Magicians, born of humankind, use their beliefs and theories to guide their descendants. We, the magicians who separated from the King of Magic, are here to live through each era for this moment, engraving the curse of the Demon Pillars into our genes and passing it down until we reach the age of responsibility.
Then, in 2016, from the moment I, as the last person in charge, realized that I was the inhabitant of the Demon God, your history came to an end. The resources recovered were already sufficient. But—”
Rafe answered Mashu's question in a rather casual manner. Of course, this was not only Mashu's question, but also that of Dr. Roman and Leonardo da Vinci.
In the end, Rafe could no longer endure it. He slammed the staff in his hand into the ground, and the demon pillars guarding the first gate around him all awoke.
"You Chaldean bastards have managed to survive until now. Why, why have you survived? Was it my fault?"
No, that's not it. It's because there was someone who slipped through my fingers and got away with it. Am I right, Romani Archiman!
Or are you deliberately trying to play the clown in front of me? If so, that's a real shame; I had actually developed some friendship with you.
"Of course, you can't possibly see Romani's true nature. This man never trusted any human being before I was summoned to Chaldea."
He didn't know the reason, he didn't know who the enemy was, and he couldn't even guarantee that it would actually happen. He firmly believed in such delusional human crises and dedicated his entire life to them. This was the ten years Romani Archmann spent in—a hell where not a minute of rest was possible. How could someone like him possibly reveal his true nature in front of his classmates!
Only Leonardo da Vinci, who had worked with him for so long, could truly understand Romani. Rafe simply narrowed his eyes.
"Of course I noticed his suspicious behavior, which is why I arranged for him to die in the explosion in the control room."
This plan ultimately failed, but that didn't matter much anymore.
"Right now, our king is somewhat unavailable, so I will handle the matters I left behind here."
One by one, the slumbering Demon God Pillars were uprooted from the earth, their immense magical power manifesting itself. Nine
"Listen up! My name is the Demon God Floros! One of the Seventy-Two Demon Gods, the One Who Controls Information! Let me see how much you've grown!"
One after another, demonic pillars surrounded Fujimaru Ritsuka and Mash, standing tall on the earth like a giant's outstretched hand, enveloping the two in its palm.
The Demon Pillar's eyes flickered, and its immense magical power unleashed a torrent of light and heat, blasting towards Fujimaru Ritsuka and Mash in the center of the arena from all directions.
Mashu remained on high alert, raising her shield the moment Rafe launched his attack, providing comprehensive protection.
During this conversation, Fujimaru Ritsuka also prepared a simple summoning.
The Demon Pillar's enormous body could undoubtedly be considered a behemoth, and not long ago, Fujimaru Ritsuka met a hero who hunted such a behemoth.
The silver-white Knight King, responding to his bond, appeared on the field through a simple summoning technique, immediately wielding his golden sword and meeting the Demon God Pillar with shimmering starlight.
The Knight King's sword was both an unstoppable, sharp weapon and an unshakeable, sturdy shield. The gleam emanating from the Demon Pillar was blocked by the golden sword, which then cleaved through the Demon Pillar, a mass of flesh and blood.
But that was still not enough. The Demon God Pillar that had been severed and killed reappeared in the time it takes to breathe.
"It's no use! Nothing we do will work!"
Lef, transformed into a demon god pillar, let out a wild laugh. Here, he was practically invincible, an opponent with no way to defeat him.
"That laughter is a bit too noisy. Ugh, such an annoying thing, can't you be quieter and more likable?"
Chapter 189 The Amyrlin Seat
When the Demon Pillar Floros was destroyed and instantly regenerated, his thunderous laughter also summoned the Demon Pillars entrenched in the area to launch a full-scale attack.
The seventy-two demonic pillars are not a title, but a description of the state of the demonic pillars; they are this space itself, this temple itself.
The number of Demon Pillars will remain at 72 forever. Unless they are all destroyed and the Grand Temple of Time is completely dismantled and destroyed, they cannot be defeated.
Once the demon god revealed its immortality, it no longer concealed itself, stopped its playful antics, and began to formally annihilate Chaldea's resistance.
The targets of the attack were not only Fujimaru Ritsuka and Mashu who were advancing into the singularity, but also Chaldea who had entered the singularity.
Several demonic pillars burst forth from the spot where Chaldea had fallen, rising from the earth and launching an attack on Chaldea with their magical power and enormous bodies.
Chaldea's defenses are actually weaker than those of Fujimaru Ritsuka and Mash. The only one who can truly deal with the Demon Pillars here is probably Leonardo da Vinci, a Servant.
The friction created a massive physical impact, directly affecting the entire facility on Chaldea, causing the huge structure planted in the ground to shake violently, and its interior to become unstable due to the shaking.
"Whoa, what happened?! What was that impact just now?!"
Chaldea's attention was entirely focused on Fujimaru Ritsuka, but they seemed to have no idea that their headquarters had been attacked.
After all, this was the first time they had encountered such a situation, the first time they had entered a singularity, unlike before when they were in a safe environment and did not have to worry about the enemy potentially having too much of an impact on this place.
At least for now, apart from the Mad King in the Fifth Singularity, who was able to use the immense magical power of the Holy Grail to allow his demonic spear to traverse space and threaten Chaldea, he has not encountered any other threats.
"It's an external shock; the second-order theory shows over 60% damage! The northern observatory has collapsed! Excessive stress has been confirmed on the observatory roof! Collapse is expected in 5 minutes...!"
If the roof is destroyed, the absence certificate for the control room cannot be maintained! [Unintelligible text]: "If this continues, Chaldea will fall into a bubble state and be absorbed by the Temple of Time!"
"The precision of the pseudo-spiritual particle calculation has exceeded the perceptible range! The strength of the offensive theory is decreasing!"
The staff observing the equipment reported that Chaldea was ultimately a research institution, not a battle fortress, and could not withstand too many attacks from the outside.
"Cut off all power supply to the building except for the central one, and allocate the core's power resources to offensive theory and Chaldea! Protect the control room at all costs!"
Dr. Roman quickly gave the order, then looked at Leonardo da Vinci to the side.
"Leonardo, how's the stockpiled resources at your factory doing?"
"It's being transferred to the supercomputer used for spirit particle calculations, but that's just a drop in the ocean, Romani! What's binding Chaldea are the Demon Pillars, a total of eight Demon Pillars, currently binding Chaldea from the outside! Although I can go out and deal with it, even if I'm prepared to perish together with them, I don't know if I can even take down one of them! This completely fails to solve the fundamental problem; the only solution is to completely eliminate the singularity before Chaldea collapses!"
But this seems even more impractical, since adding a base would only allow it to last a few more minutes.
"Hahahaha, this is impossible, impossible, gentlemen! Where can you find such firepower, such a legion? That's right, you can't find it anywhere, you simply don't have it!"
The rampant laughter of the demonic pillar Floros, which Leif had transformed into, echoed here. Of course, he could hear the sounds coming from Chaldea. Fujimaru Ritsuka's communication with Dr. Roman had not been cut off.
The howling magic swept across the land, and intensely hot magical rays shot out continuously from the eyes of the demonic pillars surrounding the area, almost covering the land where Fujimaru Ritsuka and Mash stood.
This seemed to be a complete dead end. The two were like a lone boat struggling to survive in a stormy sea, with the intense heat of the magic covering the earth like waves constantly crashing against them.
Mashu's shield may still stand firm on this land, but people eventually run out of strength. Just as a sailboat in the waves will eventually be smashed to pieces and swallowed up by the constant battering of the wind and waves.
"Let's end this journey here, along with Chaldea! Hahahaha...!"
The laughter of the Demon Pillar Flauros seemed never to cease at this moment; from any perspective, he was already certain of victory.
But this is not allowed; the boundless, maniacal laughter is quite irritating to listen to.
So, in order to eliminate this unpleasant sound, lightning burst forth in this space outside of time, instantly transforming into a vast thundercloud, with countless bolts of lightning covering the earth like raging serpents.
The several demonic pillars surrounding Fujimaru Ritsuka and Mashu were destroyed in an instant, and the massive bodies made up of corpses turned into charcoal in an instant under the lightning.
"Well, after seeing Rahm, I can barely tolerate the appearance of the two Demon Pillars. However, it's better to destroy all of these things. There's no need to let them pollute our eyes."
While the Demon Pillars can eventually evoke a strange sense of beauty after a while, the corpse-like bodies and rows of red eyes on them are still unsettling to look at.
At least the demonic pillars that appear here are not things that people find pleasant to look at; their bloody and ferocious appearance is somewhat unsettling.
"It's you! The guy who's been helping Chaldea since the Fifth Singularity. Even if you can help them cross the previous Singularities, it's still not worth mentioning."
The Demon God Pillar Flauros was reborn once again. Although the sudden appearance of the enemy was somewhat surprising, that was all.
At this moment, they are immortal and indestructible, how could ordinary people possibly be their opponents? Of course, that is impossible. They are invincible and unbeatable beings.
"go to hell!"
The reborn Demon Pillar, without much preamble, immediately unleashed a massive burst of magical power to attack Manju.
No matter how powerful the enemy is, they cannot overcome them because of their immortality. As long as they keep regenerating and keep attacking, even the strongest opponent will fall here.
"It seems you still haven't realized anything. Since there are Servants coming here, it's natural that there isn't just one Servant arriving here."
"Eastern Territory Divine Hedgehog 4th Edition. Proxy Purchase^: ⑨∏∏Similar〓Rake Two Four san£“san跉:5, Burning. Enemy Servants, Increase."
"Western autonomic nervous system damaged. Enemy Servants confirmed as 24 riders."
In the sky, meteors fell like rain, and the demon pillars in various regions began to collapse one after another.
"Is this a dream? Or has the measuring device malfunctioned? Summoning rituals have been activated one after another in various singularities! There are no catalysts or summoners, they have been activated spontaneously! Relying solely on the thin thread of fate that was once formed, the spirit origin reactions are ten, twenty, thirty—and still increasing!"
The Servant reactions kept appearing on Chaldea's monitoring equipment, prompting Dr. Roman to shout in disbelief.
"Could it be that this singularity exists outside of time, thus becoming a shortcut to entry?"
"It's still irrelevant. No matter how many gather, they are merely extensions of humanity. They are not a group like us, but beings that can only survive and fight alone."
Annihilate, sweep away, eliminate. These mere Servants are no match for us, and are not the reason for the defeat of the seventy-two Demon Pillars.
The golden demon pillar Ose disregarded the situation; as a group, their characteristics allowed them to disregard the existence of individuals.
But that's not the case. The Servants who came to this singularity as shooting stars did so in response to trust and the calls for help.
They too are bound by selfish desires, but at this moment they are able to put aside their past and fight together as comrades who can entrust their backs to each other.
Responding to the call, the army of Servants, who arrived as a meteor shower, suppressed the Demon Pillars.
"Very well, since you want to wage a total war, then so be it!"
The Demon God Pillar Flauros already knew that this matter was beyond his control; at the very least, the large number of Servants could indeed break through their blockade.
Although they are immortal beings, if they are held back, the path they block will still be opened.
Naberius the smelting furnace, Floros the intelligence room, Phenius the observatory, Tababatos the control center, Shehapas the armored weapon, Amon the spies, Spornak the Institute of Life, and the abandoned Conandumalius.
These eight demon pillars jointly govern the eight gates leading to the Magician's Throne. Apart from the last exhaust vent, the first seven gates each represent a singularity, and the demon pillar that appears at that singularity is the one that represents it.
"Intelligence Room, court in session! Activate! Nine Pillars in charge of the Intelligence Room, we Nine Pillars comprehend the written word, we Nine Pillars recite the matters, we must not allow this research to disappear!"
"Enemy Servant group locked, annihilation imminent! Activate, Pillars of the Forge! We, the Pillars, are masters of music. We, the Pillars, compose songs. We must not let this light be extinguished!"
……
All 72 Demon Pillars are resurrected across 9 parts to deal with the arrival of Servants who transform into a meteor shower.
This is a protracted battle. Although the Servants' attacks cannot kill the Demon Pillar, they can prevent the Demon Pillar from connecting with the Throne.
"The diffusion of the terminal unit has been confirmed, the connection with the jade seat has been severed, and it has begun to focus on self-repair."
Although the number of Demon Pillars will not decrease no matter how many there are, their power can be reduced.
As long as you keep defeating them, making them repeat the process of being defeated and regenerating, then these demon pillars will be unable to do anything.
The disconnected demon pillars also stopped supplying magic to the throne from the areas they controlled, making it impossible for them to return to the central throne.
"It's impossible for one person to get rid of this bunch of scum. With the Servants here suppressing the Demon Pillars, you can now focus all your efforts on advancing toward the Throne."
The Servants' battlefront has completed its mission; the Demon Pillars in each region have been suppressed, and the path to the Throne is now fully visible.
Fujimaru Ritsuka and the others knew how to proceed, since they had seen this area before.
Draco's cosmos was modeled after this place; it shouldn't be said that it was a complete replica of the Magic King's ritual.
"My lord, our temple has been invaded. Such a barbaric act was not in our plans, and we should discuss countermeasures as soon as possible. If this continues, the throne will be undefended, hindering your work. Our objectives cannot afford the slightest mistake. The newly designed structure cannot tolerate the slightest distortion. Your work must be carried out in silence, but we are unable to repel the heroic spirits."
"My King, grant permission to use the Third Noble Phantasm. By virtue of its existence at birth, it should correct the light bands of all things and incinerate all the Heroic Spirits." (8)
