Chapter 70, The Second Noble Phantasm - Liberation!
"Well, it should be almost done here, right?"
Mordred and Yagi Yusei walked all the way to the wilderness outside the capital city of Rome. They were twenty or thirty kilometers away, and the bustling walls of Rome could hardly be seen. Only then did Mordred stop.
Although he doesn't remember the specific details, Mordred does know that he [played against Siegfried]. The liberation of the sword's true name will release a fairly wide-area magic wave. If there are no restrictions, it is likely to
affects the general public.
Mordred is also a knight, and he is the one who will become the king in the future. How could he deliberately harm the people? Although his personality is a bit careless and easy to get hot-headed, in essence, Mordred is still a knight.
.
"I said, can you really do it?... Maybe you can really do it. I'm kind of looking forward to it."
Mordred asked first, and then she affirmed it to herself. She thought of Yagi Yusei's ability to activate the sword in Mordred's hand.
That sword was originally King Arthur's sword, but it was stolen by Mordred. As a noble phantom, it followed Mordred's summons.
The point is: Yagi Yusei successfully activated a Noble Phantasm that [originally did not belong to him].
This is the most critical aspect of Yagi Seksai’s previous behavior.
Although generally speaking, even if servants exchange Noble Phantasms, they will not be able to release their true names because there is no relevant legend. But maybe Yagi Yukisai can do something similar.
After all, he and Siegfried both have dragon attributes.
Moreover, Yagi Sekssai is decisively different from ordinary servants.
That is, the other servants have all [died]. They all left great achievements during their lifetime and were honored in the Hall of Valor after their death. In other words, these heroes will no longer become stronger. They
At most, it will be infinitely close to what it was like in its heyday.
But Yagi Yusei is different, he is still alive. As long as he is alive, there are infinite possibilities. What he does now will affect his future. As a servant, he has the [possibility of growth].
Of course, the most important reason is——
(He is the knight's squire that I, Mordred, like, so he should be able to do this kind of thing!)
She was filled with confidence for no reason.
Yagi Xuezai was also beating his drum in his heart. After all, this was the first time he took the initiative to use another servant's Noble Phantasm. However, thinking about it, the worst result was that he could not free his true name. It was a bit embarrassing to swing the sword in vain. What was he afraid of?
This is like a gamble with no possibility of failure, either no reward or a big prize. What kind of psychological burden does this kind of gamble require?
After carefully recalling what Siegfried said when he handed the sword to him, he didn't mention anything particularly noteworthy.
He stood still, his blue swordsmanship uniform rising and falling with his breathing. He raised Balmonk with both hands and raised it above his head. Without hesitation, he directly pulled away the hilt of the sword.
The two-piece hilt passed through the mechanism and opened easily, revealing the blue gem inside. As soon as the gem hit the air, majestic magic power surged out.
Yagi Xuezai only felt a sharp tingling sensation running down his palms to his arms, all the way along his limbs, and invading his heart.
If it was Siegfried, he would probably be bypassed by the sword because he was the real owner of the sword.
But Yagi Sekssai couldn't do it. The moment he pulled the sword hilt away, the rich and undiminished magic power of the Gods contained in the gems instantly filled the blade, and started to erode Yagi Sekssai's body along his hands.
"Hey, use your magic power! Block it!"
Seeing that Yagi Xuezai's face changed color and gradually turned pale, Mordred said anxiously. Yagi Xuezai gritted his teeth, how could she say more? How could he not know? But he couldn't do it.
It's like a close tug-of-war. If you don't grab the rope at the beginning, it will be difficult to regain the victory later.
In the same way, if you were not prepared in the first place and most of it was eroded by the magic power, it will be difficult to regain control of your body now.
Yagi Yusei tried hard to steady the hilt of the sword, but now he felt that the demon sword Balmonk was simply heavier than the war hammer, and his hands could not help shaking.
"Hey! Let go! Damn it, I'll help you..."
Looking at his current appearance, Mordred knew that he had probably failed. He was afraid that something would happen to him.
Servants are aggregation of magic power. If they are penetrated by a different kind of magic power, it will definitely not be a pleasant experience.
"It doesn't matter! I am - the heir of King Arthur's Holy Sword!!!"
Yagi Xuezhai tried his best to squeeze out a few words through his teeth and waved his hands with all his strength.
The magic power had been stored in his hand for too long, and the whole sword had already emitted a strong blue color. As Yagi Xuezai swung the sword, the blue magic light instantly turned into a surging pillar of light, pressing towards the space in front of him.
It passed by, crushing the ground and burning the air. Although the specific range could not be seen, from the time it disappeared from sight, the range was at least one kilometer away.
After the magic power was swung out, the sword hilt automatically clicked shut, and the magic power that had corroded Yagi Xuezai disappeared instantly. He breathed a sigh of relief and collapsed on the ground.
To be honest, the blow just now was not the liberation of the true name of the Noble Phantasm at all.
To put it bluntly, it is just super-intensive magic power that is aggregated and then emitted. It is essentially the same thing as the [Magic Release] used by Yagi Yukisai. It's just that the power is different.
For example, the magic power emitted by Yagi Yukisai is similar to that of a faucet, while the light cannon emitted by Balmonk just now is a high-pressure water cannon. This is probably the difference. Although the power is very different, there is essentially no difference.
"Oh! Isn't this amazing! You have talent and talent!"
Mordred looked at Yagi Xuezai's range with great excitement. The pillar of light had disappeared, leaving earth tunnels emitting high-temperature steam on the ground. Some places had even begun to crystallize due to high heat.
She hasn't noticed yet. If Yagi Xuesai is indeed very talented, doesn't it mean that King Arthur has no problem with his vision of people?
However, Mordred is not the kind of person who pays attention to details, and his hatred for King Arthur is not pure, nor is he particularly sensitive.
Yagi Xuezai smiled bitterly and looked at his arms...
The blue sleeves were completely stained red and black with blood, and the muscles in his arms were twitching constantly.
Fortunately, as a sub-servant who is a combination of a servant and a magician, he can use ordinary medical magic to heal himself, and as a servant, such skin injuries can easily regenerate themselves.
"Come on, before you forget the previous feeling, continue to shoot, no, a few more!"
"Yeah! No problem... I finally feel like I've got the key."
Yagi responded and stood up, placing his arms on the ground and trying to support his body to stand up.
However, just this simple movement made him feel crushing pain in both arms...
Although the skin and flesh look like ordinary people, the body composed of internal magic power has been crushed to pieces and cannot maintain normal functions at all.
"Huh? What's wrong?"
"Ah, it's okay. I'll just recall the feeling."
Yagi Xuezai smiled casually, endured the pain, stood up, and picked up Balmonk again.
"I'm telling you, the key is to use your magic power to control it! In short, don't worry about it, just open the hilt of the sword, pour your magic power into it, and then shout the name of the Noble Phantasm!"
Mordred didn't notice his strange behavior, and was immersed in the joy that he could liberate the Noble Phantasm, and told him random details that he noticed that might be useful.
"I know! I'll do it a few more times!"
Yagi Xuezai responded, endured the severe pain, and picked up the sword again. As he breathed, the dragon's magic power filled his body, and then he pulled away the hilt of the sword again.
