"Never thought being summoned would drop straight into a spectacle like this. You really are a Master who never lets get bored, you bastard, Kirschtaria."
Caenis stared at ORT's moving form. Primal fear and the exhilaration of facing a powerful enemy mingled in her blood.
"A battle that's basically suicide… what a hassle."
The older of the Dioscuri complained, yet he was the first to rush forward, his sister following right behind him.
Among the Servants who had appeared, most had once fought alongside the Crypters.
However, a few ca from Proper Human History rather than the Lostbelts. The Dioscuri charging at the front were one such example.
"Hear this, heroes currently manifest in this world. The enemy before you is a threat from the cosmos capable of devouring planets. Its na is ORT."
Shiomi's voice echoed across the battlefield.
"If you are defeated, you will not simply retreat. ORT will consu you, preventing you from manifesting again… unless we ultimately defeat it."
"So it's a one-way battle, then."
Sigurd ran across the deck with Brynhildr beside him.
The two of them leapt down from the deck together and rushed straight toward ORT.
"But if we abandon the fight now and lose in the end, then the planet and Proper Human History will both disappear," Brynhildr said. "Therefore, Sigurd."
"I understand, my love."
"That's the situation. You get it now, Aśvatthāman," Peperoncino said.
"Anyway, the old man and Karna are waiting in the Third Netherworld, right?"
Aśvatthāman declared arrogantly.
"Watch hold this monster back so they never even get the chance to show up!"
With a loud battle cry, he sprinted forward, catching up with the Servants who had already begun fighting.
"Xiang Wang, I will also—"
Hinako Akuta intended to join the battle herself.
But Lanling Wang stopped her.
"You must not, Master. Leave this to us, the shadows of humanity's order. You still have a long road ahead."
"Exactly," Xiang Yu said. "Live on with the companions you trust and witness the victory of this battle. That is my only wish for you, my wife."
"Then I'll move out. Even as a Caster, I can't hit ORT from that far away."
Anastasia nodded to Kadoc.
Kadoc clenched his fist and entrusted the mana of his Command Spell to her.
The Lostbelt's princess then followed Xiang Yu and Lanling Wang into the battlefield.
"Too few! With just this many Servants, how could we possibly stop ORT?"
Forced to remain on the deck at Xiang Yu's insistence, Hinako Akuta turned to the others.
The first round of Heroic Spirit summoning had already ended.
The Crypters were all exceptional. Even relying solely on their own mana, they could still support several more summonings.
Not to ntion the magical support provided by Storm Border.
The combat strength before them was nothing more than a drop in the ocean.
"They've arrived."
Artoria's voice suddenly rang out.
Twelve streaks of light cut across the sky. The Knights of the Round Table of King Arthur descended like teors, charging fearlessly toward ORT.
[Attention all Servants fighting on the front lines. This vessel will deploy the Leyline Blocking Armant and begin full fire coverage. Temporarily disengage from ORT and wait until the first wave of attacks is complete.]
Storm Border's broadcast suddenly echoed across the battlefield.
However, the announcent did not truly deter the Servants.
They simply avoided the trajectory of the artillery as the Leyline Blocking Armant fired, then continued their relentless assault on ORT.
The alien lifeform, made of an unknown substance that felt both soft and rigid, gave a bizarre sensation when struck.
The only saving grace was that their attacks could still deal effective damage.
At the sa ti, any attack from ORT that landed would inflict irreversible and irreparable harm. Once fatally wounded, they would transform into crystal-like matter and be absorbed by ORT.
"Even with firepower at this level, it still isn't enough," Morgan murmured.
The Leyline Blocking Armant was not lacking in power due to the operator.
Rather, ORT itself was simply too strong. Even that overwhelming barrage felt like scratching through a shoe, leaving only wounds that could easily regenerate.
"ORT's mana output is still rising…" Shiomi said quietly.
With every step the massive alien spider took, their Reality Marble suffered backlash and gradually weakened.
Normally, a Reality Marble of this scale would trouble even a Grand Servant manifesting within it with its extre cold.
But ORT had completely avoided the possibility of being frozen at the very source.
"You call that fire coverage?"
An arrogant voice suddenly rang out.
Morgan, maintaining the Reality Marble in the sky, looked up in surprise.
Countless golden gates opened across the heavens. From within them, top-class Noble Phantasms shot forth, racing toward ORT.
"Gilgash."
Shiomi looked up in astonishnt.
"Consider it repaynt for the favor you left behind in Uruk."
Gilgash explained calmly from atop the Vimana.
This was not the one beside Hakuno Kishinami, but another Gilgash who had manifested here.
Morgan glanced toward the deck.
It was probably the result of Sakura and the others performing the second round of summoning.
Standing beside Gilgash on the Vimana was Enkidu.
Drawing two of the best possible Servants right at the start was certainly encouraging.
Enkidu chuckled softly.
"Please forgive Gil's attitude. That is simply his style."
"Hmph."
Gilgash clearly did not care.
"But still, this hunt is far more difficult than hunting the Bull of Heaven."
Enkidu's voice carried a faint excitent.
"Gil, what do you think our chances of victory are?"
"Since this king has taken the field himself, defeat is impossible."
Gilgash drew Ea from the treasury.
"Well then, Unity God. Can your Reality Marble withstand the Noble Phantasms of this king and my friend?"
Morgan smiled faintly.
"You only need to concern yourselves with ORT. Maintaining the Reality Marble is a matter for my husband and ."
"Then we can fight without worry."
Enkidu rose from the Vimana.
Gilgash followed beside him.
"Before the King! Halt your steps, ORT!"
He shouted as he raised Ea.
"Narrate the origin. When heaven and earth were first split apart, even the void offered praise. With my sword of separation, I tear the world asunder. The star-encircling mortar, the hell of the heavens, marks the end of the night before creation."
"What awakens is the breath of the planet. I will advance alongside humanity. Therefore—"
Enuma Elish - The Star of Creation that Split Heaven and Earth!
Enuma Elish - O' Humans, Let Us Restrain the Gods!
The Hero King and his closest friend unleashed their Noble Phantasms together.
The mont Morgan heard the True Nas of those Noble Phantasms, she knew Shiomi could no longer hold back.
"While ORT hasn't fully activated yet, we still have so room to act…"
The Unity God summoned Marduk's Axe.
And brought it crashing down toward ORT.
