With A+ level agility, Lu Xiao can flexibly dodge the thrust of the King of Knights' horse.
Compared with Lancelot, who also has A+ agility, Lu Xiao does not have such an obvious obsession with Arturia and can fight with the King of Knights in a more calm way.
The red aura lingering on the Immortal Slash was gradually strengthening, and Arturia instinctively felt uncomfortable with the aura emanating from this long knife.
'It's just like what the guardian said, it's a dragon-slaying treasure. You can't attack it head-on. You have to strike first.'
Arturia took a deep breath and temporarily stopped the horse from sprinting.
'Maiya, I hope you can persevere as you said.'
After widening the distance between him and Lu Xiao, Arturia raised the holy spear in his hand, and the seal that bound Lungominiad began to peel off.
Lu Xiao's expression changed: "No way, she still has the magic power needed to liberate the Noble Phantasm?"
"Seal thirteen, decision start!"
Arturia sank her consciousness into the Holy Spear, and the shadows of the twelve Knights of the Round Table surrounded her.
Kai: "This is a fight for survival - admit it."
Gahres: "This war is not a war against humanity - admit it."
Palomedes: "This battle is a one-on-one battle - admit it."
Lancelot: "This battle is not with the elves - admit it."
Galahad: "This battle is not fought for selfish reasons - admit it."
Ague's text: "This battle is a battle for truth—recognition."
Gawain: "Everything the king said is right!"
Arturia's green eyes seemed to turn into gold under the light of the holy spear.
"Holy Spear, pull out the anchor!"
A bright beam of light shot straight into the sky starting from the sound of the Holy Spear, and the night sky in Fuyuki was illuminated by the light of the Holy Spear in a short period of time.
Even Gilgamesh and Iskandar, who had just started fighting, couldn't help but turn their eyes.
"Hoho? It seems that the King of Knights and Assassin are starting to get serious."
Iskandar looked at Gilgamesh solemnly: "King of Heroes, you can skip this unnecessary temptation. It's time for us to start the real battle."
A cold smile appeared on Gilgamesh's face: "Well, you are a robber worthy of my personal trial. I will send you out tonight, King of Conquerors."
Iskandar raised the sword in his hand and shouted loudly: "Gather here, warriors who long for the end (Oceanos) together! The ruts engraved here are our honor!"
"ionioi hetairoi (the king's military power)!"
A huge amount of magic power erupted with Iskandar as the center, and Gilgamesh and Waver, who were swept by the magic power, disappeared along with him.
Without Gilgamesh's harassment, Leonardo da Vinci was finally able to take action against the rats that had sneaked into the temple.
…
When he saw seven rays of light flashing on the Holy Spear, Lu Xiao had a bad premonition in his heart, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but begin to twitch.
"The seven layers of seals have been lifted...as for that?"
"call!"
The fully released holy spear burst out with great power, and the big trees around Arturia were blown to and fro by the wind pressure.
The thunderclouds caused by Lu Xiao were also dispersed by the light of the holy spear rising into the sky, and the downpour suddenly stopped.
"The light shining from the end is the anchor of the storm that tears the sky and connects the ground..."
Arturia, whose eyes turned completely golden, raised the holy spear straight up, and the holy spear with dazzling light pointed directly at the locked Lu Xiao when Dong Stallion started running.
"Take the move, assassin! This is my full blow!"
'There's no other way, let's turn over the cards.'
When Arturia began to gallop his horse and charge, Lu Xiao made mysterious gestures with both hands, and the pendant that had always been hanging on his chest began to release the seal.
A faint green light emitted from the pendant, which looked very inconspicuous under the bright golden light of the holy spear.
"Fill the magic power with the command spell, time stone, and release your power!"
"Bah!"
The fourteen command spells on Lu Xiao's right arm disappeared in one stroke, and the light of the time stone suddenly became dazzling.
Under the charge of the war horse, Artoria was less than five meters away from Lu Xiao.
Raising the Holy Spear slightly, Arturia shouted out the true name of the Noble Phantasm: "(Rhongyniad) The Spear of the Shining Finale!"
"boom!!"
The golden beam of light that seemed capable of destroying heaven and earth was released at once by the holy spear, extending along Arturia's deliberately raised gun body to the skyline of Fuyuki City.
Kuon Maiya, who had installed explosives near Tosaka's house, held the wall with one hand and gasped violently. In order to help Emiya Kiritsugu realize his wish, she overdrawn her life force and forcibly refined the magic power, and then she barely managed to get the Noble Phantasm of Liberation of Artoria.
required consumption.
"Ha~ha~"
Seeing the light that represented victory, Maiya's pale face showed a faint smile that was rarely seen.
"Kiritsugu, did you see it? We defeated Assassin."
Far away on the outskirts of the new capital, Kiritsugu was still unable to move freely, but he also looked up and saw the gorgeous light.
"Well, I saw it."
Barely holding up his body, Maiya took out the bomb detonator from his arms: "As long as we use the holy spear to defeat the winner between rdier and archer, we will win this Holy Grail War."
After being injured and unable to move, Kiritsugu's originally strong will seemed to have softened, and his tone suddenly became choked: "But, your body..."
Maiya comforted and said: "Don't worry, I will hold on until the moment victory comes, and I will hold it for you with my own hands... huh?"
As the shocking power of the holy spear gradually dissipated, the night sky in Fuyuki City returned to calm, but the scene presented in front of the telescope made Maiya suddenly speechless.
"You are really working hard. You have exhausted your vitality and want to win this victory. Is it necessary to have such an obsession with the Holy Grail?"
The childish voice coming from the Tohsaka residence made Maiya subconsciously press the detonator in her hand.
"Beep~"
A few seconds passed and nothing happened.
"it's useless."
A little girl with twin tails under ten years old slowly rose up under the influence of the workshop's magic and temporarily floated in mid-air.
Rin looked at Kuon Maiya who had difficulty moving with some pity: "Since I know that the one who attacked us is a magician killer, do you think I won't make corresponding preparations for this?"
"I have already disposed of your bomb, so just let it go and don't force me to be ruthless."
…
When Rin controlled Maiya, who was in poor condition, Arturia, whose magic power was exhausted, stared at the unharmed Assassin in front of her in disbelief. She could not even maintain the magic power required for the war horse to appear.
"How is that possible!?"
"Lungominiad is the anchor that fixes the end of the world. In theory, it can penetrate any defense. Why can you be unharmed?"
The light of the time gem on Lu Xiao's chest became much dimmed, and it could no longer be used in a short period of time without recharging.
"嚓~"
Pulling out the Immortal Slash from the ground, Lu Xiao released his true name without saying a word.
"The flow of birth and death, the endless cycle of reincarnation."
"Dragon's Tears of Worship - Immortal Slash!"
The sharp red light blade shot out from the undead sword. Without magic power and a war horse, Arturia could no longer dodge as flexibly as when she was in good condition.
The light blade emitted by the Immortal Slash passed through her body. The strong magic armor of the King of Knights was easily penetrated as if made of paper. Her spiritual core was also shattered by the True Name Liberation Immortal Slash.
Arturia, whose whole body began to transform into a spirit child, sighed helplessly: "It's a pity that I couldn't keep my promise and win the Holy Grail."
Seeing Arturia on her deathbed, Lu Xiao breathed a sigh of relief and then spoke up to explain to her.
"King of Knights, your holy spear can indeed penetrate all defenses, provided that the target does exist at 'this point in time'."
Clicking on the pendant on his chest, Lu Xiao nodded and said: "This auxiliary treasure is my trump card. When the true name is liberated, it can intercept and control the absolute time of this world. Do you understand?
?”
Arturia's eyes wandered. Her master, Kiritsugu Emiya, used time magic. It was not too difficult to understand Lu Xiao's explanation.
"I see. Did you hide in the gap of time? No wonder the holy spear couldn't hit... I lost."
Seeing the King of Knights' relief turning into golden magic flow and dissipating, Lu Xiao turned his head to look at where the red a was before.
