What Do You Mean, the Boss Saw the Protagonist and Ran Away? (Continued)
At least in Young Gilgamesh's view, Mo Wang had long since transcended the concept of Projection; it would be more accurate to say that it was the manifestation of fantasy.
"This is truly outrageous! He merely made a casual move, yet it already created a power far exceeding that of the Gate of Babylon. He truly deserves to be the Deliverance I have my eye on."
As Angelica's Gate of Babylon was continuously suppressed by Mo Wang, Beatrice, who had been kicked away by Mo Wang earlier, stood up again.
"Go to hell!"
Beatrice roared, Mjolnir, crackling with thunder, slammed down on Mo Wang once more.
The sheer scale of the attack was so immense that it seemed to transform the surrounding area into a sea of thunder.
However, Mo Wang merely turned to the side indifferently, and a Flame Spear suddenly appeared in his hand.
He didn't dodge the incoming Mjolnir, but instead met it head-on with his Flame Spear!
"I already gave you a chance."
"Clang--!!!"
Amidst a deafening explosion, scorching flames and raging thunder collided violently!
Before Beatrice's incredulous eyes, the invincible Mjolnir in her hand, where the hammerhead made contact with the Flame Spear, suddenly cracked with countless spiderweb-like fissures—before exploding with a deafening roar! Countless fragments, carrying with them the remaining lightning and flames, scattered in all directions!
The Flame Spear continued its relentless advance, aimed straight at Beatrice's heart!
At this critical moment—
"301-Second Eternal Ice Palace!"
Darius's cold voice rang out.
In Setsuna, countless enormous, thick walls of ice, shimmering with absolute zero light, rose from the ground! Layer upon layer, they instantly formed a complex and solid ice labyrinth, completely trapping Mo Wang within. The extreme cold even made Chloe and the others watching from afar shiver.
The tip of the Flame Spear aimed at Beatrice was blocked by a sudden surge of extreme ice, emitting a loud "hiss--" sound and sending up a cloud of white mist, and was indeed stopped.
"I'm... I'm saved..." Beatrice collapsed to the ground, panting heavily with lingering fear.
"Hmph, trapped, are you?" Darius's voice came through the ice wall, tinged with mockery.
But before he could finish speaking, a terrifying heatwave suddenly erupted from inside the ice palace!
Deep within the ice palace, Mo Wang was engulfed in raging flames. These flames were no ordinary things, radiating a terrifying power capable of incinerating everything.
"You think ice of this strength can trap me?"
He clenched his right fist, and Destruction fire energy gathered wildly. Then, he simply threw a punch at the ice labyrinth that trapped him!
Snap—Boom!
That powerful barrier Noble Phantasm, capable of withstanding a strike from the Pseudo-Spiral Sword and remaining completely unscathed, began to disintegrate, vaporize, and vanish without a trace from its very core when faced with this punch that incinerated everything!
A massive shockwave, carrying a scorching storm, spread outwards, making it almost impossible for everyone to open their eyes.
When the storm subsided, all that remained before them was Mo Wang, standing proudly, and the remnants of the ice palace behind him, which had been completely evaporated and erased.
"It actually shattered with a single blow?"
Looking at the shattered ice palace, even Enzworth had to admit that he was genuinely panicking.
"Dad! We... we have to run away!"
"That guy is terrifying!"
At this moment, Erika, standing next to Darius, looked at Darius with a face full of panic.
I never imagined that something like the Ice Palace couldn't even withstand a single punch from Mo Wang.
No wonder those Archon had such strange expressions when they heard he was going to deal with Mo Wang; they were waiting for him here.
"Heh, truly worthy of being called the infamous Demon King."
"They shattered my prized Noble Phantasm so easily."
Darius clapped his hands and said to Mo Wang with admiration.
"This forces me to use my strongest methods."
"Oh? What other tricks do you have up your sleeve?" Mo Wang slammed the Flame Spear into the ground, and instantly, crimson flames enveloped the surroundings.
This time, it was Darius's turn to be trapped by Mo Wang.
What other tricks do you have up your sleeve?
"Heh, try them all out, otherwise you won't have another chance later."
Mo Wang spoke in a chilling tone, accompanied by the scene of flames engulfing the surroundings; calling this a demonic scene would not be an exaggeration.
"Haha, how merciful!"
"However, I'm not so easy to deal with."
Suddenly, Darius, Mo Wang had been watching, unleashed an astonishing burst of magical power.
Just when Mo Wang thought the other side was preparing some powerful move, suddenly, the members of the Ainsworth Family vanished into thin air.
Goodbye!
In the blink of an eye, not only Mo Wang, but also Gilles de Rais and the others behind him, did not expect that the Enzworth family, who had just acted like a big boss, would actually run away when faced with Mo Wang.
Everyone: (°ー°)
No, is that right?
When the main villain faced the protagonist group, instead of saying anything like "let them go" or making any threats, he simply ran away. What does that mean?
Is this still a boss?
Looking at the empty space in front of them, everyone scratched their heads and then glanced at Mo Wang beside them.
Or is it that we're actually the bosses, and they're the main characters?
"What the hell?! How did he get away?!"
Mo Wang was genuinely bewildered.
Just a moment ago, that strange old man looked fierce, and his pupils were even black; he looked like he was about to unleash a powerful attack.
In the blink of an eye, they disappeared without a trace.
This is so shameless!
"They ran away."
At this moment, Tanaka, who had been silent in the back, looked up and glanced at Mo Wang.
"I know! But how did it get there? Teleportation?"
"No, that's the Ainsworth Family's [Displacement] Magecraft. Clearly, he started this from the very beginning."
Tanaka spread his hands, looking somewhat helpless.
"So! You knew the information perfectly well, but you didn't tell me, did you! You two girls, are you trying to drive me crazy?!"
In a fit of extreme rage, Mo Wang grabbed Tanaka's face and began to pull and tug at it.
Under the stunned gazes of everyone, Tanaka's face stretched to a length of half a meter.
"Ouch~ I was wrong! I didn't expect the other person to act so quickly~"
"In this timeline, Alaya has been sealed away, so it can only move around in this body, and then it lost its memory."
Tanaka, or rather Gaia, looked at Mo Wang with a pitiful expression.
"You have the nerve to say that! These people have been making a scene for so long, and not a single one of them has come to deliver a message to me!"
"You expect me to guess myself?! That's enough!"
Mo Wang kneaded Gaia's face for a long time before she finally calmed down and put her down, her face almost distorted.
"Ouch! My face is all distorted!"
Gaia rubbed her swollen face, inwardly complaining that Mo Wang was truly oblivious to romance.
Even though my body isn't the same as before, I can't just mold it however I want.
He has absolutely no sense of mercy.
"Ugh, so annoying."
"I thought I'd run into Goetia's gang after I got here, but it seems those guys aren't planning on making a move yet."
"And I prepared so much for nothing."
Mo Wang made a comment while glancing at Emiya Hero and the others.
"Gurgle~"
Seeing that Mo Wang was looking at them, from Emiya Hero to Illya Miyu, they all couldn't help but swallow hard.
There's no way around it; what Mo Wang just did was truly terrifying.
Those Servant take down an enemy with a single punch, those Noble Phantasm that can be delivered with a single punch—they're practically monsters in human skin!
If this kind of guy were an enemy, just thinking about it would send shivers down your spine.
"Hey buddy, are you okay?"
Just then, Mo Wang's gaze fell upon the Emiya Hero.
"Wh-what?" Emiya Hero who had been called out by Mo Wang, suddenly shuddered.
"I'm telling you, your stomach has such a big gash, isn't it serious?"
"And what about you? Holy crap. Are you planning to cosplay Griffith?"
"Who is Griffith?" Emiya Hero, didn't quite understand what Mo Wang meant.
However, upon hearing Mo Wang's words, the Emiya Hero still glanced down at his stomach.
"I do feel a little dizzy."
As soon as he finished speaking, Emiya almost collapsed.
"Hey! You trying to scam me, huh?!"
"You've all been injured so badly, so all of you Shirou Emiya like fighting while seriously injured?"
After making a comment, Mo Wang called out to Chloe, Illya, and the others behind him.
"Hey! Chloe! And you over there, Illya, come over here and help this guy up, or don't blame me if he dies!"
"Huh?! Why should I help you up?" Chloe exploded upon hearing Mo Wang's words.
"You're not coming? Then I'll just leave it on the ground."
As soon as Mo Wang said that, Miyu ran over, and even Illya followed.
Although she wasn't her own brother, Illya rushed over as soon as she heard that Mo Wang was going to throw Emiya Shirou.
"Let go of my senior!"
Just as Mo Wang was about to abandon the Emiya Hero, a familiar scent and a familiar voice suddenly came from behind him.
Sakura, who had seemed to be AFK the whole timeline, suddenly appeared, clad in black armor, and charged towards them.
Looking at this neither-human-nor-ghost appearance, Mo Wang didn't even recognize that it was actually Sakura at first glance.
"What the hell?"
Seeing Sakura rushing towards him, Mo Wang instinctively raised his right hand.
"Have mercy! She's my junior!"
Seeing Mo Wang raise his fist, the Emiya Hero disregarded his own pain and hurriedly shouted at Mo Wang.
"Huh? Sakura?"
Mo Wang stared at Sakura, whose strange attire was even weirder than the Heaven's Feel route, and punched her directly.
Instantly, this completely corrupted Sakura was rendered silent by Mo Wang.
Seeing Sakura sprawled on the ground in a Emiya Hero position, Emiya couldn't hold back any longer and fainted on the spot.
"Emiya Shirou!"
"Elder brother!"
Looking at the unconscious Emiya Hero behind him, Mo Wang couldn't help but scratch his head.
