I'm in a mess, starting with a meteor shower!

He opened the box, took out the greatsword and held it in his hand. Before he could even stand up, an assassin suddenly appeared behind Fujimaru Ritsuka and thrust a dagger into his back.

However, Fujimaru Ritsuka seemed to have eyes in the back of her head, dodging Assassin's backstab with incredible agility. With her free left hand, she grabbed Assassin's arm and pulled him forward forcefully. Assassin's body was thrown into the air, and a greatsword slashed through the air.

Assassin's body was severed from its body; his head flew high into the air, and his corpse slammed onto the sand like a rag.

Fujimaru Ritsuka swung her greatsword in a circle with her right hand, flicking the blood off the blade. Then she gripped the hilt with both hands and planted it in the sand, coldly surveying the assassins present.

"The time for judgment has come! Hassans, hand over your heads!"

Volume 1: Chapter 72. Assassin's Departure

The Hassans were stunned by Fujimaru Ritsuka's aura.

They originally thought that Fujimaru Ritsuka was just a magician like Kenneth, who might know a little magic, but when facing them, professional assassins, and servants at that, she would be powerless to fight back.

Now, this magician actually wielded a greatsword and beheaded one of Hassans right away.

That's not the most important thing. The most important thing is what Fujimaru Ritsuka said at the end!

"Impossible... This feeling... Impossible!"

The inner fear made the Hassans take a step back.

"How could he say such a thing! And with that tone!"

Bai Mao was clearly startled for a moment, and even thought he was hallucinating, but he quickly came to his senses.

"No, he's just a magician!"

Yes, although they can wield a greatsword with one hand and spout that famous quote, they're not the real Lord. What's so scary about them?

After a brief period of panic, the Hassans launched another attack on Fujimaru Ritsuka, this time all of them coming out in force.

"Good timing!"

Having inherited Hassan's knowledge, Fujimaru Ritsuka immediately discerned their attack method and then charged towards Hassan and his companions, brandishing her greatsword with one hand.

The weight of the greatsword itself, combined with the force of Fujimaru Ritsuka's swing, was too much for Hassan's daggers to withstand. Even if they managed to block the blade, the force would smash their arms off and then shatter their bodies.

In addition, Fujimaru Ritsuka's speed far exceeded Hassan's expectations. She could even swing her greatsword while making the same agile movements as them.

Everyone was doing the same thing, but the Hassans were holding daggers, while Fujimaru Ritsuka was holding a greatsword that could cut them in half at the waist!

These two weapons are not even in the same league!

Furthermore, the two sides were not evenly matched, and as a result, when Fujimaru Ritsuka charged into the group of Hassans, several Hassans died on the spot.

"How could this happen!"

The entire process of the remaining Hassans being killed was extremely shocking.

"Our actions were seen through?"

The first Hassan who was beheaded in the sneak attack could be considered an accident, but this time, all four Hassans who surrounded Fujimaru Ritsuka were cut in half at the waist with a single strike, and this was done while the four of them were briefly vulnerable while surrounding Fujimaru Ritsuka.

This ability to seize opportunities is almost as if they are intimately familiar with their actions and behavioral patterns.

Fujimaru Ritsuka did not answer, but instead brandished her greatsword, relentlessly pursuing the remaining assassins.

To deal with Assassin, he not only brought a greatsword, but also equipped himself with the cards of Arash and Hyakko. Hyakko allows him to move as nimbly as Assassin, and Arash, needless to say, with the muscular EX buff, allows him to easily use the power of Hyakko to defeat Hyakko himself!

In the eyes of the Assassin, Fujimaru Ritsuka is simply an enhanced version of himself!

"That's right, I saw through your actions a long time ago."

Fujimaru Ritsuka brandished her greatsword, wiping the blood off the blade.

"Because no one understands Hassan better than me."

"So, obediently hand over your head!"

"What a joke! We are Hassan!"

The Assassins, filled with rage, charged at Fujimaru Ritsuka, only to be met with a swung greatsword.

With the added benefits of Kenshuo EX and Clairvoyance, Fujimaru Ritsuka easily killed most of the Hassans single-handedly with his greatsword, either by beheading, cutting them in half at the waist, or even grabbing a Hassan with one hand and slamming him to the ground to his death. His terrifying killing efficiency instilled fear in the remaining Hassans.

"Are you kidding me? Is this guy also Hassan? Why can he do all our moves?"

"This can't go on, let's retreat for now!"

"Where should we retreat to? Get out of his sight!"

The Hassans quickly held an internal meeting and made a decision.

"That won't do! I don't like leaving any seeds of future trouble, so please allow me to nip it in the bud!"

Fujimaru Ritsuka naturally overheard Hassan's meeting, and his magic began to surge.

"Hmph! Come and catch up with us if you dare."

Hassan and his men ignored them and simply turned and scattered in all directions. There were many of them, while Fujimaru Ritsuka was only one person. Even if they were to chase, they could only chase one person at a time. After a brief battle with Fujimaru Ritsuka, they realized that although Fujimaru Ritsuka was just as agile as them, her speed was only at the same level, and she couldn't possibly chase everyone at the same time.

However, as soon as the Hassans turned their heads, Fujimaru Ritsuka began to chant.

"We are both a group and an individual, an individual and a group, a group with a hundred appearances and a thousand transformations!"

Upon hearing the chanting, the Hassans all turned to look at Fujimaru Ritsuka, their faces filled with shock beneath the skull mask.

"This kind of treasure is impossible!"

"Go! Delusion and illusion!"

Several clones of Fujimaru Ritsuka appeared beside him.

The clones landed and immediately pounced on the fleeing Hassans. The Hassans stood there dumbfounded, staring at the clones rushing towards them. They couldn't understand why Fujimaru Ritsuka, a magician, possessed a Noble Phantasm, something only Heroic Spirits could have. They couldn't understand even more why Fujimaru Ritsuka's Noble Phantasm was exactly the same as theirs.

The same agile movements, the same skillful techniques, the ability to see through their movement patterns, and the identical Noble Phantasm.

"How could such a thing be possible!"

In despair, Hassan and his companions were killed one by one by Fujimaru Ritsuka's clones.

The assassins of this Holy Grail War have now left the stage.

Having witnessed the deaths of all the Assassins, Fujimaru Ritsuka turned her gaze to the distant main battlefield.

Lancer was already badly injured by Saber. With his Noble Phantasm revealed, Lancer, who could only use normal attacks, was no match for Saber, who was unleashing both magic and the Wind King Barrier. If Lancer had been wielding dual swords instead of dual pistols, the situation would probably have been much better, but unfortunately, he wasn't.

As for the Masters, Kiritsugu Emiya and Kirei Kotomine are still locked in a fierce battle. However, the situation is somewhat the opposite of that of the Servants. Kiritsugu Emiya is no match for Kirei Kotomine and has already sustained numerous wounds from the black keys.

Kenneth lay on the ground, bleeding and convulsing, while Weber, who had somehow appeared beside Rider, rushed over and frantically tried to stop the bleeding.

Kenneth probably won't die this time, since Fujimaru Ritsuka wouldn't stab him in the back. But a crippled Kenneth can't maintain the family's glory, so Webber will probably inherit the El-Melloi name and become El-Melloi II.

The thought that Webber would not only have to work overtime in the future, but also have a supervisor named Ken nagging him incessantly made Fujimaru Ritsuka feel a sense of joy from the bottom of her heart.

So, the last remaining battleground is the main arena for Berserker and Rider.

Under the blessing of the Command Spell, Lu Bu was being besieged by the Rider's army. Although no matter how many people came, they were no match for Lu Bu, who could take on a thousand men in a single battle, when there were enough people, quantitative change would turn into qualitative change.

Therefore, Fujimaru Ritsuka has to step in and help.

With the greatsword planted in the ground, Fujimaru Ritsuka looked at her clone beside her.

"It's up to you now."

This time, we are relying on the same power that we started with and have been using all along.

The clones drew their bows, and arrows rained down on the enemy ranks like shooting stars.

Volume 1: Chapter 73. The War Ended

The already chaotic main battlefield became even more chaotic with the arrival of Fujimaru Ritsuka.

Although the rain of arrows falling from the sky was just a light drizzle, it was still a disaster for the soldiers around Lü Bu who wanted to besiege him.

The sudden barrage of arrows cleared out the soldiers surrounding Lü Bu, but also drew their attention.

"The enemy has reinforcements from the outer perimeter!"

The soldiers immediately began to split up and advance towards Fujimaru Ritsuka. They lacked many things. For example, although they were all Heroic Spirits, they could only fight using their physical bodies and did not have Noble Phantasm bonuses. They were all just super warriors. For example, although they were all Heroic Spirits, their magical power was very low and they could not rely on magical power to regenerate themselves. But what they had in abundance was quantity!

Therefore, while maintaining the main force's siege of Lü Bu, they also separated a square formation to encircle Fujimaru Ritsuka's side.

"Being surrounded would be terrible; we need to end the battle quickly."

Fujimaru Ritsuka watched the formation begin to move toward her and knew she couldn't delay any longer.

"Clear a path for General Lü Bu, and then end the battle once and for all!"

Following Fujimaru Ritsuka's command, the first clone began to draw its bow and shoot an arrow.

"A shooting star!!!"

The enhanced arrow, having absorbed the magic power from the magic stone, transformed into a meteor that pierced through the army formation, sending all the soldiers along its path flying before landing on the ground not far from Lü Bu.

Boom—

The massive explosion scattered all the soldiers near the landing site, completely wiping out the entire area.

The impact of the explosion stirred up yellow sand, burying the soldiers around Lü Bu, but the tall Lü Bu was not covered by the sand.

He looked at the vacuum area created by the arrow and realized that the opposite side of the vacuum area was the direction where Rider was located. He immediately understood what Fujimaru Ritsuka meant.

"■■■■■!"

With a roar, Lu Bu charged directly towards the Rider.

As he charged forward, he brandished his massive halberd, like a tank starting up, crushing all the remaining soldiers who stood in his way!

"A shooting star!!!"

The second meteor landed in an area a hundred meters in front of Lü Bu, clearing out another group of soldiers.

Lu Bu stopped and began charging forward recklessly, believing that Fujimaru Ritsuka could clear the area before he arrived.

Fujimaru Ritsuka did not disappoint him; her subsequent clones simply self-destructed together.

A series of meteors fell to the ground, splitting the entire battlefield in two!

As Lü Bu looked at the open road leading directly to the Rider, the halberd in his hand immediately deformed.

Five weapons of the God of War! Fire!

A beam of light shot out and pierced through the battlefield.

At the rear of the army, Rider, who had lost his oxcart and was now riding on his own warhorse, stared wide-eyed. He had never expected that Lü Bu would have such a long-range attack, and he didn't even have time to dodge.

But his warhorse had already made a move when Lü Bu fired the shot.

The wild horse named Busifarlas leaped up and forcefully threw Rider off its back. Because it didn't have time to leave the attack range, it was hit by the beam in front of Rider and vaporized.

Boom—

The beam of light hit the ground, triggering an explosion that once again stirred up a wave of yellow sand, which engulfed the Rider.

But being tall and strong, he quickly regained his footing and emerged from the yellow sand.

He looked at the spot where the warhorse had once stood; now only a severely crystallized crater remained.

"Busifaras..."

Rider showed no sorrow. He gripped his sword and turned to look at the distant battlefield. Lu Bu, who had just fired an arrow, charged towards him through the ranks with unstoppable momentum.

"Hahaha! What a fierce general!"

Rider laughed loudly, raised his sword, and began to run on his own two legs across the sand.

He understood that his once invincible army could not stop the enemy before him, but he did not despair. Instead, he ran and shouted.

"I am Iskandar, the Conqueror! Berserker! Take my head!"

Like a tank charging forward, Lü Bu rushed in front of him after Rider shouted that.

The five war gods, transformed into giant cleavers, swung directly at Rider's head.

The sword, raised high, was no match for the power carried by the five weapons of the God of War. It was easily crushed and then, amidst Rider's maniacal laughter, was pressed against his own neck, severing his head.

Lu Bu's cleaver cleaved Iskandar's remaining body in two.

The vast expanse of yellow sand instantly vanished, and the massive military force also came to a halt. The soldiers, who had been within the established barrier, returned to the cold courtyard of Ryudou Temple.

Rider, Iskandar is out here.
