That was an extremely terrifying sonic boom!
A white meteor seemed to fall from the cosmic starry sky, accelerating while creating an astonishing sonic boom, shooting towards Reiger at unimaginable and frightening speed!
"Unknown until now, Innocence Aroundight!"
The white dragon, which vibrated the atmosphere, roared, and the light sword extending from the arm armor in its hand seemed to turn into an extreme beam, stabbing violently at Reigerâs chest!
It was a strike comparable to a meteor fall, the roar of the white dragon, and the swan song of the fairy!
"Boom!!!"
The white meteor struck the young man standing mid-air, instantly triggering a terrifying shock wave akin to a stellar explosion, surging like furious tsunami waves, spreading out in all directions.
Such a frightening commotion naturally affected the battlefield on the ground, inevitably throwing many fairies in the midst of fierce combat into chaos.
"Has it started?"
Bagster, wielding a flaming magic sword, glanced at the sky, then immediately refocused all attention on the enemy in front of him.
"Itâs Lancelot!"
"The most powerful, most beautiful fairy of the Fairy Country...!"
"Dragon kind?"
"Mr. Reiger..."
Da Vinci, Gareth, Habertrot, and Matthew all spoke out, some with their faces changing dramatically, others showing a worried expression, so much so that no one noticed Pasivalâs increasingly complex expression beside them.
As for Altoria and Fujimaru Ritsuka, they were positioned at the rear of the battlefield, one continuously releasing beams of Magic Power, bombarding Bagster overwhelmingly, while the other was controlling several Servants, completely unable to spare any attention.
"Donât panic! Maintain formation!"
At this time, the northern fairy army led by Noconalay had also reached the main gate battlefield of Camelot, and she herself was in a rear command position. Seeing that the fairies inevitably fell into chaos, she immediately issued commands with a majestic air, maintaining the battle line.
"The sky is the domain of the monsters! What we need to focus on is the battle on the ground! Everyone, get a grip!"
Under Noconalayâs shout, both the Northern Army and the Round Table Army started to regain composure, no longer paying heed to the battle in the sky, and continued charging towards Camelot.
The Queenâs Army also had no time to focus on the sky battle anymore, promptly facing the fiercely attacking Allied forces, once again plunging into a state of chaos.
In such a situation, the colossal shockwave in mid-air gradually subsided, revealing the figures of the two people at the explosionâs center.
With silver hair fluttering, maintaining a sprinting posture, the arm armor light sword flowing with terrifying magic power, thrusting outward, was Lancelot.
And... Reiger, still standing in place, his robe also fluttering, entirely unscathed, with just one hand extended, palm facing forward, meeting the arm armor light sword that was stabbing towards him.
Looking closely, it seemed as though Reigerâs palm and Lancelotâs sword touched, but in truth, an extremely tiny distance separated them.
That distance, appearing negligible, infinitesimally close to zero, was in reality quite the opposite, the distance was truly infinite, causing that meteor fall-like strike not to even touch Reiger.
"Tsk...!"
This scene made Lancelot click his tongue in a somewhat image-breaking manner, the light waves on his body erupting, swiftly distancing himself from Reiger like a glider.
Reiger did not pursue, continuing to stand there, retracting his palm, while saying in a calm tone, as if nothing had happened.
"To attack me with a noble phantasm right off the bat, Iâm truly flattered."
[Unknown until now, Innocence Aroundight] â this was indeed the noble phantasm Lancelot almost used before Reiger previously.
Think back, in Salisbury, when Reiger encountered Lancelot and battled him fiercely to the end, both were prepared to simultaneously use their killer moves to determine the victor.
At that time, Reiger was preparing to use his most powerful sword technique, the Thirteenth Form of the Sunâs Breath â [Secret Technique: Blossom].
While Lancelot was preparing to use this noble phantasm â [Unknown until now, Innocence Aroundight].
A noble phantasm, unquestionably, is a killer move for heroic spirits.
Lancelot used a noble phantasm right at the beginning, which genuinely surprised Reiger a bit.
"If I didnât do this, it would probably end up like last time, being easily manipulated in your palm, right?"
Lancelot gazed coldly at Reiger, speaking with a cool demeanor.
"If possible, I hope that one strike just now could have decided the victory, which would prevent many concerns of mine from materializing."
"Unfortunately, it failed."
"I didnât think even a noble phantasm strike couldnât harm you in the slightestâyou really... have become much stronger than before."
Such an all-out attack not even touching Reiger, it seemingly made Lancelot a bit unsure of his usual composure.
"What exactly is that ability? I can feel the space has shifted!"
It seems that Lancelot didnât miss observing everything.
"What? Amazed already?" Reiger didnât answer Lancelotâs question, or really had no need to, saying lightly: "To tell you the truth, if you canât shorten this distance of âinfinityâ, you donât even qualify to be my opponent."
"To fight the current me, or even to defeat me, the first thing you need to do is breach this âinfinityâ."
"If you canât achieve this, no matter how strong you are, youâre absolutely not my opponent."
Upon hearing Reigerâs words, Lancelotâs elegantly formed brows furrowed deeply.
"Infinity..."
She seemed to understand a bit why she couldnât touch Reiger, due to what reason exactly.
"Boom!"
Without excessive words, light waves erupted behind Lancelot, and she once again transformed into a white meteor, ejecting the light sword from her arm armor.
Lancelotâs sword refined from her own skin, named Alondite.
Alondite, recognized in the legend of King Arthur as the sword of the strongest knight of the Round Table, Lancelot.
If Gawain of the Round Table holds the sister sword Carvinting of the holy sword held by King Arthur, Lancelot of the Round Table possessing Alondite is a counterpart, one of the swords trusted to humans by the lake spirits.
With the same origin as Arthurâs holy sword, its toughness rivaling that sword, itâs a blade that absolutely will not break.
Being able to wield this sword is a symbol of honor for the strongest knight of the age, this sword even once defeated a dragon, thus able to inflict tremendous damage on those with dragon attributes.
As the Elf Knight Lancelot gaining the same name as that knight of the Round Table, being the strongest pure-blooded dragon kind, the Alondite she used, though sharing the name with that dragon-slaying sword, like Bagsterâs Carvinting, was also a fairy sword replicated from a part of her body.
And Lancelotâs noble phantasm, used this sword to attack opponents was a very simple and unadorned thing.
Without much elaborate embellishment, it was merely an all-out thrust, compared to othersâ noble phantasms akin to ultimate skills, seeming somewhat unworthy of its reputation.
However, although the damage of this noble phantasm wasnât high enough to be ultimate, its efficiency of turnover was the best among all noble phantasms.
When others unleash their noble phantasms, perhaps even exhausting everything they can only release a few times, after which they would deplete all power, Magic Power, unable to continue.
Lancelotâs noble phantasm, however, was different, owing to its excellent turnover, it could be deployed anytime, anywhere, like a regular attack.
Therefore, astonishing sonic booms resounded across the sky again, and the white meteor, carrying menacing magic power and impact, charged towards Reiger.
Looking at that momentum-intimidating white meteor continuously accelerating towards him, Reiger suddenly smiled.
In his hand, a black blade with patterns formed by Holy Texts engraved on it quietly emerged.
