Immediately afterwards, a mushroom cloud formed from condensed dust shot into the sky, spreading out with immense heat and impact. Evolto, who was retreating at supersonic speed, snapped his fingers several kilometers away and locked onto her using his own senses. The side guns of the space battleship Root Destruction fired high-temperature particle cannons that penetrated the thick dust and bombarded the location of Bai Aina.

"Muda... Muda Muda." Standing still, Bai Aina could feel that after transforming using the two Fullbottles, the Blood Clan genetic factors within her had entered a wondrous state. An invisible shielding field spread out, blocking all the attacks and protecting her from any harm.

The Aim armor activated again, but this time, it didn't transform into wings as before. Instead, it manifested as wings of light composed entirely of purple thunder and crimson storm, with the two forming a Möbius strip that appeared behind Beaina.

"..." Evolto stopped roaring. He could clearly sense it. The woman standing before him, Baina, was no longer a lowly being. Despite the impurities mixed in, there was no doubt... she was one of his own kind.

"How about it, are you surprised? Are you happy? Shouldn't you cheer?" Bai Aina said exaggeratedly in a melodious tone, as if chanting.

“You remind me of bad memories.” Evolto recalled his life back on his home planet, and his killing intent shifted from one phase to another.

"Heh, we're in the same boat." As she said this, Bai Aina could feel the energy surging within her, which gave her immense satisfaction.

“It’s been a long time since I’ve said that, so… let me think about it for a bit.” Slightly flexing her fingers, Bai Aina looked at Evolto, who stood several kilometers away, conveying her thoughts directly to him. Facing the prince of the Starhunter clan, she loosened her clenched right fist, pressing her thumb down. “Despair is your end.”

"Stop spouting nonsense!" The raging iron fists exploded again, as Baina and Evolto's fists slammed into each other's faceplates. But this time was different; the two, each possessing a gravity field, were able to overcome each other's gravity barrier fields, enough to inflict damage on each other.

"Ora ora ora ora ora!" Relying on the Wings of Light and the high-speed boost unique to the Star Hunter Clan, Bai Ai Na's speed increased to another level. At this moment, even ninjas with dynamic vision could not clearly see the attacks she launched. Every strike hit Evolto's armor squarely, attempting to penetrate the inside.

"Muda Muda Muda Muda Muda Muda!" Evolto's counterattack was equally fierce. With the armor components formed from the Genius Fullbottle, he was able to accurately capture Baina's attack trajectory and use his excellent predictive ability to counteract the future prediction of Observation Haki, causing the battle line to be continuously extended.

"Hahahaha! This is real fighting!" Every punch landed with unmistakable force, and Bai Aina could only describe her joy at this nostalgic feeling. "Come on, Evolto! Make me even happier!"

Both had abandoned their defenses. Bai Aina could sense that Evolto had activated his enhanced abilities, each punch being fifty times stronger than normal, each strike carrying special energy that directly ignored the armor used for defense, penetrating the inside of her body and damaging her body structure at a microscopic level.

But... so what? The intense pain only fueled Baina's fighting spirit. Overjoyed, she swung her fists, launching an even more ferocious attack. Each punch created a tiny, simulated black hole, directly shattering Evolto's armor and destroying his physical body.

"You madman!" The shattered armor continued to repair itself, and the pulverized tissues regenerated. Unlike Bai Aina, Evolto couldn't turn pain into fighting spirit. He dared not stop his attack; he knew that if he stopped or turned to run away, Bai Aina would surely strike him through the back.

"Die!" A fist-sized pseudo-black hole appeared in her palm. Bai Aina crushed it, and her specially made armor absorbed the energy contained within. With an irresistible force and power, it directly broke Evolto's crossed arms, and her small pink fist pierced through the hard chest armor and embedded itself in his chest.

Chapter Fifty-Seven: Blood, complete!

“That was an incredible scene, one I’ll never forget.” Rick Kader, 24, is a researcher at Shocker. He recounts what he witnessed, a scene he’ll never forget. “The Kamen Rider that girl transformed into was practically monstrous.”

Having healed his injuries using the Phoenix Fullbottle, Evolto made one last desperate attempt, unleashing a simulated black hole from his right fist, just like the one used by Bai Aina. However, the gray-haired girl, though frenzied, remained remarkably calm. Using her Observation Haki, she predicted the trajectory of his punch and delivered a direct kick to his elbow.

“The leader is indeed an extremely powerful alien, who even destroyed the civilization established by the King of Mars and shattered a large number of their massive weapons.” Rick Kader pondered, then said with a sudden realization. “To be honest, I don’t want to believe it either… but that Kamen Rider’s movements were just too swift and fierce.”

Before Evolto could strike himself again, Baina preemptively delivered a precise tranquilizer dart to his chest. The shockwave radiating from his chest and body armor made his bones feel like they had turned to slush, and even his mind was paralyzed.

She grabbed Evolto's knee as he slammed into her, the impact making him dizzy, but the intense pain brought him back to his senses. Enraged, Bai'ina grabbed one of his arms and ripped it off his ribs.

"I never imagined that battles could be so fierce and beautiful. That Kamen Rider is just like a Valkyrie."

"Damn it!!!" Unleashing all the energy within his body in the special alteration reactor, the pitch-black sphere rapidly expanded, completely engulfing everything around it, crushing them into fragments under the terrifying simulated black hole. Evolto had already used his last trump card; if this continued, he might as well just self-destruct.

"Trying to self-destruct? No way." She charged directly into the simulated black hole, using the shielding field on her armor and her own spatial isolation field to barely withstand the pressure and get closer to Evolto.

"Die!" Just then, Evolto, who had gathered all his energy and was waiting for the opportune moment, kicked out with all his might. Bai Aina, who had no time to dodge and whose defensive measures had been worn away by the simulated black hole, was kicked in the left rib.

Her entire left rib was embedded in her body, compressing her internal organs. Even for Beaina, such an attack would be painful. However, blinded by rage, she ignored the pain and clenched her fingers into Evolto's face.

"The only one who will die is you!" The vibrations emanating from her five fingers resonated on Evolto's helmet, shattering the observation devices extending from both sides. Bai'na grabbed him and slammed him into the primordial sea. "You despicable alien who dared to lay a finger on a young girl, today I will punish you on behalf of heaven!"

Evolto desperately wanted to claim he was innocent; as an alien life form, he had absolutely no sexual interest in Earth girls. But now, he was gripped by a terrifying sense of impending death, a feeling that clung to his spine like a leech.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!" Mushroom clouds rose from the primordial sea and shot into the sky. Because they were mixed with the evaporated seawater of the primordial sea, the mushroom clouds that shot into the sky were pitch black and looked very eerie.

After dragging Evolto out of the dark sea and throwing him onto an open ground not far away, Baina felt utterly exhausted.

"You bastard..." Dragging his broken body, Evotlo stood up again; he was not going to let himself die on his knees.

"Um, sorry." With a flick of her wrist, she unleashed two shockwaves that pierced Evolto's knees, causing him to fall back to his knees. Bai Ai Na grabbed his head, forcing his upper body back up, then raised her right fist, burning with azure flames. "Well, there's really nothing I can do. The one who will kill you won't be Katsuragi Takumi, but me..."

This time, nothing unexpected happened. The fist landed heavily.

Meanwhile, Katsuragi Takumi was taken away by Evolto, and the remaining Auto Scriptures, Artoria, Bedivere, and Mash continued their advance after dealing with the remaining enemies. They quickly began causing widespread destruction inside the battleship and reached the bridge.

Rungomminiad once again stood before the intruding squad, her entire body clad in silver-white lion armor. Looking at these suicidal outsiders, she frowned and said, "Why…?"

"Tiid! (Time)" Before Rungominiad could finish speaking, the Automatic Scripture immediately unleashed a time-based dragon roar, slowing down the flow of time.

But Rungomminiad had anticipated this. Suddenly, Bu Tianzhong, who had teleported instantly using the World Bridge system, appeared beside her. Holding the Hundred Insect Sword, he released special particles that counteracted the slowing of the flow of time.

This time, Bu Tianzhong had no intention of slacking off. He fought with all his might, bringing a full range of equipment. Relying on a large number of support robots, special items, and the assistance of the World Bridge system, he successfully held his own against the Automatic Secretary, and for a time they were evenly matched.

"Ha, your greatest savior is now overwhelmed with his own troubles." At this point, Rungomminiad had lost all interest in pursuing them. She coldly mocked, "Humanity has already abandoned this timeline, so what is your reason for continuing to fight?"

“Why do I need so many reasons?” Artoria gripped the Star Sword tightly, her gaze towards Rungomminiad unwavering. “I only know that if I back down here… I will regret it for the rest of my life.”

“As a king, this is not a proper reason; it is far too arrogant.” Seeing Bedivere’s hesitant expression, Rungomminiad said nothing more and left the bridge to return to his throne.

"Wait!" Bedivere tried to stop Rungomminiad and question her about her actions, but the two remaining members of the Triumvirate had already arrived.

"Hmm? This guy... we can't let him live!" Upon seeing Bedivere, Bai Choufei's killing intent surged, and he immediately tried to kill him.

Crystal-like, proliferating vines surged forth, layer upon layer of illusions linked together. The space above the bridge was filled with dark clouds, and bolts of lightning struck down relentlessly, attacking Artoria, Bedivere, and Mash within the arena.

Chapter Fifty-Eight: The First Light

The legend goes that the perfect knight Lancelot, for the sake of the lonely queen, killed the secretary who wanted to use and coerce her.

Knowing he was no longer the knight the king had hoped for, his infidelity with the queen unexpectedly proved it. This made the king aware of his downfall, the limits of human capability, and even gave him a twisted sense of relief at the thought of being punished as a disloyalist.

However, this did not happen. After learning all this, the king simply nodded quietly. He ordered the knight and queen to leave Camelot and Britain that very night.

The Round Table was in turmoil, a heroic rescue of the execution ground, and the ultimate showdown. In this timeline, none of this happened; the knight, with the queen in tow, departed into the distance, watched by the king.

All of this filled the knight with intense hatred. He had once asked himself if he could forgive a traitor if he were in the same position as the king.

No, that premise is wrong. The king is different from 'us' in the premise. He is neither a person nor was he raised as a person.

That was clearly the case, yet that great man wanted to claim himself as the righteous one. He didn't understand human happiness, yet he loved people's happiness. He was like a monster. A monster surpassing Vortigern.

The terror that now arises in your heart will eventually turn into anger and hatred, and you will continue to curse the king who can exist forever as an ideal.

Though it is a terrifying future, it is the inevitable retribution for a knight like me. Such a farewell is his deserved end.

……

The long night was upon them. The sun had not yet risen above the horizon. Lancelot heard news from Britain that an unprecedented rebellion had broken out.

The enemy that appeared in Britain was not a native alien race, nor an army that crossed from overseas, but an alien being who descended from the sky.

With just his first move, he slew Gawain, one of the strongest Knights of the Round Table. Even Lancelot wasn't entirely confident of defeating this Knight of the Sun, never expecting that his opponent would already be dead at the hands of the enemy…

No, this is for the best. This is the kind of ending a knight should have: to die on the battlefield, to fight for the people, to die for the glory of the king. If it were Gao Wenqing, he certainly wouldn't be dissatisfied with such an ending, would he?

And what about myself? Am I to remain here on French soil, hating the sins I have committed every day, until I die?

No, the sin of infidelity I committed was betrayal, and I have degenerated into a beast whose very existence makes it laughable for me to call myself a knight. Perhaps this is the best ending for me.

The once pristine white armor was now stained with black, as if to attest to the knight's maddened end; it could never be restored to its original purity. Responding to its master's mood, the Lakelight Sword, fallen from a holy sword to a demonic one, reflected its master's face; only the blade itself, reflecting light like lake water, remained unchanged.

Why... why... even though it has already fallen into the realm of demonic swords, it still possesses such radiance? Gazing at the demonic sword in his hand, Lancelot's heart was filled with resentment, disgust, and fear. He cursed the blade in his hand and let out a hysterical roar.

"—" An answer from who-knows-where reached Lancelot's mind, and under his astonished gaze, Aroundight returned to its original form.

All the memories flooded back, and Wang's reassuring smile appeared before her eyes. Yes, wasn't this exactly what she had been pursuing?

No matter when or where, only you and I will always be together.

……

From the very beginning, Artoria and her companions were at a disadvantage. Facing Bai Choufei and Obito Uchiha, they already had little advantage. Not to mention, their opponents had the World Bridge system and a large number of elite monsters assisting them, whose various bizarre abilities made them difficult to deal with. Almost from the start of the battle, they were in dire straits.

The strange men carrying heavy laser cannons quickly adjusted their devices, aiming the flashing muzzles at the three enemies.

Mashu, who was well-versed in science fiction, knew at a glance that the turret was no ordinary weapon. She forcefully pushed aside the enemy who was trying to grab the shield and hinder her movement.

"Mr. Bedivere!" Swinging her large cross-shaped shield, Mash struck the charging rhinoceros monster in the side, forcing it to turn in another direction. "Please come with Miss Artoria!"

"Lord Bedivere!" With a spear thrust piercing through an enemy falling from the sky, Artoria released the Wind King Barrier, and the violent airflow hammered all the surrounding enemies into a stunned state.

"Silver Arm!" With a swing of her prosthetic right arm, silver flashes erupted, and the splitting sword energy shredded all the Shocker minions that tried to block her path into a bloody pulp. Even the tough-skinned Jewel Monster, who tried to withstand the attack, was forced to retreat several steps. This bought Artoria and Bedivere time to break through and reach Mash's side.

Inserting the Prism Memory into the turret's groove, a dazzling rainbow light erupted, a strike no less powerful than an A-rank anti-military Noble Phantasm, directly blasting towards the three people standing together.

"Imaginary Noble Phantasm: Foundation of Humanity (Lord Chaldeas)!" A giant cross shield formed by converging light unfolds, a pseudo-Noble Phantasm inspired by the instincts and deepest desires of the Demi-Servant.

The protection forged by faith is not so easily broken. Moreover, Mash is no longer the novice Demi-Servant she once was. She has withstood attacks from the Star Sword, the Sword of War, and Fafnir's Breath. How could she fall here because of such an attack?

"Break the Evil!" Completely devoid of any masterly demeanor, the first ultimate technique of the Three Finger Heaven-Pulling Technique reappeared in the world. A red stream of Qi rushed out and directly bombarded the pseudo-Noble Phantasm, which had been weakened after resisting the Prism Cannon.

"Ugh! Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!" Knowing she absolutely couldn't back down here, a surge of power from who knows where made Mashu straighten her back and tilt her shield with all her might, causing Bai Choufei's attack to be deflected to the side.

"Asura Overlord Fist!" This time, there was no room for trickery. Obito's merciless punch exploded against Mash's shield, sending her flying. Facing Artoria's attempt to attack and Bedivere's attempt to rescue Mash, he thrust out his hands and roared, "Shinra Tensei!"

The violent repulsive force spread, and the three of them were immediately pushed in different directions.

Chapter 59 The Strongest Knights x2, here we come!

Although Artoria does not possess a skill called "Military Strategy," she can determine faster than Bedivere that the three should form a triangular formation in this situation to avoid being disrupted and thus split up and killed.

But Obito and Hakuchou were well aware of this. Therefore, they tried to break up the triangular formation from the very beginning.

"Don't even think about it!" Bedivere unleashed his Imaginary Noble Phantasm without a word. His right hand transformed into a blazing golden light, his raised arm merging with that of the Celtic war god Nuada. "Devour my soul, surge forth, Silver Meteor! Fleeting in a flash, Silver Arm!!"

The bridge, stretching for several kilometers, was instantly cleaved in two. Bedivere, falling from the sky, slashed down with his hand, and a dazzling torrent of light directly struck Bai Choufei.

"He's using a silver arm, yet it's emitting golden light—how ridiculous!" Bai Choufei showed no fear whatsoever. Instead, he charged directly into the torrent of light, stubbornly striving towards the source of the Noble Phantasm's release, right in front of Bedivere, who was currently utterly shocked. "Giving you a single Shattering Strike was too lenient! Die, Jingzhe!"

The sharp finger strike sent Bedivere flying, causing him to nearly collapse to his knees in pain. But before he could recover, Bai Choufei attacked again, unleashing a heavy Thunder Fist. The lightning-powered punch, even more powerful than the Thunder Fist, was too much for the knight, who was not known for his martial prowess, to handle, and he was immediately at a crushing disadvantage.

"Lord Bedivere!" Obito immediately tried to rush to his companion's side, but Artoria followed closely behind. The proliferating and emerging crystal vines made the Red Dragon King, who possessed superb magic resistance, drowsy, and she almost fell asleep on the ground.

"Planetary Devastation!" Seizing the opportunity, Obito clasped his hands together, and a jet-black sphere instantly formed between them. He then pushed it into the air, and an exaggerated suction force began to form, attracting Artoria, some weaker monsters, fragments of the damaged bridge from the battle, and diamond-like debris from the ship's armor to the sphere's perimeter, creating a giant sphere that hovered in mid-air.

"Miss Artoria!" Despite her extreme anxiety, Mash was powerless to act. At this point, she hadn't yet grown to the point where she could defeat the Demon Pillar with a shield bash. Faced with the siege of numerous monsters, she could only passively remain on the defensive.

"Great Fire Annihilation!" After dealing with Artoria, Obito turned around and unleashed a high-intensity Fire Release attack on Mash. The scorching heat heated the air into a scorching gas that would kill if inhaled, creating an attack that felt like boiling a frog in hot water.

In contrast, the monsters around Mashu were instantly burned to ashes, but this seemingly powerful attack still couldn't cause much damage to the ship itself.

Before Mashu could catch her breath, Obito launched a powerful attack, easily unleashing a whirlwind enhanced by the fan on his back.

Even though she was facing only one enemy, Mashu found herself in an even worse situation than before. Unlike monsters with single abilities, Obito was a versatile individual with multiple powers. Apart from the Silver Fruit, which was ineffective against women with romantic feelings, the power of his Rinnegan and Mangekyou Sharingan was enough to defeat her.

"Ugh!" Because she couldn't breathe, her magic circulation became sluggish, causing an abnormal situation in Mash's magic flow.

"Susanoo!" A giant blue tengu appeared, and Obito Uchiha, who was controlling Susanoo, had no sympathy for the girl before him. Under his control, a large number of fine lightning bolts appeared on the tengu samurai's right hand, and the already S-rank ninjutsu, Lightning Blade, exploded with unprecedented power in the hands of Susanoo.
