Chapter 440: ·The Vicious Shakespeare

(Shakespeare)

【Astolfo continues to charge at Semiramis. The opponent summons a large number of magic circles, releasing dense lightning, but all are blocked by Astolfo's barrier.】

【Astolfo: "I'll take your head!"】

【Semiramis: "Ha, it seems my Hanging Gardens have been underestimated!"】

【Semiramis summons magic circles again, but this time she gathers the energy of the lightning through connections, releasing an even more powerful attack.】

【The careless Astolfo has his barrier broken directly, and the hippogriff beneath him is also scattered. He falls from the sky just like that.】

【Because he is a Heroic Spirit, although it hurts to fall to the ground, Astolfo is not seriously injured.】

Rin Tohsaka: "To fall from such a high place... just looking at it makes it hurt."】

Waver: "It seems the defense of that book is not invincible."】

【Astolfo wants to use his Noble Phantasm, but as soon as he thinks of the homunculus supplying the mana dying, he is extremely repulsed.】

【Just then, Mordred drives over, almost hitting Astolfo.】

【After Mordred gets out of the car, Shishigou turns the car around and runs away without a word.】

【This small car has been messed up beyond recognition; it's a miracle it can still move.】

【Mordred: "Really, but never mind. Protagonists always appear a step late. The King's leisurely advance to the battlefield is the way of the world."】

【Astolfo: "Huh? Are you a King?"】

【Mordred: "That's right. If you surrender, I can let your head fall without pain."】

【Astolfo: "I'm afraid that won't do. After all, I am a Servant too."】

【Astolfo, who just went through one battle, is now about to start a second one.】

Lancelot: "Mordred, how dare you claim to be King!"】

Mordred: "Do you have any complaints? I should have been King in the first place!"】

Lancelot: "You are not the heir designated by the King, and you are a rebel. You have no qualifications to call yourself King!"】

Mordred: "Speaking of rebellion, what qualifications do you have to criticize me!"】

Illya: "At a time like this, shouldn't we ask King Arthur to express an opinion?"】

Artoria: "..."】

Extra Feng Xi: "You girl who fears nothing but chaos, the mother-daughter relationship has just eased a little, and you want to destroy it?"】

Mordred: "Can you even talk! What mother-daughter? Father King and I are father-son!"】

Rin Tohsaka: "Is that what you're focusing on!"】

【On the other side of the battlefield, Jeanne is about to rush to Shirou Kotomine's location but is blocked by an attack from Semiramis on the Hanging Gardens.】

【And Shirou Kotomine, having received this news, does not intend to tangle with Frankenstein anymore and directly retreats with Shakespeare.】

【However, he wants to retreat, but Frankenstein is not willing.】

【Fight when you want, run when you want—do you have no regard for me?】

【So Shirou Kotomine, who hadn't run far, is subjected to a fierce pursuit by Frankenstein.】

【Shakespeare sees this and casts magic to cover the retreat.】

【"Life's but a walking shadow, a poor player that struts and frets his hour upon the stage and then is heard no more."】

【Countless pages wrap around Frankenstein, and the scene before her eyes changes instantly.】

【Painful memories appear before her eyes again.】

【The scientist Dr. Victor Frankenstein wanted to create a perfect girl, but after spending two years, what he created was a doll that couldn't even cry.】

【Victor dismantled her in anger, but didn't expect her to piece herself back together.】

【Despite being treated viciously, the girl still admired the creator as a father, but was rejected, not even given a name.】

【Because she didn't understand anything, she offered the internal organs of a dog that attacked her to her father as a treasure, only to be called a monster by him, and the relationship between the two was decisively broken.】

【"Stop it."】

【Victor's figure appears before Frankenstein, his expression so gentle and kind.】

【"Boom!"】

【Seeing this familiar yet strange figure, Frankenstein's heart jolts violently, and the Maiden's Chastity in her hand falls to the ground.】

Frankenstein: "Waaah!!!"

Caules: "What's wrong with you, Fran? Calm down!"】

Irisviel: "What a pitiful child. Because she couldn't meet the creator's expectations, she was treated so viciously."】

Chiron: "Because she didn't get good guidance, she didn't even form normal values."】

Sieg: "Frankenstein, a homunculus who couldn't get recognition..."】

Rin Tohsaka: "Shakespeare's Noble Phantasm is quite vicious, picking at people's wounds."】

Extra Feng Xi: "Shakespeare was originally a writer who liked to write tragedies."】

Shakespeare: "Oh, life is a tragedy, and aren't we the ones who cause this tragedy ourselves?"】

Rin Tohsaka: "What kind of twisted logic is that?"】

Shishigou: "Making people face their most painful memories is indeed a vicious and practical method."】

【Victor: "Yes, that's good. Don't fight anymore, because that's not the purpose for which I created you."】

【"Uhh, ah..."】

【Looking at the hand the other person is reaching out to her head, Frankenstein's hair stands on end.】

【A parent's touch—although this is something she has craved her whole life, she is not a fool.】

【She knows that the person before her is not her father at all.】

【Her father would never be so gentle to her.】

【"Woooooaaaaah!!!"】

【Frankenstein, entering a Mad Enhancement state, strikes the 'Victor' before her away with one blow, then charges forward and begins to output crazily toward the other's head.】

【"Shut up, shut up, shut up, shut up..."】

【After an unknown amount of time, the person before her has turned into a mosaic, and Frankenstein stops.】

【Frankenstein, having regained a bit of reason, understands that this is probably the effect of Shakespeare's magic.】

【After all, the corpse before her has turned into a doll.】

【But immediately, Frankenstein kneels on the ground, her face becoming depressed yet manic.】

【Although it was fake, she hurt the person she missed once again.】

Frankenstein: "Woooo..."

Caules: "Frankenstein..."】

Illya: "So brutal. Fortunately, it was fake."】

Rin Tohsaka: "Shakespeare, you guy is truly too vicious!"】

Shakespeare: "No way, this is the effect of my magic. I don't know what the person affected will see."】

【"Woooo..."】

【Just as Frankenstein is about to fall into a rampage again, Caules's voice rings in her ears.】

【"I command you with a Command Spell, Berserker, calm down!"】

【In an instant, the negative emotions in Frankenstein's mind disappear.】

【Frankenstein: "Aah?"】

【"Great, have you calmed down?"】

【Caules, observing from the castle, also breathes a sigh of relief and transmits, "Berserker, they have already escaped. Don't worry about it. You've done very well."】

【"Your pursuit ends here for now. There are many other places where you need to fight. Do you understand?"】

【Frankenstein: "Aah!"】 ===== CHAPTER 442 =====
