Chapter 553
[The intersecting lights finally turned into a dazzling meteor.]
[Just as naturally as darkness silently fills the night, as if it were declared by the laws of heaven, the space was filled with scattered and surging light.]
Rin Tohsaka: "The temple was broken from the inside!"]
Zabiko: "Stopping the Sun King?"]
Caules: "So strong—is this the Noble Phantasm of the great hero Arash!"]
Fiore: "Although there is the blessing of three Command Spells, this power is too astonishing."]
Fiore: "Chiron, his Noble Phantasm seems stronger than yours."]
Chiron: "Yeah... Arash, he is a powerful Archer."]
Kaoru Kurotou: "This is the Noble Phantasm an Archer should have."]
Waver: "'Stella', is it a Noble Phantasm evolved from the legend of Arash stopping the war with one arrow? If so..."]
Mordred: "Male Father King also activated his Noble Phantasm... Damn! Was it covered by that guy's brilliance? I didn't even hear the sound!"]
Lancelot: "Feels like it's different from the King's Noble Phantasm, but they are clearly both holy swords."]
[Scattered, rippling, sparing no effort to devour everything.]
[The destruction brought by this absolute magical energy should have been called annihilation.]
[The evidence is the completely melted god-iron outer wall, the shattered throne, and the disintegrated great electric ball.]
[However, the scorching heat did not arrive together.]
[The God King Ozymandias only held his 'radiance'.]
[No astonishment, let alone anxiety.]
[Whether it's the power of the sun, the majesty of the gods, or the manifestation of the God King's heart.]
[The pharaoh had already known in the distant past that it would not be enough to compensate for one thing.]
["I, too, have witnessed it. Something as dazzling as this scene."]
["My friend, my brother, the day he left me in the past, that thing made of starlight that split the Reed Sea."]
[In his voice, there were mixed feelings.]
[Recalling the appearance of a friend who grew up together and laughed with each other.]
[Recalling the appearance of an enemy who broke off relations and fought against each other.]
["Is that so, I see. You who are here now—are you the ones who will save the world for me!"]
[The main temple, collapsed.]
[The huge structure named Radiance was shattered from the inside by light and heat.]
[The Reality Marble, over two thousand meters long and menacing, vanished in an instant—]
Sieg: "I didn't expect this to be the exit..."]
Astolfo: "Feels a bit hasty."]
Charlemagne: "No, the Sun King had already anticipated his result, he chose to accept it calmly."]
Rin Tohsaka: "I originally thought this guy was another Gilgamesh, but now it seems he's much better than Gilgamesh."]
Gilgamesh: "Ah! Mongrel, are you provoking me!"]
Zabiko: "Alright, alright, you two should stop, don't argue at every turn."]
["So cool, Assassin, look."]
["Yes."]
["Hehe, the light of the holy sword is so beautiful, so dazzling, although something else is mixed in."]
[Manaka Sajyou said indulgently under the night sky.]
[On the Reverse Reverse Reverse Reverse Side was Serenity Hassan, who had just returned from slaughtering the Ise-Mi family in Okutama.]
["Must praise Caster well."]
["Yes, Manaka-sama."]
Kairi Sisigou: "Sure enough, it was Caster who leaked the information, letting them be prepared early."]
Caules: "The whole family was slaughtered!"]
Gordes: "Hey, hey, this is too—"]
Kayneth: "This girl named Manaka Sajyou is too terrifying..."]
["I'm sorry..."]
[In a hideout somewhere in the city, Elsa Saijou was sobbing uncontrollably.]
[At hand was the phone that had just finished the call.]
["I'm sorry, Archer... Arash..."]
[Just like history, Arash's Noble Phantasm 'Stella', after being used, is the time for his exit.]
[This is a Noble Phantasm that can only be activated by sacrificing oneself.]
Waver: "Sure enough..."]
Rin Tohsaka: "Sigh! In other words, this Noble Phantasm can only be used once!"]
Fiore: "No wonder it has such power."]
Chiron: "Just like a meteor in the sky, blooming with a moment of brilliance."]
Kairi Sisigou: "Arash in history did indeed pass away after shooting that arrow that ended the war, no wonder."]
Atalanta: "This is a true hero."]
["At least, Tokyo is still alive now. Elsa is also fine..."]
[Inside the gradually collapsing Great Temple, Arash's body had already begun to dissipate,]
["Are you okay? Spiritual core, wasn't it hit?"]
["..."]
[No response, in order to compete with Arash, Arthur also exhausted all his magical energy, and at this moment he couldn't even speak.]
["Sorry. It would have been good if I could have guided it to my Reverse Reverse Reverse Reverse Side, but there was no time."]
[Legs, bursting.]
["Although there are legends in later generations that he survived, sigh, that's it. That's a different matter. I am, the genuine Arash Kamangir."]
[Arms, belly, chest, gradually shattering, the armor made of magical energy as well.]
["(...Still have things I want to say to Elsa) Listen to me, Saber—"]
[Voice hoarse. Lungs, also, are shattering.]
["You are correct..."]
[Throat, cracking.]
["The people of Tokyo—originally, they really don't have much connection to us."]
[Ears can no longer hear, eardrums must have broken.]
["But even so, they are innocent people. They are no different from the cute people we protected in the past."]
[The internal organs are about to disappear.]
["I'll stop here. Say, King of Knights. Man who wields the brilliant sword following glory—"]
[Tongue split. Ah ah, the brain and spiritual core are also going to disappear.]
["—You, what is your wish for the Holy Grail?"]
[Last words.]
[In the end, was it correctly conveyed to that holy sword wielder?]
[Video ends.]
Artoria: "Arash, worthy of the name of hero."]
Gawain: "If he were born in our place, he would probably become a noble knight."]
Zabiko: "I thought Archer's contract was taken by Manaka Sajyou, but in the end, it seems it was still in the hands of the original Master?"]
Blonde Rin: "It seems Manaka Sajyou used some means to control Archer's Master."]
Rin Tohsaka: "I remember, Serenity Hassan didn't sign a contract with Manaka Sajyou either."]
Nameless: "It seems this girl doesn't intend to Matsuwanko Matsuwanko Take the Command Spells of Servants other than Saber."]
BB: "Heh, is this love?"]
Blonde Rin: "No matter how you look at it, it's paranoia and possessiveness at work."]
