As the supreme god, I choose to watch movies in the multiverse.

As her conversation with the Counter Force ended, Alicia awoke from her dream.

No... it shouldn't be called waking up from a dream, it should be called a resurrection. After all, she communicated with the restraint force by leaving her body, and now that her soul has returned, it's like she's come back to life.

"Ugh—" With a stretch, Alicia returned to the Holy Grail War.

However, the first scene he saw when he opened his eyes was not a cute girl, but... a room turned into ruins. From the distant jungle came the sound of swords and spears clashing, which was obviously Lancer and Saber.

"Alright, it seems I need to separate the two of them before the Outer Gods descend."

Alicia sighed, rubbing her head. Since the Counter Force directly indicated that she could fight the Outer Gods with her full strength, then in other words, she no longer needed to worry about the leakage of Honkai energy.

As the Honkai energy within her body became active, as if by magic, a pink-themed outfit appeared on Alicia's body, and the familiar bow and arrow reappeared in her left hand.

Standing atop the ruins, Alicia didn't need to personally travel to the Forest of Magic Mirrors to dissuade Saber and Lancer; a single arrow would suffice.

With the bow drawn to its fullest extent, the pink arrow rested on the string, ready to be released. As the power within his body surged, he slightly loosened his right hand, and the arrow shot through the jungle like lightning.

Its momentum, after tearing apart countless trees and bushes, did not diminish but instead grew stronger, like a free-spirited leopard pouncing precisely on its prey—

In the forest—Saber and Lancer are locked in a fierce battle. Lancer is using all his strength because of Alicia's 'death,' while Saber doesn't want to kill Lancer because of a misunderstanding, so the two continue to entangle.

However, given the current situation, Lancer, without a source of magic, will soon be defeated and die from exhaustion.

Saber didn't want Lancer to die, but... she didn't have time to worry about Lancer now. With her A-level intuition, she had already sensed that a power different from magic was flying towards them, and its potential energy was quite strong, no less than that of a normal Noble Phantasm release.

"Lancer, get out of the way—"

Saber shouted, then leaped into the air and left the spot, while Lancer, still unable to maintain his composure due to anger, was about to say something more when Saber...

The pink arrows have arrived on the battlefield, accompanied by a massive explosion. The area centered on Saber and Lancer's battlefield has been transformed into a crater by the fierce attack.

Fortunately, the arrow wasn't aimed at either Saber or Lancer; otherwise, they might have been seriously injured by the sneak attack while in battle, or even forced to leave the battlefield.

Under the impact of the enormous force, the originally furious Lancer shook his head, which was still dizzy from the shock, and he was still able to see what was attacking them—a pink arrow.

Will Lancer use a bow and arrow in this Holy Grail War? The golden Archer will probably just throw his bow as a weapon.

Immediately afterwards, a familiar voice appeared in Lancer's ear.

"Lancer, Saber, stop fighting! I have something to tell you—"

The pink figure under the moonlight was so captivating. For the first time, Alicia was not relying on pure physical strength, but on Honkai energy to fight, and a single arrow possessed such power.

It's no exaggeration to say that if Alicia wanted to, she could shoot a few more arrows and the entire city of Fuyuki would probably disappear from the map completely.

"My lord?" Lancer's eyes widened at Alicia's appearance. Was she brought back to life?

This is something only a god-level heroic spirit could do, right? Could it be that Alicia is really a god from another world?

"Alicia?" Saber was also surprised, as it was the first time she had ever seen a dead person who had stopped breathing and was ice-cold come back to life.

Fortunately, Saber's knowledge was much broader than Lancer's, so although she was surprised, she wasn't as exaggerated as Lancer.

"Hehe, Saber, let me tell you a little secret: there's no need to fight over that damned cup anymore. It's already been corrupted anyway. Compared to fighting for the Holy Grail..."

Alicia gracefully somersaulted in the air, landing flawlessly in front of Saber. She took Saber's hand, her eyes sparkling, and said, "Let's save the world together, Saber!"

"Huh?" This wasn't Saber's question, but rather the question of the viewers watching the video. Saving the world is fine, but does it have to be this exaggerated?

Could it be that the female bronze bloodline has awakened at this moment? That doesn't seem quite right. Anyway, Alicia always does things that are beyond the comprehension of normal people, so it doesn't really matter.

According to the Counter Force, defeating the Outer Gods requires at least seven Grand Ranks or seven God-level combatants. However, this Holy Grail War seems to only have one Grand Rank, Solomon. Nevertheless, adhering to the principle of recruiting as many as possible, Alicia plans to include all the Heroic Spirits who have not yet left the battlefield into the ranks of those resisting the Outer Gods.

However, persuading so many Servants is no easy task, but what can you do when it's Alicia?

Aside from Fujimaru Ritsuka, who is hailed as a Grand Succubus, she is the one most capable of attracting those Heroic Spirits.

Light screen image bullet comments——

It has to be said that Alicia's combat power is really strong, but because of her appearance and personality, many people subconsciously overlook her combat power.

Even with such formidable fighting prowess, the chances of her defeating the Outer Gods are slim.

This is not Alicia's home world. Not to mention whether Honkai energy can be fully effective here, even the form of the Origin Herrscher is not so easy to use in this world.

Bishop of Destiny: "Outer Gods, gods who exist outside the world, aside from all of them looking disgusting and driving people crazy with their sanity, there is not much information about them."

Lord El-Melloi II: "It would take at least seven Grand-rank Servants, or even gods, to have a chance of defeating them. That's... asking too much."

The Grand Order and the gods—where in a regular Holy Grail War would you find beings of that level? To see them, you'd basically have to travel through time to the Age of Gods.

King of Heroes: "A bunch of vermin who trample on my garden, even if they are powerful, are nothing more than larger insects. They are only fit to lie on the ground and look up at the glory of a king."

Durandal: "It's unbelievable that you can speak so arrogantly when facing an opponent far stronger than yourself."

King of Heroes: "Far superior? Don't misunderstand. You're a mongrel from another world. Would you be afraid of him just because he was born with sharp fangs?"

In ancient times, when faced with powerful beasts, humans often relied on their remarkable wisdom and extraordinary courage to defeat them.

Therefore... the Outer God is not something to fear; he will not be a match for humanity.

With Alicia's brilliant arrow, even though the Holy Grail War still has two days left before it truly ends, the prelude to the final battle has quietly begun.

The intervention of the Outer Gods has completely deviated from the original purpose of the Holy Grail War.

This also rendered the rules of this Holy Grail War utterly meaningless.

"An Outer God? Are you sure? Alicia, the Age of Gods has been extinct for thousands of years. If an Outer God were to appear now, and it were the Outer God in its true form, humanity would be powerless to resist it!"

Saber said solemnly that although the holy sword in her hand seemed to be just a city-defense weapon, after its liberation, it was specifically designed to deal with world calamities like the Outer Gods.

However, even releasing a few seals now would damage her spiritual foundation, and under such circumstances, the Holy Sword would be unable to exert its full power.

Alicia flexed the pink bow and arrow in her left hand, flicked her bangs, and replied, "This concerns the survival of the world. Do you think I would joke about something like this?"

Saber: "......"

Before Saber could say anything more, something unexpected happened—

Boom~~~

A violent explosion erupted from Eindzbern Castle not far away, sending a mushroom cloud soaring into the sky.

The horrific explosion instantly engulfed the entire Eindzbern Castle, turning this centuries-old castle into ruins.

The rising mushroom cloud and the explosion that shook the entire city of Fuyuki also heralded the prelude to the end of the Holy Grail War.

Countless pairs of eyes across the city turned to the site of the explosion, their eyes filled with fear and confusion. The impact of the explosion could be felt by almost the entire city, and even the earth was shaking.

"What happened—Irisviel?"

The drastic changes at the castle left Saber with no time to worry about Alicia. With the Command Seals in Kiritsugu Emiya's hands, she could clearly sense that Kiritsugu was still alive, but... Irisviel was still in that castle.

"That's... a Servant?"

Alicia looked over and saw yet another Servant appear. Was it an ally sent by the Counter Force? Or an enemy?

However, that Servant shouldn't be the culprit behind the explosion, because neither Alicia nor Saber sensed any magical fluctuations. To be able to turn such a large castle into ruins in an instant, there's no doubt that it was that guy, Emiya Kiritsugu.

To ensure their ultimate victory, they've even secured so many explosive devices at their own base—what a dangerous and terrifying bunch.

.........

"Is he dead? No... he isn't."

Amidst the ruins of the explosion, where smoke and dust had not yet dissipated, Kiritsugu Emiya looked at the red figure slowly approaching.

Servant... the eighth Servant? No, it should be the ninth Servant!

Under Kiritsugu Emiya's gaze, a tall, muscular, dark-skinned man slowly walked out of the ruins, carrying in his arms Maiya Hisa, who had fallen unconscious due to the explosion.

"Although this person treats himself as a tool, she has been your assistant for many years. Do you really not care about her life or death at all? This guy doesn't have King Arthur's sword sheath on him."

The red Archer spoke in a relaxed tone, as if the explosion just now was nothing more than child's play to him.

Kiritsugu Emiya did not answer, but simply pointed his gun at the red Archer; this was the only way he could feel at ease.

"The ninth Servant, judging from his performance just now, is Archer. He seems to know me very well. He has restricted all my actions from the beginning, and I have no chance to use Command Seals at all."

Kiritsugu Emiya was somewhat troubled and puzzled as to why this Servant was so familiar with his methods, and even knew about the Saber scabbard inside Irisviel's body.

The mysterious Servant disregarded Kiritsugu Emiya's vigilance. Although killing Kiritsugu Emiya would still achieve his goal, he was, after all, his adoptive father who had raised him for more than ten years, and the red Archer simply couldn't bring himself to do it.

However... it's hard to imagine that the restraint force actually retained its rationality. Hmph—it was clearly using this body after stripping it of its rationality before, but now... it's surprisingly acting like a good person.

Although the mission is to assist a pink-haired girl, it's probably permissible to eliminate a child who hasn't even grown up yet, outside of that mission...

"boom--"

While Red Archer was lost in thought, a golden blade slashed out. After instinctively dodging, Red Archer noticed that Saber had arrived at the castle at some point.

Was it because Saber's familiar aura brought a long-lost sense of security that he failed to issue a warning?

Fortunately, because Hisamu Maiya was still in her hands, Saber did not use her full strength in her attack, but prioritized saving Hisamu Maiya.

At this moment, Saber was scrutinizing the Servant before her. Judging from his reaction just now, this person was no ordinary individual.

Facing a familiar face she hadn't seen in who knows how long, Archer greeted Saber with a hint of joy, under her questioning gaze, "It's been a long time, Saber! It's truly a rare treat to see you again."

.........

Meanwhile on the other side.

Aside from the Red Archer reminiscing on the ruins of Einzbern Castle, another reinforcement sent by the Counterforce also appeared at Ryudou Temple on the hilltop.

Without any Master present, a figure is slowly emerging.

First the legs, then the waist, then the back, and finally the face.

It was a woman dressed in silver female armor, with a dark blue combat apron and a dark blue cloak billowing wildly in the night wind.

At the top of the dark blue stockings, her fair skin was faintly visible beneath the skirt armor. On a magnificent flagpole, the tulip flag, representing ancient France, fluttered in the wind, showcasing the glory and honor of that era.

The delicate and resolute face, and the bulging chest that makes the clothes appear very tight and obvious, all show the charm of this person.

The most dazzling feature was her pair of firm yet gentle blue eyes, which seemed to speak volumes and were full of lively beauty.

While revealing the full picture, the newly appeared girl also told the audience in the multiverse about her identity in front of the light screen image.
