Chapter 790: Night City: Let's See How Powerful a Heroic Spirit Is!
It was not uncommon for issues with the Master's own existence to affect the summoned Heroic Spirit.
For instance, during the Fifth Holy Grail War, Faruzuki Rin had summoned a Red Archer Sir Saber who had lost his memories.
Similarly, it was no surprise that Kiryu Ganzai's summoned Lancelot was a berserk servant, as his insufficient mana had resulted in a flawed manifestation.
As Lancelot knelt on one knee before them, asking if he had found his Master, Little Sakura turned her head slightly to look at Night City beside her.
Although Sakura had summoned Lancelot, and the Command Seals had appeared on the back of her hand, according to the rules of the Holy Grail War, she was, in fact, Lancelot's rightful Master.
However, Sakura herself didn't have much interest in the Holy Grail, and she had summoned the Heroic Spirit merely to pass Night City's test. This was why, when faced with her Servant's question, she instinctively looked towards Night City.
But this seemingly innocent action from Sakura caused Lancelot, hidden beneath his armor, to furrow his brows slightly.
It was common knowledge that Lancelot was the strongest Knight of the Round Table and was known by titles such as 'Knight of the Lake'.
He had answered the call of the Holy Grail to atone for past mistakes and serve his lord as a knight, seeking victory.
However, despite having just arrived, Lancelot had already sensed that his current Master seemed to be under someone else's control.
Given this situation, as a knight, he couldn't stand idly by while his Master was not in control of his own actions!
"Master, I'll give you a detailed introduction later, but for now, allow me to eliminate the threats around you."
Lancelot, who had been kneeling, suddenly stood up, scanned the surroundings, and then strode towards a table. He extended his hand and snapped off one of the table legs made of iron.
The Hand of NTR... or rather, the Noble Phantasm Knight's Unarmed Incarnation activated, causing black and red patterns to instantly cover the iron table leg in his hand. The ordinary iron rod in his hand transformed into a D-rank Noble Phantasm in an instant.
With a suitable weapon in hand, Lancelot dashed towards Night City in the blink of an eye. Night City, who had anticipated this, drew his Magecraft Ensemble without hesitation, matching Lancelot's battle intent.
"Ding——————!"
The iron rod clashed with the longsword, and sparks flew as the Noble Phantasm and Magecraft Ensemble clashed, creating a powerful blast that swept away everything in the room.
Feeling the immense power transmitted through his Noble Phantasm, Lancelot's handsome face beneath the armor showed a look of bewilderment.
Before engaging with Night City, he had sensed a human aura from him.
Yet, despite being human, his opponent now possessed physical abilities that rivaled his own.
Setting aside the fact that his opponent was human while he was a Heroic Spirit, the gap between them was like heaven and earth.
When summoned into this world, the Holy Grail had already imparted modern knowledge to their memories.
Modern mages, in theory, should have only mastered low-level magecraft, with physical abilities slightly superior to ordinary humans.
Lancelot, as a Heroic Spirit, boasted an A-rank in Strength, one of the highest parameters among Heroic Spirits.
As Lancelot marveled at Night City's physical prowess, he was soon astonished to find that the force emanating from the so-called iron rod in his hand had strengthened once again.
The human before him smiled slightly and said, "It's too cramped in here, hindering our full potential. I think it's better to take this outside."
Before Lancelot could refuse, he felt the strength in his arms suddenly become overwhelming, and in the next moment, his body flew out of the Kiryu Mansion, feeling weightless.
"Teacher, what are you doing?"
Lancelot was sent flying by Night City's slash, and as he prepared to get up and give chase, Little Sakura, standing beside him, was utterly bewildered.
It was Night City who had summoned the Heroic Spirit, so why was he now fighting his own Heroic Spirit? Could it be that his teacher didn't summon the Heroic Spirit to win the Holy Grail, but merely to fight the Heroic Spirit? A battle maniac who fought for the sake of fighting?
"Don't worry, I won't do anything to the Heroic Spirit you summoned. I just want to test his skills and strength."
"This is my first time fighting a Heroic Spirit. With a reference point, I can also gauge my own strength and determine my level in this Holy Grail War."
As Night City finished speaking, his body burst out of the Kiryu Mansion. Kiryu Ganzai and Little Sakura, who heard his words, were momentarily stunned.
They were aware that in the Holy Grail War, the participating Masters must fight, but they thought that Masters usually fought against other Masters, not Heroic Spirits. They had never heard of such a thing!
No, it was absurd for a human Mage to fight a summoned Heroic Spirit, and it was fundamentally impossible for them to win.
The so-called "Heroic Spirits" were heroes who had left their mark in a particular era or legend. After death, they signed a contract with Alaya, becoming Heroic Spirits, freed from the constraints of time, and moved to the Throne of Heroes, located outside the world.
Heroic Spirits came from various eras and places, and those who became Heroic Spirits were undoubtedly the protagonists of a particular era or story.
Facing such heroic figures, ordinary modern humans were insignificant in their eyes.
Night City was incredibly powerful, even capable of instantly defeating Kiryu Zangyin, the current head of the Kiryu family. But against Lancelot, whose ability parameters were almost all A-rank, Little Sakura felt that Night City still had no chance of winning.
To prevent a misunderstanding from leading to Night City's tragic death at Lancelot's hands, Little Sakura hurriedly followed him outside.
When they arrived at the Kiryu family's courtyard and saw the two figures clashing in mid-air, Little Sakura and Kiryu Ganzai were both shocked.
The two figures in mid-air were fighting at an incredibly high speed, their attacks too fast for Little Sakura and the others to discern their movements.
However, they could vaguely see that the weapons in their hands seemed to transform into streams of light, clashing continuously in the air as they wielded them at high speed.
"Crack—!"
After hundreds of collisions, the D-rank Noble Phantasm, transformed from an iron table leg in Lancelot's hand, finally emitted a sound of being unable to bear the burden.
