Type-Moon, joins the Lion King at the beginning

Chapter 331: The Moment of Birth (Part )
Clatter. Clatter.

Along with someone's groan, rubble slowly fell from the body that had climbed up, making a crisp sound.

“Ah, it hurts, it hurts—”

Raising his still numb arm, the dizzy Mordred managed to get up from the ground, and soon regained consciousness under the stimulation of magic.

"That guy was too harsh!"

Mordred complained in her heart that Li Ye's sudden punch was too powerful. She seemed to see the muscular gorilla Gawain.

Gawain in the daytime was blessed by the number of saints, which gave him incredible strength and defense, able to withstand attacks from the army or even the city, and was also called the [Iron Wall].

At Li Ye's punch, Mordred seemed to begin to recall his past life, and began to appreciate his past as if he was watching a flower in a cursory manner.

In addition to the irresistible force, the aurora wrapped around the fist was the main reason why Mordred almost fainted.

His own B-level anti-magic had no effect at all, so it was just pure magic, and the impact of magic alone was enough to make Mordred unable to resist.

Mordred, with his teeth bared, complained to Li Ye while moving his stiff body, letting the magic power stimulate his body to begin to warm up and resume normal movements.

At this time, Lion Jie Jieli also rushed to Mordred's side, looked Mordred up and down, and after confirming that he was fine, he said: "You finally woke up, and now the battle seems to be over."

"Clam?"

Mordred, who was thought to have been offline for not long, was about to seek revenge on Li Ye. However, after hearing the words of Lion Jie Jieli, he noticed the changes on the battlefield.

Liye and Achilles have left, replaced by Black Rider and an unknown android boy.

Not only that, the Hanging Garden hanging high above the Castle of Eugene Domirenia also captured the Greater Holy Grail under Mordred's watchful eyes.

Ignoring the green wind that was trying to approach the sky garden, Mordred scratched his head and said in disbelief, "No way?"

What had she missed?
Mordred, who felt overwhelmed just thinking about it, sighed and said, "What should I do~~ Master?"

Mordred, who refused to think, decided to throw the question to the seemingly intelligent Master, Lion Jiejieli.

The lion Jie Jie, who was not much better than Mordred and had just watched the whole scene, stopped his hand that was about to light a cigarette when he heard this. After a slight hesitation, he said, "Your colleague seems to be doing something incredible."

After Mordred was knocked unconscious by Li Ye, Lion Jie Jie Li could be said to have watched the entire battle, not only the death of Frankenstein, but also the subsequent arrival of Joan of Arc, and the successive departures of Li Ye and Achilles.

All these unexpected events occurred while Mordred was in a coma. As a magician, Shishi Jiejieli could only watch from the sidelines and could only inform Mordred of these information when he woke up.

at the same time.

The young boy Sieg, who finally regained consciousness, suddenly broke free from Astolfo's arms and shouted in surprise: "Be careful!"

"It's all right now, it's all right now!"

Seeing Sieg's panicked expression, Astolfo quickly comforted him, "There's no fighting now, they're all gone!"

After Astolfo's explanation, Sieg quickly understood the current situation, but he also showed a lost expression. Fortunately, he quickly cheered up.

But just after Sieg and Astolfo stood up, an unexpected figure appeared in front of Astolfo, even causing Mordred and Lion Jie Li who were not far away to raise their eyebrows.

"I won't let you do that, Rider."

Astolfo shuddered the moment the slightly crazy female voice sounded. After seeing the expression of the visitor, he smiled awkwardly: "Ah, it's better to get angry."

The woman who appeared before Astolfo was named Serenike Eskel Yugdomirenia, the Master of the Black Rider Astolfo.

A smart, beautiful, and cruel female magician who makes a living by cursing and killing others. She has an obsession with the Rider Astolfo she summoned.

And after Astolfo went against her wishes several times for Sieg, Serenikae couldn't help it.

She couldn't stand Astolfo going against her will again and again for this artificial man -

So Serenikai came up with a great idea.

For this idea, Serenike even ignored the tragedy that happened in the Yogdomirenia Castle and prioritized fulfilling her own selfish desires.

"Hey, Rider, tell me your real name."

Serenike looked increasingly insane, her mouth wide open, her eyes widening, and her sinister tone made Astolfo and Sieg shudder.

But facing his Master's questioning, Astolfo answered honestly: "Astolfo, what happened to Charlemagne's Twelve Warriors?"

"No, it's not!"

Serenike's crazy expression was filled with sarcasm, and she said, "You are a Servant, just a degraded copy of the Heroic Spirit Astolfo!"

"Yeah, you can say that."

Astolfo tilted his head and thought about it, and seemed to agree with Serenika's answer, but Sieg behind him showed a different expression.

Astolfo's answer made Serenike even more crazy. She even started scratching her scalp frantically, not noticing that her face was covered in blood.

"So!! I never thought you were Astolfo, you were just a servant, just a familiar, just a toy!"

Serenika stared at Astolfo with a crazy look on her face, and recalled in her mind every time she had enjoyed the body of this beautiful boy in the past few days - it was obviously just a toy!

"It's so obvious, so obvious, so obvious! Yet you act like a fool, recklessly! You always embarrass me just because of a fly that flies by!"

Seeing the appearance of his Master, Astolfo finally realized that something was wrong and said awkwardly: "Sieg, run away from here--"

"Pests must be killed, but—"

Serenike's expression began to calm down, but it looked particularly horrifying against the backdrop of blood, and she said, "Crushing a fly will dirty my hands, I don't want that.

But isn’t that why familiars exist for times like these? "

Hearing this, Astolfo immediately showed a panic, but he no longer had the right to refuse -

"The Fourth Black gives the order with the Command Seal to kill that android, immediately!"

hum.

When the scarlet light bloomed from the back of his hand, the force of compulsion reached Astolfo. Even with the A-level anti-magic power that the [Luna Break Manual] often provided, Astolfo could not ignore the power of the Command Seal.

It's futile to resist with all your strength!
but--

puff.

The sword blade, without any emotion, swept across the neck, and the splashing blood stained Serenike's glasses.

Mordred turned and walked away without looking at Serenikae, as if he had killed a weed on the roadside.

Even Mordred could not bear to see Astolfo, a knight, defiled. Moreover, Mordred was in no mood to watch such a boring show.

A sudden scene broke Astolfo and Sieg's thoughts. Astolfo's master died so easily.

But the death of the Master did not seem to have much impact on Astolfo. Astolfo, who had B-level independent action capabilities, could act alone for two full days even if the Master died and the magic power supply was cut off.

At the same time, Mordred, who was still in the cool stage, noticed a figure falling from the aerial garden in the distance.

Mordred was very familiar with that figure.

Joan of Arc acts as the judge of this Holy Grail War.

Although I was not able to see that scene, judging from the information provided by Lion Jiejieli, Joan of Arc must have entered the garden through the passage created when the Holy Grail was captured.

As for why it was knocked down, Mordred had no idea.

And not long after the Saint fell, the sky garden that had begun to move quite a bit—

The Aurora bloomed.

It was a light that Mordred was extremely familiar with. She had fallen into a brief coma because of this light, and the reason has not been found until now.

It can only be hidden as a dark history.

But Mordred never expected to see a similar light again at this time, and on such a terrifying scale.

A distance of a thousand meters is already far, not to mention things like speed difference.

But in Mordred's opinion, the seemingly slender [Aurora] might be larger than he expected, extending towards the endless sky and earth, splitting the [world].

Just the true appearance that Mordred was able to glimpse made her feel confused and frightened.

Although she did not see the impact of the [Aurora] piercing the earth, Mordred's intuition told her that the [World] was approaching.

As a replica of King Arthur, Mordred of the Round Table was very aware of the occurrence of such events, and something similar to the Tower of the End appeared here.

"Hey, Master, this thing is not looking good. You'd better tell your bosses."

Mordred turned his head and looked at the lion Jie Jieli and said, "Maybe it's something big!"

Seeing Mordred say this, Lion Jiejieli waved the phone in his hand.

Almost immediately after the aurora rose, Lion Jie Li received a call from the Clock Tower.

When Lion Jiejieli pressed the button, El-Melloi II's shocked voice rang out immediately: "What's going on over there?
Why did the Clock Tower observe the opening of the Root?"

Even though the soul has not been fully materialized, the act of fulfilling Li Ye's wish is undoubtedly magic, and only magic can fulfill Li Ye's request.

Then, the opening of the root is a matter of course. Whether it is the [Root Vortex (Aksha Record)] or the opening of Liye's own soul, in the eyes of the Clock Tower, it is a matter beyond the scope of the Holy Grail War.

Especially after the rise of the Aurora, the world was plundered. Although the extent of land loss was not large, it was also very alarming.

Moreover, no one can be sure that the rate of flow will remain constant.

"I don't know. Judging from the situation, it seems that Kotomine Shiro and the others have obtained the Holy Grail?"

The Lion Jie Jie Li, who knew nothing about anything, repeated the information he knew, which made El-Melloi II fall into silence.

Clock Tower

After hearing the somewhat outrageous information from Lion Jiejieli, El-Melloi II pinched his brows. His already tired look made him, a man who was only thirty years old, look even more decadent.

After all, the development of things is indeed a bit outrageous, and the revelation of the root cause is something those old guys in the Clock Tower will definitely not ignore.

Thinking of this, El-Melloi II felt more and more troubled.

After not receiving a response for a long time, Shizi Jiejieli finally only got a result of "you will be notified later". This made Shizi Jiejieli raise his eyebrows slightly, but he didn't say anything.

Not only Mordred and his servants, but Sieg and Astolfo who were not far away also saw the brilliant aurora that split the sky. It was a scene that could be seen throughout Romania.

What sustains the aurora is not something else but this [world].

The land taken away by the Aurora was transformed into the driving force of the Aurora, making the Aurora's survival successful.

Sieg was extremely familiar with the existence of that light.

That's exactly what made Sieg stunned.

What is that?
As Sieg was thinking, a declaration that seemed to resound throughout the universe, but seemed to explode in his heart and ears, suddenly sounded: "Listen! All the heroic spirits gathered in this area who are invincible! Even if you are enemies who are incompatible with each other, or people from different generations who have never had any intersection, now let's leave your backs to each other!
My real name is [Joan of Arc]! As the judge of this Holy Grail War, please join forces to defeat the one who possesses the Holy Grail! Bring the Holy Grail War back to the starting point! "

The declaration was made with absolute authority, trying to save everything before the danger really came into being. The saint's declaration echoed in the ears of every servant and master.

Leaving aside Mordred, Lion Jiejie, Sieg and the others, the black servants far away in Yugdomirenia had different reactions to Jeanne's declaration.

After Chiron returned alone, several masters who were still in the Yogdomirenia Castle also learned the information about the deaths of Danic and Vlad III.

This was undoubtedly a huge blow to them. Not only did Danic, the backbone, die, but Vlad III, the top servant of the black side, was also killed.

At this point, the only Black Servant left were Chiron, Avisbronn, and Astolfo who had not yet returned.

There are only three servants left, but Red Hair still has powerful Heroic Spirits such as Karna, Achilles, Atalanta, and Mordred. In other words, the only servant killed in the Red Team so far is Spartacus.

With such a huge gap, how can they have the confidence to fight again?
In the eyes of other magicians, the only magicians who can be regarded as masters are Fiore Fulvig, Serenika Eskel and Roger Forlain.

Even Collis Fulvig, who was still worthy of being called a decent candidate, lost his qualification due to Frankenstein's death, and the only ones left were people like this.

Fiore Fulvige's legs were crippled, and she couldn't act as a magician at all. Roger Forlain was too immature, and had no advantages other than the qualifications of a Master. The madman Serenika Eskel didn't care about the survival of Eugedomrenia.

It's not just the Master's problem. The androids released by Sieg are also a big problem. It's not right to leave them alone, and it's not right not to leave them alone.

Various situations occurred tonight, catching the magicians of Yogdomilenia off guard.

An atmosphere of despair began to spread in the castle of Euglena.

This situation changed with Jeanne's declaration and someone's arrival.

"Good evening, Caster of the Black side."

Kotomine Shiro, who was wearing a priest's uniform, looked at the magician in front of him with a smile and said, "It seems that you have also heard the Ruler's announcement?"

"Yes, although the development of the situation has exceeded my expectations, it is still within the acceptable range."

Avisbronn looked at Kotomine Shiro who broke into the workshop, and the three servants beside him - Karna, Achilles, and Atalanta.

Half of the red team's heroes followed him, and the oppressive aura alone was enough to scare people away.

But this was of little use to Avisbronn, who was only concerned with whether his plan could be realized.

therefore--

"What do you want, Master of the Red Side?"

Avisbron said calmly, “If you were the winner, I might cooperate with you, but you would just be the loser who was knocked down into the garden.

Are you planning to seek cooperation from me?"

As a Caster, Avisbronn naturally has a familiar that observes the outside world. He naturally knows that Kotomine Shiro left the Sky Garden under the coercion of Li Ye.

In Avisbronn's opinion, even if Kotomine Shiro had three powerful Heroic Spirits, it would be of no use facing the one who occupied the garden.

If he had not been a step slower, Avisbronn would have definitely gone to the one in the garden.

Hearing this, Kotomine Shiro remained calm, not displeased by Avisbron's words. Instead, he said patiently, "That's right, so we need to reach a cooperation. I don't need the puppets you made, I need your treasures—"

The puppets made by Avisbronn are indeed of high quality, and can exert great power against Servants, but this is not enough against the existence that occupies the garden.

Therefore, Kotomine Shiro needs a more powerful force.

Avisbronn's growth-oriented Noble Phantasm meets this requirement, which is why Kotomine Shiro rushed here as soon as possible.

"My Noble Phantasm is still missing the most crucial magical core—"

Avisbronn did not reject Kotomine Shiro, or rather, in his opinion, it was the same to cooperate with anyone as long as he could complete his own Noble Phantasm.

"I can't help you with this, but what I want is for you to become my Servant and continue to provide magic power using those homunculus."

Kotomine Shiro finally told his purpose, which made Avisbronn narrow his eyes slightly and said, "It seems that someone will answer your question."

Tread.

Before Avisbron could finish his words, the sound of footsteps coming from not far away made Kotomine Shiro turn his head.

Karna and Atalanta, who had already noticed the arrival, were not surprised. Achilles even raised his hand and greeted: "Hey, teacher!"

The visitors were Chiron, the great Greek sage, and several masters including Fiore Fulvige.

Chiron, who possessed clairvoyance, naturally noticed that Kotomine Shiro and others had entered the castle and met Avisbronn.

But due to Joan of Arc's declaration and the changes in the Hanging Gardens, Chiron also knew that now was not the time to fight.

Then, Fiore Fulvigee, who learned of the invasion of the Red Master, forced Chiron to take her to meet Shiro Kotomine and others.

Chiron, who was pushing the wheelchair forward, finally stopped not far away. His calm eyes swept over Karna and the others, paused on Achilles, and finally stopped on Kotomine Shiro.

This was also the first time he met Kotomine Shiro. Not only was it the first time they met, but judging from Li Ye's conversation with Jeanne in the Hanging Garden, Kotomine Shiro had great ambitions.

But no matter how big the wish is, it is nothing but a fantasy at this moment.

As the aurora rose, Chiron knew it was too late.

The Greater Holy Grail has been used—

While Chiron was observing Kotomine Shiro and the others, Fiore Fulvige, who was sitting in a wheelchair, smiled and said, "Nice to meet you. I'm Fiore Fulvige Eugdomrenia. What's your name?"

"My name is Kotomine Shiro, nice to meet you, the master of the black side."

Kotomine Shiro understood the situation and said with a smile: "Well, I won't say much about the situation. The purpose of this time is to seek cooperation. As you can see, the Holy Grail has been occupied, and even such a wish has been made.

This is not something any Master or Servant wants to see, so it must be changed."

"Is it the cooperation that Miss Ruler said?"

Fiore Fulvigi folded her hands on her lap and said, "Or do you want me to hand over the sovereignty to your cooperation?"

Facing Fiore Fulvig's questioning, Kotomine Shiro remained calm and said with a smile, "It seems that it is not necessary now. We just need normal cooperation. Of course, I also hope to get the supply of magic resources from you.

After all, the number of servants I consume is extremely high."

"Supply of magic power—"

Upon hearing this, Fiore Fulvigge immediately thought of the liberated androids. If they were put back into the nutrient chamber—

Before Fiore Fulvigi could give an answer, the sound of footsteps ended the conversation.

Joan of Arc, who was not far away, stood on a high point, overlooking the black and red camp below, and her eyes finally stopped on the white-haired young man.

"You are Kotomine Shiro—"

Kotomine Shiro waved to Jeanne with a calm expression and said, "Nice to meet you. I'm Kotomine Shiro."

Looking at the calm young man, Jeanne immediately recalled what Li Ye had said about the Red Master's wish...

Now is not the time to think about that!
Although she finally met Kotomine Shiro, Jeanne decisively gave up asking the young man anything, as there were more important things to do now.

After sorting out her thoughts, Jeanne immediately said, "I am suspending this Holy Grail War with my authority as the Judge. Please join forces to defeat that enemy before continuing this war."

No matter what, we cannot allow the aurora to spread.

This was the only thing Joan of Arc could be sure of.
