Astolfo, who was swimming in the lake, suddenly heard a sound, which seemed to come from the forest near the lake. She smelled an interesting smell and whistled.
"Hipeagle!"
She called her partner's name.
It was a fantasy species that was once very famous, just like the Chimera.
Griffins (Griffins) once spread all over the world and were ferocious carnivorous animals. In human literary works, you can always see scenes of griffins appearing.
According to myths and legends, if a griffon mates with a mare, a strange beast called a hippogriff will be born. It is a strange creature with an eagle head, talons, wings and the lower body of a horse.
I don’t know why Astolfo can use this fantasy species as a mount. She doesn’t understand this kind of thing herself. For a servant whose rationality has evaporated, it is too difficult to explain something to others.
Anyway, it can be summoned!
Upon hearing the signal, the traces of magic in the sky became thicker, and the handsome eagle swooped towards Astolfo. She let out a hey, grabbed its feathers in the water, and turned over to straddle him.
"Hey!" (It's so wet! Put your clothes on quickly!)
"Hey hey hey, long time no see~mate~ do you miss me too? Hug~"
"Guah!" (Put your clothes on quickly! The feathers! The feathers are all wet! I can't take care of my back!)
"Let's go over there and check out the situation! There seems to be something in the forest!"
Astolfo, who had no idea what his companion was talking about, came up with a conclusion to himself, built a tent with his hands, and looked into the distance.
Smoke and dust are flying in the forest, and no matter how you look at it, it looks like something is fighting. Moreover, they are moving while fighting, very fast, and the scale is not small. They are now approaching the Chaldea BBQ venue.
Astolfo controlled the Hippogriff to fly that way. His helpless companion knew that she would not listen to him, so he sighed and followed her orders.
"Hahaha, that's great. You are indeed my old enemy, Darius III! The heroic King of Persia! The destructive King of Storms! But this time I just want to drink with you! Although I feel very embarrassed to say so after picking up the sword.
It’s just not convincing.”
The one who made the passionate voice was Alexander.
When he was young, Alexander had a handsome appearance and slender limbs. As a servant, naturally his combat power could not be measured by his body.
However, what was chasing him was a huge man with a height of over three meters who was covered in pitch black. No one would have thought that a muscular man like Darius III would be weaker than a small man like Alexander.
The two are old enemies.
In order to see the scenery he longed for, Alexander conquered Persia all the way, which was his only way.
Darius, on the other hand, turned into the most stubborn shield and blocked his way.
It is not that the two of them have nothing in common.
Alexander was ambitious and ambitious, and so was Darius III.
Feeling the problems in Persia at that time, the Persian king, who was determined to solve the internal cancer of Persia, was preparing to implement an internal reform system.
If the two could have met ten years later, or an era earlier, then the outcome would definitely have been different.
As servants, Darius III and Alexander probably really enjoyed drinking and chatting about the wars during their lifetimes.
It is a pity that the Darius summoned by Chaldea is Darius who is in the middle of the third pursuit battle. He is a berserker and the irrational king of destruction.
If there was anything that Darius III was unwilling to do when he was about to die, it was that he did not fight Iskandar (Alexander) at full strength.
At that time, Persia had begun to become corrupt. Both its army and its internal affairs had serious problems. It can be said that although Persia was huge, it had begun to become corrupt internally and its combat effectiveness was not strong. Darius wanted to reform, but he did not
By that time, Alexander's army had advanced.
So we have to fight.
Therefore, the battle is doomed.
Darius III's wish for the Holy Grail at that time was to "fight Iskandar again".
Next time, we will definitely have a collision between the most elite Persian army and the elite soldiers of the conquering king.
But now, Darius, the berserker warrior who met Alexander, could not suppress the madness of joy at all. While roaring, he waved the golden battle ax in his hands with both hands, and while taking steps, he chopped down all the trees blocking the road.
!
Alexander, on the other hand, was holding a dagger and riding a black horse. While avoiding his pursuit, he was looking for a suitable opportunity and suddenly jumped up from the horse and jumped back.
One way forward, the other backward, at relative speeds, the distance between the two people was rapidly approaching. Clenching the dagger in his hand, Alexander aimed his sword at Darius's eyes and slashed at him. The destructive Storm King was not to be outdone, and he was running.
, the big ax in his hand returned to defense, and the golden ax struck Alexander's sword blade, sending his whole body flying out, just like a baseball!
Darius's golden pupils followed closely because the target was knocked away. At this moment, Bucephalas suddenly accelerated, turned around nimbly, and hit Darius's chest! In the true sense,
Take the lead!
Boom!
They were all made of flesh and blood, but they made a heavy sound no less than the collision of metal. Even an exaggeratedly strong man like Darius was knocked to pieces by the divine horse Buscephalus. The huge sound was overwhelming.
His body lost its balance, and his whole body was knocked backwards like a barrel.
Alexander, on the other hand, was able to open a distance of thousands of meters in one breath because of being knocked away! Coupled with the dense forest and very poor vision, Darius suddenly lost track of Alexander, as if an angry bull gradually calmed down.
Likewise, his golden pupils gradually calmed down, his breathing gradually became steady, and he stood in a daze like a statue.
The forest gradually became calm, and after a long time, some birds and beasts gradually began to dare to explore this once crazy place.
The bird rested on Darius's shoulder, treating it as a bare tree.
The hare jumped over, gnawed the grass, pricked up its ears and jumped away again.
When angry, he is a mad king of destruction.
When it is calm, it is like a peaceful boulder.
Darius III possesses both the ultimate in stillness and the ultimate in movement.
Now, like a robot that has lost its energy, it has quietly stopped moving.
In the distance, Alexander saw that he was not chasing him and was relieved.
"You have to be careful when inviting Darius next time. One day we will have a drink with him. Hmm."
With this thought in mind, he moved his arms that were numb from the shock and walked towards the camping site where everyone was having a barbecue.
