"Hahahahaha!"
The heart that had sprouted an eye let out a terrifying laugh. Cursed Arm Hassan was caught off guard and blasted through the cheek, but he didn't even whimper. His eyes icy, he gripped the heart with his demonic hand and crushed it.
"Heh."
Agravain, whose heart had just been crushed, showed no unusual expression, as if it wasn't his heart that had been ripped out.
"Kill!"
With a wave of Agravain's hand, the continuously appearing Mad Enhancement Knights began to attack Karna and Assassin.
"Hmph! Mere fodder!"
Karna thrust his Lancer through a Mad Enhancement Knight. Flames erupted inside the Mad Enhancement Knight's body, causing it to convulse and emit black smoke.
But Karna frowned, because the sensation was off!
Sure enough, the Mad Enhancement Knight, which had lowered its head, suddenly looked up! Its eyes had transformed into the same eyes that were on the heart earlier! Evil! Violent!
*Boom!*
Two Eye Beams shot towards Karna, but were blocked by his golden shield.
"Pfft!"
Karna raised his hand, pulverizing the Mad Enhancement Knight, but the pieces of flesh that fell to the ground still writhed! They seemed to be trying to reassemble themselves.
"Brahma! Cover the Earth!"
Karna plunged his golden Lancer into the ground. His right eye, representing Brahma, glowed with golden fire! A super Eye Beam instantly blasted forth!
*Boom!!*
The people in the city could see the beam of light shooting from the main city tower, blazing like the sun, illuminating the night sky.
Inside the passage, the numerous Mad Enhancement Knights had vanished, leaving only a black sphere standing there.
Ominous Mana coiled around the black sphere, blocking Karna's power. This sensation reminded Karna of a certain creature.
"Demon God Pillar!"
Yes, a Demon God Pillar!
As soon as Karna spoke, the black light dissipated, revealing layers upon layers of Mad Enhancement Knight corpses pressed together inside.
Agravain stood at the very center, well protected by all the Mad Enhancement Knights. His expression had become twisted, and his eyes widened as he laughed maniacally!
"Hahahahaha! Is this all you've got? How pathetic! You think you can see His Majesty the Lion King like this?! Dream on! None of you will get past! Come!"
Agravain roared, and his body suddenly began to swell. In an instant, a Demon God Pillar burst through the outer wall of the main city, twisting and coiling atop it!
"Gurgle gurgle!"
Sounds like bursting bubbles echoed as large quantities of black liquid flowed out from the Demon God Pillar's body, forming into Mad Enhancement Knights.
Not only that.
"Ah!!"
Shadow Servants resembling Knights of the Round Table such as Gawain, Tristan, and Gareth also appeared.
These knights, who had initially opposed the Lion King and were then killed, were now replicated as Shadow Servants to join the battle to protect the Lion King. It was quite ironic.
Karna and the others were forced back. Although they couldn't use their Noble Phantasms, there were still a few troublesome existences among these Round Table Shadow Servants.
"What in the world is this?!"
Lancelot had also arrived, and the first thing he saw was Agravain, transformed into a Demon God Pillar, along with the madly charging Shadow Servants and Mad Enhancement Knights.
"Finish them quickly. Just contain the Demon God Pillar. I need to break through. My mission is to assist King Arthur."
Flames surged in Karna's hand. After saying this to Lancelot and the other Assassins, he flew towards the window.
*Boom!*
The wall of the Holy City's main fortress was blasted open again, and the Little Sun flew towards the top of the tower, flames spewing from his shoulders!
"Don't even think about getting close!"
What greeted Karna were numerous tentacles and surging black smoke. The eyes on the Demon God Pillar glowed, charging up one by one!
"You, alone! You think you can stop me?!"
The flames on Karna's shoulders instantly flared! He transformed into a golden streak of light, evading all the strangling tentacles and the black smoke, followed by a continuous barrage of massive light beams!
*Boom boom boom boom boom boom!*
A continuous stream of powerful Mana beams poured out. Karna dodged with all his might, evading all the previous ones, but he wasn't quick enough for the last one and was hit head-on!
"Ah!!"
Karna roared, two golden shields and his golden Lancer held before him. He wasn't significantly harmed, but the impact sent him crashing towards the ground!
*Boom!!*
The light column struck the ground, causing a terrifying explosion. A large number of Holy City buildings were destroyed, but at that moment, no one cared about that anymore.
"Hahahahaha!"
Agravain's voice grew more muffled, tentacles extending upwards from his body, ceaselessly groping as if searching for something in the air.
*BOOM!*
Karna shot out like a rocket again, ascending from the ground directly towards the Demon God Pillar! He had realized that without defeating this Demon God Pillar, reaching Artoria to assist her would be incredibly difficult!
Meanwhile.
*BANG! BOOM!!*
Artoria was still riding Lamrei up the tower.
Lamrei ascended the spiral staircase with incredible speed, with Karna and the Demon God Pillar still battling on their right.
They were almost at the top of the tower, and everything here was beginning to feel familiar. The Holy Lance appeared in Artoria's hand. With a raise of her arm, two spiraling beams of light shot out, hitting two bricks on either side of the wall. Instantly!
The knight statues that were about to activate on both sides retracted.
*BOOM!*
With the last guardian dealt with, Lamrei, enveloped in powerful Mana, crashed through the large door. Artoria, riding Lamrei, arrived at this platform. Before her lay a throne, and upon the throne sat someone identical to her.
The Lion King remained seated on the throne, her gaze calmly observing everything. However, upon closer inspection, one could see the Lion King's Mana surging. With every breath, immense energy was accumulating, ready to unleash a terrifying strike at any moment.
"We finally meet, my other self."
Artoria, riding Lamrei, stepped forward, her voice calm.
The Lion King looked at Artoria, then slowly rose. A flash of white light appeared beside her, and a white horse materialized.
"Stallion..."
Artoria recognized the white horse; it was her former warhorse, Dun Stallion, who had accompanied her through countless battles.
Whinny~!
The white horse was also stunned upon appearing. How are there two masters? Who should it be ridden by? Does this count as cheating?! Wait! Who's that black horse?!
Neigh!
Lamrei also snorted upon seeing the white horse, a disdainful snort. In that moment, sparks flew as the gazes of the two magnificent steeds collided, brimming with fighting spirit.
"You are merely a replicated clone. I now offer you a chance: kneel before me, and I can fuse you, and together we shall step into eternity."
The Lion King declared, but she received no response from Artoria. Instead, Artoria raised the Holy Lance, aimed it at the Lion King, and spoke.
"Holy Lance, pull anchor!"
*WHOOSH!*
Countless beams of light erupted from the tip and tail of the Holy Lance in Artoria's hand, spreading like an expanding circuit. The power of the Holy Lance continuously increased.
"It seems there's nothing more to discuss. Holy Lance, pull anchor!"
The Lion King said coldly, a pure white spear appearing in her hand. With a cry of "pull anchor!", a large amount of branch-like energy beams spread out!
