Stepping on armants, wielding a flaming greatsword, Shirou flew, shouting loudly, "Karna!"
"Clang!"
The divine spear and divine sword collided. A crisp sound echoed in the ears of those nearby. The clash of flas ignited a special reaction, causing an instant explosion where the two intertwined. Propelled by the fiery blast, Shirou and Karna both landed on the ground.
This was their first direct confrontation. However, even
before this, both had harbored a desire to kill the other.
For this was the fate of Servants, and their ultimate pursuit. This man must die by my hand! Shirou and Karna both thought so. The next mont, both stomped their feet fiercely, charging towards their enemy. Spear and sword collided once more.
But this was just the beginning. With this as the catalyst, their battle instantly escalated into a heated frenzy. Although in terms of martial arts, Shirou's swordsmanship was not yet comparable to Karna's spearmanship, what he lacked in quality, he made up for in quantity! As Shirou's sword danced, surrounding armants also joined the offensive. Karna faced far more than just the sword in Shirou's hand. Continuously wielding his spear, while deflecting Shirou's slashes, Karna also had to deflect the constantly attacking flying swords. This forced Karna, who should have been the suppressor, into a suppressed situation.
"What a brilliant battle strategy!"
"Thanks for the complint!"
"But I won't give up so easily!" As Karna's words fell, his body was suddenly enveloped in surging flas, continuously releasing heat outwards. Under this terrifying magical energy release, the armants that had been shot towards Karna were instantly blown away. But the very next mont, Shirou, from the opposite side, actually endured the flas and charged in.
"Can he really be immune to fire damage?" Karna instantly saw through Shirou's state. But even so, there was no panic in his heart. No matter how unfavorable the situation, it could not stop his power. Firmly catching Shirou's slash, Karna imdiately began his counterattack. Even if his strength was far inferior to Shirou's, what did that matter! Martial arts were originally ant for the weak to fight the strong. This flaw, he could perfectly compensate for!
"Co on!"
"Clang!" With Karna's roar, Shirou and his battle were no longer confined to the ground. Propelled by jets of fla, Karna continuously glided through the air. And Shirou also pursued relentlessly, stepping on armants. Thus, the two fought from the ground to the sky, and then from the sky back to the ground. Explosions continuously echoed from their hands. But neither had any thought of dodging; the impact from the explosions could not harm
them at all.
But just as the two were fighting most intensely, a violent surge of magical energy caught their attention.
What followed was a sharp cry: "Arrow of Complaint!"
________________________________________
Atalanta was busy. While looking for opportunities to ambush Shirou, she also had to support her Master. And this Master was soone she had previously wished to kill. This was very distressing for her. But she had no choice but to do so, because Amakusa Shirou Tokisada's safety now concerned the very existence of their entire Red Faction. She could not let him die like this. So, even if she was unwilling, she could only do so.
But now, she was completely held back by the battle here. Because if she didn't provide support, her Master would probably be finished soon. The reason for this, of course, was that the three of them were simply too weak!
Avicebron, as a Caster, was originally not good at close combat, and when Shirou pulled him in, he didn't bring his Golems with him. As for Semiramis, whether she was in the Hanging Gardens or not had a significant impact on her combat power. Her reliance on the Hanging Gardens exceeded Vlad III's reliance on Romania.
Therefore, her remaining combat power at this mont was not much. This ant that the only main combat mber among the three was actually the Master, Amakusa Shirou Tokisada. Although Amakusa Shirou Tokisada was formidable and had two support mbers, he couldn't stand against opponents who were too strong!
Both Chiron and Jeanne were first-rate Servants.
Amakusa Shirou Tokisada being able to hold on until now against them was already impressive. And this was only because of Atalanta's occasional arrow support; otherwise, the three of them would have collapsed even faster. But now, they were almost unable to hold on!
Looking at Amakusa Shirou Tokisada, who was desperately holding on, and the constantly flying armants around him, Atalanta, frustrated and exasperated, finally unleashed her Noble Phantasm.
"By my bow, I request the protection of the sun god and moon goddess."
"Offer up this disaster!"
"Arrow of Complaint!"
As two arrows soared into the sky, what followed was an endless rain of arrows. This ti, Atalanta's attack range was vast, not only encompassing Amakusa Shirou Tokisada's battlefield but also not neglecting Shirou's side. This strike attacked everyone.
________________________________________
Aided by the shockwave of the explosion, Shirou and Karna both landed on the ground. Already brimming with fighting spirit, the two saw no one but each other. In their eyes, fighting intent burned fiercely like flas.
Above their heads, Atalanta's arrows of light
continuously rained down like raindrops, but the two enveloped within showed no movent to dodge. For they were both searching for the other's opening. If either of them showed any slack, the other would swiftly seize the initiative.
Thus, Shirou and Karna faced Atalanta's Noble Phantasm without dodging, enduring it with their bodies. Arrows of light continuously struck them, but could hardly cause any effective damage. Neither Shirou's Dragon-Blood Armor nor Karna's Armor of the Sun could be penetrated by Atalanta's Noble Phantasm.
Seeing the two take her Noble Phantasm head-on and erge unscathed, even Atalanta, who lacked a sense of honor, was furious. But just as she was about to unleash a charged arrow in anger at Shirou. The two, who had been unmoving below, suddenly made their move. Karna suddenly raised his spear high, the tip pointed at Shirou.
And Shirou abandoned his longsword, re-projecting a longbow and arrow, imdiately drawing the bowstring, aiming at Karna before him.
As a top-tier archer, Atalanta instantly sensed the terrifying magical energy contained within the arrow in Shirou's hand. And as the one who had previously assisted Karna in his plan, she also clearly understood the other party's intention.
"Rider, protect the Master, those two are going to clash Noble Phantasms!"
"Understood!" Out of trust for Atalanta, Achilles instantly drove his chariot towards Amakusa Shirou Tokisada.
And the very next mont, two soft shouts reached everyone's ears.
"Brahma, Curse My Body!"
"Super Imaginary Collapse!"
The demonic sword Shirou shot at this mont was an arrow he ticulously crafted after becoming LV.6. It was for his showdown with Karna! With their shouts, Karna's thrown spear and Shirou's arrow rapidly collided in mid-air. The next mont, a gigantic fireball violently expanded, engulfing everything within the Unlimited Blade Works.
"This is?!" Looking at the colossal fireball rushing towards her, Jeanne imdiately raised her flag, intending to unleash her Noble Phantasm. But at that mont, Shirou suddenly appeared beside her and Chiron.
"Grab , we're leaving!"
"Eh!" Before the two could reply, Shirou imdiately dispelled the Unlimited Blade Works. Then, he transferred all the Servants and the explosion out of the Unlimited Blade Works.
"This is?!" Looking at everyone who had suddenly returned, Amakusa Shirou Tokisada, who had been taken onto Achilles's chariot, imdiately sensed the danger.
This place was too close to the Greater Holy Grail!
"In the na of the Command Spell, Achilles, fully unleash your Noble Phantasm 'Andreias Amarantos' to protect the Greater Holy Grail!"
"Understood!" Achilles also knew the urgency of the
situation. Under the enhancent of the Command Spell, he instantly appeared before the Greater Holy Grail.
"Andreias Amarantos!"
