The Holy Grail War of God's Blessing

Valkyrie received the order, left the battlefield without any objection, and walked to the wall of the hall.

"Alas, it seems that polite words from strangers have no effect."

Manshu could only shake his head and said regretfully.

After receiving permission, Ophelia opened her mouth but did not speak first. Instead, she seemed to organize her words before officially speaking:

"Mashu Kyrielight. It's been a long time since we've had a face-to-face conversation like this, right? Ah, it should be about two years."

"Well, it's been a while, Miss Ophelia. I've always wanted to talk to you. About Chaldea after that, about the journey to restore humanity, about myself before and until now, and about the name of the Hidden One.

Looking back, I never talked to anyone before. I only expressed my opinions according to the situation and never expressed my feelings. But now it is different. I have been taught by many people in many places about the meaning, reason, and purpose of my existence, the concept of good and evil, and what human nature should be like.

When we were in Chaldea, even though we were in the same team, I never tried to understand everyone in Group A. That’s why I wanted to understand everyone. I wanted to find out what the time I spent with everyone in the year after Group A was formed was about.”

Mashu also had a lot to say to Ophelia. Listening to what Mashu said, Ophelia couldn't help but smile.

Although no one knew about it except Sigurd and Ophelia, Ophelia sent Sigurd to carry out the mission of taking away the Plane Moon with the prerequisite that Mashu could not be killed.

Otherwise, Mashu, who was trying to stop Sigurd alone, would obviously stop Sigurd's progress at all costs. The swinging magic sword defeated all of Mashu's strength in just a few strokes, so how could it not take her life?

"Really? That's gratifying. You're always so sincere about survival. But no, Mashu, your journey ends here."

Ophelia didn't want to take Mashu's life, but that didn't mean she would allow them to move forward. If that wasn't the case, she wouldn't have given the order to take the Flat Moon.

“You have seen many things I don’t know and traveled to a world I don’t know. I really want to hear you talk about it. I really want to talk to you for a while longer.

I've been thinking this since I first met you in Chaldea. It's true. If I were to talk to you now, I might be able to have a more enjoyable conversation than I did then...

However, I will neither change nor can I change. I have the dignity of being a hidden person in my heart. I will not let you pass, nor can I let you pass."

Ophelia finally put away the smile on her face and said resolutely.

This was enough for Matthew, who was standing opposite, to confirm that what Ophelia said was not false, but came from the heart, and was decisive.

Mashu had removed the exoskeleton from her eyes, and her expression was a little gloomy, but she still pulled herself together and asked Ophelia, "Are you willing to turn the planet into a blank sheet of paper?"

"If I answer yes, then this is the hidden one, and this is me who obeys Master Kirshtalia Vaudem."

As Ophelia spoke, she couldn't help but smile, as if it was difficult for her to be tough with Mash.

"It's incredible, Mashu. You were supposed to be with us, but you became a pseudo-servant and are facing me as an enemy. Is this irony? Or is this fate?"

"I have no intention of being your enemy. I am willing to talk to you, but you...don't think so, Miss Ophelia."

"Me? Yes, I—"

Although Ophelia was a little hesitant, she did make a decision. She had already pledged her loyalty to Kirshtalia and had made up her mind.

But Napoleon interrupted their conversation with a shocking remark, saying that Ophelia was his fiancée.

But in fact, Ophelia had only met Napoleon twice, and Napoleon's reason was that he proposed to Ophelia but did not get a rejection, so that meant she agreed.

But obviously, Ophelia was just shocked into silence by Napoleon's actions, and she couldn't even think of any words to respond for a while.

After Napoleon's unreasonable demands, Ophelia decided to end this conversation which had become somewhat inexplicable.

"I don't like jokes and farces. The heroic spirits of Humanity are nothing more than our enemies. Your Majesty, please allow me to stain the city with blood."

However, if you want to kill someone here, you obviously still need to ask the owner for permission. After all, the goddess who speaks of love would probably not be happy to see this.

And the result was indeed as expected. Skadi used the magic wand in her hand to express her denial:

"No, what are you talking about, Ophelia? Killing a life I acknowledge is a serious crime. Even though you are my daughter who nurtured the Illusionary Tree, I cannot agree to your request. Capture them alive without harming their lives, Ophelia."

"As you command, Queen."

Although there are some differences, at least he has gained the power to use force in front of others.

Besides, Ophelia really didn't have any intention of killing anyone. At most, she just wanted to kill Napoleon.

Ophelia immediately turned around and gave an order to her Servant Sigurd:

"You heard me? Make them powerless and don't kill them. Even if something unexpected happens, you can't kill Mash Kyrielight."

“I see. Although I am not good at this kind of dexterous operation, this is your order. Just don’t kill the shield soldier woman… right?”

Sigurd drew the magic sword from his waist and prepared to carry out the master's order.

"Do as I say."⑺

Ophelia just emphasized that Sigurd should not do whatever he wants.

"There's nothing I can do. You're such a willful child, Ophelia. Oh, my."⑹

Seeing that Ophelia had made up her mind, Skadi stopped trying to persuade her. Even though they were all children she loved and recognized, there would still be a little difference between them.

At this time, all you can do is close your eyes and accept the fight between your children. Anyway, as long as no one is killed, it won't have much of an impact.

"Haha, I'll solve it immediately."

Sigurd said bluntly that apart from Manshu, he probably wouldn't take anyone else seriously.

Of course, he probably didn't take Manshu seriously for the time being. To him, they were probably just humans whose names he couldn't remember.

"My magic perception is clearly blocked, but the magic is so strong. And, this feeling is..."

"Like murderous intent or something like that..."

The dangerous feeling of oppression enveloped everyone's senses like a sponge the moment Sigurd took a step forward.

That might be what is called murderous intent, which can make people sense danger very clearly and make all the cells in the body scream.

"The output of the spiritual exoskeleton is stable. I won't make the same mistake again this time! Senior, I can fight at any time!"

"This development... is caused by me! Sorry, but since we have to fight, I will not let the boy and girl die in front of me! The favorability that has been lowered by a word must be regained with action! I am a man who will respond to all expectations!"

"How come we have come to this stage? It seems that too many trivial matters have been inserted in the middle. The conversation between the two girls is at least pleasing to the ears, but the subsequent things are too unbearable."

Manshu grabbed the trident in his hand and walked straight forward. The two people beside him could not be relied upon, but they obviously could not be relied upon in frontal combat. They could only provide some help.

⑧ “Let’s continue the fight from last time, Sigurd. This time there won’t be any boring troublemakers to ruin this battle. Let the ruler of this Nordic Lostbelt be a witness. I will seize victory and dedicate it to the gods!”

Wu Manshu said loudly, and began the sacrificial ceremony as if he was throwing the spear in his hand into the sky.

⑦ Although he has not yet won the victory, it is obvious that he can use the victory as a sacrifice in advance to gain help to win the victory.

The witness here is Scathach Skadi, so the object of the ceremony is naturally the Norse gods.

⒍The divine power bestowed during the ceremony strengthened Manshu's body, allowing his flesh to reach a higher level and all his attributes to be raised by another rank.

3 This time, he swung the trident in his hand, and it collided with Sigurd's magic sword, but it was not easily shaken like before.

The strange power possessed by Sigurd was still somewhat unbelievable. Even at this level, Mansu was still at a disadvantage.

4. This is obviously not a normal state. This is definitely not a power that a regular servant can possess.

After all, the opponent is not just a servant with super strength, but also possesses excellent skills and is one of the greatest Nordic heroes known as the King of Warriors.

Among the countless legends sung in Northern Europe, there are probably not many heroes who can truly be considered to be stronger than Sigurd.

In addition to Valders and Hodr, who are considered to be the same origin as Balder and Hodr and are equivalent to the human incarnations of gods, most of them are heroes compiled by later generations and combine the deeds of multiple people with the same name, such as Svipdag, Halfdan, and Hardin.

The strength of his opponent is definitely not something a normal hero could possess. Even monsters, even those known for their strength, would probably find it difficult to stand up to him.

This is indeed the case. The other party possesses a strange power that cannot be fully contained by the spiritual base framework and manifests itself in the form of a bug.

In terms of skills, Manshu obviously cannot beat these people. He has gone through countless hardships. Some of them even have skills that can reach the level of heroes in the divine realm when they are still underage.

However, Manshu could also feel that Sigurd had not fully exerted his strength, as if he was restrained and had not fully exerted his strength.

In the rear, Mashu can always provide support. Although Napoleon is a bit abstract, his artillery fire and his own skills can also provide effects.

This time, Fujimaru Ritsuka did not summon a servant for battle, but chose Caster instead.

The Shadow of the Spirit summoned Helena, who immediately used her magic synchronization skill to coordinate her own magic with that of Manshu to amplify Manshu, and at the same time used the Great Soul to use the countless magic bases she had recorded to strengthen Manshu.

Therefore, although the strength is still a little insufficient, but in the overall situation, Gerudo is at a disadvantage.

The swinging trident actually forced Sigurd back, forcing him to be on the defensive for a moment.

"It seems that you have reached a higher level than before. Haha, that's good. It would be too boring if it weren't so."

But even though he was at a disadvantage, Sigurd laughed.

"Ophelia, remove a restriction."

"Okay, I admit it. The restrictions on the forced return of the spirit base are lifted. Defeat all enemies that stand in our way, my knight."

Ophelia also nodded. The situation before her was obvious and she had to respond.

"Restrictions lifted. In the second stage, the Demon Sword Gram will be used in earnest by the Heroic Spirit Sigurd."

Sigurd's appearance changed immediately. That was the effect of the return of the spirit base. The number of armor and small swords tied to his body increased, and the pressure he brought also increased sharply.

"Well, who should I kill first? I'll start with you, Archer. You're such a loudmouthed adulterer."

Sigurd's hatred was mainly directed towards Napoleon, mainly because Napoleon considered himself his fiancé.

In this lossbelt, Ophelia is extremely popular, although this may seem a little abstract.

"I sensed that the magic power was further increasing. Even though it was not being touched, the exoskeleton was creaking."

Sigurd's enormous magic power is even close to being materialized, and can oppress a person's body from a distance.

"But...but, it works, Senior! The spirit-based exoskeleton can maintain a high output by automatically adjusting its function!"

Mashu still insisted on throwing himself into the battle. Ophelia looked at Mashu's attitude with joy. As a sign of respect, she took off the eyepatch covering her right eye.

"Ah, so that's how it is. You have this kind of look now, Mash Kyrielight. It feels very dazzling, and, very beautiful."

"Ms. Ophelia, I don't understand what the Hidden One is, but even if I do, I can't retreat, no matter how powerful the Lostbelt Servant you command is. Because we know those who, despite being weak, still firmly shout that they don't want to lose, and who have powerful opponents...!"

"Really? You really are stronger than before. You're so strong that it surprises me. - I'm sorry, Mashu."

Ophelia shows off her magic eye under her eyepatch, which is a red eye, unlike her exposed blue left eye.

It is a gem-level Mystic Eye called the Mystic Eye of Procrastination, which can observe possibilities and can be classified as future vision.

It is possible to fix a fact that has been observed once, and its actual effect is probably to delay the possibility of something bad happening.

Chapter 34: Gods

Ophelia showed her magic eyes and immediately used them on Mashu.

"The sight is fixed. This armor is impressive. I won't see its glittering appearance."

Ophelia said the spell to use her magic eye, and the power of the magic eye took effect on Mashu.

Although Mashu was well prepared, she was still unable to resist this highest level of Mystic Eyes.

Mashu had just put all her effort into this battle and adjusted her spirit-based exoskeleton to its highest output state, but was directly beaten back.

The output of all parts of the spirit-based exoskeleton was rapidly decreasing. Even though the automatic adjustment skill was still working, this unreasonable situation still occurred.

"Is this a limitation? ... things are turning around..."

"My magic eye is of the rank of a gem. I will not look at the shining forms of things that I have decided not to see, and those things cannot shine before my eyes.

I've shown you that I can do this if I want to. Excuse me, but please just stand there still."

Ophelia didn't want to continue to watch Mashu devote all his energy to the task.

It is indeed a shining posture, but it is also inevitable that people will feel soft-hearted and unable to bear to stop the figure who has already paid so much and is moving forward resolutely.

Therefore, Ophelia could only apologize and use the magic eye to restore Mashu's state to its previous state.

Therefore, although the automatic adjustment mechanism of Mashu's exoskeleton is still operating, her own state is limited to the state before it started operating and cannot be changed.

"Time manipulation that limits the target... No, this is already the realm of Magic Search! Even the Magic Eye cannot achieve a technology that goes beyond the scope of magic. There should... There should be some flaw!"

Obviously, there is no member here who is capable of analyzing magic. Even if they understand that there must be a way to crack Ophelia's magic eye, it is impossible to find it at the moment.

However, this did not affect the situation on the scene. It was a good thing that Ophelia kept her eyes on Mashu, so as not to interfere with the close-range fight on the other side.

"No, no, your Gram, you haven't even fully exerted your strength yet. Sigurd! Use all your strength! Or do you intend to sacrifice yourself to God first?!"

When Sigurd released himself from his restraints just now, Manshu knew that his feelings were not false at all, and the man in front of him was indeed not fighting with his full strength.

This is undoubtedly irritating and makes people feel angry from the bottom of their hearts.

Manshu put away some of his laxity and made destroying the opponent's body his first priority, launching an attack to gain victory.

The magical lightning jumping on the trident gradually reached a terrifying level. Although it was not that strong compared to the huge magical power possessed by Sigurd, it was already a very terrifying level compared to Manshu’s previous output.

With Helena's support from behind, Manshu can indeed improve his output in many areas.

This time, after releasing some of the magic sword Gram's performance, Sigurd still did not gain an advantage.
