Skadi, returning to infinity

Upon hearing Skadi's words, she couldn't help but shout out.

"Miss Sora, I know you're worried about him, but your strength doesn't allow you to act recklessly."

Skadi, who was just on the wall, suddenly appeared behind Sora.

Her left arm encircled Sora's waist, while her right hand moved up and gently stroked Sora's face.

These words, filled with sarcasm and warning, caused Sora's pupils to contract.

"Let her go." Kenneth's voice came from behind, his hands behind his back, seemingly unconcerned about Skadi's power.

"Arrogance will bring you destruction, sir."

The next second, Skadi, having released Sora, appeared behind Kenneth and sent him flying with a mere flick of her fist.

"Gurgle~" After rolling twice on the ground, Kenneth was just getting up when a high-heeled foot stepped on his back.

Pain and weakness coursed through his body. Kenneth tried to use his magic, but all his magic circuits were severed, rendering him unable to use any spells.

ability.

"you.....

This humiliation enraged Kenneth, but he was powerless to resist.

"Sorry, I didn't mean to humiliate you. I just really felt that it would be good if this Holy Grail War were over." TT

Please stop struggling in vain.

"You came to participate in this Holy Grail War because you wanted to show your strength, but when you face me, you have no ability to resist at all."

"Since things have already come to this, why persist?"

Skadi's voice, like a devil's whisper, gently guided Kenneth to do what needed to be done.

"I also..."

"You lost." He exerted force with his left leg, unleashing even greater power, pressing down on Kenneth so hard he almost vomited blood.

He couldn't be stubborn even if he wanted to; the huge gap in strength made him look like a clown.

If it weren't for close combat, he might have some options.

But the problem is, now that they're in close combat and all his abilities are sealed, what can he do?

The magic tricks he was so proud of were completely useless against someone who could easily defeat him solely through physical strength.

"You...you should let him go." p6ny

Sora only realized what was happening at this moment and wanted to stop Skadi, but she didn't dare to get close.

"I won't kill him, and I won't do anything to you."

"On the contrary, if you cooperate, I can give you anything you want."

Skadi said, looking at Kenneth.

"I know you're very unhappy about Sora's feelings for Lancer. She's your fiancée, and what she's doing is a betrayal to you, and..."

It will damage your family's reputation.

"But some feelings can't be forced. Since Sora fell in love with Lancer, that's her own choice, and you can't stop her."

There's nothing we can do to change that.

This was a direct confrontation between the two of them; Skadi didn't offer her solution and simply paused.

Kenneth...I...

Having her thoughts directly exposed, Sora's expression was strange, a mixture of embarrassment and determination.

Although she was Kenneth's fiancée, she had no feelings for him.

The person she loves is Lancer.....

If she could, she would pay any price to keep Diarmuid by her side.

But Diarmuid was unwilling to do so; he did not want to betray his "monarch" again.

"I don't want to watch romance dramas."

“Kenneth, I can promise to help you with something later, but of course it has to be something that won’t harm anyone.”

"And the price is that you let go and can't stop Sora and Lancer from being together."

"As for how the two of them got together, that's something you don't need to worry about."

"If you're worried about your reputation and your family's standing, then you don't need to worry about it."

"Sora will die after this mission and settle in Fuyuki City."

"As long as you don't come to Fuyuki City in the future, or no one comes here to look for that secret, it will basically not be exposed."

"how?"

Diarmuid's situation was becoming increasingly difficult. When Skadi said this, she put a little more pressure on her foot, causing Kenneth to show a pained expression.

"Are you trying to force me with your overwhelming power?"

Kenneth gritted his teeth. How could she possibly accept her demands after being humiliated like this?

Yes, I did use force to coerce people.

She nodded and admitted it directly.

"But that's based on the fact that I'm stronger than you."

"Since you cannot defeat me, or even resist me."

"Then you either accept my demands or you die."

This was essentially an ultimatum. Kenneth could live if he accepted, but if he refused, he would surely die here.

"...What do you think...?"

Kenneth tried to be defiant, but Skadi frowned and immediately started mocking him.

"Don't talk to me about your family's glory. I don't want to hear it, and I'm not interested."

"Whether it's family honor or a magician's pride, it doesn't matter."

"Now you are my prisoner, at my mercy."

"I've already given you some nice advice, so I don't need to give you any more kindness."

I don't know what happened these past few days, but Skadi seems to have become much more irritable.

Hearing her say that, Kenneth gritted his teeth. He'd rather die than surrender; he absolutely wouldn't allow anyone to humiliate him. p6ny

“Kenneth…” But at that moment, Sora, who had “betrayed” him, knelt down, kneeling before him and Skadi.

"Stop being stubborn, just live on..."

"You are a genius of the Clock Tower, a magician rarely seen in recent years, and your future is bright."

"It would be such a waste to die here..."

I know you're proud, but that's precisely why I don't like you...

“I know you think I betrayed you, and that Diarmuid seduced me.”

"But this is my choice..."

"I fell in love with him at first sight."

"It's not because of his mole that makes people fall in love with him, nor is it because I want to betray you."

"It's simply... I love him..."

"I would sacrifice everything for him."

"Kenneth...live on..."

"Stop being stubborn."

Sora's words came from the bottom of her heart. Kenneth looked at her, remained silent for a long time, and then slowly closed his eyes.

"You have complete control of Lancer."

By directly using the restraining force, Lancer's control was handed over to Sora, and Skadi then released Kenneth.

"Don't try to do it." Kenneth had just stood up when he tried to use magic on Skadi's back.

But in an instant, a powerful repulsive force sent him flying.

The Shinra Tensei was launched so quickly that Kenneth didn't have time to react.

"Sora, I will arrange for you to leave here. But you should also understand that from now on, you will have to stay in Fuyuki City for most of the time, and you will not be able to leave."

The Eastern Kingdom.

"As for Lancer, I will not kill him, nor do I need to kill him."

"The energy needed for the Holy Grail has been fully gathered; I am now simply cleaning up the battlefield."

Skadi led Sora out, while simultaneously ordering the Black Knight to leave Diarmuid's side.

"Lancer, from this moment on, Sora is your Master."

"Kenneth is not."

Dirumdo stared blankly, his eyes wide open.

He participated in the Holy Grail War not to fulfill any unfulfilled wishes, but to remain faithful to one monarch until the very end.

No matter what happens, he will obey the monarch's orders and fulfill his loyalty.

However, it is not that he is disloyal now, but that his monarch no longer wants him.

Sora was previously the acting Master, providing him with magical energy.

Now that Sora is his Master, it means that Kenneth has handed himself over to Sora.

Looking back at Kenneth, who was standing at the farthest point, and then at Skadi.

Although he already guessed what was going on, Diarmuid didn't know what to say at this moment.

“You don’t need to care about anything. Kenneth has abandoned you, so you don’t need to be loyal to him anymore.”
