Mordred's Clarent clashed repeatedly with my King Excalibur and the flame sword Retka.
"Damn, you're not half bad!!"
"You're holding up pretty well yourself, aren't you?"
"Hah? Of course! I'm not someone who'd lose to attacks like these!! Now, I'm going to crush you with my full power!!!!"
As soon as she finished speaking, Mordred's magical power instantly gathered into Clarent.
'Is that the Gift Rampage?'
In terms of in-game performance, it's a terrifying gift that allows for insane Noble Phantasm spam with activation every turn.
'I should defend right away.... Wait, let's give it a shot.'
I immediately manipulated King Excalibur's K-trigger five times.
[Jaking! Jaking! Jaking! Jaking! Jaking!]
"Come on, bring it!!!"
"Alright!!! I'm coming at you full force!!! This is the very sword that slew my father!"
Clarent's blade was enveloped in a bloody crimson light, emitting a bizarre sound as it distorted into a malevolent evil sword.
[Fatal Strike!]
In response, I gathered the red power of the flame sword Retka and the blue power of King Excalibur.
"Clarent Blood Arthur: Rebellion Against My Beautiful Father!!!!!"
[King Slash!]
Mordred's Clarent shot red lightning towards me, and I unleashed a powerful purple slash combining Retka's red slash and King Excalibur's blue slash.
They both cried out as their attacks met.
Their ultimate attacks canceled each other out, with neither giving an inch.
"You're not bad—"
[Retka Draw!]
[Whirlwind Dragon Eagle!]
[Boost! King Arthur! Retka Boost! The fierce sky's wyrm wraps itself in jade flames and burns everything to ashes!]
"Huh? What's that noise?"
From the smoke, a sound echoed, and Mordred instinctively raised her guard.
[Jaking! Jaking! Jaking! Jaking! Jaking!]
[Fatal Strike!]
[King Slash!]
He let out a sharp cry!
From within the smoke, a giant King Excalibur burst through and swung down towards Mordred, who blocked it with Clarent.
She gritted her teeth!
The collision drove her body into the ground, but she steadfastly blocked and repelled King Excalibur with Clarent's True Name Release.
She cried out!
As soon as Mordred repelled the giant sword, I flew towards her and slashed hard at her side.
Fwoosh!!!
"Guh! You...!"
Blood spurted from her slashed side, but she calmly swung Clarent to knock me away and attacked with its True Name Release.
[Skill: Shrinking activated]
[Skill: Path of the Gale activated]
[Skill: Raphael activated]
My body shrank, and I used Path of the Gale and Raphael to accelerate, dodging lightning bolts as I charged at Mordred.
"What the!? Where did he go!?"
Unable to see me, Mordred panicked and swung Clarent wildly. I used Michael to open space and moved right in front of her.
[Skill: Crushing Fist activated]
[Skill: Full-Size Transformation activated]
[Skill: Acceleration activated]
"Farewell... Mordred!!!!"
Accelerating from mid-air, I collided with her head-on.
Thud!!!!
With a piercing sound, Mordred's spiritual core was perfectly penetrated, and she vomited blood as she slumped down.
"This is my victory. With your spiritual core pierced, you can't move anymore."
Deactivating the shrinking, I pointed King Excalibur at her.
"Kuh, ugh... Do you think I'll... disappear like this?... Only King Arthur can finish me off—"
As she tried to force herself up, I spoke.
"Then it's over.... You've been defeated by King Arthur, by his power... by me, who wields that story..."
"...Huh? What are you saying..."
She glared at the sword, then realized something and began to chuckle.
"Ahahaha, I see.... I had a vague feeling during the battle.... That sword... it was imbued with King Arthur's power, wasn't it..."
[The fable dwelling in the item King of Arthur Wonder Ride Book begins to tell its story]
[The fable King Arthur Legend continues the story]
Mordred let out a sigh.
"...Really, I would have preferred to be defeated by Father himself.... Tsk. But it doesn't feel that bad..."
Her body turned into golden particles and disappeared.

After seeing the messages, I moved to the western village, where the Chaldea group was helping defeat the Purge Knights.
I took Clarent from my inventory, pointed it skyward, and shouted.
"Let it be known to all!! The rebel knight Mordred has been defeated by my hand!! The Clarent I hold is proof!!!"
Hearing this, the Purge Knights saw the sword and panicked, starting to flee.
"Waaaaah!!! We won!!!"
"We've won against the Round Table!!!"
Seeing the fleeing knights and cheering villagers, I let out a soft laugh and approached Fujimaru Ritsuka, who was waving from afar.
