Chapter Twenty-Six: The Night of the Coming of the Grail...... The final battle

Dream.

How long has it been since you dreamed?

Actually, I know that this is the memory of a teenager who is a servant himself.

The Master can see his Servant's past in the form of a dream.

So, that's what that teenager once experienced, right?

This is the endless universe, and it is also a realm that humans have not yet been able to truly enter.

There, there was a large group of non-humans of all shapes and appearances attacking a teenager, and the teenager was just as merciless in retaliating.

- This is a hell of flesh and blood.

Suddenly, the dream was interrupted.

The maiden fell into a deep sleep again.

β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”

In the underground cavern, countless ice arrows are flying in all directions.

Saber nimbly dodged the arrows of ice in the sky and rushed forward.

"Oh, it seems to be a little stronger than the original, too, after all, the Master has been replaced by Rin, and the magic power has been replenished."

Crushing the insect in his right hand, a super-sized ice giant sword appeared in Naraku's hand.

"But it's just a little bit."

Golden mana surged from his body.

Swing your sword, slash.

Clang!!!

The wind pressure erupted with two people as the center.

The corners of Saber's mouth twisted slightly, and the collision of steel and steel ended in Saber's defeat.

Without the slightest skill, he launched the [Bull] Naraku and swung the giant sword completely at will, but with each blow, Saber was able to parry with the strength of his whole body.

No skill is required, and with this level of strength and speed, any attack is deadly.

"Wow, that's all there is to it, Saber!"

The fierce slash forced Saber to take a few steps back, and Naraku raised his greatsword in the air.

"Where's the energy from the time when I defeated my demon before, this is my salute, Nivelivesbladeworks!"

The sword technique used by Archer, the greatest hero of Greece, Hercules, imitated the sword technique used to shoot the hydra with a large sword, and although he had only seen it once, Naraku recreated it perfectly with the Giant's Ice Sword.

Sniper Position:

Forehead, cheeks, neck, mid-tan, left chest, right abdomen, thigh, left knee, calf.

A total of nine sword rays of light almost struck Saber, and every blow was a must-kill.

Bang –

With a long chime like a bell, Saber's petite body was blown away like a piece of paper.

Struggling to his feet, wiping the blood from his forehead, Saber regained his stance.

Blocked.

Although she didn't completely block it, she still relied on her instincts, superb skills, and fearless courage to carry this killer blow.

On the other hand, Archer was unable to join the battle directly due to the deterioration of the injuries he had suffered during the previous battle with Shirou.

[It's weird.] Archer stared at Naraku with a falcon-like gaze, wondering why Naraku didn't have the same dominance as he had seen before.

Although his speed and strength were very high, and the magic that emerged from his body did not diminish in the slightest, Archer just felt that Naraku's attacks were not as sharp as before.

Suddenly, he noticed that a cherry blossom-colored ball of magic light appeared in the sky at some point, and they didn't even notice it at all, maybe it was related to the ice arrow in the sky.

[What is that?] 】

Because he hadn't seen Rider destroyed, Archer didn't guess what the ball of light was for, but that didn't prevent Archer from understanding the danger of this ball of light, he didn't think that this kind of thing would appear on its own, so that means it was Naraku's hands and feet, and combined with Naraku's current performance, he wouldn't be naΓ―ve enough to think that Naraku made this magic ball of light just to look good.

[Now is not the time to think about this, no matter what it is, as long as you solve me, you'll be fine.] 】

Putting his uneasiness behind his head for a moment, Archer projected his bow and sword and aimed at Naraku.

β€œCaladbolgΒ· II (Pseudo Spiral Sword)! ”

The eerie sword traces a spiral-shaped trajectory towards Naraku.

However, halfway through, he was blocked by a wall of ice, and then, Naraku, who noticed Archer's small movements, used brute force to suppress Saber with brute force, and while holding Saber with brute force, he stretched out his left hand and clenched his fist at Archer, and the ice arrows in the sky fell like a raging storm.

β€œLOΒ· AIAS (Blazing Sevenfold Ring)! ”

Archer, who had been on guard for a long time, immediately projected an invincible shield, however, no matter how strong this shield was, it could only defend itself in one direction, and Naraku's arrows were coming from all directions, so naturally......

"Whew!"

Arrows from all directions turned Archer into a hedgehog, and if it weren't for Archer doing his best to protect his vital point so that the core and head were not injured, it is estimated that this blow would have been enough to return him to Valhalla...... No, it should be said that it was recycled by the Holy Grail, after all, this body is just a projection of the body.

β€œArcher!”

Seeing that Archer was injured, Rin immediately tried to get closer.

"Don't come here!"

But it was stopped by Archer.

[Damn...... If this continues, Saber won't have time to free the Noble Phantasm. 】

It takes a certain amount of time to liberate the Treasure, but if you are suppressed in melee combat, it is impossible to liberate the Treasure.

Naraku glanced at Archer, who was covering his wounds, and then said to Saber, "How? Do you want to fight? ”

"Of course!"

Saber said firmly.

"It's a nuisance." Naraku scratched his head in some distress, "Forget it, let's let you see the map cannon, it was originally intended to be used to attack other things, but I didn't expect you to be so stubborn." ”

Naraku threw away the Ice Greatsword in his hand and pointed at the sky with one hand, only then did Saber, Shirou, and Rin notice the sun-like collection of magic in the sky.

Not only that, but because it had already been discovered, Naraku no longer concealed it, and increased the speed of mana collection, and the space around him appeared one after another with cherry blossom-colored light, and was quickly absorbed by the cherry blossom-colored ball of light.

Like a meteor falling from the night sky, these faint points of light gather and the light of the ball of light becomes more and more intense.

At this moment, this ball of light emitted an unimaginably powerful oppressive force because of the huge amount of magic it had gathered, Archer's eyes widened in disbelief, and then he shouted desperately: "Saber! The ball must not be allowed to fall to the ground, otherwise it will be all over!! ”

"Ah, Ex-"

"Is it too late! StarlightBreaker !! ”

At the moment before Saber liberated the Treasure, Naraku's attack erupted, and the large pillar of light in the color of the cherry blossom attacked Saber, who was unable to move due to the liberation of the Treasure, and there was no more perfect direct attack than this.

"Huh?"

Naraku looked at Saber a little strangely, who was obviously under the attack of the torrent of cherry blossom-colored magic power, but still rushed forward regardless of the damage.

"Are you being beaten stupid Saber? It's possible that Starlight Burst will make the person who is hit behave well, but I don't remember any use for making people stupid. ”

Although taunting Saber, Naraku still felt a vague sense of unease.

[Could it be ............]

As Naraku thought, in the red stream of light, Saber shouted, "Avalon!" ”

The gorgeous sheath of the holy sword weaves a golden enchantment, which is a pure land that even the five great laws cannot interfere with and is independent of the world.

"Ex-calibur (Oath - Sword of Victory) !!"

The light is rushing.

The light is roaring.

The magic power was accelerated by the unfettered dragon factor, turning into a flash of light, and the bombardment from zero distance completely engulfed Naraku.
