"Not necessarily, if that Knight King unleashes her The Master's treasure…" Black Jeanne said, then suddenly fell silent.
"Hmm, it seems you've noticed too, Black Jeanne," Wang Chong said. "For some unknown reason, neither the Knight King herself nor her Master behind her intends to reveal their The Master's treasure for a duel, even though they know the opponent has already shown theirs. If it were other Servants, it might be fine, but Diarmuid's Yellow Rose… Underestimating it can be fatal. If she doesn't use her The Master's treasure immediately, when she truly wants to use it later, I'm afraid it will be… too late."
"Clang, clang, clang—"
A continuous series of weapon clashes rang out. Under Diarmuid's fierce offensive, the Wind King Barrier was increasingly weakened, and Saber was actually suppressed by her opponent, constantly retreating.
After a series of exchanges, the two simultaneously pulled back. Diarmuid chuckled lightly and said, "I already know the length of my sword clearly. This way, I won't be confused by an invisible attack range!" With that, Diarmuid charged again. His continuous thrusts were parried by Saber's impenetrable defense, but Diarmuid was not anxious. He could feel the rhythm of the battle steadily falling into his control.
Subsequently, Diarmuid charged again, launching a fierce assault on Saber. Saber raised her holy sword high, her eyes slightly closed. Her (ancestral) Intuition began to activate, preparing to use her magic-composed armor to withstand Diarmuid's attack, then seize the momentary opening Diarmuid revealed to defeat him.
When she opened her eyes again, Saber moved, trusting her Intuition, and following the predetermined trajectory.
"Pfft—" Red blood flew out, but Saber's face showed no joy of victory. Instead, she retreated in surprise. A bloody wound was mercilessly gouged into Saber's waist.
"Father!!" A certain twisted father-fan almost rushed out, but gasping for breath and gritting his teeth, he still held back. This surprised Wang Chong, who was monitoring his Servant's situation. He had thought that Mordred would rush out this time, and then he could reasonably enter the fray himself.
"Mordred has really changed a lot during this time," Wang Chong couldn't help but think to himself.
Continuing to watch, Saber successfully recovered under Irisviel's healing magic. Saber also saw through the secret of the red spear and, knowing that her magic-composed armor could not block the opponent's magic-breaking red spear, she decisively abandoned her armor, sacrificing defense for extreme offense.
"Father and son are truly alike…" Wang Chong thought of a certain individual who enjoyed fighting by shedding his armor.
"Lost… Alas," Black Jeanne shook her head and sighed at this moment. "Originally, the magic-composed armor, although it couldn't block the magic-breaking Red Rose, could at least block the surprise attack of the Yellow Rose of Certain Death. But now, the Knight King has chosen to abandon her armor for extreme offense to break the situation… She is too overconfident."
"Don't be so quick to admit defeat. There might be a turning point," Wang Chong teased.
"No, their resolutions are completely different. Diarmuid, in order to win this battle, spared no effort in revealing all his trump cards, determined to completely seize the initiative in the battle. But that Knight King, it's as if she's bound by something, unable to truly fight without restraint. She hasn't even used her The Master's treasure release until now, but instead adopted this method of combat… She underestimated Diarmuid too much," Black Jeanne said seriously, watching Diarmuid retreat step by step towards the Yellow Rose lying on the ground.
And the moment the victor was decided arrived as expected. Diarmuid feigned a stumble, slipping his foot. Saber, who had been closely watching Diarmuid's state, naturally wouldn't miss this opportunity. The Wind King Barrier disappeared, Saber began to release her magic, and Excalibur also revealed its true form at this moment, emitting a dazzling golden light.
Saber rushed towards the unbalanced Diarmuid without a second thought. Diarmuid, seeing Saber charging, revealed a triumphant smile. Diarmuid vigorously kicked up the Yellow Rose of Certain Death lying on the ground, grasped it in his left hand, and then revealed its true form. Saber fully realized she had fallen into a trap. With the aid of her Intuition, she twisted her body with all her might, engaging the opponent while minimizing contact with the injured area.
"Rip—"
"Thrust!"
"Ugh—!"
Diarmuid's Yellow Rose of Certain Death pierced Saber's left arm, severing a tendon and rendering her left thumb useless. Saber's Caliburn also wounded Diarmuid's left wrist. Saber rolled on the ground somewhat disheveled before standing up.
"It's over," Black Jeanne said, looking at the state of the two. "It looks like both of their hands were cut, but… the nature is completely different. Diarmuid's wound can be healed, but Saber, pierced by the Yellow Rose, cannot recover. Although Saber dodged a fatal blow, only injuring her hand, she will no longer be able to unleash her The Master's treasure for attack. At this rate, Saber's defeat is only a matter of time."
If Wang Chong remembered correctly, in the original work, Iskandar also saw the situation of both sides and believed that Saber would only be defeated if she continued, so Iskandar intervened midway to interrupt the contest in order to make more Servants appear.
"Prepare yourself, Jeanne," Wang Chong slowly said.
"Huh? Why?" Jeanne asked, a little surprised.
"If they decide a winner, then it means it's our turn to appear." At this moment, black mist began to emerge from Wang Chong's body, and he started to control the black mist ring to instruct his Servants on the plan to be executed.
Meanwhile, Wang Chong sent a separate message to Mordred: "Well done, Mordred."
"Master… If we start fighting later, can I handle that sissy and Father King?" Mordred's somewhat gloomy voice entered Wang Chong's mind.
"Alright, you go all out." Wang Chong knew that if Mordred didn't vent, the child might get sick from holding it in, so he readily agreed. After giving instructions, Wang Chong began to wait for the Conqueror to appear and interrupt this battle.
...
As expected, upon realizing that the injuries could not be healed, both sides completely understood each other's identities. But even so, both Artoria (Saber) and Diarmuid were still full of fighting spirit. Just as they were about to fight again, a loud sound echoed from the sky, and several bolts of lightning struck around them, startling both of them as they looked up.
"Ooh la la la la—!!!"
"Whoa ah!!!!!"
A bold and rough voice came from the sky. The Conqueror, driving his chariot and carrying a tearfully wailing Waver, descended, landing directly between the two, forcing both Artoria and Diarmuid back!
"Both sides, sheathe your swords! No disrespect before the King's chariot!" The Conqueror, Iskandar (Alexander the Great), spread his arms and loudly declared, "My name is ConquerorIskandar, summoned to this world as the Rider class in this Holy Grail War."
At these words, everyone present was stunned.
Artoria: Where did this guy come from? What is he doing?
Diarmuid: Holy crap, he's even bolder than me?
Irisviel: What's going on? Why did the other side suddenly reveal their name?
"What are you thinking, you idiot!" Waver, the Master, began his panicked roar. But what awaited him, of course, was the Conqueror's flick of a finger.
"Although fate has made me contend with you for the Holy Grail, I want to ask one thing first: will you… join my ranks! And concede the Holy Grail to me? If so, I will treat you as friends and share the joy of conquering the world with you… Hmm!?" The Conqueror was about to begin his speech of recruitment and conquest, but suddenly, a monstrous black mist surged, instantly drawing everyone's attention again.
"I thought that as the famous Conqueror, coming to the front and interrupting the duel between two warriors with such might, you would have a profound discourse… I didn't expect such vulgar words!"
At that moment, this voice came from within the black mist, and then a large green sword directly struck the ConquerorIskandar.
Iskandar was not careless; he could sense the strength of the newcomer. His usual smile turned serious, and he raised his greatsword, which glowed with lightning, immediately engaging the opponent in battle.
"Boom!"
"Moo—!" Powerful energy erupted, causing the two closest lightning oxen to emit uneasy roars, not to mention Waver, who was closest. He was completely stunned at the moment, having never witnessed such a scene.
"Ugh—good lad!" Iskandar felt the heavy pressure on his sword and the might emanating from the opponent, which he had only felt from his former nemesis, Darius III (you will always get Darius in gacha), and this instantly brought a thrilled smile to the Conqueror's face.
