"What a twisted form," Eichi said, looking at Kenjaku's Domain, the Womb Profusion, and the large tree made of countless distorted faces within it.
"Is that so? But I believe it holds the possibility of Cursed Energy," Kenjaku said, extending a hand and lightly tracing finger over each twisted face.
"That's a truly standard villainous statement." Eichi walked over to the throne, sat down directly, and then rested one hand on the armrest, propping up his face.
"Really? Just a few seconds ago, you were the one who fit the villain's description better," Kenjaku retorted with a smile.
"That ominous form, wrapped in pitch-black shadows—how could it not look more like a villain than me?"
Both Domains changed at the same time.
In Kenjaku's Domain, twisted figures appeared one after another beside him.
Beside Eichi, a white-haired, red-clad figure appeared instantly.
The moment Heroic Spirit Emiya appeared, he raised his black longbow and shot an arrow towards the twisted tree in Kenjaku's Domain.
The crimson arrow sliced through the air, instantly reaching the giant twisted tree.
Kenjaku moved.
Under his command, several Cursed Spirits closest to the arrow immediately blocked the tree.
The arrow finally stopped after piercing through several Cursed Spirits.
However, Heroic Spirit Emiya had already nocked a second arrow onto his bow.
A pitch-black arrow, covered in sharp barbs, was shot.
With his guard up, Kenjaku naturally wouldn't let Eichi succeed.
Kenjaku pressed both hands down, and a sudden surge of gravity pushed the dark arrow towards the ground.
However, as the pitch-black arrow approached the ground, its direction suddenly changed.
It traced a beautiful U-shaped trajectory in the air, shooting towards the twisted giant tree once more.
"Akahara Hound?" Kenjaku immediately realized what it was.
"If that's the case, then I'll nullify you." Kenjaku increased the surrounding gravity.
Then, a large, pot-bellied Cursed Spirit suddenly dropped from the sky.
After entering the range of Kenjaku's gravity, it suddenly accelerated.
It directly pinned the Akahara Hound beneath it.
"Broken Phantasm." Seeing his attack obstructed, Heroic Spirit Emiya's expression remained unchanged; he simply nocked a third arrow onto his bow.
Then, he coldly uttered four words.
Violent magical energy fluctuations emanated from beneath the Cursed Spirit.
Kenjaku immediately realized what this was.
"Broken Phantasm? Do you think I wouldn't be prepared for that trick?"
Whether during the star plasma vessel incident or on the Sendai battlefield, Heroic Spirit Emiya had unreservedly shown the world his unique skill of firing missiles from a longbow.
Kenjaku was naturally aware of this unconventional use of the Broken Phantasm Cursed Technique.
Kenjaku reversed his hands; his hands, which had been pressing down towards the ground, now pushed outwards forcefully towards Eichi's Domain.
The next second, the Cursed Spirit, which had been tightly restraining the Akahara Hound within its body, rapidly fell towards Eichi's Domain.
Boom.
Broken Phantasm exploded in the middle of their two Domains.
The strong winds ruffled Eichi's and Kenjaku's hair.
"You changed the direction of gravity?" Eichi looked at Kenjaku in surprise.
"Indeed. Now it's my turn." Kenjaku gave a wicked smile, and then the Cursed Technique's effect expanded further.
Instantly, a large number of Cursed Spirits rushed into Eichi's Domain at extremely high speed.
"Hassan of the Hundred Personas." A muscular Hassan, clearly highly skilled in gymnastics, suddenly appeared in the Domain.
Following him, a tall, slender female figure with long purple hair tied in a high ponytail, completely clad in black and wearing a skull mask, also appeared beneath the throne.
Hassan of the Hundred Personas, one of the successive Old Men of the Mountain Hassans, was the nineteenth leader of the Hassan's deadly assassins.
Although referred to as the Hundred Personas, he was actually a person with multiple personality disorder.
His Noble Phantasm was the B+ ranked Anti-Personnel Noble Phantasm, Delusional Illusion.
Based on his multiple personalities in life, when multiple Souls existed within one individual, he could disperse his own Soul, achieving a state where, although only one person, he manifested as multiple Heroic Spirits.
Due to the differences in each personality, these personalities dispersed by the Noble Phantasm varied in height, weight, build, and gender, encompassing all ages.
At the boundary of the two Domains, Hassan of the Hundred Personas clashed with the rushing Cursed Spirits.
"Medusa." As the words fell, the third Heroic Spirit appeared.
"Bellerophon!" The tall, blindfolded elder sister immediately activated her Noble Phantasm upon appearing.
Beneath the reins, a pure white Pegasus emerged from the magic circle.
Medusa rode the Pegasus high into the sky, and after a brief charge and acceleration, she plunged into Kenjaku's Domain.
"This is really troublesome," Kenjaku murmured, his brows slightly furrowed.
He then began to manually control the Domain's attacks.
Medusa, who was charging, changed her tactics after realizing she couldn't Breakthrough Kenjaku's interception.
Medusa charged again.
However, this time her target was Kenjaku.
Kenjaku immediately launched an attack.
The redirected gravity pressed down on Medusa.
The Pegasus's charge was greatly weakened.
However, at some point, Medusa's blindfold had disappeared.
Kenjaku, noticing this, was greatly alarmed and immediately averted his gaze.
But he was still affected somewhat.
Kenjaku felt his movements stiffen for a moment.
Even the flow of his Cursed Energy became sluggish.
Meanwhile, Medusa, riding the pure white Pegasus, had already charged in front of Kenjaku.
'If that's the case!' Kenjaku gritted his teeth, and his right hand, enveloped in Blood Manipulation, reached directly for the Pegasus.
At the same time, Kenjaku placed a binding vow.
He transferred the Cursed Energy originally used to protect his right arm to his entire body, sacrificing the defense of his right arm for an increase in overall defensive power.
Bang.
Naturally, Kenjaku's right hand was blown apart by the Pegasus's impact.
"Blood Manipulation: Crimson Bind!" The blood scattered in the air suddenly swirled and converged.
Finally, it transformed into several ropes, successfully binding Medusa and the Pegasus.
However, although the Pegasus was bound, the power of its previous charged attack had not dissipated.
Thus, Medusa, riding the bound Pegasus, crashed into Kenjaku like a car accident.
Kenjaku also used his Cursed Technique and Cursed Energy to defend with all his might, continuously attacking Medusa.
"Hoo, hoo." Kenjaku stood up, using his left hand to pull out the short sword, which resembled a chained stake, that was embedded in his body.
Looking at Medusa, who was disappearing on the ground, Kenjaku sighed.
"Just one and I'm already in such a sorry state?" Kenjaku healed his broken right hand with Reverse Cursed Technique while looking up in Eichi's direction.
An incoming arrow was blocked by a crab-shaped Cursed Spirit.
And in front of the crab Cursed Spirit, a blue figure holding a crimson spear had already stepped into his Domain.
"You actually dealt with a temporary Heroic Spirit so quickly?" Eichi looked at the disheveled Kenjaku in surprise.
Beside him, the temporary Heroic Spirit Medea had already been summoned.
Temporary Heroic Spirits were not official Servants summoned with chess pieces after all.
But their strength was not to be underestimated.
"Someone just called me crazy, I think." Eichi looked at Kenjaku, speechless.
First, he used the redirected gravity to reduce Medusa's attack, then directly sacrificed an arm, using a life-for-a-limb method to take down Medusa, who was a temporary Heroic Spirit.
And he was also stabbed by Medusa, almost getting his brain pierced.
Medusa's attack was aimed at his head, but Kenjaku dodged quickly, so it hit his shoulder.
Does such a person have the right to call others crazy?
