Zouken Matou looked triumphantly at the black mud pool as blood was being poured in and said.
"Hohoho, I really must thank Tohsaka Rin. It was she who let me know of your existence, Holy Maiden. Emiya and I have been preparing for this plan for seven years. Now it's up to you, Holy Maiden!"
Shortly after the Fourth Holy Grail War ended, when Sakura accidentally asked about Servant information, Rin blurted out most of the information she knew to Sakura. Later, Sakura, who became friends with Shinji, also shared most of what Rin had said when Shinji accidentally mentioned Servants.
And it was through Shinji that Zouken Matou learned of Jalter's existence. With Kiritsugu Emiya's help, he had assassinated a large number of ordinary people and French people with magical potential over the years, hoarding a large amount of blood containing magical energy. Now, as this blood was injected into the black mud, the materials for Jalter's Dragon Legion were ready.
"Hohoho, please, Holy Maiden!"
Jalter looked at the black mud containing a large amount of magical and life energy and nodded with satisfaction. She then raised her war banner and called out continuously, her deafening roars echoing through the sewer.
"Come! My Dragon Legion!"
"Roar!"
On the other side of the monitor, Kiritsugu Emiya watched the Wyverns crawling out of the black mud pool and roaring. He silently lit a cigarette and then pressed the detonator, blowing open the ground above the black mud pool.
"Assassin, let's go. Let's seize the lesser grail!"
At the Fuyuki City Church, Narbaleck calmly held a teacup and glanced at Ciel, who had an anxious expression on her face.
"No need to worry, Ciel. Those Magi are all third-rate; they won't cause any real impact."
"But Leader, our comrades are being attacked by Magi! Please let me go out!"
Meilian Solomon, who was constantly fooling around with Fujimura Taiga nearby, now held Fujimura Taiga's head with one hand while pulling and stretching her face with the other.
"Ciel, you need to stay calm."
"You brat, let go of me!"
Meilian Solomon was stunned by Fujimura Taiga's voice, then turned back, released her head, and used both hands to pull at her cheeks.
Fujimura Taiga, whose face was already swollen, refused to be outdone; she also reached out and grabbed Meilian Solomon's cheeks, pulling them outward with force.
Outside the Church, the Magi who had received Lorelei's orders were gathered, launching continuous attacks. Litz easily led the Agents and Knights to clash with the Magi.
"Fools who aren't afraid of death!"
With a casual punch, she sent a Magus flying who had activated Reinforcement Magic to engage her in melee, then yawned out of boredom as she watched the chaotic battle.
In fact, most of the Magi held a perfunctory attitude toward Lorelei's orders, which could be easily seen from their held-back attacks. Naturally, the Church had no intention of having a real life-and-death decisive battle here either, so they were also fighting the Magi with a perfunctory attitude.
After dealing with a few hotheads from the Magi's side, Litz felt extremely bored. She handed over command to her deputy, found a large broken rock to sit on, and watched this utterly fake battle.
Suddenly, the roar of a beast echoed across the battlefield.
Both sides stopped fighting in unison and looked up at the sky. Several Wyverns had appeared, circling above the battlefield. Having just been created, their stomachs were empty; seeing the gathered 'food' carrying magical energy, they couldn't wait and flew down, intending to have a feast.
"Wyverns!"
The Magi and Church personnel below cried out in surprise, then unhesitatingly launched attacks at these legendary beasts.
The Wyverns, seeing that the 'food' actually dared to resist, roared in anger and began to attack the crowd on the ground.
Litz watched the Wyverns diving toward the ground, quickly stood up, lifted the rock she had been sitting on, and threw it with all her might.
"Organize the formation! Don't give them an opening!"
Some Wyverns were shot down by the Magi and Church personnel, while others snatched up unlucky souls and ascended into the sky, opening their bloody maws to devour their flesh.
As Jalter continued to create more Wyverns, an increasing number appeared in the sky over Fuyuki City, beginning their diving attacks on humans.
"Damn it, how can there be so many Wyverns! Where did these things come from!"
Litz, having organized the Church personnel, looked up at the Wyverns in the sky with displeasure.
Suddenly, with a loud boom, a giant monster—a hybrid of a dolphin, whale, and bat—flew into the sky from the Church courtyard. It was the demon formed from Meilian Solomon's left leg, the King of the Sky.
The massive King of the Sky soared up, nimbly reaching the Wyverns and opening its long snout to bite a group of them in half. Seeing the King of the Sky, the Magi began an orderly retreat under the direction of their leaders.
At the same time, the Puppet Legions stationed throughout Fuyuki City began to attack the dragon swarms in the sky under Touko's orders.
The puppets' arms shifted and transformed into cylinders, firing a continuous barrage of Magic Bullets into the sky.
The attacked Wyverns quickly retaliated, some diving down to engage in fierce combat with the puppets, while others flapped their giant wings to create wind blades.
Touko, along with Aoko, Alice, Sakura, and Fujino, arrived at the seaside by car.
Upon reaching the shore, Touko's group ran right into the Matou faction emerging from the sewers, and both sides watched each other warily.
Touko turned her head and signaled to Alice, then casually opened her suitcase.
"It seems these guys are the targets!"
A flat black cat made of shadows—larger than Touko and lacking thickness—emerged. Though it looked like a cat, it was a strange creature consisting mostly of a mouth. It emerged from Touko's suitcase and roared at Zouken Matou's group.
Aoko took the lead, rushing out from Touko's side and firing Magic Bullets at Saber Alter, drawing her away into the distance.
"I'll handle this one, you guys be careful!"
Fujino instantly entered her Servant state. A rainbow light flashed in her eyes as a massive twisting force enveloped Kiritsugu Emiya and Assassin.
Assassin quickly picked up Kiritsugu Emiya to dodge the strike, then placed him on the beach before drawing weapons to engage Fujino in a fierce fight.
