They've already fought their way through the Holy Grail War, and you still call them dragons?

Just when he was wondering, a familiar figure riding an eight-legged Pegasus appeared out of thin air, then waves splashed on the water surface and Odin flew out of the water.

"Sir!" The two men immediately became serious and respectful. "What you have instructed us to do has already been done..."

Odin ignored them and just grabbed the test tube, then rode his eight-legged Pegasus away as if he was running for his life.

Helver, Orluun: "?"

The two looked at Odin walking away with confused expressions, and then looked at each other.

Is he really that angry? He just walked away without saying a word. What on earth is going on in this boss's mind? Why is he so difficult to please?

"Look! What's that in the sky?"

"Is it a shooting star? How about making a wish?"

"No, this direction seems to be——!"

They noticed that in the sky on the other side, a bright stream of light was streaking across the sky at an extremely fast speed, and landed exactly in the direction where Odin had left - the Kanto Mountains, and the moment it hit the ground it caused a magnificent super explosion and a strong earthquake.

Rumble!

The strong shock shook the earth and made people's entire vision shake violently. Fortunately, the two of them were in an open area and would not face any dangerous situation.

After the tremors subsided, Helweier slowly stood up and couldn't help asking, "Hiss... Is our boss okay?"

Orluen clasped her hands together, "I hope everyone is alright."

Otherwise they would become unemployed.

Chapter 251 The Man Who Devoured Gods

The rushing air currents howled and roared in the sky, and the golden and blue-purple colors dyed the surroundings brilliantly. The scorching flames and dense thunder played a chapter of destruction in the storm that gradually swept across half of the ocean.

The battle between the incarnated gods and the real gods has now reached its final stage.

There are no longer any bystanders who can glimpse the outcome of this ultimate showdown.

“…This is the final blow.”

After shooting the last sword, Emiya released the huge longbow in his hand. After it left his hand, the longbow turned back into magic power and dissipated in the sky where the wind was howling.

However, as the "Indra's Arrow" flew out of his hand and shot towards Ibuki Douji, Emiya gradually felt the originally abundant energy in his body gradually become disordered.

The power of the Susanoo spirit, which was originally created on the spur of the moment, began to dissipate.

His face turned pale instantly.

"hiss……!"

The feeling of great power filling his body, making all things in nature submit to his power with every move, began to fade, as if it was an illusion in a dream.

Even the fatigue and pain accumulated in the previous battle with the false god Izanami began to reappear.

This was only natural. To achieve this decisive victory, Emiya had already drawn nearly all of his divine power. Since he wasn't a divine being himself, he couldn't recover. His strength and condition would slowly decline from divine level.

"...But this can't go on."

When Emiya saw Indra's arrow being blocked by Ibuki Douji's Ame Murakumo sword and a fierce confrontation broke out between them, he knew that he could not rely on it to deliver the final blow that would decide the outcome.

With just this one strike, he could only barely hold his own against Ibuki Douji for a short period of time, and perhaps hinder the opponent's further actions, but he could not achieve the victory he wanted.

Emiya reached out and gently stroked the broad back of the giant dragon beneath him. The densely arranged scales on the smooth dragon's back surged with magical light.

So, please, Melyuzina!

From the very beginning, this battle was not a simple one-on-one, but a "side-by-side battle" between him and Melyusina.

Ibuki Douji may have thought that Melyusina was simply here to be his mount and help him in flying combat, but in fact, Melyusina, transformed into an adult dragon, was enough to become the last weight on the scales that could turn the tide of the battle at the critical moment.

However, Melyuchina has never shown this to Ibuki Douji since she appeared. The other party seemed to be immersed in the joy and excitement of fighting with his old enemy and subconsciously ignored this point.

"..." The giant dragon with a graceful flying posture blinked and immediately understood.

Her eyes revealed excitement, especially when she looked at the "big robot" operated by Emiya, the look in her eyes suddenly became brighter.

Melyuchina couldn't help but reveal her envy of Emiya's Susanoo mecha power.

If she didn't need to take on the flying function, she would have wanted Emiya to speak up and invite her to drive this Susanoo mecha together.

Gulp gulp...!

Melyuchina's gigantic dragon body rapidly stirred up a massive amount of magical energy. The dragon core in her body, which was even larger than Emiya's, produced terrifying magic power with astonishing efficiency.

This profound foundation emanated from her huge dragon body, revealing a "dragon spirit" similar to that of a god, but slightly different.

The lines and scales on her body also began to emit azure or silver light, which flickered regularly with the beating of the dragon's furnace core. Her whole body looked like a huge camouflaged, pure, shimmering dreamy light and shadow.

This is the true appearance of a pure dragon. A true dragon, capable of rivaling even gods.

In the dusk sky, like the cry of a newborn baby, an innocent beating that no one knows about!

"——!" Finally, this vast magic power turned into unparalleled dragon flames and was released from Melyuchina's dragon head. No, it was no longer a simple breath, but a giant magic cannon that continued to expand after being emitted!

A torrent of magic power cut through the sky, easily tearing apart the chaotic flames and thunder. The atmosphere roared violently, and under the illumination of the magic cannon, everything seemed a little dim.

"Ok?"

Ibuki Douji, who was immersed in the confrontation between the true and false Noble Phantasm, Ama Murakumo Sword, raised his head.

She laughed softly.

"So that's how it is. The real killer move isn't the frontal strike, but the subsequent coordination with allies? Is this the human way of fighting, different from the gods'?"

Dangerous golden light flickered around her, which was the sharp edge of the Ame Murakumo sword. At this time, if Ibuki Douji gave up the resistance of the Noble Phantasm and retreated to avoid the dilemma or even the defeat.

But Ibuki Douji refused to do so. She still insisted on facing it head-on.

The battle with her old enemy had reached a critical moment. If she retreated like this, it would be like her Ame no Murakumo sword voluntarily surrendering to the resistance of the same power. How could she accept this? No, absolutely not.

The thinking style of a spirit is often filled with strong egoism and a strong style. Her cognition does not allow her to give in without authorization.

Therefore, facing this vast magical skylight, Ibuki stretched out his other two arms that still had strength left, waving golden light and vast clouds, and confronted it head-on without dodging or evading.

Boom!

The torrent of magic was dazzling, and the scorching heat crushed the storm and thunder gathered from the clouds. The intense friction of energy caused the gaps between them to crackle, making sharp and piercing sounds.

Violent thunder and dense explosions erupted in the void. After encountering obstruction, the scattered magic power formed a dazzling and deadly glow, like several gorgeous rainbows hanging in the Pacific sky.

"It's just dragon breath, nothing more than that—!"

Amidst the swirling storm of battle, Ibuki coordinated his four hands. One pair tightly grasped the Ame-Kuroku sword to counter Indra's arrows, while the other pair raised its hands to mobilize its power to delay the approach of Melyuchina's magic cannons, still smiling brightly.

Even if she was battling against her nemesis's sword and arrows while holding the dragon's breath in her hand, she would still be invincible in the world...

"It's now!"

Originally, Emiya was riding Melyuchina high in the sky, and his Susanoo mecha was on the verge of collapse. Although he still managed to hold on until the last moment, the power of the gods was already in the stage of collapse, and he no longer had any divine means that he could use.

So, Emiya decided to charge up and jump from Melyuchina's dragon back, then dive down! Heading directly towards Ibuki Douji, the center of the storm vortex!

"Ugh!?"

Ibuki Douji was shocked. He saw Emiya waving his arms high, and the giant purple mecha hand clenched Indra's arrow tightly and sent it forward fiercely. The huge mass carried by the mecha became the last straw that broke the camel's back!

Now is the final blow!

Ibuki Douji opened his eyes wide in surprise, surprised at Emiya's decisiveness, and also surprised that the originally balanced confrontation was broken by such crude means.

So that's why she underestimated the struggle of mortals to survive.

Bah!

Although the Murasakibara swords of both sides were broken into pieces, Ibuki Douji's side was the first to fall into defeat. Indra's arrow cut off the former's sword, and the shattered but still powerful blade pierced his chest!

Boom!

The next moment, the sword blade, which contained the huge amount of Susanoo's spiritual power condensed by Emiya, exploded horribly in Ibuki Douji's body, quickly destroying the internal structure of her spirit. In an instant, the blood of the spirit splattered, and the golden light became illusory and shattered.

At the same time, the torrent of magic that Melyuchina poured out was relentless, rapidly expanding and exploding, blasting bright blood flowers one after another on Ibuki Douji's huge body.

"Hahaha……!"

Ibuki Douji felt intense pain and began to sincerely admire the powerful abilities of mortals... No, no matter whether they were weak or strong, this brilliance that belonged only to them and burst out when struggling in adversity made her gain incomparable joy.

"Brilliant! Brilliant! You have clearly never possessed or experienced such a divine realm, yet you are able to defeat me in this life-and-death struggle."

Ibuki-douji was bleeding but still had the leisure to talk and chat, as if the severely injured god was not herself.

The airflow gradually changes direction.

Her huge body began to shrink due to the pain, and gradually returned to its original three-meter height from its huge size.

The mecha operated by Emiya, after using all his strength to launch a final attack, quickly broke and disintegrated, and in the process of being released, it turned into a sky full of lightning again.

The great armor given by Minamoto no Raikou is still in his body and will not disappear, but unfortunately the power of the gods has been used up. It is unknown whether he can use the "Susanoo" mecha again in this life.

So naturally, under the influence of gravity, Emiya lost the protection of the mecha and was exposed to the turbulent air currents at high altitudes, and together with Ibuki Douji, he met the end of falling.

...Emiya looked at the severely injured Ibuki-douji indifferently. He would not fall down like this anyway, and would be caught steadily by Melyuchina.

“Oh hehe hahahahaha——”

Ibuki Douji remained in high spirits even as he plummeted. "Young man, I recognize the power of my nemesis! Young warrior, you truly possess the qualities to shake the spirits of the gods, carry divine power, and reach the realm of the gods!"

"?" Emiya tried hard to ignore the whistling wind in his ears and was puzzled by what Ibuki-douji said.

He had used up all his divine power before he began to identify with him? What was the point?

"Humph."

Ibuki Douji suddenly stretched out a hand, and under Emiya's astonished gaze, he touched her bloody chest and finally pulled out an object emitting golden light and particles...

Emiya was a bit puzzled. No, that shouldn't be a physical object that existed before, but a structure or concept that had been extracted.

“That’s…?”

"The divine core," Ibuki Douji said casually, "Young man, since I have recognized you, then accept the power that comes from the gods."

"Hahaha, you should know mythology and history. I am the son of Yamata no Orochi and the incarnation of Ibuki Daimyojin, but at the same time, I am also considered to be one and the same as Susanoo."

What Ibuki is referring to is the story of the historical Susanoo in the Dragon World, who eventually transformed into the Yamata no Orochi.

"Thus, in essence, I am you, and you are me! From this moment on, young warrior, I will fuse everything in me into a divine core and give it to you!"

"In other words, young man who kills gods, devour me completely! You who defeat the Great Snake God will become the Susanoo of this world!"

Whoosh-!

The golden light in Ibuki's hand flew out quickly and entered Emiya's body in the blink of an eye.

He was caught off guard by Ibuki Douji's move, "Why—"

Before he could finish his words, a strong wind suddenly howled, and a huge dragon's back suddenly rushed into view, completely blocking Ibuki in front of him.

Melyuchina caught Emiya.

boom.

The moment he landed on the dragon's back, he quickly adjusted his body position, lying on the dragon's back and holding on to the protruding parts of the dense scales on it.

The violent wind blew in his ears. Emiya, braving the turbulent air currents in the sky, stuck his head out from the side of the dragon's back and looked down.

Ibuki, falling, began to disintegrate into particles, gradually dissipating in mid-air. The moment he saw Emiya's face, he suddenly smiled, his lips moving, and a faint voice echoed:

"Take this divine power! The future of mankind rests in your hands!"

"Huh? What does this mean—"

Emiya originally wanted to ask loudly, but unfortunately, the other party had completely disappeared and there was no echo.

He shrank back onto the dragon's back, his mind a mess due to the other party's actions and the huge amount of information in his words.

Why did the other party bestow upon him the power of the gods? Why did he say that the future lies in the hands of mankind?

Emiya recalled that when Ibuki came before, he said that he was ordered by the planet to correct the wrong history.

In other words, now that the mission has failed and the wrong history continues to develop, the phenomenon of human logic being burned out and becoming blank is inevitable?

The divine power she gave to him before leaving was intended to make him a safeguard to protect the world?

Emiya was a bit numb now. He lay on the dragon's back, scratching his head with a confused mind, but he still felt something was wrong. Ibuki's mention of the words "burn" and "bleach" was a real déjà vu. So, what was going on in this world?

As he thought about it, a feeling of fatigue came over him, and he gradually fell asleep.
