TM : [103] Noble Phantasm Unleashed
🕑 Added 2023-11-02 16:05:00 +0000 UTC"Ha!" Karna shouted, sweeping his spear towards Altera.
"Useless move," Altera said as her longsword transformed into a whip, entwining around Karna's spear and pulling it away.
In the next moment, Karna's spear slipped from his hand and burst into flames, wrapping around the spear as it lunged towards Altera.
Boom!
A surge of magical power in a vacuum emanated from Altera, sending the spear flying in the air and spinning before returning to Karna's hand.
In the distance, on a building several kilometers away, Archer EMIYA observed this battle.
A Heroic Spirit whose spear could emit flames and thunder.
A Heroic Spirit that wielded a sword that could transform into a whip, and not only that, it could also use flames and even ice.
No doubt.
Just by witnessing this battle, Archer understood.
Both of them stood at the pinnacle of Heroic Spirits, the most elite.
He might not be a match for either of them.
"Really, this Holy Grail War seems quite challenging this time."
"How's the situation on the battlefield?" Kiritsugu inquired through the connection between Master and Servant.
"It's evenly matched so far. Hm? Lancer exposed a vulnerability, and Saber charged—"
Just now, Lancer released lightning all around him and threw his spear, and during this time, Saber, seizing the opportunity, swung her rainbow-like sword at him, as if about to split Lancer in half.
"Exterminate you!" The chilling words seemed to freeze the flames.
"No need for a spear; a true hero kills with their eyes," Lancer said. And with that, a lethal light gleamed in Lancer's eyes—
And behind Saber, the spear was shimmering with flames as it charged towards her.
This was a double attack from the front and back!
"That Lancer..." Archer narrowed his eyes slightly.
"Kavacha, huh?"
In the distance, there was another person watching this battle, Kurokawa Kazuya.
His eyes were not like a human's, and indeed, they were not. He currently possessed abilities similar to that Archer, and even from several kilometers away, he could clearly see the progress of the battle.
Hawkeye—
Just as the name suggested.
Although due to the low level of the skill Ultimate Life Form, he couldn't drastically change his own form, having too many abilities of different creatures, he could still mimic an eagle, allowing himself to have the eyes of an eagle.
He clearly saw the trajectories of the two combatants.
Lancer's armor, Karna's, called "O' Sun, Become Armor," abbreviated as Golden Armor, Kavacha, was a powerful defensive Noble Phantasm that wouldn't be affected by A+ ranked Noble Phantasms, maintaining mobility.
However.
On the other side, Altera was also a seasoned combatant.
The sword that entwined around Karna didn't cut him in half, but left a shallow blood mark on him.
But now, the attack was coming.
Altera lifted herself high and retracted her sword. "Destroy you—"
Boom!
In an instant, the longsword turned into a massive pillar of light sweeping towards Karna!
"Ha!"
Flames ignited all over Karna's body, and the sun-shaped emblem on his back opened up. Symmetrical decorations appeared on his sides, appearing as if he were an undying bird charging at the colossal sword—
Boom!
The intense shockwave turned the surrounding jungle into ruins. The visibility, which had been compromised due to the forest, was now exceptionally clear.
Kayneth, hiding nearby, used his formal wear to block the explosive impact. "I see, it seems to be a formidable Heroic Spirit... good. Let's experiment here; what kind of Noble Phantasm does this Heroic Spirit possess?"
Kayneth chuckled and said.
Even if the Noble Phantasm was exposed, he wouldn't lose, after all, there was still a top-tier Heroic Spirit on this side. Now, just by judging from this battle, it was enough to determine the level of this Heroic Spirit in front of him.
Ka—
Accompanied by the sound of stepping on dried branches.
Both Heroic Spirits revealed themselves; they were the two individuals who emerged unscathed even amidst such an explosion.
"Impressive, never thought I'd encounter such a formidable opponent in the first battle." Flames resembling magical power continuously emanated from Karna's body. He aimed his spear at Altera's vital points.
"An ancient civilization's flavor, but, so what? I am a warrior, a killing machine. No matter what stands in my way, I will—destroy it!"
"I see... Destruction isn't a process but the result, huh." Karna looked at the Heroic Spirit in front of him. "Although I don't know your true name, I won't lose."
"Saber—"
"Hm?" Karna glanced around. "Saber's Master..."
"Allow you to use your Noble Phantasm!"
"Understood—" Altera spoke, she retracted her sword. The hilt pointed towards the sky! A beam of light was projected.
In the sky, layers of light formed.
"Mars's Sword, firing in two seconds—"
"Master..." Feeling the immense magical power fluctuation in the sky, Karna used the connection between Servant and Master to speak. "Please allow me to use my Noble Phantasm."
"..." Tohsaka Tokiomi remained silent.
Different from King of Heroes, he could share vision with Karna, so he also knew the tremendous power of that attack.
Undoubtedly, it was a Noble Phantasm meant for armies or cities, a satellite cannon from the sky—
"If you don't use your Noble Phantasm, can you block it?"
"No problem, but I'll probably be heavily injured."
"It's fine, just dematerialize immediately afterward."
"I understand," Karna said, not unleashing his Noble Phantasm but still exerting all his magical power. He couldn't evade this attack, so he could only defend against it!
"Star of Tears, War God's Sword!"
Boom!
A massive light pillar descended from the sky, fired from a satellite.
The magnitude of this power made even Kayneth, who knew Altera's stats, change his expression. He never expected the Noble Phantasm to be this powerful—
Not only that...
No one on this side saw it, but.
In the distance, observing Archer and Kazuya, they saw it.
The light pillar descending from the sky and... the residents of Fuyuki City, whose gazes were cast towards it, were also caught in its light!

I need some epic fight this arc, like having the counter force summoning a grand servant because someone fucked around and found out
willowskeith
Hmm i wonder how this will go. Given that the mc's own servant has the ability to turn into a saviour class... will altera awaken as her true 'self' or maybe its something to do with the other monsters in the world?
