"Huh? Isn't this the Dragon Ball?! How did it get here?!"
Beneath the gold coin that Lily took, there was a small, inconspicuous glass ball mixed in with the pile of jewels, easily overlooked.
"Holy crap, it really is!"
Rin threw away the gold coin in her hand, followed Lily's gaze, found the bead, and confirmed that it was the real thing!
Now, all seven Dragon Balls are complete!
Why bother with that guy up there? I'm outta here.
"Go! Jump out the window!"
Miss Rin carefully put away the Dragon Balls and shoved Pendragon and the other girl towards the window. Jumping down was much faster than taking the stairs.
"Saber, I'm leaving the landing to you."
Actually, according to her, she could have just flown away with everyone; otherwise, the height of just two stories wouldn't have been a concern for anyone with relevant training.
Pendragon understood perfectly. He glanced at the spirit-like Archer and used his telekinesis to lift the three of them into the air.
As she became increasingly nervous, Rin grew more and more anxious. The thought that all she had to do was find a place to summon the dragon and end the ritual made her heart race.
"what happens?"
Rin, whose body was accelerating upwards, suddenly stopped and immediately looked at "Saber".
The girl stood in mid-air, holding a magnificent longsword she had never seen before, and was playing with it.
The longsword was very long, and it seemed completely unsuitable for a petite girl like her to wield; it looked like she would lose her balance and fall.
Chapter 135 The Battle of Two Kings! The Bandit King and the Hero King
Chapter 135
"Rubbish."
As expected. After taking a look, "Saber" knew to throw the sword to Archer, who had already materialized.
"Huh—you've coveted my treasures, yet you despise my collection. You mongrel, you're exactly what they call 'saying one thing and doing another.'"
A disdainful voice rang out from above, and sensing the immense magical energy fluctuations, Rin Tohsaka instinctively turned her head in that direction.
A blond, red-eyed man with foreign features stood on the rooftop lampstand, sneering at the four people in the garden.
"What are you going to do with me?"
Archer caught the sword thrown by Pendragon, didn't even look at it, and casually tossed it to the ground.
Rin, who was looking up at that man, clearly saw the guy in leather pants twitch at the corner of his eye.
It's clear that he was in a bad mood because his collection had been taken to this extent by someone else.
"Good! Very good! Excellent! You have successfully provoked my wrath. Turn to ashes under my wrath."
The aria-like tone eventually turned into a calm one, and with the king's will, the sky was instantly rippled with magnificent golden waves!
Like a golden lake welcoming a gentle breeze, countless magnificent treasures emerged from the rippling waves, and a dense net of killing intent, like iron chains linking boats, completely enveloped the area!
The description of the Gate of Babylon needs no further explanation: beams of precious light and bursts of divine glow, a magnificent halo that dazzles the eyes of many.
Seeing this scene for the first time, Miss Rin opened her cherry lips in surprise, her eyes widening even further.
These weapons floating in the air are all magical artifacts!
Not just one or two, not even a dozen or twenty, but dozens or hundreds! They were everywhere, seemingly endless!
What kind of monster is this guy?! He's already transcended the concept of "Servant," just like Saber!
The Noble Phantasms he possesses alone are luxurious enough to be used as one-time attacks!
Other Servants' ultimate attacks are just normal attacks to him; this is not even in the same league as his opponent!
Previously, Miss Rin thought that her family's gem-style magic was already extravagant enough, almost like throwing money at magic, a gamble with everything.
However, compared to that Servant who's about to unleash their Noble Phantasm, this is really... a bit of an inconvenience.
"Wow! Saber, save me!"
That guy unleashed a barrage of Noble Phantasms, the dense attack like a sudden rain of Noble Phantasms from the sky, leaving Rin no time to even question why an eighth Servant would appear—a question that defies common sense.
Rin instinctively pulled Lily behind Pendragon, thinking, "You're the invincible Saber, you absolutely can't fall."
"Hey! Emiya-sama, it's up to you this time."
Pendragon also took advantage of any opportunity to touch, and led the two young ladies behind Archer, who was wearing a red bodysuit.
"It's time to show your true skills! Who says knockoffs can't beat the real thing? Go for it!"
He clenched his fist to cheer Archer on from behind. Although King Pikachu summoned his Noble Phantasm in a fit of rage and launched a 360-degree attack, Pendragon chose the direction with the fewest Noble Phantasms.
Several incoming Noble Phantasms were deflected by the sword wheel wielded by the double-headed lightsaber.
Although it is a Noble Phantasm, it cannot exert much power without releasing its true name. Gold Pikachu's use of it is a complete waste of its potential.
Archer seemed prepared for Pendragon recognizing him and showed no surprise.
Compared to this, the barrage of Noble Phantasms shooting towards us is the real threat.
As Pendragon cleaved through those Noble Phantasms, Archer also unleashed his full power, choosing the most dazzling way to respond to his Master.
In that instant, mirror images of the same number of Noble Phantasms, created with magical power, were launched, collided with the originals, and then self-destructed!
The explosion, imbued with magic, was brief and dazzling. It had no flames or high temperatures, yet it was as brilliant and violent as lightning, producing a large amount of smoke and dust.
The projection's self-destruction compensated for its weakness compared to the original, ensuring it was not at a disadvantage and creating a 50/50 situation.
Although it's much easier to just project a shield to block these attacks, being cool, especially in front of the opposite sex, is something that can be done in lifetimes.
Shock!
It was even more shocking than that man's appearance with so many Noble Phantasms.
When did a cook need so many magical artifacts? Do you really need that many to cook?
The other party is Gilgamesh, a legendary figure who possesses a treasure trove, so it's understandable.
"What kind of monsters are we summoning?"
Rin looked at Lily and said this.
"No, he's just a nobody."
Pendragon responded to Rin's exclamation.
"..."
Lily was clearly unaware that the Servant who did housework for them possessed such amazing abilities, and was in a state of shock, remaining silent.
"Wait, how come this is the eighth Servant?"
It was only now that Miss Rin realized that this guy who possessed the seventh Dragon Ball, although he had powerful magic, was clearly different from an ordinary Servant.
No, it's not about the sheer number of his divine-like treasures, but rather other characteristics.
That man seems to possess a real body? Not some kind of spiritual transformation, but a real physical body.
"The last Servant who obtained seven Dragon Balls wished to have a physical body to remain in this world."
Pendragon guessed, as the ahoge (cowlick) swung happily, waiting for the fight between the knock-off and the genuine product.
"This is the only possibility."
Miss Rin and the others stood behind Archer, chatting and laughing. The figure standing in front of them was like an impenetrable wall, capable of blocking any attacks.
So, should I wish for Saber to stay?
Suddenly, such a thought popped into Rin Tohsaka's mind, and then she shook her head violently to shake it away.
Absolutely not!
Given this guy's terrible personality, letting him stay would practically guarantee a miserable future for him.
I must be crazy to have such a thought!
Just as Miss Rin was feeling terrified by her own thoughts, on the other side, the battle between counterfeits and genuine products had only just begun.
"A counterfeit."
Jinpika let out a disdainful sound, but more so an angry one. His treasured collection was being crudely imitated, which was a desecration of a king.
"If you think you're stronger than me, then surpass me. Who says a pirated copy is inferior to the original? Do you even have enough Noble Phantasms, King of Heroes?"
Chapter 136 This Generation of Masters is Incompetent
Chapter 136
Emiya Shirou seems to have experienced many timelines, yet he didn't put any emotion into his lines.
The provocation from the monstrous cultivator enraged the Hero King even more, his terrifying red vertical pupils seeming to burn with mad flames.
What followed was a barrage of powerful attacks, raining down like a storm. The battle between the genuine and the counterfeit had only just begun.
"I am made of sword!"
Archer spread his five fingers towards the figure of the golden pika and began to chant. Updraft ↑↑↑
"Blood is iron, the heart is glass."
"This, this, this is..."
Lady Rin was taken aback by Archer's sudden powerful attack.
Seriously, it's as shocking as when Gold Pikachu suddenly pulls out so many Noble Phantasms, and Archer suddenly conjures up the same number of weapons of the same level!
"A Reality Marble! It's actually a Reality Marble!"
Rin Tohsaka and Lily were completely dumbfounded. Wasn't this Caster's skill? It represented the pinnacle of magic, a miracle second only to magic!
How could a mere archer possess a protective barrier?! This guy... isn't he a cook?
"Compared to this, don't you think his spells are a bit... too real?"
Pendragon considered the adjectives.
No, perhaps it's not that Red A's chanting is down-to-earth, but rather that the translator got wet while taking a shower? Or is it something purchased through a membership?
Pendragon's doubts did not stop Red A from continuing to unleash his ultimate attack, and Gold Pikachu, out of the pride of an authentic collector, actually stopped his attack, which was about to be launched, in a very chivalrous manner, while the enemy was casting.
A counterfeit is a counterfeit. What I possess is the treasure trove of the most authentic original texts. It would be too beneath me to act before the knock-offs are summoned!
The oldest legitimate copyright holders thought they would wait until this king of knockoffs produced all the pirated versions before crushing this boastful trash head-on.
"Never lost in countless battles."
"There was no victory, and no understanding."
"Enduring pain led to the creation of many weapons."
"But those hands can never be grasped."
"So when I pray, there are infinite blades."
Pendragon was incredibly embarrassed listening to the Chinese through the translator, and several times he wanted to take the thing out of his ear and listen to the original audio instead.
Even Japanese-style English is better than this translation.
"It really is a Reality Barrier!"
Even after Rin and the others were pulled into the Reality Barrier, they were still somewhat incredulous, but thankfully they could accept it, as they had made such a guess earlier.
Archer's Inherent Marble is a world filled with weapons, flames, and enormous gears, much like an ironworks; countless swords are preserved as if they were stuck in the ground.
"Archer's real profession isn't actually a cook, but a blacksmith?"
Rin does indeed have a prejudice against Archer; perhaps this timeline is incompatible with him.
"A blacksmith who can't clean isn't a good cook."
The Pendragons were surrounded by swords and knives, but they couldn't be pulled out. It felt like they were growing into the ground, integrated with the Reality Marble. No one except Archer could use them unless the Marble was broken.
"Well done, you bastard."
Kim Pikachu maintained the same posture she had adopted when she first appeared, as reserved as a young girl. She didn't even look at the scenery within the barrier, but simply praised Archer for doing something unexpected.
