Animusfia faced the setting sun, and the dim afterglow made him squint his eyes slightly.

Recalling the two heroic spirits she encountered today - Atalanta and Lancelot, Animusfia felt a headache.

No matter who is the most powerful Servant.

Leaving aside Lancelot who is a Berserker himself, in Atalanta's case it seems that the heroic spirit summoned normally was given the attribute of madness.

Therefore, he will act against his own intentions, and even if he is not an anti-hero, he will commit atrocities.

Animusfia doesn’t know if other heroic spirits summoned by Black Joan are like this, but if this is the case————

The difficulty has undoubtedly increased a lot.

A berserker is already strong enough, and the madness skill alone is beneficial but not harmful in combat.

For Black Joan, who holds the Holy Grail and can be said to have unlimited magic power, the magic power burden caused by going crazy can be ignored.

Behind us, we can still vaguely see the smoke-filled city of Lasalita.

After taking care of the dragon, Animusfia planned to rush directly to Orleans before Black Joan caught up with them, and meet up with Marshal Gill who was still resisting.

Finally, he relied on the fortress to fight the Dragon Witch in Orleans.

The plan was barely reasonable.

As long as time is fully utilized, the probability of success is not low.

As for the surviving people in Lasalitai City, Animusfia did not make any arrangements for them.

However, as saints, Giorgios and Joan of Arc expressed that they could not just abandon the civilians who had no hope of survival.

Although Fujimaru Ritsuka and Mashu did not express their opinions, their words and deeds revealed the same thoughts.

Even Roman and Leonardo da Vinci, who were in Chaldea, supported helping the civilians first.

So now Animusfia had to divide its forces into two groups with its combat power at a disadvantage.

Ritsuka Fujimaru, Mashu, Jeanne d'Arc and Giorgios stayed behind to help the general public.

Animusfia is not worried about the Dragon Witch attacking Fujimaru Ritsuka and the others.

With three dedicated [Guardian] servants, Matthew, Joan of Arc, and Giorgios, Lasalité can be said to be the safest place in France.

The three heroic spirits who are good at defense cooperate with each other, and the combined effectiveness is far from as simple as one plus one plus one.

Therefore, what needs to be worried about more is Animusfia's own safety.

"well."

Animusfia sighed.

He still couldn't understand why Jeanne and the others were willing to lower the possibility of success to help ordinary people.

Compared with saving one person versus a hundred people, Animusfia would choose to save a hundred people.

Simple addition problems.

Compared with a familiar person and a hundred unfamiliar people, Animusfia will undoubtedly choose the familiar person.

It's just that he wanted to do it.

Maybe this is the difference between him and the saint.

"What's wrong? Director."

Artoria Alter keenly noticed Animusfia's emotional changes.

Along with Animusfia, Arturia Alt, who also disapproved of rescuing civilians, went to Orleans.

"nothing."

"Are you worried about your life? Don't worry, I will protect you."

Animusfia shook her head and said:

"Not really."

The setting sun disappeared below the horizon, leaving only the red sunset glow scattered in the atmosphere.

Animusfia was not afraid of dying.

Like Giorgios, he is more or less a person who has died once, so he doesn't care that much about his own safety.

But Animusfia is also different from Giorgos.

"I'm just thinking that I'm not as noble as a saint."

"Are you implying that I'm not very noble either?"

Black Saber said.

"This is really a difficult question to answer."

Animusfia touched her nose and said with a wry smile.

"Hmph, I don't need your flattery either."

Artoria Alt paused and continued:

"If it were me in the past, I might have chosen to go to the other side."

"But now you choose to come with me."

Arturia looked at Animusfia and said calmly:

"Isn't that what you said? Use the loser's method and try new possibilities."

Animusfia was speechless, then laughed.

"Yes, I obviously said that, but now I have forgotten it. Sorry, Saber."

The dark swordsman nodded.

The sky turned completely dark, and the moonlight poured onto the land without any obstruction.

*******

Vlad III felt the aura of humanity.

Although he hates being a vampire, he is undoubtedly a genuine vampire at this time.

The senses are naturally those of a vampire.

When Vlad III arrived at the messy forest, the magician who released the magic was no longer there.

Only the slight magical aura left behind by Atalanta and Lancelot before they disappeared told him what had happened here before.

Following the magic power fluctuations detected in the giant pit, Vlad III approached Orleans.

At this time, I finally caught up with the target.

Animusfia's figure appeared on the field in the dark night.

Vlad III frowned.

He didn't know what the magician not far away was doing.

It would be unwise to act alone in this situation.

But the faint fluctuations in magic power told him that Animusfia not far away was the initiator of the previous shadow of the huge planet in the sky.

Can such an idiot also deal with Atalanta and Lancelot?

Vlad III didn't know, but he decided to test it first.

Vlad III merged into the deep night, sliding towards Animusfia as if sinking into a shadow.

While breathing, Vlad III came to Animusfiya's side.

The lord exuding a noble aura emerged from the darkness.

The spear, which reflected the cold light under the moonlight, stabbed Animusfia in the back.

"Qiang——"

With a crisp sound, the irregular crystal spear missed Vlad III's spear.

It was Animusfia, whose whole body shone with silver light, turned around and opened the spear that stabbed him.

"There is still some ability——"

Vlad III praised aloud, but the movements of his hands did not stop.

Animusfia parried an attack from Vlad III. Every parry felt like a truck hitting him.

Soon, Animusfia was defeated by Vlad III's offensive.

In an instant, several bloody holes appeared on Animusfia's body.

Is that all?

Vlad III was full of doubts.

But how can such an opponent defeat Lancelot and Atalanta?

He hasn't even warmed up yet.

Since we can't do it, let's stop here.

Vlad III lost the enthusiasm for fighting. He jumped back, stopped attacking with the spear in his hand, and swung it to the side.

The "piles" formed by the blood congealed continuously broke through the soil and came to the soles of Animusfia's feet.

"puff----"

After a muffled sound, Animusfiya's body was pierced by a "stake" and then penetrated.

.....

Vlad III looked at Animusfia's "corpse" with scrutiny.

Under his eyes, Animusfia's "corpse" lost its original color and turned into a black spot of light and disappeared.

Saturn, Saturn.

That is, Saturn, the god of agriculture, Cronus in Greek mythology, the son of Uranus in the sky and Gaia on the earth, the consort of the earth mother goddess Rhea, and the father of Zeus.

The beginning of all things, the black sun.

God of illusion and power.

"Is that so?"

Vlad III didn't realize that this was Animusfia's magic.

*******

Animusfia, who was moving towards Orleans with Saber alter, stopped.

"What's wrong?"

Arturia asked Animusfia who suddenly stopped.

"It looks like our arrival in Orleans will be slightly delayed."

Animusfia said this as she felt the magic of Saturn disappear.
