Hollow/FGO Chapter 30 (Patreon)

The following morning was obviously tense, already we knew the final battle was alreadly upon us. And with Gudako in good shape and her having some gems now filled up with extra mana I diverted from my own absorbition of the mana in the air. She could actually support the use of a few Noble Phantasms without her Magic Circuits frying her internally.

My I looked towards Paris with closed eyes as I felt the figure of the great dragon Fafnir stiring with the dawning light with my soul and I spoke up to the silent figures who were looking out in the distance as well. "I will be the distraction... Jeanne and I will face the twisted Jeanne and Fafnir while you all must kill Giles the Bluebeard the moment you see him."

I opened my eyes and looked at Ritsuka and said strongly. "Gudako, he has Prelati's book... He can open this world to being invaded by eldritch entities, all of you have to collapse onto him with your Noble Phantasms even if it's inefficient."

The assembled Servant's nodded in understanding and agreement as should Giles and Jeanne be the only servants still in play on the enemies side, Tiamat and Artoria Alter would make short work of them to say nothing of also having Mozart, Marie Antoinette, and Mash.

Though Mash with myself, Tiamat and Artoria being such heavy hitters. She was firmly sticking to defending Gudako at all times from the likes of an Archer or Assassin type which was the smart play.

"Anything other plans to be made?" Mash asked nervously and in answer, Olga's voice came out of Ritsuka's bracelet.

"There shouldn't be any need for such plans, Jake and Jeanne even if Jeanne is heavily weakened after losing much of her Saint Graph will be more than an ample distraction for the Wyvrens, undead and Fafnir. So its just up to you guys to deal with Giles after he starts everything."

I nodded and looking into the distance I said plainly. "Then lets go. Jeanne you focus on the undead, I got the Wyvrens in the sky and Fafnir until more come out." I said picking up the beautiful french saintess in a princess carry as I took to the air as Gudako got onto Marie's Noble Phantasm horse to enter Paris from the side to enter the royal palace.

While carrying Jeanne across the burnt-out forest towards the burnt-out remains of Paris she visibly looked pained seeing the destroyed countryside that I knew not a single damned person survived this close to the army of wyverns and Fafnir to say nothing of Jeanne's twisted mad servants who did her bidding.

But I couldn't console her for her pain and I just silently sped up my flying run through the air through a series of Sonido's that made the air crackle. "Alright, you jump in when you can." I said dropping Jeanne a couple of feet to the ground making her curvacious body bounce with the motions making my lips twitch but didn't notice as she was busy spinning her flag around with her face pursed in concentration as she nodded.

With a crackle of sound, I used another Sonido to disappear away from Jeanne and once I got away from her I looked towards where I knew Fafnir was and I whispered a mental apology to Ritsuka as I raised a finger that bloomed with loudly crackling purple energy. "Cero Oscuras!" I whispered and the compressed beam of spiritual energy blasted off into the distance with a howl of the air being rent apart by the Hollow Technique.

My grand Cero flew across Paris like a great eraser wiping out everything in its path as the beam that was as wide as a large skyscraper slammed into Fafnir who was sleeping in a large hole he had dug himself. "Come on out Fafnir, you can't always be a greedy dragon dwarf who hides in his damned hole!" I roared powerfully with my spiritual energy enhancing the volume of my voice leaving no one in the city unaware of my presence.

Already I could feel Fafnir's mounting fury as the ground rumbled as the great dragon threw multiple tons of rubble off his form. And beyond just Fafnir's twisted soul, I could feel Giles and Jeanne coming out of the depths of the French royal palace as Gudako went for them with her servants.

'Huh, Giles and Jeanne are sticking together... Well thats fine, so long as I keep Fafnir and the other mobs from messing with them. With Tiamat and Artoria, Giles and that fake Jeanne will be dealt with!' I thought with my spiritual energy flaring into a pillar of power as I roared out loud with Fafnir coming into sight and his wyverns began rushing towards me as well.

And he met my roar of challenge with his own, the great jet-black dragon with glowing silver chest scales flew towards me with hate in his eyes and I flew towards him with God-Killer singing its blood lust for more dragon blood as the blade howled with the wind as I teleported on top of the dragon and began stabbing the shit of it and making it sping through the air in agony as God Killer used its Dragon Killer aspects to tear apart Fafnir's essence as a dragon.

On the other side of things, Gudako yelled out. "Go British king, kill the rebel French!"

Artoria's face twitched but she rolled her eyes and the ground under her feet cratered as the great swordswoman slammed Excalibur Morgan into the dark Jeanne's flag with Jeanne's form was slammed backward as Artoria used a Mana Burst to firmly get the advantage of strength in the opening blow.

But before she could give any further orders Tiamat collapsed into a pile of liquid mud that splattered everywhere making her blink but then a scream rang out as a man was blasted through a wall as Tiamat casually rose up from the ground from another room from where she had teleported through her Primordial Sea's Mud. "You will die painfully." Tiamat trilled to everyone's ears.

And in Gudako's gatcha rotten mind, she had a thought rise up that went along the lines of. 'Uh oh... The original primordial mommy is pissed that Giles is a pedo and killed countless children."
