Kurumi Tokisaki's Planar Journey - Chapter 487
“Boom!—”
The incoming rocks were shattered into powder! The compressed air swirled outward in a spiral pattern!
Even with the vision of a Heroic Spirit, one could only see it for a moment!
The magical impact struck the ‘Gordius Wheel,’ the faint divine power causing the bulls to become agitated!
The left bull rammed into the right, and the right bull crashed into the stone wall!
The shattered rocks turned into tiny pebbles, and the rear wheels continued to spark, gradually slowing the Gordius Wheel!
Inside the chariot was the third-rate magician, Waver Velvet. No matter how careless Iskandar was, he wouldn’t forget his little Master still in the chariot.
“Iskandar!—”
Artoria’s angry shout made the still-dazed Waver shiver. “Did we… did we offend her somehow?”
Iskandar laughed heartily. “To respond to provocation is the duty of a king! A king does not fear battle!”
“But… but! Saber seems extremely angry; there must be some misunderstanding!”
“No buts!” Iskandar’s aura remained steady as he parked the Gordius Wheel to the side. “No matter what, let’s first see what this little girl is capable of!”
“Iskandar! As a king, kidnapping someone else’s wife is despicable!”
Standing on the Gordius Wheel, Iskandar frowned. Although he had decided to fight Saber, being wrongly accused still irritated him.
“Saber, I have never done such a thing.”
“Hmph!”
Artoria dismounted from the heavy motorcycle, her magical energy surging as her armored dress appeared. She lightly grasped the invisible Excalibur hidden within Invisible Air!
Calling him by his name was a great disrespect to a king!
However, the abduction of Irisviel had altered Artoria’s perception of Iskandar.
“Iskandar! If you have any shred of royal dignity left, return Irisviel to me! Let’s have a fair fight!”
“Irisviel?” Iskandar scratched his head. “Do you mean that lady dressed all in white?”
“Stop pretending!”
Artoria raised Excalibur in front of her, her gaze sharp, ready to strike at any moment!
“Artoria, it seems Irisviel is not with the Conqueror King.”
At this moment, the Master-Servant pair noticed the figure emerging from the shadows—the witch who had burned the sea demon into nothingness!
Uh… maybe ‘witch’ wasn’t the right term. What should she be called? Saintess? Divine Lady?
They realized they didn’t even know her name!
“Tsk!”
Artoria stepped forward, her abundant magical energy making Iskandar cautious.
Irisviel wasn’t on the Gordius Wheel, but Artoria couldn’t be sure. She had clearly seen Iskandar abduct Irisviel!
This was unforgivable!
It was evident that the Knight King’s adrenaline had only surged after the long chase. The night wind had not calmed her down; instead, it had heightened her sensitivity.
Kurumi, sitting sideways on the motorcycle seat, couldn’t help but cover her forehead. Despite her efforts to suppress ‘charm,’ Artoria’s judgment was still lacking.
Is this truly a king? And not just any king, but the legendary King of Britain?
“Boom!—”
The gusting wind blew Kurumi’s twin tails backward, her forelocks fluttering, revealing another side of her stunning face. The golden clock in her eye was particularly striking under the moonlight!
However, with Assassin dead, no one could witness this anomaly.
The mountain road was in ruins, filled with chaotic magical energy. Artoria’s anxiety was palpable. This style of combat was a waste of energy and time!
Her pupils narrowed, and with a determined look, she used her powerful sword aura to push back Iskandar before raising her holy sword high!
Her entire magical energy poured into the sword, stripping away the Invisible Air layer by layer!
The golden light from the sword’s blade was dazzling, illuminating the king who held it high!
The swirling currents of magical energy surrounded her, her golden hair fluttering. Her emerald eyes were filled with unprecedented seriousness!
With the golden sword blade before her, Iskandar’s expression changed. If he were hit directly, he might have to return to the Throne of Heroes!
Taking advantage of Artoria’s charging state, Iskandar patted Waver hard.
“Boy! Hold on tight!”
Waver, already pale, didn’t know if it was from the golden light or his own terror.
Seeing Iskandar’s intention to retreat, Artoria gritted her teeth, her violent magical energy rising to another level!
“Ex—calibur!!!”
The golden energy stream completely covered the mountainside road!
The platinum light flashed for a moment, Kurumi’s hair flying around her forehead, but even so, the clock-like pupils seemed perfectly natural in this scene.
“Tsk, tsk, tsk~”
Kurumi clicked her tongue and approached Artoria. The quick and powerful release of her Noble Phantasm had left her momentarily exhausted.
However, this showed how low Artoria’s guard against Kurumi had become!
The unintentional influence of ‘charm’ was truly terrifying!
Artoria stood on the road, panting heavily, looking at the disheveled Iskandar in the ravine below. She gritted her teeth.
The attack hadn’t hit Iskandar directly, only grazing him! The Gordius Wheel, with its legendary enhancements, had allowed him to evade her Noble Phantasm.
The mountainside road looked like it had been ravaged by a landslide. Kurumi placed her small hand on Artoria.
The unique conversion effect of divine spiritual energy quickly replenished Artoria’s magic!
This rapid restoration was something Artoria had never experienced before!
She couldn’t help but moan softly, her face flushing.
Looking again at the still-motionless Iskandar, she asked, “Kurumi, can you help me find out who really kidnapped Irisviel?”
“Are you calm now?”
Artoria took a deep breath, pushing the motorcycle in front of Kurumi.
“Alright, follow me this way.”
The motorcycle’s speed matched their earlier pace. Iskandar glanced at the disheveled Waver, covered in leaves, and sighed.
‘What a mess!’
Meanwhile, Kariya Matou, collaborating with Kirei Kotomine, looked at the beautiful woman lying on the ground with no emotion in his heart.
“Now, can you tell me her location?”
