The Holy Grail War Blessed by the Gods

(9) Yu Jingzhengxue raised the katana in his hand above his head, about to swing it down and take the life of the swordsman in front of him.

Ling: "I...can't...die!"

Miyamoto Iori, lying on the ground, did not accept his fate. As he roared, the back of his tightly clenched right hand emitted a red glow.

In the instant of the stab, terrifying magic and horrific wind pressure burst forth, and the red light of the curse directly enveloped people's vision, preventing Yui Masayuki from continuing to swing the knife down.

"This light..."

4. Blinded by the bright light, Yui Masayuki instinctively shielded her eyes with her hand and made a sound of regret.

Rider, who was folded behind Yui Masayuki, did not hesitate and immediately flew forward, raising his katana in an attempt to seize the opportunity to kill Miyamoto Iori.

But it was too late. Terrifying magical light enveloped the surrounding scenery, and Rider's figure flew backward, his katana stuck in the ground for more than ten meters before stopping.

Standing in front of Youjing Zhengxue and Rider was a serpentine sword and a handsome young man dressed in white.

The moonlight shone on the sword, revealing only a merciless cold light and the color of the blue waves.

……

In this desolate wilderness of Asakusa, on the northward side near the forest, the turquoise waves and the ominous lightning collide on the plain.

The katana held by the majestic warrior in armor could not gain the slightest advantage against the serpentine sword that rippled like blue waves.

It was a stream devoid of any gentle beauty, filled only with a chilling atmosphere.

"It was quite a lively scene."

As Manjussessed this idea, he poured all his magical power into the steed beneath him.

"It is utterly disrespectful to perform a play without informing the audience of the program."

Manju shook his head, causing Zeus's lightning to reappear between Bosevaras's legs.

"Father Zeus, you set the universe in motion at high speed, burning clouds and rain with fiery lightning, hurling storms and thunder, letting burning, roaring, and terror engulf everything!"

Zeus's power was sufficient, in any sense. It was only when the effort was insufficient that he needed to use more words to gain more strength.

But at this moment, it's merely an entry, and a chance to warn those two who dared to stage their own performance.

The deafening roar of lightning streaked across the sky, waking the people of Edo once again tonight.

"That is?"

Saber, who had just been summoned by Miyamoto Iori, was still confused about the purple lightning streaking across the sky, but the two on the other side knew the identity of the newcomer.

"Is this unclaimed Rider perhaps touring the entire Edo region? It hasn't even returned to Ueno at this hour, but has come here instead."

As Izumi Masayuki said with some distress, she did not regret that her actions had caused her rival, Miyamoto Iori, who should have died and been eliminated, to survive, because that choice was her creed, and it was inviolable.

But now new changes have emerged, especially the opponent who caused us losses last night, which makes it easy to become indecisive.

"Are those your reinforcements?"

Seeing her opponent's reaction, Saber shifted her gaze back and forth before speaking.

Rider did not respond, but continued to attack with his katana.

But as soon as Rider swung his sword down, he realized that what was ringing in the sky was not only the deafening thunder, but also the terrifying lightning formed by the condensation of magic.

A sense of danger arose in Rider's heart, and she immediately jumped to the side. A bolt of purple lightning struck the spot where she had been standing, leaving a crater several meters long and charred marks.

The lightning didn't stop; instead, it intensified as the sound drew closer. Thick bolts of lightning formed pillars and fell one after another from the sky, as if a god high in the clouds had unleashed his divine punishment.

⑨ But this was only the prelude to what was to come. When the sound became deafening, the steeds, bathed in the light of thunder and lightning, with their overwhelming divine power, were about to plow the entire plain.

4. "It was an indiscriminate attack, not reinforcements, but a third party."

8. Saber immediately discerned the outcome: the horse's target was the two people standing on the ground, sparing neither of them.

"Since that's the case..."

As Death Saber swung her serpentine sword, ripples of magical energy swirled and danced around it.

3. Blue waves covered the entire sword, then dissipated, revealing a blade completely different from before.

The last sentence, "the layers of waves beneath this sword," refers to something similar to the Wind King Barrier, a treasure possessed by the Knight King.

The magic of water conceals the true form of this sword, revealing it only as a serpentine sword, which is also the water scabbard of this sword.

5. This is the necessary action to be taken in order to use the Noble Phantasm, to draw the sword from its sheath and then display the sword's fierce divine power.

Saber held the sword, which was wrapped in water ripples, in her hands, placed it in front of her, and then raised it above her head.

Azure-blue magic swirled around Saber like an underwater vortex, then converged on the raised sword.

The combined magic formed a towering column of water that stretched high into the sky before splitting into eight parts at a certain height.

The water column below is not vertical, but meanders like a snake's body, and the eight water columns that split off evolve into the shape of a snake's head.

The image formed by the magic emanating from Saber's sword resembled a giant eight-headed serpent, reminiscent of the monstrous Yamata no Orochi that once plagued this land.

"Special skill·Baqi Furious Wave!"

The true name of the Noble Phantasm spoken by Saber also indicates that the scene was indeed related to the Yamata no Orochi.

The eight streams of water that split off were actually eight simultaneous slashes, but the water magic attached to them made them appear this way.

Rider made no unnecessary movements, simply raising his katana and unleashing a torrent of magical energy that unleashed considerable power.

"Noble Phantasm..." Four

Rider's attention was slightly diverted to Saber, observing the scene that appeared. *Pfft*

"This is truly an extraordinary Noble Phantasm, and it's from an unclaimed Rider..." Tsukasa

Yu Jingzhengxue muttered to herself not far away, the current situation was somewhat beyond her control. Part Two

"Yamata no Orochi? To encounter Servants related to him repeatedly... could the mastermind behind this Holy Grail War be someone connected to Yamata no Orochi or Susanoo?"

Manju was slightly surprised. He sensed a familiar aura in the flowing water—the very same power of the Yamata no Orochi he had felt from Koga Saburo not long ago.

If it's related to these two, then we need to be more prepared. Neither of them are easy to deal with here; going in unarmed would definitely result in disaster. ⑤

However, before that, we need to deal with the current situation. It's just a giant snake made of water ripples and slashes, at most a fairly good sword technique.

"But even if it is the Yamata no Orochi, what does it matter? Typhon would have no chance against Zeus's lightning, let alone the dragons that Typhon spawned here."

In Type-Moon, Typhon's identity is the Primordial Dragon, a part of the primordial dragon.

Upon arriving on Earth, Typhon acquired the life form and properties of a dragon. Even among dragons, Typhon is almost a phenomenon, a monster among monsters, possessing a dragon purity that is nearly impossible to attain, making him a purebred dragon.

As the ancestral dragon, he can be said to be the source of dragon species in the Western world. The Hydra, the nine-headed serpent, is a derivative of him, and its nature of producing hundreds of serpents from its shoulders has created countless extensions.

The Yamata no Orochi is one of these derived giant serpents, along with other ones such as the Mangus from Mongolian mythology.

However it may be, Typhon could not defeat Zeus who wielded thunder. Although what was falling now was only Zeus's lightning, it was nothing more than a few ripples of water that retained a trace of divine power.

Manju didn't make any unnecessary moves; he simply continued charging forward, crushing everything in his path.

On the other side, Saber also unleashed her Noble Phantasm, which was a sublimation of her special skill. Based on an eight-hit combo, she recreated the disaster that the Calamity Dragon Orochi had once brought down.

Like an eight-headed serpent, the seawater, surging like a raging torrent, descended with a deafening roar, displaying the ferocity of the gods, attempting to strike down the thunder-riding steed in the sky.

The purple lightning and the raging waves collided, and the Rider on the ground seized the opportunity to unleash the magical light attached to his sword.

Purple lightning, entwined with an ominous demonic aura, formed a crescent-shaped wave of light that flew towards the sky.

Meanwhile, from the other side of the forest, light bullets made of purple flames were launched one after another and smashed into Manju in the sky.

"What an unpleasant sound. I never expected to hear such a mournful cry on the battlefield."

The falling water ripples and lightning merged and were quickly evaporated. The ominous lightning that flew in was swallowed up in the collision. Only the flames were knocked down by Manju's raised hand and the release of another power before they arrived.

Chapter Ten Sudden Rain

"Ah, ah..."

Nine. A rather deep female voice came from the forest, accompanied by eerie black and red flames.

"Dust to dust, ashes to ashes..."

Eight figures, each wielding a long, black spear, emerged from the crimson and black flames.

"Jeanne d'Arc Alter? Is this some kind of singularity, or some event I'm unaware of?"

Upon seeing this face, Manshu couldn't help but show a look of surprise.

After all, according to common sense, Jeanne Alter could not appear in a regular Holy Grail War; she was created by Gilles de Rais using the Holy Grail according to his own will.

The three of them looked quite different from what I remembered; at least their tone of voice didn't seem to belong to the Dragon Witch.

However, the ball of flame that was thrown was indeed filled with the lamentations and weeping of the dead, which was undoubtedly the power of resentment gathered from the dead on the battlefield.

The fifth one is that the flames are far removed from the image that Joan of Arc should have, and it is obviously a product of reversal.

However, its power is quite weak; at least it's something of little quality.

Manju paused briefly in surprise, but after a short while of appreciating the experience, he immediately continued on his way.

Whatever it is, try it and you'll know its true nature; it's meaningless to just stay in the sky.

“Death and lamentation should not be used in this way. You who wield this flame, I have condemned you as an evil one, and I judge you with the light created by the most good and enlightened Ahura Mazda.”

Manju's steps did not rush towards Joan of Arc, but instead landed on Kaiyan's aura.

This holy and omnipotent light allows us to unleash even greater power when facing evil.

As a power that should originally belong only to the supreme and benevolent god, it should also be used to deliver a judgment and destroy the demonic nature.

The Servant who appears with Jeanne d'Arc's face does not possess a strong Spirit Origin; at least compared to Rider and Saber, it can be considered to be of a subpar level.

Although there may be some oddities, that's all that's supposed to be shown.

The emerging magic seemed somewhat ethereal, even chaotic, making it difficult to decipher.

Therefore, Manjushri directly unleashed a Ke Yang spiritual light, causing the sacred fire to fall from the sky to purify the sorrowful and death-filled red-black flames.

"They couldn't stop them?"

Saber uttered a sound of regret, but before she could think any further, she gripped the divine sword in her hand and caused the blue waves to surge once more.

The eight consecutive slashes that were swollen and twisted did indeed possess considerable power, and when combined, they formed a highly destructive attack.

However, the range was a bit too far, preventing this Noble Phantasm from unleashing its full power.

This Noble Phantasm, as an enhancement of a special technique, has two effects: one on humans and the other on armies. In order to reach Manjusaka in the sky, it was undoubtedly used in the form of an attack against armies. Although this can expand the range, it will also lead to a decrease in power.
