Chapter 279 Gathering

"Damn it—" Martha took two steps back, her face growing increasingly grim as she watched Alucard approach the Holy Grail.

really.

Even she couldn't do anything about Alucard.

but--

This was said without taking into account her class-specific abilities.

"Stop! You are not the victor yet, and you cannot approach the Holy Grail, or I will use a Command Seal!"

“Oh? Command Spells?” Alucard laughed. “Then let’s give it a try! Command Spells? Hmph… Command Spells, come on, try it out, see what effect your Command Spells can have!”

Watching Alucard approach step by step, Martha took a deep breath: "Fine! This is the first time I've heard such a request. Since you want me to use a Command Spell? Very well—I, Saint Martha, in the name of Ruler, command you, Alucard..."

"What's wrong? Why did you stop?" Alucard laughed. "Keep going, maybe you can kill me with that Command Seal!"

"By the name of the Command Spell, I command you! Stand right there and do not move!"

"Varied--"

Accardo's legs suddenly froze in place, unable to move... no, not completely unable to move, but rather his movements became extremely slow, as if bound by something.

"You bastard—"

Accardo's expression was somewhat unpleasant.

“Hmph! Don’t think I’m easy to fool—” Martha said, looking at Accardo, “You probably think I’d order you to release the River of Dead or commit suicide, right?”

"But...who knows if a single Command Spell will be enough to command you to release the River of the Dead! As for making you commit suicide...even if you really ripped out your own heart and smashed your own brain, you wouldn't die, right? So just stand there and don't move!"

"Give me the second command spell: Stand still and do not move!!"

Martha used up both Command Seals in one go, and in an instant—she felt extremely comfortable.

My mood instantly improved.

"That's right, that's right, is that it? Humph! Someone like you shouldn't be wandering around all the time, you should just stay where you are!"

"Hmph...hmph...hahahahahahahahahaha————"

"What are you doing? What are you laughing at?" Akadomarda said, clearly displeased with his laughter.

“No…it’s just funny.” Alucard watched Martha’s hair fly in the wind and turn into darkness. “You just told me not to move, but—some things can’t be done by moving! You should have ordered me not to get near the Holy Grail!”

"!!!" Martha's smile froze on her face...

In a fit of anger... she hadn't expected this.

"Besides, how long can a Command Seal like this bind me? One minute? Five minutes? Or ten minutes? What can you do in such a short time? You can't do anything! When the time is up, you still can't do anything to me. At that time, the Holy Grail will still fall into my hands!"

"Stop being so long-winded! We'll talk about that when the time comes; for now—"

"No, that's not right!"

Just then, a voice from afar interrupted Martha's words, and both Accardo and Martha quickly turned around.

I saw the pyramids flying towards me from a distance.

It seemed to radiate light in the darkness, just like the sun on earth!

"The Red Team Rider's Noble Phantasm?" Martha was slightly taken aback. "He's coming at this time..."

"Hmph... Your goal is the same as mine, the Holy Grail, isn't it?"

"That's right! That Holy Grail belongs to me, and it is destined to be mine!"

boom----!!

The pyramid arrived before Martha, Alucard, and the Holy Grail, crushing the ruins below and falling to the ground.

"I am Pharaoh! King of Kings! Is there any place in this world more suitable to place the Holy Grail in my hands? No!"

As they spoke, several Sphinxes emerged from the pyramid that had fallen to the ground and walked toward the location of the Great Holy Grail.

The goal is nothing other than to transport the Great Grail to that temple!

"Ugh... one or two at a time!!" Martha said in dissatisfaction, "Servant, Rider! I command you in the name of the Command Spell—neither you nor your subordinates are allowed to touch the Holy Grail until all the other Servants have been defeated!"

The Sphinx paused for a moment.

However, it only paused for a moment—

The next moment, the Sphinxes resumed their movements.

"Huh? Why?" Martha was taken aback. The Command Spell didn't work?

"Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha! Useless! Incompetent! Lacking strategy! Utterly worthless! I am the God-King! You don't actually think I can't even withstand a Command Seal of this level, do you? If you want to forcibly command me, prepare ten Command Seals first! Two mere Command Seals are simply not enough!"

Osmandis was laughing loudly inside the pyramid.

Command Spells are useless against him inside the pyramid.

Of course, this is all thanks to the ability of that person named DIO! As long as he's inside this pyramid, inside this [Radiant Composite Temple], he can use magic to create the [reality] he desires—

He currently has several magicians in the Mage's Association responsible for supplying him with magic power, so it can be said that small-scale alterations to "reality" are entirely feasible!

As for larger-scale changes in reality...

The magic provided by the magicians alone is far from enough; it's far from sufficient!

In any case, magic is only "sufficient" rather than "infinite".

They're only capable of waging a Holy Grail War!

Boom boom boom boom—

next moment.

A treasure fell from the sky—

In an instant, a rain of countless Noble Phantasms completely annihilated the Sphinxes standing before the Greater Grail.

"Hahahaha—you ignorant bastard! Who gave you the audacity to touch my treasure?"

"Haha! What are you talking about? The golden one? That Holy Grail is clearly mine!" Osmandis said displeasedly, looking at Gilgamesh who had appeared in the sky at some unknown time. "Is there anyone in this world besides me who is worthy of this Holy Grail? No! No one! This Holy Grail is most suitable for me to obtain, and only suitable for me to obtain! Even you, trying to stop me is far too arrogant!"

"Wrong! The sun's! That belongs to me!" Gilgamesh stretched out his hand and said, "All the treasures in heaven and earth belong to me, Gilgamesh! How dare a mere bastard touch my treasures? Who gave you the audacity! Are you prepared to die—?"

Chapter 280 Collision

"Looks like we don't need to lift a finger." Arash and Enkidu were both nearby.

Actually, they arrived shortly after Accardo, but they didn't have time to make a move.

Because it looks like Alucard is being held back by that saintess!

“No,” Enkidu said, walking forward.

"Are we going to make our move?" Arash asked with a smile.

“Yes.” Enkidu nodded. “I’ve had a great time getting to know you all, but this should be the end. Goodbye.”

"Well, it won't be long before I make my move. This time I'll probably use my [Ace]." Arash smiled happily, completely unconcerned about being eliminated after using his Noble Phantasm.

He had no expectations of the Holy Grail.

It's astonishing that someone like him would respond to the Holy Grail's call; in fact, he's still very curious about why he did respond back then.

Enkidu walked step by step toward the center of the battlefield, toward the location of the Holy Grail.

Now, it can be described as a three-way standoff.

The Pyramid of Osmandis.

Gilgamesh in the sky.

Acado, surrounded by crimson light.

A standoff between the three parties.

Sandwiched in the middle are Saint Martha and... the Holy Grail.

Enkidu is undoubtedly the one who will break the current deadlock.

There's something he hasn't told anyone yet, but even if he hasn't said it, people probably already know it: it's about Gilgamesh.

The so-called Holy Grail.

The skill of fulfilling wishes.

Enkidu also exists.

He could grant people's wishes as long as he had enough magic, but he never said this. He never said it to his Master or anyone else.

Gilgamesh knew only because he had known it for a long time. That's all.

It's that simple.

None of the many magicians vying for the Holy Grail had ever considered this, nor had Enkidu's Master, who had his sights set on the Holy Grail.

What they crave.

They've always been right beside them.

......

"Hmph—hahahahaha—"

Accardo suddenly laughed—

Looking at the situation before him, he suddenly burst into laughter—and the next moment, he ripped out his own heart!

They crushed my heart completely!

He hates suicide!

Even his feelings towards those who commit suicide are nothing more than disgust.

So he wouldn't commit suicide; he would only hope that someone would send him to his grave. But—he's immortal, so he can still do such things occasionally.
