Chapter 456

~6 min read 1,181 words

【Jeanne acted quickly, running along the city wall, and successfully got onto the Hanging Gardens with movements that could make Newton jump up.】

【On the way, Jeanne also thought about who the owner of this Noble Phantasm was.】

【The Hanging Gardens of Babylon, the one who can hold this Noble Phantasm is either the builder of the garden, 'Nebuchadnezzar II', or the Empress who is rumored to have built the garden - Semiramis.】

【"That's right, Ruler."】

【The Empress also appeared in front of Jeanne at this time.】

【Jeanne: "Red faction's Assassin, so it was you."】

【Empress: "That's right, Ruler, what are you doing in my garden? I don't think I've done anything that violates the rules."】

【Jeanne: "No, you have."】

【Empress: "Oh, then tell me, what rule did I violate?"】

【"Don't delay time here."】

【Jeanne said in a deep voice: "If you can say with your own conscience that you have always followed the rules of the Holy Grail War, then let me see your Master."】

【In an instant, the Empress's eyes changed from mockery to vigilance.】

【And seeing the change in her eyes, Jeanne also confirmed that the clue she was following was correct.】

【The Empress did not continue to stop Jeanne, because she couldn't do it.】

【Things have reached this point, Jeanne no longer intends to leave room for the Red faction and directly showed her Command Spell.】

【With just one Command Spell, she could make the Empress commit suicide directly.】

【Facing the threat of the Command Spell, the Empress had to give in.】

Empress: "Ruler, you are the one who violated the rules now."】

Jeanne: "Hmph, weren't you the ones who violated the rules first?"】

She was talking about the Red faction's attack incident at the beginning.】

Although Ruler is said to be a referee, she mainly descended just in case; as long as there are no accidents in the Holy Grail War, they are actually just bystanders.】

Like the Qin Qin Shi Huang, he watched from beginning to end during the Fourth War and didn't intervene in any battle at all, except for accepting the Conqueror King's challenge at the end.】

If the Red faction hadn't attacked her first, she wouldn't have gotten involved in the Holy Grail War at all.】

This is because Jeanne's personality is relatively gentle; if it were the Qin Qin Shi Huang, he would probably openly make things difficult for the Red faction.】

After all, from the moment you attacked me, you were my enemy.】

Treat enemies without mercy.】

【Just after Jeanne had moved forward for a while, she suddenly felt a revelation and looked in a certain direction.】

【There, it seemed that some extremely evil creature had appeared.】

【Time goes back a few minutes, to the direction Jeanne was looking at.】

【Like Jeanne, Vlad III also jumped onto the Hanging Gardens, intending to take back the Holy Grail, but encountered Karna again.】

【This time, Vlad III was mercilessly crushed by the opponent.】

【Just as the Empress said, this Hanging Garden does not belong to Romania, so after he stepped on it, he lost the bonus given to him by his homeland.】

【If the strength of the previous battle was 100%, then now it is at most 60%.】

【It was difficult enough with 100%, let alone 60%.】

Caules: "As expected..."】

Gordes: "Now we really have no hope."】

Siegfried exited first, their strongest is Vlad III; even Vlad III is no match for Karna, so don't count on other Servants.】

Vlad III: "Although I'm very unwilling, it seems this King can only go this far."】

Darnic: "..."】

He quietly began to retreat, because he had already thought of the subsequent development.】

【"Am I going to die here..."】

【Vlad III had lost the elegance, gorgeousness, and violence he always maintained; now, all that supported him was his dignity as a hero.】

【Humiliation, despair, regret, like a surging river, constantly disturbed Vlad III's heart.】

【"No, it's not that there's no way to win, as long as you are willing to release that Noble Phantasm."】

【At this time, Darnic, who had followed onto the Hanging Gardens and was watching the battle from afar, spoke up.】

【However, this sentence of his completely ignited Vlad III's anger.】

【Forcing Karna back with a full-force blow, Vlad III turned back to look at his Master, releasing his killing intent toward the opponent without concealment.】

【"Darnic, what did you just say to me?"】

【However, facing Vlad III's pressure, Darnic endured it as if nothing had happened and continued to say those words that were considered rebellious to Vlad III.】

【"King, use that Noble Phantasm, this is the only choice to win."】

【"What on earth are you talking about!"】

【Vlad III was like a lion with its fur standing on end, roaring with a ferocious face: "I said it, I will absolutely not use that Noble Phantasm, have you forgotten! I have never thought about, and will absolutely never use that Noble Phantasm, to become that kind of despised existence!"】

【"Absolutely! This is absolutely impossible!!!"】

【"I will die here, I will be buried here with regrets, this is the fate of the loser!"】

【"It is you who forgot, no matter what, we must obtain the Greater Grail!"】

【Darnic no longer hid it, directly showed his Command Spell, and said: "In order to use that as a symbol to take revenge on the Mage's Association, or to reach the Root. Even as a King, you should have a concrete wish."】

【"Since that's the case, there is only the path of using the Noble Phantasm."】

【Vlad III: "Darnic, you guy!"】

【Darnic: "I command with a Command Spell, Heroic Spirit Vlad III, immediately activate the Noble Phantasm - 'Legend of Dracula'!"】

【"Darnic! You bastard!!!"】

"Darnic!!!"

From the moment Darnic in the video spoke, Vlad III's face had already turned blue; seeing this, he couldn't help it anymore, stood up directly, and looked at Darnic with gritted teeth.】

Intense killing intent pressed on Darnic; he was not as calm as in the video at this time.】

"Damn it..."】

Darnic cursed in his heart and hurriedly knelt down: "King, this is the best choice; if we don't use that Noble Phantasm, we will have no chance of winning at all."】

"Shut up!!!"】

Vlad III couldn't take it anymore, jumped up and stabbed Darnic's head with his spear.】

"Calm down, Impaling Prince!"】

Finn, who was on the side, reacted quickly and hurriedly blocked his attack.】

"That's right, King, now is not the time for us to fight internally."】

Fiore asked Chiron to hurry up and pull Vlad III back, persuading him: "That is indeed the last choice, Uncle was just unwilling to fail like this, please King forgive Uncle."】

"Hoo..."】

Under the persuasion of the group, Vlad III finally stopped for the time being, but the killing intent in his eyes did not diminish.】

Darnic's actions in the video undoubtedly touched Vlad III's reverse scale.】

Darnic was also very helpless; his relationship with Vlad III was completely broken now.】

At the same time, he was also a little panicked; would he in the video also implement that idea?】
