"Clang—!"
Brilliant golden light suddenly surged from Sakura Matou like a tide, spreading in every direction and instantly filling every corner of the room, illuminating the entire space.
"—?!"
Rin Tohsaka, Saber, and Rider were all startled at once. Instinctively, they raised their hands before their faces, trying to block out the blinding golden light.
Yet in the next moment, what appeared before the three girls left them all astonished.
"Hummm—!"
Amid a trembling hum, an Ornate Scabbard slowly emerged from Sakura Matou's body, which was glowing with golden light. It floated above Sakura Matou, who lay on the bed, radiating a stunning brilliance.
The instant she saw that scabbard, Saber's lovely face changed dramatically. Even her gem-like eyes trembled uncontrollably before finally filling with disbelief.
Rin Tohsaka and Rider, meanwhile, were simply astonished.
Astonished that such a scabbard had existed inside Sakura Matou.
Rin Tohsaka, in particular, blurted out in shock.
"What is that?"
Noah did not answer Rin Tohsaka's question immediately. Instead, he reached out and gently brushed his hand over the scabbard's surface.
As Noah's hand stroked it, a glimmer of light flashed over the Ornate Scabbard. As though responding to Noah, it grew increasingly radiant.
At last, Noah firmly grasped the scabbard known as Avalon in his hand.
Only then did the brilliant light illuminating the entire room gradually fade, finally stopping after it became like a thin film of light covering the scabbard's surface.
At a glance, it looked as though Noah were holding a ray of light in his hand, making the sight incredibly beautiful.
