The perverted knight also wants to protect the world

As expected of a shield soldier, not only the shield, but also the armor on her body absorbed most of the force of Mikiya's attack, so that she did not suffer direct injuries that would cause her to be eliminated.

How nice it would be if I could be defeated like this, Mashu thought in her heart filled with black fog.

With lifeless eyes he stared at Kan'aya who was rushing towards him, as well as Illya and Miyu who were following closely behind him. Even though he was extremely reluctant, the controlled body still raised the snowflake shield in his hand as a symbol of protection.

His trembling lips slowly opened and he uttered a hoarse voice:

"True name, unfold, I stand at the seat of disaster—"

Chapter 129: Inner Choice

Mashu stood in front of the huge city gate, facing the flaming sword, and raised the shield in her hand with a trembling body.

"That is our homeland that can heal all wounds and all resentments. Reveal! [The already distant ideal city (Lord Camelot)!!!]"

The huge chalk city slowly rises in the dark world.

It is an absolute city that gathers wishes, ideals and will.

A barrier of light was erected, it was so sacred and pure, like a dream gate that could not be broken by any attack.

During the long journey, it was this indestructible defense that protected the companions behind him time and time again and blocked powerful attacks time and time again.

only……

【Full Charge! Passion, extreme, explosion! 】

【Take that! The Emperor's Explosive Flame Slash!!!】

The holy sword in Izumi Kan'e's hand dragged the dazzling sun and crashed into the Cretaceous City like a burning comet.

"I'm really sorry, maybe you are more suitable to stand in front of that child than me, but now... I still have to defeat you." The low words came out of Gan Ye's mouth, his arms trembled at a distance under the terrible recoil force, and his hands just held the burning sword.

Qianye had such a feeling in his heart about the dreamlike chalk city.

If I stand behind Mashu as her companion, then I have nothing to worry about, because this wall can definitely block any attack. Even if this attack is enough to destroy a world, it will never be broken.

But now, when he chose to face the sacred Cretaceous City head-on, he had such a feeling.

I can definitely defeat it.

“Hahaaaaaaah——” Roaring loudly with anger, the Explosive Holy Sword in Kanye’s hand burst out with flames like a surge of light, competing with the chalk wall blocking his way.

No additional crystals were needed, and even the support of Illya and Miyu was not needed. Under the attack of the red flame, the seemingly indestructible wall made a crisp sound:

click-

That was the sound of the barrier of light breaking.

The Chalk City symbolizes Mashu's determination to protect it, and is directly related to the girl's mental strength. As long as the girl's heart does not give in, the city wall will never collapse, and the protective city wall will turn into the ultimate defense that can block all attacks.

But now, under Gan Ye's attack, the originally indestructible city wall only lasted for a few seconds before turning into shattered fragments of light all over the sky.

puff-

The sword pierced through the armor and passed through the girl's soft body.

Kaneya held the hilt of the Exploding Holy Sword with one hand and supported Mashu as she fell towards his body.

"Thank you... Mr. Unknown Servant... Senior, I'll leave it to you." The girl's soft voice reached Kanye's ears, and before Kanye even responded, her body turned into spirit particles all over the sky and dissipated into the air.

The sword blade slowly dropped, and Gan Ye looked at his empty palm, his eyes full of contradiction and sadness.

His brain felt like being stabbed by a red-hot iron rod and stirring. The intense pain did not make Gan react at all. He just raised his head and looked at the dark sky silently.

He still didn't remember anything about the girl, but the words came out instinctively.

"Really, not letting people say no is almost a bit too cunning, little eggplant."

……

After the battle with Mashu, everyone was no longer attacked. It seemed that Mashu, who was able to deal a fatal blow to Ritsuka's will, was the last obstacle.

In front of the straight slope leading to Fuyuki Church, Kan'ya and others were taking their final rest.

Of course, when we say rest, it is just to restore the physical strength that has been slightly consumed along the way.

Kaneya looked up at the Fuyuki Church on the mountain. It was not far away, but it was still pitch black. The darkness wrapped in the woods was like the huge mouth of a monster, waiting for its prey to enter.

The black fog that permeated the surroundings was so thick that it seemed like surging black mud, making it difficult to breathe.

He looked to the side and saw that Illya and Miyu had lost their usual childish energy. They were holding their wands tightly in their hands and staring in the direction of the Fuyuki Church, ready for battle.

As for Ritsuka, he was sitting next to a dead tree, with his head lowered, looking very depressed.

Seeing the girl's appearance, Ganye sighed and stood behind Ritsuka silently, leaning against the tree trunk.

For a while, neither of them spoke, and the atmosphere was inexplicably depressing, until...

"Saber, are you leaving?" Ritsuka suddenly broke the depressing atmosphere and spoke.

"Yeah..." Gan Ye answered vaguely.

"I'm really sorry for making you worry. I didn't expect that I would fight with Mashu... Although it was just a shadow, I was still a little shocked." Ritsuka raised his head, with a little sadness on his face, but his eyes were still bright.

The girl raised the corners of her mouth and forced a smile:

"Don't worry, you don't have to worry about me. I just need to calm down for a while and I will recover soon, so don't worry." This sentence is not meant to be bravado.

The bright and determined orange eyes told Kanye that the girl was not confused at all at this moment. Although she was frustrated, it was not a reason for her to give up moving forward.

With this mentality, there is really no need to worry about anything, but...

Gan Ye looked at the slope that seemed to lead to no return without saying a word, with his hands folded across his chest, his palms slightly grasping his arms.

Closing his eyes, scenes from the nightmare appeared before his eyes: the desperate Sagiri, his death, and the terrifying black fog monster.

Everyone told Gan Ye that it was enough and he should go back, but...

Ritsuka's bright eyes, Illya and Miyu's little strength, and Mashu's tears... followed by the nightmare, flashed through his mind.

It's very strange. They obviously didn't have much interaction, and their importance was far less than Sagiri and himself, but why is he so unwilling to accept it?

"Saber, what is the purpose of your fighting?" Ritsuka's voice brought Mikiya back to his senses.

The girl was now looking up at him with a determined gaze, trying to see through the face beneath Kanye's mask.

"I want to protect the people around me and the world they and I live in, so I keep fighting. This time is no exception. I will risk everything I have to repair this singularity... But Saber, you are not from this world. There is no need to take risks with us."

The purpose of the battle? I feel like someone mentioned this recently... Oh, that unreliable senior.

Gan Ye subconsciously touched the dimensional connector on his waist.

Although it was to repay Kyubey for allowing him to reincarnate, this alone should not be enough for him to fight at the risk of his life.

So what was it all for? Looking at Ritsuka's smiling face, Kan'ya always felt that he had grasped the answer, but he still couldn't answer it.

"Saber, it's okay. Don't worry about us. Just follow your heart's decision."

Really, it’s already come to this and you’re still advising me to leave. How much do you want your world to be destroyed?

Gan couldn't help but laugh at the girl's excessive gentleness. It turns out that I am not suitable to be a hero.

But...what the girl said is right, should we follow our inner decision?

"Really? I am such a hopeless idiot." Ganye laughed at himself.

"Huh?" Ritsuka blinked and looked at the hand stretched out in front of her, seeming unable to understand what was happening.

She raised her head and looked at Kanye. Although there was a mask between them, she seemed to be able to see the helpless smile underneath the mask.

"Let's go. We're already here. If I run back like this, I won't be able to face anyone. So I'd better walk with you guys for a while longer."

"But……"

"There's not so many buts. Stand up!" Without giving Ritsuka a chance to speak, Ganye grabbed the girl's delicate hands and pulled her up amid the girl's screams.

Then, holding her collar, he brought Ritsuka in front of Miyu and Illya, who were looking at her in a daze.

"My two young ladies, you have rested enough, it's time for us to set off."

"Really? That's too rough!" Ritsuka angrily kicked Kan'ye's calf, then looked like she was in pain.

Don't underestimate Kamen Rider's defensive power.

Gan Ye smiled proudly in his heart.

"So, Miss Master, who is ready to save the world, what is your answer?"

"Ouch... It hurts, let's go quickly! I'll treat you to some delicious strawberry cake later, Saber~"

Chapter 130: The Empty Dongmu Church

The black fog rolled in.

It was like waves of filth, swallowing up all the light around it, as if it was sinking into a deep dark ocean.

The oppressive air made it difficult to breathe. Kanye and his companions walked on the slope leading to the Fuyuki Church. Their vision around them was completely blocked. Only by releasing the attribute power in their bodies could they open up a small space of less than a few meters in front of them.

Outside this space was a black fog that was so thick it looked like mud.

"Ha...ha..." Ritsuka was surrounded by several people and was breathing heavily.

Even with Illya and Miyu's special magical protection, the black fog that occupied most of the space around her still made it difficult for the girl to breathe.

Illya and Miyu also had shortness of breath, and even Gan had symptoms of tightness in his chest.

This was completely different from the black fog that had no effect on everyone along the way. Everything here seemed to be malicious towards them, trying to drag them into endless darkness.

If this continues, Ritsuka might not be able to hold on before completing this not-too-long road.

Turning his head to look at Ritsuka whose face was covered with sweat, Gan gritted his teeth in annoyance.

"Illya, Miyu, hold on to the Master. I will open a path and rush over in one breath!" The Explosive Holy Sword was in hand, and the red flames reflected on Kan'e's black and white mask, and the firelight was reflected on his golden compound eyes.

Since the attribute power can force back the black fog, then in theory it can also open up a path.

As for the enemy hiding in the darkness? Who knows? Whether it is Illya and the others' magical perception or Kanye's energy detection, they are all in chaos now and can't find anything at all.

Instead of wasting energy here, it is better to break through this barrier as quickly as possible.

"Ha... thank you for your help, Saber." Ritsuka took a deep breath, wiped the sweat from his forehead and said.

At the same time, Miyu and Illya grabbed her shoulders, ready to rush through the black fog-filled slope at full speed while Mikiya cleared a path.

"Leave it to me." Gan Ye nodded, and Sister 45's crystal was inserted into the crystal slot. With a mechanical prompt sound, it flashed with metallic light.

The flames gathered on the hot sword, completely covering the entire sword. The red tail flames gushed out on both sides of the blade. Izumi Kan'ye looked ahead at the black fog blocking his view, stepped forward, and the sword in his hand fell like a storm.

Attribute superposition, mechanical wing tail slash!

laugh--

The huge flaming wave, flashing with dazzling flames, tore through the thick black fog, just like Moses parting the sea, and opened up the way forward.

In front of the charred road opened up by the flames, the Fuyuki City Church stood there like a lonely tower.

"Go!" Izumi Kan'ya shouted in a deep voice, his body transformed into a speeding chariot, stepping on the charred black ground which still had some residual warmth, and striding forward.

Behind him were two little magical girls, holding onto Ritsuka's shoulders and flying at a very low altitude, following closely behind Mikiya.

The torn black fog slowly gathered towards the center, like two high walls about to close, trying to crush all the adventurers who broke into the trap, but Gan Ye and his friends were faster.

Raging flames gushed out from Kan'ye's sword, dragging two red tails as he charged forward, while blocking the black fog that was trying to close. Illya and Miyu took Ritsuka with them, flying without stopping for a moment under the protection of the two tail flames.

Not only was it not an illusion, the slope, which was not too long to begin with, seemed to have been extended several times, extending the distance that originally took a few seconds to traverse to several minutes.

call--

Finally, when Kan'ye and his companions were about to be swallowed up by the gathering black fog again, they broke through the long and dark slope and stepped onto the land in front of the Fuyuki Church.

To say that I suddenly felt enlightened... I can't really say that, after all, everything is still as dark as before.

However, Gan Ye turned around and looked at the surging black fog behind him. At least he no longer had that oppressive feeling of being swallowed up at any time.

"Huh, we're finally here. Is this... the Fuyuki Church?" Illya let out a long breath and looked up at the church standing in the darkness.
