They already have a chat group, why bother with the plot?

"so good."

A hint of envy flashed in Nero's eyes.

As an emperor, who wouldn't yearn to be so beloved by their people, even to the point of being willing to stay by their side after death?

"However, even if I am the only one left, I will show you the glory of my Rome."

Nero's expression turned solemn.

The primordial fire in his hand ignited into a raging inferno.

With the blessing of the breathtaking Golden Theater, its power is amplified exponentially.

Joan of Arc was also waving the flag in her hand.

With a soft shout: My lord is here.

Then, a transparent barrier enveloped everyone.

Seeing the tens of thousands of people charging towards him, Nero advanced instead of retreating, his figure transforming into a fiery red arc as he charged toward the army.

Nero's figure was like a bomb; the moment he landed among the army, it was like a thunderclap, causing a huge cloud of dust to rise.

Rimuru followed closely behind, removing the mask that suppressed his magic.

He raised his fair-skinned sales representative.

Countless water droplets condensed from the void.

Then, he unleashed a powerful attack called 'Wrath of the Gods' on the army of heroic spirits that had been dispatched.

Anything that Nero couldn't react to in time would be pierced and revealed by the light refracted by the water droplets, turning into points of light and dissipating.

With their combined efforts, no one could get close to Nero for a time.

So much so that it was overlooked that Hajime Nagumo was Nero's master.

"As expected of the emperor of the Roman Empire, and that young man named Rimuru, I really want to subdue him."

Looking at the two men who remained calm and composed in the face of tens of thousands of troops, Iskandar sighed with admiration.

“Rider, now is not the time to lament such things!” Waver, the little wife nestled in the arms of the King of Conquerors, said.

Iskandar didn't speak, but simply reached out and pressed Weber's head down.

Then, riding on Busyvaras, he swung his longsword and slashed down at Nero below.

They wanted to rely on the superior size of their cavalry to defeat Nero.

However, just as he thrust his longsword toward Nero...

With a loud "bang!", the immense force sent Iskandar's longsword flying out of his hand.

Iskandar looked up and saw Rimuru in the sky flapping his wings and swooping down toward him.

"Well done!"

Iskandar laughed loudly.

Rimuru also drew out the katana that he had specially commissioned to be forged.

With a 'thud,' using the force of the high-speed landing, Iskandar's warhorse was forced to retreat a few steps.

"That's really powerful."

Iskandar New Curve.

Rimuru looked thin with skinny arms and legs.

I never expected her to be so strong.

But thinking about it, it makes sense. There's a dragon residing inside this guy, so he can't do it without some skills.

Bah!Bah!Bah!

Iskandar wanted to use his cavalry advantage to launch an attack on Limru.

But Rimuru is different from ordinary people in that he has wings.

Therefore, the cavalry's advantage was directly lost, leaving Iskandar struggling to cope.

boom! boom!

Two explosions were heard.

Iskandar and Limruzi paused.

Two small mushroom clouds rose in the distance.

On a flying vehicle, Nagumo Hajime's lips curled into a slight smile.

Looking at the army that had been thrown into chaos, he felt a little smug.

After arriving in Fuyuki City, he didn't just sit idly by.

Furthermore, in modern times, information and data on many firearms can be found online.

In order to have a weapon with a wide range and high destructive power in battle, he studied creation magic and alchemy day and night.

What's in front of you is what he's accomplished these past few days.

To this

Iskandar glanced at her before focusing on the petite figure before him.

“I really underestimated you,” Iskandar said.

"each other."

“Your army’s might has also given us quite a shock,” Rimuru replied.

"Haha, of course, this is the army I am most proud of!" Iskandar laughed.

Then, the Celtic sword in his hand, named "Sparta," crackled with lightning as it slashed towards Rimuru.

Seeing this, Rimuru's eyes flickered, and he manipulated his wings to dodge at a tricky angle.

He then slashed at Iskandar's outstretched arm, which was holding a longsword.

crucial moment

Boom!

Blue lightning descended.

Rimuru was forced to stop what he was doing in order to defend against the lightning.

Looking closely, one could see a divine bull riding on lightning, pulling a chariot, galloping down from the sky.

This bull was the one that stopped Rimuru's attack just now.

"Moo—!!!"

The Thunder Bull roared and manipulated lightning, forcing Rimuru back.

Seizing the opportunity, Iskandar grabbed Weber and then leaped onto the Kamui Wheel.

Fighting Rimuru, who can fly, while riding on horseback is truly frustrating.

Fortunately, he can now fight in the air.

"Let's continue!"

Iskandar looked at Limru, the battle surging.

"Stay with me to the end."

Rimuru was not to be outdone.

then

The two started fighting in the sky.

Compared to the original timeline where Gilgamesh destroyed the Reality Barrier with a single Ea, only to be bound by the Chains of Heaven and die a miserable death.

Iskandar's preference is clearly better for a close, hand-to-hand combat with Rimuru.

far away

Joan of Arc watched Iskandar fight Rimuru back and forth, her mouth slightly agape.

This was the first time she had seen Rimuru fight.

I never expected that her master would be even more terrifying than the servants when fighting.

As time goes by

quickly

The original tens of thousands of troops were visibly slowed down by Nagumo Hajime's missile bombardment.

Although many spears and arrows came flying at us.

But they were all blocked by the Moon and Joan of Arc.

As a king and commander, Iskandar was deeply saddened to watch his soldiers gradually retreat from the battlefield, though he didn't say it aloud.

He loves playing grand strategy games.

Therefore, it is clear that firearms suppressed armies in the era of cold weapons.

The white-haired kid, who seemed to have acquired so many weapons with destructive power and wide range, completely frustrated him.

"Being distracted during battle is a very unwise choice. I don't need to teach you that, King of Conquerors."

A voice came from ahead.

Iskandar snapped back to his senses and cleaved Rimuru in two with a single sword strike.

He looked around at the land and saw that very few soldiers remained in the army.

But Nagumo and the others were also in bad shape; their magic was exhausted, and Nero's beautiful dress had a large hole in it.

Simply put, it involves tens of thousands of pigs, and it would take quite a few days to slaughter them.

Not to mention people.

Iskandar remained silent.

He never expected his army to be defeated so quickly.

Of course, he did not think his army was weak.

Rather, it's because the opponent is too strong.

One wields firearms, the other has a dragon sealed within him.

This is definitely a case of the Master being stronger than the Servant.

"I really don't understand. You guys have such power, why are you summoning Servants?"

Looking at Rimuru ahead, Iskandar asked, puzzled.

"There's no other way; for the Holy Grail to grant a wish, it must be made by a Master."

Limru shrugged.

Upon hearing this, Iskandar also realized what was happening and asked Rimuru:

"Alright, then can you tell me, if you obtained the Holy Grail, what would you wish for?"

Chapter 254

"My wish?"

When Iskandar suddenly asked him a question, Rimuru instinctively glanced at Jeanne d'Arc.

After a light laugh, he said loudly, "It was achieved long ago!"

The words fell

He swung his katana at Iskandar!

Bah!

The clash of swords produced a unique metallic clang.
