But what's the point of being cautious and timid, or afraid to take risks?

How can this be considered domineering?!

Eight enormous stone pillars rose rapidly in Orpheus, enveloping Orpheus along with another uninvited guest who rushed over.

"it is good!"

Although he went berserk, he was still a perfect knight with the 'Infinite Martial Arts' and faithfully completed the task assigned to him.

El-Melloi could naturally control the space within the Stone Formation to a certain extent, meaning that before Orpheus could even react after being surrounded...

No, even if they reacted and tried to avoid it, they would be destroyed by Artoria's light cannon when they left the Stone Soldier Eight Formations space and appeared here.

Within the Stone Soldiers' Eight Formations, there would be no room for her to move or dodge!

The next second, the light of Excalibur engulfed the Stone Soldier Formation.

"Was it successful?"

Clenching his fists, a hint of excitement flashed in El-Melloi's eyes.

"..."

Standing beside the strategist, the orange-haired Master sighed.

Since you've already set this goal, isn't the answer obvious...?

boom!

The wildly swinging chains shot skyward, slamming a heavy black object to the ground and creating a huge crater.

However, Elmero was not surprised but rather delighted.

caught!

Lancelot, who had been slammed to the ground, was tightly gripping the chains that bound him.

But then, Elmero's expression changed.

The crimson lines, representing the ability that 'knights do not die unarmed,' were slowly spreading within a meter or two of where Lancelot was holding the weapon. At this rate, it was unknown how long it would take for them to completely erode the weapon.

"When you try to seize the opportunity... is it too late?"

El-Melloi let out a sigh of relief as he helplessly loosened his clenched fists.

"However, this can be considered as skipping the process of having to progress through each stage one by one. I'm sorry, Master."

As if to engulf heaven and earth, a raging torrent of magical power erupted.

"We may have to face the final form of the BOSS."

Several chains shot out from the Gate of Babylon, severing Lancelot's hand, and then grabbed the Black Knight's body and threw him aside.

After it was completed, all the chains turned into golden light and shot into the earth, disappearing without a trace.

However, no one had time to care about where these chains went.

All the wounds on her body had completely disappeared, and the dragon goddess girl stood high in the sky.

"I was initially finding the situation somewhat interesting."

His eyes burned with a silvery brilliance, and cold words came from Orpheus's mouth.

Indeed, for Orpheus, the battles with Chaldea and the others were nothing more than playing around. Up until now, Orpheus has not directly attacked any of the friends he considers to be friends, such as Ritsuka.

A game is only interesting when it involves both sides. Originally, Orpheus was somewhat happy that Chaldea was able to hurt him head-on... even though he had held back partly.

However, they made a mistake they shouldn't have made.

Orpheus has almost no negative emotions, which is probably the conclusion anyone would draw after spending a long time with the girl.

If his progress was hindered, he would remove it; if his possessions were taken by someone else, he would take them back. Even as he carried out these actions, Orpheus never felt any anger, let alone hatred, towards the 'obstacles' or the 'possessors'.

This is true even for the great red.

Even if she gets angry occasionally, it's just a short-lived emotional reaction, at most enough to make the Dragon God Girl pout.

Not only that, but even strong positive emotional reactions rarely appear in Orpheus.

A girl who understands neither love nor hate.

However, Orpheus is now experiencing the taste of anger.

The chains were held in someone's hand, the feeling that had always been wrapped around him disappeared, and the connection with his best friend seemed to have been severed as a result.

It felt as if a fire was burning in my chest, and I had to speak out.

"Judging from your expression, you must have foreseen this outcome, strategist?"

Clang──

The crisp metallic clang resounded throughout the battlefield, carrying a certain intimidating power that even stopped the soldiers on both sides who were still fighting.

Upon hearing this voice, as if receiving some kind of order, the Uruk army, which had not retreated an inch since the start of the war, suddenly disregarded the enemy troops still behind them and retreated rapidly without caring about the losses.

The metallic sound wasn't because someone attacked Orpheus with a weapon and it was blocked, but because Orpheus himself joined his weapons together.

Two strangely shaped black longswords.

El-Melloi's pupils contracted as he suddenly remembered Emiya's words.

A weapon that is at least close to Ea in quality, and cannot be analyzed.

"Stop her!"

"Trying to pull the sky down to earth with your meager skills? Have some self-awareness!"

If you're feeling uncomfortable, you need to vent it.

The sword automatically adjusted to its optimal shape, with the string connecting the two blades.

"I won't admit defeat when it comes to archery!"

Arash ran over and drew his bow.

Ignoring the actions of the great hero from the East, Orpheus drew his bow as well, using his sword as an arrow.

"Bastard!"

call out!

With a bad feeling creeping into his heart, Arash fired an arrow, and at the same time, Scáthach, Artoria, and other warriors launched an attack.

"Guardians of the abyss, ring the bells of extinction."

Muttering to himself, Orpheus launched the 'sword arrow' from his hand.

"The flames of calamity fell from the heavens, and the raging waves of Napishtim surged forth."

The words that followed foreshadowed the end of the world.

Chapter 175 The Name of That Sword

"Well?!"

The two arrows flew and crossed paths in the blink of an eye.

The next second, a huge mushroom cloud rose into the sky, and even the soldiers who wanted to rush up had to stop temporarily.

"This power..."

El-Melloi frowned.

"That's right, too weak."

With his eyes closed, the Heroic Spirit Emiya continued the conversation.

"The attack itself is indeed powerful, but it's just a technique of illusion collapse. Even I can use it. If that's all there is to it, then any slightly better bow could do the same thing, right? But the power of that 'bow' is definitely not just that."

"So, what exactly is this ability?"

Although he had been fired up and gone crazy by the words of the Conqueror King, El-Melloi had calmed down a bit by now.

This unknown is quite ominous.

Just then, at the very center of the explosion, a golden light shot straight into the sky.

"Something's coming..."

Lily, who had been guarding Ritsuka's side, swayed her ahoge and looked up at the sky with some unease.

"This is……"

Emiya's eyes suddenly widened.

The battlefield was built within his inherent barrier, so he was naturally the first to notice any unusual changes.

Something appeared in the sky.

"An extremely strong magical reaction has appeared above... Abyss Watcher... The Bell of Extinction... Napishtim... Oh no! That Noble Phantasm is..."

Before the doctor could finish speaking, everyone in the sky felt immense pressure.

Then, it fell.

An energy meteorite burning with golden flames crashed down from above the inherent barrier.

"Everyone, prepare for defense!"

Gritting his teeth, Elmero spoke loudly.

Soon, the rising golden beam of light collided with the meteorite.

The next second, the earth shattered.

The powerful energy impact falling from the sky mercilessly tore everything apart, the ground was ripped apart layer by layer, and everyone present was also violently affected.

However, this is only the beginning... or rather, it is merely a side effect caused by the simple dissipation of energy.

Centered on the point of impact between the beam of light and the meteorite, red patterns spread out, covering most of the space within the inherent barrier in a matter of seconds.

"Doctor, do you know what this is?"

Facing the ground that was constantly being torn apart and scattered by the impact above, Ritsuka covered her eyes with her hand and asked loudly.

"This is……"
