Chapter 86

"Sealing my treasure temporarily, are you so pleased with yourself?" The Heroic King raised the乖离剑 (Ea) in his right hand to chest level. "As long as my greatest treasure is still in my hands, no matter how many of you come at me, you will never be able to shake me. And at this distance, do you think you can stop me from using my Noble Phantasm?"

After the inherent boundary was destroyed, Xunxin and the others appeared in the real world with slight deviations from their original positions when they had surrounded Gilgamesh. The distance of several dozen meters might not be enough for Gilgamesh to fully release the乖离剑 (Ea), but it was more than enough to release a higher level of its power.

"乖离剑 Ea..."

A sudden gunshot forced the Heroic King to quickly move from his position. The shells fired from the machine gun, now a Noble Phantasm, were not something that could be blocked with cold weapons. The high-explosive rounds detonated under the influence of the black and red magical energy, and the shrapnel had lethal power. If the Heroic King used the乖离剑 (Ea) to block, the shrapnel alone could send him back to the Hall of Heroes, as he was not protected by armor. The unexpected attack forced the Heroic King, who had lost his treasure, to rely on his A-rank agility to dodge Lancelot's shells. Being forced to this extent by a mindless Berserker was a humiliation for the Heroic King, like being thrown into a cesspool.

"Enough, you bastard, die, die, die!" For Xunxin, the Heroic King acknowledged his strength and considered him a worthy opponent; for the Conqueror King, the path of kingship earned his admiration and recognition; for the Knight King, her noble spirit made the Heroic King nostalgic, reminding him of a former friend. But what was Berserker? Just a mindless monster. In terms of power, Berserker wouldn't last a minute against the Heroic King's treasure at full power. In terms of spirit, did a berserker have a spirit? Now, the Heroic King was being insulted by a berserker he despised, using modern weapons, and only after the Heroic King's treasure was sealed by the combined efforts of four other Servants. If it were just Berserker, the Heroic King might have praised his martial prowess. But now, the Berserker was taking advantage of the situation, using a sneak attack to try to harm the supreme king. Gilgamesh's anger was uncontrollable.

Seeing the Heroic King's actions, Xunxin and the others tried to interrupt his release. Although Berserker was controlled by both Yannight and the Command Spells, he was still mindless. The effects of the Command Spells had weakened significantly after the prolonged battle. When three Servants and one human tried to interrupt the Heroic King's release, a barrage of shells forced Xunxin and the others to retreat. Even though Yannight immediately used another Command Spell to regain control of Berserker, the Heroic King had already created enough distance.

Placing the乖离剑 (Ea) into the ground, the Heroic King crossed his arms, looking confident. Berserker roared and took a single soldier missile from his back, aiming it at the Heroic King. The missile, equipped with tracking capabilities, was about to hit its target when a terrifying red magical energy storm formed a spatial rift around the Heroic King, easily deflecting the heat and shrapnel from the explosion. The Knight King swung her invisible sword at the Heroic King, creating sparks on the red storm, but she was thrown back by the force.

"This sword has seen the world before it was divided, known as hell, the state of the planet in its infancy. Now, you have the privilege to experience the moment of creation. Hahahaha!!!" The red magical energy storm blocked Xunxin and the others' view, and a red tornado spanning the heavens and earth completely obscured the Heroic King. When the dust settled, the Heroic King was nowhere to be seen.

"Could it be...?" Xunxin looked up, and the once-quiet night sky had changed dramatically. Three simulated nebulae, each covering half of Fuyuki City, were rotating in the sky, beautiful yet dangerous. Although they were ten thousand meters high, the magical energy emanating from the nebulae was like a Category 12 typhoon for those on the ground. On the outer edges of the nebulae, red magical energy runes formed chains around the three nebulae. The Heroic King floated in the air, his right hand gripping the rapidly spinning乖离剑 (Ea).

"Awaken, Ea, this is your grand stage. Behold the strike that separates the chaos. Heaven and Earth, the First Star of Creation!!!" A beam of light connected the three nebulae, which moved closer, expanded, and ultimately formed a white, blazing planet in the sky with a radius of at least a thousand meters. The space trembled under the attack, and a giant energy sphere surrounded by red magical energy fell from the sky. If this strike hit Fuyuki City, it would be no less devastating than Xunxin's final arrival, perhaps even more so. This was the Heroic King Gilgamesh's trump card, a strike that simulated the creation of the world and the birth of a planet.

"EX-CALIBUR!!!" The Knight King poured almost all her remaining magical energy into the sword, Excalibur, and swung it, releasing a beam of light comparable to the one that destroyed the sea monster. But this time, the light of human chivalry faced the power of creation, like a moth to a flame. The golden light hit the energy sphere, merely slowing its descent.

"Oh dear, if this strike lands, we're all done for. Xunxin, do you have any way to stop this?" Facing the impending white light that would destroy everything, the Conqueror King was calm, even asking Xunxin.

"…It has come to this, Yakugetsu!" The silver long sword returned to Xunxin's hand, the blade gradually extending, and the space around it began to fragment. Magical energy, unmatched by all the Servants combined, surged from Xunxin, like a tidal wave impacting everything around him.

The bound weapon was released, barely reaching the level of a spatial ability—Area Spatial Shattering. This ability continuously shattered a certain area of space, creating a high-speed shattering speed that the world's repair mechanisms couldn't keep up with, leading to the connection of spatial and dimensional turbulence. The vast spatial energy generated by the shattering and the chaotic dimensional turbulence were bound by the strong gravitational pull of the repairing space, similar to a micro-black hole. Xunxin pointed Yakugetsu at the small sun formed by the乖离剑 (Ea), and a black sphere emerged from the tip of the blade, expanding to form a black ball about one-eighth the size of the white light sphere. When the white and black spheres met in the air, the white light sphere began to shrink, its energy being absorbed by the black sphere. It's important to note that the large amount of energy released by the spatial shattering requires even more energy to restore the space, and the world's own repair capabilities couldn't keep up with Xunxin's destruction. The white light sphere was the source of energy for the space's restoration. Now, the decisive factor was whether Xunxin could drain the energy of the Heaven and Earth, the First Star of Creation, within the one minute of the bound weapon's awakening.

"Ugh... cough, cough." Excessive magical energy surged through his body, rupturing his alveoli, and the blood that gushed out made Xunxin cough uncontrollably. His apprentice, Kenshin, immediately supported his master.

"Master!"

"Don't worry, I am Xunxin, and I will not stop my journey here, here, here!!!" The black sphere grew larger, absorbing matter and energy along with the dimensional space. When the white light sphere was about half absorbed, the black sphere, which had expanded to the size of the remaining light sphere, reached its limit. The energy held by the spatial collapse erupted, along with the Heaven and Earth, the First Star of Creation, forming a blinding light in the sky over Fuyuki City...
