-879- King against King

For the events happening on the ground, the Servants aboard the Argonauts in mid-air naturally observed everything.

"What... what's going on...!?"

Jason, manipulating the ship with astonishing skill to evade the incoming arrow rain, displayed an anxious expression while observing the intense battle unfolding on the ground.

"It's one thing for Arjuna to come out and cause trouble, we expected that, but what's with that Servant who looks exactly like Rama...!?"

On the Argonauts, everyone clearly saw the fierce confrontation between Rama and Sita. It wasn't much of a battle; Sita, with an evil smile, continuously shot arrows at Rama, who was clearly struggling, defending against the onslaught, unable to counterattack. In this situation, Rama's injuries seemed to have a significant impact, causing him to bleed profusely with each move.

As a result, Rama found himself at a disadvantage, suppressed by Sita. This had significant consequences.

While Karna and Arjuna engaged in an intense battle, creating a tumultuous scene with flames and thunder erupting from one corner of the battlefield, the ground shook violently, and the storm mixed with dust made that area a death zone where no one could approach.

Similarly, Hercules was entangled in a battle with Fionn and Diarmuid, roaring like a rampaging war chariot, charging relentlessly, while the two spear-wielding Servants moved around him, attacking with flowing spear techniques and two cursed lights, creating a clash of forces that continuously shook the air.

In this war, Mash, Scáthach, Karna, Rama, and Hercules, the five main frontline Servants, each possessed top-tier combat abilities.

It was crucial for them to break through the enemy lines with their powerful assaults. Otherwise, despite the comparable strengths of both armies, with dragon tooth warriors and Celtic warriors numbering in the millions, individual strength favored the robust Celtic warriors.

In such circumstances, without overwhelming victories, it was impossible to gain the upper hand.

According to their plan, Karna would face Arjuna, Hercules would deal with the two spear-wielding knights, Rama would break through the enemy lines, and finally, after Scáthach dealt with Cú Chulainn and Medb, Rozen would lead Mash and Scáthach to support Rama.

However, Sita blocking Rama was an unexpected turn of events. Even Rozen and the others hadn't anticipated this. Instead of summoning new Servants using the Holy Grail, Medb had directly corrupted Sita, sending her to confront Rama.

This turned out to be an effective weapon against Rama. Consequently, the last front line was restrained, facing a potential crisis. This meant that without Servants leading the charge, the Celtic warriors were now turning their attention towards the dragon tooth warriors.

Jason watched helplessly as a large number of dragon tooth warriors were annihilated, the white bone sea gradually being swallowed by the densely packed human sea, his face revealing a touch of impatience.

Medea and Atalanta, one continuously firing magical bullets and the other relentlessly shooting arrows, both showed signs of concern.

"Send out all the dragon tooth warriors, Medea!"

Atalanta urgently voiced this command.

"They... they've all been sent out!"

While wielding her magic staff, Medea released a large number of dragon fangs, generating dragon tooth warriors.

Simultaneously, her breathing became slightly rapid. Generating millions of dragon tooth warriors and providing rear support through magical attacks, among all the Servants present, the one with the highest workload and responsibility was this princess who had been silently working.

If it weren't for the temporary contracts Rozen formed with almost all of his Servants, including Hercules, for victory in the war before setting out, Medea might have run out of magical energy by now.

By the way, the reason for using the term "almost" is that only Jason did not enter into a temporary contract with Rozen.

Whether Jason was unwilling or not, Rozen didn't see any advantage in forming a contract with him, considering it might waste magical energy rather than providing any significant benefits.

All the Servants received magical support from Rozen, somewhat increasing their combat abilities.

However, the current situation still presented disadvantages for their side.

"Tsk...!"

Atalanta couldn't help but click her tongue. If she weren't concerned about expending too much magical energy from Rozen who's going to deal with the mastermind on his side, she would have unleashed her Noble Phantasm continuously to tear apart the enemy formation.

"I wonder how Master is doing?"

Atalanta expressed her concern about this.

"It... It's starting!"

Medea, possibly employing some magic, exclaimed as if surprised.

...

At this moment, Rozen fully activated his Heaven's Eye, spreading it like an invisible network over the surrounding area.

All the terrain immediately entered Rozen's mind.

The positions of all the individuals were as clear as densely packed dots.

Rozen, with the help of the kinu cloak, swiftly flew while keeping his eyes closed, investigating all the surroundings.

Beside him, two Servants were providing protection.

"Boom!"

Mash charged like a war chariot, using the shield in front of her to knock all the Celtic soldiers on the road out of the way. Wherever she went, the path was forcibly cleared, and a spectacular sight unfolded with sand and dust rising behind her.

"Splush!"

Scáthach, fully concentrated, swung her magical spear. Both hands turned the magical spear into a whirlwind, piercing countless Celtic warriors and causing them to fall dead on the spot.

With these two Servants escorting him, Rozen could move smoothly without hindrance, heading towards his target.

Toward the source of that delightful yet high-pitched laughter.

"Hehehe...! Hahaha...!"

Amidst such exuberant laughter, a girl with a whip sat on a chariot pulled by two armored aurochs, galloping freely on the battlefield.

The two aurochs kept pulling the chariot, repeatedly charging on the battlefield. Not only did they shatter the dragon tooth warriors one by one, but they also smashed rocks and the ground, creating a chaotic dust-filled atmosphere.

The girl seems extremely pleased and joyful about the scene, continuously laughing in a coquettish manner.

"So that's Queen Medb?"

Mash tensed her nerves.

"As reckless as ever."

Scáthach snorted.

As for Rozen...

"So that's Queen Medb..."

Rozen stared at the Queen who laughed loudly, squinting his eyes.

Magical energy began to emanate from him.
