Chapter 819: Medea, the Madwoman Who Wants to Kill Them All!
"Rat-a-tat-tat-tat-tat!"
Just as Faruzuki Tokito was about to command Assassin to take action, a tremendous commotion erupted around the Faruzan Residence once more.
Countless "Draconic Soldiers," each wielding various weapons, poured into the Faruzan Family's estate from all directions, like a surging tide. Their numbers were astonishing, reaching into the thousands!
What was even more outrageous was that the audience discovered that the weapons held by these Draconic Soldiers were all magic artifacts created using mana.
The strength of a single Draconic Soldier was naturally no match for a Heroic Spirit Servant, and even a somewhat skilled Mage Master could easily dispatch such magic constructs.
However, the problem at hand was the sheer number of Draconic Soldiers that had appeared.
A single Draconic Soldier might not be a concern, but with their magical artifacts, a group of over ten could pose a threat to a Master.
If their numbers reached a hundred, even a Heroic Spirit Servant without using their Noble Phantasm would need a considerable amount of time to defeat them. Now, with thousands of these well-equipped soldiers, they formed a formidable army!
"Impossible! Mere magic constructs, no matter how numerous, should not be able to breach the defensive barriers of my Magic Workshop!"
Faruzuki Tokito was baffled as he witnessed the influx of Draconic Soldiers from all sides. He had believed he had everything under control, but no one could have predicted the situation spiraling out of control this evening.
They had intended to unite against Caster, but little did they know that Caster had the same idea—to wipe them all out in one fell swoop!
"Defensive barriers? You call those shoddy and flawed spell formations defensive barriers? Such rudimentary arrangements are as good as non-existent to me."
A figure clad in a loose-fitting black cloak, unable to conceal her curvaceous figure, emerged, surrounded by several high-ranking Draconic Soldiers. Her expression, directed at Faruzuki Tokito and the others, was filled with mocking disdain.
Faruzuki Tokito might be considered a powerful modern Mage, and his Magic Workshop, enhanced by his mana and technical prowess, was indeed impressive.
However, regrettably, the person standing before him was the mightiest Mage from the Divine Era.
For Medea, the Mage closest to a Mage, unraveling Faruzuki Tokito's various magical setups was as effortless as a mathematics professor solving elementary school math problems.
The swarm of Draconic Soldiers instantly plunged the scene into chaos. Medea cared not for the number of small teams of Masters present; her goal was to capture them all in one fell swoop!
Previously, Medea's wish had been to use the Holy Grail to return to her time as a princess. But over time, her desires had changed.
She now sought to use the Holy Grail to gain a physical body, marry Night City, and bear many children in this era.
Anyone who stood in her way was her mortal enemy!
Medea's orders to the Draconic Soldier legion were clear: everyone except Sakura and Saber was to be eliminated!
Sakura was off-limits because she was Night City's disciple, making her Medea's disciple as well. Medea might be mad, but not to that extent.
As for Saber, Medea had no intention of killing her, purely due to personal reasons. She still coveted Saber's figure for her cosplay desires, and even if Saber had to be removed eventually, Medea wanted to satisfy her cosplay cravings first.
Aside from these two individuals, all other Masters and Servants present were marked for elimination by Medea.
Yes, everyone in the vicinity, including Berserker, Sakura's Servant, was a target for the Draconic Soldiers' attack.
Medea had not gone mad to the point of attacking her own allies; from the very start, she never considered Lancelot as one of her own.
In Medea's eyes, despite being summoned by Sakura, Lancelot should have served them faithfully as a Servant. Yet, this bastard, while his body was with Sakura, his heart still lingered with his former king.
Claiming to be a knight, yet having divided loyalties, was more nauseating to her than her own title of "Betrayal Witch."
Either be loyal or betray, but don't stand on both sides!
To win the Holy Grail, only one Master and Servant pair can remain in the end. Berserker will eventually have to exit the stage, so it's better to eliminate this unstable factor early on.
Medea, being a cunning witch, had long seen through Lancelot's inner thoughts.
His intention, she guessed, was to clear all obstacles for Sakura, and then sacrifice himself during the confrontation with Saber, dying by her sword.
In doing so, he would atone for his sins and also give up the final chance to fulfill his wish, leaving it to Saber and Sakura, his two masters.
However, to Medea's disappointment, she would never let him have his way. She was a selfish woman who, in the pursuit of "true love," had even killed her own younger brother.
This time, it wasn't a curse from a goddess, but her own chosen love. How could she let go of him so easily?
Forget about him being a temporary ally; even if it were a close relative or a deity, anyone who stood in Medea's way of pursuing happiness would be eliminated!
"Kirei, our chance has come. Have the Assassin hidden in the shadows make a move on Caster's Master. I'll do my best to create opportunities for you."
The fact that Caster's Master could easily break through the barrier of her own magic workshop proved that he was also a powerful magician.
Moreover, he was currently under the protection of a large army, making it difficult for them to take him down.
However, the appearance of Caster's Master might also present them with an opportunity to break the stalemate.
If they could eliminate Caster's Master, then no matter how strong Caster was, without the ability to operate independently and without the supply of mana from her Master, Caster would also quickly be forced to withdraw.
Rumor had it that Caster's Master could use high-difficulty transfer magic. With the obstruction of the Dragon Fang Soldiers, even against Heroic Spirits, she should have the ability to escape calmly, which was why she dared to appear so boldly on the battlefield.
But what they didn't know was that their Assassin had not yet withdrawn. Although Assassin's direct combat abilities might not be much better than Caster's, Assassin possessed the class ability of 'Concealment of Presence.'
Using 'Concealment of Presence' to approach Caster's Master unnoticed, and then delivering a fatal blow, would leave her no chance to use transfer magic, and the situation on the battlefield would instantly reverse!
Hearing Faruzuki Tokito's command, Kirei Shiki also gave orders to the Assassin hidden in the shadows.
Unaware of this, Medea watched the people in the field valiantly resisting the Dragon Fang Soldiers, a confident expression on her face, not realizing that danger had quietly crept up on her.
After several days of mana restoration in Yecheng, Medea's mana had reached an absurd level. These people probably thought there were only thousands of Dragon Fang Soldiers, but they didn't expect that this was just the beginning!
Tonight, no one but her, the ultimate victor, would leave this place alive!
