Ever since Martha started getting serious, Lilith had been like a small boat in a storm, liable to collapse at any moment under Martha's rain-like punches.
However, Lilith managed to endure by relying on her Sadistic Constitution. As time passed, Lilith's attributes also began to continuously increase along with her Sadistic Constitution.
Martha sent Lilith flying with another punch. This time, however, Martha didn't choose to pursue, but instead stared at Lilith as she climbed up from the ground and spoke.
"How much have your stats been reinforced now? Forget it! The Master's side is still in danger, I can't just be having fun by myself! Come on, let's settle this in one blow! I was originally hoping you would surpass me in stats! It seems there's no more time."
At this moment, Lilith, influenced by the side effects of her reinforced Sadistic Constitution, glared at Martha in a rage and unhesitatingly released her true Noble Phantasm used for combat.
"This pain is like the stars!"
Modeled after the Goddess Athena's spear, it was originally a combined Noble Phantasm of Passionlip and Lilith. Using the space compression of Passionlip's Trash & Crash as a Catapult, it is an ultra-long-range sniping Noble Phantasm that fires Lilith, who has turned her entire body into a Noble Phantasm through fluid transformation.
However, Passionlip, who was currently engaged in battle with Chloe, could not use this Noble Phantasm together with Lilith. Since Lilith was using it alone, the rank of this Noble Phantasm dropped from EX to B+.
Martha smiled as she watched Lilith, who had turned into a meteor, charging toward her. She raised her right hand and roared, rushing forward against the wind pressure generated by Lilith.
"Iron Fist Divine Judgment!"
Compared to using Tarasque, Martha actually had more confidence in her own fists. Having not fought so heartily in a long time, Martha brought out one hundred and twenty percent of her capabilities with respect and swung her strongest punch.
When Martha's fist collided with Lilith, the world went silent. The massive impact force blew away everything nearby in an instant, and even the air was knocked away by the collision.
Because the location of Martha and Lilith's collision was in a vacuum, their clash presented a bizarre scene, much like the old silent film era.
However, the overflowing energy from their collision violently broke free from their constraints and became a symbol of destruction, flying away from the impact site and shattering everything in its path.
All of this happened in a mere instant, and as the air rushed back, a massive roar followed. Both Martha and Lilith were sent flying back.
Soon, however, Martha climbed up from the ground while rubbing her wrists, while Lilith seemed to have fallen into a coma.
Returning to the time when the battle had just begun.
Passionlip looked with some annoyance at Chloe, who had been drawn in by her Masochistic Nature, and opened her giant claws to grab at the small Chloe.
Chloe nimbly dodged Passionlip's giant claws. With a tap of her toes on a claw, she leaped into the air, manifested a black longbow, and fired several Spiral Swords toward Passionlip's chest.
Passionlip raised a claw and scooped up the Spiral Swords shot at her, then looked somewhat confusedly at the laughing Chloe.
"Hahahaha, you're finished! Behold my Broken Phantasm!"
To Chloe's surprise, however, nothing happened. Passionlip opened her giant claws to reveal several square cubes in front of Chloe, then placed the cubes into the Imaginary Space pocket located at her chest.
This was precisely the cheat skill 'Trash & Crash' evolved from Passionlip's 'Monstrous Strength' skill. No matter how large the capacity, as long as it could be held in her hands, she could use those claws to crush and compress it. The compressed object would become a square cube with five-centimeter sides, and its mass could only be lightened to about one-tenth of its pre-compression state. The compressed items would later be treated as trash data.
In the center of Passionlip's chest was the Imaginary Space pocket 'Breast Valley,' which temporarily stored and kept unnecessary data files. As long as it was trash data she had broken, no matter how large the capacity, it could be stored infinitely; even things exceeding her own memory capacity could be discarded here.
It was the combination of these two skills that allowed Passionlip to easily handle most attacks, and Chloe's Spiral Swords had also been compressed into trash cubes by Passionlip.
Passionlip looked at Chloe, whose mouth was twitching, and raised her left hand. Then, with a crisp click, Passionlip's left claw detached from her arm on its own, like in an old mecha manga, and flew toward Chloe at high speed.
At the same time, Passionlip also stepped forward, charging toward Chloe behind the giant claw.
"Oh no! This opponent is really troublesome!"
Chloe rolled to avoid the flying giant claw and then narrowly dodged the incoming Passionlip.
However, the giant claw soon flew back again, causing a bleeding wound to appear on Chloe's back before she could adjust her posture.
Enduring the pain in her back, Chloe rolled several times nearby. After creating some distance, she quickly threw the twin swords in her hands at Passionlip, while simultaneously manifesting another pair of twin swords and throwing them as well.
"Triple-Linked Crane Wings!"
Facing the incoming twin swords, Passionlip wasn't worried at all. She casually opened her right claw and, coordinated with the left claw flying in the air, swept away these two pairs of twin swords.
Seeing her Noble Phantasm's activation phase being broken, Chloe still relentlessly continued to throw twin swords. What Chloe didn't know was that at this time, she had been completely drawn in by Passionlip's Masochistic Nature, becoming single-mindedly focused on teaching Passionlip a lesson and thus losing her usual composure and calculation ability.
Just as Chloe was relentlessly throwing twin swords, the giant left claw flying in the air suddenly accelerated and firmly caught Chloe in its grasp.
Passionlip looked at the struggling Chloe caught in her left claw, raised her left arm to reattach the claw, and began to activate Trash & Crash in an attempt to turn Chloe into a cube.
Suddenly, a loud roar from not far away startled Passionlip. Turning her head to look at Lilith's battlefield, Passionlip saw Lilith fly out of the dust and smoke, slamming heavily onto the ground and falling silent.
Anxious about her'sister,' Passionlip couldn't be bothered to deal with Chloe anymore. She casually pressed her claws together, crushing most of the bones in Chloe's body, then tossed Chloe onto the ground and ran nervously toward Lilith.
Having broken free from the influence of Passionlip's Masochistic Nature through the intense pain, Chloe let out a self-deprecating smile and muttered.
"Ah! I was spared, huh! I really am pathetic!"
Fujino stopped her footsteps and looked at Violet, who was struggling to climb up from the ground covered in wounds, showing a hint of an appreciative smile.
Then, a rainbow light flashed in Fujino's eyes. Violet let out a massive scream as she was torn in two at the waist by distortion force, no longer having the strength to struggle and climb up. Only through the fibers occasionally connecting her upper and lower body could one tell that Violet was still alive.
Kiritsugu Emiya, who had been hit by a palm strike from Kinpurotia, struggled to get up from the ground. He could only watch helplessly as Illya, in order to cover for him, was being chased by Kinpurotia in a perilous situation.
Irisviel glanced at the wound-covered Kiritsugu Emiya and the endangered Illya, secretly making up her mind.
Then, Irisviel let out a painful scream, drawing Kiritsugu Emiya's gaze. A figure exceptionally familiar to Kiritsugu Emiya replaced Irisviel and appeared there.
