Chapter 523

~8 min read 1,476 words

The old Saber looked at the chaos continuously crawling out of the golden, holy Great Holy Grail, and couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart.

Is it changing its form? No, that's not right, it's expanding!

Is it planning to destroy the Great Holy Grail that serves as its container and go outside?!

The old Saber's eyes were solemn, his brows furrowed. He saw it very clearly; once that creature touched flesh, it would decompose it into quanta in an instant!

The existence of Tokyo would likely be gone in an instant!

Then—it must absolutely not be let go!

In the void, the Beast gestated in the Holy Grail was breaking through the Holy Grail with all its might, roaring continuously!

I want to go out, I want to be born, I want to be born! I want to be born!, the eerie roar sounded seven times, "There are so many delicious things, I want to eat, I want more, more, more~"

"I want to eat! I want to be born!"

"You, of all things, must not be born into the world!", the old Saber said coldly.

"Looks delicious, looks delicious," the Beast in the Holy Grail turned its gaze toward the child in the old Saber's arms!

Delicious, delicious, delicious, delicious, want to eat, want to eat, want to eat, want to eat—

"Don't get in my way!", blood-colored tentacles crawled out from the Holy Grail, slicing through space, and in an instant, they were before the old Saber's eyes!

Ssh—!

The old Saber reacted extremely quickly; the moment the blood-colored tentacles fell, he had already swung his blade and then slashed down with force!

"I want to eat!!!", the Beast roared, and one head had already crawled out from it!

That was a giant head with a dragon's face, the blood-red color in its eyes not hiding its madness and greed!

】

【Spider: "Wait, why does this look more and more familiar? Isn't this dragon head a bit familiar?! And this cry... I've heard it somewhere before too."】

【Mash: "Senior, isn't this the dragon head that Nero-senpai snatched away back then?!"】

【Fujimaru Ritsuka: "That's right, Mash, this is exactly the Demonic Beast He from the Spiral Proof World Singularity!"】

【Saten Ruiko: "So that's it, everything is connected! Isn't this so-called Beast of Revelation the 666 Beast of Nero back then! Miss Merlin also talked to it before and mentioned Mr. Old Saber. Could it be that this is Miss Beast Nero?!"】

In the Myriad Worlds

At this time, everyone also remembered that in the Spiral Proof Singularity, wasn't the 666 Beast what the old Saber was hunting down?

Back then, the old Saber's shadow had said that they were not people of this world, and they were hunting it down to this point precisely to kill Beast Nero!

Now looking at it, if all of this matches up, then the grudge was formed at that time?

And Beast Nero was... summoned by Sajo Manaka?!

No, that's not it; it can only be said that there might be some relationship between the two. The Beast of Revelation they see now, which is the Sixth Beast, is indeed Beast Nero.

But Beast Nero also has L and R sides; it seems that what was summoned is more like the L formed by the Demonic Beast He.

I didn't expect there to be such a layer of relationship. Back then, they were wondering why the old Saber, as a wielder of the holy sword, only kept hacking at Beast Nero.

Now it seems that their relationship doesn't look very friendly.

A monster summoned by a yandere using human lives?

Everyone cleared up the clues and couldn't help but feel delighted.

【

"Sister... Father," the sleeping child in his arms muttered softly. The old Saber's expression became increasingly firm, and he kept dodging while wielding the holy sword!

"I will protect this child!"

But having said that, the old Saber knew very well that with his current strength, he couldn't defeat this monster before him at all, and he couldn't even last a few more minutes.

If he couldn't maintain his presence in the world, he would disappear from the world. The old Saber looked at the holy sword in his hand; how much power could his holy sword exert...

"Roar!!!", the earth overturned, mountains and rivers shattered, and that terrifying evil let out a deafening roar!

"Want to eat!!!"

The old Saber was hit and sent flying, falling heavily to the ground, but even so, he still held the young girl in his arms tightly, not letting her suffer the slightest harm.

Looking at the quiet and sweet face of the young girl in his arms, the old Saber gripped the holy sword in his hand tightly.

Even so, before he completely disappeared, he would fulfill what he should do!!!

At this very moment, save Tokyo, along with the child held tightly in his left hand!!!

The holy sword burst forth with brilliant radiance!

That scorching, bright light seemed to illuminate even this world!

The old Saber began to burn his own Spirit Origin, condensing all the magical energy in his body and his own conviction into this one sword!

"Thirteen Restraints, release! Round Table Resolution, start!"

"The Star Holy Sword cannot be used by a single hero alone. The sword that can cut down extraterrestrial enemies of the planet should be the strongest sword wielded only to protect the world."

"Because of its powerful strength, the Knight King and his subordinates implemented strict regulations on the holy sword."

"That is—"

The Radiant Holy Sword to save the stars!

It is the golden blade forged to defeat extraterrestrial enemies attempting to destroy the stars, capable of repelling almost all evil!

The old Saber raised his head sharply, staring at the evil before him!

One voice after another came from the holy sword!

"This is a battle against something stronger than oneself—Bedivere approves!"

"Must not deviate from human morality—Gaheris approves!"

"Must fight in pursuit of truth—Agravain approves!"

"Must not be an enemy of the fae—Lancelot approves!"

"Must fight against evil—Mordred approves!"

"And then, this is a war of salvation!!!"

"Arthur—approves!"

Confirmed, successful simulation of the Noble Phantasm's release and activation—!

"Holy Sword—Six Restraints, unsealed!"

"Excalibur!!!"

In an instant, the sky burst forth with brilliant radiance capable of illuminating the entire planet!!!!

Because half or more than seven restraints were not released, it still could not exert its true power—!

But even so, it was undoubtedly a fierce light that exterminated powerful evil!

The scorching, brilliant torrent of magical energy bombarded the source from which evil continuously spilled!

And in an instant, pitch-black and scarlet light also erupted from the Holy Grail, like a volcanic eruption, instantly gushing out and colliding with the radiance of the holy sword!

"Ahhhhhhhh!!! Disappear, you wretched Beast!"

"The place where you should be born is not here, nor is it now!"

"Gather the power of the seven riders!", seven-colored light emerged from the old Saber's right hand; that was the right hands of the seven Heroic Spirits supporting this Star Holy Sword together!

". Ahhhhhhhhh!!!", the old Saber roared, the brilliant radiance seeming like light illuminating the world, dispelling all darkness at this moment!

The Holy Grail was finally shattered by the old Saber's own hands!

That which carried the old Saber's wish, that which carried the dream of saving Britain, was shattered by Arthur's own hands!

The world—was saved!

Although his left arm could not be used because it was holding the child tightly, the Knight of Destiny still fulfilled his vow, wielded the holy sword, and defeated all the evil of this world!

Resisting all the desires of this world!

To open up the tomorrow of everything in this world!

When the old Saber came to his senses again, he had already returned to before his death—

The Battle of Camlann—

"I had a dream, Bedivere," the King sat on a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood, looking at the already destroyed Britain.

He said to his subject, "In the dream, I saw it, in an unknown place in a distant land where you do not exist."

"I was foolish, filled with confusion, but still wielded this holy sword," the old Saber looked at the brilliant holy sword and couldn't help but lose his focus.

"No one would say the King is foolish," Bedivere was filled with sorrow.

The old Saber smiled, "Thank you, my knight... Knight, I command you, cross this forest, cross the blood-stained hills, and head to the lakeside."

"There, throw this holy sword into the lake."

Bedivere raised his head sharply, astonished, "Oh King, that...!"

"I am no longer a King. Having failed to save the country in the end, I now only want to live as a knight," the old Saber said softly.
