"Well……"

In a secluded spot not far away, Ritsuka frowned.

"Our Berserker has left the stage."

Elmero sighed.

He originally thought that with Hercules' abilities, he could survive a few more lives, figure out some of the opponent's methods, and then retreat safely. He never expected to be killed in one move.

His worst fears came true.

This Hero King not only possessed power no less than any other Hero King he knew, but also unfathomable and mysterious methods, and lacked the pointless arrogance that prevented him from taking minor characters seriously.

However, he quickly rallied his spirits, realizing that pointless wavering would be of no use to the battle.

"Now you understand, right? You can't deal with Tokiomi Tohsaka's Servant by yourself. Instead of wasting your time, why don't you cooperate with us?"

El-Melloi looked at the man standing next to them, whose face was hidden by his hood.

"What are you saying...cooperation...we've even lost our Servants..."

The hooded man, Matou Kariya, appeared to be in considerable pain, and was panting heavily as he spoke.

"Hey, are you alright?"

Looking at this person, Ritsuka's lips twitched.

"You don't need to worry about the servants. Our number of servants far exceeds your imagination. You just need to state your decision."

"Wow, this dialogue really sounds like the villains in a dark secret."

Ritsuka interrupted again with her own comment.

"I... understand. As long as I can have the chance to defeat Tokiomi Tohsaka and his Servants..."

"Then, the alliance is formed."

El-Mello flicked his cigar, revealing a smile that said everything was going according to plan.

"This is the card that best counters the King of Heroes..."

Chapter 130 The First Battle Ends

Hercules was instantly killed by a single shot, leaving everyone around him in silence.

Saber finally recovered from the shock of being blown away and quickly ran to her wife, Irisviel, her expression more solemn than ever before, her gaze fixed on Orpheus.

"Hey, hey, hey, those abilities and Noble Phantasms are way too overpowered! And how could someone with those physical abilities only be an E-rank?!"

Webber followed suit, letting out a cry of surprise, but also a sense of relief.

You know, that big guy's attributes are almost all A or higher!

That monster was instantly killed...

Fortunately, she didn't attack my group, and I didn't order Rider to ambush them.

Otherwise, it wouldn't just be that big guy who got blasted to pieces.

"Hmm, it seems this young lady is quite a formidable opponent."

Iskandar, the Conqueror, also showed a rare hint of seriousness in his expression, but he quickly burst into laughter again.

"Haha, not bad, not bad, this makes it worth conquering."

"You... really..."

Waver could only sigh helplessly at such a follower.

"Its Noble Phantasm is conservatively estimated to be above A-rank, possessing an almost instantaneous and incredibly powerful attack capable of destroying a Servant with A-rank durability in a single blow."

Hidden in the shadows, Saber's true Master, Kiritsugu Emiya, held a sniper rifle and stared intently at Orpheus, his brow furrowed as he analyzed the situation.

"Although the weakness seems to be only E's physical abilities, judging from the battle just now, this information is not accurate. It may be the effect of the Noble Phantasm or the ability of the skill. In any case, the physical qualities that the opponent can exert are definitely far beyond E's. We must consider the possibility that it may even surpass Saber. At the same time, it has a strange ability to pass through objects, even living beings. We cannot figure out the principle for the time being, and we don't know if it can be used to make attacks that ignore defenses."

It would have been better if he hadn't analyzed it, but once he started, Kiritsugu Emiya realized that the Holy Grail War was truly beyond saving.

If that kind of penetrating power is truly invincible, then even the Knight King of Avalon would probably find it difficult to become its opponent.

However, there is a way.

Since we can't deal with the Servants, we should just target their Master.

With the title of 'Magician Killer', Kiritsugu Emiya's skill in dealing with magicians is beyond doubt.

As long as he finds an opening, Kiritsugu Emiya is confident he can kill the head of the Tohsaka family in one blow.

The only difficulty was how to lure them out of the Tohsaka family's magic territory, but Kiritsugu Emiya didn't believe that they could really stay inside forever.

There will always be an opportunity.

But before that, we must protect Saber and Irisviel.

With this in mind, Kiritsugu once again focused his attention on the battlefield with tension.

If the other side attacks Saber and Irisviel here, that would be troublesome.

Even so, Kiritsugu Emiya seemed to have no other options. Even though the other party looked like a somewhat violent magician, he wouldn't naively believe that the Origin Bullet could have any effect on the heroes etched in history.

But if the situation gets to the worst point, these are the only ways to attract the other party's attention.

Below, Saber, with a solemn expression, raised her sword and looked at Orpheus.

The opponent's abilities are too bizarre, and we must also be wary of that strange sword.

She believed she could use an attack with the same power as that sword, but she could never launch it instantly.

Such an attack... is truly impossible to defend against.

We can't deal with this enemy for now; we need to find a way to retreat first...

At this moment, Orpheus ignored the battle-ready Saber and turned to look at the man in black armor.

For her, the only things that matter are her friends and the opponents who will stand on the final stage. As for this inexplicable darkness, since she has encountered it, she can just deal with it as it comes.

Her purpose in accepting the summons was not the Holy Grail War. To her, the war was merely a means to form a contract with her Master. The sooner she could complete the contract, the sooner she could do what she wanted to do.

Since that's the case, let's finish this quickly.

As he thought this, golden ripples appeared behind Orpheus, radiating an awe-inspiring aura.

But at that moment, the black armor turned into black mist and disappeared.

"..."

The atmosphere became slightly awkward for a moment.

Orpheus was silent for a moment, then turned around and glanced at Rider and Saber, which made Saber wary and Waver sob.

"Who exactly are you?"

After a few seconds of eye contact, Saber asked seriously.

“I am Archer, and my name is Orpheus.”

Saber hadn't expected an answer, but Orpheus smiled slightly at her and gave her his reply directly.

Since it was a question from a friend and contained information that wasn't particularly important, Orpheus naturally gave a casual answer.

Then, Orpheus turned around gently and disappeared in spirit form.

For her, Saber was never an enemy from the beginning, and Rider is not an enemy now.

The battle is over.

Almost everyone present breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing Orpheus leave.

The overwhelming force they just experienced left a deep impression on them... Of course, as heroic spirits, they could withstand such a level of hardship, but before they could figure out that strange ability, probably no one would want to be their enemy.

In comparison, the previous occurrence of two Berserkers can be investigated later.

And it wasn't just those present who breathed a sigh of relief.

"The King of Heroes has retreated on his own."

Upon hearing Kirei Kotomine's report from the other end of the communicator, Tokiomi Tohsaka finally felt a huge weight lifted from his shoulders.

Although she revealed a lot of her trump cards, even her real name... Tokiomi was helpless against such an uncontrollable Servant... At least the final result was not bad, and she successfully eliminated one of the Berserkers.

When Tokiomi Tohsaka first heard that Orpheus had deliberately provoked so many Servants, he felt a chill run down his spine.

Fortunately, Orpheus's strength was far greater than he had imagined.

However, thanks to Kirei's casual remark and perhaps some unknown motive, Tokiomi Tohsaka subconsciously overlooked the fact that Orpheus's physical abilities far exceeded the apparent numerical values.

"But two Berserkers..."

Considering the information he had just received, Tokiomi elegantly rubbed his temples.

"It's probably an illegal summoning by some magician, but since it's already out of the game, it's no longer a threat. Let Assassin investigate a bit, but if we don't find anything in the short term, we shouldn't waste any more energy on that."

Then, they made that judgment very easily.

"Yes, I understand, my teacher."

Kirei Kotomine's voice came through the communicator, devoid of any emotion.

Chapter 131 The Alliance Behind It

Orpheus stood atop a building, looking down at the skyscraper before him.

Hyatt Hotel.

As long as the problem isn't too complicated, the Omniscient Star will automatically provide the answer Orpheus wants, even without being actively activated.

The answer we got from this was that this was the base of Lancer's group.

Since he had said he wanted a quick victory, Orpheus wouldn't give the enemy a chance to rest and recover.

Once this is finished, I'll take care of Berserker as well.

Then find Caster and make him leave the field; at this stage, there will be no more opponents to deal with.

All that's left is for Chaldea to prepare the stage, and then this war can be completely ended.
