In order to become a Heroic Spirit, I had no choice but to cause trouble in history.

The three parties... have already joined forces!

There were still many civilians in the city, but even more numerous were the endless soldiers.

These soldiers came from who knows where, but they were probably created through the Holy Grail.

"Mr. Hijikata Toshizo, I beg you and the other two to surround the palace!" Fujimaru Ritsuka said to Hijikata Toshizo.

"Miss Boudica, Miss Jing Ke! Please continue to lead the army and fight against the remaining enemy forces in the city!" Turning her head, Fujimaru Ritsuka gave the order again.

"The rest of you—follow me into the palace!" Nero shouted.

"Please wait a moment!" Lawrence suddenly shouted.

"Let me... clean up some troubles first."

tread--

The sound of high heels rang out, and Lawrence's magic field was set up.

“This magic array is built right on this spiritual vein,” Lawrence said seriously. “However… it’s no challenge for me.”

Lawrence circled the palace and found a spot.

She discovered a small creature with eyes.

There are many types of magic arrays, but all magic arrays need something to rely on in order to be effective.

These objects can be magical props, such as Lawrence's Gem, magical incantations, or familiars.

For example, the one right in front of us.

"As expected of that person's magic array, even the object it possesses is so disgusting." Lawrence stomped the little thing to death, and the blood didn't stain her crystal high heels.

"Ugh—" Rafe, who was hiding in the shadows and secretly making a summoning circle, felt a pain in his hand.

"Alright, Master, Your Majesty, let's enter the palace." Lawrence nodded.

Nero took a deep breath.

Upon entering the hall, the group saw the figure sitting on the throne.

“The progenitor of the gods… Romulus.” Nero looked at the strong and valiant Roman progenitor with respect and fighting spirit in his eyes.

"You've come, my child. Have you thought it through... and decided to submit to me (Rome)?" Romulus said with a gentle smile as he looked at the beautiful rose.

“I have made my decision. This is not to disrespect you, my ancestor.” Nero drew his red sword from his waist and pointed it at his ancestor.

"I... will punish you."

The resolute words of the Rose Emperor echoed in the empty palace.

"...Why not submit to me (Rome)?" Romulus stood up. "I (Rome)...among the true Rome, aren't I?"

"I know that you, as the ancestral god of Rome, are wherever you are... but that is no longer the present, but a thing of the past." She planted her red longsword before her and declared loudly, "As for now, I—am the one and only [Rome]!"

Romulus was taken aback.

Suddenly I laughed.

His thick arm reached out and grasped at the void, and the strange red spear reappeared in his hand.

"Then, defeat me! Nero (Rome)!"

The magic within him was already stirring.

"Watch out, Master!" Mash hurriedly stood in front of everyone. "This is Noble Phantasm release!"

"Everything—everything!!!"

Romulus plunged his crimson spear into the ground!

"They will all be pierced by my (Rome's) spear!!!"

"Imaginary Login! Simulated Noble Phantasm - Link!"

"My spear—reaching all things [Magna Voluisse Magnum]!!!"

boom--

Boom boom boom—

Boom boom boom boom boom——————

"Master, be careful! This attack has a huge range, Mash can't defend against it!!!" Camilla said, frowning.

“Miss Lawrence!” Fujimaru Ritsuka shouted.

"Understood!"

"This is the culmination of my life's work! I am an artist—and a doctor!"

Lawrence transformed into a giant human-shaped diamond!

It radiates a light that illuminates everything!

"Accept my brilliance!!!"

"Imperfect luxury, a harmful thing that is cut off [Non c'era mancanza di interni ed esterni]!!!"

hum-

All three Noble Phantasms took effect simultaneously.

Huge tree roots shoot skyward from the ground!

Just as Camilla said, the range of this Noble Phantasm is too large! So large that Mash simply cannot defend against it!

Lawrence smiled and said, "This is a new effect I gained from understanding my own Noble Phantasm!"

"We'll be fine, at most we'll get a little hurt!"

Lawrence, at Chaldea, studied his Noble Phantasm with Leonardo da Vinci.

It was discovered that by modifying the way Noble Phantasm is released to a certain extent, it is possible to do things that were previously impossible.

That is—a pseudo-spiritual core!

The effect is roughly equivalent to a time-limited continuation of a battle.

Mashu only needs to shield Ritsuka and Nero from the damage, which will greatly reduce the pressure!

The enormous tree roots continued to extend, tearing the entire palace to shreds.

But Chaldea—accepted this attack!

Chapter 465 Demon God - Floros

The giant tree created by Romulus's Noble Phantasm (spear) vanished into magic, and everyone returned to the ravaged ground.

Camilla clutched her chest, feeling somewhat uncomfortable.

A gemstone shattered at her chest.

Zuocun and Simonetta are also in the same situation.

That is the [Pseudo-Spirit Core] created by Lawrence's Noble Phantasm.

As for Lawrence, he's now lying on the ground.

She had been maintaining a large-scale magical array since she was outside the city, and after using a powerful Noble Phantasm, she's now completely dead.

"Miss Simon, Mr. Samurai, Miss Camilla, Mashu—!" Fujimaru Ritsuka, holding Lawrence who was almost unconscious, looked at Romulus with some anger, "Target Romulus—Crush him!"

The crane's wings were unsheathed, its claws grew, and with a ramming shield, the Iron Maiden was thrown out as well.

Romulus, the ancestor of the Roman gods, did not move an inch.

Nero stared blankly at Romulus.

Zheng—

The crane's wings pierced the spirit core.

Romulus, however, paid no attention to it, or rather, he had no intention of fighting in the first place. This Noble Phantasm was just for... testing.

The only person he cared about was his own child, the Rose Emperor, Nero Claudius.

“Child…” He gazed at Nero with loving, gentle eyes.

“God Ancestor…!” Nero seemed to be moved and took two steps forward.

"Without a doubt, you are the Rome of today... Even facing danger that could have killed you, you still managed to look at me (Rome) with such anger and courage... Ah, so beautiful... Let me embrace you, I (Rome) will embrace the beast within you too..."

“God Ancestor…” Nero extended his hand.

However, Romulus had already vanished in a golden light, transformed into magical molecules.

She seemed somewhat lost and dejected, as if she were lamenting.

"Father of Rome..."

"Ritsuka, there's a problem." Dr. Roman's voice was anxious. "I... I can't detect the Holy Grail here. What about you? Can you see the Holy Grail with the naked eye at the place where Romulus died?"

Fujimaru Ritsuka realized what was happening and immediately became serious: "No, we... haven't observed anything on our end!"

“This…” Mashu frowned. “Romulus at the city gate does indeed emit magical energy fluctuations similar to the Holy Grail, but… where is the Holy Grail?”

The battle continues until the Holy Grail is confirmed to have been retrieved!

"Are you... looking for this?"

The sound came from somewhere unknown.

Something appeared amidst the ruins of the palace.

Behind the ruins, a person dressed in green clothes and wearing a green hat came out.

“…Leef!” Mashu looked at the figure with a hint of anger in her eyes.

"Good afternoon, everyone." As always, Rafe appeared with a fake smile that was sickeningly insincere.

What's noteworthy is that he's holding the Holy Grail in his hand.

"Samura, Miss Camilla, Miss Simon!" Fujimaru Ritsuka called out, her eyes fixed on Rafe. "Surround him! Today—we absolutely cannot let him escape!"
