clang!
Using a space jump to avoid another Noble Phantasm, Yami appeared on Vimana.
"It's over, Gilgamesh. It seems I'll have the last laugh!"
"Well, you are indeed very strong in every way," Gilgamesh replied. "But this king is the only king in the world. Going against the king's will is a death penalty. Even if you are favored by the king, such behavior is absolutely not allowed!"
Gilgamesh stood proudly, and a golden halo appeared beside him again. A strange treasure slowly emerged from within.
"Archer, you have the honor of facing EA. Let me give you the final blow!" he declared. "Tighten your mind; I don't want the person I like to die like this! ENUMA ELISH!!"
The Sword of Rupture was lifted high by Gilgamesh, and red magic power began to wrap around it. The terrible wind pressure made the surrounding space tremble slightly.
"Is it finally coming? Let's decide the winner with this move!" Yami, whose eyebrows were twitching wildly, did not feel fear. Instead, his expression was full of excitement. The warlike blood in his veins had been completely aroused by Gilgamesh.
"Heaven and Earth Severing Star!!!"
After the sharp roar, a terrifying red light struck. Gilgamesh's full-strength release of the treasure was extremely powerful. The sky shook and cracked with densely packed gaps. Space wind blades shone in all the gaps, and the ground opened with a deep crack, revealing bubbling scarlet magma.
In the blink of an eye, the attack arrived in front of Yami. Feeling the instability of the surrounding space, his expression became very serious. Even though he hadn't tried it yet, he guessed what might happen. If he dared to use his space ability to jump now, the unstable space influenced by the Sword of Rupture would complicate things further. His spatial abilities were not developed enough to ignore this effect.
The only option left was to take the sword's blow head-on.
"Conqueror Coil · Armed · Holy Spear Thunder Slash!!"
Yami tried his best, and the black sword in his hand and the "Spear of Hephaestus' burst out with terrifying brilliance. The magic power of the sun and thunder wrapped around the sword and spear, respectively. In the next moment, the combined skills of the two weapons flickered out.
The sky changed color: half was code-like red, and the other half was golden and white interlaced. The two energies collided fiercely.
rumbling
The strongest blow, full of buffs, collided with the wind pressure from the Sword of Rupture. At this moment, the barrier arranged by Medea began to tremble crazily. A terrible impact formed, and violent air waves hit layer by layer like a tsunami, creating an apocalyptic scene in the area. The ground and vegetation were destroyed beyond recognition. Medea had to continue using magic to strengthen the surrounding barrier.
"Are they planning to destroy the world!? It's too exaggerated! If this continues, the entire Fuyuki City will be involved," Rin exclaimed. The huge storm made it impossible for her to stand. If Artoria hadn't held her up, she would have been blown away.
The terrifying fluctuation of magic power left her at a loss. This existence was beyond her understanding. Sakura and Emiya Shirou were also speechless.
"Fuyuki City will not be affected. With that witch around, the barrier won't be destroyed, but Archer is obviously about to fail. A treasure of that level is too scary!" Cù Chulainn couldn't help but exclaim.
Comparing himself to whether he could take such a blow, it was obvious he wouldn't have an answer soon. Even with his maximum throwing spear, it couldn't compare to the Sword of Rupture.
"Archer is really amazing to withstand such a terrible attack for such a short time! If our previous battle had continued, I would have lost. This result is hard to accept!" Cù Chulainn thought. "But having such a powerful opponent means I won't be alone in the future!"
Realizing Yami wasn't from their world, he felt moved. Medea had mentioned purifying the black mud in the Holy Grail to incarnate through it, allowing him to stay in this world. Initially, Cù Chulainn didn't care, but now, seeing Yami's strength, he was excited.
"It's decided. I should stay to fight against more heroes. Such a life makes my blood boil!"
"You dream later. Get ready to act, Lancer!" Artoria's sudden voice pulled Cù Chulainn from his fantasy. They both looked up at the increasingly violent energy in the sky, their expressions serious.
"My master is about to lose. We can't let him get hurt!"
"Even if you didn't tell me, I would do it. I also want to visit another world. I won't let Archer fall here."
They picked up their weapons simultaneously. The terrifying air waves continued to spread, the ground shattered, and the space shook. The barrier seemed on the verge of collapse.
At this moment, the stalemate in the attack finally decided the winner. Yami's full blow lost to the Sword of Rupture in Gilgamesh's hand. The attack under various power blessings was instantly pierced. The red wind pressure, surpassing the speed of sound, struck toward Yami's body.
"It's truly a sword that claims to 'cut the world'. I really can't resist it. But, in the end, I'm going to win," Yami thought calmly.
Under everyone's gaze, his body began to emit a golden light.
"Avalon!!"
A soft spell sounded, and the red wind pressure swept across, extending to the end of the line of sight. However, Yami's body remained unharmed. The golden light curtain protected him completely.
As the light flickered, the space distorted. All the magic power was involved, and after ripples, everything disappeared. The sky returned to blue, and the previous apocalyptic scene seemed never to have happened.
Artoria and Cù Chulainn, who were planning to rescue, stopped, looking at the sky in shock. Yami and Gilgamesh stood face to face. The 'Spear of Hephaestus' pierced Gilgamesh's heart, and the black sword pierced his abdomen. Gilgamesh's crimson eyes stared at Yami's face.
click!!!
A crisp sound echoed as Gilgamesh's earrings shattered.
The mimetic magic applied on it also completely lost its effect.
Gilgamesh transformed from a handsome and domineering young man into a tall and hot beauty with long hair in front of everyone.
This extreme change undoubtedly made everyone's eyes widen.
"Hey, are you kidding me, even the King of Heroes is a woman?!"
Although he was complaining, Cù Chulainn couldn't help but look at Artoria beside him.
The latter naturally felt the malicious gaze, and couldn't help but become serious.
"So, do you have a problem with my gender? Lancer!"
"Not at all, I just feel surprised."
Cù Chulainn, who was in trouble secretly, quickly shook his head to express his attitude. This kind of heartfelt behavior made Artoria reluctantly let him go.
However, that kind of aggrieved feeling still made the knight king unable to vent.
But soon, all the emotions in her heart were replaced by curiosity.
Artoria is eager to know why Yami owns her Avalon and can liberate it freely.
Her Master is really getting more and more mysterious!
And the other side.
Yami, who is the person involved, is not clear about what other people think.
At this time, he had already ended the battle, and he did not make unnecessary movements, but just stood there, giving Gilgamesh enough respect.
It is no exaggeration to say that the opponent is the most powerful enemy he has encountered so far.
That kind of power can be described as quite suffocating!
If he hadn't just figured out a way to restrain the other party, and also possessed a super-standard treasure like Avalon, today would definitely end in his disastrous defeat.
But no matter what, it is indeed he who has won the final victory now!
Whether it is Yami himself or Gilgamesh, they can all accept such a result.
At this moment, there was no anger in Gilgamesh's eyes, but only the arrogance of a king.
"I didn't think there was such a treasure hidden on your body, Archer."
"But you did a good job. This battle made me very happy. I'll just admit your victory. You deserve to be the man I like."
"But this kind of ending will only happen once, next time we meet, I will never let you go again!"
"Did you hear it?"
Proud words uttered from the mouth of the blonde beauty in front of him.
I don't know why, but these obviously blunt words give people a cute feeling.
After Yami was slightly stunned, he showed a faint smile.
"Ah, although you sometimes have a bad mouth, you still have a good personality. This time is my victory, but even if we meet again, I won't lose."
"Today's curtain call is enough to be worthy of your status, King of Heroes!"
"Hehe, maybe, but there is one thing I must explain clearly!"
Gilgamesh's eyes suddenly became very dangerous.
Although he felt puzzled, the other party was seriously injured and on the verge of collapse, so Yami didn't care too much.
"what?"
"This king doesn't have a bad mouth!"
After speaking, without giving Yami any extra time to react, Gilgamesh suddenly came forward.
The black sword and the 'Spear of Hephaestus' penetrated deeper into her body, just to get closer to the short distance of more than ten centimeters.
The strange touch made Yami's eyes widen.
Before he realized it carefully, Gilgamesh had already distanced himself from him.
"Listen to me, Yami!"
"In the name of the King of Vientiane, I will give you all the happiness and joy in this world. Next time we meet, I will definitely make you this king's wife!"
Gilgamesh with a smile on the corner of her mouth said these words, and then disappeared into the air in the sky with shards of light.
Yami could only watch helplessly as the shards of light drifted into the distance under the breeze.
After he came back to his senses, the feeling of weightlessness caused by the disappearance of Vimana made him subconsciously use his space ability and landed on the ground smoothly.
"Really, Gilgamesh, you are really..."
"Before you die, you still want to make trouble for me…"
Yami sighed helplessly, but it wasn't against what happened just now.
It's just that he doesn't like the idea of becoming a wife.
"There is no chance now. Since it's like this, I can only wait until the next time we meet, and let you pay back what you did today!"
But the next time we meet, I don't know when it will be.
Will Gilgamesh remember what happened today?
Thinking silently in his heart, Yami's sight became deeper, and he couldn't help looking into the distance.
Goddess Hephaestus is walking in his direction.
There was a faint smile on everyone's face, ready to share the hard-won victory with him.
Let's talk about things later!
"Hey, Archer, congratulations on your victory!"
Cù Chulainn came to him first, grabbed Yami's shoulders skillfully, and with a teasing look on his face, he moved to his side with malicious intentions.
"Hey, what's the taste of the King of Heroes? It must be wonderful!"
"Can you say something useful? Your expression is so lewd!"
Yami patted Cu Chulin's shoulder away angrily, and looked helplessly at the frivolous guy in front of him, not wanting to talk too much about it at all.
If it triggers the Shura field, it will not be so wonderful.
"Okay, since you don't want to bring up this topic, forget it!"
"But you are so powerful, it makes my hands itch, wait until the Holy Grail War is over, and fight me again!"
After finishing his digression, Cù Chulainn sent out an invitation to fight with great interest.
Yami, unable to refuse, could only nod his head.
"By the way, I sensed that you and Artoria ran to the front to fight, what happened?"
"What else can we do? Hercules is very powerful, but the master of the opponent seems to be afraid of you and Gilgamesh's strength, so she retreated early.
"Is that so? That's all right."
Since Ilya didn't have the idea of fighting, then don't worry about her.
After killing Gilgamesh, there is no suspense in this Holy Grail War.
Even though Hercules is very powerful, Yami now has full confidence in defeating that guy.
After all, compared to Gilgamesh, he is really weak.
"Let's go, we should go back."
Yami signaled to everyone present that he planned to return to the Tohsaka family.
This battle can be said to be forced to go on, and now that it is over, there is naturally no need to continue.
It's time to accept the spoils that are theirs!
"Archer, will you accompany me to church one more time?"
Rin suddenly asked a question.
"Actually, it would be nice to let Cù Chulainn accompany you. If you can wait until Bazzett wakes up before going there, it will undoubtedly be more perfect."
"Okay, then just wait for now."
After a little thought, Rin accepted Yami's suggestion.
However, there is no plan to leave now.
After knowing that the Einzbern family has such a terrifying heroic spirit, she is not at ease letting her sister go to such a dangerous place alone.
So Yami can only be forced to accompany her.
