From Scáthach's perspective, those weak Hassan's bodies grew dragon scales, claws replaced fingers, and the flesh hidden beneath their black robes became incredibly massive, stretching their former black wizard-like clothes into tight-fitting garments.

However, this draconic transformation of their bodies quickly began to disappear, and Hassan returned to his sickly appearance.

"No, the power is hidden within his body; Strength, Endurance, and Agility are all increasing."

Under the power of Clairvoyance, Scáthach saw deeper into the Hassan's bodies.

It was constantly compressing muscles and bones, adhering to each other, emitting vibrations like a hummingbird flapping its wings.

And at this moment, Hassan's eyes, hidden beneath his skull mask, suddenly burst forth with Blazing Gold light, looking at Scáthach and meeting her Clairvoyance.

"Danger!"

An ominous premonition filled her cerebral cortex; Scáthach tensed her entire body.

Without any hesitation, Gáe Bolg Alternative was suddenly released, blocking in front of her.

At the same time, a short blade arrived, bringing unparalleled power with its supersonic speed.

Under the sonic boom generated by the clash, under the vibrations of both weapons, and amidst the impact of magical energy!

Bond hadn't had time to react, his internal organs hadn't had time to crack, and his dog ears hadn't had time to burst with blood; that short blade had already disappeared again from Scáthach's sight!

This time, its appearing location was Bond's dog head!

...

What is the concept of Incantation - Moment, which stacks speed in a base-2 system?

A Ninth Level, reaching its limit, is a 2^9 times magnification, which means 512 times divine speed!

Assuming the user is originally 1m/s, then under a Ninth Level Moment, he would reach 512m/s; one must know that the speed of sound is only 340m/s!

Hassan of the Hundred Faces can split into eighty different individuals, allowing these eighty Hassan to gain the dragon blood of the King of Sky and Wind.

What Hayasaka Ai was betting on was precisely the Incantation - Moment contained within the dragon blood!

Naturally, the Hassan, who represented assassination and were famous heroes in history, succeeded; several of them successfully obtained this ultimate speed Incantation, most suitable for assassination!

Since that's the case, why not make a move?

The morning battle concluded; when Shinomiya Kaguya realized that Gilgamesh couldn't defeat this Servant, she already understood that she needed to take action.

She deeply gazed at Scáthach.

She was Gilgamesh's vassal and needed to accompany the Hero King in clearing his grievances, but Hayasaka Ai did not have this concern.

As the saying goes, a vassal's vassal is not my vassal, and a king's king is not my king; Hayasaka Ai, Shinomiya Kaguya's vassal, is certainly not Gilgamesh's vassal!

Since that's the case, let Hayasaka Ai eliminate her.

When you fight Gilgamesh and still have a look of arrogance, when you clearly know that Hassan of the Hundred Faces, who represents assassination, is lurking nearby, yet you disdain to eliminate him!

You should know the price of underestimating the enemy in war!

As for war, after the Warring States period, there were no longer any rituals of reciprocity.

The retreat in the morning was our defeat; the resurgence of blades at noon is a killing intent towards your combination!

Having just acquired the unique Skill named Incantation - Moment, although Hassan had not reached the ultimate Nine-Tier Moment, he had already reached the level of a Seven-Tier Moment in his first use, which is 128 times speed!

128 times speed?

The number multiplied by this 128 is Hassan of the Hundred Faces's own Agility!

Servant - Hassan of the Hundred Faces

Strength: C, Endurance: D, Agility: A, Magical Energy: C, Luck: E, Noble Phantasm: B

Except for Agility A, his other attributes were so weak; in the original plot, even a Master could spar with a few Hassan.

This Agility represented by A was quite diluted; in performance, it was far inferior to Medusa's Agility A.

But now, it is Hassan with 128 times speed!

A single strike at 128 times speed, can you, Scáthach, block it a second time?

...

The blade, which had created a sonic boom, had not yet approached Bond's dog head; merely the magical energy and airflow emanating from the blade were already about to tear everything apart.

Hair disappeared, skin cracked, and the scent of blood didn't even have time to spread!

Due to the attribute enhancement, Bond's body was already like copper head and iron bones, but under this strike, he could only ensure that he would not be killed by the aftermath.

"Wisdom of the Magic Mirror, activate!"

Wisdom of the Magic Mirror - A+: Surpassing humanity, god-slaying, gaining supreme wisdom precisely because of being in another world.

Excluding hero-specific Skills, he can use almost all Skills with a proficiency of B to A rank.

Simultaneously unsealed with the Wisdom of the Magic Mirror was the complete state of Clairvoyance, that power to foresee the battle, foresee the future, and foresee death!

"Time, accelerate for me!"

Among the dragons, the King of Sky and Wind walked the world under Odin's name, and Odin in Norse mythology once hung himself on the World Tree for nine days and nine nights, contemplating the mysteries of the universe.

When he descended from the tree, he comprehended the secret of Runes.

Scáthach, she is a Servant possessing the power of Primordial Runes, and after unsealing the Wisdom of the Magic Mirror, the time around her began to accelerate synchronously!

Although she couldn't reach the fated 128 times speed of the Seven-Tier Moment within the dragon blood, in Scáthach's Clairvoyance, this was already enough!

Gáe Bolg Alternative broke through the constraints of time and space, predicted the landing point of Hassan's blade, and intercepted Hassan's attack in advance!

The brutal shockwave sent Bond flying, smashing him into the distant wall of the hamburger shop.

At this moment, he finally felt the pain on his body; he didn't have time to let out a painful roar, nor did he have time to ponder where the attack came from; the battle under divine speed was still ongoing!

"What a joke?!"

Hassan's expression, hidden beneath his skull mask, was somewhat shocked.

His ignited golden eyes stared intensely at Scáthach, who had once again intercepted his blade.

Under 128 times divine speed, the feeling of surpassing everything almost brought this Hassan's thoughts to a halt, yet Scáthach blocked it?

"What about the next strike?"

A thought, also under divine speed, flashed through his mind; Hassan had already appeared behind Scáthach's neck, and the boundless sharpness overflowing from his blade was about to cleave that fair, white neck!

But Scáthach had already rotated her spear tip, and her spear technique, transcending the divine realm, once again arrived at the blade's landing point with a later start but earlier arrival; the next moment, Hassan's attack arrived as expected.

"..."

Sweat broke out on his body; this Hassan, possessing a Seven-Tier Moment, immediately retreated, rushing towards Bond again without any hesitation!

In the world of divine speed, mortals are like insects, long dead under the airflow and sound waves; their brains haven't even reacted to their own deaths, still continuing the actions from before the battle, so tragic!

"I am Hassan; I no longer remember my name; completing the mission is my only pursuit.

Since I've joined the war, I will give my life!"

Swinging his blade forward, Hassan's mind, under divine speed, heard Scáthach's voice.

She said, "Why do you awaken… the power I painstakingly suppressed?"
