[242] The Ultimate...

Bang, bang, bang, bang, bang——

The sea demon was stopped by Enkidu alone.

However...

Enkidu frowned as he looked at the sea demon in front of him. "This... what's going on?"

"What's wrong, Lancer?" Modred asked in confusion.

"I don't know... That sea demon seems to have no vital points... My Noble Phantasm should have pierced every inch of its body without any blind spots, but... it's still alive!"

"That's right, because the sea demon has already eliminated its vital points——"

"Ruler..." Looking at the saint who appeared on the side, Siegfried said.

"Ah, yes, it's me." Martha was too lazy to hide anything. Anyway... it was already known enough. This matter made her quite annoyed, but there was no way.

She thought she was hiding well!

"Alright, to make a long story short! Anyway, Caster has completely merged with that sea demon! In other words, it was eaten by that sea demon! Now, to end this, there is only one way: completely kill that sea demon, leaving not a single shred of flesh!"

"Is there a way?" Siegfried asked, "I'm sorry, but my Noble Phantasm doesn't have that kind of power. Although it can burn off a part of the flesh, it quickly regrows."

"No." Martha clenched her fist and said, "I can only punch! If it were before, I had the authority to kill every Servant, but now I don't have it anymore. There are no Servants left inside. Now, that is just a simple sea demon."

"Hey! If that's the case, why didn't you come earlier? Why only come now?" Modred complained.

"Well... you're too naggy! I also have my own things to do!" Martha blushed slightly. She couldn't say that she had just finished watching the ending of JOJO and temporarily put aside the revelations and the sea demon to see the final part of the story!

"Anyway... there must be a powerful Noble Phantasm to finish it off in one go! After that... I have something to tell you. It's a revelation from me! One Servant must be killed immediately! That Black Rider! The Servant named Dio, we must stop his conspiracy, otherwise the world will face a huge crisis!"

"Yes, yes, I don't know what the huge crisis is, I only know that this sea demon is difficult to deal with!" Modred said, "Anyway... we can only go up!"

...

On the other side.

Barthomeloi Lorelei also looked at the scene in front of her, thinking about ways to really defeat the sea demon... there were two ways.

One was Rider, and the other... the Berserker who had joined might also have this power. But the specific method needed to be tested.

However...

That Berserker was the trump card.

When dealing not with Rider, but with the enemy.

She didn't know what the Holy Church thought, but the Berserker from the black faction, who had not appeared all this time, was now in her hands.

It must be handled well.

If that's the case... things are already clear —— let Ozymandias come and kill this sea demon! But before that, if Gilgamesh could be persuaded to act, that would be even better.

She could observe from a distance for a while.

On the other hand, Ambrose Conant also thought the same way. He was also preparing to see if he could mobilize Gilgamesh. After all, in that Fate/Zero, Gilgamesh was disdainful of attacking such sea demons.

But... now Gilgamesh was already serious, and maybe... he would take action!

However, before that, if Ozymandias could be persuaded to act, it would be even better.

Although this sea demon was strong.

But——

Whether it was Ozymandias or Gilgamesh, they both had the ability to eliminate it!

The brilliance shown by the two kings that night was something that even this sea demon couldn't resist in those attacks.

On the other hand, Enkidu's attacks were also powerful, although he could even block EA, it was not a beam-type Noble Phantasm after all... it might not have the power needed...

...

"King of Heroes, it's time for you to step in," Kirei Kotomine said to Gilgamesh.

"Oh... you mean you want this King to deal with that lump of flesh?" In front of Gilgamesh, there was a golden ring floating in mid-air, embedded with peculiar twisted lenses.

This single-sided lens, like a telescope, projected the distant huge sea demon and the Servant fighting against it.

"You should know, Kirei, that disgusting thing from that huge demon, this King can't even be bothered to look at it. If it weren't for this King's close friend over there, this King wouldn't even care about this. You dare to call something that can't even handle those lumps of flesh a heroic spirit?" Gilgamesh sneered discontentedly.

"But, Gilgamesh," Kirei Kotomine's lips curled imperceptibly into a smile. "In that place, your close friend Enkidu is there. By saying so, aren't you implying that Enkidu is not a heroic spirit?"

"You're getting worse at talking, aren't you?" Gilgamesh squinted slightly. "Did this King misjudge you, or have you become more malicious at some point?"

With that, Gilgamesh laughed. "Hey, Kirei. It seems like you're scheming something. Care to share how it goes?"

"No, I haven't schemed anything."

"Really? Then... I remember today you went out alone, right? What were you up to?"

"Just had breakfast."

"Breakfast?" Gilgamesh laughed. "Now you're involved in betraying the Iscariot, and as this King, don't you know the importance? Even if you occasionally go out, there are capable Executors protecting you. But... you've dismissed them and did something alone. No plans? Just having breakfast? You've become more interesting, haven't you?"

"Let's leave it at that. What's your answer, Gilgamesh..." Kirei Kotomine remained expressionless. Even if he was known, it wasn't enough. However, knowing these things was still far from enough!

"Alright!" Gilgamesh stood up with a smile. "Let this King move a bit, as a prelude to the final battle... just show a bit of the King's brilliance before the grand finale—"
