The moment he felt his heart throb, Roland instinctively understood this power that reversed cause and effect, and the cold that seemed to freeze the space around him.
The first Magic Spear locked down space, cutting off means of teleportation such as Command Spells, while the second reversed cause and effect to deny him his life.
Through technique alone, the Magic Spears had produced effects far beyond their quality. Only the queen of the Land of Shadows could accomplish that in this world.
"Gáe Bolg Alternative!"
This killing blow was more complete than Karna's had been, even beginning the release of the Noble Phantasm's true name. Through the will carried on the spearpoint alone, Roland could feel its wielder's intense Killing Intent.
"Ah..."

She had never intended to interfere with tonight's events, wanting only to immerse herself in the peaceful atmosphere of being with her lover. She had not expected that irritating woman to be so oblivious.
