The second calamity.
A burning mountain fell from the sky and crashed into the distant sea.
The seawater instantly turned blood red.
The third calamity.
A burning giant star streaked across the sky and plunged into the city's water source.
The river began to turn bitter.
The fourth calamity.
The brilliance of the sun, moon, and stars dimmed by one-third at the same time.
Daylight turned into dusk.
The night turned into an abyss.
The fifth calamity.
The bottomless pit has begun.
Thick smoke billowed from the cracked earth, obscuring the remaining sunlight.
Countless locusts flew out of the thick smoke.
They have the bodies of warhorses, golden crowns, human faces, lion's teeth, and scorpion's tails.
They swarmed toward all those who were not sheltered.
"What... what is this?--"
Sigma ran frantically with the Tsubaki Kuruoka in his arms, behind him lay a wasteland covered in locusts.
The sixth calamity.
The distant river had dried up, and countless cavalrymen poured out from the cracked earth.
Fire, smoke, sulfur.
One-third of the land was destroyed.
The seventh calamity.
The earthquake cracked.
The island sank.
The mountains disappeared.
Huge hailstones fell from the sky.
The Book of Revelation.
This is a genuine apocalyptic scene.
And the driving force behind all of this, besides the Pale Rider, was...
There is one more person.
Sajyou Manaka stood still, hands clasped together, eyes closed.
Her lips moved slightly, as if she were chanting something.
Strands of invisible magic emanated from her body and merged into the Pale Rider's body.
Mental Magecraft.
She embodies all of humanity's fantasies about the Book of Revelation.
All those fears, those imaginings, those specific images of the apocalypse were conveyed to the Pale Rider.
The Pale Rider's Noble Phantasm has become even more powerful.
The end of the world is no longer just an empty adjective.
It has become a real, flesh-and-blood reality.
Origami stands at the center of Book of Revelation.
The fire swept past her.
A sea of blood churned at her feet.
Locusts flew past her.
Hail fell from above her head.
Then it all passed through her body.
Or rather, it was all rendered ineffective by her Atheism.
"..."
Origami looked down at her perfectly intact Astral Dress.
He looked up again at the calamities that filled the sky.
The opponent's Noble Phantasm effect did indeed activate.
The scene was spectacular.
But why does it have no effect on me at all?
Could it be because of the demon king who protects him?
Satan.
That's what Sajyou Manaka said.
And the opposite of Satan.
The Book of Revelation of Revelation.
Are the two concepts inherently mutually exclusive?
I'm not entirely sure about Origami.
But she definitely felt it.
The white knight's Noble Phantasm couldn't harm her at all.
Not at all.
On the contrary, those who were pulled in along with others suffered the most.
Her gaze swept across the battlefield.
Sajyou Ayaka, Hassan of the Zealot, Sigma, and Tsubaki were in a good position.
Chun has awakened inside this barrier.
The Pale- faced girl rubbed her eyes, gazing blankly at the apocalyptic scene around her.
" Mr. Black...?"
Her voice was very soft.
But the Pale Rider seemed to have heard it.
Its attack automatically bypassed the area where Chun was located.
It's not just the protection of the Pale Rider.
Sajyou Manaka was also by their side.
Manaka shielded Ayaka and the others with one hand, while continuously casting defensive Magecraft with the other.
The flames, hail, and locusts from the Book of Revelation parted automatically a few meters in front of her, as if blocked by an invisible wall.
She also has her own means of protecting herself in the Book of Revelation.
After all, someone who can block divine lightning with a single finger is no match for a mere apocalyptic phenomenon.
"It's fine."
Sajyou Manaka smiled at Ayaka.
I'm here.
Ayaka nodded. Although she was still a little scared, seeing Manaka demeanor reassured her somewhat.
The Hassan of the Zealot leaned against the ruins, his wounds not fully healed, but at least he hadn't been directly affected by the Book of Revelation.
Then Origami's gaze fell in another direction.
Enkidu.
The golden figure was kneeling on the ground.
His body was disintegrating, turning into soil, peeling away bit by bit from the ends of his limbs, and dissipating in the wind.
"Well...!"
Enkidu gritted his teeth, bracing himself with his hands on the ground, trying to keep his body intact.
But the soil kept falling off him.
In legends, he is associated with death in a negative way.
This Pseudo-Underworld is the realm of death.
Since entering this space, his power has been significantly weakened in all aspects.
In the Book of Revelation, even self-preservation has become extremely difficult.
The calamities of the Apocalypse relentlessly assaulted his body, each one accelerating his disintegration.
He became the first victim of the Pale Rider's Noble Phantasm.
"Damn it... in a place like this..."
The dirt peeled off his cheeks, revealing the Pale beneath.
He didn't want to die.
It's not that I'm afraid of death.
It's because he hasn't been able to avenge Gilgamesh yet.
If it dissipates here.
"Hey, can you still hold on?"
Richard rushed to Enkidu's side and grabbed his arm.
The silver-white knight also bore numerous wounds.
His Godspeed allowed him to linger in the Book of Revelation, but it also affected his speed within this realm of death.
Enkidu did not answer.
The Pale Rider stands at the center of the Book of Revelation, his Pale lance planted in the ground.
It watched all of this.
Fire, blood, death, destruction.
The vision of the apocalypse unfolds perfectly.
However, its already weak thinking ability has become somewhat overloaded.
It cannot understand one thing.
Why?
Why wasn't this enemy, which threatened the lamb, eliminated by its Noble Phantasm?
It unleashed sword, famine, death, and beast.
It brings to life the most terrifying apocalyptic vision in all of human imagination.
Everyone present was affected to some extent.
Ayaka and the others were protected by Sajyou Manaka and were barely unharmed.
Enkidu has been nerfed to near death.
Richard was also struggling.
But that silver-haired woman.
Unharmed.
All calamities will disappear automatically when they come into contact with her.
She didn't even deploy a defense.
He simply stood at the center of Book of Revelation, as if strolling in his own backyard, completely unconcerned.
Why?
Why?
Why?
The Pale Rider's thinking ability was completely overloaded.
And that's when it's overloaded.
Origami yawned.
"I'm tired of seeing it."
Her figure disappeared from the spot.
Sajyou Manaka's eyes widened slightly.
She seemed to have already guessed what the Origami was going to do.
Her figure appeared instantly beside Sajyou Ayaka and the others.
A hand rested on Ayaka's shoulder.
"Excuse me, I'll have to bother you for a moment."
A diamond-shaped portal opened in front of them.
Behind the door lies an ordinary city street, the real world outside.
"Wait, Saber is still inside!"
Ayaka struggled to turn around.
"That child..."
Sajyou Manaka pushed the group towards the door.
"I will save his life."
"You--"
Let's go.
Ayaka was pushed into the portal.
Hassan of the Zealot, Sigma, and Tsubaki were also sent out shortly after.
The portal closed.
Sajyou Manaka stood alone in the Book of Revelation, looking up at the spot where Origami had just disappeared.
It's coming.
She said this with that same smiling expression on her face.
But a hint of seriousness flashed in his eyes.
Origami floated in the sky of the Book of Revelation.
Ten wings of light fully unfolded behind him, covering the entire sky.
Space began to distort.
