Chapter 23: The Hero of Giving

An indiscriminate attack by Cú Chulainn alter with a very large range.

Leonidas, who was fighting at the gates, and the unknown berserkers were also swept in, and it was useless to continue the battle, and the continuous magic shockwave dug out an irregular depression in the entire earth, and the castle, the ground, the soldiers, and the servants were all evaporated.

In the midst of this indiscriminate attack, Matthew was held by Skaha along with Fujimaru Rika because the shield was placed on the ground and could not be used as a defensive shield.

The space where the three of them were located was a barren place, the only place that seemed intact.

Rika Fujimaru blinked several times, and finally got used to the excess light.

"Arjuna?!"

The first thing I saw was a black-haired and white-clothed figure, quietly blocking the three of them.

At some point, Arjuna, who was supposed to fight to the death with Karna, returned.

Battle with Karna...... It was he who lost.

If it's a confrontation in the Age of Mythology, then it's a different matter, at that time, the two will definitely take out all the treasures they have for each other and have a high-level battle, right?

However, Arjuna is now an archer, and compared to close combat, the weapon is only a bow and arrow, and he is good at long distance. Against Lancer's Karna, he himself suffered a big loss, plus Lancer Karna's treasure is a [one-hit kill] treasure, if you liberate your real name, Arjuna will die if she is hit, and being able to hold on for so long is enough to show Arjuna's strength.

Ordinary archers against spearmen of the level of Karna are afraid that they will be killed in an instant.

But even so, the scales of victory tipped in favor of Karne, and continued to tilt until victory was achieved.

[ ] When the battle was over, Arjuna fell to the ground, and Karna pointed his spear at him.

This situation is very similar to that of the past. It's just that it was Arjuna who held a bow and arrow and aimed at Karna, who was under a curse and couldn't move.

Karna did not drop the gun.

"Why. Don't you hate me? Don't you want to, kill me? ”

Arjuna couldn't understand.

Before they died, both wanted to kill each other.

In the end, it was Arjuna who killed Karna in a very dishonorable way, causing him to regret it for half his life.

At the same time, Karna must have been unwilling.

So, now that he has lost, why didn't he ......

Could it be that the hero who gives alms doesn't even have the emotion of hatred to the point of wanting to kill his opponent?!

Arjuna was furious.

“…… That's what I thought until just now. ”

Karna said in a calm tone.

It's not that it's something that lets go, looks open, or something like that.

Karna also knew that if he had just stabbed down with one shot and eliminated Arjuna, then he and he would be redeemed.

The unspeakable feelings in my chest should be calmed. And Arjuna's perennial regret will disappear because he killed him.

But......

Karna didn't make a move.

It's not sympathy, it's not desirelessness.

Karna thought for a moment, then reluctantly sorted out a sentence.

"You're not, Arjuna I know."

The Servant is the side of the Heroic Spirit, and indeed, it cannot be called "complete". It's like a person's finger can't be called a human on its own.

But that's not what Karna meant.

"Arjuna, a God-given hero. It is the hero who has everything, and is indifferent because he is rich. You, it's different. ”

What made Karna stop the gun was a scene he had just seen.

"The battle must be won."

The orange-haired woman said this and turned to leave.

Arjuna bowed deeply to her figure.

When he raised his head, the man's face had a satisfied and happy smile.

That kind of smile didn't exist in Arjuna's body.

A hero who has everything, and because he has everything, he becomes nothing. Arjuna was supposed to be a hero with no change in feelings.

The reason why he ignored honor and killed himself was also because at that time, he just obeyed the arrangement of fate and accepted the [Victory of God].

And yet he smiled so contentedly.

This man is no longer the Arjuna he knows.

He was, the servant of the master.

Not Arjuna who killed himself.

"Go find your Master. This time, it was me who won. ”

Karna spoke, not dropping the spear that had killed him. If he is a hero of giving, then he gave him Arjuna's name.

“…… Karna, you ......."

Arjuna originally wanted to quarrel with him, but Karna just said calmly: "You have one, a very good master. I'd love to talk to her if I get the chance. ”

“…… Your words, there will definitely be such an opportunity. ”

Ah Zhou vaguely understood what he meant, and put away his hostility.

"This is not forgiveness. It's not an escape. Arjuna, one day, I will fight you again. ”

Karna added in his heart: At least, before that day, I wanted to know what kind of person would make you look like that.

And...... Is his feelings for Arjuna hate...... Is it jealousy...... Or is it something else...... Karna himself did not know. If you have a good chat with that lord and put your heart to heart, maybe you will make progress......

The two who have won and lost quickly rushed to the place of the decisive battle.

Finally, it was finally arrived just in time for the liberation of the Noble Phantasm in Cú Chulainn.

Arjuna couldn't help but say, directly in front of the master, liberated the treasure, destroyed the hand shadow of the god, condensed the magic power in front of him, and intercepted the exaggerated magic explosion of Cú Chulainn.

(Sure enough, Arjuna is not the Arjuna I know.) It's not [Mission Priority] or [Victory Priority], now he will give priority to protecting that person. will show a warm expression because of that person. )

Karna is different.

Karna is always the type that prioritizes tasks, and he will definitely do his best to do what others ask him to do.

The thing that the President King asked him to do was to obtain the Holy Grail.

So, he put away his god-killing spear, put on his golden armor, and flew towards the center of the explosion, towards Cú Chulainn, and snatched the Holy Grail.

Having lost the Holy Grail, Cú Chulainn's regeneration speed could not keep up with the destruction at all, and without even a last word, it disappeared.

Karna's golden armor was a testament to the Sun God's bloodline, which could greatly reduce the damage received, and against the shockwave of Cúchulainn's alter, he stood in the explosion, watching Arjuna's body turn into golden particles as his magic power was exhausted.

Same as Karna thought.

Arjuna didn't look at herself, but turned her head and looked at Rika Fujimaru. Although I can only see one side face, I ...... It was a calm expression that was calm and calm.

He swept around, and very few survived on the battlefield. Matthew and Rika Fujimaru and Skaha are protected by Arjuna and are still alive. Nero was attacked indiscriminately and returned directly to Chaldea.

Hercules' entire chest was scorched, revealing dark red flesh, and Yagi Yukisai was the least injured of them all because he hadn't untied the red sea beast armor.

"Holy Grail, I take it. O savior. Please come to the White House, and President Wang will be happy to meet you again. ”

After saying this, Karna held the Holy Grail in his hand and flew in the direction of the east without looking back.
