Thank you for the invitation. He's in heaven now, he's become God.

Its movements can destroy mountains and shatter peaks, and it can manipulate celestial phenomena.

Even the army of the conqueror king could not withstand such overwhelming divine might.

When the last wisp of lightning dissipated, the Conqueror's mental world had vanished into thin air.

Sheath the blade.

Although Iskandar's body was well preserved, it was only because he deliberately held back.

The gentle gods granted this conqueror a final moment to bid farewell to his master.

"The Three Stages of Ignorance!"

Following the Conqueror King, the second eliminated contestant has appeared: the Assassin summoned by Kirei Kotomine.

In fact, the church in Eastwood City was naturally the most excited about the revelation of Yahweh's identity.

However, based on Yahweh's previous conversation with Solomon, they learned that "the Lord" was watching a drama called the Holy Grail War.

As believers in the Lord, we should naturally not disturb His enjoyment.

Assassin remains a Heroic Spirit of the Black faction, but his purpose has changed from helping Tokiomi win the Holy Grail War to pleasing the gods.

Of course, these are all Kotomine Risei's thoughts.

As for Assassin's Master, only he himself knows what his dutiful eldest son is thinking.

The Heroic Spirit that Kirei Komine summoned this time was not Hassan the Hundred Faces from the original Fourth Shinobi World War, but Hassan the Cursed Arm.

In fact, Hassan the Cursed Arm is not weak, and his Noble Phantasm "Delusional Heartbeat" is a very dangerous killing move.

Chapter 181: Demonstrating the Laws of Light

However, Okita Souji's fighting style was quite unethical.

A single strike is a deadly move, deciding victory or defeat in a single blow.

If he wins this move, then Hassan the Cursed Arm will also win.

But alas, he was defeated, and so he died.

In a sense, it's not shameful that Hassan of Cursed Arm was defeated by the secret sword technique "Three-Stage Strike of Ignorance".

After the Cursed Arm, the next to fall was Artoria.

They were essentially the same being, and given that he was completely outmatched in both swordsmanship and Noble Phantasm, it wouldn't be surprising if he lost to his more mature and powerful self.

However, this is not the case.

That's right, the loser gets the blue knight king, not the pure white king who looks like a lily.

In fact, at the beginning, Artoria did have an absolute advantage.

After all, the seasoned knight king and the young girl who has just embarked on the path to becoming a king are not on the same level at all, whether in terms of swordsmanship or combat experience.

Furthermore, because both of them are Heroic Spirits, the difference in strength between them is even greater than originally expected.

After all, the difference between Heroic Spirits and Servants is not just a simple difference in power.

First, it's important to understand one thing.

Servants are merely a side aspect of Heroic Spirits, which is why there are class divisions.

Heroic Spirits themselves are only classified into "Heaven," "Earth," and "Human" attributes, as well as the "Star" and "Beast" attributes, which are somewhat ambiguous in terms of whether they qualify as Heroic Spirits. They do not have the concept of class or rank.

This Holy Grail War has been completely taken over by the chat group due to the event missions.

The chat group used a special method to directly summon the Heroic Spirit's true form. Although classes were assigned, the Heroic Spirit's power was not restricted. Instead, the Heroic Spirit's fighting style was made more inclined towards the class it possessed.

As for the underlying principles...

If we really delve into it, Lily and Artoria, two beings who are essentially the same, were able to simultaneously descend into this Holy Grail War as Heroic Spirits.

It can only be said that with the power of chat groups, all the rules of the Type-Moon world can be easily manipulated and rewritten.

Despite having an absolute advantage in every aspect, Artoria lost because of Yahweh's gift to Lily.

It wasn't a direct bestowal of power, but rather Lily receiving the power she was supposed to have ahead of time.

It is not the ideal king of blue, but the pure white king of pure dreams who reaches the end.

The deciding factor between the two lies with Avalon.

The ideal choice was the Holy Sword, but now Lily possesses this absolute defense.

Thus, with her Noble Phantasm unable to break through her defenses, Artoria was given an opening by Lily and narrowly defeated with a single sword strike.

“Sister, your power has indeed exceeded my expectations.”

At the same time that the Knight King was leaving the stage, the Hero King's condition was not good either.

While he was powerful enough when he got serious, Martha's power when she briefly regained her peak strength was simply too extraordinary.

After another crushing battle, Gilgamesh had to admit Martha's strength.

"However, what you're about to face... will be completely different from what you've experienced before."

Believers who are faithful to their gods and entrust everything to them cannot win the favor of the Hero King.

However, given the immense power Martha has displayed, it is enough for him to use his "trump card."

"Awaken, ea."

Without the obstruction of a certain Master's Command Seal, the "sword" capable of cleaving the world was finally fully revealed in the hands of the King of Heroes.

It is less of a "sword" and more of a "staff".

The three rotating cylindrical blades represent heaven, earth, and the underworld, respectively. Each blade rotates in a different direction, showing the proper form of the world. Together, they represent the "universe".

In an era older than humans or even the planets, it was a treasure among treasures, wielded by the gods to create the world, embodying pure power itself.

It splits the heavens and earth, the very beginnings of this planet, cleaves through nothingness to create the sky, and pierces through the sky to return to nothingness.

Gilgamesh described it as "the thing that knows 'the planet that was hell before the creation of the world'".

"The stage that is worthy of you has been set up..."

Gilgamesh raised Ea and swung it at Martha.

"The universe is in disarray, the star of creation has arrived!"

The pillars symbolizing heaven, earth, and the underworld began to rotate, with crimson winds swirling around them.

The compressed wind pressure fault, becoming a pseudo-spacetime fault, forms an attack that resembles a spacetime fault, seemingly about to completely shatter Martha.

It can be said that in the Type-Moon universe, the vast majority of fourth-tier gods would be unable to withstand such an attack.

Among Heroic Spirits, such a "sword" capable of cleaving the world is an unimaginable, earth-shattering power.

However, for Martha, who possesses twelve wings of light and has already reached the level of a fifth-order archangel, such an attack, while indeed stunning, was not enough to make her retreat.

"Lord... thus revealing the laws of light..."

For Martha, everything except her own fists was impure. But the holy light of the Lord could not be neglected in the slightest.

Because everything originates from the glory of the Lord.

She gathered holy light and then threw a punch.

The dazzling light filled Ryudoji Temple, capable of cutting off the wind pressure in space. However, it did not achieve a crushing victory against Martha's holy light, but instead fell into a stalemate.

Without a doubt, Gilgamesh's Ea possesses near-absolute suppressive power at the fourth tier.

Once you surpass that level, the power of the Ea is no longer so invincible.

In the end, Martha's holy light overwhelmed the crimson wind pressure of the Ea sword, utterly destroying all of Gilgamesh's defenses.

From then on, the King of Heroes became the fourth Heroic Spirit to leave the stage.

"Whoo~"

Taking a deep breath, Martha's wings of light dissipated, and her holy golden eyes returned to calm.

After defeating Gilgamesh, Martha returned to Yahweh's side and continued to serve the "Lord."

After Gilgamesh's departure, the only remaining Heroic Spirit on the Black side was Solomon.

The battle between him and Yuuka Kazami was extremely fierce and evenly matched.

After all, the Divine Fist he used could be said to be a fighting technique that had stepped into the realm of gods, and it had an unquestionable dominance in combat.

Although Kazami Yuuka did not formally study martial arts, the killing skills she honed from countless battles and fights should not be underestimated.

Chapter 182: Kazami Yuuka's Breakthrough

Although Solomon's boxing skills were powerful, he was far from being able to easily overwhelm Kazami Yuuka with just his technique, like Yahweh.

In addition to the Flower Tyrant's inexhaustible power and his monstrous strength that even caused space to tremble, Solomon could not gain a significant advantage, at least in close combat.

Of course, the same goes for Yuuka Kazami.

For her, this "Magic King" is also a rather formidable opponent.

However, observing the surrounding situation, Solomon felt a slight unease.

Although he was not at a disadvantage in his battle with Yuuka Kazami, and even had a slight advantage.

However, with all the other Heroic Spirits having already left the stage, he, the Magic King, was clearly struggling to carry the burden alone.

Okita Souji and Lily are one thing, but both Shin and Martha are formidable opponents.

Especially Martha in her angelic form, even he had no chance of victory.

It can be said that in this decisive battle at Ryudoji Temple, the black side has almost certainly lost.

While Solomon was pondering the current situation, Kazami Yuuka frowned slightly.

How dare you get distracted while fighting her?

She snorted coldly and launched an attack without hesitation, seizing the opportunity presented by the Magic King's lapse in concentration.

However, Solomon quickly realized what was happening and separated from him after a brief exchange.

"........."
