"Such a luxurious lineup?" After listening to Shirou's narration, all the Masters in the hall looked envious.
Goodness, if their Yggdmillennia had such a lineup, how could the Red Faction even fight them? Wouldn't it be an easy sweep? The Black Faction Masters, who still didn't fully understand the Red Faction's true strength, couldn't help but start dreaming.
"Hercules and Medea, eh?" Hearing these two familiar names, Chiron couldn't help but feel nostalgic. Unlike the other five, these two were his compatriots, heroes from Greek mythology. Especially Hercules, he was his disciple.
"Don't look at this luxurious lineup; the strongest among them was undoubtedly the King of Heroes, Gilgamesh.
That guy has the prototypes of all Noble Phantasms."
"Therefore, in his treasury, any Noble Phantasm can be found. His normal attack is to shoot Noble Phantasms as arrows, which is extremely terrifying!"
"Such an existence actually exists?" Hearing Shirou's words, both the Masters and Servants present looked stunned.
"Of course, King of Heroes Gilgamesh is undoubtedly a figure standing at the pinnacle of Heroic Spirits."
"In the entire Throne of Heroes, there are only a few who can rival him."
"But coincidentally, one of the few who can rival him among Heroic Spirits has also descended into this Great Holy Grail War, becoming a Servant of the Red Faction."
"Are you talking about Karna?" Darnic, who had already spoken with Gordes on the way back, asked seriously.
"That's right, Karna is indeed our formidable enemy; his strength is extremely terrifying." Although it was already clear that the opponent was Karna, unless one had actually fought this Heroic Spirit, no one could truly understand the specific strength of those Heroic Spirits.
Especially those top-tier Heroic Spirits. Each of them was the strongest or most outstanding person in their own legends and biographies. But after becoming Heroic Spirits, some are top-tier ceilings, while others are top-tier floors. And there are also those who are off-the-charts existences. These people cannot be compared just by reading their biographies and myths; they need to be brought out and tested.
"As a great hero of India, Karna possesses armor that can reduce enemy attacks to one-tenth."
"And he also has an A+ rank Anti-Country Noble Phantasm and an EX rank off-the-charts Anti-Divine Noble Phantasm."
"The indestructible blade he holds has divine-level spear arts, and he possesses flames as the son of the sun god."
"Such an enemy has almost no discernible weaknesses!"
"..." Only at this point did the surrounding Masters truly understand Karna's terror.
"He's truly terrifying. He seems to be well-rounded in both offense and defense in every aspect, with no weaknesses." Chiron, as the Great Sage, also offered his insights at this moment. "Among us, probably only the Great Lord can contend with such an off-the-charts Servant!" In an instant, everyone turned their gaze to Vlad III.
"If Red Lancer Karna attacks, I will personally deal with him." Clearly, Vlad III also understood that such an enemy could only be handled by him.
"However, Assassin, you seem to know a great deal about Heroic Spirits. Do you have any other insights?"
"Indeed, I do!" Facing Vlad III's question, Shirou said seriously, "As our opponents, the Holy Relics used by the Red Faction to summon Heroic Spirits were clearly provided by the Mage's Association."
"As the overlord of the magecraft world that has stood for thousands of years, its foundation is simply unimaginable."
"From Karna's appearance, it's clear that the opponents summoned are probably all top-tier Heroic Spirits, and there might even be existences not inferior to Karna among them."
"Therefore, in the upcoming battles, we need to be extremely cautious and avoid unnecessary losses." The people in the hall nodded slightly. Indeed, although they hated the Clock Tower, they couldn't ignore the Clock Tower's deep resources. Especially Darnic, no one understood the Clock Tower's terror better than he did.
"Speaking of which, Shirou, you seem to know a lot about Heroic Spirits. Did you meet many Heroic Spirits during your lifetime?" Astolfo, ever familiar, curiously grabbed Shirou's arm and asked.
"That's right, I indeed met many Heroic Spirits during my lifetime."
"In the future, there will be a world-ending crisis. In that battle, countless Heroic Spirits were summoned and joined the war."
"Even Grand Servants descended, making it the ultimate battle!"
"That's why I know many Heroic Spirits." Shirou felt that after playing FGO, it was always easy for him to lie. As the 48th Master, what's wrong with me saving the world!
"I see, so that's how Assassin became a Heroic Spirit!"
Fiore couldn't help but exclaim, after all, this was a hero who saved the world!
"No need to specifically call me Assassin; after all, no one knows my legend, so it's fine to call me by my True Name." Shirou disliked the title of Assassin more than his own name. After all, mentioning "Assassin" always felt eerie. He was a warrior in the style of King Hassan!
"By the way, since you're familiar with Heroic Spirits, Emiya, do you recognize him?" With that, Darnic used his magic power to display a magical recording in front of Shirou. The scene in the recording was of Red Saber and her Master, Shishigou Kairi, dealing with the Yggdmillennia's golems and homunculi. Looking at the invincible knight in the recording, Shirou couldn't help but smile.
"Familiar, of course, I'm familiar! This is my good daughter, Mordred!"
"Huh? Is that the rebellious knight Mordred? Is she female?" Combining Shirou's earlier explanation that the Heroic Spirit he once summoned was King Arthur, Fiore felt as if she had learned something.
"Huh? Did I not say? King Arthur and Mordred are both female!"
"No, you didn't!" Faced with Shirou's somewhat unreliable statement, everyone said in unison. After all, this information was too astonishing. The legendary King Arthur was actually a woman.
"Mr. Darnic, please leave this Mordred to me! This could be considered our fate!"
"Since that's the case, I'll leave it to you, Emiya." From Shirou's words, the people in the hall easily inferred that Shirou seemed to have had some indescribable encounter with Heroic Spirit King Arthur. This made everyone's imaginations run wild. Especially Celenike, Astolfo's Master. Already having sinister intentions towards Astolfo, her eyes now gleamed even brighter. This made
Astolfo tremble.
"Strange, who's plotting against me!"
________________________________________
Led by a servant, Shirou arrived at the room Darnic had arranged for him. Lying on the soft bed, his thoughts involuntarily turned to the future.
"I need to quickly eliminate Mordred and complete my sublimation."
"In that case, I might be able to accumulate my Great Feats before the Great Holy Grail War ends." In the system of Divine Blessing, an adventurer's any single stat reaching D-rank fulfills the minimum condition for leveling up. At this point, crossing a Great Feat allows them to level up. If one does not wish to level up immediately, this Great Feat can also be accumulated.
That is to say, only when a certain stat reaches D-rank or higher can Great Feats be stored. Previously, in the DanMachi world, Shirou, who had just leveled up, participated in the subjugation of the Fallen Spirits.
Although he completed this Great Feat, he couldn't store it because none of his stats had reached D-rank at the time. So that Great Feat was wasted. After all, time was pressing then, and there was no time for Shirou to train.
But the duration of the Great Holy Grail War is not short. Under the blessing of Myriad Hardships, intense battles will rapidly increase Shirou's stats. Especially his magic power, which is the fastest-rising stat for Shirou.
"In that case, battles with Karna and Achilles will have to be left for last."
"After all, if I want to level up again, only those two might be possible!"
