Xingtie: Can’t you just let me focus on completing the commissions?

"I went to great lengths to bring you sisters together, but I never expected to be met with such a hurtful attitude. How cold-hearted is this society..."

Before he could finish speaking, Tianzhou Ma'ana appeared beside the silver-haired girl, and several magic bullets with the destructive power equivalent to A-rank Noble Phantasms hurtled towards him.

"Miss Goddess is too impatient."

The destructive power of the A-rank Noble Phantasm magic bullets was naturally something Emiya could easily counter. With a simple snap of his fingers, hundreds of demonic swords appeared behind him, slicing through all the incoming magic bullets while simultaneously turning their attack towards the goddess.

"presumptuous!"

A furious shout echoed throughout the dark underworld. The goddess piloted her celestial ark into the sky, countless streams of light appearing behind her. Hundreds upon hundreds of demonic projectiles rained down, bombarding the man on the ground.

Those magic bullets were incredibly fast, almost too fast for the naked eye to see.

but,

Even with the Sharingan, the trajectory of the demonic bullet was clearly visible.

He wielded his sword with the ease of slicing down a swift in flight, as if dancing amidst a hail of bullets.

The combined skills and experience of hundreds of heroic spirits have brought his combat prowess to its pinnacle; simple bombardment with magic bullets simply cannot inflict the slightest harm on him.

As the magical projectiles were continuously struck down or grazed past Emiya, the goddess Venus in the sky grew increasingly grim.

"Damn it 々々."

"Get down here!"

A sharp shout rang in the goddess's ears, and the power of the underworld coalesced into a tangible pressure, slamming heavily onto her body.

At the same time,

As she fell, Emiya caught a glimpse of that fleeting opening and vulnerability.

He raised the sword in his hand and pulled it forward as if with great ease.

The moment this sword was swung

The space itself seemed to be resounding with a tearing sound.

The sword energy, as bright as the moon, sliced ​​straight through the pitch-black underworld.

Like silver fireworks blooming in this darkness,

Beautiful, yet containing a chilling aura.

A rumbling cracking sound echoed through the space.

The sword energy, shimmering like moonlight and carrying a force that seemed poised to tear apart the very fabric of space, surged toward Ishtar.

If we don't avoid it, we might even die.

Witnessing this moonlight-like slash, a sharp, cutting pain shot into my eyes.

This strike has already entered the realm of gods.

A strike powerful enough to kill a god.

Ishtar clearly understood this point at this moment, and at the same time, she understood more and more deeply that, let alone her incomplete self, even if her true self came, she would never dare to underestimate this attack.

This man is very strong; he is a being who truly rivals or even surpasses the gods.

"Ma Anna!!"

With a low growl, Ishtar desperately channeled her magic into the celestial vessel beneath her feet, finally breaking free from the shackles of the underworld and dodging the oncoming moonlight.

The moonlight continued to soar into the endless darkness. Fortunately, there was no concept of distance in the conventional sense within this underworld, so the moonlight did not ultimately cut the underworld in two. Otherwise, it would probably have given the goddess of Venus a chance to escape.

“Saber?”

Having narrowly escaped the fatal blow, Ishtar looked down at the man on the ground, her eyes flickering with an uncertain light.

"His swordsmanship is at the level of a chief god; in any mythology, he would be worthy of the title 'Sword God.' And this guy is actually on Ereshkigal's side, and... the Underworld has severed my connection with Gugalana."

"If this continues, I'm likely to be the one who loses."

then,

A fierce glint appeared in Ishtar's eyes, and she suddenly began chanting ancient incantations.

"Ma'anna! Open the door—!"

"From the great heavens to the great earth, we proclaim your arrival—!"

As the incantation fell, terrifying magic began to brutally destroy the spatial structure of the underworld, as if it wanted to tear the underworld apart and summon even more distant and majestic beings to it.

"All living things on earth should fear me—!"

"Sons of man, prostrate yourselves on the ground and look up to the heavens!"

"This is all I have—!"

Click!

A cracking sound pierced Ai Lei's ears, and the mistress of the underworld let out a cold laugh.

"This is my home turf—"

Immediately, the same ancient incantation began to flow from the throat of the Mistress of the Underworld.

"The heavens have desolate seas, the earth has prisons—my heel is the wrath of the underworld!"

A dazzling red light began to appear all around the Underworld, and an abnormally high temperature spread from beneath their feet. Emiya narrowed his eyes slightly, snapped his fingers, and used the Aurora Veil to engulf Irisviel and send her out of the Underworld.

"Appear, Temple of Fever—!"

As the incantation descended, the already fragmented underworld was shattered by Ereshkigal herself, replaced by a scorching hell that began to radiate endless, dazzling crimson light.

The burning crimson light, like molten steel, emitted an astonishing heat wave. If a human were still in this place, they would probably be instantly engulfed by this heat wave and burned to vaporization by the crimson light.

Above the sky is the goddess of heaven, who summons the power beyond the stars.

On the earth dwells the Earth Goddess, who also invokes the inner power of the stars.

These twin goddesses, sharing the same origin, should have been an even closer pair of sisters. However, the distance between heaven and earth seems to have stretched their silhouettes to an infinitely distant place.

"The Spirit Peak embraces the Netherworld's saddle—!"

"The mountain range shakes the star's flame—!"

Chapter 253: Can We Reconcile?

Noble Phantasms clashing

It was like two small planets colliding.

The crimson spear, glowing red-hot, clashed violently with the arrows formed from the swooping projection of the planet.

Although the forms they take and the power attributes they represent differ,

but,

The power displayed by these two goddesses is indeed from the same father.

"They were all taught by the same master. They can't break the moves."

"Could it be that your own father, An, also plays this kind of game?"

"You guys can't kill anyone by fighting like this. You should just go farm some seed fire."

Emiya-sensei didn't have high expectations for the numerical values ​​of Type-Moon's home planet. Planetary-level mana output was almost always capped at the Beast-class, and machines like Chaos, capable of draining the energy of an entire planet, were commonplace in space.

To the members of the Genius Club, the clash between these two goddesses was probably like two children arguing about the sun.

of course,

For those below the rank of commander, it still possesses a certain degree of deterrent power.

If we had to rank them, they'd be at the level of the two goddesses in their complete forms, specifically after Danheng transformed into the incomplete Vidyadhara Dragon Lord. (313)

If you start speedrunning using imaginary energy,

He completed the Holy Grail War a long time ago.

However, to avoid being treated as an intruder and constantly on guard, he leisurely played this war game with these goddesses and even Valkyries.

"You dog shit, once I've taken everything I wanted, if you dare treat me like an invader, I'll teach you a lesson about respecting a savior with the Blade King Sword."

The visual spectacle of their Noble Phantasms clashing lasted a full half minute before ending in a draw and vanishing without a trace.

Just as the clash of their Noble Phantasms ended, a beam of golden light suddenly broke free from the silver-haired girl's body. Even Ereshkigal hadn't reacted in time; the beam of golden light had already rapidly approached the upper reaches of the Underworld.

Immediately, a crack was blasted open 'above' the underworld.

Then,

The silver-haired little girl's body suddenly plummeted from the sky.

The celestial vessel, however, carrying a wisp of light, sped rapidly toward the direction of that sliver of light and shadow, fleeing at breakneck speed.

"Goodness, they've got a lot of tricks up their sleeves."

In an instant, he abandoned Ilya's body.

They broke through the barrier of the underworld with something strange (chdd). If Mr. Emiya isn't mistaken, that thing...

It's probably the Holy Grail.

Ok,

A rare moment of usefulness.

It was used as a bomb.

If Miss Nobu could see this scene, she would surely be delighted and want to be friends with this goddess.

However, on the other hand, if someone with maxed-out divinity actually appeared in front of Oda Nobunaga, they would probably be shot to death.

"However, I went to the trouble of tricking you into coming here. If I just let you escape like this, wouldn't I look like a coward?"

Emiya narrowed his eyes, stretched out his hand, and for a fleeting moment, golden chains appeared in his pupils. Then, the divine artifact symbolizing the binding of the Heavenly Wedge swiftly attacked the unit whose divine debuff was fully stacked.

As Ishtar desperately fled aboard her celestial vessel, she suddenly caught sight of the golden chains out of the corner of her eye. Her still-developing body even staggered involuntarily.

???

The Lock of Heaven?!

Why is this thing here?!

Even the mistress of the underworld couldn't help but have a slightly subtle expression when she saw that thing, but when she recalled the scene of Emiya pulling out Ea right away, she couldn't help but laugh out loud.

She truly is her good younger sister; she wants to experience the hardships her older sister went through.

He himself was startled by the Excalibur, and now it's this brat's turn to be startled by the Chains of Heaven.

"Break through it! Ma'anna!!"

Ishtar roared again, pouring even more magic into her, attempting to break free of the Underworld's shackles and escape the multiple chains as quickly as possible.

And her beloved Noble Phantasm did not disappoint her, suddenly accelerating even further, its form becoming extremely blurry.

After firmly leaving the Chains of Heaven behind, and with the moment she was about to break through the light and reach the outside world, Ishtar couldn't help but burst into laughter.

"Once I get out, I'll kill you all one by one..."

She began to taunt wildly, and the Sky Boat, as she wished, plunged into a pure white light curtain.

As she broke through that pure white curtain of light, her eyes instinctively began to seek the light of the external environment, but...

The world beyond the pure white light curtain

It was still pitch black.

Even more remarkably, a familiar figure raised a hand and gave her another kind smile.

"Goddess Ishtar, what are you going to do when you go out?"

"...I didn't have a choice before, but now I want to make peace with my sister."

Her voice became very gentle, as if she had been transformed from a wild Siberian big cat into a domesticated orange tabby.

"Peace talks? Sure, but first make me ten thousand gun rabble, and then I'll negotiate with you."

Miss Eresh slowly walked over, carrying her birdcage, and smiled as she stared at her helpless little sister.
