Chapter 327 Barbecue Hero King
"What...?"
Archer stared in disbelief at the sword Ea in Shichen's hand. He looked down sharply and realized that the sword had vanished.
"Is this the Ea? It's quite impressive." Shichen held the Ea and examined it with great interest.
Despite its somewhat unconventional appearance, you made him clearly feel the mystery it contained.
At that moment, he seemed omnipotent.
He has already established a connection with the sword, just like the connection with his left and right hands.
The sword, Ea, now belongs entirely to him.
However, the Sword of Ea was merely a side effect; what he truly desired was the Gate of Babylon.
With a portable warehouse, countless treasures, and inexhaustible wealth, he would no longer need to worry about material possessions no matter where he went.
"What...what did you do?" Archer demanded fiercely.
His usually unrestrained and carefree face finally showed signs of panic.
He couldn't help but panic; all he had left was the golden armor he was wearing.
How can he fight like that?
"Can't you tell? I'm just getting my things back." Shichen couldn't help but laugh when he saw Archer's flustered state.
He placed the sword Ea into the Gate of Babylon, put away the Gate of Babylon, and looked at him with amusement.
Dealing with Archer was already easy for him, but now that he has nothing left, it's even easier. He doesn't need to use anything from Archer at all.
As for that suit of armor, he didn't need it; it was too shiny and ugly, and he didn't like it.
Moreover, one shouldn't be too ruthless; one should leave something for others.
"You say what belongs to me is yours? What nonsense are you spouting? You bastard...!"
Boom!
Before Archer could finish speaking, a surge of immense magical power erupted from Shichen, its oppressive force forcing him to stop talking.
"throat--!"
A clear, resonant cry rang out, and the magic surrounding Shichen transformed into a seven-colored cloud that rose into the air, then transformed into a giant seven-colored bird-beast.
"That...that is..." Archer stared blankly at Ho-Oh.
"This is my power, Gilgamesh. Do you think you can handle it? Even if you have the Gate of Babylon."
"Shichen asked softly.
"A polymer of magic... How is this possible!" Archer exclaimed incredulously.
He naturally recognized the true form of the Phoenix King at a glance. However, the Gate of Babylon might not be able to deal with it, but the Ea could.
But now all he has left is a suit of armor.
Saber also looked up, gazing in amazement at Ho-Oh hovering high in the sky.
The flying trajectory, adorned with seven-colored light, is both beautiful and sacred.
So this is the true power of time; such a being, with its mere magical power, could exhaust even the heroic spirits.
Not to mention we don't even know what abilities it has.
"Gilgamesh, would you like to know what abilities it has?" Toki asked Archer with a light laugh.
"You bastard... give me back Ea!" Archer roared.
"Why should I return my things to you?" Shichen retorted.
"You thief..."
"Huh? At a time like this, you still dare to swear? Looks like there's no need to say anything more."
Shichen's eyes turned cold, and he interrupted Archer, then waved his hand and commanded, "Ho-Oh, Sacred Flame."
"throat!"
Phoenix flapped its wings, cried out to the sky, and then breathed colorful flames at Archer.
"What!" Archer's expression changed. He didn't dare to take the hit head-on, so he jumped up and dodged.
But the seven-colored flames seemed to have the ability to track, and they turned around and continued to chase Archer.
"Varied.
Without his Noble Phantasm, Archer couldn't defend himself and was engulfed by the flames.
Flames coiled around Archer, as if consciously sticking to him, then completely enveloping him and scorching everything on his body.
"Ah—!"
In an instant, Archer's golden armor was completely burned away, and the flames began to scorch his body.
"Don't look, it's not suitable for children." Shichen appeared in front of Saber at just the right moment and covered her eyes.
"I didn't look! And I didn't see anything in the first place!" Saber said coquettishly, feeling a little helpless about Shichen's behavior.
She was right. The flames were like Archer's clothes, enveloping him. Except for those who knew him and could vaguely make out his features, no one else could see anything.
However, the time allows one to clearly see everything.
As expected of the oldest king, his resources were considerable.
Shi Chen had no interest in looking at his thing, so he shifted his gaze to his head.
Archer's entire body was already charred black, and his head was completely bald.
He kept screaming and howling in despair, but no one came to his aid; not even ordinary people would appear here.
When Shichen summoned the Phoenix King, he had already set up a barrier, so no one could possibly disturb him.
Shichen had mixed feelings of admiration and dislike for Archer. He was certainly qualified to be a king, and even had his moments of charm.
Unfortunately, there are times when I make a mistake.
It seems like all the kings had this common problem later on.
Shi Chen didn't care about any of that. Since Archer had something he disliked, he might as well just kill him.
Anyway, they're just heroic spirits.
As he pondered how to defeat Archer directly, he suddenly shouted, "Kirei! What are you doing? Aren't you going to save me?"
"Um?"
Suddenly, Archer vanished right before Shichen's eyes, leaving only the still-burning seven-colored flames.
"That's... the power of Command Seals?" Saber realized the reason.
"Yes, only the power of Command Seals remains." Toki nodded.
Command Spells are indeed amazing. Even if the Master and the Servant are in different places, the Master can use a Command Spell to summon the Servant to his side in time.
Shi Chen never expected that he could actually shake off the Phoenix King's flames.
But it's not a big deal. Archer is no longer a threat, so it doesn't matter if he lives.
Now, he can only barely survive.
If you have the chance to meet him, kill him immediately; if you don't, let him live a wretched life.
He is suffering now, even in life.
What Shichen was more concerned about was that Archer had just called Kirei.
Kirei Kotomine: The two of them have still colluded, so Tokiomi Tohsaka must have been sent.
Everything that was going to happen has happened, and it's about time to end this Holy Grail War. After all, whether or not we are the final victors is not that important.
I just don't know if Saber can accept it.
Thinking of this, Shi Chen couldn't help but look at her.
"Hmm? What's wrong?" Saber noticed her gaze.
Shi Chen shook his head and took her hand, saying, "Let's go back first; the camping trip isn't over yet."
"What should we do about Archer?" Saber couldn't help but ask.
"That's not important anymore. I have something to tell you, and I hope you're mentally prepared."
"What?" Saber looked at him in confusion.
"Let's go back first."
Back at the campsite, Shichen discovered that Irisviel and the others were still awake.
"dad!"
"elder brother!"
As soon as the two little ones saw the time, they ran towards him.
Shichen released Saber's hand and happily hugged the two little ones who had rushed into his arms.
"Shichen, Saber, are you alright?" Irisviel walked over and asked with concern.
"What could possibly be wrong with us?" Shi Chen smiled.
"It's good that you're alright." Irisviel breathed a sigh of relief and smiled faintly.
"Since everything's alright, I'm going to sleep now... Haa~" Frillie yawned and wobbled into her tent.
Shi Chen shook his head helplessly, not caring at all.
He then escorted Illya and Shiki back to their tents, had Irisviel sleep with them, and then returned to Saber's tent with her.
Irisviel naturally knew what to do at that time and thoughtfully gave the two of them some private space.
Crawling into the tent, Shi Chen comfortably lay on the blankets and took a deep breath of the fragrance.
Saber was used to it. She changed back into her original white clothes, took off her coat, and sat down next to Shichen.
"Shichen, what do you want to tell me?"
"Are we jumping straight to the point? No foreplay at all?"
"What?" Saber definitely didn't understand what he meant.
"Fine, I'll just tell you directly. Come on, lie down next to me." Shi Chen rolled over and lay down, then patted the empty space next to him.
Saber pursed her lips, lay down, and faced the hour.
"So cute." Tokiomi stared at Saber's face and suddenly said.
"Is that all you wanted to say?" Saber frowned, her face slightly flushed.
"I couldn't help it, it just came to mind."
"Stop keeping me in suspense."
"Alright... Saber, you should know about the Holy Grail's power, right?"
"Yes, it's an all-powerful wish-granting machine; it can grant any wish." Saber nodded, her expression turning serious.
"Do you still want to use it to make that wish?"
"Yes." Saber nodded firmly.
"Sigh, why bother? It's not worth it at all." Shi Chen sighed.
"I know what you mean, but I have no other wish than this one," Saber said slowly.
"Have you ever thought about what if your wish can't come true?"
"Huh?"
