Chapter 54

【Heh~】

【"Pfft—."】

【Suddenly.】

【A sharp sound of breaking air rings out, and Rule Breaker flashes by.】

【A right arm is neatly cut off, floating in mid-air, blood spilling.】

【Aki Tomoya's pupils flicker, his brain goes blank for a moment, fear, panic, anxiety, despair... countless emotions surge into his heart instantly.】

【He covers his empty sleeve in disbelief; when the blood touches his hand, his brain nerves instantly recover, and the pain suddenly strikes.】

【"—Woo ah, eh eh ah, ah ah ah ah!!"】

【Suddenly, this scum Master screams miserably, spreading through the void.】

【His teeth are chattering, he understands the situation, and his collapsing shout resounds through the sky.】

【"My hand..."】

【"My King's power..."】

【"What the hell is going on, why didn't you die, why did the Command Spell fail?!"】

【"Oh?"】

【Medea tilts her head cutely, then the corners of her lips curl into a charming smile.】

【"What a stupid Master, knowing clearly that I am the Witch of Betrayal."】

【"The Noble Phantasm formed by my life's legend naturally has the effect of killing the Master."】

【"Rule Breaker...?!"】

【Aki Tomoya is terrified; as a Servant, she can actually break the contract of the Holy Grail with a Noble Phantasm.】

【This is almost impossible, a thing that violates the laws of causality...】

【What's more, after breaking the contract, a Servant without magic power supply will soon disappear, which is no different from suicide for a Servant.】

【How could there be such a thing...】

【"Heh~ Hahahahaha...!"】

【The Witch of Betrayal laughs wildly, her wanton laughter echoing between heaven and earth.】

【It contains the satisfaction of venting hatred, and a few strands of miserable sorrow.】

【No one in the world knows me,】

【And no one believes me.】

【The past is like a dream, the days gone are not yesterday.】

【A lonely and desolate soul wanders in a foreign land, like duckweed without roots.】

【Only sorrow is the most distressing, rising again on my body.】

Suddenly, a miserable BGM ballad plays, floating across the world.】

She is sorrowful, she hums lightly...

Singing that ballad that no one knows.】

"The pain dwelling in my heart makes me accept giving up~"

"The reincarnation of the name of betrayal, blooming with black flowers~"

"Sin falls silently into the deep and sweet~"

"The heart is branded with swaying flames~"

"The chains that lure darkness~"

"I am tightly bound by the same fate~"

"Where the deceitful eyes are watching~"

"Falling into sadness, saved by gentleness~"

"Tearing the intricate threads, controlled by me~"

"Punishing the smile of red lips~"

"The prayer-like wish cries at the edge of the sky~"

"The covenant that lures darkness~"

"I am firmly bound by endless pain~"

"From finding the truth until now~"

"The chains that lure darkness~"

"I am tightly bound by the same fate~"

"Where the deceitful eyes are watching~"

The world is silent; under this incredibly palpitating sad music, they open their lips.】

Wanting to speak but stopping, hearing thunder in the silence.】

The beautiful notes are almost materialized, as if played by unknown ancient instruments, full of the unique ancient charm of ancient Greek mythology, as if beautiful flowers are weeping pearls and witches are shedding tears, interwoven into a ballad of despair.】

Listening carefully, it actually describes the miserable life of the Princess of Colchis.】

In the Sky-Curtain, the Witch of Betrayal looks like she is smiling like a flower, but in her heart, she is sobbing and covering her face in despair.】

People cover their faces in unbearable pain, not daring to look; no matter how many times they look, their hearts tremble violently.】

"Sister Medea's life... is really sad."

The white-haired little girl whose mother poured lead into her eyes looks dejected and sighs.】

"The past cannot be painted, the future cannot be seen, only a curtain of secluded dreams hurts people."

The great writer Dazai Osamu sighs endlessly.】

"Aki Tomoya really deserves to die!!"

The big star Saito Asuka is also angry, her petite jade feet stomping on the ground wildly.】

Under the empathetic condemnation of everyone, Aki Tomoya is an enemy of the world.】

The screen continues to play...

The Sky-Curtain brings the man's extremely unwilling roar.】

【"No, I absolutely cannot die here, my grand plan has not been completed!"】

【Aki Tomoya's expression is fierce, taking out a button that can detonate the entire magecraft barrier.】

【"Boom!!"】

【Like the roar of a nuclear explosion, the firelight rushing into the sky illuminates the nine heavens and ten earths.】

【Smoke rolls, rocks pierce the sky, and the magnificent park collapses suddenly.】

【The magecraft barrier that could once stalemate with the three Knight-class Servants ceases to exist instantly.】

【Taking advantage of the chaos, he grinds his teeth, covering his broken bloody sleeve, reinforcing himself with magecraft, and running fast toward the cellar with his legs.】

【Living is hope...】

【He is Aki Tomoya, a mage of the Aki family, a family with a long heritage.】

【Although it has declined, the accumulated foundation is still quite a lot.】

【Life is heroic, at worst, start over!!】

(Note: Aki Province (AKINOKUNI), one of the ancient provinces of Japan, belongs to the Sanyo Road, also known as Geishu; the territory of Aki Province is approximately the western part of Hiroshima Prefecture.)

"Yo~ still a family."

Yan Shuangying rubs his chin and thinks.】

If the Aki family hadn't declined, would Aki Tomoya still persecute others to make money?】

But after a while, he shakes his head.】

How could a person like Aki Tomoya change?】

Only death!】

【Medea watches that back gradually moving away, curling her lips into a faint smile.】

【She is calm and composed.】

【There is an uncatchable gap between humans and Heroic Spirits, which can be called the difference between clouds and mud.】

【Even if the other party has many life-saving means, he cannot escape her Five Finger Mountain.】

【"Crack—."】
