Chapter 611
【Atalanta moved, rushing in front of Jeanne at a speed Jeanne couldn't even react to, and like a madwoman, bit down on her shoulder.】
Shishigou Kairi: "She actually used her mouth; Atalanta has truly gone mad."
Tokiomi Tohsaka: "It's a fight to the death."
Achilles: "Big Sis... that really is a wild way to fight."
Jeanne: "Sigh..."
【On the other side, the battle between Chiron and Achilles had also reached a fever pitch.】
【Achilles suddenly changed his tactics, creating distance from Chiron, which caught Chiron off guard.】
【Charge! My spear, my conviction!】
【"Dromeus Kometes!"】
【Achilles threw his meteor spear, which landed straight in the center of the aircraft.】
Rin Tohsaka: '???'
Waver: "Did the release fail? Nothing happened at all."
Achilles: "Hahaha, don't be impatient; you'll know the power of my Noble Phantasm soon enough."
【Just as Chiron was feeling confused, his expression changed the next moment as if he had sensed something.】
【"I didn't expect you to know magic."】
【Achilles: "The method doesn't matter. This is a space I created to settle the score with Uncle Hector."】
【That's right, "Dromeus Kometes" is not an offensive Noble Phantasm, but one that creates an isolated space centered on the spear. In this space, all divine protections, magic, and even Noble Phantasms are unusable; one can only decide the victor through their own skills.】
【As for the reason he developed this move, it was because when Achilles fought Hector, the latter had dropped the line, "If I fight you, who has the protection of a goddess, I'll be punished by the heavens," and simply ran away. That was why Achilles developed this technique.】
【Incidentally, because this spear once killed the Amazon Queen Penthesilea, it cannot be used against women.】
【Achilles: "In here, divinity and such are crap. If you get hit, you bleed; if you get twisted, you break. Not only third parties, but even luck has no room to intervene, and time is frozen. If we can settle the score here, we can decide the winner in the outside world. How about it? Simple, right?"】
【Hearing Achilles' explanation, Chiron was dumbfounded.】
【He had assumed this space would amplify Achilles, but it turned out to be just a ring for a one-on-one fight.】
【After his surprise, Chiron revealed a natural smile.】
【"I see. So Hector responded to you, too?"】
【Achilles: "Yeah, that guy said, 'In that case, I should have a small chance of winning,' and accepted my challenge. In the end, I barely managed to beat him down."】
Waver: "In other words, he created a stage for a one-on-one."
Achilles: "Exactly."
He had put a lot of thought into inventing this move back then.
Hector, that old fox, would provoke him every time they fought, but would always run away after two exchanges, which frustrated him to no end.
For this reason, he invented this magical barrier, successfully preventing Hector from escaping and forcing him into an all-out fight.
As for the result, he naturally won, and Hector died by his hand, but the opponent had also discovered his Achilles' Heel, leaving information to guide his brother Paris, who used the bow given by Apollo to successfully cripple him, leading to his death.
Waver: "But using this space weakens you even more, doesn't it?"
Achilles: "Hahaha, this is the true duel between warriors."
Iskandar: "Well said! To display the skills learned over a lifetime and defeat the opponent with all one's might."
Achilles: "Hahaha, exactly, that's the logic."
【Achilles: "So, Teacher, do you accept?"】
【Chiron didn't reply, but just twisted his neck and stomped his feet to check the ground, responding to Achilles with his actions.】
【"Then, after this battle ends, I have a wish I'd like you to help me fulfill."】
【Achilles: "A wish?"】
【Chiron: "Yes, that wish is—"】
【Hearing Chiron's wish, Achilles involuntarily made a grimace (the subway old man face).】
Rin Tohsaka: "What did Chiron say? Why does Achilles have that expression?"
Achilles: "Teacher, what did you say?"
Chiron: "Heh heh."
【Chiron: "Then, I accept your duel. So, do you have a chance of winning?"】
【Achilles: "I do. I can't use my spear here, but conversely, you can't use your bow. One-on-one, fist-to-fist; whoever is still standing after beating the other wins."】
【Chiron: "Did you not think I would use a Noble Phantasm?"】
【Achilles: "If you want to use it, that's fine. Your Noble Phantasm is related to the bow, right? If you can crush the arena formed by my 'Dromeus Kometes,' then by all means, try it."】
【Three!】
【"Red Rider, my true name is Achilles, son of the hero Peleus and the sea goddess Thetis."】
【Two!】
【"Black Archer, true name Chiron, son of the great god Cronus and the goddess Philyra."】
【One!】
【"This battle, each by their own skill—"】
【Zero!】
【"Decide the victor!"】
【Both sides attacked simultaneously, their fists landing on each other.】
【Video paused.】
【Question: What will be the final result of this battle?】
【A: Chiron wins, Achilles is eliminated.】
【B: Chiron wins, Achilles retreats.】
【C: Achilles wins, Chiron is eliminated.】
【D: Achilles wins, Chiron retreats.】
【E: Both sides tie.】
【F: Battle is interrupted.】
【Please answer within 1 minute; overtime counts as giving up.】
Achilles: "Hahaha, does this even need to be asked? It's definitely C!"
Achilles: "Although Teacher Chiron is strong, I will definitely be the one to win in the end."
Chiron: "That's hard to say."
【Ding! Congratulations to Achilles for answering this question correctly, obtaining 3 Saint Quartz.】
Chiron: "..."
Achilles: "Pfft, Teacher, don't mind it, don't mind it."
【Answering time over, video continues.】
【The battle began; no defense, no dodging, only the intense collision of fists against flesh.】
【Achilles' fists went straight and true, aiming specifically for Chiron's head, heart, and other vital areas, while Chiron's attacks were much more exquisite, attacking various vital points on Achilles' body through endless variations of punches.】
【"Ooooooh!"】
【"Haaaaaa!"】
【Both sides traded blows, fierce and intense.】
Iskandar: "Oh! This is the true battle!"
Feng Xi: "Mhm, watching the thrill of fists hitting flesh—this is the kind of battle a man should have."
Achilles: "Right? A real man should fight like this."
Ai-chan: "Hahaha, the collision of muscles!"
