Fate/Type: I Am the Assassin!

"Whoosh!"

Jason threw the Holy Grail towards the Ark of the Covenant. If these two things touched, God knew what would happen. Perhaps it would be a disaster, perhaps destruction, but it certainly wouldn't be anything good.

Mo Shuying disliked trouble, so he preferred to eliminate or stop it beforehand.

Just then, his Flash cooldown ended. The Mo family's once-every-five-minutes Flash was used, catching the Holy Grail just as it was about to touch the Ark of the Covenant.

"You're already in this state, so stop trying to cause trouble."

Mo Shuying held the Holy Grail and spoke. As soon as his voice fell, a powerful murderous intent erupted from the seawater below!

"Roar!"

Heracles burst out of the sea, swinging a stone axe at Mo Shuying. Heracles had been forced into the sea by the Demon God Pillar earlier. He only managed to escape once the Demon God Pillar disappeared, but now, with a new Command Seal, he had fallen into complete madness!

"Clang!!"

Mo Shuying raised his sword to block Heracles's attack. Mo Shuying's strength was no joke either. The axe and sword collided, and both of them reeled backward.

"Roar!"

Heracles landed on the remaining chunks of flesh, and as he did, he stepped on Jason's arm with a crisp snap, breaking it.

"Ahhhhhh! You! What are you doing, you stupid pig! Die!"

Jason, already in a frenzy, roared. His remaining body twisted, and the next second, he enveloped Heracles along with the Ark of the Covenant.

Jason could already feel his last bit of Mana and vitality being absorbed by the Ark of the Covenant. He was about to disappear. When a person reaches this point, they're capable of anything. He thought of how, as a Gorgon hero, he was the captain, but Heracles was more popular, stronger, and even became a god in the end.

This achievement, which Jason could never compare to, filled him with immense jealousy. He was just an old nobody who died when a shelf fell on him on the ship!

Driven by this resentment, Jason, in a moment of madness, decided to take Heracles with him. If he was going to die, they'd die together! Absorbed by the Ark of the Covenant together.

Mo Shuying watched from outside, a little speechless. This turn of events was slightly beyond his expectations.

He cautiously eyed Jason, who was now just a layer of withered skin wrapped around the Ark of the Covenant. A premonition arose in his heart, making him feel somewhat uneasy!

At the same time.

Ophiuchus released the recovered Circe, and Hector, who had emerged from the water, attacked the Golden Hind with bloodshot eyes.

They were controlled by Command Seals, launching a fierce assault on the Golden Hind. Mo Shuying glanced at them, feeling that the sense of crisis in his heart probably wasn't coming from these people.

If not from them, then it could only be—

"Tear!!"

The withered skin suddenly tore open, and then a large man, completely black, stepped out, standing on the sea.

"..."

Looking at this man, who bore a nine-tenths resemblance to Uncle B (Berserker) but was much leaner, Mo Shuying could feel that the person before him was the source of his sense of crisis.

The dark-skinned man held a lion skin in his hand. From its shape, it seemed to be wrapped around a square box, which was the Ark of the Covenant. This lion skin was actually able to resist the Ark of the Covenant's Mana absorption, clearly making it an extremely powerful item.

"Heracles?"

Mo Shuying asked.

The dark-skinned man looked at Mo Shuying, and after a few seconds, shook his head slightly.

"No, this body of mine is a semi-physical manifestation condensed from the evil power within the Ark of the Covenant. I am no longer the great hero Heracles. My name is... Alcides."

Alcides was actually Heracles's childhood name. The fact that he could communicate only heightened Mo Shuying's sense of crisis.

"Alcides? It seems the Ark of the Covenant has created quite a formidable fellow. So, are we friends or foes?"

Mo Shuying slowly descended to the surface of the sea. Water Walking allowed him to move on the water and increased his speed.

Alcides extended his free right hand and clenched it, seemingly feeling the power within his body. Although his physical body was nearly fifty centimeters shorter than when he was in the Berserker Class, his strength hadn't diminished much.

"The power of the Command Seal is still driving my body, so, I'm sorry, even though you feel very familiar to me, I'm here to destroy everyone."

Alcides said calmly, but Mo Shuying's heart tightened. This was the first time he had felt such an urgent threat.

"So, there's nothing to discuss. I'm familiar with Heracles in his Berserker Class, and we've crossed swords before. When we weren't going all out, it was a pretty even match. But who are you now?"

Mo Shuying gripped his sword with both hands, adopting a combat stance. It seemed this tough battle was unavoidable.

However, compared to a giant like the Demon God Pillar, fighting Alcides, who was similar in height and build to him, was actually more exciting.

Alcides hesitated for a moment, then spoke.

"Avenger, Alcides. Please enlighten me."

As soon as he finished speaking!

"Boom!"

Mo Shuying erupted with powerful Mana, swinging his sword at Alcides!

"Hong!"

Alcides also seemed capable of Water Walking. Barefoot like Mo Shuying, he sidestepped Mo Shuying's swing, but the Mana released had already cut through the surface of the sea!

Missing his attack was within Mo Shuying's expectations. The distance between them had closed. As a master swordsman like King Arthur, this was the distance where he could unleash his strongest sword techniques!

"Swish, swish, swish, swish, swish!"

A barrage of attacks rained down, but Alcides evaded them with the most subtle movements.

Mind's Eye (True) B

Alcides had now forsaken his Divinity and immortality, displaying only the skills he possessed as a human. As a fellow human, he was a monster capable of tearing apart other monsters with his bare hands!

"Impressive swordsmanship, but a pity."

Alcides sighed, and the next second, he kicked out, aiming for Mo Shuying's chin.

In Mo Shuying's eyes, the kick was so fast he could only see a blur, but he had already tilted his head back and retreated, dodging the blow.

Instinct A

This similar intuitive ability allowed Mo Shuying to evade his opponent's attacks and find their weaknesses.

Alcides's kick missed, and his body twisted 180 degrees. His other leg swung like a giant axe, a sweeping kick forcing Mo Shuying back.

This kick not only moved Mo Shuying out of his optimal attacking range but also bought Alcides some attacking distance.

Although Alcides was currently an Avenger, if he hadn't been corrupted by the Ark of the Covenant, his Class would have been Archer!

The bow was Alcides's most proficient weapon!

"Be careful of this arrow."

A giant wooden bow appeared in Alcides's hand. Since his left hand was still holding something, he lifted his left foot to support the bow, drew the string with his right hand, and a Mana arrow instantly materialized. Then!

*Bang!*

With a loud explosion, the Mana arrow reached Mo Shuying in the blink of an eye, too fast to react. Mo Shuying only had time to raise his sword to block. The next second!

*Boom!*
