Davidian's Holy Grail War

The Lion King's goal was to create a world without war. Wouldn't it be strange if such a world still had armies and people like us?

She swung her sword with all her might, repelling the two people in front of her. Then she unleashed her Noble Phantasm, emitting a crimson beam of light. Mash could only counter this attack with a pseudo-Noble Phantasm.

Mordred's berserk blessing allows her to unleash her Noble Phantasm without interruption, and her willingness to engage in close combat with them is simply a matter of her being in the mood.

"We will protect the Holy City and die here! We will become the cornerstone of the human order established by the Lion King! This is the Lion King's Round Table! Bedivere, you have your own glory, but we don't!"

Before leaving, Tristan spouted some idiotic nonsense: Lancelot and Guinevere were having an affair; Gawain's defeat in his battle with Lancelot affected his subsequent fight with me; and Lord David was betrayed and killed by me, unable to fight alongside my father to the very end.

Having said this, Mordred increased the power of Clarent in her hand, the crimson beam propelling Mash backward. But this wasn't enough to vent her anger; Mordred continued to loudly proclaim her innermost thoughts:

"You, who were caring for King Arthur on his deathbed, could never possibly understand our thoughts! Honestly, I'm furious! You only just now swaggered out like this, I'm absolutely livid! Bedivere!"

Unlike the previous battle in the mountains, where Bedivere left Mordred speechless, this time Bedivere was bombarded with Mordred's barrage of words and rendered speechless.

"That's why I don't care about my fate. This time, I must fight with all my might to become the King's Sword, the Lord's Blade! Because this is my chance, this is the last chance for us, the remaining Knights of the Round Table, to atone for our sins!"

Hearing Mordred's words, Bedivere was moved. In silence, he activated his Silver Arm, using it as a shield to stand in front of Mash and block the crimson beam attack.

Both sides were constantly increasing their efforts; this was a contest of wills between the two individuals.

Finally, Bedivere severed the light cannon and arrived in front of Mordred. He swung his silver arm and pierced through Mordred's body amidst her astonishment.

“Enough, Mordred… I’m sorry for defiling your dream.” Bedivere, at this moment, set aside her past aversion to Mordred and soothed her with understanding.

“You are a rebellious knight. The moment when you truly served King Arthur is gone forever, as is the moment when I did. The only reason I was able to witness the king’s death was because I was too weak.”

I couldn't even catch up with the battle in the final battle, and the reason you couldn't bring the King to his end was simply because your power wasn't enough.

With that, he withdrew the silver arm that had pierced Mordred's body. Mordred, now helpless, could only kneel on the ground, relying on her own strength.

"We are all useless knights, unworthy to see the king from the beginning. But even so, you still have innocent dreams."

You hate the king, yet you serve his dreams. In this respect, you are better than me; you live a more innocent life than a sinner like me. Even if you want to curse me now, it doesn't matter; your atonement will be inherited by my sword.”

Upon hearing Bedivere's words, Mordred laughed as she collapsed to the ground. However, in her final moments, she raised her hand, extending the middle finger at Bedivere, and uttered her dying words:

"So, you're quite the eloquent one, aren't you? Hurry up and think of a way to get in. Lord David and the Lion King are waiting for you. After all, only you can put an end to this matter."

“As expected, you guessed it too… Lady Mordred…” Bedivere’s expression became even more complicated upon hearing her words. No wonder Mordred would vent her feelings to him at this moment.

After saying that, Mordred also vanished, turning into golden spirit particles.

Mashu and Ritsuka watched silently as she disappeared. The enemy Knights of the Round Table were now reduced to Agravure, Tristan, Gawain, and Davian.

Mordred has her reasons for serving the Lion King... Now is not the time for sentimentality! Quickly search the area around the wall; if this wall doesn't disappear soon, everything will be over!

Dr. Roman quickly realized that the most important thing to do right now was to find a way into the royal city! This was not the time for sentimentality.

But Da Vinci just shook his head with a wry smile and said, "No, no, no, this was made by the Lion King in the royal city."

There's no external device to stop this thing; I can assure you, we can't break down this wall. We're truly out of options.

However, Da Vinci-chan's statement only reflects their helplessness here; whether others are helpless is another matter.

Take, for example, that Sun King who's always laughing and joking all the time; he's been looking forward to this situation for a long time!

Chapter 216 Decisive Battle (3)

“Pharaoh, your prophecy has come true. The Tower of the End has appeared in the Holy City.”

Nitocris respectfully reported the current situation to the Sun King on the throne; now was the perfect opportunity for them to make their move.

"Hahahahahahahahahaha!"

Ozymandias stood up and laughed heartily, finally having a chance to vent his frustrations after so long in his battle with the Lion King.

At that moment, the Sun King stood up, opened his arms, faced upwards, and shouted:

"As expected of Fujimaru Ritsuka! With that kid participating, it's no surprise that we achieved such results! No, we should say we had to do this! After all, he's the hero who can make Yu Kuang laugh! That Lion King guy must be pushed to his limit now!"

Then he lowered his arms and said to Nitocris with satisfaction:

"However, I must also give a corresponding reward. Transfer all the magic power used for the defense against the stern into the giant electric sphere! Next, I will have to use all my strength to carry out a long-range divine punishment on the Holy Capital!"

"Yes! Pyramid Composite Armor, disarm!" Nitocris immediately began direct operation, a privilege granted to her by the Sun King. "Great Electric Ball! Activate the Magic Compression Ritual! Maintain stable output from the Hot Sands to the Dark Night classes!"

【The first time I saw you was on fire. The first time I saw you was on fire.】

As Nitocris manipulated the system, the outer armor of the entire Radiant Grand Composite Temple unfolded, revealing the large electric sphere, or rather, the giant light bulb, hidden within.

Intense magic forms lightning within it, which is repeatedly compressed and can be used to bombard the holy city thousands of miles away at any time.

Ozymandias sneered disdainfully at that moment: "Hmph! Lion King, have you forgotten about me? The reason I didn't launch a direct attack on you before was simply to warn you of your Light of Retribution!"

But now that you're focused all your attention on the Tower of the End, you probably don't have the energy left, do you? I've been waiting for this opportunity for a long time. Let my divine lightning break your holy spear!

"No, I can stop the Light of Retribution! Pharaoh, please unleash your full power in the attack!"

Upon hearing Nitocris's words, Ozymandias smiled and then shouted with even greater fervor:

"I would do it without you saying so! You can just sit there fanning yourself! All punishments should be imposed by Pharaoh!"

You are but a mere king of men who is not a god... No, even if you have now become an existence equivalent to a goddess! But I am the Pharaoh, and the Pharaoh is me!

I'll show you just how far you're from being a true god-king! Open your eyes! Great Electric Ball Amon Ra! [Love of Amon!]

As he spoke, lightning shot out from the giant electric sphere and struck the golden light wall in the Holy City at an unimaginable speed.

However, this attack was not enough. Although the golden wall of light wavered slightly, it was still far from being destroyed.

"Divine Punishment! Hit! But it didn't work! The outer walls of the Holy City have a defensive barrier; the King's lightning strike couldn't directly hit the tower!"

Ozymandias's eyes flashed with a fierce light; he was truly starting to get angry, so he didn't hesitate to continue his attack and shout:

"How infuriating! Now you're resorting to strategy, Lion King! Then let's fire ten more rounds, converting half of Yu Lingji's power into magic to fill the giant electric sphere and accelerate the divine punishment!"

With King Ozymandias's relentless attacks and his own, the continuous bombardment of divine thunder finally pierced the wall of light surrounding the royal city.

At this moment, Fujimaru Ritsuka and the others, still under the Wall of Light, were stunned. This was truly a battle between gods. They never expected that even without the Holy Grail, Ozymandias would still possess such immense power.

This powerful attack destroyed the Wall of Light, which also made Davian realize what was happening outside. Davian pulled out the Nameless Sword stuck in the ground and prepared to rush over and kill Ozymandias.

That guy is really risking his life right now, going to such lengths. I originally thought he'd just send some divine beast troops to help out, but I underestimated him in this respect... It's a bit embarrassing.

“No need, David, your task is to guard the main gate. The Light of Retribution has arrived, and the annoying Sun King is no match for it.”

The Lion King's voice came from inside the main hall, and after some thought, David Ann chose to accept her arrangement.

Meanwhile, Nitocris, who was inside the Great Temple, apologized to Ozymandias and then rushed out.

The Sun Queen is indeed out of strength to fight against the Lion King's Radiant Light, but she is still in relatively good condition, so it is worth a try if she gives it her all.

A fierce collision then unfolded above the Great Temple. Even with Nitocris burning her entire Spirit Origin, she found it difficult to move forward in the face of the descending light of retribution.

After a brief silence, Ozymandias transmitted his voice to her: "I still have some strength left, do you need help? Sky Daughter - Nitocris."

There was no sound, not even a scream.

But Ozymandias could already picture Nitocris gritting her teeth and enduring it. He smiled silently and raised his hand, a powerful surge of magic erupting from his body and forming a ball of light in his palm.

It seems we can't get past this hurdle, but before we leave, we should give the Lion King a big gift.

"Alright... Lion King! Let's just say you won the Noble Phantasm duel for now! But the outcome of this battle is still uncertain! You launched this attack because of your confidence in the Light of Judgment, but that also exposed a weakness!"

"I'm still alive, you know! Divine punishment isn't powerful enough for me! I'll let you taste what my grave feels like! Even the Holy Lance is reduced to a wrecked ship under such a massive impact!"

Having said that, he gently tossed the ball of light in his hand.

The next moment, the ball of light traversed space and went directly to the top of the tower at the end of the holy city. In just a few breaths, the ball of light unfolded and transformed, revealing its true form.

The massive temple descended from above, launching its heaviest attack on the Tower of the End!

"Sunstone, colossal boulder, pyramid that rules the universe! My infinite radiance, the sun descends here! Fall! [The Great Synthetic Temple of Radiance]!"

The Great Temple and the Tower of the End collided directly at this moment, and Ozymandias's decisive blow at this critical juncture destroyed the Tower of the End in the simplest, most effective, and most powerful way.

Just as Nitocris witnessed this attack and prepared to fight back, sacrificing herself to take down the Light of Retribution, Ozymandias's voice reached her ears:

"It's alright, let's stop here. You've already done a great job, there's no need to continue. Besides, it would be troublesome if you were taken away by the Underworld, and I don't really like that dark country."

“But my mirror is for this purpose…” Nitocris was about to say something when Ozymandias interrupted her without hesitation.

"Don't be a fool, Nitocris. Haven't you heard the mirror shatter? That's enough for me. You should rest too. Pharaoh Nitocris, don't push yourself too hard. It's too kind of you to rule the darkness with your character."

Hearing the Sun King's comforting words, Nitocris also felt relieved at that moment, deactivating her Noble Phantasm and whispering, "How could that be? It's all because I was an immature pharaoh..."

The next moment, the light of punishment engulfed the Pharaoh's temple.

Chapter 217 Decisive Battle (4)

"Pyramids from the sky..." Ritsuka was truly stunned. He had never seen such a thrilling scene in the previous five singularities.

Eleven consecutive long-range lightning strikes followed by a direct collision with the pyramid.

I have a feeling that even the toughest enemy among the previous five singularities couldn't withstand such an impact, so this singularity is definitely not right from the start.

"That was indeed King Ozymandias's support. Senior! Now we can head to the royal city!"

Mashu immediately perked up. The Sun King's desperate, self-sacrificing attack had cleared the obstacles in their path, and they could finally go and meet the Lion King.

[We can't waste time here! The immense pressure to crush the era continues, and the Lion King's Holy Lance is still intact! What was destroyed just now was probably something like the lance's sheath. As long as the Lion King lives, the collapse of humanity will not stop!]

Roman quickly reminded everyone that the real battle was yet to come, and that there was no way to end this without defeating the Lion King.
