I just want to see the Meteor
I forgot to change the ranking of Gae Bolg. It is not a B rank NP but a SS rank.

Mist covered the whole river (lake?) beneath the Fuyuki City Bridge.
Caster still stood at his same position with his Noble Phantasm within his hands, eyes closed, and looking at the sky with a relaxed posture. As if all of his tension leaving his body, him getting liberated from all of his past sins.
The same purple liquid still didn't stop from spilling out of his Noble Phantasm, merging with the lake beneath.
SCREEEEEECH!*
A car stopped at the other side of the river; Saber, Irisviel, and Masato coming out of it.
"This incredible outpouring of mana…" Saber looked at it with a frown and said, "... makes it clear that Caster is in the process of some incredible magic."
'Well… no shit sherlock!' Masato jokes internally.
Caster felt their presence and looked in their direction before bowing.
"Welcome, Holy Virgin. I am overjoyed that we have met again."
"You never learn, fiend! What are you trying to do tonight?" Saber replied while Masato already had Est manifested within his hands.
Now that his system was already online, he was not going to listen to some ramble shit of some yandere madman after a holy girl.
"I am terribly sorry, Jeanne. But you're not the guest of honor today."
"And you are not the performer, sadly." A voice came from Caster's behind.
Masato gripped Est's hand before thrusting it towards Caster's back, but suddenly, a wall of tentacle rose between him and Caster.
His sword pierced the tentacle, but Caster was able to get out of it safely.
"I am using Est, dammit! What are you doing letting an 'underage' (for the society) touch a tentacle?" Masato grumbled before he poured Spiritual Energy within Est.
She released a silver brilliance, enough to blind anyone; Masato pulled her back before thrusting upwards.
The river, starting from him, divided into two.
"Hm?" Masato narrowed his eyes as Caster was nowhere to be seen anymore.
"Masato!" Saber called to him, but he ignored and looked down.
"Did I not say that I'm not here to film tentacle porn?"
Even though he joked, he hurriedly teleported at Artoria's side.
Burble*
Suddenly, a huge water movement occurred where Masato was before a giant monster started to rise from there.
Caster stood at the top of it with different tentacles pulling him within the monster.
"Caster… is being absorbed?" Irisviel asked with astonishment.
"You who have been abandoned, gather here! I shall lead you! I shall rule you! The resentment and rage of we, the oppressed, shall reach unto God himself!"
"There he goes with his mad rant again…" Staring at the big monster that was still rising from the waters, Masato said unimpressed.
'Should I use that? I always wanted to try using that too…'
While he was thinking, Caster continued with his monologue, "God in Heaven, with words of condemnation, I praise Your holy name!"
"O Arrogant God! O Cruel God! We shall pull you down from your throne!"
"That's…" Artoria was left speechless looking at the giant monster that has risen even above the bridge.
Crack* Rumble* Boom*
Just then, the sound of thunder filled the surroundings.
Masato, Saber, and Artoria -- they looked behind and saw the war chariot of Rider, who came with his Master.
"Yo~!" Rider raised his hand and waved, still as carefree as always.
"King of Conquerors…" Saber took a defensive position towards him, protecting Irisviel behind her.
"Hey, stop it." He raised his hands seeing this, "We're calling a truce for the night."
"We won't be able to have any kind of fight unless we deal with that thing. I've been going around telling everybody." He looked at Masato and said, "Or if Masato were to help us, we could kill that thing quite easily."
Masato shrugged, "Even if you don't say, I've already made my preparations."
"Hahaha! Great then, we shall lend you a hand until you are ready to take that thing down!" Rider laughed.
"That giant monster is being fed by the Caster, so if we kill that power source, then we should be easily able to kill him with Masato-san's help," Irisviel said while looking at the giant monster.
"But Caster is deep within that monster…" Rider interjected.
"The only option is to drag him out of there, only then can we take care of him." A voice came from the side as Lancer manifested there.
"I think you people seem to have forgotten something," Masato looked at Rider and Lancer before smirking, "I didn't ask for any of you peeps help."
"Oh! Then you will take care of all alone?" Rider asked, "Even with your eyes, it would take a tremendous amount of Mana if you want to take down that monster."
That's right. Even though he was able to use his eyes with <<The Almighty>>, the amount of Mana used was by no means small.
After the upgrade, his eyes require 10,000s of Mana to even activate and kill anything with just a look -- though he could use the normal mode passively. Just from this, one could guess how much it would need if he needed to take care of such a giant monster.
Those were the eyes of a God, and his Mana was by no means close to a God-level being. Even though he could convert his energy into Divine Energy and reduce the use by 5000, the conversion made the amount used the same.
For example, he could make 10 points of spiritual energy by converting 10 points of mana, but he would require 1000 points to get one point in divine energy.
The stronger the energy, the more mana he would require to change it into that energy.
After all, the process included the condensation of mana into higher energy.
By looking at the monster, he could see thousands if not hundreds of death lines on it, with each line requiring 10,000s of mana to kill -- it was basically an impossible endeavor.
"You don't have to worry about that," Masato replied before walking in the direction of the river, "To kill such an unsightly creature, I've no need to cast my eyes upon it."
As he finished, he raised Est upwards and pointed it at the sky, "As the ruler of Mana, I command thee. Bear my will and execute it."
'Seriously… can't this chant be changed at this point?'
He really wanted to change it. But, sadly, this chant was imprinted in his mind when he first got mana-related skills. Meaning, it was the chant provided by the system itself.
"That's…"
Everyone looked astonished as a huge magical circle opened just above the monster.
The sound of chains was heard before a halberd started to come out of the magical circle, its blade pointing towards the monster.
{
[Sōkyoku: A++]
Type: Anti-Unit Anti-Country
Information: A weapon used by Soul Society to execute those who have gone against the rules. It is a spiritual weapon that does extra damage to those with spiritual attributes (souls). It is a weapon that is said to even burn the soul of its victim if executed successfully.
After it successfully hits the target, its power is increased tenfold.
}
It was the weapon that he stole from the soul society and left an imitation behind for them to seal.
"A halberd?" Everyone looked confused while looking at it as in Masato's legend, there was no talk of any halberd being used by him.
"He can also use halberd? Is there anything he can't use? Magecraft, swordsmanship, spearmanship, and now halberd!" Waver shouted while looking at Masato, who ignored him.
'I didn't have any chance of using it in soul society nor in dungeons as most of my time was spent either training with Unohana or reading through their research.'
But now he can let it free.
---
Gilgamesh was flying in the air, examining everything going on beneath.
He looked at the halberd amusingly.
"His Excellency, are you really not going to interfere?" Tokiomi asked. As a magus, he can't let normal people see such scenes any longer.
"Tokiomi…" Gilgamesh turned his eyes towards him and asked, "Are you suggesting that this King shall dirty his hand on such an insightful creature?"
"His Excellency, that creature is destroying your garden." Tokiomi asked, "Will you let him do so?"
"It is gardners duty to clean it and not the Kings." Gilgamesh replied with a displeased expression, "Watch what you say, mongrel."
"But His Excellence--"
"Tokiomi… have you forgotten our deal or perhaps you would like me to remind you?"
Tokiomi gnashed his teeth, looking at the commands' seals.
'Should I use one?'
"Watch, Tokiomi. He is going to provide me entertainment." Gilgamesh said with a smirk before taking a sip from his cup and staring at the halberd."
---
The halberd that was sealed by the chain was finally released.
Losing the support that was holding it connected with the other space, it started to feel fall towards the monster.
"Sōkyoku!" Masato said its name, completely not needed but he just wanted to say it.
Suddenly, the falling halberd started to release fire from its tip before it was completely engulfed in it.
Screeech!
A loud bird cry was heard as everyone looked with astonished faces as the halberd changed into something entirely else.
"Phoenix!?" Waver almost pissed his pants seeing it.
"A Phantasmal Beasts…" Even Rider, Saber, and Irisviel were shocked to the core.
Masato ignored everyone's reaction while eagerly waiting for it to pierce the monster.
And it did not disappoint him as it flapped its wing and directly pierced through the monster. A huge splash of water rose from the ground, but Masato suddenly narrowed his eyes.
"Not enough…"
Yes. Even with its power, it was not enough to completely evaporate the monster due to its inhuman regeneration power.
"It… it's regenerating the damage it is taking!" Irisviel shouted.
"What a monster…" Rider said as he narrowed his eyes, "Hey, need any help?"
"No need," Masato replied.
He raised his foot and stomped it on the ground.
<<Spatial Distortion>>
Another magical circle bloomed with him as its center, covering more than 3 kilometers.
The space around this radius started to bend before it became unstable. Every flame or tentacle that reached the boundary of 3 kilometers would vanish before appearing in the center of it.
He purely created this distorted space so he can use another item that has been dead since he got it.
"Come on! He can even use Space Magecraft now! What kind of cheating Servant is he!?" Waver shouted at the injustice of the world.
Everyone ignored his crying and looked at Masato, who raised his left hand and staff suddenly appeared in it, confusing everyone.
"Are you going to use magecraft now?" Rider asked.
Masato looked at the text that appeared on his retina.

[Adept's Brimstone Staff (Albion Online): A+]
Type: Anti-Unit, Anti-Fortress, Anti-Country
Information: A Tier 4 Fire Staff made of Pine Wood and Steal, with Adept's Burning Orb as its base.
It provides the user with the following spells;
Fire Bolt, Burning Field.
Ignite, Wall of Flames, Fire Wave, FireBall, and Fire Artillery.
Meteor

Only four skills can be chosen during its use. Other skills will be rendered useless. A skill can only be changed after 24 hours have been passed after the previous one was chosen.
<<Burn: Every normal attack sets the enemy on fire, dealing an additional 260 HP per second for 2.5s>>
<<Energetic: Every normal attack, you restore 40 energy>>
<< Aggressive Caster: Every 4 activated spells, you gain a cast speed buff of 40% for 3s>>
<<Furious: Every 5 activated spells, all your damage gets increased by 10% for 4s>>
}
It was the staff that he had gotten in the Bleachverse and which was lying useless in his inventory.
Looking at the passive skills, he set it as <<Burn>> before checking on <<Meteor>>...
{
<<Meteor: Summons a meteor that will hit the ground several seconds after the casting is completed. On impact it deals (base) 13220 magical damage, and knocks all enemies hit away from the point of impact (This damage can't be reflected.)>>
}
Looking at the data, he looked back at the Caster and saw his HP that was reaching 100000.
'The meteor would cause way too much damage for sure.' he looked around, at the civilians, 'Hmm…'
"W-what is he going to do now?" Waver asked, the intense heat still evaporating the water.
"Let's do it then." He said and pointed Est at the Caster.
<<Ryūbi no Jōmon>>
Pillars formed at the edge of Est before he waved her, making them move and arrange themselves in front of the monster and creating a wall or shield.
<<Kokō no Jōmon>>
A barrier appears at the top of the monster and the phoenix, in the shape of a windmill.
<<Kigai no Jōmon>>
Different hexagon structures rose around the monsters, forming a honeycomb-like structure.
<<Hōyoku no Jōmon>>
After all three sides were covered, a wall of fire rose from which came obelisk and many planks, forming together to form a sort of lampshade resembling folding wings and a crude bird's head.
"And finally…"
<<Shijū no Saimon>>
As he said that, the four barriers came together and formed a rectangular prison-like barrier around the Caster.
'Now there would be no damage to the surroundings…'
He raised the staff and pointed at the Caster.
<<Meteor>>
"O-oi! Isn't that an overkill!!" Waver finally couldn't control himself and shout.
Everyone held their breath as a giant meteor made its way towards the monster, bypassing the barrier and hitting it.
A loud explosion happened, creating an earthquake as a result.
Waves were created as they hit the shore, but all of this was stopped by the barrier from destroying the Fuyuki City.
Was it overkill? Of course it was! But Masato just wanted to use <<Meteor>> so much that he just couldn't stop himself from using it!
And he also thought he just looked badass as fuck right now, without how everyone was looking at him with wide eyes.
"... what can I say… are you a Grand Caster?" Rider asked with a bitter face.
"Close… but I am a Grand Saber," Masato replied while marveling at the beautiful scene in front of his eyes.
"Saber…? You have to be kidding with me…" Even Lancer had a pale face.
Saber? He is a Saber? And he has not used his sword even once! Just how powerful is this dude? -- everyone Servant had more or less the same thought process.
{
Ding! You've slain an enemy Servant - Caster!
10, 213, 573 XP has been gained!
You have leveled up! X2
5 Healing Portions: EX has been added to your inventory.
1 Gacha has been entered into your inventory!
}
'Only two level-ups? It seems that it is going to be hard to level up from now on.'
While he was looking at the screen, everyone was looking at him with grim faces; mostly Lancer, Rider, and Waver.
Many masters were already afraid of his powers, and now he showed even more so. Will they sit silent now that they know that he has used a 'huge' amount of mana to defeat Caster?
"On my command seal, I command you -- Berserker, Lancer, Saber -- kill Aster Pendragon!"
