My mother's love song

After seeing the man's face clearly, Rhodes hesitated and put down the staff he had raised in the air.

On the other side, the attacker did not hesitate or worry at all.

"Drink!"

The slender right foot rolled up a gust of magical wind, turning it into a gorgeous high kick that hit Rhodes' head hard.

"Gaha"

This blow, filled with endless anger and resentment, knocked Rhodes to the ground.

The invincible Caster fell down, rolled his eyes and passed out.

"It's still the same as before."

Atalanta snorted, stared at Caster lying on the ground, clapped her hands, and then carried Rhodes' body on her shoulders.

"So heavy... Is this what a man's weight is? It's different from before."

The female hunter raised her eyebrows unhappily, picked up Rhodes, and disappeared from the battlefield like the wind.

Chapter 373: The Empress is anxious, the Saint is suffering, and the love song...

After the battle, the [Sky Courtyard of Vanity] was shrouded in silence and peace.

Between the thrones, Semiramis looked around and asked, "Where are the Archers?"

There are only three riders gathered here.

Lancer Karna withdrew from the battle tonight, Rider Achilles returned to the garden without incident, but Archer Atalanta did not come back.

"Eh? Big sister, isn't he back yet?"

Achilles was also very surprised. After all, apart from the battle with the opponent's Assassin at the beginning, Atalanta spent most of the time in the rear to support Karna. Logically, she should not have been injured.

Semiramis looked towards Father Shirou.

In his hands was Archer, the true Master who had drunk the sleep-inducing tea. If anything happened, Atalanta should have informed his Master.

Amakusa paused and then said, "Archer's Master sent a message that he sent Archer to chase after Black Caster."

"How could she do such an impulsive thing?" Achilles asked in confusion, "The enemy had already eliminated the powerful enemy of the vampire, yet they actually sent my elder sister to chase after him alone. What on earth was her Master thinking?"

"What on earth is going on, Master?"

Semiramis asked telepathically.

Of course, what Amakusa said was something he made up on the spur of the moment, a lie he told in order not to shake the morale of the army.

"Archer said she wanted to talk to Caster across the street, so she won't be back tonight. She's still acting on her own as usual, causing me a headache." Amakusa explained the situation to Semiramis truthfully.

Semiramis raised an eyebrow, "She talked to Caster?"

A feeling of irritation surged in her chest, and the empress's pretty face showed an unhappy expression.

Atalanta and Aleister Crowley, what on earth could there be to talk about between the two of them?

One is a huntress from Greek mythology, the other is from a hundred years ago... Wait!

Why do I think that Caster is "just" a magician who is over 100 years old?

The other party is the owner of this hanging garden! He has existed for 2600 years!

Semiramis immediately realized that there was some unspeakable secret between Rhodes and Atalanta.

"...Tsk, what a frivolous man."

Semiramis bit her right thumb, while her slender left hand held tightly onto the armrest of the throne.

What on earth are those two going to talk about tonight?

What was their relationship in the past?

Tsk, it really makes people care!

"…ssin, Assassin."

The Master's voice brought the Empress back to reality.

"Ah, sorry."

Semiramis and Father Shirou met each other's eyes, and after a moment of panic, she regained her composure and elegance.

"What's wrong? Did you use up all your magic power in the battle just now?" Achilles laughed heartlessly, "You seem absent-minded since just now. Is it time for your queen to rest?"

“…Stop making so much noise, Rider. If you say anything more, I’ll throw you out of here.”

"Please spare me, haha."

Amakusa Shirou Tokisada looked at his Servant on the throne in silence.

He is the only one among all present who knows what is going on.

Semiramis now becomes very absent-minded whenever Black Caster is mentioned...

"What on earth happened?"

Father Shirou's mumbling seemed to reach no one's ears.

"This is an opportunity."

Semiramis stood up from the throne and stretched out her hand into the air.

"There are only three riders left in Yugdo Mirenia now. We will launch a strong assault on Mirenia City, the stronghold of the Thousand World Tree Clan, and seize the Greater Holy Grail tonight."

"...Haha, this is an unexpectedly radical idea." Shakespeare said bluntly, "We just had a big battle, and both sides must be very tired."

"That's why it's the best time to seize the Greater Holy Grail! Although Archer can't join the battle tonight, thanks to her, that annoying Black Caster probably won't show up again tonight.

Get ready, everyone. The Sky Garden is heading towards Mirenia City now!"

The empress's words were full of majesty and also made sense.

The black side suffered a setback tonight and also lost its core figure. Now its morale is extremely low. This is indeed the best time to seize the Holy Grail.

Seeing that no one had any objections, Semiramis ordered the Sky Garden to move forward at full speed.

She maintained her charming smile and looked towards the distant city of Mirenia.

That look was very similar to the eyes of a snake that has set its sights on its prey.

The empress sat back on the throne.

"……what."

I sat too hard and accidentally let some of it leak out.

……

……

……

"What's up, Ruler?"

Aika Sajo asked nervously.

Jeanne let out a long breath, and after removing her saint privileges, she said, "Hey... I've confirmed Rhodes' location. He's with the red Servant now."

Miss Saint did not directly mention the Red Archer, but used a more ambiguous term.

It must be hard to have a playboy brother, Joan of Arc thought to herself.

"Well, in that case."

Aige poked her chin with her finger and glanced at the time: "Let's go pick up Caster. I'll trouble you to lead the way, Ruler."

Jeanne showed an embarrassed expression and shook her head: "Uh...from my position, I can't do this. I can't do this.

The Red Camp did not break any rules, and although it was unclear what they were planning to do, they did not seem to have any intention of harming Rhode.

Ms. Aika, I'm going to chase the Sky Garden next. I hope to meet the Master of Red Assassin. There are some things over there that I'm very concerned about.

Please go back to church tonight. Rod has told me that if anything happens tonight, I hope you go back to church first."

Aige narrowed her eyes: "Did Caster say that?"

Joan of Arc nodded affirmatively: "Well, at least tonight, he hopes you can return to the church first."

"Well, that's very much his style... He's treating me like a child again."

Aige tilted her head.

Tonight, she and Rhodes completed a seamless cooperation, proving that they are the best combination for this Holy Grail War.

The root girl was happier than ever before.

Although I really want to meet Caster and talk to him right away, since it is Rhode's request, there is nothing I can do.

"Then I'll go back first."

Ai Ge turned around gracefully and gradually disappeared at the end of the moonlight road.

……

……

……

The Hanging Garden sailed in the sky as if it was a king over the earth, quickly passing through the forest north of Tulifas and arriving right in front of the city of Milenia.

There was a shock at the bottom of the courtyard.

The whole courtyard shook as if there was an earthquake.

It is an army of puppets and androids sent by the enemy.

Attacks of this magnitude can be ignored. Semiramis didn't even intend to pay attention to them and launched a strong attack directly.

The courtyard stopped above the Mirenia Fortress.

If the residents of Tolyface also looked up at the night sky, what would they think of this huge courtyard that even blocked the moonlight? At least they would not be able to maintain a normal mental state.

boom! ! !

With a roar like thunder, a number of large magic circles appeared around the aerial garden, and the beams of light that shot down began to chip away at the walls and barriers of the city of Mirenia bit by bit.

"Um... Assassin, although you said you want to seize the Greater Holy Grail, how exactly are you going to do it?"

Achilles asked in confusion, standing on the observation deck.

He originally thought that he would be asked to break into the castle and seize the Holy Grail, but in the end, his duty was to stay near the garden and do guard work.

Well...anything will be fine as long as I can play a second round with the teacher.

Semiramis smiled and pointed to the floor. "The reason this sky garden floats in the air is entirely based on the concept of reverse. Plants grow downwards, and water always flows from the bottom up."

"Watch it carefully, you inexperienced magicians. This is the true realm of magic."

The Assyrian Queen laughed loudly, spread her hands and released the spell.

bang

A strong wind began to blow at the bottom of the courtyard.

That is a very common scene in alien science fiction movies.

The tornado-like airflow was connected to the fortress like a pipe.

"Okay, come out to me right away, Great Holy Grail! Let me see your ugly yet beautiful posture created by divine magic!"

The soil began to collapse and was gradually absorbed.

Two-thirds of the fortress had been destroyed, and the exposed rocky terrain was gradually shattered and scattered, and the Holy Grail finally revealed its true appearance.

"That is the Greater Holy Grail... huh?"

Achilles muttered to himself with a dumb expression.

With his vision almost like an eagle's, he did see the Greater Holy Grail located below.

But that wasn't what really shocked him.

Not only the great heroes, but also the great writers were stunned.

A huge amount of colorless and transparent magical power that had been accumulating for more than sixty years and was absolutely unchanged was now swirling there.
