"Mountain Shaking, Morning Star's Fire!"
"Blazing Flame, Even Burn Down the Gods!"
"Forced Seal, Pandemonium Cetus!"
When all three of them, Ishtar, Quetzalcoatl, and Anna-chan, had arrived and all fired wildly at Tiamat as Guinevere had requested, a sliver of sympathy for Tiamat began to surface in the depths of Guinevere's heart.
Moreover, if it weren't for the King of Heroes and the others having to protect the civilians, there would be many, many more top-tier Noble Phantasms bombarding Tiamat right now.
Once, twice, three times...
Because the three gods were all in excellent condition, their Noble Phantasms were unleashed in rapid succession.
And besides them, when the King of Knights used the Holy Sword of the Planet for the fifth time, even Dr. Romani from Chaldea was shocked that such a level of Noble Phantasm spamming was possible.
At the same time, Guinevere gained a new understanding of her Holy Sword's mana absorption ability. With an abundant source of mana to draw upon, how was it not a magical furnace capable of infinite mana supply? From this point alone, it deserved the name Holy Sword.
"Ritsuka, Mash, although our side has the upper hand and keeps blasting Tiamat to pieces, the other three besides Lia cannot last much longer.
Therefore, as the Master who taught you swordsmanship, I'll give you a new question. Have you found the location of the Holy Grail inside Tiamat's body?"
Not just Guinevere, but everyone at Chaldea was also searching for the Holy Grail. According to the plan, Guinevere would take Tiamat out of this era, but the Holy Grail had to be found in advance, otherwise it would only add unnecessary variables.
"Sister Guinevere, I..."
"Ritsuka, the Holy Grail is in Tiamat's lower abdomen, within her Nurturing Mother of All Beasts."
"Dr. Romani, are you..."
"Guinevere, I don't think we have any more time to waste. As Ishtar and the others can no longer use their Noble Phantasms, and the King of Knights can no longer hold out, we will not have an opportunity like this again.
While everyone is resting, Tiamat's Spirit Origin will continue to grow and expand, reaching a level that will be even harder for us to rival."
The projected screen appeared on Ritsuka's wristband. As a bystander and a true Grand Caster, Dr. Romani was better able to assess the battle.
Not knowing the strength of Guinevere's Second Noble Phantasm, he chose the safest approach.
"Alright, Ritsuka, Mash, let's say our goodbyes for now. I'll say the same thing I did in the last Singularity: if you need me, remember to summon me, especially if you encounter another Camelot-related Singularity."
Guinevere understood that Dr. Romani's choice was correct. Tiamat seemed to be in a dire state, but in reality, she was merely being temporarily held down in this ocean.
But the continuous barrage of Noble Phantasms was by no means in vain, as they helped Dr. Romani find the Holy Grail's location and left Tiamat, who was repeatedly trying to recover, completely unable to resist, while also suppressing the expansion rate of her Spirit Origin.
Otherwise, Tiamat's Spirit Origin would have already expanded to the level Dr. Romani described.
Standing up, shedding her armor, and clad in only a white dress, Guinevere removed the heart-shaped necklace from her neck.
This was the Transcendent Noble Phantasm Morgan had created based on the Magic-Sealing Necklace Guinevere once used on her, infusing it with the Dragon Heart of Albion.
Holding it, she tore the heart-shaped gem from the center of the necklace.
And then...
The entire Singularity, and even Chaldea outside this spacetime, heard an exceptionally powerful heartbeat.
"Spirit Origin transformation, True Name simulation.
Fly high, fly high, fly high!
This is Albion, the Last Dragon that reveals the boundary!
Noble Phantasm:[ Hollow Heart Albion: The Sorrowful Dragon Wishing for Home ]!"
The words were spoken softly, right until Guinevere stabbed her own chest and placed this gem-like Dragon Heart into her own.
Subsequently, Albion's Dragon Heart completely won over Guinevere's heart, and her human body was also enveloped by the blood flowing from the heart at this instant, leaving only a giant dragon egg over two meters tall in its place.
The deployment of this Noble Phantasm also meant the transformation of Guinevere's Spirit Origin, as well as the acquisition of Albion's True Name and True Form.
Simply put, Guinevere used her own body as a foundation to become a Pseudo-Servant that overlapped with Albion's True Name.
Guinevere's transformation did not take much time. Just as Tiamat recovered and was shattered again, Guinevere's massive dragon body hatched from the dragon egg and instantly swelled into a giant, slender White Dragon over a hundred meters long.
It was a newborn, living dragon, a dragon of metallic black that had not yet died.
What Guinevere transformed into was her final state just before her death, when she had reached her growth limit and desperately wanted to return to the Inner Sea of the Planet.
In the sky, Guinevere spread her dragon wings, her hundred-meter-long body swaying gently. Sensed by her unconcealed dragon's majesty, the newly reborn Lahmu all grew wings and flocked toward her, the most conspicuous source of nourishment.
Even at this moment, the Lahmu did not believe their Mother would be defeated.
And it was at this very moment, after Guinevere's Spirit Origin became independent from their shared one, that the King of Knights suddenly had a flash of insight and understood how to use the Dual Noble Phantasm, The Birds That Fly as One.
In its normal state, The Birds That Fly as One could resurrect the other person within a certain distance after they died, making it a broken Noble Phantasm that prevented both from being killed unless they were slain simultaneously.
Only when the other person was truly "dead" would The Birds That Fly as One activate its "Martyrdom" mode, allowing the survivor to inherit the deceased's full attributes, Skills, and Noble Phantasms.
In other words, after Guinevere's Spirit Origin transformed, resulting in her "death" on the Spirit Origin level, the King of Knights' attributes were drastically boosted. She could now perfectly wield Guinevere's unfinished Sword of Destined Judgment, and in her hand, a Dragon Heart bestowed by The Birds That Fly as One had appeared.
And so, in this instant, the King of Knights chuckled softly and looked at Guinevere, who was already locked in a struggle with the newly Regressed Tiamat and had dug the Holy Grail out of her "abdomen."
As the Dragon of the Border, Albion possessed a certain level of space-shattering ability.
"Ritsuka, Mash, everyone, take care of the Holy Grail. Guinevere and I will be leaving now!"
Just like Guinevere's use of the Dragon Heart, the King of Knights hatched from the dragon egg. However, her aura was now even more powerful, and her transformation was not that of Albion.
The fake Dragon Heart had been devoured. It was consumed by the legend of the King of Knights as the Red Dragon of Britain. After all, the King of Knights' heart had always been a Dragon Core.
The radiant Red Dragon, the Red Dragon that would save the country, the Red Dragon of Destiny. As the Red Dragon incarnated by the King of Knights and the Black Dragon incarnated by Guinevere seized Tiamat's Regressing remains, one before the other.
The two dragons exchanged a smile. Without hesitation, Guinevere granted Albion's wish to regress, erupting from beneath their wings with the savage Mana needed to travel to the Inner Sea of the Planet.
The Dragon of the Border, Albion, was much like a jet-powered dragon-shaped fighter aircraft. Its speed could break the sound barrier, break through space...
As long as the Mystery had not faded at this moment, while truly in the Age of Gods, it could truly reach the Inner Sea of the Planet.
