"Gu————!"
Matthew struggled to block the attack from Mordred.
The red thunder and lightning and the falling sword blades wrapped around the reassembled magic mist, like hail hitting the umbrella, fell on the round table itself in Matthew's hands, where many Knights of the Round Table had once gathered.
The magic mist, which already had a very high concentration of magic power, was even stimulated by Mordred's magic power. The magic power that originally belonged to Mordred was like a detonator detonating explosives, triggering a greater chain reaction.
The magic power that originally required special skills to be released can now be seen everywhere, and the horrific consequences of stimulating it are fully reflected in Mashu's body.
Although Matthew knew that she must not take even one step back, her body still moved backward inch by inch. Her feet and the giant shield in her hand left deep ravines on the streets of London.
That's it again.
That's it again!
Although I don’t know why I have very vague memories of the past singularities, the unwillingness in my heart at this moment is something that Matthew can’t forget but can clearly taste.
When facing the inverted Noble Phantasm of Artoria at Singularity Point F;
When faced with an almost endless wyvern in the French Singularity;
When resisting the light of the wandering star soldiers in the singularity of Rome that could defeat the gods;
And in the singularity of Oceanus, when helplessly facing the light from the Moon Goddess——————
She could only watch herself retreat step by step and lose step by step, unable to do anything.
Without the help of others, Mashu would have failed long ago.
"What's wrong with you? Matthew, if it's just this level——————"
However, Mordred did not slow down the speed of swinging his sword because of the bitterness on Matthew's face. Clarent, who had pierced King Arthur's chest and bathed in King Arthur's blood, still slashed at him relentlessly. A round table where many knights gathered.
"But it's not worthy of this shield!"
Just like what Mordred once did in the legend.
If that rebellion is allowed to continue to rage, what will eventually greet Matthew and the shield in her hand will be the same as the end of King Arthur's Knights of the Round Table——————
Torn apart.
And Fujimaru Ritsuka didn't just stand there blankly. While Mordred kept attacking Mashu, she also kept trying to use the magic spells carried by Chaldea's ceremonial dress. Limit Mordred.
However, after dozens of Gandr rounds hit Mordred without any intention of evading, it did not get the result that Fujimaru Ritsuka expected.
However, this result is not surprising. After all, the spells attached to Chaldea's ceremonial attire were not added to allow the master to fight the heroic spirits.
Gandr itself is the most basic and simple magic, even if it is released directly by a magician, it is only a curse that can cause a severe cold to ordinary people, let alone the effect of magic released based on rituals.
The pitch-black magic bullet just sank into Mordred's armor, failing to even stir up a ripple.
"hateful------"
Seeing that the magic on the costume had no effect at all, Fujimaru Ritsuka no longer thought about keeping the command spell in his hand and used it for its original purpose.
"I command you with a command spell, Mordred, to put down your weapon!"
Scarlet light lit up from the back of Fujimaru Ritsuka's hand, and then attached to Mordred's spiritual base through the connection between her and Mordred that was vaguely formed by the contract.
However, for Mordred, who has a very high coefficient against magic power, the effectiveness of the command spell is not obvious. It only makes Mordred stop attacking.
Even limited by her own characteristics as a rebellious knight, the more obvious the restraint is on her, the more terrifying the power accumulated in the end will be.
Fortunately, the effect of the command spell at least gave Mashu a chance to breathe.
Mashu, who was constantly panting, frowned and faced Mordred, who was looking at him with an unhappy expression while inserting the long sword in his hand into the ground.
"Well done! Fujimaru, Mashu! I'm already contacting Alter now, just hold on!"
At the same time, Roman, who had detected this change in Chaldea, also said while contacting Alt.
"Please forgive me for being rude! Sir Mordred!"
Although he was very puzzled as to why Mordred, who looked bold on the surface but had absolutely no scheming intentions, would suddenly attack, Mashu decided to take advantage of the fact that Mordred was restricted by the Command Seal and incapacitate him.
So after taking a deep breath, Mashu lowered his body and rushed towards Mordred in front of him.
Compressing all the remaining strength in his body to one point, like a tight spring, Mashu waved the giant shield towards Mordred.
In Chaldea's simulation training, even though it was very difficult to parry Artoria Alter's attack, and even though the final result always ended in Mashu's defeat, Mashu never gave up his efforts or failed. study.
She has always imitated Artoria's power and fighting techniques, and has made considerable progress as a result.
If the only thing that Matthew is proud of is not the power given to him by the unknown Knight of the Round Table, but the ability he has mastered, then it must be this move.
"ah----!"
The wind pressure attached to the shield instantly blew away the magic mist that had gathered around it, revealing Mordred's complete figure.
Matthew just launched a full blow towards Mordred.
"boom."
However, the result is extremely ironic, and the ending ends with Mash's shield falling away.
After the cross-shaped giant shield flipped several times in mid-air, it landed straight behind Mashu and inserted into the hard ground.
The same scene had appeared several times in Chaldea's simulation training device. Arturia Altria, who was never merciful during training, had stood on the horse countless times with a sword blade that would feel stinging just by touching it. Above Xiu's neck.
At this moment, Mordred, whose actions were almost exactly the same as Artoria's, also clearly reminded Mashu that she was serious.
"Too weak."
Mordred said this as he stood Clarent in front of him again and easily knocked away Mashu's shield with just a single movement of his sword.
"Although Master's command spell prevents me from attacking, defense is still easy, Mashu."
Moving his wrist, Mordred simultaneously raised his eyes and looked at Fujimaru Ritsuka.
"After teaching the shield guy a lesson, the Master who has no fighting spirit also needs to be taught a lesson."
Mordred, who was gradually recovering from the influence of the Command Seal, slowly raised her sword in the direction of Fujimaru Ritsuka, and red lightning appeared around her again.
"Doctor, hasn't Alter arrived yet?"
Seeing that the attack on him was about to be launched, but Mashu still failed to recover from the previous attack, Fujimaru Ritsuka quickly urged Roman, who had been silent since just now.
However, Roman still didn't reply for some reason, and Alt's assistance was still missing.
"Always relying on others cannot save humanity, Master."
"I order you with a command spell, Mordred, to stop attacking!"
As a last resort, Fujimaru Ritsuka could only use the Command Seal again. However, this time after the scarlet light flashed, Mordred did not stop attacking like before, but only froze slightly.
"I've told you before, Master, magic doesn't have that big a restriction on me."
"Clarent Blood Arthur (rebellion against my magnificent father)!"
Without any reservation, Mordred released his Noble Phantasm.
Under the dim sunset that gradually dimmed through the thick white mist, violent magic mixed with lightning came straight towards Fujimaru Ritsuka.
"It resembles a noble phantom, unfolded. This is to protect the foundation of human nature! (Lord Chaldeas)!"
At the critical moment, Mashu picked up the shield again and stood in front of Fujimaru Ritsuka.
The light blue city wall, which had been deployed several times, stood in front of the light cannon sent by Mordred.
However, in the past, it was able to successfully receive attacks, and even Artoria Alter's Reversal Holy Sword was helpless. However, this invincible Noble Phantasm gradually collapsed under Mordred's attack.
"It seems that you know what kind of treasure you are holding in your hand. Do you want to use the power of the Knights of the Round Table? You have persisted in this way before, but it is a pity that you can only face me, even if it is... Camelot will also fall apart!"
Mordred said unceremoniously, and then continued to increase the strength of his hands.
The illusory blue barrier was completely shattered, and the magic cannon released by Mordred without reservation hit Mashu's shield heavily. Mashu, who was almost out of strength, even continued to stand. It became a problem.
"senior………………"
Unable to do anything, Mash turned his head and looked behind him, hoping that his master would continue to help him like he had done when he resisted Artoria Alter.
He even hoped that he could hold her hand tightly again like he was when he was pressed under the boulder.
"Sure enough, until now you still hope to rely on others! You shield guy!"
Mordred shouted at Matthew angrily.
"Since you dress up like a knight, then behave like a knight! What does the lord you serve mean? And what purpose do you have in being loyal to the lord!
————————If you only give your so-called loyalty in order to get something from the master......"
Mordred turned his eyes and looked at Fujimaru Ritsuka who was staying behind Mashu. Although he took a step forward, he was completely unable to ignite the fighting spirit.
"What will happen to you if the master refuses? Mashu."
Although I don’t know how this Master performed before and how many Heroic Spirits he has gained recognition from, at least now, Fujimaru Ritsuka’s performance is not enough to gain her recognition.
The red-haired girl in front of her is not a person who lacks determination, at least Mordred can still see this. Her ability to fight all the way here also proves that Fujimaru Ritsuka is by no means incompetent.
It's just that Mordred didn't know what Fujimaru Ritsuka had gone through to make him so weak that he even lost his most basic fighting spirit.
Compared to this, it seems that the destruction of human nature is not that important to her.
This is undoubtedly fatal.
It's not that he's confused about why he's fighting, but that he's lost his reason for fighting even though he's found his goal.
If it's the former, maybe others can give her the answer, but if it's the latter, no one can help her except Fujimaru Ritsuka himself.
On the surface, the master-servant relationship between Mashu and Fujimaru Ritsuka seems to be based on Mashu's loyalty to his master, but in fact, Mashu constantly seeks trust and presence from Fujimaru Ritsuka.
If you want to ask Mordred why he knew——————
Even now, she is still longing for King Arthur's approval.
So after King Arthur explicitly disowned her, Mordred rebelled.
Unlike King Arthur, Fujimaru Ritsuka has never refused Mashu's request, so this abnormal master-servant relationship will continue.
Unfortunately, however, Fujimaru Ritsuka, who has been looking for someone to rely on, seems to be unable to continue to rely on Mashu.
Mordred didn't know what changed Fujimaru Ritsuka, but what Mordred knew was that in this case, this deformed master-servant relationship must be ended here and now.
It's really embarrassing to say that I didn't expect that a character like her would be qualified to teach others about loyalty issues.
However, who asked Matthew to pick up the round table?
In this case, how could Mordred turn a blind eye.
