The Long-Awaited Sibling Duel

Can Servant's weapon be destroyed?

Although such a thing is extremely rare, Fujimaru Kyoya understands that it can indeed be destroyed; otherwise, Lancelot's Unbroken Lake Light's inherent "indestructible" characteristic would be nothing more than a decoration.

As Holy Sword, the Sword of Perpetual Purity is indeed not easily destroyed, but that does not mean it is indestructible, especially when faced with a Servant's dying blow.

A gigantic hand pierced through the dark clouds and pressed down. Fujimaru Kyoya was restrained, and his body was severely injured, making it impossible for him to withstand the attack.

Now Fujimaru Kyoya has two paths to choose from: one is to break free with all his might and kill Sanzang, and then face her dying blow head-on once again.

The other option is to turn and leave, Sanzang will die from his own attack, and Fujimaru Kyoya's weapon will be destroyed. What should he choose?

Fujimaru Kyoya chose to preserve his own condition as much as possible, abandoning his sword and immediately moving away from the area covered by the giant hand.

"Boom!"

After the palm fell, it transformed into a mountain, sealing Sanzang's body and Fujimaru Kyoya's Holy Sword within it.

Clearly, this Sandlewood Merit Buddha days were numbered, was also worried that he would not be able to destroy the Holy Sword with a single blow. In that case, he might as well choose a safer way and seal it inside.

"A remarkable seal. Even it would take me quite a while to retrieve the sword from inside. But it won't be able to maintain that seal after you die, will it?"

Fujimaru Kyoya watched as the Sea-Calming Needle slowly disappeared, and the previously out-of-control rain gradually returned to his senses.

His perception of this Reality Marble returned, and he naturally sensed the attack from behind.

Fujimaru Kyoya gently tilted his head to the side, dodging the longsword behind him. Then, rainwater gathered in his hand, and when he grasped the longsword formed from rainwater, it became a D-rank Noble Phantasm.

"Clang~"

Despite being a sword forged from rainwater, it emitted a metallic sound, clearly indicating that this sword had reached the standard of "use" for Fujimaru Kyoya.

"As a Shielder, to abandon your shield and choose your sword to fight me is a foolish decision."

Fujimaru Kyoya looked behind Mash, where the girl's shield was placed beside her Master, its Mana energy confidently circulating to construct a small Barrier protecting the person inside.

Rainwater began to gather behind Fujimaru Kyoya, and swords formed from the rainwater floated to the side like wings, waiting to be replaced after the sword in Fujimaru Kyoya's hand collapsed.

Mash was finding it increasingly difficult. As a Shielder-class character, her main abilities lay in defense, and she didn't have much offensive power to begin with. How could she possibly win against someone like Fujimaru Kyoya, who seemed to grow stronger with each battle?

"Bang!"

Fujimaru Kyoya punched Mash away and returned to the area around the shield. He realized that this girl was a rare friend of his sister, and also a Pseudo-Servant, a living person who gained combat power by possessing Servant.

Therefore, we can't kill them like we would other Servant.

Seriously injure her.

"Chaldea, I'll say it again: you still haven't demonstrated enough strength to prove yourselves. Your resolve and power are still insufficient."

Fujimaru Kyoya raised his hand, and more swords formed from rainwater appeared. Sharp blades hung in the sky like a beaded curtain, locking onto their target.

"Mash, are you alright?"

"Senior... I still have my last bit of strength."

Mash stood up.

Yes, she is not Servant skilled in combat, but Servant who exists to protect those she cares about.

"Rongomyniad will witness your funeral."

The light from the Golden Tree fell upon the raindrops, coating them with a layer of gold leaf. Then, the falling blades seemed to shower down gold from the sky, a breathtaking sight.

"My true name, revealed—I stand on the throne of Calamity— "

Mash gripped the shield in her hand, pouring all her Mana into it. Following her instincts, she recalled the name of the Servant on her body.

A majestic and sacred city appeared all around, the ideal city of Knight, a place that once existed but is now lost.

"That is our homeland, capable of healing all wounds and all resentment. Reveal it! The Already Distant Ideal City!"

Golden Rain, and the Holy City appeared.

Countless attacks were neutralized before this city, and then... a counterattack.

Chapter 140 The Long-Awaited Sibling Duel

As a class specializing in defense, Shielder lacks sufficient offensive means, a fact that Mash understands deeply; her only offensive weapon is her Noble Phantasm.

Noble Phantasm that absorbs attacks and then reflects them back.

Now that she has found the Servant's true name, there is nothing left for her to fear.

The golden rain was reflected back, and endless streams of rain shot out. Fujimaru Kyoya could not dodge this inescapable net of attacks, not to mention that he was injured at the time.

The tattered armor finally collapsed. Under the impact of the sharp rain, Fujimaru Kyoya's armor was completely shattered, and he was forced to retreat step by step, with blood constantly oozing from his wounds.

The mixture of blood and water caused Fujimaru Kyoya's already limited stamina to be depleted even faster.

Retreat, and keep retreating.

Fujimaru Kyoya retreated to the Golden Tree, until he had nowhere left to retreat, and finally took on all the remaining damage.

"We finally won."

Mash let out a long sigh of relief. After sacrificing so many Servant, she had finally defeated this formidable enemy...

"Bang!"

A splash of water gathered behind her head and then suddenly exploded, making Mash feel as if she had been hit on the head with a club, her head immediately spinning.

"I'm going to launch a sneak attack."

Fujimaru Kyoya slowly got up, then controlled the water flow to bind Mash's body to the ground. With the next few rounds of attacks, he finally knocked her unconscious.

Finally... I can have a proper talk with you, Ritsuka.

"Mash."

"No need to waste Command Seal. It was just a brief fainting spell, not a fatal injury. It seems that this girl isn't mature enough either, except for you."

Fujimaru Kyoya walked over slowly, and as he did so, he took Mash's sword and stuck it in front of his sister.

Should I take my grip on the sword?

Fujimaru Kyoya looked at the girl before him; her body trembled slightly, whether from anger or fear, he couldn't tell.

Who exactly are you?

"Blade of Vortigern, Lloyd."

"I don't know you, why are you targeting me like this?"

Fujimaru Ritsuka gripped the hilt of her sword, leaned against it as she stood up, and looked at the "enemy" before her.

If the person in front of her wanted to kill her, they would have had countless opportunities just now, but now that she is completely unprepared, the "enemy" still hasn't killed her.

"I just think you're immature, I think you're still naive, like right now."

Fujimaru Kyoya punched his younger sister. To be honest, this was the first time he had ever hit his sister. He was heartbroken and wished that his sister would suffer some setbacks like she did when she was little and then sit on the ground crying and calling out "brother".

But he was disappointed.

The girl who had been knocked down rose with a defiant look in her eyes, ignoring the mud and water covering her body, and swung her heavy sword at him.

Sword skills untested in any real combat seemed to attempt to communicate with the rain between heaven and earth, but unfortunately, it was all in vain.

"Clang~"

Fujimaru Kyoya easily blocked the attack.

"Why did you lower your guard so quickly? The Reality Marble hasn't completely dissipated yet; this was due to your carelessness."

Fujimaru Kyoya was furious at his lack of ambition.

"What if the enemy pretends to be dead next time? Will you have another chance?"

Fujimaru Kyoya marveled at his sister's good fortune, having encountered only righteous enemies along the way. However, one cannot entrust one's fate to the weakness of one's enemies.

Another punch.

Fujimaru Kyoya hit his sister again.

"Too weak, too weak, how can you save the world?"

"But who else could it be but me?"

Fujimaru Ritsuka got up again. As she said, everything except Chaldea was destroyed, and she was the only one in Chaldea who could adapt to being Master.

Only she could do it, so she did it.

"How about leaving it to me?"

With the two sides at an impasse, Fujimaru Kyoya gave his answer: his sister had absolutely no need to go to such a dangerous place.

Can you win?

"I have a final insurance policy."

Fujimaru Kyoya understood that even if he reached the Grand Time Temple, he wouldn't be able to defeat Solomon, but he still had one last insurance policy.

The Holy Grail War of 2004—if we can grasp the outcome of that Holy Grail War, then the entire future can be rewritten.

This is Fujimaru Kyoya's last trump card.

This is not the answer.

Fujimaru Ritsuka wouldn't be fooled by such rhetoric. If she could do it, she could do it; if she couldn't, she couldn't do it. If the other party didn't acknowledge her abilities, then she wouldn't accept such an ambiguous answer.

Then... she was knocked to the ground again.

"But you have no power."

The words of the "enemy" stung more than a fist. Fujimaru Ritsuka felt the muddy water on the ground. This cold feeling not only made her body lose temperature, but also made her heart gradually grow cold.

This time, however, the "enemy" did not give her a chance to get back up.

The fist landed.

"Admit defeat, and I'll let you go."

"Don't want."

A firm rebuttal earned an even firmer punch.

"This isn't the time for childish tantrums. I told you to admit defeat now."

I already said no.

This scene resembles a children's quarrel, where one party's demands are not met, so they resort to violence to force the other party to submit.

Fujimaru Kyoya, and for the first time he understood why this kind of "for your own good" situation was bound to occur.

Unable to communicate verbally, with utterly opposing values, the final result... is a violent outburst of impotent rage.

How ugly.

Fujimaru Kyoya consider how distorted and ugly his face looked. But what was he supposed to do now?

Having gone through numerous simulations, he has never married or had children, and he doesn't know any way to communicate with younger generations. Even when taking on apprentices, he would never encounter such "rebellion."

The color red, the color of blood, appeared, which brought Fujimaru Kyoya back to his senses.

Did I make Ritsuka bleed?

Even though Fujimaru Kyoya was determined to break his sister's legs, he still wavered when the time came.

His sister was unconscious in the mud, Fujimaru Kyoya covered his face, questioning himself about what he was saying.

"Elder brother..."

A faint sound came from the ground, where Fujimaru Ritsuka.

"Brother? Your brother won't come to save you. You have to walk your own path in life."

"Brother, I... I'll come to save you."

Fujimaru Kyoya was dazed. In his sister's eyes, he must have been involved in the Humanity Incineration, so she wanted to Humanity Incineration.

"No matter the cost, I will never... I will never give up."

Fujimaru Ritsuka seemed to have come to her senses, and she leaned on her sword, trying to get up.
