, even seemed to be in more control.

There is no dialogue, or rather, combat is the most direct form of communication between the Beasts and the Grand Masters.

The old man in the mountains quickly disappeared again. As a Grand Assassin, although he is often jokingly said to be the best stealth mode because he doesn't have much time to stealth and can just go into full power, King Hassan's Presence Concealment is still at the highest level.

Even when Ramses II was in his own temple, possessing a pseudo-omnipotent state, his head would still be severed from his neck from time to time without warning. It could be while he was resting with his eyes closed, or while he was still talking. In the blink of an eye, he would be beheaded, and he could never see where the enemy was. He survived entirely because of his invincible state in the temple.

In the Sixth Singularity, the invincible Pharaoh was beheaded several times in a sorry state while communicating with his Master, Fujimaru Ritsuka.

Although King Hassan is no longer an Assassin-class assassin, his family skills have not diminished at all. Seeing King Hassan suddenly disappear, even Fujino in Yoru's arms thought she had encountered a ghost.

However, the next moment, King Hassan appeared out of nowhere again and launched another attack, which was blocked by the night before disappearing.

Night descended from the sky and placed Fujino on the ground beside her.
