Melusine, upon sensing a magical power being gathered by the young girl before her, also immediately released her complete form. Her dragon's premonition was constantly warning her that the attack this young girl was about to launch today could very well have an unimaginable impact on her. Therefore, Melusine also decided to use her own heartbeat pulse to clash with it.
The pulse of a dragon is unstoppable!!
"Open, O door!"
The eye on Abby's forehead emitted a dazzling light, followed by the girl's pious whisper.
"Ygnaiih... ygnaiih... thflthkh'ngha. In my hand, I hold the Silver Key. Manifest from the void, touch it with your fingertips, O my Father God. I shall become the worldly body that houses your divine essence. Cross the rosy slumber and reach the ultimate gate! [Qliphoth Rhizome: The Hollow Tree that Overflows with Light Shells]!"
A large number of tentacles swirled towards her. Melusine also quickly broke through the gate of light. It was rare for this speed to be able to create a clear distance in this strange space.
"Magical energy rising within the body, mana release! This name is Albion! The last dragon, who opens the boundary! From Geoffrey to Fromond—show the years! The decaying light of the lake!"
Like a spear, it burst outwards, clashing with those strange tentacles. The dragon's pulse was constantly tearing at those tentacles, while the tentacles that had emerged from the endless void were also constantly, from all directions, following Abby's senses, trying to completely twist the dragon in that void world.
Abby, standing in the shattered starry sky, gritted her teeth. She discovered that such an attack seemed unable to deal with this non-human creature that had stepped into her world. Since that was the case, then she would just pull her into the world of dreams as well. As long as she was forever immersed in the dream, then it was no different from being dead.
And so, Abby once again pulled back a certain distance. A staircase appeared under her feet. "Within my womb is the Silver Key... from the unclean garden! On the other side of the 'Gate of Slumber,' what descends is the Dreamlands. The disastrous demonic city, the secret, severe cold wilderness, the lone peak of the foreign god, the unknown, ultimate peak! Once visited, one cannot leave. The distant...!!"
It was just that this time, the words from Abby's mouth were not yet finished when a silver spear broke through from a distance, cut across this endless space, directly shattering the layers of stairs, and at the same time, a mecha burning with raging fire charged towards Abby.
A mecha summoned as a Heroic Spirit was an existence like a split spirit, different from a real mecha. Therefore, even if it was destroyed, there was nothing to worry about. Anyway, when the Heroic Spirit was summoned again, these mecha could be summoned again in their full glory.
From the moment Aslan had entered this Hanging Gardens, and had even seen Abby preparing to use her Noble Phantasm, the ending of this elemental mecha had basically already been determined. It was, of course, to walk the path that the former Supreme Masterpiece had walked as a Heroic Spirit's Noble Phantasm.
Perhaps the elemental spirit within the elemental mecha would feel that this master was so cold and heartless. But if Estée Lauder were to learn that the former Supreme Masterpiece had also walked such a path, then she might gladly let the elemental mecha self-destruct. It couldn't be helped. Estée Lauder could be considered a fan of Aslan. And precisely because she was a fan of Aslan, there should be no problem with her walking Aslan's old path, right?
Most importantly, after becoming a Heroic Spirit, she could freely detonate these mecha without affecting her own self on the Throne of Heroes. This was a rare experience. At least for Aslan, ever since he had detonated his own Supreme Masterpiece in the former Sixth Singularity, he had inexplicably felt a strange thrill in blowing up mecha. It was the same feeling as watching Arash use his "Stella" over and over again.
Even though he knew it was wrong, even though he would surely feel that subtle sense of guilt when people talked about it, that strange thrill and excitement was something that made one want to experience it again and again!
Although the one being blown up this time was not his own Supreme Masterpiece, the one being blown up was a high-level mecha. This was enough to make one feel happy. Ah... not really happy, just that kind of feeling of pent-up pressure finally being completely released.
The fire elemental mecha charged directly to Abigail's side, and at the same time, directly hugged her body.
Aslan understood that the Abigail before him was not the little girl he had seen in the game. How should he put it? Although they were the same person, they were not the same person. At least in the current Holy Grail War, they were enemies. Therefore, he could not choose to let her go just because the little girl was cute. If he let Abby continue to influence this world, this world would be in danger. It was a rare occasion for him to have traveled in this world. More or less, he also wanted to do something for this world. More or less, it was also the work of that "knight" side of him.
"To fight against the enemy, sacrifice is necessary. The time has come. Self-destruct right there! [Elemental Mecha - Fire]! Directive! Self-destruct!"
The elemental mecha held the young girl in its arms a little tighter. Then, the entire mecha's core began to rapidly ignite with fire. Then, like a sun erupting from the core, if the individual mecha rank of an elemental mecha was A-rank, then its self-destruction could reach A++ rank or above. In terms of pure explosive destructive power, it was probably a little bit stronger than Artoria's Sword of Promised Victory.
Aslan hoped to directly use the power of this explosion to end Abigail's manifestation this time.
It was just that very quickly, Aslan's thoughts were shattered by the tentacles that appeared in the entire space. This area was Abigail's area, and also the area of that Outer God. Therefore, it was normal for it to have a bit more power to protect its own key.
Aslan reached out his hand and recalled the holy spear that had destroyed the staircase. He then put the holy spear away with one hand, held the holy sword in the other, and at the same time, glanced at Melusine.
The white-haired dragon girl immediately understood Aslan's meaning. This time, she had to cooperate with him again. He was afraid that only the two of them working together could forcibly make this girl, who was favored by the Outer God, make her exit!
And on the other side, the area enveloped by the tentacles also slowly opened, revealing a young girl who was somewhat different from what was imagined. Basically, half of her body had turned into an existence like this starry sky. The constantly scattering fragments turned into a seven-colored light. The purple eye in the keyhole on her forehead widened, becoming even more eerie.
Then, the young girl lifted her head. "I'll kill you~"
