Chapter 439
"It's still Brother Luo's fist that is hard; if it were someone else, they would have been beaten to death by the Conqueror King long ago."】
……..】
"Suddenly I feel this kid is okay; at least he knows shame, unlike some phantom thief........"】
Police Station.】
A certain Officer Nakamori, who had been tracking the Phantom Thief Kid, snorted coldly.】
He was talking about Phantom Thief Kid.】
Although he would return the stolen goods later, he disregarded the law and infringed on others' privacy and sovereignty, causing I don't know how much trouble for the public for decades.】
Sooner or later, he would bring that guy to justice.】
Now is not the past.】
As a C-rank magician, he has this confidence.】
………】
Ekoda High School.】
Kuroba Kaito's eyes drifted.】
Honestly, probably because of his family background, in reality, he never had such things as shame or guilt since the first time he stole something as a phantom thief.】
Instead, he became more flashy each time.】
Anyway, he returned the things in the end, so it's probably no problem... right?】
………】
【Top of the building.】
【Diarmuid, the demigod who manifested as a Lancer, got permission and turned into a bursting wave of anger, heading towards the battlefield.】
【Behind him.】
【Kudo Yukiko covered her mouth and giggled, while Kudo Yusaku on the Reverse Reverse Side had a green face.】
【It was impossible to let him go to the battlefield with the Lancer.】
【Not to mention how terrifying the aftermath of the Servant battle was, that disgrace of a magician Yukinoshita Yano he found would definitely take the opportunity to kill him.】
【Even if he had confidence in his magic, even if his machine was good at defense, he didn't want to take this risk.】
【Too many powerful magicians died under the hands of that insidious woman.】
【Forget it, a rat is a rat.】
【Kudo Yusaku had a good mentality, adjusted quickly, and hugged his wife to watch the moon.】
【But the Lancer, carrying anger, turned into a blue thunder dragon stretching for several kilometers, roaring as it descended on the battlefield.】
【"Rider, how can you judge my Lord!"】
【Amidst the roar.】
【The pitch-black sky seemed like a canvas being split by a blue meteor, carrying the divine power that crushed the earth as it fell from the sky towards the Conqueror King's chariot.】
【Without caring about exposing his identity, he raised his hand and used his resident Noble Phantasm—Gae Dearg (Crimson Rose of Exorcism).】
【Diarmuid was extremely grateful to Kudo Yusaku, his Lord.】
【His attitude was gentle, and he had great trust in him, not treating him as a familiar, but as a subordinate.】
【Coincidentally, his wish for responding to the Holy Grail was just this.】
【So, he, who was already loyal, had his loyalty maxed out.】
【A subject dies for the humiliation of his lord; at this moment, his strongest output bloomed with his anger without mercy.】
【Although it could not increase the scale of the attack, the blood-colored long spear with the concept of exorcism could pierce even a temple-level barrier in one blow.】
【"Diarmuid, the peerless hero of the Celts?"】
【The giant with red whiskers bristling, radiating infinite dominance, pulled out his short sword, stood up tall, and laughed: "It's truly hearty for ancient heroes to gather here."】
【"But compared to my hegemony, even you will surely be crushed under the chariot."】
【The giant roared, raising his short sword and slashing at the void.】
【More terrifying and domineering divine power bloomed.】
【The sky... cracked.】
【The pitch-black night sky covering half the metropolis cracked in the next moment, and sacred golden light bloomed from it, as if a golden eye covering the sky, indifferently releasing thunder that destroyed everything.】
【With a roar.】
【The collision between the ancient hero and the hegemon bloomed at this moment.】
252. Flashy appears: In heaven and on earth, I alone am King
【A whirlwind swirled around the divine chariot and rose.】
【Snap.】
【Under the terrifying pressure, with the chariot as the center, the reinforced concrete ground within a radius of hundreds of meters sank layer by layer.】
【Ripples rippled out from the center of the collision, like the sharpest cutting blades, silently dividing the earth, spreading towards the sky and the earth, forming a magnificent semicircle overlooking the city.】
【Even the Lancer group on the distant high-rise building could clearly see the semicircular air waves spreading layer by layer, exceeding the cover of the high-rise building.】
【"Is this a Servant? Is this an ancient hero?"】
【Looking up at that magnificent shadow, even Kudo Yusaku, one of the peaks of modern magic and a powerful Lord of the Clock Tower, lost his voice.】
【His remaining arrogance was torn to shreds in an instant.】
【Originally, he thought they were all human, and Heroic Spirits were just the sublimation of ancient people; how much stronger could they be than him?】
【And now...】
【Kudo Yusaku's pupils constricted violently, watching the bay being cut open layer by layer, even exposing the seabed under the deep seawater.】
【Blazing gold and gorgeous blue exploded from the collision point, turning into streaks of thunder flashing between heaven and earth.】
【The divine-realm-level collision from the ancient demigod turned the whole world into a colorful mess.】
………
"Hiss~~ awesome!!!"
The entire sky lost its color at this moment, and even if immersed in it, one could only see the elongated blurred outlines.
People gasped.
"No way, playing so big in the early stage? Shouldn't it be like the Fifth War, fighting in close combat first?"
"Yes, looking at the Conqueror King's build, close combat shouldn't be bad, right? Maybe not losing to Rider?"
"Not losing my ass, the Great Emperor is a strategist and military expert, not someone like Xiang Yu who is both civil and military, capable of leading troops and opening up unparalleled power; what's strong is the Noble Phantasm."
"But it's a pity, he only used the A+ rank Noble Phantasm 【Far-reaching Trampling Domination】, and still doesn't know what his EX-rank trump card is."
Many people sighed.
In this Holy Grail War, it feels like the Heroic Spirits are strong, and their close combat is more outrageous than the last.
"Holy crap, I checked, Diarmuid seems to be the uncle of the Fifth War's Dog."
"Go, this can also be pulled together? No wonder close combat is so hanging, close combat can fight against Noble Phantasms."
"Wait, logically speaking, Saber, Lancer, and Brother Luo, who are good at close combat, should be very counter to Rider, right? Why does the Rider group only think the Caster class is a threat?"
"Or is it that Rider's trump card is very counter to Servants who are good at close combat? I remember Kuroba Kaito said that four Servants together are enough to defeat them head-on."
"Hiss, it's possible, his distances are all Berserker, Lancer, and other classes good at close combat."
Many people thought more and more about it.
But the problem is.
What kind of Noble Phantasm... can counter such a Servant?
………
【"Is this your trump card? Rider?"】
【In the gorgeous ocean of light intertwined with gold and blue, a high-pitched voice passed: "Just this level and you dare to insult my Lord?"】
【A trace of a crack appeared, revealing the excited face of Diarmuid, who manifested as a Lancer, erupting with maximum output almost ferociously.】
【The scarlet long spear with the concept of "exorcism" actually withstood the golden thunder, cutting it open like scissors cutting a canvas.】
【"Not just breaking magic, but can break all extraordinary power?"】
【The Masters who were watching this battle closely quietly increased Lancer's threat.】
【Sure enough, whether a Noble Phantasm is strong or not is not entirely related to the rank.】
【"Truly a powerful hero, Lancer!!"】
【"Worthy of the name 'Peerless', hahahaha, reappearing in this era, being able to fight with a hero like you is truly too happy!"】
