-924- Witness the final demise

At this moment, Altera became the object of fear for everyone present. Standing in front of the scene she had just destroyed with her own hands, wielding the tri-colored sword, she didn't even spare a glance at the others, just staring ahead.

In this situation, everyone else also realized the gravity of the situation and turned their heads to look forward.

"Ugh...!"

A voice filled with resentment echoed from the front.

In the hollow where everything had been destroyed, Solomon was suspended in mid-air, holding his hands in front of him as if he had blocked the attack, smoke rising from his entire body. The menacing magic power on him had become extremely weak.

Obviously, Solomon had exerted all his strength to block the destructive blow just now.

"So you manage to survive?"

Altera coldly spoke to Solomon in response.

Originally dominant and possessing absolute power, capable of unilaterally suppressing many renowned heroes present, even a mage of Solomon's caliber who could easily deal with hundreds of summoned servents in their true form, now suffered such a heavy blow from Altera, a single Servant.

In response to this...

"Why?"

Solomon didn't express any doubts about Altera's power, nor did he find it strange that he was being suppressed. Instead, he angrily accused Alterastanding before Rozen.

"Why are you here!?"

This was the question Solomon had asked just now.

However, Solomon's true intention was not to inquire why Altera could manifest. What Solomon really wanted to ask was...

"Why are you siding with humans!?"

Solomon questioned Altera with an angry accusation.

"You shouldn't be on the side of humans! You shouldn't!"

This statement from Solomon was so certain and firm.

Just because...

"You are the true enemy of the world! The enemy of civilization! The enemy of humanity!"

Solomon angrily accused Altera.

"Why would someone like you stand on the side of humans!? This is impossible! Absolutely impossible!"

Solomon spoke as if muttering to himself, resisting reality, and his expression continued to distort.

Solomon's words made the other Servants once again look at the ice-cold Altera, and a chill ran through their hearts.

From Solomon's attitude, it could be seen that this mastermind behind the Incineration of Humanity was aware of Altera's existence and even considered her an entity capable of standing on equal footing with him, perhaps of the same nature.

Such an existence could not possibly be just an ordinary Heroic Spirit.

Who is she?

Why does she possess such terrifying power?

Why can Rozen summon her?

Why?

Like Solomon, the other Servants were filled with questions and doubts.

However, Altera did not answer, or perhaps she believed she had no need to answer.

"Disappear."

Altera only stared at Solomon, declaring in a mechanical, emotionless voice.

"If you won't disappear, then be destroyed."

Altera issued a cold ultimatum to Solomon.

This made Solomon's expression even more twisted.

"Even if it's you, do you think you can stop me?"

The ominous magic power surged again from Solomon.

"Don't think I can't see it. Your power is nowhere near what it used to be. Now you only have the power of a Heroic Spirit. Even if you can destroy everything, don't think you can stop me!"

Solomon roared in such a low voice.

And it was true.

As Altera's Master, the true owner in essence, Rozen was well aware of Altera's strength.

Undoubtedly, Altera was very powerful, extremely powerful in that sense. However, in terms of sheer strength, Altera had not reached the level where she could overwhelm a Grand Servant like Solomon.

As the colossal god Altera had stated, she was only created as an incarnation with Heroic Spirit specifications.

So, even with an absolute contract with Rozen, the most outstanding Master without equal, Altera's strength, while significantly enhanced compared to her time as a Heroic Spirit, was at best on par with Scáthach and Karna and couldn't compare with Solomon, a Grand Servant.

However, Altera possessed a special attack against the world and civilization, making her an arch-nemesis for Solomon.

After all, even if Solomon is not a god, much of his power comes from divine bestowal.

Moreover, as a Grand Servant, he is an existence that can only be summoned by the world itself. His very being is a weapon of the world, with a Saint Graph formed directly by the world. Faced with Attila, who has a special attack against the world, it can be imagined how dire the situation would be.

Considering this, if it were a formidable opponent at the Grand Servant level, Altera would not stand a chance.

However, when facing an opponent like Solomon, the agent of the gods, the world's weapon, and a Servant with a Grand Saint Graph, Altera might not be able to win outright, but she could certainly counter him.

Naturally, countering is still just countering.

Solomon is ultimately not a god, and he is not helpless against Altera. His strength is incredibly formidable, and even if relying solely on raw power to crush, it is not impossible to defeat Altera.

The fact that he managed to survive under Altera's destruction is proof enough.

However, this is by no means an easy battle.

At least, if Solomon were to approach the fight with a playful attitude, the outcome would undoubtedly be very ugly.

In summary...

"Come then."

Altera raised the weapon in her hand, shining like lightning, rainbow, and avant-garde design, pointing it towards Solomon.

"I will destroy you."

Her concise words made all the sounds in the surroundings disappear.

The assembled Servants observed everything in silence.

Rozen, on the other hand, gazed at Altera and Solomon confronting each other, his eyes flickering slightly.

Solomon's expression kept changing.

Finally...

"Hmph."

All expressions disappeared from Solomon's face, replaced by the same ice-cold and ruthless demeanor as Altera.

"Never mind. I've played enough. There's no need to expend all my power in a place like this."

Solomon let his gaze pass through Altera and landed on Rozen.

"Your fate is already sealed. You will turn to ashes in the great fire that burns the world. There is no other possibility."

After saying this, a cold smile appeared on Solomon's face.

"Of course, summoning such a monster, maybe before I burn you all, you will have already been completely destroyed."

"Hope you can hold on until the end and witness the final demise."

"Haha... Hahahaha...!"

Leaving behind these words, Solomon's figure disappeared into a distorted vortex behind him.

The instigator of the Incineration of Humanity, confronted and forced back by Altera, vanished right there.

However, the parting words left by Solomon left all the assembled Servants staring at the direction where Solomon had departed, then looking back at Altera, once again falling into silence.

Rozen also looked at Altera.

Coincidentally, Altera turned around and gazed at Rozen.

The ruby-like eyes still lacked the previous gentleness, kindness, and calm intelligence, only revealing a cold and ruthless demeanor.

Recalling Solomon's words, Rozen's eyes flickered incessantly, silent in response.

The battle ended here.

In a way that left no one satisfied, the oppressive heaviness and silence became the ultimate spoils of war.
