Illya's Multiverse Odyssey

"Wuu--"

A whimper.

Beasts understood best how to avoid harm. If nothing else, Heracles' massive size was larger than a grizzly bear, the overlord of the forest. How would these wolves dare to fight? The moment he charged, they wanted to flee.

But Heracles' speed was too fast. His enormous body did not hinder his speed at all. In the blink of an eye, he crossed over twenty meters and split the leading wolf in half with a single sword strike.

Truly brutal!

Chapter 2: I, Faceplant

"As expected of the legendary Great Hero Heracles! This strength! This speed! Our Einzbern family is destined to win this Holy Grail War!"

Miles away in Winter Castle, Acht, watching this scene through Surveillance Magic, couldn't help but show a look of intense excitement on his withered face.

However, Su Ning, who was on the scene, rolled his eyes as he watched Heracles slaughter the wolf pack like a heavy tank.

Acht, as a magus, didn't understand what a true warrior needed.

Imposing Mad Enhancement on Heracles was an utterly foolish decision!

Although Rank B Mad Enhancement increased Heracles' Strength and Endurance attributes by 30%, giving him an overwhelming power advantage against other Servants, it simultaneously suppressed most of his skills.

Rank B Mind's Eye, Rank A+ Bravery, and most importantly, his extraordinary martial arts that surpassed mortals and reached the Divine Domain, thus transforming into Noble Phantasms, Hyakume – all of these were suppressed due to the negative effects of Mad Enhancement.

Mad Enhancement could only increase Strength by 30%, while Hyakume could unleash nine simultaneous strongest attacks with any weapon. Although the attacks wouldn't overlap like Tsubame Gaeshi or Mumei San Dantotsu, it was still terrifying enough.

Acht's actions were like picking up sesame seeds and losing watermelons.

"Damn it, I'm really having a hard time!"

"Originally, the opponents in the Fifth War were already strong enough: Artoria, Red A, Cú Chulainn, and Golden Flash, with Zouken Matou lurking at the edges, and All the World's Evil as the ultimate boss preparing to destroy the world... and now Acht is actually holding me back!"

"No! I'll take care of this old guy later! Then I'll find a way to remove the Mad Enhancement from Heracles..."

While Su Ning was contemplating how to get rid of Acht, Heracles had already finished the battle.

"Let's go, Berserker, we're going back!"

Su Ning snapped back to reality, took a step forward, and then... faceplanted.

Actually, Illya in the Fifth War was already eighteen years old, older than Shirou Emiya and Rin Tohsaka, who were still in high school. However, due to being a Homunculus, her height was only 1.3 meters, and she looked like an elementary school student.

The accumulated snow was already past her knees.

At this moment, he truly missed his 1.8-meter body from his previous life.

As she shakily pushed herself up from the snow with a dark expression, a large hand, about half her size, stopped in front of her.

It's Heracles.

Su Ning paused for a moment, recalling scenes from the anime where Illya acted alongside him. He immediately understood what was meant and carefully stepped onto Heracles.

Yes, when the two acted together normally, Illya would always sit on Heracles's shoulders.

His field of vision suddenly widened.

However, without Heracles's mountain-like body blocking the way, the wind felt even colder.
