~4 min read 721 words

【Ilumia looked at Waver and the others and said: "What? I thought you had already escaped; I didn't expect you to take the initiative to deliver yourselves to the door."】

【As she spoke, she waved her hand forcefully, backhanding a punch to shatter the skull of a skeleton soldier that was sneaking up on her. However, a moment later, skeleton soldiers appeared again one after another from the place she had swept.】

【The more skeleton soldiers Ilumia defeated, the more appeared.】

Shishigou Kairi: "These don't look like undead puppets, but some kind of magical creation."

Kayneth: "As long as there is enough magic power, new skeleton soldiers can be continuously created."

Kayneth: "However, judging from the previous situation, those skeleton soldiers can only be created here, not in the tunnel."

【"Phew, the source of magic power is indeed the villagers on the ground, right? I'm sick of this cycle!"】

【Facing the endless skeleton soldiers, Ilumia felt annoyed.】

【"Priest!"】

【"Yes! I, I know!"】

【Fernand, who had been hiding, walked out, gripped the cross on his chest, took a deep breath, and began to chant.】

【"Hear this, all you peoples!"】

【"Listen, all you inhabitants of the world!"】

【"Both low and high, rich and poor together, listen!"】

【"But no one can redeem themselves, or give to God the equivalent of their soul."】

【The continuous voice quickly activated the formula, forming a mysterious, powerful water flow that was not unrelated to this land.】

【In the Clock Tower, this is called the largest magic foundation of humanity.】

【Gray was very familiar with this chant, because this was a section from Fernand's preaching.】

【Simple words, now coming from this priest's mouth, possessed extraordinary 'power'.】

【"They call the land by their own names. They think their homes will last forever, and the grave is their eternal dwelling place. But man cannot enjoy wealth for long."】

【As this scripture was spoken, the anomaly in the surroundings occurred.】

【The skeleton soldiers that were about to attack Fernand instantly stopped their movements with him as the center. Not only that, some of the skeleton soldiers fell directly to the ground and turned into dust in the blink of an eye.】

【"They are like livestock destined to perish..."】

【After Fernand made the sign of the cross to conclude the prayer, the nearby skeleton soldiers all disintegrated directly.】

Rin Tohsaka: "Amazing. I thought this fat priest was just here to make up the numbers; I didn't expect him to have a trick up his sleeve."

Illya: "It really is 'don't judge a book by its cover'."

Risei Kotomine: "When it comes to dealing with these creatures that blaspheme life, the Holy Church is the most adept."

【Waver: "This is, Baptismal Sacrament..."】

【Baptismal Sacrament is the only magic that the Holy Church publicly allows to be learned, and it is also the only kind of magic that the Holy Church has, but perhaps because of this, it is omnipotent.】

【Waver: "Using the largest-scale magic foundation of humanity based on the faith of the Holy Church, violently purifying the surroundings. Although the physical effect is not high, the power is immense in terms of soul and curses. It is the key to the heavenly principle that forcibly imposes the rule of faith."】

【Gray: "How could!"】

【Waver: "Although it seems unable to affect the spiritual base of that masked girl and Sir Kay, skeleton soldiers of that level cannot approach. However, we who also use the magic foundation will also be forced to have our power weakened..."】

Rin Tohsaka: "Oh! This move is the same magic that Amakusa Shirou used to eliminate Dracula in the previous video! I didn't recognize it for a moment."

Shirou Kotomine: "Although this is the same kind of magic, everyone in the church uses it in very different ways, bringing their own characteristics."

Kayneth: "But this just cleared the surrounding skeleton soldiers; it can't stop the creation of skeleton soldiers."

Shirou Kotomine: "But it can also free them up to do other things, right?"

Waver: "Could it be!"

【"Haha, I don't think Baptismal Sacrament alone can solve the problem."】

【Ilumia looked at the new skeleton soldiers appearing from the other end of the cave and nodded slightly toward Waver and the others.】

【"However, even if we don't get rid of King Arthur's mind, getting rid of your body is the same!"】
