As the most famous hero in the Ulster Cycle of Celtic Mythology, Cu Chulainn had obtained a magic spear from his master, Scathach, in the Land of Shadows.
It was Cu Chulainn's killing move and trump card—a supreme technique capable of reversing the causality between the order of events.
Once this spear was released, the "result" of its target's "heart being pierced" was already created at the instant of its release, making it impossible to reverse.
In other words, once unleashed, it was guaranteed to pierce the enemy's heart. It was a Noble Phantasm that could truly kill with a single strike. Even if its wielder was killed first, as long as the spear's power had been genuinely released, it would still follow the laws of causality and pierce the enemy's heart.
Thus, although this Noble Phantasm was merely an Anti-Person Noble Phantasm and only B-rank, its single-strike killing effect was astonishing. Used properly, it would be more practical and effective than even a Noble Phantasm of an exorbitant rank.
There was no more terrifying Noble Phantasm than this.
There was no more troublesome killing move than this.
Because the causality of "the heart being pierced" had already been created, the spear's trajectory was almost impossible to perceive. It would follow a trajectory that was certain to pierce the heart. Unless someone possessed astonishingly powerful luck and happened to avoid their vital point, most enemies would fall beneath this spear.
At this moment, the power of such a magic spear was unleashed.
Moreover, this spear's power far surpassed the legends. It had been thrown with astonishing force, displaying not only its instant-kill effect but also tremendous power and speed.
A magic spear like this had already surpassed its original B-rank, even exceeding the limits of an Anti-Person Noble Phantasm and
