A king who was beaten to death with a club is probably only slightly better off than a queen who was pelted with cheese.

"You bastard, you dare to come back?"

Mordred saw Fujimaru Kyoya and, without saying a word, went over with her sword. Clearly, with her helmet on, she was now invincible.

"Gawain is in your hands now. I have something to discuss with the King of Lions."

Fujimaru Kyoya really had no time to play with his niece. What he needed to do now was to quickly ascertain Chaldea's movements and send his arrogant younger sister back home.

The world is not at the point where it needs a little girl to save it.

"You seem quite unhappy that your prey was taken from you."

Rongomyniad looked at Fujimaru Kyoya, whose dark expression clearly showed that this powerful man was not happy at the moment.

"I want to know the whereabouts of the Chaldea."

"There's no rush. After all, the person who took them away is not easy to deal with."

This is getting interesting. Fujimaru Kyoya understands that the person in front of him is actually a true god, but such a person is said to be difficult to deal with.

Then the other party is definitely not Merlin, that clumsy Magecraft who bites his tongue while chanting spells.

"Vortigern, our old friend has also arrived at this Singularity."

"Him? Hmph~ That does fit his personality."

Fujimaru Kyoya naturally recalled that defiant old man who dared to defy even the Divine Era Decline, let alone the continuation of Human Order.

Although later humans and the humans of the Age of Gods are two different species, the purpose of Humanity Incineration was to destroy the entire Human Order, so everything of the humans of the Age of Gods would also be reduced to nothing.

In that situation, it would be strange if that old man didn't jump up and down in anger.

"The Chaldea can only go to two places: the Pyramid in the desert and the Spirit Temple deep in the Deep Mountain."

Both places Rongomyniad were tough nuts to crack: one was home to Ramesses II, Egypt's most famous Pharaoh, and the other harbored an ancient assassin.

"Lancelot is currently patrolling the outskirts of the desert; leave that to him. I plan to send Mordred and Tristan to the mountains."

Although the Old Man of the Mountain wouldn't act rashly, Rongomyniad was still somewhat uneasy about Mordred.

However, now that Mordred has been ambushed by Fujimaru Kyoya, it's safe to let her go out without worrying about her being attacked.

After all, once bitten by a snake, twice shy.

Where will they go?

"Yes, because although that Pharaoh is a proud man, he also loves his people. He possesses the Holy Grail and has the ability to prolong his life; he won't take that risk."

Although the Crusaders launched the Eastern Expedition were wiped out by the King of Lions, the Holy Grail fell into the hands of Ramesses II, who used Holy Grail to keep his Reality Marble Temple of Grand Radiance, in the world for a long time.

Even after Humanity Incineration, he can still use the Holy Grail to prolong his life for a while. In order to allow his people to live a little longer, he will not take the initiative to cause trouble for the Holy City.

Because they all knew that the Humanity Incineration was unstoppable, a force that even gods could not resist.

Ramesses II might offer Chaldea some assistance, but not much, while the Old Man of the Mountain, whose motives are unclear, is a good candidate to win over.

What are your impressions of Chaldea?

"Just a bunch of immature girls."

Fujimaru Kyoya criticized his sister mercilessly; he truly couldn't imagine his sister, Ritsuka, going to save the world.

"So, are you willing to submit to me?"

Rongomyniad extended her hand again, understanding that Fujimaru Kyoya was now treating him as a partner, just as he had treated Vortigern years before.

But Rongomyniad desperately needed an ally.

The probability of Ramesses II and the Old Man of the Mountain joining forces is very low, but if they do, Rongomyniad will be in a very passive position.

In addition, there was Vortigern's hostile stance at this time, the seemingly loyal but potentially treacherous stance of the Knights of the Round Table, and some powers she was unaware of.

The Holy City, the strongest of the three powers, had long been teetering on the brink of collapse.

No, I still refuse.

"Why? You're clearly very disappointed in Chaldea's Master."

Rongomyniad could see the dissatisfaction Fujimaru Kyoya upon his return; it was obvious that he was disappointed in the Chaldea Master.

That's why she suggested again that Fujimaru Kyoya pledge allegiance to her, but this time she was still refused.

"Whether it was a pre-planned scheme or sheer luck, I didn't kill them, so they haven't lost yet."

Fujimaru Kyoya's approach to educating his younger sister was simple: he would let her do whatever she wanted, but he would also explain just how easy that path was.

"I want her to kneel on the ground, cry out about her naivety, lament her weakness, condemn her incompetence, and return to her original life."

Gentleness is a form of love, and so is strictness.

"Humans are truly incredible."

Rongomyniad could sense Fujimaru Kyoya's will, his expectations of humanity, and his demanding expectations of them.

Fujimaru Kyoya is the strictest with the people he values most.

He wasn't a patriarch in the traditional sense; he also considered that becoming Savior was a path his sister willingly chose, but that didn't stop him from showing her all the suffering he had endured.

"Let me witness your enlightenment."

Fujimaru Kyoya turned and left, even if it meant being a bad guy again, even if it meant beating his own sister so badly she couldn't get up from the ground.

It made Fujimaru Ritsuka her limits, made her feel boundless despair, made Fujimaru Ritsuka understand the absurdity of her naivety, and finally...

"If she can surpass her own limits, overcome boundless despair, and overcome ridiculous naivety to defeat me, then she can also defeat you, and she can defeat everything."

After leaving behind these words, Fujimaru Kyoya departed.

Only Rongomyniad remained in the main hall, sitting alone, watching the departing figure, lost in thought.

"Ooh~"

Suddenly, a headache throbbed through Rongomyniad, and all the memories of Artoria echoed in his mind.

"Lloyd ..."

Rongomyniad murmured to herself, but who was she at this moment?

Chapter 126 The Giant Flying Pillar 7/102

The journey to the Deep Mountain was progressing much slower than Fujimaru Kyoya had anticipated.

Deep in these Deep Mountain, there are not only fleeing refugees, but also Hassan of the Order of the Hashshashin and generations of Old Man of the Mountain.

Although these people were not as powerful as the original Old Man of the Mountain, each of them had extraordinary abilities and unique skills. Their fighting spirit and patience were astonishing, and their secret weapon Old Man of the Mountain, was an unexpected surprise.

Although the Old Man of the Mountain is not so easy to persuade, the sword hidden in its sheath is the most threatening thing.

Because of these people, the already heavily armored, Purification Knights moved even slower.

However, this was actually good for Fujimaru Kyoya. Judging from the timeline, the Chaldea group had been rejected by Ramesses II and would soon be heading towards the Deep Mountain.

They are few in number and have their own means of transportation, so they should be able to reunite with the others soon. With Chaldea's help, the people in the mountains might have some power to resist.

Was it all worth it?

Fujimaru Kyoya asked Mordred, since Tristan's personality had been changed by the "Reversal" blessing, turning his original sadness into joy and becoming a complete madman.

It's impossible to get anything more out of such a mentally disturbed person.

"I just wanted to help my father."

When Mordred abandoned her "Protagonist Script" and chose rebellion, and even used her death to "atone" for her sins, she resolved never to do anything to disappoint her father again.

"Even if there's a better way to solve this?"

"Even better? You yourself don't have high hopes for the Chaldea trip?"

After Rongomyniad's explanation, Mordred Humanity Incineration Formula, realizing that Chaldea's strength was insignificant.

That's why I'm going to give it a try.

Fujimaru Kyoya and deflected a rapidly approaching arrow. Judging from the force transmitted through the sword, the arrow was definitely an attack from Servant.

At the same time, a huge figure appeared out of thin air, its mountain-like body wearing a white skull mask, and the Hassan appeared in dense numbers.

"Doppelganger?"

Fujimaru Kyoya realized that these Hassan were all very weak, even by the standards of an Assassin, a class with relatively low stats.

There is no other possibility than Doppelganger.

"Something as weak as an ant, does it think it can stop us?"

Mordred looked at the Doppelganger with disdain. She had already seen the Noble Phantasm of this type of Doppelganger Noble Phantasm: the already weak Assassin stats would have very little left after such a split.

Those Hassan looked menacing, but in reality, they would have a hard time dealing with the Purification Knights, let alone getting the Knights of the Round Table to help.

"Such carelessness disqualifies one from being a king."

Strands of silk surrounded Mordred; this was not Tristan's sudden betrayal, but rather a way to protect Mordred.

A petite figure seemed to sense something and quickly stepped back, putting distance between herself and Mordred. Clearly, it was she who had intended to ambush Mordred.

"Are they hiding genuine products inside counterfeit or substandard goods?"

Mordred looked at Hassan, who had been forced out of the situation. Although Hassan wasn't particularly strong, he gave Mordred a sense of danger.

Is it poisonous?

"Although I'm not involved in your actions, the Hassan don't seem to intend to let me go."

Fujimaru Kyoya immediately left the spot, and in the instant he left, the attack from a Crimson Arm missed its target.

That wasn't a human arm at all; was it power obtained through a pact with some kind of being?

Fujimaru Kyoya frowned; he could sense that if he were touched by that thing, things would get really messy.

Assassin is a profession that, while not particularly strong individually, possesses deadly attack methods.

"Whoosh~"

Another arrow? Its direction is completely different from the first one. If the opponent doesn't have high-speed movement abilities, then they must have two Archers.

"You may not believe it, but I'm not with them."

Fujimaru Kyoya looked in the direction the arrow came from. There stood a handsome black-haired man with a cheerful smile, but for some reason, this guy... gave off a feeling that he wanted to be persecuted.

"Really? I don't believe it."

Arash is kind but not naive; Fujimaru Kyoya was chatting with the Knights of the Round Table earlier, but now he turns around and says he's not one of them.

This is Arash's doing; otherwise, which other Servant could endure such "humiliation"?

Indeed, I should have Independent Action.

Fujimaru Kyoya help but feel a headache coming on. In fact, even if he Independent Action, there was a huge drawback: he couldn't defend against the Old Man of the Mountain's assassination attempts. Being with the main force at least provided some protection.

If the first arrow was a warning, then what followed was entirely different.

Strong, vigorous.

It was just an ordinary arrow, but when Fujimaru Kyoya blocked it with his sword, it felt like he was blocking a siege engine with his sword.

What kind of incredibly strong muscles must be to shoot such a powerful arrow?

If we only consider archery skills, Arash's archery skills should be superior to Tristan's.

Fujimaru Kyoya was astonished by Arash's archery skills, but Arash was no less surprised than Fujimaru Kyoya.

Arash's physical body may not be considered an Innate Physique, but its strength is unmatched by many Servant, and even a casual arrow possesses combat power approaching that of Noble Phantasm.

This is Arash's strongest fighting method besides his Noble Phantasm "Stella".

If normal attacks didn't deal this much damage, wouldn't everyone just use their Noble Phantasm right from the start? Arash wouldn't stand a chance against Stella, no matter how many lives he had.

This is troublesome.

Arash continued to nock an arrow. It was rare throughout history for someone to be able to block his arrow so easily. If the situation had to be forced to a point where he had no choice but to consider using Stella.

At that moment, both Fujimaru Kyoya and Arash stopped their attacks, because they sensed another Mana rapidly approaching, and the direction it was coming from was...

"Is Ramesses II going to ally with the Hassan?"
