-187- The type that kills you with song

Rozen and his group's ambush had made a significant significant impact on the enemy.

While the enemy's three servants are top-tier among Servants. But after being weakened by Amadeus' Noble Phantasm and then bolstered by Rozen's magical amplification, the gap between the two sides isn't as large as before.

Additionally, with only three enemy Servants compared to the four on Rozen's side, even excluding Amadeus, their forces are stronger. Once the battle started, the situation immediately tilted in Rozen's favor.

"Swoosh swoosh swoosh swoosh...!"

The air was cut by a rain of sword strikes.

"Clang clang clang clang clang...!"

A massive shield stood like a mountain, deflecting the continuous sword strikes, causing sparks to fly.

Mash effectively restrained d'Eon, forcing him to defend against her constant attack. Whenever d'Eon tried to withdraw to unleash his Noble Phantasm, Mash would immediately rush forward like a charging chariot, compelling d'Eon to abandon that plan and continue using his sword.

"Ugh...! Ahh...!"

Atalanta's voice was a constant low shout as she moved like the wind within the camp. She alternated between shooting arrows from her bow and using it as a close-range weapon, attacking her opponents relentlessly.

"Ha!"

Facing Atalanta's fierce attacks, Jeanne calmly maintained her defensive stance. With her flag waving, she either deflected the arrows that shot toward her or blocked the strikes, keeping Atalanta's assaults at bay.

These four Servants continued to engage each other, entering a deadlock.

However, the outcome remained the same. Mash and Jeanne, adept at defense, contained Atalanta and d'Eon, tipping the scales in Rozen's favor. This had been part of Rozen's plan from the beginning.

Even though Rozen didn't know the true names of d'Eon and Atalanta, it didn't hinder his strategy development.

"After analyzing the information so far, it's evident that the enemy's Archer is the most berserk. If we allow her to run wild in the camp, it could be very dangerous. While we don't know the specifics of the enemy's Saber's abilities, among the seven standard classes, Saber is traditionally considered the strongest."

"Against such Servants, the best approach would have been to focus on eliminating them during the initial ambush. But in terms of threat, I believe the enemy Rider's dragon mounts pose a greater danger."

"So, our initial tactic was to have Amadeus weaken the enemies with his Noble Phantasm and then have Mash and Jeanne, skilled in defense, restrain Saber and Archer. The remaining members would then focus on eliminating Rider ."

This was Rozen's tactical layout.

Considering this, Mash and Jeanne didn't rush to defeat their opponents; instead, they effectively restrained them.

Then, Elizabeth and Kiyohime could unleash their full firepower.

"Roar—!"

Unaware of being targeted, Tarasque roared, shaking the air. Raising its massive forelimbs, it swung down heavily in front of itself.

"Boom!"

With a resounding crash, the incredibly forceful strike shattered the ground, sending dirt and shockwaves flying.

However, even before this, Elizabeth and Chiyome had already darted to the sides, avoiding the direct blow.

"Don't let the enemies get away! Tarasque!"

Seated atop the dragon, Martha shouted loudly, her eyes gleaming with madness.

Clearly, once the battle began, this saint had also lost her reason due to madness, becoming utterly ruthless.

But that was precisely the effect Rozen desired.

"Go berserk..."

"Go berserk..."

"The more you lose control, the easier it is for us to seize the opportunity..."

Observing this scene, Rozen smiled while boosting the magic within him.

Elizabeth and Kiyohime immediately felt the influx of magic within them, they then smiled.

These two smiles, one innocent and the other beautiful, both radiated a danger no less than that of Tarasque.

All because these two girls were also dragons.

"So then... it's time to start!"

Elizabeth was the first to speak.

That meant one thing.

"Since the accompaniment is ready, let me sing a cherished song!"

Elizabeth took a deep breath, and at that moment, the surrounding air seemed to stir, forming gusts of wind that she inhaled.

——<Dragon Cry Thundering Voice (Kilenc Sarkany)>.

This was the true name of Elizabeth's Noble Phantasm.

It had the ability to amplify sound and vibrations, releasing a magical song that was capable of destroying and ravaging the listener's body and even their soul. Its power was such that it could instantly kill ten thousand African elephants.

Now, Elizabeth was prepared to unleash this Noble Phantasm.

Aaaaaaaaaaa~~~!!

In the next moment, a high note seemed to warp the air, turning into ultrasonic waves.

The ultrasonic waves tore through the earth, cleaved the ground, and with their invisible force, struck towards Tarasque.

The rank of this Noble Phantasm was D, and it was only Anti-Unit.

However, Elizabeth didn't realize that her high note wasn't just directed at Tarasque; it also reached the ears of everyone else.

"Ugh...!"

Rozen, who had been confident of victory, unexpectedly listened to the song for a moment and immediately felt as if he had been punched in the stomach, causing him to crouch down.

"What... What is this!?"

"This... this song...!"

Mash, Jeanne, d'Eon, and Atalanta, the four Servants currently in fierce combat, all froze in place, covering their ears in unison.

Even Amadeus, who was in the midst of activating his Noble Phantasm and playing the Requiem, paled and shivered, nearly dispersing the lingering effects of his Noble Phantasm due to the song's impact.

"Damn it...! What kind of garbage song is this...!? This is simply the worst sound in the world...! Bastard! Dog shit!"

Amadeus angrily cursed and shouted.

If Amadeus' music was considered evil, then Elizabeth's high note was genuinely capable of causing harm.

One can only imagine how facing such ultrasonic waves would affect Martha and Tarasque.

"My Lord..."

Martha prayed painfully.

"Roar--!"

Tarasque crouched on the ground, letting out a mournful cry.

Kiyohime, who was closest to the ultrasonic waves, was similarly affected.

"If it weren't for the Master's command, I, Kiyohime, would never have fought alongside this noise lizard!"

Kiyohime also covered her ears, her beautiful face contorted. Nevertheless, she still executed her original plan, launching a deadly attack.

<Samadhi Through Transforming Flames (Tenshin Kashou Zanmai)>!

As the true name of her Noble Phantasm was released, Kiyohime spun gracefully, her entire body engulfed in fearsome flames, surging with power.

"Roar!"

The sound of a dragon's roar resonated within the flames.
