Even though Waver loudly shouted to stop the horse, it seemed to have no effect. Alexander, riding the lightning-flashing Bucephalus, reached an altitude of thousands of meters in just a few breaths. The ascent speed was terrifying.
If it weren't for the consideration that Waver couldn't withstand higher acceleration, the ascent speed would have been even faster.
Let alone Waver, a novice Magus, even a seasoned pilot wouldn't be able to withstand this level of acceleration; they would probably pass out instantly.
This almost vertical ascent trajectory caused Waver's butt to even lift off the horse's back midway. Waver almost thought he was going to fall and die, but luckily Alexander quickly grabbed him.
Otherwise, falling from this height… Waver would probably become Waver-cake.
Unlike husband and wife lung slices having no husband and wife, and wife cakes having no wife, Waver-cake would definitely be full of Waver.
"Hold on tight, Master!" Alexander casually placed Waver behind him, then pulled the reins and continued to fly into the distance. "I'm speeding up!!!"
"No! Let me down! It's too fast, I'll die!" Looking at the tiny lights on the ground, Waver was so scared he almost wet his pants. He could only use all his strength to tightly hug Alexander to prevent himself from falling. The moment he was lifted off the horse's back almost gave him a heart attack.
Fortunately, Alexander was small enough to hug. Well… although his own height was only 157cm, just 6cm taller than Alexander's 151cm.
"Speaking of which, no one is fighting, is this not the Holy Grail War?" While maintaining an extremely high speed, Alexander let go of the reins and turned to look to his lower left, but he didn't find any signs of other Servants fighting, which made him a little disappointed.
In his opinion, the Holy Grail War should be a true, no-holds-barred duel, just like the Olympics.
"Of course! This is the Holy Grail War! Besides someone as single-minded as you, who would run out and challenge others to a fight?!"
"Also, the Holy Grail War is a hidden battle; if ordinary people discover it, there will be big problems!"
As he spoke, Waver suddenly noticed Alexander's extremely dangerous actions and quickly shouted, "Hey, hey, hey! Drive properly! We'll die if we fall!"
"Don't worry, my Riding skill is A+! Forget one-handed driving, I can perfectly control my mount even if I'm standing on my head with my back to the front!" After saying that, Alexander casually let go of the reins and prepared to stand up. "Well, I'll show you a demonstration."
"No! Be normal! I… I'm scared!!!"
Seeing Alexander's actions, Waver was instantly scared to tears, even feeling like he couldn't hold back his bladder.
Originally, after learning that the Servant he summoned was one of the four great military commanders, a man who had established a super empire stretching from Greece in the west, to the Indus River in the east, to all of Egypt in the south, and to the Black Sea and Armenia in the north in just ten years, he thought he would be particularly steady.
However… after only a day of personal contact, Waver had completely confirmed that this was a mischievous child!
A mischievous child beyond mischievous. To be honest, besides the height, Waver couldn't see any resemblance between this child and Alexander.
"Well, then I'll demonstrate it after we land… Hmm? Master, there's a Servant's reaction!" Alexander had just settled back on the horse's back and was about to land to give Waver a demonstration when suddenly, he felt an extremely strong Servant reaction, and he immediately became excited.
And, if there were no surprises, this reaction was directed at him.
"Master, you see, I told you! This is war, and sure enough, someone is declaring war on us! Since they've already invited us, why wouldn't we go?!"
"They're not declaring war, they're responding to your challenge…"
"No matter what, let's charge!" As soon as Alexander finished speaking, he pulled the reins, made Bucephalus turn his head, and galloped towards the challenging Servant.
During the charge, Bucephalus's speed became faster and faster, and the lightning covering his body increased, to the point where his entire body was enveloped in a layer of lightning 'armor'!
If Bucephalus, cruising at high altitude before, was a bat hidden in the night, then now Bucephalus had transformed into a meteor. On the street, due to the influence of the lights, it wasn't particularly conspicuous to pedestrians, but it was enough to be captured by the naked eye.
But for other participants of the Holy Grail War, it was as conspicuous as the sun in broad daylight; not seeing it would be equivalent to being blind.
If the Archer-class Servant in this Holy Grail War were a bit less honorable and launched a sneak attack on Waver and Alexander at this moment, it would probably be a hit every time. Fortunately, no Servants launched an attack along the way.
Relying on the Rider class's extremely high mobility, in just a dozen seconds, Alexander, riding his warhorse Bucephalus, was about to reach the location of the Servant's reaction.
At this time, the hostile Servant was standing in the open space in front of the gate of Homurahara Academy, quietly waiting for Alexander's arrival.
"Oh, I can see them!" Alexander had clearly seen the person 'declaring war on him,' a woman in crimson battle attire. "We're landing, Master!"
Accompanied by thunder, Alexander rode Bucephalus and landed 'smoothly' in the open space in front of the Homurahara Academy gate, directly cracking the entire ground and kicking up a huge cloud of dust. Even the school gate sign, dozens of meters away, fell to the ground due to the violent tremor.
If an uninformed person saw the scene, they might think some student didn't want to go to school and came overnight to blow up the school gate.
"Have you finally arrived? What an arrogant entrance, but from now on, you will have no capital for arrogance! You will fall at my… my…?"
Looking at Alexander who had landed in front of her, the crimson-clad female Servant, without waiting for the dust to clear, raised her head and began to utter harsh words. However… when she saw the true face of the boy on horseback, the harsh words she had prepared in her mouth suddenly choked.
"You… you are…"
