"Master!"
Despite the order, Saber still held his breath. From his perspective, Roland didn't even resist, but just stood there, as if he was calmly accepting death.
Even from a distance, Saber could sense that what Archer shot was a genuine Noble Phantasm with majestic magical power.
Even if its own characteristics are put aside, such a projection will directly cause a terrible explosion. It is absolutely impossible for humans to withstand this blow, and they will only be blown up without any bones left.
Saber has no doubt that Roland is the strongest Master in this Holy Grail War. He can easily plan multiple team combinations and always seize everything he wants with ease. But in the face of the power of the Servants, Human power seems so small.
However, what appeared in front of Saber next was a completely incomprehensible situation.
Roland stood quietly, unscathed.
The scarlet magic gun disappeared as if it had been erased by an eraser on the way out.
"impossible!"
Gilgamesh changed color for the first time, not because of the failure of his attack, but because he did not understand the situation in front of him.
He has the wisdom to see through everything. No matter what situation he is in, he can always understand what is happening immediately.
But it's completely different now. This is definitely not magic or magic, but something even more incomprehensible.
Whether it is resisting, knocking away, or even fighting back by defiling his Noble Phantasm like the dead rabid dog before, although Gilgamesh will be angry and lose his temper, these are helpless situations that exist between world changes. possibility.
But in the process just now, this possibility seemed to have no effect at all, as if it had never happened at all.
"So, didn't I say it? The law of victory has been decided," Roland showed a playful smile and looked at Gilgamesh who was speechless in front of him.
"However, since you worked so hard to let me test out my new abilities, wouldn't it look like I was bullying the children if I didn't show my kindness?"
Roland smiled, stretched out an index finger and tapped his chin, pretending to be distressed, and then grinned.
"Let's do this," his voice became deeper and deeper, with strong malice and unconcealable pleasure.
"As long as you run away like a lost dog, I will let you go."
"Bastard! What are you talking about!"
Such explicit ridicule made Gilgamesh furious. He waved his hand violently, causing golden ripples like a lake to spread out in the void behind him, dyeing the deep lacquer sky into a dazzling scene.
A polished noble phantom with a rare luster poked out from it and aimed at Roland, but it did not shoot out immediately.
Because his master has turned his attention to another thing at this moment.
Gilgamesh turned his head blankly. He had never felt that his expression was so stiff before, because the scene in front of him was so abnormal.
In the golden ripples closest to him, a scarlet magic gun quietly poked out from it, as if it had never been shot at all.
Gilgamesh's King's Treasure has as many treasures as the stars, and he doesn't even remember them all. Most of the time, he just makes requests and lets the King's Treasure choose the appropriate treasures, but just for a He won't lose his impression so quickly because of the magic spear specially selected to kill him.
Gilgamesh looked at the precious original book next to him with disbelief. After confirming that it was the genuine article, his eyes suddenly became solemn when he looked at Roland.
"who are you?"
Such a gaffe of Gilgamesh undoubtedly greatly satisfied Roland's bad taste, and he snapped his fingers calmly.
"Before asking other people questions, you should first learn to respect me. - Who allowed you to look down on me, bastard, get down here!"
Following Roland's voice, Gilgamesh's body suddenly fell, followed by white waves that spread in circles, and finally hit the ground like a meteorite, leaving a deep pit.
Saber stared at this scene dumbfounded, her pupils shrinking.
When Gilgamesh fell and grabbed the ground with his face, he did not catch any traces of the attack, but there was a wound on Archer's back that looked like it had been penetrated, as if it had been pierced by something.
One unknown situation after another finally made Gilgamesh unable to keep the calmness on his face, and he fell into unexpected anger.
"You actually dare to let me fall into this stupid stage and stand on the same ground as you actors. No matter what means you use, I will cut off your future here!"
In an instant, the atmosphere exploded, and dozens of Noble Phantasms suddenly burst out, turning into dazzling golden light, tearing open the atmosphere in front of them, allowing plain white ripples to spread continuously.
Spears, swords, heavy hammers...
Hands of legendary treasures shot out, with the sound of gold and iron clashing, but Roland just looked at it all indifferently, showing no emotion.
Just when those Noble Phantasms were about to penetrate his body, they disappeared out of thin air again.
"It doesn't work. No matter how many times you try, the result is the same."
The Killer Queen floated quietly next to Roland, walking step by step towards Gilgamesh with him.
Roland looked at Gilgamesh who was barely holding himself up and said lightly.
"Perhaps you haven't realized it yet, but you have been trapped in the past, constantly carrying out a powerless cycle. The attacks you launched are all real, and each of your Noble Phantasms has indeed completed the attack. results in, but you can never reach this actual {future}"
"Because when this result happened, time had already gone back. How could an attack from the past hit me? For you, I am already in the future?"
"The moment you become hostile to me, the result is already determined. Every time you achieve a result, it will only cause a new cycle to appear.
——It is not aimed at the reversal of the entire world, but at the cycle of individuals. No matter how powerful the opponent is, no matter how desperate the means are, as long as I deny this, they are just the reality that has never happened in the long river of time. That’s all. "
Roland watched everything happening in front of him indifferently, stretched out his hand, and slowly clenched it.
"This is my stand-in, Killer Queen·The Fourth Bomb, the power of egoism."
This is not a requiem, or an ascension to heaven, but the growth of his own soul, character, and the potential of the Killer Queen. The door to heaven that can change everything is now only one step away from him.
An individual soul is not enough, he also needs an opportunity, a ritual, so that he can truly dominate the world.
Even without Dio, Roland understood that another key factor had been achieved.
One of the necessary conditions for going to heaven is my substitute, {Killer Queen}.
