Artoria's assault was extremely fast, but when the golden sword of victory and oath was about to stab Nero, the primordial fire in Nero's hand suddenly appeared in his attack path, and then directly received Artoria's blow with that dark red blade!

"Qiang ――――――!!!"

With a piercing sound of metal clashing, the primordial fire in Nero's hand slammed slightly, and then dissolved the powerful power contained in the Sword of Victory and Oath with a rapid tremor that even the Heroic Spirit's vision could not closely observe, and then suddenly turned into an arc of dark red streamer, slashing at Artoria who had just missed.

Swordsmanship (A+)* Block Counterattack!

This trick seems simple, but it is an extremely difficult swordsmanship skill.

Because, if it is for the weak, it is not much necessary, and in the face of the attack of the strong, if you want to successfully use this move, you must perfectly control the long sword in your hand, successfully unload the power of the opponent's long sword, and then seize the opportunity to directly counterattack the opponent's key point - if it is not for Nero who has special skills and genius characteristics, and is a heroic spirit, if you want to use this move or use it as a skill, you have to spend a long time practicing swordsmanship before you die, and then survive the long battle and comprehend swordsmanship, and then become a Heroic Spirit to gain this skill!

Now, because of his own characteristics, Nero used his sword (A+) skill to use this move, and even Artoria of the Saber rank successfully blocked it with all his strength, and then slashed at Artoria with a backhand swing of the primordial fire!

"Bell !!"

When Nero launched a parry counterattack and the form became unpalatable to Artoria, Artoria's complexion changed dramatically, and she suddenly spun half of her body and raised the sword of victory and oath in her hand.

Almost in the next moment, the roaring primordial fire slashed at the sword of victory and oath, and the A+-level primordial fire is obviously still a certain distance from the A++-level victory and oath sword in terms of material, and Nero's own strength has not reached the point of crushing Artoria, and this counterattack move was forcibly blocked!

Artoria, who reacted, stepped back, and then adjusted her posture and sword momentum, and then Artoria gasped slightly, looking at Nero in front of her with a complicated and inexplicable look.

"Tsk! That's good! The blue guy made Yu's enthusiasm and the idea of winning more and more high......"

Nero, who was looking at regret and excitement, also adjusted his posture, looking at Artoria in front of him, and the excitement in his tone was already a little inextricable.

As if sensing the excitement of his master, the primordial fire in Nero's hand became more and more dazzling, the primordial fire that had just emitted a faint dark red light, and the magic luster on it had even formed a substantial crimson magic flame, which looked even more dangerous than the primordial fire just now!

Nero's personal treasure, the Primordial Fire!!

As a treasure created by Nero for himself, the original fire has not spared no expense in materials, and has reached the point of A+, which makes most Heroic Spirit Treasures lose its color, and more importantly, it is completely in line with Nero's own usage habits.

In Nero's hands, the Primordial Fire can be seen as a Noble Phantasm that has been upgraded by a small rank, from an A+ rank Phantasm to an A++ rank Phantasm that can be compared to the Sword of Victory and Oath. And with Nero's own fighting spirit rising, the magic flame inspired by the primordial fire will become more and more powerful.

Now, the magic flame burning on the primordial fire in Nero's hand is not inferior to the ordinary A-grade magic in the world of "Shape Moon" according to its power, which is equivalent to an additional layer of additional magic fire damage!

"Nero, the tyrant! Get out of the way of !!."

Seeing the anomaly of the primordial fire in Nero's hand, Artoria's eyes, who had just avoided the result of being counter-killed, became solemn, and the golden sword of victory and oath in his hand was not hidden, and he shouted directly at Nero.

In Artoria's heart, the result of the failure of the assault just now and the fact that he was almost killed by someone did not hit the Dull Hair King...... I say the faith of the Knight King Artoria, and her words are still sonorous!

However, looking at Nero in front of him who was blocking his way, Artoria still had a trace of hesitation in her heart, even if she could defeat the other party with that move, but Li Yuan, who was stronger, was still watching the battle on the platform, is it really good to use the hole cards now? However, without the hole cards, Artoria even Nero seems to be unable to pass this level......

Artoria, who was entangled in her heart and couldn't make up her mind, the handful of golden silly hair on her forehead seemed to feel Artoria's mood, and she trembled from time to time to show her presence!

"Hah! Blue guy, do you really think Yu doesn't know the power of your treasure liberation?"

Seeing Artoria's tangled expression with a hint of determination, Nero whispered with a hint of a smile in his eyes, and then directly inserted the primordial fire in his hand into the ground, and made a gesture of raising his hands high.

"Build it! The rest of the sky!

Show the supreme light here!

Keep an eye on Yu Zhicai!

Hear the applause of Wan Lei!

With the glory of the rulers in your heart!

Bloom like a flower!

Let's open! The Golden Theatre !!"

Before Artoria could react, Nero directly shouted out the liberation words of his precious Phantasm.

With Nero's crisp and beautiful voice, a golden light emanated from Nero's feet and spread out to the surroundings, instantly involving Artoria and Li Yuan, Alice Phil and others who were watching the battle.

In just the next moment, the ancient castle and the surrounding forest and meadow environment in the middle of the night directly turned into a gorgeous and unusual ancient Roman-style theater!

In the grand theater, where the diameter is measured in kilometers, Nero stands on a stage with a diameter of 100 meters in the center, wearing a red dance dress and looking around, like a stage master about to appear, standing on the stage and looking at Artoria, Li Yuan and Alice Phil.

"This—this is ...... Intrinsic Barrier ?!!"

Seeing that she suddenly appeared on the seat of the Grand Theater, Alice Fair, who had just been paying close attention to Artoria, finally recognized what the "Golden Theater of Swing" was, and her eyes were full of disbelief.

Intrinsic Enchantment!

In the world of "Moon", if the "magic" connected to the "root" is almost something that can only appear in legends, then the "inherent enchantment" is the culmination that magicians can achieve!

In the Einzbelen family, Alice Phil received a magical education, and the existence of "inherent enchantment" can be called the ultimate mystery of magic. For all magicians, only those powerful magicians who have almost reached the top of magic and are close to magic can have a powerful hole card called "inherent enchantment".

Strictly speaking, "inherent enchantments" are subspecies of utopian manifestations, in which powerful magicians or strong people turn their mental worlds into entities to replace the real world and create their own worlds. However, the only difference from the fantasy embodiment is that the inherent enchantment in the world of "Moon" cannot change the world by utopian embodiment magic such as projection magic, and the inherent enchantment formed by it reflects the deepest existence in the user's heart, and it is impossible to change its formation and composition according to the user's thoughts.

Even with such restrictions, the inherent enchantment is an extremely rare hole card, this kind of powerful hole card that can only be possessed by standing at the top of the magician, even if Alice Phil learned at the Einzberen house, she has only heard of it!

Of course, Alice Phil, whose eyes are wide now, doesn't know that although Nero's "Golden Theater of Swagger" looks similar to the inherent enchantment, it is only because of the obsession of becoming a Heroic Spirit and the privilege of the EX-level emperor that it is cast, and there is still a little difference between it and the inherent enchantment that a real top magician relies on his own ability......

"Oh, Nero has taken out his hole cards! It seems that she definitely doesn't want to lose!"

Listening to Alice Phil's words, Li Yuan on the side looked at the situation of the "Golden Theater of Swings", and his tone sighed a little.

Obviously, after Nero learned about Artoria's Noble Phantasm and combat power information from Li Yuan, of course he would not stupidly wait for Artoria to use his hole cards and liberate his Noble Phantasm first!

Of course, it can also be understood that Nero's desire for victory with Artoria, after all, the two people are indeed too similar, and Nero has also said in front of Li Yuan many times that he likes Saber, the strongest Holy Grail War rank, and now facing Artoria who came with Saber's rank, it is a lie to say that he does not want to win......

……

Compared with the audience mentality of Li Yuan and Alice Phil (several android maids have been sent to the subspace to rest), Artoria in the Golden Theater has become extremely serious, and her eyes are cautious when she looks at Nero.

Artoria wasn't uninformed, of course, but the inherent enchantment that Nero had cast still made her feel pressured!

Because, this kind of inherent enchantment possessed by a single person has never even been experienced by Artoria before, even if it is the Merlin Grand (Crab) Mage before his death, his inherent enchantment has only been seen by the lake elves, and it is completely different from the "golden theater of swagger" that Nero has now cast!

"Blue guy, surrender obediently!

This is a theater designed by Yu himself, and no one can beat Yu here~!"

When Li Yuan, Alice Phil and Artoria were surprised or wary of the "swaggering Golden Theater", Nero, who was standing in the center of the Golden Theater, shouted unceremoniously to Artoria standing on the edge of the stage.

At this time, whether it was Artoria, who was facing Nero, or Li Yuan and Alice Field, they all noticed that in Nero's hand, the A+ grade Noble Phantasm Primordial Fire had disappeared, and Nero himself was only wearing the red dance dress, and there were no other treasures and weapons on his body.

Nero himself looked like a dance artist on stage, rather than a beautiful swordsman who had just fought Saber rank Artoria with the Primordial Fire......

"Nero, the tyrant! Get out of the way of !!."

At this time, Artoria didn't have time to think about it, even though her [Intuition] skill kept warning her, but Artoria directly pointed at Nero with the sword of victory and oath in her hand and shouted.

At the same time, the golden light on the sword of victory and oath in Artoria's hand began to brighten, like the light of the dawn - it was clear that in the face of Nero's "golden theater of swagger", Artoria was now determined to completely free her Noble Phantasm to defeat Nero!

After all, Nero has used the ultimate move of the inherent enchantment, and if Artoria doesn't want to fail, it makes sense to use her hole cards to defeat Nero first. As for Li Yuan? Well, if she can't get through this level now, Artoria doesn't know what the use of keeping her hole cards is, so she might as well beat Nero first and then think about other things......

However, what Artoria didn't know was that it was too late for her to liberate the Noble Phantasm!

"Yo? Blue guy, what a violent! However, this is Yu's stage......"

Seeing that Artoria seemed to be about to make a big move, Nero did not have the slightest expression of fear, but looked at Artoria with a strange gaze mixed with banter and chant, and then said in a poetic tone: "In the Yu Theater, only the audience and the actors are not allowed to carry weapons!"

Swish!

As soon as Nero's words fell, the sword of victory and oath in Artoria's hand disappeared in an instant, and even the biological armor that Li Yuan had just worn disappeared temporarily.

- Thankfully, Li Yuan was able to sense the presence of the Biological Warframe, and was sure that the Biological Warframe would still be able to repack if Li Yuan needed it. Li Yuan also understands that the declaration in Nero's mouth now is like an order to the "Golden Theater of Swagger", and it has briefly become the law in this Golden Theater!

In contrast, Artoria couldn't be as calm as Li Yuan, and even had the mood to study the situation related to the "Golden Theater of Swagger", but looked at her empty hands a little overwhelmed.

"This, this ......"

Artoria looked at the empty hands in front of her, muttered in disbelief, and then tried to reach out and grope in the void, but the result was undoubtedly empty.

As a portable Noble Phantasm that accompanied Artoria after becoming a Heroic Spirit, the connection between the Sword of Victory and Oath and Artoria is extremely close, but Artoria can only feel the existence of the Sword of Victory and Oath now, but she can't summon her own Noble Phantasm into her hand, so how can she fight?

"Hah! Didn't you hear? Blue guy, in the Yu Theater, people are not allowed to carry weapons~!"

Seeing Artoria's dumbfounded expression, the smile on the corner of Nero's mouth became more and more obvious.

Of course, what Nero didn't tell Artoria was that the ability of the "Golden Theater of Tricks" was powerful, but there were also many corresponding limitations, for example, it was not only Artoria and Li Yuan who were temporarily removed from their weapons......

"Abominable !!"

Nero's words made Artoria's face sink, but then she shouted directly, and then Artoria, who clenched her hands into fists, rushed directly towards Nero.

Even after losing the connection between victory and the Sword of Oath, and now trapped in Nero's enchantment "Stirring Golden Theater", Artoria still did not give up her efforts, even now with her bare hands, Artoria still launched an attack on Nero, trying to win the slightest hope of victory!

However, Artoria had just rushed out of a few steps before she found that her body suddenly became unable to move? And the whole person is surrounded by an invisible force

"Na Na, this can't be done~! The blue guy, Yu just made an oath that actors are not allowed to use force in the theater, and they must fight with the audience's voice in an artistic way!

Yu Zhi's constraints, this performance must be performed by dance and song, Yu and you are both actors in this scene, no one is allowed to bypass Yu and go directly to the stage until Yu changes the rules, let alone fight on the stage, even if you are a knight king of the Saber rank, you can't !!"

Seeing Artoria's shocked eyes, Nero explained the rules with a smug smile.

There is no doubt that Nero's "Golden Theater of Swagger" is quite a trick with the inherent rules of enchantment, at least for Nero, who has been prepared for a long time, he can choose the rules and conditions that are most favorable to him, and forbid Artoria to use the Noble Phantasm, so that Nero can use the rules that Nero is good at to fight later.

At the very least, looking at Artoria's jaw-dropping expression, you can understand that His Excellency the Knight King has not been trained in dance and song at all, and the prospects for this kind of duel are really not very good!

"So, come out, audience!

You will judge the winner, and the loser will be sealed with one of his strongest Phantasms until the winner allows it to be used again or until the effect is over!!"

Looking at Artoria's expression, Nero directly made a ritual from the ancient Roman era and declared it loudly.

"Oh!!"

"We've been waiting for a long time!"

"Let's get started!" ……

When Nero made that etiquette, in the audience of the "Golden Theater of Swagger", which was empty only for Li Yuan and Alice Field, an audience member dressed in ancient Roman clothes appeared, and began to make noise and even shouted at Nero and Artoria on the stage.

At the same time, the stage also appeared with band members holding ancient Roman instruments, and under the dance of beautiful girls in gorgeous costumes, the foreshadowing and atmosphere before Nero's performance began, and the scene of the entire theater looked unusually grand and lively.

When Nero stepped into the center of the stage with a smile on her face and began to dance like a flame on the stage to the beat of the stirring music, Artoria had a dull and dazed expression......

……

Ten minutes later, Einzbellen's family was in the castle of Fuyuki City.

Just after activating the inherent enchantment, Nero, Li Yuan, Artoria, and Alice Phil, who suddenly disappeared, reappeared in the same place, and the situation was a little different from just now.

Artoria, who originally held the sword of victory and the sword of the oath, was now dejected and was carried by Nero with a translucent chain, while Alice Fell looked at her "knight" with a worried face, and Li Yuan gave Nero a thumbs up before turning his head and getting in touch with Medea in Liudong Temple.

"OK! Medea, the operation was successful! Initiate a space transfer and let's go back!"

Li Yuan, who had just enjoyed a good song and dance, was in a very good mood, looking at Artoria, who seemed to be psychologically hit and listless, and Nero on the side, he directly contacted Medea in Liudong Temple.

Although Li Yuan did not make a move with my king, it is acceptable for Nero to take Artoria alone, and Alice Phil, who is a "little chalice" and implanted with the spirit costume of "Ideal Country Far from the World", has also been controlled, so of course Li Yuan does not need to stay here in Einzberen Castle for long!

"Understood! Li Yuan, get a little closer, and I'll immediately launch the Spatial Transfer Technique!"

Hearing Li Yuan's words, Medea, who was waiting in Liudong Temple, also quickly replied.

Just ten seconds later, when an item that looked like a bracelet in Li Yuan's hand glowed, Nero, Alice Phil, and Artoria, who were staying with Li Yuan as the center, disappeared in place together, leaving only the empty Einzberen Castle and several Assassin splits that were slowly dissipating......
