Mayuri's tone was somewhat urgent.
In her understanding, Heracles of Singularity F is a Berserker.
Heracles Berserker-class Servant, is indeed very strong. With the God Hand and monstrous base stats, he is one of the most difficult Servant to deal with in a normal Holy Grail War.
But that's normal.
In Singularity F, Heracles, even after being corrupted, remains a formidable opponent, but he shouldn't be able to defeat the similarly enhanced Saber Alter.
Furthermore, according to the original game, Heracles in Singularity F should be lurking near Einzbern Castle, rarely taking the initiative to attack.
They won't come to Mount Enzou to beat people up.
Shirou Emiya looked at Mayuri's incredulous expression and remained silent for two seconds.
I don't know where you got that information.
"But Heracles ' class is not Berserker."
Mayuri's mind went blank for a moment.
"What?"
"Based on my speculation, it's most likely Avenger."
Avenger.
the Avenger.
Mayuri stood there, taking several seconds to swallow the thought.
Heracles is not Berserker, he is Avenger.
Heracles of the Avenger class.
This combination has never been seen in any version of FGO.
Heracles is a great hero renowned throughout Human History.
Shirou Emiya's voice remained as flat as ever.
Even now, having fallen to the status of an Avenger, his strength remains formidable.
" King Arthur was defeated by him not long ago."
Mayuri's lips twitched.
King Arthur Alter, was defeated by Avenger Heracles.
Saber Alter, who was originally the final boss in the game, was defeated by Heracles in this Singularity.
So who is the boss of this Singularity now?
"However, for some reason, Heracles did not take the Holy Grail."
Shirou Emiya continued.
"After defeating King Arthur, he left on his own."
"His usual area of activity is not in this region, but rather in the eastern part of Fuyuki City, near Einzbern Castle."
Shirou Emiya paused for a moment.
"I don't know what happened that day, why he suddenly attacked this place."
Mayuri closed her eyes and reviewed the existing information again.
Singularity F.
According to the original FGO work, the configuration here should be:
Saber Artoria Alter, as the final boss, controls the Greater Grail.
Caster Cú Chulainn is the only Servant who remains in the homeland.
The remaining five Servant —Archer Heroic Spirit, Rider Emiya, Lancer Musashibō Benkei, Assassin Cursed Arm Hassan, Medusa Berserker Heracles —were corrupted and transformed into Shadow Servant.
Chaldea's Master Ritsuka Fujimaru and her Demi-Servant Mash arrived here, fought their way through, and finally defeated Saber Alter, repairing the Singularity.
But that's not the case at all now.
Saber Alter was defeated by Avenger Heracles and her whereabouts are unknown.
Heracles went from Berserker to Avenger, defeated Saber Alter but didn't get the Holy Grail, and went straight back to Einzbern Castle to stay.
Shirou Emiya is not Shadow Servant, but a Guardian of the Holy Grail.
Mayuri herself was not summoned as Caster Cherub, but appeared in this reversed form.
It's completely different from the original game.
Mayuri opened her eyes.
"OK."
She took a deep breath.
"I see."
Everything is in complete chaos.
Compared to Singularity F in her memory, this is not just a matter of being slightly inferior.
The plot started to go astray during World War IV.
This time it's even more outrageous.
Her memories of her past life are basically of little use in this Singularity.
"If Heracles were to come again."
Mayuri looked at Shirou Emiya.
I'll handle him.
Shirou Emiya nodded.
He didn't ask Mayuri why she said that.
Perhaps they made their judgment after observing the Spirit Origin's reaction, or perhaps they simply didn't care.
He turned around and walked out of the pit along the gravel slope he had come from.
After taking a few steps, he stopped, turned his head, and said something.
"Oh, right."
" Heracles isn't the only local Servant active on the periphery."
"There is a Caster, Cú Chulainn, near the Fuyuki Church."
"He wasn't corrupted by evil, nor did he launch any attacks here."
"There are still a few Shadow Servant wandering around the bridge and the Shinto area. They're not very strong; you can easily take them out if you encounter them."
" The Chaldea haven't arrived yet. But based on past patterns, they should be here soon."
After saying that, Shirou Emiya continued walking uphill.
Soon, his figure rolled over the edge of the pit and disappeared outside.
Mayuri stood at the bottom of the pit, looking in the direction he had left.
There was silence for about ten seconds.
She turned and walked toward the altar.
The golden Holy Grail hung about a meter above the altar, its rim facing upwards, and dark red light seeped from its walls.
The information coming from the contract connection was simple: the mana supply was sufficient and the Spirit Origin was functioning normally.
She looked down and then looked at herself.
Black wings.
Dark red Astral Dress lines.
Her light golden hair fell down to her chest.
The red and black halo above his head emitted a faint light.
Mayuri raised her right hand, and a ball of flame slowly gathered in her palm.
It wasn't the crimson-gold lightning from World War IV.
It was a dark red fire.
The flame flickered in my palm for two seconds before dissipating on its own.
Mayuri clenched her fist.
"... Leviathan."
She murmured the name.
This is her real name now.
It is not Cherub Cherub.
It is the Demon King Leviathan.
Mayuri - Reversal. Alter.
Saber class.
The Noble Phantasm changed from Thunder Sanctuary to Demon King Leviathan.
The strongest attack method changed from the Sword of Blazing Flame to the Flaming Sword.
Even the class has changed from Caster to Saber.
Although nominally called Saber, Mayuri knew very well that her actual close-quarters combat skills were far inferior to those of a proper swordsman.
Therefore, the Saber class is probably only categorized as such because of the concept of Flaming Sword.
Mayuri sighed, sat down on a rock next to the altar, and gently swung her legs.
The black wings unconsciously opened slightly, then closed again.
Under a dark red sky, an inverted angel sat blankly beside a tainted Holy Grail.
The Fuyuki City is still burning in the distance.
Black plumes of smoke rose from all parts of the city, forming a gray-black curtain.
The smell of ashes lingered in the air.
Mayuri rested her chin on her knees.
The Chaldea are coming soon.
Ritsuka Fujimaru and Mash Kyrielight.
The main characters of FGO.
Once they get here, they will try to repair this Singularity.
Mayuri was summoned to stop them.
Protect the Holy Grail.
To prevent Singularity from being repaired.
Mayuri narrowed her eyes.
To be honest, she wasn't particularly attached to this mission.
She's not really a villain.
The Spirit Origin Inversion, but the personality hasn't.
Inside is still that soul that traveled from another world.
But now, her Servant Contract is bound to the Holy Grail.
Refusing a task is tantamount to breaching a contract.
The consequence of breaking the contract is the disintegration of the Spirit Origin.
That is, death.
Mayuri doesn't want to die.
"Why do I always run into these kinds of weird things..."
Under the dark red sky, no one answered her.
Only the flames of Fuyuki City in the distance made a low, rumbling sound in the wind.
