Mordred’s life experience is very tortuous.
She is an artificial human created by Morgan, King Arthur's sister, who transformed King Arthur's gender, collected his genetic information, and placed it in her own ovary to cultivate.
So it is very appropriate for Mordred to call Artoria his father. Her birth was also a conspiracy carried out by Morgan out of jealousy to end King Arthur's rule.
Despite such a filthy life experience, Mordred deeply admired his father, King Arthur, and was delighted that he, who had perfectly replicated his father's power and talent, was the best heir to the throne.
Until she was flatly rejected by King Arthur, who believed that King Arthur was discriminating against her origin, the deep anger caused by her made her launch a rebellion, which finally ended King Arthur's rule.
But until the last moment, or at all times, she was not longing for King Arthur's recognition and longing for King Arthur.
Being denied in person again, even the figure he admired the most denied himself. Mordred's anger made Mordred instantly lose his mind.
Regardless of the secret principles of the Holy Grail War, on this sunny day on the street, she put on armor and released her magic power with all her strength!
The ground beneath her feet was instantly shattered by her, and fierce winds whipped the sky. Pedestrians in the distance cast their eyes in astonishment and saw two short knights in armor facing each other.
They are very close in stature, except that one is covered in armor including her face, while the other is a girl with a more noble and gorgeous posture.
…making a movie?”
“Where are the fans and cameras hidden?”
“Hey, how did you create this special effect, and why have you never heard that we are going to make a movie here...”
In the midst of the discussion, Artoria solemnly said to Ji Xing: "Master, step back."
The next moment, the figures of the father and son pulled out their afterimages and clashed their weapons in the open space a little ahead!
Sands and rocks flew in an instant.
A strong tornado vortex arose from the place where the two collided, and the ground tore apart in the distance. A street lamp more than ten meters away made an unpleasant groan after being overwhelmed and fell to the ground!
The splashing sand and stones hit the face, causing a burst of stinging pain. The passers-by who were watching from a distance finally woke up and ran away screaming.
Then the two swords collided at high speed.
Facing her 'son', Arturia did not use the Wind King's barrier, and faced the enemy with the sword of victory in an upright manner.
Mordred's weapon is an ominous-looking dark red sword named 'The Brilliant King's Sword'. It was originally the only sword in King Arthur's arsenal that could rival the Sword of Victory. , a silver that shines brighter than any silver, symbolizing the inheritance of the throne.
But because Mordred was wronged and caused fatal injuries to King Arthur, the blade was entangled with hatred and distortion.
The collision of the two swords is full of a sense of fate. They are also each other's most familiar enemies.
"you…"
“Stop fighting!”
Ji Xing, who hastily retreated a distance, shouted eagerly, "Sister Mordred, are you really a Heroic Spirit too? Let's have a good chat first and stop fighting!"
Altria was almost distracted and hit with the sword, but Mordred, who was in a rage, naturally ignored it.
Just when Ji Xing was "pretending to step forward," an arm suddenly reached out from the side and grabbed him, dragging him into the alley next to him.
This caused the two swordsmen to finally pause for a moment, and then the battle started again.
“Hey, do you want your life?” The one who dragged Ji Xing away was naturally Lion Jie. He said solemnly: “I don’t even dare to go up and stop them.”
"...Mr. Shishijie, actually I guessed that you were Masters and Heroic Spirits after I learned about the Holy Grail War from Tohsaka-san, but you clearly saw the Command Seal and didn't do anything to me. You must have other ideas, right?" Why are you starting to fight now?" Ji Xing said urgently.
"Ah, you are so bold to have guessed this and not brought other heroic spirits back." Lion Jie sighed: "But don't high school students nowadays learn foreign history? You know that the one you summoned is King Arthur, right? So, don't you Never heard of the name Mordred?"
"I... I just heard her call Saber 'Father'. It seemed like she had heard it, but it seemed like she had never heard it before. And the heroic spirits are different from the history we know, right? Shouldn't King Arthur be a man?" Ji Xing asked .
Um? Makes sense! ...shit.
Sure enough, I don’t know about the rebel knights.
Well, what should I say about this?
My servant is the unlucky son who betrayed your servant and caused the destruction of your servant's country?
Lion Jie felt like his head was getting bigger, and what was more important was the battle that was happening in front of him.
Suddenly, we became the first group to start a battle with the red team, and we did it in front of a large crowd. If we continued, we didn’t know how many people would be attracted to the surrounding area. It was too dangerous.
There are ways to resolve the battle as quickly as possible. The guy in front of me trusts me a little too much, but killing him right here after just two meals is a bit too much, not to mention that Mordred may not be willing for me to come. Intervene.
The same goes for using command spells.
Can we only wait here for them to decide the winner? Lion Tribulation has absolute confidence in Mordred because there is a gap between him and his master.
In fact, after the initial collision, the situation between father and son, who were fighting increasingly fiercely, gradually became tilted.
They were able to die together in Camlan's Hill. The basic abilities of father and son are very similar. King Arthur might have been slightly better originally, but the gap in magic power supply caused Mordred's data to be ahead in all aspects at the moment.
Can win, but...do we want to win?
Lion Jie was deep in thought, explaining the history to Ji Xing in a low voice while watching the battle unfold.
I saw the 'Magic Sword' swinging widely in Mordred's hand. It looked disorganized and crazy, but it followed instinct and was the most efficient and ideal killing method.
It doesn't look like a person wielding a sword, but more like a natural disaster like a tornado. It is naturally accompanied by the destruction of surrounding streets and the unbroken cracks of buildings. Any sophisticated technology can be used in this kind of cruelty where taking the opponent's life is the first priority. Even with swordsmanship, it seems that he will be defeated with overwhelming force!
Looking back at King Arthur, the legendary king of knights is outstanding in his swordsmanship. It was obvious that he had undergone rigorous training and had integrated his sword skills into his bones and blood. Even the natural disaster-like tornado could not destroy him.
But she kept defending and retreating.
Although his expression was always calm and serious after every attack, Shishi Jie clearly saw the difficulty. That was the absolute gap in strength.
Finally, after about 100 moves, Artoria's sword blade was swung away, and Mordred's sword edge suddenly slashed her away!
A little blood was spilled, and King Arthur was shot backward onto the Weiyuan River, swinging out for dozens of meters.
Bang! Mordred's sword blade was inserted into the concrete floor, his eyes with a fierce light shifted to the position of Lion Jie and Ji Xing, and he spat.
“Ah, what a spoiler!”
Obviously, she was talking about the power gap between the two parties caused by Ji Xing, but maybe it was because of Ji Xing's two meals that she only complained about this.
When he looked back at King Arthur, he found that there were no injuries on the other party who had climbed up from the water. He was slightly startled, with excitement in his eyes.
"Is that so? Have you found Avalon? Arthur! In this case, it won't be considered as my bullying you. Come on, Father! Let me end your meaningless kingdom just like I ended your relationship with you. A boring wish for the Holy Grail!"
Altria was still holding the sword expressionlessly, but at this moment, the voice of Ji Xing's consciousness suddenly sounded in her mind.
“Say as I say.”
…Master?”
After a pause, she repeated: "Mordred, you still don't understand. The king becomes the brightest gem in order to shine on others, not just because of his position." Mordred 1 stagnation.
"You don't have the king's grace. I didn't teach you seriously because of your background, and I have never blamed you for the fault." The following words were added by King Arthur himself: "The destruction of Britain was entirely due to my lack of ability. That’s why I hope to use the Holy Grail to go back in time.”
"cut-!"
After three seconds of silence, Mordred raised her magic sword high: "What gem? The king should be the king, the most shining king!"
The thick helmet covering his face was divided into two parts and integrated with the armor.
Then the blazing magic power dyed the surrounding air with blood, and a **** aurora rose above the sword's edge, which was ominous and gloomy.
"Hey, isn't it?" Lion Jie's expression suddenly changed: "You want to use the Noble Phantasm here?"
Seeing that King Arthur on the river also raised his sword with a tense face, he was even more serious: "Is the same for the other party... But can her magic really support her to fight against Mordred like this?"
The next moment, he noticed something strange around him, looked sideways, and was startled.
I saw the veins on the forehead of the young man beside me unnaturally bulging, and sweat was unknowingly covered in sweat. His body was tense as if he was constipated, but what he 'pulled out' was the magic power that was obviously wrapped around him!
what? He increased his own magic power and increased King Arthur's magic power supply? !
how did you do that? !
As an experienced and knowledgeable magician, Shishi Jie knows several magics with similar effects, but they all require external assistance.
Can you increase your magic power out of thin air? !
After thinking about it for a while, he got an unbelievable but only reasonable answer.
Origin.
If attributes are the fundamental factors that determine magic, then more profoundly, the fundamental factor that determines a person's existence is the origin!
Those are things that are innate to a person, or the attributes of the soul. Most of them are similar to the magical attributes. There are also a few that have very special origins that will deviate from the magical attributes.
For example, the origin of Fate's protagonist Shirou Emiya is a 'sword', so his magic attribute has become a very special 'sword attribute'.
Those who can master their own origins will basically make achievements in magic in the future.
Even a senior magician like Shishi Jiejieli has not grasped his own origin, so he can't believe such a judgment.
“There are indeed examples of low-level magicians who accidentally discovered the origin and were even able to use it. If this is the origin, what would be his origin? ’
According to the magic information I saw at his house last night, he should be of water attribute.
Water…the source of life.
Is attribute the concept of ‘life’?
Is the effect of using it something as simple and crude as increasing the extent of overdraft of vitality and accelerating the production of magic power? They look similar!
After completing the analysis in a blink of an eye, he saw the boy across from him smile: "This is something I learned when I was seven years old, and I couldn't use it skillfully until some time ago. I can't hold back King Arthur, Mr. Lion Jie, I believe you You shouldn’t take this opportunity to sneak attack me.”
"...You taught me a lesson, little brother. That night when I was seven years old?" Lion Jie exhaled melancholy.
In the Holy Grail War, no one can be underestimated. The person selected by the Holy Grail should naturally have some ability, at least potential.
If what happened today had not happened and I had ignored the young man in front of me, I might have received a severe beating at some point.
After this moment of delay, the momentum of the father and son in the distance has reached its peak.
Golden light and blood-colored light shone brightly, making the atmosphere seem to let out bursts of screams.
“Rebellion against Duanli’s father!” “Ex——calibur!”
With the roaring roar, golden light and red lightning rushed towards each other, and the two rays of light engulfed each other with the purpose of pure destruction!
Along the way, the ground was split into tracks like butterfly wings, and the river in the distance was also cut into pieces. When the two colors of gold and red collided, the brilliance of the avalanche seemed to announce the end of the world!
It wasn’t until half a minute later that the ever-expanding light finally faded away, softened, and gradually disappeared into nothingness like dust.
King Arthur is still standing firmly on the rushing river, and Mordred is also standing firmly on the ground, but they both have a little breather.
Only the 100 meters between the two were destroyed into a deep ditch, which led the water from the Weiyuan River here.
The shop signs in the nearby blocks were blown away, and most of the windows were cracked and broken, giving a desolate scene after the war.
Lion Jie and Ji Xing, who were hiding close to the wall, dared to poke their heads out. Seeing this, Lion Jie let out a sigh and quickly used his senses to send a message to Mordred: "Hey, calm down a little bit? We made it too big.
This guy also has a trick in reserve. The battle between you and King Arthur should not be decided in three or two minutes. The other servants must be rushing here, and you don’t want to be interrupted or wait for this. Did the chef's coma from excessive consumption bring him victory? "
Mordred gritted his teeth slightly and made another low cut sound. Just when she was struggling, a sudden change occurred.
It was an arrow shot from a long distance, and its target was Ji Xing, and the first person to react was Lion Tribulation. He instinctively pushed out his right hand, pushing Ji Xing away at the expense of his own arm being scratched, letting the arrow stick to the ground with a bang!
“Master?!”*2
The next moment, the two Sabers whispered at the same time. Mordred dodged directly to Lion Zed and said angrily: "Are you okay?"
"Ah, it's just a superficial wound." Lion Jie looked into the distance: "The one who's here to kill the chef seems to be our Archer. But judging from the trajectory and power of the arrow, it seems he doesn't mind blowing me up. Injured or even shot to death."
“That bastard—” Mordred seemed to have found a way to vent his anger and go down the steps. He jumped towards the direction where the arrow came from and chased him.
Lion Jie was startled and looked at King Arthur who was showing concern for Ji Xing. He twitched the corner of his mouth, moved his arms, and turned around to leave: "Brother Chef, take care, we will probably come back, after all, you have accepted us of food and beverage expenses.”
After saying that, he looked for a corner and hurried away, leaving only the dilapidated scene and Ji Xing.
Altria had subconsciously cared about her master just now, but when she came to Ji Xing's side, she remembered what was going on with her master.
Looking at Ji Xing's sweat-stained face, she said again: "Master, are you okay? Is this the method you mentioned to increase the supply of magic power in an appropriate way?"
"How about it? Is it appropriate? My power of origin." Ji Xing asked with a smile.
Artoria was speechless, and after a moment of silence she continued: "I'm sorry for causing you extra trouble, Mordred..."
“He is quite a nice person, and so is the Master.”
In fact, the relationship and conflicts between King Arthur and Mordred can be summed up by Aizen's words - longing is the emotion furthest from understanding.
Mordred admired his father deeply, but could not understand his father's heart.
“As long as we face it properly, trouble may not be turned into a good thing, but then we have to face another trouble first,” Ji Xing said.
Altria was startled.
Ji Xing pointed to his ear and said with a smile: "Didn't you hear? The police are here. My character is not suitable for using hypnotic magic that is too skilled."
"…so what should I do now?"
“What else can we do, just run.”
