Anchor, Stop Pretending, You're in Chaldea - Chapter 112

“…It seems like I have been defeated.”

Caesar, who was struck by Jeanne Alter’s sword, lowered his head as crimson blood flowed from the wound.

After losing Magical Energy, “Crocea Mors” returned to being an ordinary golden sword.

After putting up a fierce resistance, Caesar finally fell.

When he saw that his Noble Phantasm was unable to inflict effective damage on Jeanne Alter, Caesar’s entire demeanor became subdued.

“I never imagined that there would be something in this world that I couldn’t conquer…”

Caesar, clutching his wound, resentfully looked at Jeanne Alter.

“With all your talk about conquering, are you perhaps a three-year-old child?”

Jeanne Alter impatiently approached him.

“It’s because you only think about taking things from others that you ended up like this, right?”

“——————？！”

After hearing Jeanne’s words, Caesar stood still for a moment, then let out a bitter smile.

“So that’s how it is… It’s because I have spent my entire life conquering… that I ended up being defeated by something that was created out of nothing, huh?”

Caesar slowly shook his head, looking towards Jeanne Alter as his Saint Graph dissipated.

“Just a flower so beautiful, yet it turns out to be an illusion… It’s truly too sorrowful…”

After uttering these words, Caesar’s body turned into particles and vanished into thin air.

“Senpai, it has been confirmed that the enemy Servant Caesar has disappeared.”

Marie immediately turned back to report to Bai Qiu.

“In that case, we have eliminated one threat!”

“Yes, there are still a few others remaining. I wonder how the situation is with them…”

Before Bai Qiu could verify the battle status of the other two groups through the split-screen in the live broadcast room, a loud bang was heard.

“Boom——————————!!!”

Then, in the distance, a red and black shockwave pierced through the mountain, creating a gaping hole.

This familiar sensation.

“Senpai, it’s Mordred’s Noble Phantasm!!!”

Who else could it be but her?

Wow, she just blasted through the mountain with a single shot…

Although I’m not concerned about the combat strength of this temporary team, and it’s not like Mordred is prohibited from unleashing her Noble Phantasm.

But right now, we are all inside the valley, and if it triggers a mountain collapse, we will be in serious trouble.

Fortunately, the power of Mordred’s beam cannon is so immense that it penetrated through half of the mountain. As long as there isn’t another shot…

“Boom——————————————!!!”

Suddenly, a deafening sound rang out, followed by a strong impact rushing through the valley!!!

“Senpai, be careful!!!”

Mashu immediately raised her shield to protect Bai Qiu behind her.

The enormous shockwave pushed against Mashu’s shield, causing her to slide backward.

Hey, what is Mo-san doing?! Why is she continuously using her Noble Phantasm?

According to the rules, a Servant cannot unleash consecutive Noble Phantasms. Could it be… that Sima Yi has boosted her NP?

“Tsk, could it be that rebellious knight up to something again?”

Jeanne Alter frowned unhappily.

Relying on the effects of her Noble Phantasm, she stood outside without moving.

Although her armor was covered in dust, she seemed completely unconcerned.

After the noise subsided completely, Mashu began observing the situation ahead from behind her shield.

The scene in front of them stunned both Bai Qiu and Mashu.

The surrounding rock walls in the valley had completely vanished?! In their place was a massive crater.

Such a tremendous explosion, as if someone had unleashed a Noble Phantasm without distinguishing friend from foe. After all, even the person involved would find it difficult to escape unscathed from such immense power.

“Senpai, it seems like Kongming-san is over there!”

Mashu immediately ran towards the front and helped the fallen person on the ground.

“Kongming-san, please hold on!!!”

“How did you get so badly injured? What exactly happened just now???”

Bai Qiu looked at the heavily wounded Waver and immediately asked.

“Cough… Don’t worry about me… The king… He’s fighting… against that… Court Magician…”

Waver struggled to get up, but it seemed he had sustained significant injuries.

Lev?!

Lev has come out already?!

Bai Qiu became alert.

Could the explosion just now be caused by Lev?!

“Master!!!”

Mercury’s steed quickly arrived at the scene with Reines and Mordred.

“I’ve eliminated the two Knight Servants over there and came here to support.”

“Onii-sama?!”

Upon seeing Waver’s condition, Reines immediately began examining his injuries.

“Fortunately, it didn’t hit any vital organs. Geez, I thought Onii-sama was going to leave us behind.”

“Master, it seems like there was a lot of commotion here. What exactly happened?”

Bai Qiu didn’t say anything but pointed ahead.

Upon noticing the scenery in front of them, Mordred and Reines were both stunned.

After observing what was there, Reines spoke up:

“They actually destroyed the mountain? If there wasn’t any special circumstance, the Noble Phantasm that can achieve this level of destruction must be of high rank. But judging from the residual energy at the center…”

Reines’ azure pupils revealed a crimson flame as she carefully analyzed the situation.

“No wonder someone self-destructed?!”

“You managed to reach this point, truly beyond my expectations, Chaldea mice! I might even give you a round of applause.”

Suddenly, a somewhat familiar voice came from the sky.

Bai Qiu and the others looked up and saw a person floating in the air, overlooking them.

“Professor Lev!!!”

Upon seeing Lev, Mashu immediately raised her shield.

“Mashu, the pitiful fusion of humans and Heroic Spirits, how long are you going to keep fighting?”

“Until the moment we reclaim humanity’s future, of course!!!”

Mashu stared at Lev in the sky with a determined gaze.

“Reclaim the future? Hahaha, hahaha… How shamelessly confident, with your insignificant power?”

Lev laughed heartily.

“But most of your Servants have already been defeated by us.”

Mordred shouted, unconvinced.

“They’re just expendables summoned with the Holy Grail, and even if those fools die, they still have utility. With the right command, they can self-destruct at the right moment.”

Professor Lev shared this information as if he were sharing something amusing.

“That’s their final value.”

Bai Qiu frowned.

According to Lev’s words, it seems that he was responsible for the explosion just now.

Most likely, he detonated Spartacus’ body.

Just like how Matou Zouken controlled the deceased Medea’s body, Lev desecrated the physical form of the Heroic Spirits summoned to this era.

“Hiss, hiss, hiss—!!!”

Suddenly, a black steed came running from a distance.

“Ha!!!”

A bolt of lightning suddenly descended from the sky, striking Lev in mid-air.

When the smoke cleared, Lev in mid-air was completely unharmed.

But at this moment, Lev’s smile became terrifying once again.

“It seems you’ve lost your mind. Have you forgotten who exactly summoned you? Rider!!!”
