Super-large fireworks, the light of the ancient nuclear bomb lit up the entire Shadow Kingdom.
"Hahahaha, this is an appearance befitting of this king."
The one who set off the fireworks, the Hero King Gilgamesh, laughed wildly in the sky while maneuvering the Sky Boat, moving at high speed towards the center and highest point of the Shadow Kingdom.
There is a castle there with the same style as the city walls and gates, but much older.
The dead gray color is darker than the sky, the heavy architectural style makes people feel depressed, and the towering castle tower declares the supremacy of its owner.
There is no doubt that the only "living person" and the only ruler of the Shadow Kingdom is here.
It was not difficult to judge from the open door and the unparalleled aura that she continued to release that she was already a little impatient.
Her Majesty, the Queen who has been granted eternity, has waited too long for such a day.
Shinji straightened his clothes, jumped off the bow, and walked through the gate with the five great heroes, into the castle, facing Scathach on the throne, the only bright color in the dark kingdom.
She was still the same, no different from when I first met her fifteen years ago or five years ago.
Of course, the difference here is only in appearance and body shape. The aura and magic power that can't be seen but can be felt are much stronger than when they were servants. It's not an exaggeration to say that it's the difference between rivers and seas and streams.
Siegfried gripped the hilt of his sword.
Achilles tensed.
Karna frowned slightly.
Hercules was fully armed.
Even the Hero King Gilgamesh put away his pride.
Yes, this is the true strength and oppression of the ruler of the Shadow Kingdom!
It's not a degraded clone of a Servant, nor is it a Heroic Spirit that solidified after death!
She is the eternal queen who has survived from the Age of Gods to the present day, immortal and ageless!
"It's even more exaggerated than I remembered. It seems I'm not the only one who has grown over the years."
Shinji sighed softly. He was the only one who looked calm among all the others, because he knew her better than anyone else and was more prepared than any other challenger.
The children fifteen years ago, the teenagers five years ago, and the young men today are stepping forward.
"I finally see you, the real you, Master."
"I'm really glad you're here, my last and most outstanding disciple."
The red and blue eyes met, just like before, he was below and she was above.
"I have been waiting for you, waiting for you to fulfill my wish and give me a real death."
"Yes, I will. That's why I'm here. But before that, let me make up my disciple's etiquette."
Shinji said this, kneeling on his knees and kowtowed three times respectfully.
Although he had kowtowed once fifteen years ago, that was to the servant, not to the master himself. At that time, he had made up his mind that if he had the chance, he would definitely make up for this true apprenticeship ceremony.
"Thank you, Master. I appreciate your careful teaching and support along the way. Without you, I would not be where I am today."
Scathach accepted it calmly and said with a smile: "I care more about practical actions than words of gratitude."
"I know."
Shinji stood up, and the respect he showed as a disciple instantly faded away. Instead, he showed the spirit and demeanor that befitted a magician, a super-powerful being standing at the top of the planet.
"So, Master, I'm sorry, I'm going to be a traitor and betray my teacher and ancestors!"
"I couldn't ask for more!"
Scathach smiled, with both elegance and boldness.
Around the throne, vermilion weapons appeared out of thin air, including swords, knives, bows, spears, whips and staffs.
All the weapons she had used in her life were here, arranged in formation.
This is a display of the highest standard and a symbol of her all-out effort.
She had never been so serious in the nearly two thousand years since the Shadow Kingdom was closed.
"Come on, let's go together. I hope you can bring me enough surprises."
"Together?" Achilles raised his eyebrows involuntarily, "Hey, hey, aren't you looking down on me? This lady - no, you are not old enough to be called a lady, but an old - um~~"
Before he could finish his words, Achilles groaned and flew backwards, not stopping until he hit the wall of the castle.
"What do you want to say? Why don't you say anything? It's not good to speak incoherently."
Scathach still sat on the throne, seemingly without moving a finger.
"you!"
Achilles leaned his hands on the wall to steady himself, and just as he opened his mouth, he found something flowing into his mouth.
I reached out and touched it, and found it was blood, blood flowing from the nose.
"—I'm hurt? How is that possible? You are not a god, and you have no divinity."
"I am not a god, nor do I have divinity, but I have killed gods."
Scathach's meaning is very simple. I can even kill gods, so what can you, a "brave immortal flower" based on divinity, do
"Like this."
The primordial rune reappeared, surrounding Achilles.
This time, it was not a surprise attack. Achilles was already prepared. He used the "Comet Running Method", a symbol of the fastest speed of mankind, and escaped from the encirclement of the runes in an instant.
Even so, he still couldn't escape unscathed. There were many traces of freezing on the Vulcan Armor, which even spread to the inside of the armor.
Seeing this scene, Hercules and others remembered that Scathach was not only a legendary warrior, but also a supreme magician.
During the Holy Grail War, she was restricted by her job and was unable to display her magic skills, but her true self did not have this limitation.
Be it magic or martial arts, she can use them however she wants. Mix them together to make a cocktail, dazzle with holy light in one hand and hit people with a hammer in the other.
Her Majesty the Queen, who had demonstrated her strength through a powerful attack, finally stood up and casually grasped a Deaththorn Bow. The primordial runes automatically gathered to create arrows.
"I'll say it again, come at me together, one on one, you are no match for me!"
"Pfft! I don't want to admit it, but it seems to be the case."
Achilles curled his lips, holding his gun and standing shoulder to shoulder with Siegfried. He was proud and irritable, but that didn't mean he was stupid.
Siegfried held his sword horizontally in a defensive posture.
Karna and Hercules behind him raised their bows at the same time, shooting with the left and with the right, killing hundreds of heads. These were the famous skills of the two legendary archers.
Finally, Gilgamesh, the most worrying guy, no longer cares about his face and ignores reality this time.
"If you dare to hold me back, I will kill you first!"
Although the words were still not very pleasant to the ear, he did not reject the proposal of joining forces.
The treasury opened, and the treasures appeared in the sky, with the "Destiny Tablet" in the left hand and the Babylonian Battle Axe in the right hand.
Now, he is no longer the willful tyrant in his youth, but a wise king who created the glory of Babylonia after experiencing two transformations of Enkidu and the elixir of immortality.
Even though the Mesopotamian civilization has long been extinct, the name of the Hero King is still praised by all eternity.
PS: No matter how much a ceiling-level Servant is strengthened, it is still not as good as the original body. For example, Phineas's Dragon Heart, Dai Mao's Dragon Factor, Gilgamesh's powerful magic of seven people - these are things that the Servant's body cannot reproduce.
PS2: If they can be compared, it would be easy to beat the Master. If these five characters join forces, except for the seventh-order giant god and UO, who are planet-cleansing level wall-hangers, all others will be beaten to the ground.
PS3: The book friends are really talented. I didn't dare to use the original text of the ancient nuclear bomb because the Indian mythology was exaggerated. I didn't expect that the book friends said that it was posted in the previous chapter. If you are interested, you can go and have a look.
PS4: One update today.
