In Type-Moon, it all starts with adopting Sakura.

The Knight of the Righteousness stared in disbelief at the white lance that had blocked his attack, feeling the magic flowing within it and being utterly shocked.

Because there's absolutely no mistake, this is the Lion King's Holy Lance, but, but why? Why is it...?

Appearing here?!

He turned his head in disbelief, only to see a pair of emerald eyes and a head of flowing golden hair staring intently at him, their gaze filled with anger and coldness.

"king……"

He was about to speak when he saw the silver-white holy spear, radiating a holy light, suddenly withdraw like a nimble snake. Then, a slender, pale hand guided the spear straight through his chest.

In an instant, the core of his magical power shattered completely with a crisp "crack," like fragile glass.

The massive knight's body, having lost its support, seemed to have had its soul ripped out, turning into a pile of scattered armor that crashed to the ground with a "thud," kicking up a cloud of dust and announcing the complete demise of its life.

"..."

She didn't speak, she didn't say anything... because for Artoria at this moment, silence was the greatest form of anger.

Although King Arthur of Britain only occupied a small part of her travel memories, it was the beginning of everything, one of the very few memories she cherished. Now, at this moment, in this place, it was being recalled again in this way. How could she not be furious?

Having just arrived at the battlefield, she looked at four familiar figures on the other side who had already begun a fierce battle.

Gawain, Tristan, Percival, and... Crowley.

He really is here; my premonition was right.

"Ritsuka, Mashu, you two organize the evacuation of these refugees. I'm going to check over there!"

"Huff... As expected of Senior Artoria, she's so fast."

Ritsuka and Mashu arrived behind them, panting heavily.

Seeing the mother and child left behind, Mashu breathed a slight sigh of relief.

"Although I clearly saw it, I couldn't catch up... Luckily, Miss Artoria was there."

Without pausing, after rescuing the mother and child, Artoria rushed towards the city wall.

"But didn't the doctor say we should retreat?"

Seeing Artoria continue deeper into the area, Mash's face showed worry.

'There's no way around it! This is a terrible situation, and Miss Artoria simply can't possibly stay calm!'

Roman's projection knew Artoria's current situation better than anyone else.

Seeing the Knights of the Round Table in this state, it would be strange if she, as King Arthur, wasn't anxious.

Knowing the opponent's strength, Roman issued new instructions without hesitation.

"Ritsuka, Mashu! No, you two should lead the refugees and break through to the west! The magical reaction at the city gate is too terrifying; you absolutely cannot go there!"

"But... Senior Artoria, she..."

"Don't worry, she'll be fine! I'll take care of her over there."

Roman's tone was firm and unquestionable.

……

—Whoosh!

A piercing whistling sound flashed by, cutting through the air and leaving deep, claw-like furrows in the ground beneath their feet.

"Hmm? You really are extraordinary..."

Having blocked countless magical energy blades from his opponent, Rovi's skill level made Tristan feel quite troubled, and he realized even more that he would definitely not be able to capture him without using his true abilities.

Then, this guy made the right decision decisively and promptly released his Noble Phantasm.

"—Failnaught!!"

With Tristan's low growl, more invisible sonic blades arrived beside Rowe in the next instant, intending to slice him to pieces.

"You really don't hold back... It seems the 'Reversal' blessing has completely warped your mind."

“There’s no other way. This is the only way I can subdue you.” Tristan said coldly, “Don’t worry, I will spare your life later. After all, you are the one chosen by the king.”

"You think you can subdue me like this?"

Lovi raised an eyebrow slightly, intending to block Tristan's Noble Phantasm, when suddenly...

dong dong! !

His heart suddenly raced, and then a colorful light emanated from his chest.

The Avalon within him seemed to resonate with something on this battlefield, which distracted him unintentionally.

—Whoosh! Whoosh!

In a mere instant, the invisible sonic blade arrived. Because he was distracted, Luo Wei didn't have time to deflect the attack. He was just about to use his magic to open the barrier and withstand it when the sonic blade, which was powerful enough to cut through steel, did not land on his body.

“You’re way too late, Crowley! And the place where we’re reunited is anything but romantic, in a place like this. You really are something else.”

"I'm so sorry we didn't meet again in the flower field, my silly queen..."

"Hmm, I'll settle the score with you later."

The golden-haired knight king's figure darted across the battlefield from the side and into the center, standing alone like a shield in front of Lovi. Facing several invisible sonic blades, the blinding light emanating from the holy lance completely blocked them, steadily catching Tristan's terrifying Noble Phantasm attack.

"Actually... I'd rather hear you call me Artoria or Lily than the title 'Queen of Fools'."

"But why did the Knights of the Round Table turn into this civil war? You have to explain the situation to me later. That Romani guy never said there would be Knights of the Round Table in this singularity!"

After performing a classic damsel-in-distress act, Artoria casually put her arm around Lovi's shoulder and led him a few steps back to avoid being accidentally injured by her own holy spear.

"This way, sir!"

Before he could catch up with Artoria, Lovi was mistaken for a refugee rescued by Artoria by Mash, who had rushed over. Mash grabbed his hand and started running westward. Meanwhile, Fujimaru Ritsuka was actively organizing the refugee evacuation, but the terrified refugees were obviously not very cooperative, so the scene remained chaotic.

"Little eggplant?"

Upon seeing Mash, Lovi instinctively uttered a sentence.

"Huh? My name is Mashu, not Little Eggplant. Anyway, come with us and leave."

"Gudako is here too... Oh, so this world is Gudako."

Seeing the familiar duo, Lovi simply nodded slightly, and then, under Mashu's shocked gaze, he demonstrated what it meant to have a saintly physique by pulling his arm away from her pull, leaving Ritsuka looking on in astonishment.

"Are you a follower? But the doctor said..."

"I'm not a Servant, I'm a traveler who's come from all over the world to find someone. Someone in your Chaldea should be able to tell what I am, but I won't explain any more for now. You should run away if you can. Although Artoria can handle the Knights of the Round Table by herself, the guy inside is coming out soon, so I'm going to help her."

After saying that, Luo Wei pulled his hand away and rushed back to Artoria's side.

"What kind of riddle teller is this?"

Fujimaru Ritsuka looked puzzled. She couldn't understand what Luo Wei meant at all, but judging from his words, he seemed to be an acquaintance of that mysterious senior, Artoria.

As for what he said about someone who could recognize him...

At this moment, Dr. Roman was drenched in sweat.

He murmured, his voice trembling slightly, "No, it can't be wrong, it's the Lord's intuition... The Divine Child has appeared, I've definitely messed up this time..."

"and……"

He quickly touched his fingers to make sure the ring was still under his glove before he breathed a sigh of relief.

For a fleeting moment, he was completely stunned by the familiar gold ring on Luo Wei's hand.

……

At this very moment, the battle between Percival and Gawain had reached a fever pitch.

Even without its liberation, the Spear of Longinus was in no way inferior to Gawain's Sword of Victory; the difference between the two weapons was negligible.

However, with an absolute value three times that of Gawain, Percival should theoretically be unable to withstand it.

Gawain felt that Percival was on steroids today, with terrifying strength. Every shot he took required his full strength to catch. Although he was still no match for him, he couldn't easily defeat him.

The Earth Angel's greatest strengths lie in its defense and power. Compared to the two fire elemental enchantments and soul damage enhancement that Michael gave to Kay, what it brings to Percival is the most straightforward and unpretentious all-around numerical improvement.

As long as his feet are firmly planted on the ground, Percival's strength and agility will be enhanced, and he will become stronger the more he fights.

Faced with a numerical monster like Gawain, Percival also transformed into a numerical monster to suppress and counter him.

"You actually have a blessing too?" Gawain noticed something was off about Percival.

“That’s right! It is a blessing, but my blessing is different from the curse that binds your will. This is a sacred blessing! It comes from the power of angels! So… I will no longer be easily defeated by you, Gawain.”

"You... stop talking big! Don't think you can close the gap between us with just a mere blessing!"

Gawain continued to slash with his sword, an angry expression on his face.

"I didn't intend to close the gap, nor did I intend to defeat you. I just needed to... stall you! Sun Knight!!"

"You bastard..."

Just as Gawain was about to say something more, Tristan on the other side was in trouble.

--call out!!

With a flash of golden light, Tristan's body was sent flying like a cannonball, crashing into the battlefield between Gawain and Percival, carrying with it many pebbles.

"Tristan!!"

Upon seeing the disheveled figure of the red-haired hero, Gawain's face showed an expression of disbelief. He never expected that Tristan would be defeated so quickly.

Upon seeing this, Percival exclaimed, "Truly worthy of being called a Saint, he so easily defeated Tristan, who possesses blessings and top-tier strength."

"On the other side..."

However, when the two turned their heads to look at the direction where the dust was rising, the two who had been at each other's throats suddenly widened their eyes and showed extremely surprised expressions.

"King, King... King? The Lion King? No, something doesn't feel right..."

Percival found it hard to believe.

"No, no... What's going on? How... how did you get here?"

Gao Wen was so frightened that his heart began to waver, and he even started to take his steps backward involuntarily.

"Since you are all here, why can't I be here? It's been a long time, Lord Gao Wenqing and Lord Percival."

Artoria, holding the white holy lance, approached Gawain and Percival with a serious expression; her mood was at its worst.
