In Britain, the Noble Phantasm: Divine Key

However, at that moment, a mournful dragon roar suddenly came from above, and Yanan's heart tightened, and he instantly looked up at the sky.

It turned out that Nidhogg and the Sky Garden were too big targets, and unlike Mordred and Anan, they did not have the ability to give advance warning. So when they were suddenly bombarded by so many beams of light, they had no time to react and dodge. They were instantly pierced by countless beams of light!

After a brief resistance, the magnificent Sky Garden exploded with a deafening roar. Although Nidhogg possessed a life force that could be described as "immortal," he was powerless against the sudden attack of so many beams of light and fell from the sky with numerous fatal wounds, crashing to the ground with a loud thud.

"Nid!!"

Anan quickly used the power of the Thousand Worlds One Vehicle to come to Nidhogg's side, continuously injecting the [Creation] power of the Black Abyss White Flower into the latter's body. However, since this was only a replica of the Divine Key, this amount of [Creation] power was not enough to help Nidhogg escape danger.

"I'm sorry, it seems I can't be with you until the end this time..."

Nidhogg weakly opened his eyes, looking at Anan with longing and reluctance, his massive body gradually dissipating into spiritual light.

Amakusa Shiro Tokisada, who was running wildly, suddenly stopped, stiffly lowered his head, and saw that the Command Seal in his hand was gradually dissipating.

At the same time, that incredibly familiar feeling was gradually slipping away from him.

"Assassin......."

He stood silently in the dark forest like a statue. After an unknown amount of time, a powerful surge of magical energy suddenly erupted from his body, sending countless gusts of wind scattering and snapping the surrounding trees at their roots.

As the magical fluctuations gradually subsided, Amakusa Shiro Tokisada's attire had completely changed. His simple and plain priest's robes had transformed into the wide-sleeved robes of an ancient swordsman, and his disheveled white hair had been tied up with a red ribbon.

If any other magicians were here, their expressions would definitely change drastically, because the aura emanating from Amakusa Shiro Tokisada at this moment is completely that of a Servant!

Having completely liberated his spirit origin, Amakusa Shiro Tokisada no longer possessed the gentle and loving demeanor of a priest. Although his appearance remained unchanged, he now gave off the feeling of a swordsman who had stepped out of the Edo period, exuding a desolate and sharp aura like the autumn wind!

"Don't worry, Assassin, I'll avenge you soon..."

Chapter Fifty: When foes meet on a narrow path, the brave shall prevail!

"Now you finally understand the consequences of going against the gods..." Gamo's bright face showed obvious pleasure as she watched the Sky Garden shatter like fireworks and Nidhogg dissipate into spiritual light. The anger that Anan had provoked earlier was also released to some extent. She looked at Anan, who had his back to her, with a playful gaze.

"Oh, right, I suddenly remembered, your relationship with that black dragon seems quite special. Watching your loved one die before your eyes must have been awful. But it's alright, I'll be there soon..."

Before she could finish speaking, Kama suddenly felt a strange magical fluctuation coming from in front of her. A spatial rift, resembling a black vertical pupil, suddenly appeared in front of her. Anan, who had been a hundred meters away just moments before, emerged from the rift, holding a greatsword burning with crimson flames. His eyes, as deep as an abyss, revealed a cold and indifferent killing intent.

As if intimidated by Anan's imposing presence, Kama instinctively took a step back, but she quickly realized her mistake and felt ashamed and annoyed at her earlier action.

"Stop pretending!"

She raised her arm, which looked like it was made of dark red crystals, and that seemingly slender arm firmly grasped the blade of the greatsword, immobilizing it like an iron clamp.

"Hmph, are you angry? Too bad, anger won't bring you power before the might of the gods." Kama looked at Anan with a mocking expression. She had already made up her mind. This sharp-tongued fellow was the one she would never let die easily. She would make him forever sink into [fallen love] until he became her slave!

Anan still stared at Kama with cold eyes, as if he were looking at a corpse.

An unusual fluctuation pulled Kama back from her reverie. She suddenly sensed something was wrong, and her gaze shifted slightly downwards as she saw the greatsword, which was burning with flames, suddenly glow with a molten gold-like light.

boom!

The raging flames, as if they had been accumulating for a long time, were released in an instant. The indescribable high temperature caused the surrounding space to distort extremely. At such close range, Kama had no time to dodge and was instantly engulfed by the oncoming flames. His terrified screams echoed through the sky.

"what!!!"

This was a long-planned attack by Yanan. Having experienced so many battles, he certainly wouldn't make a big mistake on such a life-or-death battlefield due to his mentality. Moreover, he also knew very well that Nidhogg wasn't really dead; she had simply returned to her original world.

He was just trying to set a trap for Kama, but the latter fell into the trap faster than he had imagined!

This was the first time in all these years that he had seen someone dare to catch heavenly fire with their bare hands. Based on this alone, he was willing to call this god of love the strongest.

That head is really stubborn...

The raging flames covered Kama's entire body, and the intense pain caused his beautiful face to contort in agony. Although the Heavenly Fire Greatsword was not yet fully unleashed, the power of the flames was still not to be underestimated. Even Karna, the son of the sun god with strong fire resistance, might not be able to withstand the burning of these flames.

"Can you win?" Mordred's inherited holy blue eyes were fixed on Kama, who was struggling in the flames, and her hand gripping the sword hilt tightly revealed her urgency and tension.

That previous attack was the strongest she could unleash, and she might never have the chance to unleash such a powerful attack again, but even so, it still couldn't have any effect on the [beast].

Now, the only hope to turn the tide of the battle rests on Yanan.

The magician and the android watching from the distant hillside shared the same thought: the key to saving the world now rested entirely on this King Arthur from another world.

More than ten minutes later, the flames gradually died down, and Kama's figure slowly appeared in front of everyone. A few wisps of white smoke rose from her body after the flames had burned. Of the two demonic horns on her head, one had vanished into thin air, leaving only the other hanging awkwardly beside her head. Her thick, jet-black hair, which resembled vines, had also disappeared in large part, making her look strangely comical.

However, none of these were the key points. At first glance, almost everyone's attention was focused on Kama's right hand. There were no traces of crystallization left on that arm; all that remained was a charred black patch, drooping softly on his shoulder like a withered branch.

Compared to the loss in appearance, the crippled arm was the biggest gain from Yanan's attack. He could clearly feel that Kama's aura had been significantly weakened. It was obvious that even for a [beast], losing an arm was a considerable blow.

If Kama hadn't been so resolute as to bravely withstand the Heavenly Fire Sword, he might not have paid such a terrible price.

“This look suits you quite well now,” Yanan said with a mocking smile. “At least it’s more pleasing to the eye than before.”

Kama glared at Anan like a man-eating tigress, his eyes blazing with fury, as if he wanted to devour him alive.

Anan, too lazy to waste any more words, raised the Heavenly Fire Greatsword once more and lunged forward, giving Kama no chance to recover.

Realizing the terrifying power of that greatsword, Kama dared not take it head-on, especially given her severe injuries. So, despite her resentment and anger, she could only retreat and temporarily avoid its sharp edge.

"Trying to run? Not so easy!"

A glint flashed in Yanan's eyes, and twelve golden spears, trailing chains, swept out from behind him, charging towards Kama like dragons.

"Don't go too far!" Kama was both shocked and furious. Back in Sighshwara, he had already noticed the strangeness of these spears through the Black Assassin's experience. Although her magic reserves were much higher than those of a normal Servant, it didn't mean that she could ignore these chains!

She raised her hand again, and a dozen whips of light condensed from the void, entangled the golden chains together, and collided with a fierce sound.

However, before Kamo could even breathe a sigh of relief, Anan had another small, dark blue ball in his hand.

"Come here!"

Gravity shifted, space collapsed, and a small black hole formed near the deep blue sphere. A terrifying suction force emanated from it, like a powerful arm gripping Kama tightly, causing her speed to drop instantly.

"Damn it!" A glint of madness flashed in Kama's eyes. "You forced me to do this!"

On her other, undamaged arm, a few dark red flames rose faintly. Although they looked inconspicuous, anyone could clearly feel the terrifying power contained within them.

This is a power capable of destroying even the universe.

Clearly, under Anan’s relentless pursuit, Kama had completely disregarded his pride and intended to reactivate Shiva’s power.

However, Yanan had anticipated this.

Although Kama claims to be a god, she is even more emotional than humans. Expecting her to completely abide by the contract with such an opponent is unrealistic.

Therefore, he had already made preparations.

Just as Kama was about to burn this annoying fellow to ashes with Shiva's fire, a crimson feather suddenly fell from the sky and came into her view.

Kama's gaze froze instantly. She seemed to have forgotten who she was, where she was, and what she was supposed to do next. She wanted to stand there like a piece of wood.

The Shiva fire, which had been poised to ignite, gradually died down and quietly coiled around Kama's arm.

Due to the difference in their rank, Feather Dust's power could hardly have much of an effect on Kama. However, for Anan, this amount of time was more than enough. He increased the power of the Star of Eden while using runes to accelerate his speed, quickly closing the distance between himself and Kama.

A mere second later, Kama broke free from the illusion created by Feather Dust. Looking at Anan, who was holding a greatsword and was close at hand, she was naturally filled with shock and anger. However, at this distance, she could not find enough space to create distance, and her only choice was to fight with her back against the wall!

"go to hell!"

Kama raised his only remaining arm, and flames containing terrifying destructive power rose up once more, piercing straight towards Anan's heart like a sharp knife!

In a close encounter, the brave prevail; in such a situation, whoever retreats is doomed!

Anan stared intently at Kama, his eyes unwavering and his body steadfast. He held the blazing Heavenly Fire Greatsword high in his hand and brought it down on Kama's head with an aura of earth-shattering power!

At the critical moment, Kama's few remaining thick hairs, like vines, suddenly moved without wind, lashing the Heavenly Fire Greatsword like whips. Although the hairs were burned to ashes the instant they made contact, the heavy force still changed the trajectory of the greatsword!

brush!

The dark demonic horn was instantly severed, and eerie black energy emanated from the broken edge. Kama's aura weakened considerably, but a sinister smile appeared on her face.

"Bye now!"

The arm covered in dark red flames thrust forward, and an aura of destruction surged forth. Anan could even feel the tremor emanating from the depths of his soul.

This is the power that symbolizes the end of all things.

However, at that moment, Yanan caught a glimpse of light out of the corner of his eye.

Roar! ! !

In the silent world, a mighty dragon roar resounded, and a flash of light approached from afar, tearing through the air with a piercing whistling sound, and accurately nailed to Kama's palm!

It was an ordinary arrow, yet it unleashed a power comparable to a missile.

Anan turned his head slightly, and on the vast earth, the black giant stood like an iron tower.

Chapter Fifty-One: The Fallen God of Love

The black giant stood on the vast earth, draped in a simple lion skin, holding a rough obsidian longbow in his hand. His powerful muscles bulged like rocks, and he exuded a heavy and oppressive aura, like a primordial beast that had emerged from the ancient earth.

Hercules...

No one expected that this great hero from ancient Greece would step forward at such a critical moment and unleash such a fierce attack. His eyes were like lightning, his aura was steady, and his condition was even better than that of Bianan. There was no trace of the dying state he had shown before.

Even the most advanced healing magic could not possibly restore a severely injured demigod from the brink of death to his current perfect state in such a short time. The only thing that could do this is a miracle!

The crimson Command Seals gradually faded, leaving only faint traces on the back of her hand. Fiore clenched her fists tightly, raised her head, and gazed at the imposing black giant in the distance with her light green eyes.

The rest is up to you, Archer...

Anan stepped back a short distance, using magic to compress his voice into a single line, which clearly reached Hercules' ears.

How are you doing right now?

Hercules' eyes flickered slightly, and after a moment of silence, he calmly said:

"He's in good condition, but the twelve trials are gone."

In his previous battle against Red Rider Ozymandias, he had already used up all twelve of his resurrection opportunities. Such an abnormal Noble Phantasm cannot be restored with just a few Command Seals.

Moreover, most of the power of those Command Seals was used to heal him, and the rest was used to replenish his magic and repair the Obsidian Longbow.

Ananon's furrowed brows gradually relaxed. He was more satisfied with Hercules's reply than he had expected. Although he had lost the chance to be resurrected, at least his own combat strength was not lost.

He was terrified that Hercules would say, "That arrow was my last ripple"...

"Ah..."

Kama knelt on the ground, surrounded by wisps of black energy. Looking at her pierced hand, her beautiful face twisted like a demon, her eyes flashing with anger, resentment, hatred, and other emotions.

His hands were crippled, his horns were severed, and he was left with less than half of his former strength...

This was a situation she never expected. She had tried everything, exhausted all her efforts, but why, why did it turn out this way?!
