Anime Crossover: Master is Not Here Today

While they were chatting, the situation on the battlefield began to change.

"You guy...!"

Luos's image was completely different from his initial dashing appearance. At this moment, he had been beaten black and blue by Andromeda, and was covered in injuries, looking extremely disheveled.

At the same time, the string of 'reason' that had been suppressed in his mind for a long time finally reached the point of collapse.

"—Enough!!"

He glared fiercely at Andromeda and roared:

"I've had enough of you! You imposter who popped up out of nowhere, just behave yourself!"

"what?!"

Andromeda glared angrily, but Luos was no longer willing to compromise. He reached up and ripped the necklace off his neck, shouting menacingly:

"Awaken, Demon King of Arger—!!"

As the words fell, the gifts in her hands began to radiate light, their intensity fluctuating as they broke free of their seals one by one. Finally, the light turned brown, and a sharp female voice echoed throughout the entire game's base—

"GEEEEEEEEEEYAAAAAAAAAaaaaaaaaaa!!!"

Accompanied by a piercing, manic scream, the woman who appeared before everyone was covered in restraints and straitjackets, her disheveled gray hair standing on end, making her look like a terrifying demon king who had been unsealed.

Upon seeing this, Black Rabbit's expression immediately changed, and she cried out in alarm:

"That's the Protoss Argol! A Protoss Demon, just like Lord White Demon...!!"

The Greek word 'Argir' is derived from Ras Argir, meaning a star with the connotation of "devil's head." It is also the star located in the constellation Perseus, in the position of "Gorgon's Head."

She is a great demon bearing the name of a planet, a member of the strongest race in the Little Garden—the Protoss, and the ace of [Perseus]!

"Argel, petrify her!"

“GEEEYAAaaa——!”

With a command from Luos, Arger let out a piercing scream and released a brown light that rushed toward Andromeda at an extremely fast speed!

However, just as the petrifying light was about to touch Andromeda, a dark figure wielding a shield suddenly appeared and blocked her path. The petrifying light collided with the shield, successfully blocking the petrifying light to the astonishment of the crowd.

"what?"

Seeing this unbelievable scene, Luos looked at the dark figure blocking Andromeda's path and murmured incredulously:

"The gift of petrification...? And what is that thing?!"

Outside the battlefield, Izayoi Sakamaki turned to Kuro Usagi and asked:

"That petrifying ability shouldn't be something an ordinary shield can withstand, right?"

"Of course, that's a radiant light that can even petrify the heavens and earth; an ordinary shield would only be petrified too!"

Black Rabbit nodded in affirmation, feeling equally surprised.

However, if we're talking about a shield that can prevent petrification, there happens to be such a shield in the myth of Perseus's conquest of Medusa—the shield given to Perseus by the goddess Athena.

Unfortunately, this shield, which originally belonged to [Perseus], ​​seems to have been lost in the miniature garden.

"Is everything okay?"

Hearing Fujimaru Ritsuka's concerned voice, Andromeda belatedly nodded and said:

"Oh, I'm fine, thank you."

The spirit form that Fujimaru Ritsuka summoned to block the petrification attack was Medusa, a Saber-class spirit form that had somehow incorporated Athena's factor, wore Athena's armor, and held Athena's shield.

Although it's unclear why Medusa always seems to be caught in these hellish, farcical situations, it must be said that the other party is indeed very effective in such circumstances.

At the same time, Andromeda looked at Argel again and murmured:

"Is that Medusa over here?"

"It should be about the same."

They didn't know about the Protoss Alger that Black Rabbit mentioned, but they were very familiar with Medusa.

Andromeda exclaimed in surprise:

"It even retains a complete body... but its appearance is far inferior to those from our area."

Fujimaru Ritsuka, with a black line on her forehead, said:

"Isn't now the time to discuss this?"

"Ah, sorry, sorry! But, shall I deal with her...?"

As everyone knows, killing Medusa was the greatest achievement of her husband Perseus's life, and now that she has to face her, Andromeda can't help but feel uneasy.

Can she really do it?

Meanwhile, looking at Argel's figure, Fujimaru Ritsuka seemed to be deep in thought, feeling that this battle might be a good opportunity.

Then she smiled at Andromeda:

"It'll be fine, I'll defeat her with you!"

"Ritsuka..."

Seeing the ever-present smile on Fujimaru Ritsuka's face, Andromeda's heart instantly calmed down, and he felt as if endless power was surging within him.

Yes, even if she doesn't believe in herself, she should believe in Fujimaru Ritsuka.

As long as Ritsuka is there, there will definitely be no problem.

After all, Ritsuka is someone all the Servants of Chaldea are proud of; she is the strongest Master in history, unprecedented and unparalleled!

Then she smiled brightly again and nodded emphatically:

"...Yes, I'll do my best!"

"very good."

Fujimaru Ritsuka smiled and said:

"Then the operation begins. Next—"

"Back off!"

The moment the words left her lips, Fujimaru Ritsuka forcefully pushed Andromeda away. The instant the two separated, Argel, who had been rushing towards them, descended from the sky and crashed down heavily!

"Bam—!"
