"It's finally here, the Fourth Holy Grail War Special Grand Prix."
"We are broadcasting this sonic battle on the ground from a special runway outside of Fuyuki City."
"I'm the mysterious magician in charge of live broadcasts and commentary, ahem, Kamiya... no, Saiki Kusuo."
Under the night, Shinji announced with a voice that seemed to chew Xuanmai and could not be stopped. Because he could not reveal his real name, he directly borrowed the name of the strongest among the isotopes in the different world.
"Well, let's take a look at the players waiting for the game to start."
"First is Archer, who is in the first position. His car is KAWASAKIZZR—"
"No, it's the Golden Babylon." Archer, who was doing the final adjustments to the locomotive, glared at Shinji in dissatisfaction.
The Golden Babylon, as its name suggests, is shining with gold. After he acquired the ownership of the KAWASAKIZZR1100, he actually took out an unknown prop from the King's Treasure and turned the motorcycle's shell into gold.
For Gilgamesh, gold is taste, gold is style, and gold is the most noble color in the world.
"Sorry, let me correct you. It's the Golden Babylon." Shinji looked at the motorcycle that had changed from mysterious and low-key to gorgeous and high-profile, and he suppressed the urge to complain and continued to explain.
"Hmph, victory belongs to me." Archer stepped on the accelerator and declared victory.
"Then there is Rider in the second position. His mount is also his Noble Phantasm, a chariot pulled by two divine bulls - the Divine Wheel."
"Is this the modern popular racing car? I like it."
Rider's laughter easily drowned out Shinji's voice.
"Can't lose, Bull!"
"Moo~~~~~~" The two mythical beasts related to the god Zeus howled towards the sky, and their moving front hooves flashed dazzling lightning, which frightened Waver, who was riding in the chariot with Rider.
"Ri... Rider, are you sure everything is alright?"
"Don't worry, kid." Rider patted Waver's weak shoulder with his large palm, "I am a Rider with a riding rank of A+. There is no way I can lose to Archer and Assassin."
"Really... is it okay?" Weber lowered his head and muttered.
"Finally, we have Assassin in position three. Her bike is a Honda CBR600F2. No, it's the Gáe Bolative (The Deadly Flying)."
"Master, when did you change your name?" Scathach raised her head and asked her Master after quietly waiting for the game to begin.
"I just changed it. Look, Archer's Golden Babylon and Rider's God Wheel both sound so cool. We can't lose momentum, so I had an idea. If you have any objections, you can change it again."
"... ... "After three months of getting along, Scathach has become accustomed to Shinji's jumping thoughts, and just responded calmly, "Forget it, let's use this name, and hurry up and get on the bus."
"good."
Shinji quickly ran to the third position, turned over and sat behind Scathach. With his left hand, Scathach had no fat and a very elastic waist. With his right hand, he kept holding the microphone and shouted.
"Alright, the contestants are all in position. Now I declare that the Fourth Holy Grail War Special Grand Prix is about to begin. Who will be the winning Servant and Master? Countdown—"
"5—"
"4—"
"3—"
"2—"
"1—"
"0—"
At the moment the countdown ended, three cars rushed through .asxs. at the same time.
The lightning caused by the galloping cows' hooves and the roar of the engine's intake and exhaust air rushed straight into the sky.
"As soon as the game started, the competition was fierce, and the players in each group were fighting hard against each other."
"Archer's Golden Babylon maintained its lead with a slight advantage. The car is equipped with a 1052cc inline four-cylinder DOHC water-cooled engine with a maximum horsepower of 147. With the assistance of the RamAir intake ramjet, it has excellent acceleration performance and is truly the king of speed."
"Very good, let's finish them off in one go."
Archer, driving the Golden Babylon, was full of fighting spirit, and the two-wheeled beast seemed to respond with a wild roar. The surrounding scenery was moving backward faster and faster, and the whistling air current that made ordinary people unable to open their eyes was just a refreshing gust of wind for Archer, and he enjoyed this feeling.
"Archer is getting faster and faster, Rider."
"Don't worry, kid, the road is still long and there are bends ahead."
Rider, who was driving his chariot on the ground, was not in a hurry at all. After manifesting, he had already driven the chariot across the entire Fuyuki City and was very familiar with the road conditions.
"It's not easy to turn at Archer's speed."
Just as Rider said, the curve appeared. The national highway in the suburbs is built on the mountain, winding and complicated. If you only pursue speed, it is easy to get into an accident, which may cause a minor collision or even a serious car crash and death.
The wild steel beast let out a harsh whine, which was the sound of the tires rubbing against the ground violently. Archer suffered from his unfamiliarity with the road conditions and when he discovered the curve it was already a little late. He could only slow down and turn in a brute way.
"See, I was right." Rider gave Archer a provocative look and tightened the reins in his hands.
The divine bull, which had a connection with Zeus, and the King of Conquerors, who was known as the son of Zeus, were in tune with each other and made a loud noise.
The sound drowned out the roar of the engine, and the violent impact was enough to shake the earth.
It was like a thunderbolt that suddenly struck the battlefield. The blinding flash turned the darkness into day, and there was a deep roar that even drowned out the sound of the thunderbolt.
"AAAALaLaLaLaLaie!!"
The lightning did not fall from the sky to the earth, but swept across the surface horizontally. No... It looked like a flash of lightning, but it was actually a special phenomenon caused by the speeding of the Shenwei Wheel.
In the flickering lightning, a blue and white phantom shuttled through it. Although the lightning was dense and powerful, it did not cause any effect on the phantom.
It's Scathach's Death Shooter!
Although the performance of the sports motorcycle, formerly the Honda CBR600F2, is the weakest among the three groups, Scathach's driving skills and the experience of having made a round trip to Einzbern are enough to narrow the gap.
The graceful yet delicate turn, and the calmness in the face of lightning striking right in front of his eyes amazed Rider and also boosted Archer's fighting spirit.
"Run, Bull!"
"Let's get on board the Golden Babylon!"
At the first bend, we were left behind by three groups of players.
"The ranking has changed. Archer, who was originally in the lead, has fallen to the last place. Rider, who was in second place, and Assassin, who was in third place, have taken their places. But this ranking is only temporary. The first difficult track of this competition is coming up, a series of turns. Will there be any new changes there?"
After saying this, Shinji finally stopped the dangerous posture of holding the microphone loosely. He put his arms around Scathach's waist and spoke softly.
"That's about it, Master."
"Well, it's time to show some real skills."
Scathach said, pulling down the visor of her helmet.
