"Don't make it sound so easy. Mashu is not yet capable of facing such a powerful Servant."

Upon hearing Olga Marie's words, Mo Li shouted angrily:

"How will you know if you don't try? If you keep protecting them like this, when will you ever grow up?"

"But I'm worried that we'll be facing such a powerful enemy on our first try..."

"It's alright, Director. I want to give it a try. I believe the senior thinks the same way."

"Go, Mashu!"

Gudako revealed the Command Seals on the back of her hand, demonstrating her determination.

Seeing this, Olga Marie said nothing more, turned around with her hands behind her back, and whispered:

"I'm not going to care about you anymore, but don't die!"

"Yes, Director. Mr. Mo Li, I'm ready!"

"Then, let the battle begin!"

Chapter 23 Rebellion Awakens, the Power of Revenge

The three formed a triangular formation, with Moli as the spearhead, and charged at Hercules.

"I'll use you to test the power of the Blade of Rebellion." Mo Li threw the blade from his hand, and it seemed to come alive as it stabbed straight at Hercules.

Blood flowed from Hercules' body; a single blow had caused him bleeding damage.

It seems to be Heracles after being weakened by that old rascal Mushroom. Well then, I won't hold back.

"Impressive, Mr. Mo Li has a truly diverse arsenal of weapons!"

"Hmph, you haven't seen its true form yet, Mashu, cover me!"

Moli stepped onto Mash's large shield, and then Mash used Shield Bash. Using the recoil, Moli flew into the sky and became level with Hercules.

After retrieving the Blade of Rebellion from his hand, Mo Li slashed again, leaving a long, bloody gash on Hercules' body.

Hercules, in pain, clasped his hands together, intending to swat the tiny insect in front of him to death.

Just then, Cú Chulainn's runes arrived in time, and a gust of wind blew Mo Li away.

"Roar roar roar roar roar roar—!"

Perhaps Hercules and Cú Chulainn were simply too incompatible; the moment he saw Cú Chulainn, he forgot all about Moli and chased after Cú Chulainn to fight.

After Mashu caught Mori, she witnessed this miraculous scene.

"Damn it, why is this guy only chasing me, you bastard!"

"Well, maybe he likes you too much. Even though his spirit origin has become Caster, he still can't forget you."

"Stop making sarcastic remarks and come help us!"

As Cú Chulainn ran, he threw fireballs behind him, trying to slow down Heracles's offensive.

However, since Cú Chulainn had already killed him once in their last battle, the runes were now immune to Heracles and posed no threat.

Mo Li, no longer able to suppress her laughter, grabbed the Rebel and ran up, slashing Hercules in the chest with her sword.

Disturbed, Hercules saw that the person who came was Moli and swung his axe sword straight down at him.

Having abandoned reason and thus greatly enhanced his physical abilities, Hercules possesses melee combat skills that surpass all Servants.

Mo Li dared not fight him head-on, and quickly jumped away, causing the ground to tremble.

It's easy to imagine that if Mo Li were hit, he would be severely injured, if not killed.

"Mr. Mo Li, are you alright?"

"Phew, I'm fine. Unless this guy uses a Noble Phantasm, it's very difficult to hurt him!"

"What should I do? I've already used my Noble Phantasm once, and the little girl is a defensive type, so there's no way to fight her."

"I still have this sword, I can give it a try!"

Mo Li wanted to try out the awakened state of the Blade of Rebellion, so he poured all the magic power generated by the Demon King Seed into the Blade of Rebellion.

The rebellious sword, imbued with magic, began to tremble. The bones on either side of the skull, which had been closed, suddenly opened, and the skull's mouth also opened. The end of the hilt resembled a crown.

Mo Li could also sense the power of Rebellion. His golden eyes shone, and he abandoned his previous cautious style, swinging Rebellion and beginning to frantically slash at Hercules' chest.

More and more bloodstains appeared on his body, and Hercules couldn't help but let out a painful cry.

"Pour all your power into this Rebel!"

Mo Li concentrated all the energy of his rebellion onto the blade, and with a powerful swing, released an invisible shockwave that rushed straight towards Hercules.

Hercules, who was attacked head-on, felt as if a thousand energies were destroying his body. He roared to the sky, and his eyes gradually turned gray.

With a deafening roar, Hercules' body collapsed to the ground, and his weapon vanished into thin air as particles of light.

Hercules, who was expected to be resurrected, did not rise again this time.

Like Lancer and Rider, he returned directly to Valhalla.

Seeing Hercules fall in battle, Mo Li breathed a sigh of relief and collapsed to the ground.

The Phoenix Tear in his palm was also put back into the system space.

"Mr. Mo Li, we succeeded! We defeated the Berserker!"

"Hey, are you alright? Do you want to rest for a bit?"

Mo Li shook his head, indicating that he was fine, just a little exhausted.

Olga and Gudako arrived immediately. Upon seeing Moli's condition, Olga immediately placed her hand on Moli's back to treat him.

Feeling the coolness behind him, Mo Li did not refuse Olga's kindness.

"Seriously, you're completely drained. What kind of trick could possibly make you this exhausted?!"

"A move that can kill Hercules always comes at a price!"

"You're really going all out! You're supposed to be a Master, but you're doing the work of a Servant!"

A hint of surprise flashed in Mo Li's eyes. He hadn't expected the Blade of Rebellion to unleash such powerful energy.

After being scolded by Olga, Mo Li didn't argue back, since he didn't have any family members of his own.

Cú Chulainn couldn't offer much help in this regard, so he had to do it himself.

However, this wasn't without its rewards. Hercules alone gave Mori 2000 Demon Lord Points, twice as much as any other Servant.

"Speaking of which, you really know how to surprise people. You're not even human!"

"Well, it is indeed difficult to define, but would you like to give it a try?"

"W-what... You stay put and don't move, you bastard!"

"I'm injured right now, Olga. You probably don't have a boyfriend, right?"

"Mind your own business. I bet nobody likes you either."

Olga gently patted Mo Li's shoulder, blushed, turned her head away, and quickly stood up after transferring the magic power.

With Mashu's support, Mo Li slowly stood up and put the rebellious spirit into the system space.

After the fierce battle between Mori and Hercules, the school could no longer serve as a place of rest.

Apart from the remaining fragments of desks, it's almost impossible to tell that this place used to be a school.

After Mo Li regained some of his strength, the group began looking for a new place to rest.

"There's something I find strange. Didn't Mr. Mo Li say that Berserker had two lives left? How come he disappeared after only one defeat?"

"I can't say for sure. Maybe he was defeated by another Servant once. What's wrong, Mash?"

"No, I'm just a little concerned that Saber was able to kill Berserker seven times so easily, and we..."

Mashu didn't say what she was going to say, but everyone present understood what she meant.

Indeed, Saber with infinite magic power would be an absolute nightmare for Chaldea right now.

Without Moli and Cú Chulainn, they probably wouldn't have even been able to get past Medusa.

It wasn't out of fear, but mainly due to feelings of inferiority stemming from my own weakness.

"You can't think of things like that. Everything has its counterpart. Maybe Mash is just naturally good at countering Saber?"

"Huh? Is that so?"

Chapter 24: The Love-Hate Relationship Between Red A and Cú Chulainn

Ryudouji Temple, Fuyuki City, underground of Mount Enzo.

Looking at the enormous cave in front of them, the Great Grail, which stores magical power, is located at the deepest part of the cave.

Even Mashu 8521 couldn't help but sigh, saying to 04278:

"Wow, this is amazing. It looks like a natural cave. Was this place originally in Fuyuki City?"

"This is something that is half natural and half artificial, an underground workshop that magicians have been developing over the years."

Olga Marie, born into the prestigious Animusfia family of magicians, is very familiar with such magic workshops because her father is one of the twelve monarchs of the Clock Tower and the Minister of Astronomical Science.

Moreover, the Greater Grail of Fuyuki City isn't exactly a secret in the magic world, so it's normal for Olga to know about it.

While everyone was marveling at the magic tricks, Mo Li remained extremely cautious. He didn't believe that the enemy's stronghold would be completely unguarded or without any traps.

Even if Artoria disdains doing such a thing, Archer wouldn't let this opportunity pass.

Sure enough, just as Mo Li was thinking this, Fou on Mashu's shoulder started to bristle, as if there was danger lurking in the shadows.

Mo Li turned around and found Red A standing alone on a tree, quietly looking at the crowd in front of him. A hint of hesitation flashed in his eyes, but he quickly made up his mind.

"No sooner had I finished speaking than a believer appeared. This time, I will definitely not let you escape again."

"As expected, Archer, you will definitely appear as soon as we get close to here."

As Mo Li expected, Red A's mission seemed to be to prevent Mo Li and his group from meeting Artoria.

This guy always does things with a clear purpose, but now, Mo Li still doesn't know what Red A is after. Is he just trying to stop Mo Li?

"Are you still protecting the master of the holy sword?"

“I don’t remember ever being a believer. My job is just to kick out boring visitors and kill you while I’m at it.”

Red A stared straight at Mo Li, his eyes filled with killing intent, leaving Mo Li somewhat confused.

I don't think I've really offended him. All I did was kill Emiya Shirou once, and I even revived you. There's no need to be so petty.

Mo Li shook his head. Although he didn't understand whether Red A was working for the Counter Force or helping Saber, one thing was certain: this person was definitely an enemy.

"Really? So you're not planning to run away this time?"

“Master, why bother with the thoughts of a watchdog? Although I don’t know whose hands you want to protect Saber from, let’s settle this here.”

Cú Chulainn stood in front of Moli this time, took out his staff, and prepared to unleash his runes.

Red A also took out his bow, projected a sword, drew his longbow, and pointed it directly at Cú Chulainn.

"I'm sorry, I don't have that much free time!"

Red A released his grip, and a spiral sword flew towards Mo Li, its target very clear.

Mo Li stood there quietly, his eyes coldly fixed on the incoming bow and sword, showing no intention of moving.

Seeing this, Mash quickly raised her shield and stepped forward, trying to block Archer's bow and sword attack.

"Don't say such discouraging things, Archer. Get your facts straight. I'm your opponent, or are you just not confident you can beat me?"

The sword aimed at Mo Li was burned to ashes in mid-air by Cú Chulainn's fire, and at the same time, he summoned several more fireballs, which headed towards Red A.

An explosion occurred where Red A had been standing. Red A leaped out through the smoke, his hands not idle, drawing his bow and sword, aiming at Cú Chulainn in front of him.

"Go now, Saber is inside. I'll take care of this."

“But, Mr. Cú Chulainn…”

"I'll stay here. Mashu, you guys go inside quickly, and be careful."

Mo Li decided to stay behind and fight alongside Cú Chulainn. Although she wanted to finish him off, she was more concerned that Cú Chulainn would not be left to fight against Red A alone.

Olga knew this was not the time to hesitate, so she quickly made her decision and said loudly:

"Let's go quickly, the rest is up to you!"
