Chapter 91.16: Black Spear Saber Alter! The Spear Flickering at the Final End! The Sacred Spear Released—!!
『 Understanding Altera's intentions, Stheno breathed a sigh of relief and silently stepped aside.
Now, it was time for the Great King's performance.
Below, the Demon God Orias was still roaring incessantly.
"Illogical! Incomprehensible! To oppose us, yet to fight to this extent—the reasoning is completely unclear!"
"A rabble who doesn't even know the true value of the Age of Gods! An ignorant army! A gathering of mediocre Heroic Spirits!"
"With such minuscule aggregate values, how can you suppress us Nine Pillars!" Demon God Orias roared in rage.
"Emotion, desire, respect; these are our Light of Rome. There is no reason to lose to a lump of flesh made of so-called terror and despair."
"At this moment, one should say: Absurd. Furthermore," The God Ancestor was preaching to Nero, but at that moment, his expression froze, and he looked towards the depths of the sea of stars.
Something was falling from the firmament!
There was no need to detect that terrifying magical energy; at this moment, the entire Singularity could feel it, and everyone looked up in horror!
Above the firmament, a giant sword pierced through the chaos, its tri-colored radiance pulsating with terrifying light!
"Connecting with Mars. Firing in two seconds..."
"TEAR DROP PHOTON RAY—!"
⦍Star of Tears, Sword of the War God⦎
As the soft murmur of the Destroyer of Civilizations fell, that vast pillar of light descended along with it—
The blinding radiance illuminated the entire world in an instant; that light of destruction was too piercing to BEHOLD!!!
That was the Scourge of GOD—!
It was the Light of Heaven that destroyed and ended CIVILIZATIONS!!!
At this moment, its target was pointed directly at the monster constructed of flesh and magical energy, entrenching itself in the Singularity!
A terrifying shockwave swept across the earth, annihilating eight Demon God Pillars in a mere instant!
Although they were still recombining and regenerating, the speed of their reconstruction had slowed by more than a significant margin!
Stheno felt apologetic for what she had said earlier and looked at the Great King with a complex expression; she was now truly a human being.
Meanwhile, Fujimaru Ritsuka and Mash bid farewell to Nero and the others, heading towards the next Singularity! 』

[ Aiwass (A Certain Magical Index): "Is this one aspect of the so-called Vanguard of the Umbral Star? I sensed the destructive power of civilizational extinction within it." ]
[ Lev Lainur Flauros (Type-Moon): "Impossible! As the Destroyer of Civilizations, why would you choose to help humanity?!" ]
[ Altera (Type-Moon): "I did it because I wanted to." ]
[ Demon God Pillar Orias (Type-Moon): "Illogical… too illogical! Why can Chaldea borrow such power? Why can you, who are so insignificant, suppress us, Demon God Pillars!" ]
[ Tamamo Vitch Koyanskaya (Type-Moon): "You are too arrogant, Demon God Pillars. Does your so-called 'mediocrity' refer to a Grand without his disguised vessel, plus an avatar of the Umbral Star?" ]
[ Miyaba Sansui (???): "Eh?! Wait, where is the Grand? Who is the Grand?" ]
[ Red A⦍EMIYA⦎ (Type-Moon): "Isn't it obvious enough? Although that God Ancestor is merely standing there, isn't it clear just from his aura? He hasn't manifested in the Grand Class Spirit Origin only because of Chaldea's limitations." ]
[ Kazuma Satou (KonoSuba): "…Huh?! Is this person the God Ancestor? Then what Grand Class is he? And why is there no Grand Class Spirit Origin? How are we supposed to subjugate the Beast then?!" ]
[ Zhao Yun (Three Kingdom): "That sharpness that almost pierces the world… absolutely a Grand Lancer!" ]
[ Natsu Dragneel (Fairy Tail): "How to subjugate the Beast? That sort of thing doesn't matter! As long as you harbor courage, you can definitely break through anything!" ]
[ Nakano Miku (5-toubun No Hanayome): "What a pity. This is the Supreme God of Roman legend. If he were in his Grand form, he would surely be even more glorious." ]

"The Destroyer of Civilizations standing on the side of humanity…"
Sakamaki Izayoi frowned. A flash of insight crossed his mind as if he had grasped something, but he remained somewhat uncertain.

〜Type-Moon World, ????? Worldline〜
In the Inner Sea of the planet, In The Furthest Tower—
"Tsk tsk, the God Ancestor is indeed the God Ancestor. Even if downgraded, he is an existence of broken-tier power."
Merlin marveled secretly, naturally, incredibly curious about this Roman God.
In the endless river of time, some have compared him to the "Golden Three Targets," but in Merlin's view, that was small—the perspective was too small.
Leaving aside the gold content of a Grand, he was a Supreme God that the other three couldn't compare to.
Legend has it that when founding the Roman Empire, the God Ancestor planted his spear on the Palatine Hill.
It created "the past, present, and future form of the Imperial Capital Rome," washing away opponents with a torrent like raging waves.
This spear is connected to the World Tree, the symbol of Rome.
If the "Golden Three Targets" wanted to compete, unless Gilgamesh found his cosmic vessel, Karna activated the Shakti with the intent of the Trimurti, and Ozymandias crashed his pyramids into him.
However…
Merlin shook his head. He knew these were all supporting characters; the true amusement wasn't here at all!
"Don't keep me waiting too long, Romani~."
In the 5th Lostbelt, Interstellar Mountainous City, Olympus—
"One of the three Supreme Gods of Rome, Romulus-Quirinus, is it…"
A trace of doubt appeared in Zeus's eyes, which were filled with lightning.
Although they had never met, for some reason, he had the illusion that he would face this opponent in the future.

〜A Certain Magical Index World〜
All members of the Roman Orthodox Church revealed fanatical expressions!
God ANCESTOR!!!
Although it was from another world, it did not affect their fanaticism in the slightest. They did not worship a single entity, but the concept of Rome itself!
And the God Ancestor was the symbol of the development and expansion of Roman civilization, and the savage events of ancient Roman civilization in human history!
In their eyes, the world is Rome! We and thou are all children of ROME!!!

/Good news: News of another Grand has appeared.
/Bad news: The Grand logged into the wrong account.
/Someone is slacking off, but I won't tell who.
/My friend needs my help, so let me log in on my Alt account first.
.....
『 Viewers of Myriad Worlds 』
Everyone was somewhat puzzled yet expectant.
To subjugate a Beast, a Grand is indispensable. In other words, the existence of a Grand is to counter Humanity's Evil, but up until now, the Grand still hasn't shown up.
Or is it too early?
The Old Man of the Assassin Class has already exited the stage. Although time in the Throne of Heroes is chaotic, this timeline should remain unchanged.
This means that the one to subjugate this Beast won't be Grand Assassin or Lancer…
And there was something even more puzzling to everyone: for Heroic Spirits to exist in the material world, magical energy is the primary factor for maintaining their existence.
Perhaps some Heroic Spirits can manifest independently, but watching such frequent Noble Phantasm firings—especially that tear drop photon ray just now, which was like the Light of Heaven…
Let alone Fujimaru Ritsuka, even Chaldea couldn't support such terrifying magical energy consumption, right?
So what exactly is going on?
〜Type-Moon World, ???? Worldline〜
In the 7th singularity, Absolute Demonic Front: Babylonia—
"Hahahahahaha! Mongrels, use my magical energy with gratitude!"
The Wise King, Gilgamesh, let out a magical laugh that echoed throughout Uruk.

『 Third Singularity—The Grand Observatory of Time, presided over by the Nine Demon God Pillars who pursue all phenomena.
Appearing before Fujimaru and Mash were three giant ships filled with civilization and glory!
The Golden Hind, Queen Anne's Revenge, and the Argo!
In the endless sea of Okeanos, each of these three parties had a Berserker. However, Eric Bloodaxe on Blackbeard's side was different from Asterios and Heracles.
He hadn't completely lost his reason or ability to speak. On the contrary, it was just that his wife, Gunnhild, didn't like him having any contact with other women.
Even speaking a few words would result in retaliation.
So, to avoid making others uncomfortable and to avoid upsetting his wife, Eric had been feigning madness and stupidity.
After all, he is a Berserker! 』

『 Drake, Blackbeard, Atalante, and even Solomon's father, David, had arrived.
And on the Argo, a stuffed toy holding a wooden club was greatly disappointed to see that he had appeared in his bear form again!
The Third Singularity was one thing, but this was the Grand Time Temple with the Beast of Disaster!
Why couldn't he appear in his original form?! He is a Grand!
Orion lay on Artemis's head, making a huge fuss.
Artemis—a white figure with a peerlessly beautiful face and a voluptuous, explosive figure. She held a divine bow, and her bosom was so broad it seemed it could contain the entire world.
Artemis gently comforted her husband, but there was an illusion that she might shoot through him if they disagreed even slightly.
As the only normal person in the team, Atalante helplessly apologized to Fujimaru and Mash.
Among the teammates responsible for the observatory, there was a goddess who seemed like a love-struck brain, a Grand Hunter nerfed into the sewer, the Pirate Twins looking to jump ship, the unscrupulous old pervert Blackbeard, and the Riddler—Solomon's dad, David.
There was also Jason, who only knew how to fight disadvantageous battles. And because both the underage Medea and the adult Medea responded to Fujimaru Ritsuka, a world-famous painting was composed.
—Jason's Nightmare.
However, although he was scared to death, Jason still braced himself and opened up the path forward for Fujimaru Ritsuka.
It was just that without the disadvantageous situation, Jason at this moment was as limp and powerless as a salted fish. 』

〜Myriad Worlds livestream Chat〜
[ Shirai Kuroko (A Certain Magical Index): "…There are too many punchlines, I can't even retort to them all! Solomon's dad came to subjugate Solomon?! Child, it's all Davids outside, hurry up and hide!" ]
[ Jason (Type-Moon): "Aaaaaah! This is hell, right? Fujimaru, Mash, going into the painting counts as going, right?! Then I'm not going next time!" ]
[ Tohsaka Rin (Type-Moon): "Grand Archer… is a stuffed toy? And he looks like an old pervert?!" ]
[ Orion (Type-Moon): "Hey, hey, hey! I don't deny the stuffed toy part, but beautiful lady, I can't agree with you calling me an old pervert! How about this, let's have an in-depth conversation offline, let me properly…" ]
[ Artemis (Type-Moon): "Dar~ling! Do you want to die?~" ]
[ Cao Cao (High School DxD): "Such a beauty is actually the wife of a stuffed toy?! That means she's a married woman?! Brother Orion, I shall take care of your wife; you need not worry!" ]
[ Nobita Nobi (Doraemon): "A… stuffed toy can become a Grand too?! I feel like I can do it too!" ]
[ Merlin (Type-Moon): "Another Grand forced to be a salted fish~ Archer, Lancer, Assassin… what class is going to appear next?" ]
[ .....]
〜Doraemon World〜
Nobita extended his fingers and made "pew pew" shooting noises all around.
"Doraemon, say, if I were in that world, would I become a Grand? I feel like I could be a sharpshooter. A sharpshooter is also an Archer, right!"
"Cough, cough, cough!"
Doraemon, who had just eaten a dorayaki, almost choked to death.
It wasn't that he looked down on Nobita, but Nobita simply had no talent whatsoever, right?
Sharpshooter? They lived in a peaceful era.

"Senpai, even Jason-san is here!"
Mash exclaimed excitedly.
"Yeah, that's right."
Fujimaru Ritsuka nodded excitedly.
After all, they knew Jason's personality all too well. He was a weakling in favorable winds, but a God of War in headwinds.
Although they didn't want to find themselves in a disadvantageous situation, seeing him gave them an inexplicable sense of peace of mind.

『 When Fujimaru and Mash arrived at the Fourth Singularity.
The Control Singularity, responsible for managing and maintaining the final eight Demon God Pillars, was already engaged in battle with the Heroic Spirits!
A golden-haired figure clad in heavy armor wielded a holy sword, slaughtering amidst the flesh and blood. Mordred bathed heartily in the sea of blood.
Thunder swept across the Demon God Pillars on the ground, and the Pillars let out wails of agony. Mordred raised an eyebrow—was that Frankenstein?
No, it wasn't the artificial human from the London Singularity during her lifetime, but a Berserker already recorded by the Throne of Heroes, destined to fight alongside her in another world.
But Mordred didn't pay it any mind. With her straightforward personality, she continued to slay the Demon God Pillars, carving a path forward for Chaldea!
She didn't even realize when she had fallen into the Demon God Pillars' encirclement.
"…What a bunch of annoying guys!"
"In that case, I'll have to get serious!"
A look of impatience appeared on Mordred's blood-stained face. The holy sword in her hand erupted with terrifying light!
"CLARENT BLOOD ARTHUR—!"
⦍Rebellion Against My Beautiful Father⦎
The radiance of the holy sword crashed down, cleaving open a strip of flesh, but it was quickly reborn into an even larger Demon God Pillar!
Fujimaru and Mash also realized that the Demon God Pillars here seemed more terrifying than the previous ones; there were differences in strength among the Demon God Pillars, too! 』
『 .....』
〜Type-Moon World, Fate/Apocrypha Worldline〜
Mordred's face turned beet red instantly.
Usually, she didn't feel anything when unleashing her Noble Phantasm, but saying such a chuunibyou and rebellious line in front of everyone in the Myriad Worlds…
The originally gallant knight girl now buried her head deep like an ostrich.
If Father saw this… Ahhh, so shameful!

〜Genshin Impact World〜
Teyvat Continent—
"Rebellion Against My Beautiful Father…?! Great line!"
Paimon, the emergency food flying in the sky, shouted loudly!
"Rebellion Against the Yellow-Haired Traveler!"
Then, she launched a deathly boar rush against the yellow-haired Traveler beside her!

〜Type-Moon World, ????? Worldline, Chaldea〜
"If it's just this, it doesn't seem enough to suppress the Demon God Pillars here,"
Romani analyzed calmly.
Although it seemed Mordred and the other Heroic Spirits were suppressing the Demon God Pillars, the ones here were obviously stronger than before. Unless a…
Romani tried hard to recall which powerful existence was in the Fourth Singularity, but after thinking it over, only the King of Knights came to mind. But would she come to help them…?
Romani stared tightly at the screen but never saw that figure.
Fujimaru Ritsuka also sensed this. Although she didn't say anything, she couldn't help but feel a bit disappointed in her heart. After all, they were enemies with that King…
But in the next moment, the girl's eyes suddenly widened. A pitch-black, icy figure came into view. That was the King?!
—
『 Above the sea of stars, unnoticed by anyone, Tesla bowed respectfully. "Her Majesty the King has finally arrived."
Wielding the blood-red Holy Lance, riding the warhorse Llamrei, clad in pitch-black armor—a stunningly beautiful blonde lady, a figure like a Saint King, stepped across the sea of stars to arrive here.
King of Storms—Artoria Pendragon Alter!
Artoria's expression was icy, her aura terrifying. Last time, it was due to a chain summon with Mordred, and this time, it was based on Mordred plus her bond with Fujimaru Ritsuka.
"Aren't you going to see your daughter? King. Although she won't say it out loud, if you just say two sentences to her, she will definitely be very happy," Tesla asked curiously.
"No, forget it. I am merely 'me' who came here from the other side of possibility. I am a possibility occurring from a one-in-ten-thousand, one-in-a-hundred-million chance during the process of 'me' who held the Holy Lance gradually transforming into a Goddess."
"Maintaining my state, the possibility of picking up the lance, and the possibility occurring due to accepting the Grail's curse—I cannot escape the nature of the storm."
Artoria said no more. Instead, a violent hurricane suddenly whipped up in this world!
Terrifying magical energy spread through the air. In the next moment, a Holy Lance tens of thousands of meters long descended from the sea of stars—
The blood-red Holy Lance, carrying the nature of the storm, pierced through heaven and earth—
"RHONGOMYNIAD—!"
⦍The Lance That Shines to the End of the World⦎ 』
『 .....』
〜Type-Moon World, Fourth Holy Grail War Worldline〜
Einzbern Castle—
"That is… me?!"
Artoria looked at the figure on the screen, wielding the Holy Lance with her holy green eyes in disbelief.
She lowered her head again to look at herself, her eyes filled with confusion.
Emiya Kiritsugu didn't speak, but a strange look flashed in his eyes.
Is this Saber in another form? Exhale.
