Everything happened too fast, far beyond what the naked eye could keep up with. All she could feel was the scorching wind blowing past her and the roars of the Servant she could hear.

"Drink—! Don't underestimate me, you bastard!"

This wild the Roar came from the Rebellious Knight. The demonic sword in the silver Saber's hand emitted a wild howl, and crimson lightning surged into the sky like a torrent.

However, the essence of Magecraft Release Noble Phantasm is the size of their "scale". Compared to Goetia's enormous magic power, Saber, with her ordinary Spirit Origin, was utterly vulnerable and was instantly annihilated by the golden light without even a moment's resistance.

Despair!

At this moment, neither Tamamo-no-Mae nor Leinys could change the situation. In a few moments, last Master of Humanity would turn to ashes along with her Servant, and all hope for Human Order would be extinguished.

Boom!

To everyone's surprise, the golden beam of light did not strike Ritsuka Fujimaru, but instead veered slightly and shot towards a deserted corner.

Almost at the same moment Mordred's Noble Phantasm was engulfed, seven semi-transparent barriers appeared in the void, blocking the brilliant stream of light... Collapse!

Collapse! Collapse! Collapse!

Like trying to stop a flood with glass, it was inevitably shattered and evaporated!

This bought them a little time, and the next moment the azure-blue giant warrior tore through the darkness, raising his greatsword and swinging it down with all his might—

Boom!!!!

The collision of the two forces triggered terrifying fluctuations. Light and space were kneaded like clay, and after a moment of stalemate, they erupted with a chaotic radiance that devoured everything!

"Danger, senior!"

Even though a considerable amount of time had passed, the aftershocks inevitably reached this place. Mash stepped forward without hesitation to block the two of them and loudly shouted out her Noble Phantasm.

"[Pseudo-Deployment of Human Order Foundation (Lord Chaldeas)] "

!

Pure light shone on the shield, and intricate Magecraft circles summoned a white wall, protecting Mash and the two people behind her.

The wave surged in and collided with the city wall. The unimaginable power, even after penetrating the Noble Phantasm, still brought Mash an irresistible pressure. The Demi-Servant girl let out a mournful cry, feeling as if all the bones and muscles in her body were about to twist and break under the immense pressure.

However, even so, the girl did not give up. Her eyes remained so firm as she protected Ritsuka and the Servant, never retreating a single step!

"Hmm, this is..."

After the ripples subsided, a broken, one-armed giant swung his sword, cleaving through the smoke and dust. The wind pressure shot out like a giant blade, but vanished before it could hit Goetia.

It was neither resisted nor resolved, but rather as if it had never existed.

The difference is indeed huge!

—Iori slowly exhaled, and with a thought, dispelled the Giant Phantom.

The Progenitor of Magic, Crest Spirit Base, Beast of Mercy, possessing wisdom that knows the past and future, an immortal being of conceptual level, a transcendent being who can change history at will, and also possessing a "halo" created by Burning away all of Human History, capable of burning the entire surface of the earth in an instant and rewinding the world Rotation the beginning of time...

In short, we can't win!

Although Iori also wanted to say something polite, she was probably just putting on a brave face. As someone once said, if you don't have the corresponding ability, then fierce words will expose your weakness.

This is probably the first time... I've encountered such a hopeless opponent.

But it's really strange...

Why would the Goetia of this world know his name? Does it mean that the Clairvoyance can even observe parallel worlds?

But if Goetia could really see the Worldline of the "reincarnation version of Chaldea", his mentality would probably have collapsed long ago. How could he still treat this newbie Guda with this attitude?

Moreover, although he couldn't explain why, from the moment he met this "Goetia" until their initial probing exchange, Iori felt more "shock" and "doubt" than much fear.

It was quite unusual. Iori hadn't yet seen through life and death, and this world was so beautiful to him; he should have felt some reluctance to leave.

It feels like... watching a wild beast through a television screen.

Intuition?

"Call!"

Iori paused for a moment, then Earth Flow forward to meet the Demon God King's scrutinizing gaze.

Encountering the Demon God King from a parallel world was indeed unexpected; his usually good luck had turned to its absolute worst today. But since things had come to this, and there was no turning back anyway, he might as well trust his intuition.

I bet you don't have any JPG bullets in your Great Holy Calendar!

"There's actually a master here?!"

Just when they were about to give up, another person suddenly appeared and blocked "King Solomon's" attack, much to the surprise of the Chaldea!

"Servant that summoned spontaneously, and it's been hiding all this time?"

Leinys was initially stunned for a moment, but quickly cheered up, "There's still a chance!"

Regardless of why Iori hid and never made contact with Chaldea, the fact that "King Solomon" launched an attack without hesitation at least indicates that he is not on the enemy's side!

Moreover, everyone heard what Solomon said just now. He called this suddenly appearing Servant "Susanoo," and later mentioned "Aizen."

If Leinys is not mistaken, the former refers to Susanoo-no-Mikoto, one of the Three Noble Children in Japanese mythology, while the latter sounds like Aizen- Aizen -ō in Buddhism.

Although she didn't know why the two were connected, Leinys wasn't surprised:

Buddhism has also been passed down in Japan and even formed its own school. The Japan like to connect foreign deities with local myths and legends, and there are even sayings such as "Tamamo-no-Mae is Daji" and "King Bishamon of the North is Bishamonten".

These are all considered relatively reliable, since many myths are fan fiction. But the most outrageous ones are those that connect Genghis Khan with Minamoto no Yoshitsune!

(This is actually caused by political factors. Since the 19th and 20th centuries, Japan has created many theories to distort history, and this is just one of them.)

The ultimate goal is to undermine China culture. Many conspiracy theories and bloodline theories in low-quality articles originate from this, such as the ridiculous claim that the Li Tang dynasty was inhabited by Xianbei people... In short, don't be misled.

The Japan are very good at drastically modifying things!

Therefore, it can be inferred that Japan gods are likely also adept at disguising themselves, and it would not be surprising if they were summoned in any form.

Very good!

No matter how powerful the "Grand" Servants are, now that we have a God-tier Servant help us, we can at least hold our own!

— Leinys's wishful thinking is wonderful.

But if she knew Goetia's true identity and strength, her reaction would definitely be different.

"I never expected that the famous Demon God King, Goetia, would have heard of my name."

Iori looked at the other person frankly and said calmly, but "unintentionally" brought up the title of Demon God King.

The Chaldea did not react in any particular way. According to legend, Solomon was a super summoner who commanded demons, so calling him the Demon God King was quite reasonable.

"Goetia" is a famous passage from the occult classic "The Key of Solomon," referring to the Seventy-Two Pillars of Demon Gods.

Western tradition loves to bestow various honorific titles upon Lord or great figures, to the point that the opening introductions are so elaborate that one almost needs to take a few breaths of oxygen to catch their breath. Simply having the name "Goetia" wouldn't seem out of place.

Goetia's response was equally indifferent. His bronze eyes reflected Iori's image, and he chuckled, "After all, you are a noteworthy individual. An interesting Servant like you, regardless of your strength, could become a pawn to manipulate the game. And what I hate most is an existence that cannot be controlled at As One Pleases."

They are just ants; they should just accept their fate. Why should the weak resist?

—That's what Goetia meant in his words.

Iori inexplicably laughed; from just that one sentence, he had already gleaned a great deal of information:

This guy wasn't surprised at all when he heard "Demon God King"!

Knowing Iori's real name could be attributed to observation using "Clairvoyance" or some other ability, since Goetia possesses all the Magecraft in the world and has numerous methods that are difficult to guard against.

However, Iori should have never met him before, yet she was able to identify him in one sentence... Shouldn't that be strange under normal circumstances?

Therefore, it can be concluded that, in Goetia's understanding, Iori had a way of knowing about his existence and related information, which is why he used the title "Demon God King".

Interestingly, the intersection of Iori and Goetia theoretically only has one Chaldea, and it is a "reincarnation version of Chaldea".

Things seemed to be getting interesting— Iori felt incredibly calm.

There was no point in feeling nervous or afraid. Although he had been quite wary of this Demon God King before, he suddenly felt relieved after actually talking to him face to face.

"I apologize, Master of Chaldea. I had some concerns before, so I didn't show myself."

Iori did not try to get more information out of Goetia. As Demon God King with "wisdom beyond human comprehension", Iori could not outsmart him with mere tricks. Even from the conversation just now, Iori suspected that Goetia knew that information would be leaked, but his arrogance made him disdain to conceal it.

So, Iori turned her conversation to short-haired Guda: "Nice to meet you... I am a Servant of the [Berserker] Servant, and people call me 'Susanoo'."

We were originally supposed to come as friendly forces to support you, but due to various reasons, it's been delayed until now. We're truly sorry.

"Wow!"

Ritsuka immediately became excited. "Mash, look, it really is Susanoo! We're saved now!"

At this moment of utter despair, a powerful deity suddenly appeared, and to make matters worse, he was from the same hometown. Ritsuka's mood improved rapidly, like riding a rollercoaster.

However, Iori smiled helplessly, "It may be a bit discouraging... but the situation hasn't changed at all."

For this 'King Solomon,' one more or one less makes no difference... the win rate remains 0, no different from before.

"Ugh! What... how could this be..."

Ritsuka was visibly disappointed, but quickly regained her confidence. "No matter what, more help means more possibilities!"

Moreover, to step forward and help us at such a time, regardless of the outcome, thank you so much, Berserker!

"... Truly, they are Human Order's last hope."

Iori nodded and said, "At the very least, I will fight to the very last moment, so please rest assured."

"Yes! Let's work together, we definitely won't fail!"

Mash nodded vigorously, "Senpai, no matter what happens, please let me stand in front of you!"

"Ha! That's hilarious!"

The Demon God King scoffed, "You think you can Saving Human Order? If it's a contest of shamelessness, I'd have to admit defeat. You know nothing, yet you drag your exhausted body forward... How ugly, how ignorant!"

Humanity, in its so-called end, couldn't even be called beautiful!

"King Solomon, why do you want to Destroy Human Order?"

Holding her Tamamo-no-Mae loudly asked, "Like other Servant, is it to make up for regrets in your previous life? Or is it because you feel indignant about your life's circumstances that you want to rebel against your [god]?!"

Answer me, King Solomon!

"Narrow-minded... Is this the only level of your understanding?"

There is no one above me, and I am not a Servant like you, no different from Servant. I am a true Heroic Spirit!

"The destruction of humanity is not due to regrets in life, but rather a conclusion I reached after death, and I have taken action to achieve it. My will is to sweep you scum into the furnace and utterly destroy you."

Goetia looked down at the crowd indifferently. "Even if we struggle, it's pointless, because the moment I made this decision, the world's fate was already sealed."

"Damn it... that pretentious guy!"

Do you think you can do it?

Ritsuka couldn't help but retort immediately, "There will definitely be people who stop you, Mash, the doctor, Da Vinci... and me and so many other heroes, everyone in Chaldea will definitely stop you!"

"Ha, how boring!"

"Actually, I've already accomplished my plan. Hasn't your era been destroyed? Now you're nothing but insects clinging to life in the embers after the flames, not even worth stepping on!"

Leinys, who had been observing Solomon, suddenly spoke up, "So, those Demon God Pillars are the tools you used to destroy the foundations of Human Order by throwing them at various Singularity?"

But this doesn't make sense. Although those Demon God Pillars bear the names of Seventy-two Demon Gods, they have no resemblance to the demon gods in the records. They are just completely distorted monsters.

If these demons are other beings who have taken on different names, then your claim to be King Solomon is also questionable!

Solomon turned his gaze to the English girl who possessed Sima Yi's abilities, and smiled coldly, "Arrogant woman. Humans really can't change their Yamato and stupid nature no matter what, even if they've already died once because of it."

Can posture and Spirit Origin be used as standards for judging essence? If you can only see what your eyes can see, then it can only mean that you do not have the corresponding qualifications.

The Demon God Pillars are life forms that have evolved to a new Bleach. They are the wedges I dispatched to stop the surface of this planet from turning.

The true tool used to incinerate Human Order —the ribbon of light swirling in the sky—is precisely the form of my Noble Phantasm!

"Light band?"

Mash exclaimed in surprise, "That Great Holy Calendar that can be observed at every Singularity... that's actually Noble Phantasm?"

Her tone was filled with disbelief and bitterness; the Demi-Servant girl probably couldn't even imagine how she could fight such a being.

Solomon seemed to be relatively tolerant of Mash, even having the time to respond to her questions.

"Doll-like girl, put away your shock, that is without a doubt my third Noble Phantasm— "

[The time of its birth has come; this is the thing that will correct everything.] Each ray of light within it is equivalent to the power released by the strongest Holy Sword, which is the pinnacle of the so-called 'Anti-City Noble Phantasm'!

In terms of total amount, it would generate approximately the heat of overlapping this Holy Sword hundreds of millions of times... That band of light is that kind of existence.
