How Unpleasant

Inside the hall, a brightly colored mist started to fill up, and the smell of the mist was so fragrant that it caused the people who smelled it to be intoxicated.

However, in front of this mist, the expression of Jeanne and Mordred changed at the same time.

"Danger...!"

"Poison...!"

Two servants leaped back without hesitation.

However, those moves were simply meaningless in front of those brightly colored mists that covered up the entire hall.

*BOOOM!*

The door behind which had just been destroyed by Mordred suddenly restored in sway like a mirage, and closed this place with a loud sound, without letting anything or anything escape or enter.

At the same time, the surrounding space was also twisted, making this vast hall even larger, caused both Jeanne and Mordred who retreated at the speed close to a bullet shot didn't even close their distance with the door at all.

As a result, the thick poisonous mist filled the entire space with a very fast speed, without leaving any space behind, and at the same time, the poisonous mist also began to invade the bodies of both Jeanne and Mordred.

"This...!"

Jeanne felt her body was very uncomfortable at that moment, but then, she moved slightly and all the poison inside her body was being eaten by Shinobu's poison. She didn't move and tried to make an antidote for Semirami's poison quietly.

On the other hand, Mordred was confused.

"Is this the Noble Phantasm of that nasty bitch..!?"

"Sikera Usum: Arrogant King's Alcohol."

Semiramis's second Noble Phantasm, and it could be said that it was even stronger than her Hanging Garden of Babylon. It was her main Noble Phantasm and also her symbol as the oldest poison user.

This Noble Phantasm could make Semiramis's surrounding space and even magic have the characteristic of "poison", enabling her to create any poison anywhere as long as she wanted.

The moment Semiramis used this Noble Phantasm, even the small fire that she created would become poisonous, showing how strong this Noble Phantasm was.

In the Holy Grail War, if Semiramis was summoned then she would use this Sikera Usum as her main of Noble Phantasm, but, if the master could collect the material of the Hanging Garden of Babylon and created that legendary floating garden, then the effect of the poison would increase several times, reaching a very terrifying level.

Within this floating garden, Semiramis could control the space itself and at the same time, she could send the poison that was made by this Sekira Usum to any place within the floating garden, making her close to an invincible state.

Furthermore, when Semiramis was within the "Hanging Gardens of Babylon", she could even summon creatures of the Phantasmal Species if they had an anecdote related to poison, such as the Basmu.

Although this Noble Phantasm was only B+ Rank of Noble Phantasm, within this "Hanging Gardens of Babylon" its strength was comparable to the A+ Rank of Noble Phantasm.

"Saber of Red!"

Jeanne quickly shouted out, looking at Mordred beside her, worried that something might happen to her since she needed her help.

"Don't worry! I still have my armor! At least, there won't be any problem in a short time!"

Mordred immediately responded and she raised the sword in her hand.

"Is this the only thing that you can do, nasty bitch? Then I will kill you first!"

After those shouts, Mordred burst into red lightning all over her body. Under the effect of this "Mana Burst", she turned into a red flash and launched a surprise attack toward Semiramis.

In response, Semiramis still sat on her throne and smiled lazily, stretched out her hand, and snapped her fingers.

*Snap!*

Then suddenly a crisp clashing sound rang, causing sparks to burst out.

"What?"

Mordred, who leaped to the throne and slammed her sword, couldn't help but let out a surprised voice.

In front of Semiramis, a barrier appeared, blocking Mordred's attack easily.

Mordred raised her brow then quickly slashed her sword several times toward the barrier, causing a spark of fire to appear one after another, but her attack failed to break the barrier.

"What a barbaric way of fighting, rebellious knight."

Semiramis chuckled, showed her disdain, then snapped her fingers again.

Suddenly, a chain made of poisonous gas appeared and moved in the direction of Mordred like a snake about to bite down its prey!

"It's useless!"

Mordred yelled loudly, and the sword in her hand was brandished like a tornado.

*Crash!*

The sharp blade slashed the poisonous chain, destroyed it, and dissipated into the air.

Mordred's momentum didn't stop, and her sword was shining with red lightning, then without hesitation, she used all of her power to cut down Semiramis!

Seeing the approaching blade, Semiramis didn't have the slightest fear in her eyes, but rather a ridicule.

"!!!"

Seeing the ridicule in Semiramis's eyes clearly, Mordred felt an unprecedented crisis, and stopped her attack, before quickly retreating by stomping the barrier in front of her, and almost at the same time, chains with hooks like a scorpion's stinger on their ends sprang out from behind the throne where Semiramis was sitting.

The chains were like a viper, strangled in an empty space.

If Mordred hadn't stopped her attack just now, her body could have been pierced by the chains and her body would be filled with poison in an instant.

Semiramis raised her brows because she didn't expect Mordred to avoid a sneak attack before.

"It seems that your instincts are as sharp as a monkey, rebellious knight."

Obviously, it was because of Mordred's instinct that she could avoid Semiramis's attack before.

Unlike Jeanne's "Revelation," Mordred's "Instinct" worked quite differently.

The "Revelation" was like a picture that suddenly appeared on the head of the user, giving a lot of information about a lot of things.

It was like how Amakusa Shirou Tokisada, who could learn about Haru's existence, and at how, he learned some of Haru's ability such as "pleasure magic" and at how Jeanne also relied on "Revelation" to find out the location of the Red Faction many times before.

However "Instinct" was like a sixth sense, Mordred might not be able to see what Semiramis was about to do, but her "Instinct," told her that there was a danger and was able to avoid it beforehand.

"But how many times can your "instinct" help you?"

Waving her hands, a number of poisonous chains were moving in the direction of Modred.

"Like I said before! It's useless!"

Mordred shouted and brandished her sword toward the countless chains that came toward her, instead of retreating.

After all, it wasn't her style to dodge an attack.

As a rebellious knight who fought against King Arthur, Mordred wanted to wipe clean the smug face of this nasty bitch!

Until her head was cut off, Mordred would continue to charge!

Even the result of this fight would mean her death.

On the other hand, Jeanne, who had created an antidote for the poison, also encountered unexpected obstacles.

"You..!"

Jeanne looked at two servants who appeared in front of her with a surprised expression.

"...I was transferred into this poisonous place so suddenly.. that empress is really fucked up..."

"It's really unpleasant."

Achilles and Atalante.

Two heroes of Greek mythology appeared in front of Jeanne with displeased expressions.
