Invading the Castle
(2 out of 4 chapters this week)
"What are you waiting for!? Assist him!" Goredolf exclaimed with some sweat at the Rider of Black, who was lazily standing there and looking at how two Sabers were fighting.
"Huh? But it's their fight!" The purple-haired knight complained when he heard the order!
"It's a war! I command you to assist my Saber!" The blonde Master commanded with a sweaty look.
"Geez! Fine!"
However, before he can do anything, a beam of gold separates the Black faction fighters.
"!!!"
"!!!"
Saber of Black and Rider of Black jumped aside, and the beam of gold missed them entirely, not that the beam intended to hit anything.
'That beam! Its—'
"Father!?"
Mordred exclaimed with shock.
Just like she thought it was King of Knights! The fog cleared up, revealing a girl dressed in a blue dress and silver armour holding a golden sword.
"Don't look surprised, Mordred; I haven't fought anything yet." The golden sword-wielding fighter said with a casual tone.
"Impossible! Red Faction has two Sabers!?" Goredolf exclaimed with horror.
"No, I am the victor of another Grail War. It's just that you are unlucky that my Master is the victor of two grail wars." The other Saber explained as she walked over to stand next to Mordred.
'Oh wow…I will be fighting next to Father! This battle is so awesome!!!'
Mordred could barely control herself and not start shaking from giddiness!
"Impossible! The previous war was more than 60 years ago!" The Magus wasn't buying at all!
"Whatever! Now, let's fight!"
Artoria roared as she lunged forward to fight against Rider, who used his sword to block the strike, but the force behind the strike sent him flying.
"I will deal with Rider while you continue your fight against Saber."
"R-Right!"
As the fight continued, Goredolf panicked as he had no proper bodyguards.
"Watch out!" At that moment, a homunculi jumped forward and blocked a bullet.
It was an actual finger! Not a bullet.
"Damn. Your homunculi act as shields. Not bad." Tall and burly Necromancer said with a slightly praised voice.
The fat blonde paled, seeing the Necromancer. He knew who this was!
With such opposition, the Master of Saber of Black ordered the golems to start attacking the Master of Saber of Red.
The golems were the creation of their Caster, and they are not that fragile. While against another Servant, they are pretty weak, but against a Master, they are more than enough.
*Tsk*
Kairi clicked his tongue, seeing the golems moving towards him.
His ammo isn't that good against something which is not flesh. That's why he wanted to snipe the fat man instead of having a prolonged fight.
"Not so taught now, are you? These are golems made by our Caster! They are not some simple moving rocks!" Goredolf started to brag, seeing that the Necromancer took cover against the golems, which were throwing rocks at Saber of Red Master.
"Go get him! Kill him! Once he is dead, Saber of Red will cease to exist!"
~~~
'Darnic! I request a Command Spell! This Berserker's Master created this Servant to face me!' Lancer of Black used his connection with his Master to request assistance.
'Fine. I am sending Berserker as well for backup.'
The Count clicked his tongue, hearing that he needed backup! This land was his homeland! This land was a place where he should be invincible!
"Are you done? Is your Master sending reinforcements?"
His opponent's voice made the Lord Impaler grimace for a second. This brat is looking down on him!
"Let me teach you what happens when you provoke someone you shouldn't!"
A red aura surrounded Lancer as he swirled his lance.
"Kazikli Bey!!!"
A sea of spikes rushed towards the armoured Berserker.
"What a performance! I can already see the horror in the eyes of the Ottomans when they saw such a spectacle! But…"
The Armoured Berserker jumped into the sky as black lines drew under his feet, taking the shape of a construct.
This construct was a Jet Fighter.
It was the same with the Master of Archer of Red, who disappeared before the spikes could impale him.
A frown appeared on Lancer's face when he saw that his Noble Phantasm missed!
'Impossible! I can deploy Kazikli Bey with mere thought! How can he dodge something like that!!!'
The Lancer looked frustrated about his constant failures!
*Roar*
A bunch of missiles rushed towards Lancer of Black straight at him from the sky.
*Tsk*
The servant turned into ghost form and disappeared and reappeared several metres away.
*BOOM**BOOM**BOOM*
'This Berserker can use weaponry of any sort. Is it his Noble Phantasm?'
After another fly-by, more missiles rushed towards the Count.
Dracula blocked it with more spikes.
'What an annoying Servant.'
~~~
As Ren was observing the fight, he sensed a presence. Lightning crackled as he sidestepped from incoming attack.
When he turned around, he saw a girl with a massive mace; she had a horn coming out from her forehead.
Weirdly enough, this girl's dress is pure white, similar to a wedding dress.
"You dodged that!?"
A teen voice said from behind this weird girl.
"You want me NOT to dodge that? That mace looks heavy." Ren asked with a raised eyebrow.
"That's not what I meant! You were able to dodge a blow from a Servant!" A teen with light brown hair wearing glasses exclaimed with an annoyed tone. He realised that Ren was messing with him.
"You sound as if it's a hard thing to do." The Magician rolled his eyes as, the next second, Atalante appeared next to him.
"You want to fight?" He asked his Servant.
"Yes. I think it's time for me to earn my upkeep." She said that while summoning her bow.
The opposing Master looked at her with wide eyes.
"T-That's an Archer!?"
His voice was full of disbelief. He could see the parameters of this Servant!
[Archer of Red]
[Strength: C]
[Endurance: D]
[Agility: EX]
[Mana: EX]
[Luck: D]
[NP:EX]
"She is my Servant. I have improved her parameters through several rituals. As you can see, she is quite capable."
"Master, your sly praises won't earn you anything." Though her voice was sharp, one could see a slight blush. The girl isn't immune to praise like this.
"Yes, Yes. Now go on fight this Berserker."
"Understood!"
The Huntress pulled the bowstring and shot an arrow. Her speed was off the charts. The Berserker of Black was barely able to move as the arrow slammed into her chest.
"Berserker! Tsk! Attack her! Get close! That's your only chance."
"Yeah, about that. I doubt it will work."
Ren commented like a commentator who was watching a fighting match.
Atalante quickly dashed out from the incoming attack and released a few more arrows into Berserker.
'Something is not right! This thing is not going down! My Bow is a Divine Construct!' The lion girl realised that the girl in front of her was not human. The looks aside, she can smell that it's not human.
'Fine! Let's see how you handle this!'
Her bow proceeded to glow as she slowly pulled the bow string.
The arrow manifested in the bow, and then she released it.
Seeing incoming a large blast, the Master of Berserker swiftly used his command spell.
The tattoo glowed, and the Servant disappeared before she could hit!
*BOOM*
The blast sent the Master of Berserker flying several metres, landing on the ground on his side. He then proceeded to roll for several metres.
"I missed?" Atalante frowned as she realised that something was off.
'He recalled his Servant. Go and assist Lancelot. Snipe that Lancer for me.'
Hearing her Master's command, the lioness nodded and rushed into the forest, where explosions and spikes from the ground constantly rose and fell.
Ren looked in the direction where she went, too. He could only snort at how stupid this battle had become.
Vlad is a powerful Servant, but he constantly weakens himself only to use one Noble Phantasm. Not only that, but his Kazikli Bey Noble Phantasm linked to his Personal Skill, which appeared because of his summon circumstances. Being summoned in his homeland has its perks and downsides.
Once Ren stopped thinking about the circumstances, he looked to the Master of Berserker, who slowly stood up and started to walk away.
"Hey, do you need help?"
The Magician asked with an amused tone.
"...No. I am alright. Thanks for asking."
"Great. Then we can continue with our fight."
The guy stiffened when he heard that. He slowly turned around. There were a couple of bruises on his face. The light brown-haired teen was holding his hand. It looked like he got injured from that collision with the ground.
"..."
"Well? Are you going to wait, or should I start?" Ren asked casually as one of his hands went to his pocket.
"Just get on with it…"
"Sure. But I have a question for you." The Magician asked him as one of his legs moved to the side.
"...Ask."
"Can you swim?"
"...Yeah?"
"Good. I hope you are not too bad at it." With the tap of his leg, the earth started to tremble, and gazers of water erupted from the sides.
This water proceeded to turn into a massive flood and slowly morph into a tsunami.
"H-Hold it!!!" The Master of Berserker paled as he saw a massive wave slamming into him.
Ren was on top of it as if surfing the wave.
"Let's visit your castle!"
~~~~~~Yggdmillennia Castle~~~~~~
The Masters of Black Faction looked exceptionally closely at how the fight between Rider of Red and Archer of Black continues at the outskirts of their castle.
The Caster of Black already recovered Berserker of Red.
*Tremble*
"Hmm?"
"Did you hear something?"
"G-Grandfather!" A light brown-haired girl in a wheelchair exclaimed when she saw a wave of water rushing towards their castle.
"...What in Root is that!?" Darnic, the Master of Lancer of Black, exclaimed with shock and some horror. He didn't expect that!
Slowly, the water morphed into a fist as it slammed into the castle's walls.
The wave of water destroyed the fortification with no effort whatsoever.
"To arms! We must defend the Greater Grail!" Darnic rushed first to defend the castle. The rest followed right after him.
~~~
Ren looked around and saw many Homunculi and Golems already waiting for him.
At that moment, with a burst of light, his Ruler manifested next to him.
"Oh? Are you going to help me?"
"You are my Master; as your Servant, I must protect you," Jeanne said with a matter-of-fact voice. She summoned her flag.
"How cute. Well, suit yourself."
As he said that, blue portals appeared behind him, and he released a salvo of Noble Phantasms at the enemies.
"..."
Jeanne never expected him to use Noble Phantasms like that!
"...You share the same power as your wife has!?"
"More precisely, it was one of several gifts I gave her," Ren explained to her as they proceeded to walk into the castle's interior yard.
"By my command spell! Lancer! Come to my— *Oof*" Before Darnic could use his second command spell, a shield slammed into his face.
"Yeah, no. My Servants are having fun fighting your Count." Ren frowned while saying that. The Head of Yggdmillennia flew away into the castle's interior from the collision with a shield.
"I never saw a shield used as a projectile," Jeanne commented with some interest. She had never seen such a thing before!
"As long as I have mana and medium like my gate, I can use anything as projectiles. I copied this Noble Phantasm from King of Heroes."
"I see…"
"Now, why don't we take that Greater Grail? Once we have it, can we make people come to us instead of us coming to them?" Ren proposed this randomly as he was having fun and doing things which came to his mind.
His wife asked him to have some fun, so he was doing just that.
"...I suppose. I am your Servant, Master. If you think that, then just do it."
