Use FGO to open the second dimension

Esdeath relied on her sensing ability and knew that Reimu was at a disadvantage without even watching the battle on Reimu's side.

This is all due to Esdeath's own super perception ability.

Will the ability to sense danger accumulated through fighting countless dangerous creatures come in handy...

"Also, don't even think about asking your comrades to come up and help, otherwise they will be slaughtered by me. You should know that some heroic spirits are even more powerful than when they were alive, and I... am one of them. Although I don't have the bonus of the imperial capital now, the support of that cup is always there... The secret skills that I couldn't use continuously before... can now be used without restrictions..." Having said this, Esdeath revealed a dangerous smile.

Koizumi's heart sank. How could he still get support from the Holy Grail when he was not in the imperial capital?

The Holy Grail itself is equivalent to a highly concentrated mana furnace. The mana within is almost endless. Unlimited mana support means that a Noble Phantasm that previously consumed a lot of mana can now be used continuously. This is an exaggeration...

However, Koizumi had no intention of letting Mine and the others take action, after all, he was their leader.

When encountering an opponent of this level, he actually asked his subordinates to help take the bullets. What kind of leader is he!

"Don't worry, at least I don't intend to hand this battle over to anyone else... Letting them go when you know they can't win is typical irresponsible behavior. I'm not that shameless... Besides..."

Having said this, Koizumi paused for a moment, pointing the tip of Gungnir in his hand directly at Esdeath.

"I also want to see how far I can go in a fight with you, without the Imperial Capital's power-ups... I've had enough of the pain of being slaughtered... I don't have the confidence to kill you, but I must stop you here, even if it means risking my life..."

As he said this, Koizumi unleashed all the magic power in his body, not holding back at all.

A pair of scarlet eyes stared at Esdeath in front of them, with no intention of letting go of any of her moves.

Feeling the incoming gusts of air, Esdeath's mouth curled up slightly. That's right, this is how it should be done. This kind of battle makes people excited. Even if the opponent is not as strong as herself, he will still fight with her at the risk of his life. This is fun!

but--

Esdeath's wish to have a proper fight with Koizumi was doomed to fail, because—

The next moment, the sky was covered by a thick red fog, and even the sun was completely obscured.

"This is--"

The battle between Reimu and the female servant suddenly stopped. Reimu looked at the sky in astonishment, with a hint of surprise in her eyes. Isn't this the red mist released by the vampire when the red mist mutated?

Esdeath frowned slightly, while Koizumi's face was filled with ecstasy, the power of the [Vampire] in his body surging.

This aura... there's no doubt about it... it's her...

"Well said... I am your servant... But daring to die without your master's permission is not worthy of praise. Remember the punishment for now, and we will discuss it after this battle is over..."

The sound echoed in the sky, and slowly, a petite figure with a pair of huge scarlet devil wings on its back slowly landed in front of Koizumi. The familiar face made Koizumi show a hint of excitement.

The petite figure's pair of scarlet eyes locked onto Esdeath in front of her, and a cold smile appeared at the corner of her mouth.

"It's you... the arrogant fellow who dared to train my servants without my consent... The Queen of the Night—Remlia Scarlet—comes to seek justice for my servants!"

Chapter 186 Minamoto no Raikou

Remlia's appearance surprised Reimu, but of course, she was also delighted at the same time.

Since Remlia appeared here, it meant that she had fully recovered and was now ready to fight.

Even Reimu had to admit that Remlia's fighting ability was not the best in Gensokyo, but it was definitely in the upper middle level. Compared with Remlia, it was hard to say who was stronger since she was not in Gensokyo.

Therefore, Remlia's arrival can save him a lot of effort, at least many battles can be done by her.

The vampire finally made the move... However... after sensing another powerful aura coming from Koizumi, Reimu roughly deduced the reason why Remlia came, and it seemed like they had no choice but to take action.

Just by guessing the owner of this powerful aura, you can know who he is.

Apart from Esdeath, there seemed to be no one else. After all, it was impossible for General Bud to be the powerful servant appearing on the western border. So, there could only be someone who was as famous as General Bud and was known as the strongest member of this empire.

It just so happened that that person had challenged the female servant in front of him before, so it seemed normal for him to appear here.

"Is this Esdeath's aura? She's truly powerful, living up to her reputation... Seems even stronger than that Bud... And that's before we're even in the Imperial Capital. Master said her strength is boosted in the Imperial Capital... Such terrifying combat power, can that [Vampire] handle it? Even though she's blocked the sun with red mist, her strength..."

It’s not that Reimu underestimates Remlia, but Reimu is very clear about Remlia’s strength and seems to be no match for her.

If they join forces with me, then holding them back shouldn't be a problem... After all, I'm not weak either.

But I still have an enemy to deal with... I really don't have the time to split myself up to deal with a second enemy. It would be great if I could split myself... Or if I could have a different class of myself appear here, that would save a lot of trouble too...

The female servant frowned as she looked at the red mist in the sky, and a sense of impetuousness emerged in her heart.

"The aura of a demon... Compared to the previous Master's aura, it's an even purer demon aura... If that Master's aura was mixed with human elements, then this one is completely like a demonic existence. However, this aura... is it a demon Servant?"

The female servant seemed to be very familiar with the breath of the demon species. She had already sensed the other party's breath the moment the red mist appeared. This level of sensitivity was truly amazing.

Then, the female servant turned her gaze to Reimu in front of her, with a pair of eyes flashing with deep doubt. It seemed that she knew the guy who created this red fog. When did the priestess get so close to the evil spirit?

For this female servant, although she does not hate all ghosts, she still hates those ghosts that harm the human world. Without knowing the other party's true nature, she can't say anything.

By the way, the reason why the female Servant attacked Koizumi before was actually because Koizumi was about to approach this village. This village was like a treasure to this female Servant. The children in the village were like her sons and daughters. How could she possibly allow Koizumi to enter this village?

It's not that she discriminates against these so-called "ghosts", but their existence itself is a trouble. She doesn't want her children to be involved in any trouble. This is an extreme desire to protect them.

Moreover, the ghost approached her children, interacted with them, and developed a close relationship with them... This reminded her of some very unpleasant things in her life, because similar things had happened before...

Back to the point, the female Servant could sense that in addition to the [ghost] in that direction, there was another existence that made her feel a little concerned... That person had found her before and fought with her, but...

The female servant frowned slightly, a sense of danger filling her heart. The other party's aura was different from before, its momentum became stronger, and its presence became unusually strong... At least she could feel the other party's aura even when she was standing here.

If before it was just humans mixed with some of the Servant's aura, now it's the Servant mixed with some of the human aura... Now Esdeath... is simply a pure Servant...

"It's really weird..."

The female Servant muttered to herself, a gleam of light flickering in her eyes. She no longer had the heart to fight Reimu...

During battle, a warrior can sense the other person's heart through their skills. Although Reimu is not a pure warrior, she can still sense it from the other person's strength. This is a very good child...

Although this child carries certain responsibilities, he is still a little immature. I believe that with proper training, he will grow up to be a child capable of shouldering great responsibilities...

Slowly stepping forward, a gentle smile appeared on the woman's face. The awe-inspiring demeanor she had in the previous battle had disappeared, replaced by a temperament like a Yamato Nadeshiko.

As I've said before, the woman before me is like the ultimate Yamato Nadeshiko...

"Could you please tell me your name, Excellency?... Don't worry, I no longer have the desire to fight. Besides, aren't there even stronger opponents waiting for us?"

Faced with a dangerous guy like Esdeath, even the woman in front of her must admit that the other party is more dangerous than this group of people, so she should do what she should do.

Besides, she has already accepted Reimu as a person, so she will not attack Reimu again. In fact, most of her previous attacks were out of excitement.

You know, the woman in front of you also has the attribute of a warrior. It is normal for her to want to fight when she sees a strong person.

Reimu frowned slightly, then glanced at the wound on her hand and couldn't help but curl her lips. Forget it, just consider it a lesson. Who asked her to fight with such a strong man?

"Hakurei Reimu, the Hakurei shrine maiden. By the way, it's normal that you haven't heard of me. I'm in a place that is both beloved by the gods and forgotten by them... So there's no need to ask why you haven't heard of my name..."

In order to prevent the other party from suddenly asking about her real name, Reimu explained it in advance. After all, most people in Gensokyo have prototypes, but Hakurei Reimu does not. She only exists as a shrine maiden in Gensokyo.

The female servant frowned slightly. If she was forgotten by the gods, then she should not exist in any records. That means she did not exist in the realm record tape. Then, was it really possible for such a being to be summoned as a Heroic Spirit?

Reimu didn't care what the other person was thinking at the moment. What she cared more about was...what was the real name of this servant?

"Hey! What's your real name? I sense a familiar aura coming from you... It might be related to someone I know... My intuition is always pretty accurate..."

As she said this, Reimu fixed her eyes on the other person, and looked at him carefully for a few times. This aura... was somewhat similar to Ushiwakamaru's... Was he from Genji?

The female servant raised the corners of her mouth slightly, and slowly sheathed the sword in her hand. In just the moment of sheathing the sword, Reimu also sensed a sharp breath.

"My name is Minamoto no Raikou, but I am just an immature leader!"

The woman in front of her seemed unaware of how shocking her words were, which made Reimu slightly stunned, not knowing what expression to use to deal with it.

However, the moment the other party said the name Minamoto no Raikou, the first thought that came to Reimu's mind was -

Minamoto no Raikou? The Minamoto no Raikou who had chopped off Suika's head?

Chapter 187 The battle begins

Looking at the petite girl in front of her, Esdeath had no intention of underestimating her. She could feel an extraordinary power from her body. Although the power on the surface might not be comparable to her own, the power contained in her body made Esdeath fear.

Esdeath stared at the other person with her ice-blue eyes. After a while of scrutiny, her gaze turned to Koizumi behind the other person, as if she had noticed something very interesting.

Slowly, a smile appeared on Esdeath's lips. There was a strong sense of teasing in that smile, but this made Remlia feel unhappy.

I always feel that this guy is thinking about something too extreme, which makes people feel very uncomfortable. Remlia has now begun to imagine herself punching the other person in the face.

As for why she chose to use her imagination, it was because Remlia knew that she probably would not be able to defeat the opponent in a head-on battle. After all, the opponent had the support of the Holy Grail, and the opponent was also the strongest in the world. The gap between her and the opponent was still a bit big.

Originally, due to the limitations of the world, if one's real body ran into the other's world, one would be able to kill the other. However, now they are in the same worldview, both parties are summoned as servants, and the other party is the strongest in that world, so this actually causes the other party's strength to surpass one's own.

What's more, the opponent now has the support of the Holy Grail and almost infinite magic power, so I may not be able to defeat him.

So in desperation, Remlia could only choose to imagine in her mind the situation of the other party being beaten madly by her, so that she could satisfy herself.

"The power in that boy's body belongs to you, right? A power similar to the power in your body? It seems to be a race called [Vampires]. Am I right?"

Remlia was slightly startled by Esdeath's words, but she quickly realized that she was being spoken to. Was it strange that Koizumi was using his own power?

Remlia couldn't help but glance at Koizumi behind her. Well, such a bizarre contract is really unique in the world. This kind of contract is probably what most Masters hope to have.

While contracting a Servant, a copy of the Servant's power is also passed on to the Master. This kind of bizarre contract is what most Masters would like to have, but Koizumi doesn't show much desire for it.

Koizumi wanted this power simply because he didn't want to cause trouble for Reimu and everyone else, so he had been training his strength desperately. Moreover, copying a copy didn't mean he had mastered it completely. How much he could master depended on the user's aptitude.

Gu Quan's talent is average, but he is driven by his own fighting spirit, so the power he possesses now is so extraordinary.

Remlia nodded slowly, not intending to hide the matter at all. After all, she knew exactly what had happened during this period. Although she didn't know about the dream world, Yakumo Yukari said that the singularity was closely related to the dream world. Koizumi also explained to Reimu what happened in his dream world. Although Remlia was not by Koizumi's side at the time, she was peeping at this scene through the gap of Yakumo Yukari... Although Remlia used to hate Yakumo Yukari's peeping behavior, it seems that she has been led astray by her recently.

"Although the power of my servants comes from me, it's actually due to the contract between us. The contract will return a portion of power to the contractor... So far, it seems that my servants are doing quite well... barely qualified..."

In fact, it was not just a barely qualified answer, but a perfect one. After all, Remlia saw how hard Koizumi was trying, but it was still a long way to go for Remlia to completely accept Koizumi.

Remlia herself is a bit of a tsundere type, so it is very difficult for her to admit it completely.

As she said this, Remlia glanced at Koizumi beside her, the corners of her mouth slightly raised, and her pair of scarlet eyes were filled with deep admiration.

Although he is a temporary servant, as a temporary servant, the one in front of him can be considered very qualified. After Sakuya is summoned, he will be accepted completely and let Sakuya train him well.

"Then...it's time to fight...let me chop off your head and kick it like a ball!"

As soon as she finished speaking, a scarlet spear emerged from Remlia's hand. Its name was - [Gungnir]!

Although it was the same spear that Koizumi had gathered, the energy Esdeath felt from it was completely different. If classified by level, Koizumi's Gungnir would be at best C-level, while Remlia's had already reached A-level, and even had a plus sign at the end.

After Gu Quan increased the magic power in his body to the extreme, he was able to hurt Qin Xin in the battle with him. If it were Remlia, she would not need to use her full strength to defeat Qin Xin, because the difference in strength between the two was really huge.

Although Remlia admitted that she might not be the opponent's opponent, she would never admit defeat in verbal combat, because it was related to her face as the King of the Night.

Upon hearing this, Esdeath revealed a dangerous smile, her eyes completely locked onto Remlia, a gleam of light flashed in her eyes, and the sword in her hand glowed with a cold light that made people shudder.

"You said...you want to chop off my head and kick it like a ball?"

If the person who said this was a small fry that could be found everywhere, and if the other person just said this out of a momentary interest, Esdeath would definitely let the other person know her authority as the strongest in the empire.

But the person who said this was a very powerful guy, and he had a power that made him afraid. Maybe he couldn't bring out this power, but -

Interesting... Really interesting, it looks like a battle that will excite me!

"Then let's give it a try! See if you can really chop my head off!"

In the blink of an eye, Esdeath's figure disappeared from sight. The only thing that remained in this space was the sonic boom that lingered for a long time.

Remlia showed a cruel smile, and a huge amount of magic power burst out from her body. I forgot to mention that if Esdeath was supported by an almost inexhaustible source of magic power, then Remlia was actually the same.

Because Koizumi alone supports the mana supply of several Servants, and no problems have occurred so far, this also proves one thing, that is - Koizumi is equivalent to a source of mana that is almost inexhaustible.

"You're not the only one who can fire a Noble Phantasm continuously!"

In just a blink of an eye, Remlia disappeared in front of everyone with a sonic boom.

I almost forgot to mention that Remlia's strength is limited during the day, but now that the sun is blocked, Remlia can exert her full strength - her agility value is A++.

Among the servants, there are only a few who can keep up with Remlia in terms of agility.

With her speed, she can easily keep up with the opponent and quickly counterattack.

The battle begins now!

Chapter 188 Apology

A strong wave of energy erupted between the two of them in a matter of moments. Koizumi's eyes were fixed on that direction, and endless worry emerged in them. There was nothing he could do. Koizumi knew Esdeath's strength very well, and he also knew Remlia's strength very well. It was precisely because of this that Koizumi was worried that Remlia would get hurt.

Although this may seem a bit like a bootlicker, Koizumi truly sees himself as Remlia's servant.

There's nothing shameful about this. After all, if it weren't for Remlia, Koizumi would have died in Fuyuki.

A drop of kindness should be repaid with a spring, not to mention that Remlia saved his life.

Therefore, Koizumi has an inexplicable dependence on Remlia. Actually, it can't be said to be dependence, but it is more of concern.

Koizumi treats everyone else in Gensokyo like this, including Reimu, Qin Xin, Doremi, and Yukari.

It’s just that the expression of each person’s relationship is slightly different, that’s all.
