Abnormal Moon

It seems completely illogical no matter how you look at it.

Not everyone can isolate themselves from the interference of inhibitory forces.

Even if the suppressive force didn't react at first, it took a year from the appearance of the black mud to its spread throughout the world, and another year for the world to burn. A full two years was enough time for the suppressive force to take countermeasures.

As a result, the world has still turned into this decaying and wretched state.

Red A paused, his whole body stiffening.

Roy's words were like a sledgehammer that jolted him awake.

He had just been summoned and was still in shock at the state of the world, not having had time to think about its deeper meaning. It was only now that he came to his senses.

Rin Tohsaka's expression became more serious than ever before.

"As the guardian of the human side, you should be able to grasp some of Alaya's thoughts, right? Calling them thoughts is a bit strange, but that's the gist of it... What are your thoughts? What are the Counter Force's thoughts, and what is your opinion?"

Roy asked a pointed question.

This is the question he wants to verify.

The inhibitory force could have prevented it, but it didn't do so at all.

The state of neglect has led to the way it is now.

Preventing the destruction of humanity is necessary for Alaya, but unnecessary for Gaia in its current state, so the restraining force seems to have disappeared.

"……I have no idea."

Red A's expression was inscrutable.

He was just an employee, and his boss was a collection of ideas that made communication impossible; he was the kind of person who would just unilaterally issue targets.

What can he do?

He is also very helpless!

"There's nothing we can do about it."

Roy was somewhat disappointed.

But this reaction was exactly what he had expected.

After all, even Aozaki Touko couldn't find the answer to this question after searching for ten years.

The problem now is—

Is the destruction of humanity part of the Counterforce's plan?

Or perhaps, the inhibitory force is also hampered by something?

No matter how you look at it, it's a possibility that inspires despair.

Regardless, the catastrophe that occurred ten years ago clearly still contains many mysteries.

"We've arrived at the territory of the corrupted Caster."

At the foot of the small hill, a group of four people arrived at this place.

What came into view was a vast expanse of ocean monsters, seemingly covering the entire landscape.

Not only are they disgusting in appearance, but their numbers are also astonishing, probably more than a thousand. Perhaps all the sea monsters summoned in the past ten years are here.

One glance at it and anyone with trypophobia would faint.

"This number is very bad!"

Red A looked extremely serious.

At the same time, Rin Tohsaka's loud shouts from behind him, "You little Archer, how dare you lie to me!" and "You just wait, I'll deal with you when we get back!" gave him quite a headache.

If he had known that Shirou Emiya didn't exist in this world, he wouldn't have pretended!

Chapter 42 The power of the evil eye

"Master, there are far too many of these sea monsters!"

Okita Souji stepped forward, shielding Roy behind her, a hint of fierceness appearing on her pretty face.

"How do we get past them and defeat the corrupted Caster?"

Or should we use her third Noble Phantasm?

She made the suggestion to Roy in her mind.

Miss Okita has a total of three Noble Phantasms.

Her first Noble Phantasm is her ultimate demonic sword, the Nameless Three-Stage Thrust, which possesses the power of "Phenomenon Collapse".

Her second Noble Phantasm is her haori, named "Oath of the Haori," which is the result of the Shinsengumi's famous attire being elevated into a Noble Phantasm.

When she equips this haori, her stats will be boosted to a certain extent, and her weapon will be upgraded from "Kaga Kiyomitsu" in real history to "Kikuichimonji Norimune," a weapon with eight hundred years of mystery that was later used as her weapon.

This Noble Phantasm is a constantly activated type, and it is currently being equipped and activated. With the support of her Master's massive magical power, she is able to fight against a first-rate Heroic Spirit.

Her third Noble Phantasm, which is also her true trump card, is called "The Banner of Sincerity".

That's a Rank B anti-military Noble Phantasm. Unfurling this banner allows you to summon members of the Shinsengumi, including Kondo Isami, Yamanami Keisuke, and Hijikata Toshizo, within a certain range.

Although none of the summoned Shinsengumi members possessed Noble Phantasms and their strength was significantly different, the good thing was that each of them was an independent Servant with independent combat capabilities equivalent to E-rank solo skills, allowing them to fight even without a Master for a short period of time.

There were only a few hundred people.

But it's sufficient for this situation.

"These sea monsters are of average strength, relying only on numbers. If I unleash my Noble Phantasm, the more than one hundred Shinsengumi swordsmen will definitely be able to carve a bloody path for my Master!"

Okita Souji confidently began reading aloud.

"What do you think?"

Roy stroked his chin, a thoughtful expression on his face.

He didn't give an answer immediately, but instead looked at Gong Lin and the other person.

"Your Saber looks like a modern samurai, so it's normal that she can't unleash wide-range attacks like beam cannons."

Rin Tohsaka covered her mouth and smiled, feeling a sense of accomplishment as if she had won a round.

"Archer, how much effort will it take you to clear this hilltop?"

"Yes, I'm fine with large-scale attacks."

Red A thought for a moment and nodded decisively.

"However, there are quite a few sea monsters, which may consume a lot of the Master's magic power. In that case, we can only hunt one corrupted Servant at most tonight."

Okita Souji puffed out his cheeks.

Resentful and dissatisfied.

So what if it can't fire the light beam?

The swordsman can't unleash his beam attack, did he eat your rice?

"A swordsman should fight with the sword in his hand!"

"Yes, yes, I didn't mean to look down on you, hehehehe!"

Rin Tohsaka looked at Souji Okita with a smug grin, like a villain.

"Mmm, mmm!"

Okita Souji gritted his teeth.

"In that case, let me do it!"

Roy shook his head and sighed, then stepped forward.

"Huh? What are you going to do?"

Rin Tohsaka was stunned by his words and stared at him in astonishment.

"Watch it!"

Roy curled the corners of his mouth slightly.

On this battlefield, a casual and carefree smile appeared on his face.

It was as if they didn't take the countless sea monsters seriously at all.

"Red A, could you please shoot an arrow into the mountains to lure out the corrupted Caster?"

"I'm not your servant!"

Red A turned around, crossed his arms, and looked up at the sky.

And who the hell is called Red A?!

"I've been so polite in pleading with you, and you still won't agree. How can you be so rude? Did you not have a father to teach you, or a mother to raise you?"

Hard!

The fist is hard!
