Chapter 87: Battles.
The golden light crossed the sky of Fuyuki quickly and arrived above the battle in the mountain range. The light that represented the tower of the end and the anchor of the planet was shining brightly on all the fighters.
Alcides, who was suppressed by Gilgamesh's divine Noble Phantasms, raised his head as he channeled the mana to his feet and tried to back away, but he knew that was useless because of the range of attack. The light beam was aiming at the whole mountain range, it even made the space solidified because of its stabilizing power as it didn't leave much hope to escape, even with teleportation.
Lizard, who was in his river of blood form, stared at the beam before he started to leak into the ground in an attempt to avoid a lot of damage. The light of the beam was already hurting him because of its holy properties, but this didn't stop him from his last action as a part of the river moved towards Alcides.
Pale Rider had the same reaction as Lizard because of the light. As a curse, he isn't fine with the holy attribute as his fog was boiling. Suddenly, some light flashed on him, but it died quickly. That was Pale Rider's master trying to summon him, but it seems that the beam user is determined to make some servants exit the war now.
Gilgamesh and Enkidu raised their heads at the same time as their mana was raising. They both know that getting a direct hit by this beam is a game over as they didn't hesitate.
Drawing the mana from the surroundings, Enkidu forced his Noble Phantasm to be activated quickly. Gilgamesh was in the same condition as he gathered the mana from all the Noble Phantasm he previously threw before he used all of them on EA. The sword was rotating as the red storm was distorting the world around him.
"ENUMA ELISH!!!" Both Enkidu and Gilgamesh used their Noble Phantasm. A red storm and chains rushed towards the beam, but because of the quick activation, they were weaker. However, it's enough to not be killed directly.
The beam was rotating above the sky as it met with the storm and chains before an explosion occurred on the mountain range.
*BOOOOOOOOOOOOM!!!*
A blinding light filled the sky as the storm and chains tried to stop the beam, but it was useless except weakening it in Enkidu and Gilgamesh direction before it hit the ground.
On that day, a pillar of light shone on Japan, as the tower of the end destroyed, yet fixed everything around it, except the enemy.
*BOOOOOOOOOOOOM!!!*
Gilgamesh fell down from Vimana as the ship was destroyed because of the beam. He wasn't able to keep his balance, even his treasures were destroyed, But at least, they were able to do their job and protect him.
Enkidu used the forest around as a shield, but in the end, he was still blown with his master away as he took a slight damage.
The river of blood was evaporating as a large part of it was lost in moments, however, Lizard didn't flinch even if he felt that thousands of his lives were disappearing like nothing as he reached his servant.
Pale Rider was the most unlucky as he took the beam to the face and melted like snow in the summer, without any struggle, even if he doesn't know pain. Pale Rider vanished from this world under the pillar of light.
Alcides was also in a bad situation as he used all his power to protect himself, but he couldn't stop the beam. His cloth couldn't stop the beam because it isn't something from human origin and his arrows vanished like nothing.
Even so, Alcides continued to struggle. He used his Noble Phantasm to lower the beam power, but suddenly, he fell into the river of blood as he felt his spirit core was melting. At that moment, anger filled his face because he was betrayed, but he couldn't do anything as he lost all his feelings before disappearing. Alcides exited the war because he was betrayed by his master.
The pillar of light died down as it left light spots in the air and a huge pothole in the mountain range telling about what happened, but even so, this area now was the most stable in the whole world for the moment.
Leo on top of his mansion, stared at the mountain range as he lowered his lance slowly before he said " Did you think you'll have a fair fight? Or maybe a legendary battle where you put everything before leaving? Think again"
"Well, it was a double kill. I wish to shoot again, but my reserves of mana are in a critical condition" Leo shook his head in disappointment as he slightly moved the lance in his hand. The golden grains of light was still circling around Leo as it made a beautiful picture with the snow from the sky.
Although he still can shoot one or two times, but for Leo, the critical condition means when he can't fight Solomon if he suddenly shows up, so he prefers to keep his mana at a certain limit.
{What the hell what that?! Do you want to give me a heart attack?!} Suddenly, Leo heard Merlin's voice in his head.
{Hm? Why?} Leo asked before Merlin exploded again {I thought that goddess came here!! The first thing that she'll do is to impale and stab me without mercy!! She would even attack Avalon with Rhongomyniad if necessary}
{That looks like your problem to me. Now, did you get that Caster's avatar?} Leo said as he didn't care about Merlin inner fears from Lancer Artoria.
{Yeah, I got it} Merlin said as he stabbed Medea to the chest as she had a shocked expression. He didn't wait for any reaction before he waved Excalibur again and tore her avatar to pieces.
Medea's avatar didn't know what hit her until she felt the pain in her chest, but that was too late as Merlin gathered the mana from the avatar, which he'll use to detect her location in the future before he said " Third-rate Caster dare to challenge a Grand candidate? Tell me a better joke, she can't even solo a Saber in melee"
"AAAAAAAAARRRTHUUUUUUUUURRRRR!!!!!" Lancelot screamed with madness as he looked at the pillar of light until it disappeared from his sight. Although he's still fighting Cu, he didn't give him any attention except letting his body and instinct do the job.
"OI!! You bastard!!" Cu was finally enraged by looking at Lancelot ignoring him completely before he grabbed his spear and took a stabbing position.
Veins appeared on Cu's head as the mana was rushing towards Gàe Bolg as it glowed red before wind pushed everything away from him.
"Gàe Bolg!!" Because of the constant ignoring, Cu was very mad that he rushed directly with his Noble Phantasm. A red beam shot from the spear as it moved in the air before attacking Lancelot.
Lancelot didn't move a lot as he used his sword to block the spear and it was easy as he defended himself perfectly without receiving damage, but Cu grinned. The picture stopped like it was being paused before everything changed.
*PFFFF!!*
With the sound of flesh getting pierced, Cu's spear stabbed Lancelot in the heart before he raised him and threw him away at the river shore.
Cu's Noble Phantasm allows him to reverse causality, which makes him always hit the opponent's heart. Also, the spear is cursed in a way that makes the wounds it caused become very hard to heal as long as the spear remains in the world.
*BOOOOOOM!!!*
Lancelot hit the ground as he tried to stand up, but he couldn't, even if he was a mad warrior. Cu attack hit his heart and spirit core, which made him officially out of the holy grail war, if some miracle didn't happen, then nothing will save him.
Cu was pretty sure he won and it was his revenge for getting ignored, but then he saw two lights flashed on Lancelot. The two lights were command seals, one stabilized his injury, even if it didn't heal him, and the other summoned him away.
"There's no way he'll survive… Right?" Cu wasn't even sure about this move to waste two command seals if Lancelot's master didn't have a plan before he spotted Merlin.
Merlin also looked at Cu and smiled before he disappeared with a storm of petals.
"Illusions? Annoying guy" Cu clicked his tongue before he went into his spiritual form and left the place. He already used his Noble Phantasm and according to his 'master', he needed to retreat.
Meanwhile, at the hotel where the multiverse players from the silver lightning guild stayed, a shadow was moving around.
The shadow didn't produce any sound or movement in the surrounding, but the number of corpses around him told that he was on a killing spree.
"Where is he?!" A man holding a sword said before a wizard behind him snapped and said " Shut up! Focus, don't give him opportunities"
"I know, but he ki--..." The man didn't finish his words as he saw the wizard's head pierced by a dagger as blood flew to the sky.
"AHHH!!!" The man screamed as a golden light enveloped him before swinging his sword around.
*Clang*
A shadow appeared as he stabbed the man's neck before disappearing again, which made the man more nervous before running away.
Jumping from the hotel window and landing on one of the buildings, the man kept running away as he lost all his breath before stopping.
" *pant*... *pant*..." The man was breathing heavily because of his skill cost as he felt that he passed the disaster, but at the moment his skill deactivated, a dagger passed his neck as his vision suddenly changed.
The man was able to see his body while his head flew in the air before losing all the feelings.
This scene continued as Assassin was hunting all the players in the hotel just by using his presence concealment EX. Even if those players have items and skills to detect him or stop him, he'll just choose another target until their skills and items expire before killing them.
So, the solo assassination mission was done against all the players in the hotel as Assassin moved in the shadow again and appeared in front of the black robe vice-leader. In the shocked gaze of the latter, Assassin's dagger flashed before knocking him out.
In this battle, two servants exited the whole war and a lot of multiverse players got their lives taken by their own servant.
