Gram VS Balmung
On the castle of Yggdmillenia, the situation is like usual. Many Homunculus that create by the Magus Clan is doing their usual task: guarding the palace. Since the rumors of the Hero Faction is spreading, Darnic and Vlad decided to strengthen the security by deploying the Servants of Black to guard the fortress non-stop for 24 hours. For now, it is Chiron task to guard.
'I can't believe that King Vlad is wary of this mysterious faction. But this move is a smart move after all.' He thought while continuing his guarding task. Suddenly, he sees a purple mist is forming in front of the gate. From it, Georg, Fate Jeanne, and Siegfried emerge. Chiron immediately preparing his bow to shoot position.
"Who are you?" Ask the male Homunculus while pointing his spear at Georg.
"Identify yourself!" Order the female Homunculus who also pointing her spear.
Georg just raises his hand. "We come only to escort Ruler. We have no intention to fight." He said.
Fate Jeanne then walk forward while looking at Chiron. "I'm Servant Ruler. My true name is Jeanne d'Arc. Archer of Black, Chiron. I come to talk to the leader of the Black Faction. There is something important that I must tell him." She said.
Chiron then put down his bow. "So, you're the current Ruler of this Holy Grail War? Very well. I will tell him. But I can't promise that he will accept your request." Said Chiron. "Wait for a moment." He then turns into Astral Form, disappearing to tell Darnic and Vlad for Fate Jeanne's request.
On the villa that becomes base for Cao Cao and the others, Cao Cao himself currently training with Vali. Both of them activated their Balance Breaker.
Vali releasing a blast of white light at Cao Cao. The owner of the True Longinus just raises his hand forward, making one of the orbs move. The orb later creating a whirlwind that absorbing the blast.
"What's the matter Vali? I know that's not the best you can do." Said Cao Cao, mocking him. The whirlwinds suddenly from behind Vali and releasing the blast from earlier. Using his speed, Vali managed to avoid it. The blast leaves a medium hole on the ground. It was Mala Ratana and had the ability to send the enemy attacks to any direction that Cao Cao wants.
"That orbs of your surely a nuisance," Vali remarked Cao Cao Balance Breaker.
"And I can't afford to be hit by your Divide." Cao Cao countered. All of Cao Cao orbs later morphed into spears, then race toward Vali with amazing speed. The Hakuuryukou easily avoid all of it and tried to punch Cao Cao, who blocked with True Longinus. A shock-wave is created when both of them clash.
"So, you're grown stronger Vali." Praise Cao Cao.
"The same goes for you," Vali replied. Both of them later end the battle.
"I came here, and the battle is already over I see." Said Fionn who just came out from the villa. He appears to carry his spear. "I bored hearing the girls who talking for themselves inside the villa."
"So, you want to spar huh?" Ask Cao Cao.
"Are you forget? I want to do that once this Rogue Servant is taken care of." Said Fionn with a smirk. "By the way, when I go to the city this morning. I got this news. It was a terrible one indeed." He said while handing the paper to the one who resurrects him.
Cao Cao received the paper, then reading it. After a moment, he widens his eyes, then smiles. "I see, there is Rogue Servant who killed innocent people. And what interesting of it, it said the killing method is like those of Jack the Ripper."
"Who's Jack the Ripper?" Ask Vali.
"An alias of a famous serial killer who specialized in killing a woman on England during the 19th Century. The most known cases are the murders of five prostitute woman. To think a villain like this can be summoned as Servant." Cao Cao replied. "If my guess is true, it must be Assassin-class. But I doubt is the Rogue Servant that Zelretch-dono said. Its wish can't be salvation for a human."
"I see. That's like Mata Hari." Said Vali. "But this one must be truly a fighter."
"Yes. And it said that it was last seen close to here." Said Fionn. "As a knight, I can't accept this senseless murder."
"Such is the life of modern times, Fionn-dono." Said Cao Cao to Fionn. "I think we must take care of this Assassin first. It will only cause a nuisance for us and could bring danger to the girls. It Noble Phantasm must be linked with its anecdote of killing a girl. Even I can't allow this to happen. It will scratch my pride as hero descendant."
"I agree with you." Said Vali. "I think you should take Arthur with you. He maybe now sparring with St. George." He then walks to the villa.
"What's this talk about Assassin?" Ask Heracles who emerged from the forest. He also carries many large salmons for the food of his groups.
"I see you fishing Heracles." Cao Cao remarked.
"It's been a long time I did this. Mostly we only eat livestock. "Said Heracles. "Then, what's about the Assassin?"
"It appears that either Black or Red Faction had a rogue Assassin-class Servant of their own." Said, Cao Cao, while handing the newspaper to Heracles.
Heracles read it, then his eyes shock. "Jack the Ripper!? But how!? There is no account of how its look like."
"Maybe in this dimension, its appearance already recognizable." Cao Cao replied. "I plan to take Arthur and Fionn-dono to take care of it. Heracles, you help Vali, d'Eon-dono and Georgios-dono guard the girls."
"Okay then. And, make sure you came back. Cause the fish will go smelly if not cooked now." Said Heracles.
Cao Cao nodded. "I'll leave the safety of Jeanne and the others to you." Said Cao Cao. He then turns toward Fionn. "Fionn-dono, can you track Jack?"
"Humm...Let see..." Said Fionn while activating his Clairvoyance skills, which allow him to see anything from four kilometers away. "I see some mist. Three-point-two kilometers away from here." Fionn informs Cao Cao. "How we going to get there?"
"It simple." Said Cao Cao. A Hindu Magic Circle form below him, making him float in mid-air. "We fly to that location. You can fly aren't you?"
"Don't underestimate my Magecraft." Said Fionn. He activated his own Magic Circle, making him float in midair.
"Khu khu khu. I already expect that you can." Said Cao Cao. "Now only wait for Arthur to arrive."
After Cao Cao said those words, the descendant of King Arthur appears with St. George and Vali via Teleportation Magic.
"Sorry for taking too long." Said Arthur apologize.
"It's okay." Cao Cao accepts his apology. "Vali, please guard the girls."
"You can count on me." Said Vali.
"Now then, since I here, I think that Flying Magic don't need. My Caliburn should be able to teleport us to that place." Said, Arthur, while unleashing Caliburn from a pocket dimension.
Both Cao Cao and Fionn canceling their Flying Magic. "Then, how could a sword teleport us to that place?" Ask Fionn.
"My sword, Caliburn, had the ability to control time and space, and can cut through dimension," Arthur explained his sword abilities.
'I can't believe that sword so powerful. It seems I've been outclassed in sword ability alone.' Thought St. George.
"It can cut through dimension!?" Said Fionn in disbelief.
Arthur just nodded.
"Like I said to you Fionn-dono, the course of the history of both dimensions is different." Said Cao Cao, he then turns his attention to Arthur. "We can't waste time too much for now."
"Very well then." Said, Arthur. Caliburn later emitting a Holy Aura and Arthur later swing it to empty air. Suddenly, a portal is formed, sucking Arthur, Fionn, and Cao Cao into it.
Meanwhile, in the bedroom of girls inside the villa, all of them are busy doing...girl business.
All of the girls now wearing bed pajamas that prepared by Le Fay. The only exception is Penthesilea, who still wearing her battle armor and sitting on the balcony.
"You know, I'm curious about the doll that comes the same time when I resurrect you Anna-chan." Said DxD Jeanne with curiosity to Anastasia. "Is that doll your Noble Phantasm?"
"This doll is not my Noble Phantasm. It just a doll named Viy." Anastasia replied. "C'mon Viy, say hello to everyone. All of them are my new friends." Said, Anastasia, while moving the doll.
"It must be one of your most treasured items when you're alive." Mata Hari remarked.
"If I remember again, this doll is the gift of my sixth birthday." Said Anastasia to Mata Hari. "Olga-neesan who gave it to me."
"If that's not your Noble Phantasm, how your Noble Phantasm look like?" Ask DxD Jeanne.
Anastasia smiled. "Viy, you can come out." After she said the words, a black smoke is formed an ogre-like beast behind her and had a pair of glowing eyes. It still on smoke form. "My true Noble Phantasm comes from a familiar named Viy, who actually belongs to the Russian Empire. Before I died, it formed a contract with me and thus became my Noble Phantasm as a Servant."
"But, that smoke doesn't possess you isn't it?" Ask Le Fay, curious about this Viy.
Anastasia shook her head. "No. Viy is actually kind. Isn't that right Viy?" Said Anastasia to her familiar. Viy just growled. "By the way, Viy gave me the abilities to control Ice and cold until minus one hundred degrees Celsius. If I still a Servant, my Mana mostly supplied by Viy, so I will take only a little of my Master Mana." Anastasia explained. "Viy also grant me the abilities to expose any secrets of the person I want to know."
"Hoo." Said Penthesilea that suddenly appears after sitting on the balcony. "Care to demonstrate it?"
Anastasia smirk hearing it. "With pleasure. Viy, expose Berserker secrets." Viy eyes glow is intensified for a second, then return to its usual glow. The black beast then growled to her master. Anastasia later had a teasing smile. "Penthesilea-san, you had hidden feelings for Achilles have you not?"
Penthesilea, hearing Anastasia statements, had her face turn completely red. "That's a lie! I never had feelings for that man!?"
"But that's what Viy tell me." Anastasia simply replied. "C'mon, is that really hard to accept those feelings?"
"I think you forgot something Anna-chan. The ancient heroes had a tendency of being high pride and suppressed their true feelings aside." Said DxD Jeanne. "Because that's how Herc-kun is behaving."
"What do you mean by that?" Ask Heracles who open the girl's bedroom door. "By the way, dinner is almost ready."
"Okay!" All of them, sans Penthesilea, yelled.
"By the way Penthesilea. Wash your face first." Said Heracles. "Are you sick or something?"
"Just forget it," Penthesilea replied.
On the Yggdmillenia Castle, Fate Jeanne is currently on the castle hall along with Siegfried and Georg. In front of them, some master's and Servants of the Black Faction are gathered. Of course, Vlad and Darnic are one of them.
"I welcome you to the base of Black Faction, Ruler." Said Darnic. "According to Archer, you had some important things for us. But before that, care to introduce the two young man beside you?"
"Uncle Gordes, is this the humans that you saw?" Ask Caules, whispering.
"There's no mistake," Gordes replied.
"Maybe their rumors already spread but let me introduce to you Siegfried-san and Georg-san." Said Fate Jeanne.
"Siegfried and... Georg? I'm sorry, but why their name sounds like heroes?" Ask Darnic.
"It's up to you to believe, but we truly a descendant of Johann Georg Faust and Nibelungenlied Siegfried respectively." Said, Georg.
Black Siegfried widen his eyes, shock realizing that he had a descendant.
"That's absurd!" Yelled Gordes. "How could Siegfried have a descendant!? You must be pretending!"
"If I stabbed this sword to your neck, will you be able to call me just pretending?" Ask Siegfried while unsheathing Gram. The sword later emitting a dark aura.
"Impo...ssible..." Darnic muttered. He never expected to see a mythological weapon with his own eyes.
"That aura...from what I read, only one sword could produce it..." Caules look in awe.
"The sword that kills Fafnir..." Said Fiore.
Frankenstein growled and entering battle stance.
Black Siegfried widen his eyes.
"That's right. This is Gram, the strongest of all Demonic Sword." Said Siegfried with pride. "But, we came on neutral intentions; don't make a shocking face like that." He then sheathed the Gram back.
"Siegfried descendant..." Said Vlad suddenly, who look at him with interest. "Judging from your clothes, are you also the faithful follower of God?" He asked.
"That's true," Siegfried replied. Although the God from the Bible is dead, he still holds some degree of his teaching.
"Would you like to join hands with the Black Faction as the same follower?" Vlad offered.
"No, King of Romania. Although actually, I interest enough to join you so I can witness your strength, I pledge my loyalty to him only." Siegfried rejected. "You must talk to my leader for your offer."
"Too bad then..." Said Vlad in disappointment. He then looks toward Fate Jeanne. "Then, what important information you must tell us, Ruler?"
"This Great Holy Grail War had an abnormality. It not just the battle between Black and Red." Fate Jeanne replied.
"Then, I guess this hero's descendant like the one in front of us is that abnormality?" Ask Darnic.
"No, these humans gladly helping me to search for the abnormalities. The reason they captured me is that they just want to talk." Said Fate Jeanne half-lying, hiding the fact that they came from different dimension from Black Hole Phenomena. "The abnormalities from what I investigate with these humans' groups is about a rogue Servant from Sixty years ago. More precisely, the time you stole the Holy Grail from Japan, Darnic."
"Sixty years ago?" Said Darnic, he then widens his eyes. "Impossible...don't tell me..."
"You know something about it grandfather?" Ask Fiore.
"I just remember something unpleasant," Darnic replied. "Then, what this rogue Servant information?"
"From what I get, his wish is to make very human in this world became immortal through the using of Heaven's Fell. It will be sucking the human soul out from their bodies by absorbing their Magical Energy, making a stagnant world where all human will be saved." Fate Jeanne explained.
Silence fills the room.
Then Gordes laughing. "HAHAHAHA! Save all humans! Who the heck had such stupid wish like that!?"
"A wish like that can't be allowed to happen." Said Chiron.
"A foolish wish indeed. Either he has lost his faith, or because of his past..." Vlad mumbled. "Is there another thing you must inform us?"
"I want the Black Faction to guard the Holy Grail carefully. Aside from Red Faction and your rogue Assassin, there's a third party." Said Fate Jeanne.
"A third party?" Ask Darnic.
"Yes. tomorrow, the rest of our group will come here to inform the third party." Said, Georg.
"Hoo. Why don't you tell us now?" Ask Vlad.
"It simple. We still can't trust you fully." Georg replied. "Now then, I think we must go back."
"Wait, Georg." Said Siegfried. He looks toward Black Siegfried. "So, you're my ancestor? care for a sword sparring?" He challenged him.
"You're crazy! There's no way-" Said Gordes.
"I accepted it." Black Siegfried accepted.
"Whaaat!? Saber, you forgot what I said, you only talk when I ordered you too!" Yelled Gordes.
"Master, as I obey your orders, a fellow warrior challenge me is something I can't pass by." Said Black Siegfried apologize to his Master.
Gordes gritted his teeth for a moment, then sighed. "Very well. You got my permission..." He said unwillingly.
"I'm glad. But there's one condition of it." Said Siegfried. "I want this battle not watch by your faction. Just me and my ancestor, face to face."
"Then at least, let me watch the battle." Said Caules. "You must be don't want Uncle Gordes to be the one that watches it am I right?"
"You clever young one aren't you?" Said Siegfried. "Very well."
"If Siegfried does it..." Said, Georg, while looking at Fiore. "I heard that you are the most talented young Magus in your faction. a person talks to me about it." Said Georg referring to Zelretch. "Care for some Magic combat?"
Fiore was taken aback by this mysterious man challenge. 'He's challenging me?' She thought. "I think you know why you choose me..." She said solemnly.
"To be honest, I don't challenge you because of your condition." Said Georg referring to her condition in a wheelchair. "I just curious by your abilities. If you don't trust me, Sagittarius-san can watch our battle."
Fiore then hesitatingly nodded. "I accept then." She then looks at her Servant. "Archer, please watch for me."
"As you wish Master," Chiron replied.
"It settled then." Said Siegfried. 'I can't wait to see his abilities. After all, he's one proof that humans could stand against Supernatural Beings.'
Meanwhile, on the city of Trifas, Mordred and Kairi are on hunting for rogue Assassin of Black. They already received a call from Mage Association to exterminate the rogue Servant.
"Damn. If continue like this. I'll be the one that breaks the association rules." Said Kairi while scratching his head after making a civilian lose their memories.
However, Mordred notices something strange, a fog suddenly is gathered around them. "Oi, something strange." She said while summoning her sword, Clarent, a holy sword that rival Excalibur and Caliburn and the one used to kill King Arthur in Battle of Camlan.
"This Fog..." Said Kairi while walking backward, seeing the fog is getting thicker and thicker. He then closes his nose and mouth with his palm, sensing something strange. He then coughing and felt weakened.
"Master!?" Yelled Mordred.
"It's poison! Don't inhale it, Saber!" Said Kairi with a warning tone.
"Something like this can't affect me!" Mordred retorted.
"Out of it..." Said Kairi. "We must go as far as we can from this mist."
Mordred later supporting her Master. "Tight your grip, Master!" She later carries her Master as far as possible from the fog.
On the top of a tall building, Cao Cao, Arthur, and Fionn emerge from the space that was cut by Caliburn.
"So that's how it feels travel using that sword ability." Said Fionn.
"You will get used to it eventually." Said, Arthur.
"Now then, I see some unnatural mist on there." Said Cao Cao, looking the mist from the building. "Is that Jack the Ripper Noble Phantasm?"
"It could be," Arthur replied.
"Let see..." Said Fionn while activating his skills. "Ah. I see a Servant with her Master. I think is the Saber of Red."
"So the Red Faction also thinks it as a nuisance." Cao Cao mumbled. "I think our best move is to keep the Saber of Red occupied while maybe I or Fionn-dono will take care of Jack."
"You take care of this mysterious Servant?" Ask Fionn. "Aren't you too confident about this?"
"Maybe I'm too confident. I only know this Servant by data and history." Cao Cao admitted. "But...I can't let a serial killer like this murdering innocent people. The Hero Faction first motto is eradicated Supernatural Being that brings harm to humans. If I not doing this, it is not our motto."
Fionn smile hearing it. "I'm glad I've been resurrected by you." He said. "Then, what should I do?"
Back to the Yggdmillenia fortress, more precisely on the open plains close to the castle, Georg and Siegfried both facing their respective foes. Fate Jeanne also watching the battle while Caules is beside her. Vlad is watching as well while sitting on a chair that was prepared by Darnic, although with a condition he not allowed to watch the battle as Vlad is curious.
"Now then, for no one to watch us..." Georg activating his Dimension Lost, creating an Artificial Space that separates them from the real world.
"An interesting ability indeed. So that's how he escapes any detection." Vlad acknowledges Georg's talent. "Your allies surely very useful Ruler."
"How he able to master this kind of Magecraft?" Ask Caules in amazement.
"It is not Magecraft. Its Magic called Dimension Lost." Said Georg lied.
"Now then." Siegfried unsheathed Gram and Nothung. "I suppose we begin?"
Black Siegfried nodded. Unsheathed Fate Balmung. However, Fate Balmung is counted as a Holy Sword, unlike the DxD one that counts as Demon Sword. "I think we must introduce our-self. I'm the wandering Knights of Netherlands, Siegfried. Here I come!"
"My name is Siegfried. Also known as Chaos Edge Sieg." Siegfried replied.
After the words are out, both of them run forward and clash their sword against each other. Sparks of aura created by their clashing. Both then later moved on a speed that was unlike a normal human.
"Interesting indeed. You had great allies for you Ruler." Said Vlad.
Back to the battle, both fighters are pressing their sword against each other.
"As expected of my ancestor, your sword, your conviction, is all rain down from your sword to mine." Said Siegfried praising his ancestor.
"The same goes for you." Said, Black Siegfried.
The two later broke the sword clashing. "Nothung!" Yelled Siegfried. he then swings the purple sword down, creating a kenatsu that race toward his ancestor. Black Siegfried managed to avoid it, although he was shocked by seeing the effect. The kenatsu cut the place he once stood, creating a crescent-shaped portal that sucks anything close to it.
'What a power!' Black Siegfried thought.
"My sword Nothung is specialized in sharpness. So sharp, that it can even rip space-time. A wise move that you make." Siegfried complimented.
Vlad who watch this, smirk in interest. 'An interesting ability. Is my Noble Phantasm can defeat that sword?' He thought in amusement.
'He didn't even use that sword abilities on me. He's holding back when facing me.' Fate Jeanne thought.
'What the heck with that sword!? Don't tell me his Gram had special abilities as well!' Caules thought.
Back to the battle, Black Siegfried starting to push Siegfried into defensive because of his superior swordsmanship. Both has stopped when their clash Gram and Fate Balmung against each other. 'As a Servant, of course, he had an advantage.' Siegfried thought. 'But...'He then unleashes his Dragon Arm with DxD Balmung at a stabbing position, thrusting it toward Black Siegfried with amazing speed. Black Siegfried managed to avoid it by moving his head to the side, then jump backward. Using the chance, Siegfried releasing Gram Destructive Aura toward him.
"The Evil Dragon will fall. The world will now reach the sunset. Fall! Balmung!" Said Black Siegfried shouting the name of his Noble Phantasm. A weak version of Fate Balmung Destructive Aura later clashes with Gram. A clash of energy happened. But, Siegfried found his Destructive Aura being overpowered. He had no choice but jump to the side to avoid the blast. The blast incinerated several trees behind him.
"Interesting. You can overcome Gram Destructive Aura, as I expected of my ancestor. It seems I must go seriously now. Balance Break!" Said Siegfried. After that, another three Dragon Arms is emerged from his back and carrying another three swords.
"Now I see. That's where your epithet coming from." Said, Black Siegfried.
"Correct. These are another three swords is Tyrfing, Dainsleif, and Hikari no Ken. And this is my trump card, Chaos-edge Asura Ravage." Said Siegfried.
"Impossible! He had five strongest Demon Sword for his arsenal!?" Said Caules in disbelief.
'He even didn't show this when facing me and Atlanta. So, this is Siegfried-san Balance Breaker.' Fate Jeanne thought.
"Care to continue?" Ask Siegfried.
"Very well then." Both of them later clash their sword once more.
"Since they already begin, I think we begin our as well." Said, Georg.
Fiore also ready. She's now using something like spider limbs on her back. "I'm also ready at any time. Although I feel sorry for your comrades right there."
"Don't worry about him. He's called Chaos Edge Sieg for a reason." Georg then unleashed three Magic Circle behind him, shooting Magic Bullets from it.
"Jupiter." Said Fiore quickly acted, two of the arms later deflected the Magic Bullets with ease.
"What the!?" Said Georg in disbelief. He then jumps to avoid one of the limbs that tried to grab him.
"Got You. Mars." One of the limbs later opens, revealing something like a shooter in it. It then shoots a barrage of Magic Bullets toward Georg who still in mid-air.
"Too slow." Georg then covered his body with the mist of Dimension Lost, deflecting the Magic Bullets. He then lands on the ground while preparing another Magic Circle. "Let see how you stop the combination of Black Magic, Norse Magic, and Fairy Magic." Said Georg who launch a massive Magic Bullet toward Fiore.
'That energy...is dangerous!' Fiore thought. He moves to the side to avoid the blast.
Georg smirked. "You fall for it." Not long after he said that a Magic Circle formed below Fiore. She then found herself being bind by a Magic Chains.
Chiron who seeing this was amazing. 'Since when he prepares the Magic Circle?'
"H-how...?" Ask Fiore in disbelief.
"The truth is, the blast that I shot to you was a normal Magic Blast that even you can take it on." Said, Georg. "By saying I use three combinations of Magic, I silently preparing a Trap Magic Circle beside you with the hope you touch it. All according to my plan."
"How can you prepare it?" She asked. "I don't see you perform any sign except preparing the blasts..." She then gasps. "Don't tell me..."
"That's right. I prepare it to use the move of my feet." Said, Georg. "After all, people always said to me I was talented the moment I born."
"I see...however-" She tried to cut the Magic Chains using her mechanic limbs, only to find it can't be cut at all.
"You can never cut it." Said, Georg.
Fiore, despite hearing this, is smiling. One of the limbs is opened, preparing to fire a barrage of Magic Bullets. "Mars!" She yelled.
Georg then preparing Magic Circle. "Mars." He said. A similar barrage of Magic Bullets is formed, canceling her Magic Bullets.
"Impossible..." Fiore mumbled in disbelief.
"This also another of my specialty. If I know the formula, I can use the same Magic that my opponent used." Said, Georg. "Your Magic Bullets consists of Mana. It is rather easy for me to copy it."
'And he's able to mimic my Master Magecraft from seeing it once. What an amazing talent this man had. He maybe could compete with low-class Caster in term of Chanting.' Chiron thought.
"Now then I think it's time to sleep." The Magic Circle below Fiore then emitting a gas. She found herself overcome by drowsiness and then fall asleep. The Magic Circle and Magic Chain disappear not long after.
"Despite your loss. I acknowledge your strength, young lady." Said, Georg, while looking at her unconscious form.
Back to Siegfried and Black Siegfried, both are injured, but Siegfried is the one that had many injuries on his body. He is panting in exhaustion. "I can't believe it. Even after I am using Balance Breaker, the result is a tie?"
"Yes. If this continues, both of us will be killed. You had three Dragon-slaying swords in your arsenal, thus can cut through my Armor of Fafnir, while I beat you in term of swordsmanship." Black Siegfried replied.
"No, let us continue." Said, Siegfried, while stands up once more. "Dainsleif!" He swung the sword down, creating a pillar of ice from the ground below Black Siegfried, making him thrown to the air. He then jumps toward his ancestor. "Tyrfing!" He said while swinging his sword, who specialized in strength, down. Black Siegfried who found himself unguarded, is slice by the sword, although he protected because it doesn't have Dragon-slaying abilities.
'Ugh...What power!' Black Siegfried thought while being crashed to the ground.
"Now. Balmung!" He yelled, releasing a grinding whirlwind on mid-air toward the Dragon-slayer.
Black Siegfried block it with his sword, although found himself being slowly overwhelmed by it. However, he seems to realize something. 'Now I see.' He then manages to cut the whirlwind, although he found his arm is injured because of its Dragon-slaying abilities. "That Dragon Arm of yours is not just an extra arm. It doubles your power am I right?"
"So, you figure it out..." Said Siegfried. He then drops all his sword. "I acknowledge your power. You win. I still can't beat you." He continued. 'So, I still didn't reach his realm...'
"You great enough. Although I must give you an advice. You should try to master one of your swords first. It's not like I said that you don't master your swords at all. But, they hidden power still not awakened." Said Black Siegfried, advising his descendant while sheathing his sword. "Besides, passing through my Dragon Armor was amazing feats for a normal human like you. I acknowledged you as my descendant."
"Huh. Although I still lose?" Ask Siegfried with a smirk.
Black Siegfried nodded. "I hope we can clash sword again next time."
"And when that time comes, I'll defeat you." Said Siegfried.
"Siegfried-san." Said Fate Jeanne to him. "Let's go back. We can't make the others waiting."
"Haah. Okay then." Said, Siegfried, while picking up his swords. "Now just wait for Georg."
"I already finish." Said Georg who appears behind him. " As I expected, that young female Magus is strong."
"Heh. But, still not enough to beat you." Siegfried replied.
Georg just smirk
"You prepare a trap Magic Circle that filled with sleeping gas below my Master." Said Chiron, who carrying Fiore who sleeping due to sleeping gas. Georg turns his attention toward him. "You prepare it during the same time you create that Magic Blast. A clever strategy indeed."
"I'm honored being praised by you, Sagittarius-san." Georg replied. He then canceled his Dimension Lost, returning them to the real world once more.
After returning to the real world, Vlad is chuckling while clapping his hands. "Impressive. I don't think that there are humans who capable of matching Servants. It's shame both of you don't want to join us."
"Big Sis, are you okay?" Ask Caules with worry.
"Don't worry, she's just sleeps," Chiron informs while putting her Master back to her wheelchair.
"Now then, I think we must go back." Said Georg, he then looks toward the Black Faction. "We will meet again on tomorrow noon." He then activated Dimension Lost, disappearing from the fortress of Black Faction.
"Now then, I think it's time we return to our base." Said Vlad who change to his Astral Form. Black Siegfried also do the same.
Caules is still patting his sister's head. "Archer, is that man do any harm to Big Sis?"
"No, not at all. He only makes her sleep." Said Chiron. "The one I interest is his Magic. It's not like Magecraft at all. It like the normal Magic from the Age of Gods."
Back to Georg and the others, both are returning to the villa via Dimension Lost teleportation.
"You so reckless, Siegfried." Said Georg to his comrades while healing him using Healing Magic.
"In anyways, now I know the power gap between me and my ancestors. His power almost the same as Vasco Strada, no maybe even stronger." Siegfried replied. "And, I got a new way to got stronger."
"What do you mean by that?" Ask Georg.
"So, you already return." Said Vali who flying above them using Albion Wing.
"Where's Cao Cao-san?" Ask Fate Jeanne.
"He, along with Arthur and Fionn-san is hunting the rogue Jack the Ripper," Vali replied. "By the way, why Siegfried is injured?"
"He challenges his ancestor," Georg replied.
"I see..." Vali mumbled. "Georg. I need you to teleport me and my team to the dimension where you put those relics. My team will summon our Servant in the morning."
Back on Trifas city corridor, Mordred manages to bring her Master to safety. "Yosh. There is no mist in here."
Kairi still panting but feels healthier than before. "Oi. After this-" Suddenly, a young girl appears behind him, ready to slice his throat open with a knife. The girl had short white hair and yellow eyes with a slit pupil. Her face had a scar on her left eye and right cheek. He wears some kind of black tight clothes with many knives sheathed on her waist. She was the rogue Assassin of Black, or Jack the Ripper.
Mordred who seeing her, quickly use ground-slash to make her Master fall, making him escape from terrible fate. She then manages to strike Jack's right arm, injuring it. The famous serial killer later jumps backward to avoid another slash from Clarent. "Unfortunately, he's my Master."
Kairi just looks at Jack with confusion. Jacks knife is fall close to him.
Jack is watching her injured right arm. "Ah. It's injured. Your evil." She said.
Mordred pointing her sword at her. "What do you mean? A serial killer had no right to say such a thing." She countered.
"That's trivial, right?" With a sinister face, she throws numerous knives on the Knight of Treachery as a distraction while she jumps back to the mist. Before Mordred can pursue her, a cut of Holy Aura from Arthur Caliburn stops her.
"Who's there?" Ask Mordred seeing the descendant of King Arthur is standing on the top of a building.
"Just a Holy Sword user." He replied while jumping to the ground. "Is nice to meet my grandmother face to face."
Jack is landing safely in the ground that was covered by her mist. 'Why she didn't chase us?' She thought in confusion when suddenly, the True Longinus appears behind her. Her sense quickly catches the presence, and she jumps before it can pierce her. "Who're you?"
Cao Cao then walks forward. "Someone who will take your head for those you killed."
