Chapter 239: The Taste-of-Wine Kiss.
[At the critical moment when Pegasus and the great serpent were locked in a fierce battle, Caren at the side finally joined the battlefield.]
Caren, dressed in pure white attire, lightly curled her body, her magical energy transforming into a praying shell that enveloped her.
The name of the Noble Phantasm is: The Greatest Hits - "Calling Agape": Universally Unconditional and Infinite Love!
Amid the blazing white light as the two Noble Phantasms collided, the heart-shaped praying shell suddenly shattered. A figure overflowing with light, spreading four wings of radiance, stepped forth as if reborn from a cocoon.
That was the pure white god, gentle and sowing compassion — Angel Caren, God of Love Amour.
As the four pure white feathered wings spread wide, the golden light of love and desire spread in all directions as well, carrying a deadly wave of magical energy that surged straight toward Ibuki-Douji.
[Bellerophon of Rider Medusa, Universally Unconditional and Infinite Love of Ruler Amour,]
[the two Noble Phantasms intertwined, converging into a colossal, unstoppable torrent of magical energy, directly facing Ibuki-Douji head-on.]
[You see ripples born from the collision of the two streams of magical energy, brilliant like clouds far away at the edge of the horizon, dazzling to the point of bringing tears to one's eyes. You hear the agonized hiss of the Yamata-no-Orochi incarnation, hear the resounding neigh of Pegasus. Waves of magical light spread again and again, mingling with the thunderous sound that shakes heaven and earth.]
[Ibuki-Douji swings down the Divine Sword in her hand, intending to use her Noble Phantasm at its highest output to sever the combined strike of the two of them.]
[You almost pour all of your magical energy into Medusa riding Pegasus, helping her to gain the upper hand in this violent clash of Noble Phantasms.]
[...]
[The Yamata-no-Orochi incarnation is gradually being pushed back, and is even on the verge of being unable to hold out any longer!]
[God Ibuki-Douji has been suppressed!]
"Hahaha, how interesting!"
Seeing this, Ibuki-Douji laughs loudly, completely immersed in this final battle of slaughter that carries the feeling of fighting to the death.
Her crimson vertical pupils narrow slightly as she speaks in a cold, godlike tone:
"Can you keep going? This onee-san still has plenty left."
Within the blinding waves of light that make it impossible to open one's eyes, Eikou struggles to observe the situation.
Even if only for a brief moment, Ibuki-Douji was indeed suppressed by the Noble Phantasms of the two of them. Even the Yamata-no-Orochi incarnation could not simultaneously shake Medusa's Pegasus and the holy light radiated by Caren.
But if one were to say that this already counted as victory, then it would be far too early. All of them exhausting their full strength could only achieve this much — merely seizing a slight advantage in a single Noble Phantasm clash. Meanwhile, Ibuki-Douji was clearly still holding something back.
"They say that a Rogue Servant without magical energy from a Master will naturally dissipate, but hers… it's truly bottomless..."
Using Noble Phantasm twice in succession was one thing, but every time she released a Noble Phantasm, Eikou's side was forced to give everything they had just to barely maintain a balance.
What was most terrifying was that Ibuki-Douji would very likely use Noble Phantasm for a third time!
By then, they would surely have no strength left to resist at all!
"…Damn it."
Eikou bites his lip hard, a complicated expression appearing on his face.
The waves of magical light gradually dissipate, and the Noble Phantasm collision on both sides has reached its final limit.
This confrontation, which began with overwhelming momentum, opening with Noble Phantasms filled with threat and crushing pressure, ultimately ends in the exhaustion of magical energy on both sides, forced to subside. All that remains are the dust stirred up and a devastated arena, awaiting the next clash.
As for Ibuki-Douji, her Spirit Origin has already begun to break through, continuing to increase her own magical energy output.
The next Noble Phantasm attack is about to follow immediately after!
However, at this very moment, Eikou's figure suddenly bursts out from within the smoke, charging straight toward Ibuki-Douji.
"Oh?"
Ibuki-Douji curiously opens her beautiful eyes slightly, looking at the young man charging straight toward her.
Immediately after that, Medusa riding Pegasus also shoots out of the smoke. In the blink of an eye, she reaches out and tightly wraps her arms around Eikou, then like an arrow released from the bowstring, suddenly strikes straight toward Ibuki-Douji, launching a reckless, all-or-nothing charge.
The astonishing speed of Pegasus, combined with Medusa's Riding at the highest (rank) level, causes them to rush forward like a meteor tearing through the air.
Even a god like her cannot react in time!
Not to mention that she has just gone through such an intense, high-intensity battle, consecutively using Noble Phantasm twice in a short period of time. Even if her spirit is exhilarated, her Spirit Origin cannot avoid exhaustion.
According to theory, this is precisely the weakest moment of Ibuki-Douji.
Eikou absolutely must seize this precious opportunity.
"Medusa, now is the time!"
He shouts loudly.
"Understood!"
In that brief instant, Medusa suddenly opens her deep purple eyes wide.
Within those eyes, dangerous and deadly magical energy flows, like a venomous snake that has locked onto its prey, staring intently at Ibuki-Douji.
Cybele Mystic Eyes, activate!
At this very moment, Ibuki-Douji finally senses the threat. However, whether she closes her eyes or retreats, it is already too late.
[Medusa has activated Mystic Eyes at the highest level!]
[Targets with low magical energy will be petrified unconditionally, while targets with high magical energy will also be petrified if they are careless.]
[For you, whether you can win the Noble Phantasm clash was never important. That was merely a way to weaken Ibuki-Douji.]
[Sealing Ibuki-Douji's actions for a short period of time — that is the true objective you want to achieve.]
"!"
Ibuki-Douji's eyes widen.
Although her body is not petrified, she is still forcibly restrained, stiffly frozen in place like a statue.
"It worked, Master!"
Medusa urgently says, immediately exerting strength with her wrist as she throws Eikou straight toward Ibuki-Douji's front.
"Even my Mystic Eyes can only seal her for five seconds, please make full use of the time!"
Only a mere five seconds of sealing.
But for Eikou, that is already more than enough.
Being thrown forward, Eikou does not hesitate at all and tightly embraces Ibuki-Douji's voluptuous body, pressing himself completely against her.
Second by second passes, and Ibuki-Douji will soon recover her ability to move.
Eikou does not dare to delay, forcefully wrapping his arms around Ibuki-Douji's neck.
He no longer wants to bother with the situation or etiquette. As long as he wins, as long as he survives, that is what matters most!
Looking at that beautiful face full of majesty, radiating both divinity and the aura of the oni race, he almost gently moves his face closer.
Immediately after, without the slightest hesitation, he gives the other party a deep kiss.
"..."
Eikou slightly parts her teeth, bit by bit feeding into her mouth the liquid he had hidden there.
That is… Water of Life mixed with Golden Wine!
If this amount of Golden Wine were used merely as ammunition for a bazooka, it would be almost useless. External contact is far too inefficient, requiring a great deal of alcohol to make Ibuki-Douji feel drunk.
But what if he makes her drink it directly, letting her body absorb the alcohol from the inside?
Eikou firmly believes that this time, he can definitely weaken Ibuki-Douji.
Make her reveal an opening, make her become intoxicated!
[You have activated a series of Skills, allowing you to gain the advantage in subsequent checks.]
[The enemy is God Ibuki-Douji. With the attribute that counters Human, you originally have no advantage, and are further countered by My Love Is Eternal.]
