My mother's love song

"That is to say, there is no way I can lose to a small fry like you now!"

"!"

Jack the Ripper saw clearly with his eyes wide open

The weapon in Rhodes' hand was the Supreme Divine Sword with the nature of [Counter-Boundary] that he had seized not long ago.

"I've seen enough of this fake hell...!"

Along with the master's whisper, the Nova of Peril let out a roar that shook the heavens and the earth.

……

……

……

The group of demons flying in the air instantly turned into powerless humans, and countless Jacks who lost the ability to fly fell to the ground.

With just one swing of the sword without releasing his real name, Rhodes cut through Jack the Ripper's fantasy that was corroding reality.

The hell of hypocrisy shattered like a strong wind blowing away a thick fog.

The sky fell, the earth cracked, and everything returned to reality.

In the polar night when the thick fog had dissipated, only the sword of Lie in Rhodes' hand was still shining brightly.

“Haha… I didn’t expect that I would lose to my ally’s Noble Phantasm…”

Berserker's faint voice echoed hollowly in the castle corridors.

"Come to think of it, Archer seemed to have said that he would definitely kill me... and his Noble Phantasm actually did it."

Rhodes looked down at Jack the Ripper, who was lying on the ground exhausted, and asked:

"Any last words, Jack?"

"Hmm... I don't think there was any special last words. Disappearing into the darkness like this is the most appropriate ending for my legend... That's right!"

He suddenly remembered something and became a little excited.

"My king, you just said that if I had fought you before you obtained the Anti-World Noble Phantasm, the outcome of this battle would have been different. Is that true?"

Rhode nodded solemnly: "Of course, you are really strong. Without the Sword of Separation, even I would be in great danger."

Hearing him say this, Jack the Ripper sighed helplessly.

"Really? Hahaha... Although my ability changes with my Thousand Faces, no matter which version of me [Jack] I am, my luck is always rank E..."

The murderer's breath disappeared without a trace, leaving only the residual sound of the vibrating air.

"Goodbye, the king I'm waiting for... By the way, you have to be careful of that..."

Servant-Berserker, exit.

"… Why don't you finish what you're saying before you die?"

Rhodes stared blankly at the corridor that suddenly became empty late at night, and then muttered to himself with an apologetic look on his face.

"I'm sorry, Jack. I lied to you. I wouldn't have lost even without EA."

At this moment, a muffled sound came from behind Rhodes.

Irisviel fell to the ground face down as if she had lost all her strength.

"Ellie!"

Rhode picked her up and found that Irisviel's face was pale and bloodless, and her face was covered with cold sweat.

"What's wrong, Airi? What did Kotomine Kirei do to you?"

Halfway through his speech, the boy stopped abruptly.

Irisviel did not suffer any external injuries. This was a manifestation of Jack the Ripper's soul returning to the Holy Grail.

Every time she took in the soul of a hero, Irisviel would lose her human functions little by little.

Although his strength is still far behind the top Hero King, Conqueror King, and Knight King, the concentration of Stitched Monster Jack's soul may be several times that of an ordinary heroic spirit.

After all, it is an anti-hero soul with countless identities, images, possibilities, and full of resentment and hatred.

The anti-hero's soul pollutes the Holy Grail, but it has nothing to do with combat effectiveness.

Although Rod had previously strengthened Irisviel's body by exchanging saliva with her, the appearance of Berserker Jack the Ripper disrupted his wishful thinking.

"Are you okay, Ellie?" Rod held her hand nervously.

"I'm sorry... for making you worry, Lord Rhodes. Please don't mind..."

"How could you not care? You can't even stand up."

"…This is a defect in the function of the android, and it is a normal physiological phenomenon."

Irisviel smiled faintly and said, Lord Rhodes really knows how to make a fuss out of nothing.

However, Rod knew very well that it was just a lie she had prepared.

Irisviel saw the boy biting his lips.

Obviously, Rhode was so powerful, as if there was nothing he couldn't do...but now he looked helpless and panicked because of me.

This feeling... is incredible.

Irisviel lowered her head shyly: "Can you... take me back to my room? Um... use a princess hug."

"No problem." Rhodes carefully picked her up and walked towards the princess's boudoir.

……

……

……

"Are you sleepy? Do you want to sleep?"

In the room dotted only by starlight and moonlight, Rhode sat by the bed and quietly stared at Irisviel, who was lying on her back with her hands crossed over her abdomen.

He remembered that in the plot of FZ, Irisviel fell into a long period of hibernation starting from the middle of the game.

Irisviel shook her head, then raised her head and gave him a sweet smile.

"Unexpectedly, I'm not particularly sleepy... Hehe, Lord Rhodes is really gentle tonight."

"I have always been so gentle to you."

"...That's true. I didn't believe it at first. But Lord Rhodes is really kind to me unconditionally."

"Well……"

Rhodes scratched his cheek a little embarrassedly.

Looking at him like that, Irisviel clutched her nightgown tightly.

You are so gentle, but I, I

During the fierce battle with the invaders just now, a scene was circling in Irisviel's mind.

That was the look of Rhodes licking his bloody palm.

It is really too beautiful.

It's really too tempting.

Irisviel could not get rid of this image no matter what.

The hot body couldn't help but tremble slightly.

She swallowed against her dry throat.

"Goooo..."

"What's wrong, Ellie? Your breathing is so heavy. Is your body really burdened with too much?"

Rhodes bent down to look at her face, but was stunned.

Her face was flushed, her eyes were moist...Irisviel would never show such an expression normally.

"……Well."

Although he knew that he was taking advantage of someone's misfortune, the virtue [purity] in Rhodes' heart still lost to the sin [lust].

He started to have evil thoughts.

"Well, well... Ellie, I'll get you some water and a towel...

Take off your robe and I'll wipe your sweat off."

Having said that, Rhode stood up from the bed, but Irisviel grabbed his wrist tightly.

"……don't want."

"Ah, okay."

Rhodes lowered his head in frustration. Although he was in poor physical condition, was it still not that easy to deceive her?

"……do not leave Me."

"Ah? Oh... OK, I'll stay here with you tonight."

Rhodes thought to himself that he should wait until around 5 o'clock in the morning before going back to his room, otherwise Altria and Morgan would definitely be angry if they woke up and found that he was not there.

"...Don't think about other women!!"

Irisviel suddenly exerted a terrifying force that even surprised Rhodes, and pulled him into her arms.

"...!?"

Rhode was caught off guard and fell on top of her, looking at Irisviel at a loss.

"Well?"

Irisviel held the boy's face with both hands, then tilted his neck up and kissed him without any warning.

It was exactly the same scene as when the two of them first met.

Only this time, the roles were reversed.

"..."

While his mind was filled with happiness, Rod also felt confused.

Can this situation be considered a kiss now?

In his opinion, all Irisviel was doing was absorbing magic power.

Irisviel, who was fully engaged, had a trance-like expression on her face, just like what is described in the Bible hymn [Psalm 42:1].

"As a young deer pants for water brooks, so my soul pants for you, O God."

………………

After a long moment, Irisviel finally left his lips contentedly, and her breathing slowed down.

She placed the boy's body on her own, hugged Rhodes' waist, and fell asleep happily like a baby.

……

……

……

After running for two hours, Kotomine Kirei returned to the deserted streets of Miyama-cho.

Berserker's defeat was completely unexpected.

The order Kotomine Kirei gave him was to flee the castle immediately after completing the rearguard action.

But that guy disobeyed orders and stayed to fight the enemy, and died in battle.

With his extraordinary clone-making ability, he could have escaped from any crisis, so why did he want to fight to the death with that monster! ?

He said something like "I'm sorry, master. There is someone I want to challenge no matter what. Please forgive my willfulness", and then died without permission.

Incomprehensible.

Too many incomprehensible things happened tonight.

The Tousaka family's luxurious villa can be seen from afar.
