……

"I……"

Hideyoshi felt a chill in his heart as he watched this scene, and quickly touched his head.

I breathed a sigh of relief after realizing I didn't fall, but my body was still shaking subconsciously.

……

[“Hide…yoshi…”]

Sasaki Kojiro's entire body trembled slightly, his eyes blank, his brain completely blank from the stimulation. Even saying his Master's name was extremely difficult. The swordsman, once renowned for his agility, was now completely stiff.

Although I have only known Hideyoshi for a short time, we have formed a deep friendship.

The pleasant banter and conversation with Hideyoshi were still vivid in his mind. He vaguely remembered that he responded to countless topics with a chuckle.

……

"I have no complaints against the Master."

"It's more like you don't have the arrogance typical of a magus. I like that."

"What are you pursuing? I'm content just by wielding my sword."

"Although I call myself Sasaki Kojiro, I'm not sure if my existence is real. Alas, this is the end of someone who dedicated his life to the sword."

"The Holy Grail? It's a bit too big for moon-viewing and drinking. Perhaps dead bones would be more useful..."

"How about drinking together with the moonlight?"

"What? Hideyoshi, you're still underage... and can't drink? I see. Then I'll wait patiently for a few more years. Until that day comes, I, Kojiro, will be your guardian sword, protecting you."

……

[Scenes from the past flash by, that person who is so vivid and laughing in my memory...]

[But at this moment, his head hangs high, like a flag, and he closes his eyes silently.]

Sasaki Kojiro came back to his senses, his eyes cold, and he clenched his sword tightly. "My friend, war is cruel, I'm used to it, but I will never trample on you..."

【suddenly--.】

"Assassin!"

[The familiar name made him stunned for a moment.]

[Immediately, a gust of wind tore through the air.]

[“Puff.”]

[A black belt pierced the blue-robed swordsman's heart, and his pupils shrank sharply.]

All his strength was instantly drained, and the sword he held tightly in his hand loosened, flashing with a cold light. He kept falling down the steps of Ryudo Temple, emitting a series of resounding, crisp sword sounds that shook everyone's heart.

【"cough…"】

[Blood is flowing from the corner of Kojiro's mouth. He places his palm under his chin, frowning and staring ahead.]

【Tap~tap~.】

[The sound of creepy footsteps is heard.]

[From the heights of Ryudo Temple, a graceful figure approached, holding a cane.]

The apple-sized head on the cane is lifelike.

[That young face, in pain, twisted and wailing.]

[“I didn’t expect it to be this kind of evil spirit…”]

Sasaki Kojiro muttered to himself, and suddenly his whole body became weak and he fell straight down.

[Soon, the blue-clad swordsman's chest suddenly bulged and tensed...]

【Click~.】

【A dark hand tears through his chest and reaches out.】

[“Hohohohohohoho~.”]

[Accompanied by a burst of sinister laughter, Sasaki Kojiro's stomach was ripped open, blood and internal organs gushed out of his body, and a hunched figure stood up.]

The picture gradually dimmed.

People looked at this scene in astonishment, pinching their inner thighs hard. After feeling the severe pain, they were stunned and began to doubt their lives.

What the hell...

Kojiro died just like that?!

There are only two Assassin members left, and everyone is out?!

This is fucking unscientific!

"The person who attacked from the dark was... Enoshima Junko?"

Asuna frowned slightly, feeling that she was the only one who fit the description.

However, the mysterious black shadow that burst out of Kojiro's body is even more worthy of attention. Could it be a monster similar to the Gorgon that was born from the body of the heroic spirit?

But it doesn't have such a terrifying aura.

Seems... ordinary?

……

The scene distorted again, switching to a battlefield where the Monster Goddess was wreaking havoc.

[Outside the church, Artoria untied herself, holding the holy sword in her hand. She looked at Medea like an angry lion and said coldly.]

"Caster, we'll settle this after we defeat that monster!"

「…I’m angry.」

Medea ignored the threat, her lips curled up into a beautiful smile.

[Under Luo Shu's persuasion, she also temporarily gave up on restraining Saber.]

【We decided to form an alliance and kill the Monster Goddess first.】

[Even though Gorgon is only one of the three pillars, he still possesses great power.]

If there hadn't been a powerful being to hold up the heavens and suppress the Gorgon, she would have been enough to destroy the world in seven days, sending human civilization back to the Stone Age.

Of course, this wasn't the reason Medea decided to form an alliance. If she left Fuyuki City, she wouldn't be able to find a spiritual vein to sustain herself, and she might even be sealed by the monster in the Clock Tower.

[After expelling or suppressing the Gorgons, you can dissolve the alliance.]

【Let the 5th Holy Grail War continue! 】

[I still have Archer and Assassin, including myself in the Caster class.]

【Three to one, the advantage is mine! 】

Medea smiled, full of confidence, and sure of victory.

"Subjugating the Gorgons... I have no objection to that."

[Not far away, the white-haired female heroic spirit smiled calmly and waved her hand nonchalantly.]

[As if he were standing aside from the situation.]

Cu Chulainn, on the other hand, spread his hands helplessly, "This is really tricky..."

"Although I'm confident in my Deaththorn Spear, with this size, even my Noble Phantasm at full power will hardly cause any effective damage!"

[As soon as these words were spoken, everyone present subconsciously looked towards the God-Age Witch.]

【“……?!”】

Medea was stunned for two seconds, then smiled faintly as if thinking about something.

[Indeed, as a turret mage facing this behemoth, it's best for me to start first, consume it, and let these guys reap the spoils. Then, whether it's a highly penetrating magic spear or a nuclear explosion arrow, I can use it.]

[Both can effectively strike the Gorgon.]

After deciding on the strategy, the Servant Masters present immediately set off.

[Medea, Artoria, Yukinoshita Yukino, Heroic Spirit Yukino, Cu Chulainn, Luo Shu...]

[Six powerful warriors of the Heroic Spirit level gather together to defeat the great demon! ]

[Kogoro Mori stared blankly at the retreating figures.]

[No... Why did you pull me down...? ]

[I am also a pistol-level expert! ]

Many netizens have just recovered from Hideyoshi's death, taking a deep breath, typing nervously and carefully, and sending out comments.

I was afraid that if I typed too much, I would accidentally use too much force and press Kogoro to death.

"Uncle Maori, forget it. Those people are monsters. You, an ordinary person, can't compare to them."

"Poor Mother C doesn't know it yet. She thinks she has the upper hand, but in reality, Assassin is already dead. If we can successfully defeat the Gorgon and resume the Holy Grail War, it will be a 2-to-1 fight at best..."

"No, it's very likely to be 2 vs. 3. Yukino, Luo Shu, and Cu Chulainn, barely three Heroic Spirit-level fighters... The chances of a failure are too high..."

"The passing away of good is within me (I am sure of it)."

"Don't be so pessimistic, okay? Maybe Mother C has some hidden tricks up her sleeve on the Knight King, and she'll use them at the critical moment..."

"Oh, forget about that. I'll just observe a moment of silence for Hideyoshi."

"Queshi's death was a bit too tragic..."

"Head? Where did Hideyoshi get the head?!"

"Fuck, you're the devil upstairs, don't let me recall that scene again!"

"Headless Hideyoshi's Strange Record?"

"Or the headless senior?"

"Hey, hey, hey, why are you getting more and more excessive? Besides, Hideyoshi should be the headless apprentice!"

"No matter what, Hideyoshi's gender is Hideyoshi!"

……

[Fuyuki City is almost reduced to ruins, and flames of war rage across dozens of kilometers.]

The Warcraft Goddess screamed and roared, her massive body rolling over the ground. Her angry and cold eyes revealed her feelings. Accompanied by desperate cries from all over, countless magic cannons shot out.

Medea floats in the air, her expression stern. The purple ripples behind her resemble wings tens of meters long.

[A magical bullet, seemingly capable of drowning the sky, charged, illuminating the entire world in a brilliant purple. The terrifying aura of the Age of Gods pierced through the surface and spread.]

[Ten thousand cannons converge, full of oppression! ]

Even the Gorgon noticed this and turned to look at the little man in the sky in surprise.

[“Boom…!!”]

Instantly, purple light bombs rained down like a torrential downpour, piercing the heavens and piercing the earth. The aftermath stirred up a deafening force five gale within the city, accompanied by terrifying explosions as they barreled directly towards the Gorgon!

[Flames shot up into the sky, knocking the unsuspecting Gorgon down several meters. The violent shaking caused a massive earthquake in Fuyuki City!]

[The firepower is ten times stronger than the army of the world's top power just now! ]

[“Boom…!!”]

[However… in the smoke and dust of the explosion, the Gorgon angrily stood up, unharmed. Immediately, countless strands of hair danced behind him, and the skyscraper-like snake head roared angrily, gathering countless magic cannons and firing.]

Instantly, countless massive blood-red energy pillars blasted towards Medea, their crossfire so densely that there seemed to be no gaps at all.

[A terrifying roar drowned out the entire sky! ]

[As if to completely nail this witch from the Age of Gods to the sky.]

Caster was startled, but before he could even begin to be impressed by the Gorgon's defensive abilities, he waved his wand and used teleportation to nimbly dodge the dark red beams that passed by, alternating between using his levitation ability and his own.

[About half a minute later, she, who had been dodging constantly, noticed a flaw in the slow-moving Gorgon, and her eyes suddenly became sharp.]

[Accumulate power...]

[Gather more strength...]
