"Am I really that attractive to you?"
Red A, sprinting wildly in the distance, did not dare look back. He seemed genuinely terrified.
If you wanted to fight, then fight. Why did you have to find a support to back you up? Was there any fairness left at all?
"Of course! To be honest, among all the Servants in this Holy Grail War, you're the one I admire most!"
Everyone watched in bewilderment as Dog Brother chased Red A, who fled for his life, and the two quickly vanished from sight.
After a long while, Su Mo was the first to recover. He coughed and said, "Let's go. The final barrier leading to the Holy Grail has disappeared. Nothing can stop us now."

The Final Barrier
Dog Brother and Red A—a mage and an Archer—were engaged in close-quarters combat with a cudgel and twin blades.
It was normal enough for Red A, a close-combat Archer, to fight hand-to-hand. But Dog Brother was a mage, and after Su Mo had strengthened him to the point that his attributes far surpassed Red A's, he did not even use Rune Magic. Instead, he swung his cudgel at Red A with great flair, even faintly suppressing him!
All right, enough about those two. Su Mo, Mash, Kiyohime, and the Director moved forward without obstruction. Any minor monsters that leaped out along the way were either burned to death by Kiyohime or smashed to death by Mash's shield.
"Senpai, are we really going to keep heading toward the Greater Grail without doing anything about Mr. Cú Chulainn?" Mash asked worriedly.
"Yeah. Cú Chulainn just needs to hold Archer back. He's happy to do it anyway. We'll go take Saber down—that's the plan." Walking at the front, Su Mo explained, "Remember, Saber is the key figure in this Singularity. She guards the Holy Grail and is the most important part of this Holy Grail War. So don't overthink it. Our mission is to defeat Saber with everything we have, seize the Holy Grail, and repair this Singularity!"
Su Mo was extremely nervous about fighting Black Saber. Saber was Fate's poster girl, after all. Especially after she had been corrupted, the Excalibur in her hands was far stronger than before, and she still retained that beam attack!
If Su Mo had not possessed such outstanding support abilities as a Servant, he would not have dared to bring starting-level Mash and low-rarity Kiyohime charging straight through. He would have cautiously taken Mash's shield, placed a Saint Graph on it, and summoned some top-tier muscle, or waited for the once-a-day chance to use a Summoning Ticket before pushing onward.
They continued according to plan. If the anime's plot was correct, then once they broke through here, they could fight Black Saber head-on.
But just as they were about to pass through the cavern, an enormous crash suddenly rang out!
As the dust gradually dispersed, a Servant with a gigantic body emerged from the shadows and revealed himself before them.
The massive axe wreathed in black mist, abs that would put even fitness coaches to shame, that gloomy aura, and that mop-like black hair all unmistakably gave away his identity!
"Wasn't Berserker supposed to have lost his mind? Wasn't he supposed to leave us alone as long as we didn't provoke him? Then can someone tell me why this dumb giant Berserker is here?" The moment Su Mo recognized Berserker, he felt countless alpacas stampeding through his heart!
That was right! He was Berserker Heracles, known as the strongest hero in Greek Mythology. He stood before them like a towering mountain propping up the heavens!
This wasn't the movie plot at all—it was the game plot, wasn't it? Su Mo cursed inwardly.
"M-Master, I can feel an incredibly powerful pressure coming from that Shadow Servant. How strange... None of the Shadow Servants we encountered before ever gave me this feeling."
For once, Kiyohime showed the vulnerable side of a young woman. Pale-faced, she hid behind Su Mo, moving him so deeply that his heart was a complete mess.
Yes, he was deeply moved—so moved that he painfully covered his face.
"You're a Servant, and a Berserker at that, yet you're hiding behind me? How am I supposed to deal with that? Shouldn't you be putting on a fearless expression and saying something like, 'Don't worry, Master. As long as I'm here, I'll never let Master suffer even the slightest harm...'? You know that if I die, you'll have to return to the Hall of Heroes too!"
"Senpai, watch out!"
The one thing that pleased Su Mo was that Mash raised her shield and fearlessly stepped in front of him.
But that was no use, because Su Mo knew that even if Mash had reached her final ascension, she would not be Heracles's match. After all, this was the Berserker from FGO who dared challenge the developers: "Go ahead and release whatever events you want. If I can't solo them, I lose!"
