Fate/Type: I Am the Assassin!

"Seriously, this is why I hate giant enemies. It's like scratching an itch!"

Mo Shuying gripped Durandal. He had just tried a shot of Indestructible Extreme Saint, which blew a massive hole in the Demon God Pillar, but it was just a hole.

Now, that enormous hole was healing at a visible rate. Clearly, only the Golden Sword could defeat it.

Switch!

Mo Shuying put away Durandal and switched to the Arthur Card, his aura surging! A phantom of a massive red dragon flashed across Mo Shuying's body!

After slaying a red dragon using the Arthur Card, Arthur (limited to this card) gained new powers as he possessed the Red Dragon Bloodline.

Dragon Slayer A

Greatly increases attack and defense against dragon-type enemies.

(A simple but very practical skill.)

Red Dragon Physique A++

Activates the dragon's bloodline within the body using dragon blood, strengthening all personal abilities, increasing magic resistance, increasing magic capacity, increasing magic output, and increasing recovery power.

These two skills further boosted Arthur's power.

Mo Shuying underwent a magnificent transformation, a Golden Sword glowing brilliantly in his hand.

"Demon God Pillar! Destroyer of worlds! Accept the judgment of starlight!"

Mo Shuying raised the Golden Sword, ready to release its restriction and annihilate the Demon God Pillar in one blow, but...

"..."

No reaction.

The Golden Sword was still glowing, but the "scabbard" hadn't shattered; it was just in its normal state.

"Hey, big guy, what's wrong?"

Mo Shuying looked puzzled. Why was it failing him at such a crucial moment?

*BOOM!*

As he wondered, a black light enveloped Mo Shuying. Instantly, golden light erupted, and Mo Shuying cleaved through the black light, emerging with a frown.

This Golden Sword was a sword of salvation. It wouldn't appear unless there was a world-ending threat. But...

Last time he saw a Demon God Pillar, this Golden Sword was more eager than anyone. Why was it slacking off now?

"Hey! Big guy! Don't you think this world has treated you terribly? The whole world is against you! Shouldn't you get angry and destroy it or something?!"

Mo Shuying launched into mentor mode, trying to guide the Demon God Pillar onto the "right path." However, the Demon God Pillar was not one to listen to advice; it would get angry with anyone who tried to persuade it!

"ROAR!"

A black shadow blotted out the sky, approaching. Mo Shuying looked up; it was a tentacle of the Demon God Pillar.

A tentacle covered in eyes slammed down at Mo Shuying, casting a huge shadow.

"EX! CALIBUR!!"

Mo Shuying wouldn't tolerate it. The Holy Sword burst with powerful light! He raised his hand and unleashed a furious sword strike! The golden sword light slammed into the massive tentacle, and after a moment's delay, it was shattered. A huge tentacle was severed in the middle and plunged into the sea.

"ROAR!!"

After having a tentacle severed, the Demon God Pillar actually stopped attacking. Its countless eyes writhed, revealing a sense of terror.

Then, the Demon God Pillar actually began to retreat, its massive body moving in the opposite direction from Mo Shuying, like mountains collapsing into the sea.

"...Trying to run?"

Mo Shuying truly hadn't expected this Demon God Pillar to choose to flee. How could such a cowardly thing be a Demon God Pillar?

But then, Mo Shuying realized: it was Jason!

Although this Demon God Pillar had suppressed Jason's mind, it seemed to also be influenced by Jason, becoming timid and incompetent.

Perhaps this was also why the Golden Sword wasn't activating—because it was too cowardly! The kind of cowardice that wouldn't appreciate an opportunity even if it was given one!

Medea, protected within the Demon God Pillar's body, was stunned. The Demon God Pillar was already starting to break free from her control.

Seeing the Demon God Pillar about to escape into the deep sea, Mo Shuying frowned and quickly gave chase. This Demon God Pillar still carried a Holy Grail! If it got away, who would he get the Holy Grail from?!

"Big guy! Leave the Holy Grail before you go!"

Mo Shuying shouted. The moment his voice fell!

*BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM!*

Suddenly, a volley of cannon fire erupted, and dozens of dragon flame cannonballs flew over, exploding upon hitting the Demon God Pillar.

Not far away, a large ship cut through the waves! A female pirate in red stood at the bow, pistol in hand, commanding her subordinates.

"Full load all cannons! All guns on the monster! Fire!"

*BOOM BOOM BOOM!*

The charging Golden Hind turned sideways, unleashing a volley from over a dozen cannons. Then, Drake commanded the Golden Hind to turn around, bombarding the target with another dozen rounds.

*RUMBLE!*

The cannon fire, enhanced by dragon flames, was quite powerful. It could peel off a layer of the Demon God Pillar's skin, but it couldn't inflict any further damage.

However, the ship was full of people. They were Servants, Heroic Spirits, individuals with Noble Phantasms, and most of them were Archers. What a coincidence, right? Their specialty was long-range attacks!

"It is our duty to exterminate monsters! By arrow, I report to Apollo and Artemis! Please grant me strength!"

Atalanta was the first to act. The arrow in her hand transformed into a white streak of light and shot forth, instantly forming a massive circle of light in the air!

Artemis, part of the group, covered her face, looking shy.

"Oh, my~ It's actually a bit embarrassing to be called out by a fan at such close range~ No, I must join in too! Go! Moon Goddess's Love Arrow!"

The goddess made her move, followed by Euryale.

"Though disgusting, I'll begrudgingly use my Noble Phantasm on you too! Noble Phantasm! Goddess's Gaze!"

David, Solomon's newly joined father, raised his staff (a shepherd's staff). Yes, this guy carried a staff but was actually an Archer. His Noble Phantasm was derived from the story in his biography where he struck down the giant Goliath with a stone. It was called...

"I'll make my move too~ No choice, go! Five Stones!"

They were literally five stones! David's stones had a guaranteed hit and stun effect. Although only the fifth shot had this effect, it was incredibly potent!

At this moment, Child Gil was still slacking off. He knew that the Noble Phantasms currently being used by their group could, at best, delay the Demon God Pillar's retreat. Defeating it was almost impossible.

To eliminate the Demon God Pillar, either Mo Shuying's Golden Sword had to be unleashed, or Ea (Sword of Rupture) had to be combined. That might be able to resolve the Demon God Pillar.

But combining Ea (Sword of Rupture) required Mo Shuying or Child Gil to make a sacrifice. Either Child Gil would disappear to fuse with the card, or Mo Shuying would give up the card for Child Gil to fuse with. Otherwise, this power would always be weakened.

Besides these two methods, there was actually one more.

When Child Gil saw all the Noble Phantasms land on the Demon God Pillar, only delaying it for two seconds, he couldn't help but speak.

"It's useless. Ordinary Noble Phantasms can't inflict fatal damage on that monster. We need a One-Hit Kill amount of energy."

Everyone looked at Child Gil, who then turned to look at David.

"Uh, why are you looking at me?"

David was startled, feeling a sudden pang of unease.

Child Gil approached David and said seriously,

"The Ark of the Covenant. Anyone but you who touches the Ark of the Covenant will instantly have their magical energy drained and die. If you touch that monster with the Ark of the Covenant, even the Demon God Pillar will be drained dry and die. As soon as the Demon God Pillar dies, we win."

Child Gil's tone was assertive. David listened, opened his mouth, and his expression showed some difficulty.
