In Britain, the Noble Phantasm: Divine Key

“Children who don’t listen to people and throw tantrums really need to be taught a lesson.” Yanan held the Black Abyss, his eyes gradually turning cold. “Let me make this clear beforehand: even if you cry later, I won’t stop.”

Chapter Nineteen: Divine Speed, Suppression, Star of Eden!

Upon hearing Yanan's words, Melusin didn't say anything, but her aura became even colder, like a cold wind in the dead of winter, making one's cheeks sting.

Her figure flickered slightly, and she vanished from her spot in an instant. A chilling killing intent suddenly erupted, like a peerless sword, piercing straight towards Yanan's brow.

A strong sense of crisis erupted instantly, but Yanan's expression remained unchanged. He completely ignored the chilling killing intent rushing towards him from the front, and with a flick of his black spear, he thrust it behind him.

clang!

The crisp sound echoed far, far away in the vast sky. Melusin crossed her arms in front of her, using her arm armor to block Yanan's sudden shot. Her eyes, hidden beneath her visor, were filled with shock and confusion.

"You seem quite surprised?" Yanan said calmly.

"..." Melusine remained silent.

She was naturally surprised, because this was a trump card she had been thinking about for a long time.

Use your speed advantage to feign a frontal attack, then launch a surprise attack from another direction while the enemy is fully focused.

With this move, she was almost invincible in previous battles, and basically no one could react in time.

Even if they react in time, they will be severely injured by her because they will not have time to defend themselves.

But now, her trump card has been defended against by this outsider so easily.

The opponent completely ignored the threat coming from the front and even fired a shot to interrupt her offensive rhythm, forcing her to choose to defend.

From that angle, if she had continued to lunge forward, she would definitely have been pierced through by that gun.

It felt as if the other party knew from the beginning where she would attack, and was therefore prepared and waiting for her to come.

If it wasn't a coincidence, it could only mean that this man had extensive combat experience and saw through her tactics at a glance...

But how could someone who almost drove Tristan to his death rely solely on luck...?

Thinking of this, Melusin put away the disdain in her eyes, replacing it with a deep sense of seriousness.

This man is probably not easy to deal with...

No wonder they're an enemy even Merlin found troublesome...

“Being distracted in battle is not a good habit.” Yanan raised his hand and flicked his wrist, the black spear tip scraping against the arm armor and creating a bright spark, before piercing straight towards Melusin’s brow.

Melusin was startled and instinctively leaned back, her petite body forming an arch, as the tip of Black Abyss's spear almost grazed her nose.

Although she narrowly escaped the fatal blow, Melusin's visor was still knocked away by Black Abyss.

Without hesitation, she activated her speed, her figure disappearing from the spot in an instant, instantly creating a relatively safe distance between herself and Yanan.

With her visor removed, Melusin's true face was revealed to Anan.

Even with Yanan's discerning eye, one had to admit that it was indeed an extremely beautiful face. Although it appeared slightly immature, its exquisite features were almost flawless from any angle.

It's foreseeable that when she grows up, she'll definitely be a beauty who brings ruin to the country...

Noticing Yanan's gaze, Melusin couldn't help but reveal a hint of disgust and contempt in her eyes.

Humans are indeed humans; these deeply ingrained flaws can never be changed...

Yanan naturally noticed Melusin's gaze, but his expression remained calm.

The pursuit of beauty is a human instinct, and he didn't think there was anything wrong with his behavior just now.

Let alone him, even if it were any other girl standing here, she would still be unable to resist taking a second look.

Melusin took a deep breath, and a huge magical power suddenly surged from her body.

Yanan frowned slightly. Was he about to unleash a powerful attack?

Just then, his vision blurred slightly, and he discovered that Melusin in front of him had split into two!

A clone!? Or an illusion...?

Anan was taken aback by this sudden change, and then saw the two Melusins ​​in front of him split into four.

Eight, sixteen, thirty-two...

Almost instantly, dozens of Melusins ​​appeared in front of Anan and surrounded him!

No, these aren't clones, but afterimages left behind by high-speed movement... Yanan gripped the Black Abyss tightly, his expression becoming slightly solemn.

He was already surprised by the speed Melusin had displayed, but he never expected that it wasn't even her limit...

Dozens of Melusin stared coldly at Anan, and the next moment, they all moved at once and pounced on Anan.

Because of the sheer speed, Anan couldn't determine which one was the true form of the enemy, and could only wield the Black Abyss to defend against every attack from each foe.

On the ground, Fujimaru Ritsuka and Mashu looked at the besieged Yanan, their faces filled with visible anxiety.

"There was only one a moment ago, how did so many suddenly appear? Are they enemy Noble Phantasms?"

“Unfortunately, that’s not it.” Roman looked at the red dots on the screen that were almost a blur of afterimages, and his expression turned bitter. “If I’m not mistaken, those should be afterimages left behind by the enemy after moving at high speed, probably used to confuse the enemy.”

Fujimaru Ritsuka's breath hitched, and her eyes widened instantly: "Doctor, you're not kidding, are you? Is that guy really that fast?"

“I also hope this is fake.” Roman lowered his head.

Fujimaru Ritsuka and Mashu exchanged a glance, both seeing obvious shock in each other's eyes.

They couldn't imagine what kind of speed was needed to achieve such an effect.

If this is true, then the other person's physical abilities are simply terrifying...

What frustrates Fujimaru Ritsuka even more is that, under these circumstances, they are completely unable to offer any help to Anain.

Regardless of whether they can even fly, judging by the speed the other side is displaying, they probably wouldn't even be able to touch a single hair on their head.

This is terrifying! I never imagined that besides the Lion King, Camelot had such a powerful enemy on his side...

Fujimaru Ritsuka, who had initially been full of confidence in Anaen, now couldn't help but feel uneasy.

She couldn't imagine how they would challenge the Lion King if even Anan was defeated...

"Please don't give up hope, senpai!" Mash looked earnestly at Fujimaru Ritsuka. "Mr. Anan is a Grand Servant. I believe he can definitely defeat the enemy!"

“You’re right, Mashu.” Fujimaru Ritsuka shook her head, throwing away all those messy thoughts, and her expression regained its firmness. “Mr. Anahn is a Grand Servant, he will definitely not lose, I believe in him!”

Clang clang clang clang!

The impenetrable clang of metal against metal was like a relentless tide, crashing against Anan one wave after another, seemingly never to cease.

Almost every second, he faced dozens of attacks from all directions.

At first, he planned to find out the other party's true identity, but before long he realized that he was just doing useless work.

These figures are not illusions, but rather the shadows left behind by the other person's high-speed movement. So, in a sense, every figure here is actually her!

Every attack he received was a real and tangible blow to him.

Almost every five seconds, Yanan had to change his armor, because the opponent's attacks were so dense that even with his martial arts skills, he could not completely defend against them.

Because of his speed advantage, his opponent was always able to dodge his attacks in time, leaving him only able to passively take hits and unable to retaliate.

Aside from Scáthach, this was the first time Anann had been completely overwhelmed in close combat like this.

It wasn't that he lacked martial arts skills; it was simply that he wasn't as fast as his opponent.

A hint of helplessness flashed in Yanan's eyes. In some ways, this kind of battle was the most frustrating.

The other party can hit you with impunity, while you can't even touch their shadow.

However, he also knew that such an attack was a huge drain on physical strength and magic power, and the opponent could not continue like this indefinitely; eventually, there would be a time when they could not hold on any longer.

But he's not the type to just passively take a beating...

With a flick of his wrist, a small, deep blue sphere radiating a hazy glow appeared in his hand.

"Eden Star, first rated power, maximum output unleashed!"

A visible halo of light spread out from the Star of Eden, instantly covering an area of ​​ten meters in radius, and enveloping all of Melusin.

All of Melusin's bodies stiffened instantly, and then their figures gradually became ethereal, like ink paintings immersed in water, and soon disappeared without a trace.

One, two, three...

In just a few breaths, all the Melusins ​​vanished without a trace, leaving only the last one.

Without a doubt, this is Melusine's true form.

"What exactly did you do...?"

Feeling the terrifying force pressing down on her back and immobilizing her, Melusin couldn't help but clench her teeth tightly, her big eyes fixed on Anan.

"It's nothing. I just applied a gravity wave a thousand times stronger than gravity to you, preventing you from running around anymore," Yanan said with a smile.

Since the opponent's advantage lies in speed, he only needs to find a way to neutralize that advantage.

Eden Star's gravity control is precisely the nemesis of speed-type players.

No matter how fast a person is, if the force of gravity suddenly increases a thousandfold, they will be firmly pressed to the spot and unable to move.

"You just slashed me with so many swords, now I'm only going to stab you once with a spear, you shouldn't have any objections, right?"

Seeing the unwillingness on Melusin's face, Anan's eyes remained indifferent, and the Black Abyss in his hand fell mercilessly toward Melusin's head.

"Goodbye."

Chapter Twenty: You don't really think you're the only dragon here, do you?

Camelot.

Tristan slowly woke up from his sleep, propped himself up on his elbows, rubbed his slightly throbbing temples, and looked a little confused.

She felt as if she had a very long dream in which she was on a mission and encountered a very scary dark-haired man.

The man was so powerful that she felt despair, as if she were facing a king, and no matter what she did, she couldn't hurt him in the slightest.

In the end, she was forced to commit suicide together with her opponent, but at the last moment, the Imperial Advisor saved her...

"Are you a little more awake?" A calm voice echoed in his ear, startling Tristan, who instinctively felt several black bone spurs emerge from his back.

Fortunately, she quickly realized what was happening and managed to stop herself from doing anything further.
