[ You killed Lancer - Diarmuid Ua Duibhne ]
[ You obtained Diarmuid Ua Duibhne's treasure chest ]
[ Your mission - The Eighth Servant That Shouldn't Exist has increased in completion ]
As Medusa severed Diarmuid Ua Duibhne's head, three Paradise prompts sounded simultaneously, like an emperor personally leading his troops on an ancient battlefield!
With just this single blow, Diarmuid Ua Duibhne was severed from his connection to the Corrupted Holy Grail, returning to the underworld under the legend of the [ Immortal-Slaying Blade ]!
"Absolutely not!"
Before Kisaragi Rin could even provoke him, EMIYA had already let out an incredulous roar.
In his perception, the Corrupted Holy Grail, which had originally maintained its stability, suddenly lost a corner, and surging magic power was eager to escape through this gap!
"I must retrieve Diarmuid Ua Duibhne's soul!"
Without daring to think further, several sword-type Noble Phantasms were already unleashed towards Kisaragi Rin, with EMIYA arriving simultaneously; he wanted to retrieve the deceased Diarmuid Ua Duibhne and stuff him back into the Corrupted Holy Grail!
However, he wasn't the only one on the battlefield!
With a wave of Medea's Demonic Hell Sanctuary, layers of shadows carried away Diarmuid Ua Duibhne's soul!
Due to the special nature of Heroic Spirits, deceased Heroic Spirits will dissipate without leaving a corpse; only that remnant soul will temporarily remain, returning to the Holy Grail, awaiting the remnant souls of the six Heroic Spirits to form a complete Holy Grail…
"I'll take it first."
Medea said unceremoniously.
To prevent EMIYA from returning Diarmuid Ua Duibhne's remnant soul to the Corrupted Holy Grail for resurrection, Medea had long been holding the [ Demonic Hell Sanctuary ], waiting for this moment.
"Damn it!"
Sensing the change in the Corrupted Holy Grail, EMIYA was already struggling to control his blackened emotions.
But for a moment, he had no solution, because among the Heroic Spirits present, only he had a modicum of sanity.
While Heroic Spirits without sanity are good at fighting, they are completely incapable of micro-managing!
Stopping his impulsive charge, EMIYA took a deep breath and asked, "Can we negotiate?"
As soon as he said this, before Kisaragi Rin could even laugh, EMIYA himself could no longer suppress his shame.
You don't want to negotiate; you just realized you can't win!
"Do you think that's possible?"
Kisaragi Rin sneered.
The so-called inevitable battle was never just EMIYA's personal factor.
The reason?
Hadn't Paradise already made it clear?
Killing a Heroic Spirit who shouldn't appear in this Holy Grail War would earn a reward.
So direct! So tempting!
While EMIYA didn't trust Kisaragi Rin, how could Kisaragi Rin not crave the rewards on EMIYA's body!
"In a sense, I am indeed as you imagine, a hyena of Paradise."
So-called kindness is something that can only be done when it does not hinder one's own interests.
You say the people of Fuyuki City will die?
Then I will take away, and only take away, the few I care about.
As for everyone else?
"Having lived in this world for eighteen years and seen a month's worth of Paradise's light, I, Kisaragi, have never considered myself a good person."
Yukinoshita Yukino stood beside Kisaragi Rin, and she also knew this point.
However, Yukinoshita Yukino had no intention of dissuading Kisaragi Rin; her utmost benevolence would only be practiced by herself, and kidnapping others was not something she would do.
It was precisely because of this that Kisaragi Rin was willing to call her truly benevolent, and only then could she and Yukinoshita Yukino become friends, a fact she was unwilling to admit.
There was even less need to mention the other Heroic Spirits.
Even Saber, when she walked the path of a king, did not kill fewer enemy troops.
"EMIYA, if the benefit of you living cannot exceed the reward of killing you, it's better for you to end it sooner."
As Kisaragi Rin thought this to himself, Medusa had already charged forward again.
Kisaragi Rin's rejection was so clear that EMIYA gritted his teeth, and facing the incoming Medusa, EMIYA instantly projected hundreds of Noble Phantasms.
The blade was curved, like a scythe, precisely the [ Immortal-Slaying Blade ] in Medusa's hand!
In Greek mythology, the hero Perseus used this sword to cut off the head of the sleeping Medusa.
While the [ Immortal-Slaying Blade ] possesses the ability to cut down all immortality, it also has absolute counter-effectiveness against Medusa, meaning a special attack exists!
Hundreds of projected [ Pseudo-Immortal-Slaying Blade ] surrounded the surrounding space, vibrating with each other to complete their release, and a sense of panic unconsciously appeared in Medusa's heart; that was the inevitability of legend!
"However, the current me is not merely Medusa herself!"
Ignoring the fear in her soul, Medusa showed no sign of stopping her charge.
Relying on her A+ rank Riding Skill, the [ Pegasus ] beneath her seemed to have transformed into Medusa herself.
Space became a plain, the sound of breaking barriers was the horn of charge, and magic power was the accompanying airflow!
With the momentum of a falling meteor, aided by [ Pegasus ], Medusa charged like a heavenly soldier, launching a fierce assault on the human demon!
"You think you can break through the special attack?"
Surging magic power also surged through EMIYA's body, his skin like tempered steel, changing from its original brown to fiery red.
This was because as Medusa charged, her A++ rank Mystic Eye, [ Cybele ], simultaneously began to Lock-on.
To prevent himself from being paralyzed, EMIYA could only continuously use stronger magic power to impact his body, thereby breaking the restraint of [ Cybele ].
Hundreds, even more, [ Pseudo-Immortal-Slaying Blade ] were continuously projected, so many Noble Phantasm releases that the magic power in the air was about to turn into viscous rain.
In EMIYA's plan, these [ Pseudo-Immortal-Slaying Blade ] would cause considerable damage to the charging Medusa, and he himself would be instantly withdrawn from the battlefield by Emiya Shirou under the connection of the Corrupted Holy Grail.
However, the next moment, what this space welcomed was not a charge, but a terrifying roar!
EMIYA's thoughts paused.
"No, you actually believed that?"
"Knowing there's a special attack and I still charge forward, am I some hot-blooded protagonist?"
Medusa, who had originally looked serious, suddenly smiled shyly, and behind her, Gorgon's phantom suddenly opened several snake mouths.
Inherent Skill - Scream of Fear - A++: A roar born from the innate fear of living beings. Inflicts terror on all enemies, continuously lowers defense, instantly greatly lowers defense, inflicts curse status, etc.
Under this A++ rank [ Scream of Fear ], there was also Medusa's shining A++ rank Mystic Eye, [ Cybele ].
When two absolute controls arrived simultaneously, even with the magic power blessing of the Corrupted Holy Grail, EMIYA's thinking ability inevitably paused for a moment.
Moreover, this roar filled with fear naturally had no teammate protection mechanism; not only EMIYA, but other Heroic Spirits were also affected.
Of course… this did not include Esdeath.
The inherent Skill named [ Blood of the Ice Demon God ] made Esdeath immune to all negative effects, and her resistance to control methods was also quite high.
"I am not merely Medusa… I also have several companions!"
When the opportunity arose, the battlefield shifted accordingly!
Like a swift dividing the sea in lightning and thunder, [ Pegasus ] carried Medusa, completing a magnificent change of direction!
Accelerate and accelerate!
Charging towards Gilgamesh!
Esdeath, who had been entangled with Gilgamesh, simultaneously turned her body, and a pair of wide wings unfolded from the sides of her [ Noble War Chariot ] armor.
Like an emperor's angel, mixed with the divine punishment of impending winter, she descended towards EMIYA!
Extinguishing the burst of magic power with absolute low temperature!
