Chapter 76 - Beasts.



Chapter 76 - Beasts.

The sky brightened and darkened at the same time, two highest forms of mystery in the world were flying above everyone's head. Two Noble Phantasms with a mystery that shouldn't appear normally, even in the age of gods were showing their might in this modern day.

The dragons roared as they burned everything around them with blue flames that represent death, the death of the planet itself. The light was falling from the sky as it scorched even space and time while traveling in a time when the planet had just been born. Like their names, the time of death and the time of birth has come.

"ROAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRR!!!" The dragons' cries filled the sky before they separated into two groups. Four dragons went head-on against the light while the other three circled around it.

The four dragons rammed the light with their heads… The world lost all the sounds for a brief moment before the catastrophe happened.

*BOOOOOOOOOOM!!!* *SCREEEEEEEECCHHH!!!!*

A loud sound like a giant explosion and a hideous screeching was heard all around the planet, as lights and ashes were flying everywhere, completely blinding everyone, and making them unable to see further. However, the dragons were able to stop the light in its place before the three other dragons circled around the light and bite it.

*SCREEEEEEECCHHHH!!!!*

A louder sound than before was echoing in the sky as the dragons' fangs were clashing with the light beam, however, this clash wasn't without consequences.

The light started to decay from the place where it contacted the dragons before it received while the dragons were getting burned before they recovered. If this clash wasn't in the Reality Marble then this will be a real world-ending event.

"This is a lie… Right?" Rin widened her eyes as the shock on her pale face was beyond anything she experienced in her life.

What is this? How can this happen? The Holy Grail War was always such a world-ending event? Rin couldn't stay calm as she was shivering. The pain from her Magic circuits and mana in the air wasn't helping her either.

However, before her thoughts went further she heard a voice next to her " Rin, this isn't the time or the place to freak out, as a magi you should know better"

"Huh?! Of course, I know!!" When it came to the magi's subject, Rin acted like a cat being stepped on her tail as she almost recovered now.

"But don't you see that? How can this… Exist in this era?!" Rin said while looking at the other people around her.

Merlin seemed to be very mysterious to her, she didn't even want to believe that his name was Merlin when she heard Ritsuka calm him.

Nero seems to be the most normal, but suddenly, when the dragons appeared in the sky, her attacks became more powerful as Assassin was getting injured now and then, even with his high presence concealment and skills.

However, Ritsuka was the most scary person for her here for one simple reason, she's the Master of the world-destroying Servant in the sky. Now, she joined Archer in thinking that Ritsuka isn't a human.

"Ah, I can see it clearly, but can you do something about it?" Archer, who finally recovered his calm attitude from the surprise meeting, said with a straight face like he doesn't care a lot.

"Hah?! What with your attitude?!" Rin was mostly shocked by the coldness of this guy before she asked him" Are you servants used to seeing something like this every day?!"

"This is just something we brought to ourselves and bound to happen" Archer answered calmly as he focused his attention on Assassin as he bombarded the place around him each time he tried to run away from Nero. He doesn't know if there are other servants around or they only chose to watch the show, but he doesn't want to take any risk.

"Bound to happen…?" Rin turned her head to see the colossal dragons reaching the scorching light as she didn't have any word to say.

"Hey, Master, do you know the little story about the devil at your side that whispers to you each time to do something bad?" Archer said with a colder voice as Rin was startled slightly before he seemed more serious, he even called her Master without any sarcasm in his tone.

"Hm? Why do you bring stories that even children know, Archer?" Rin grabbed some of her gems as Archer shook his head before " You are the child here"

"Hah?!" Rin snapped again as Archer saw his plan was successful before he said " Those stories can be true and false, but how to say it... Humanity illusions are very strong and they love to blame anything except themselves"

"I knew it before, but I want to thank him…" Archer tone changed as it carried a lot of anger before he whispered " For him to confirm that the ideal I chose was so meaningless and worthless"

Merlin turned his eyes to the side as he watched the interaction between Archer and Rin before he said helplessly" Things are really out of control"

"Merlin… " Ritsuka stared at the dragons and the light in the sky as she didn't know what to think now.

"Really, these Beasts are throwing their problems to me… I know what you want to know" Merlin said as he saw that Fou disappeared from Ritsuka's shoulder.

"...." Ritsuka stared at Merlin as she really didn't know what to say about this, she felt that this subject is very sensitive.

"It isn't a big secret and you'll know eventually" Merlin cleared his throat before he said " … Beasts are the monsters of calamity in the world"

"They are the Stigmata of Humanity, which are bound to appear as long as humanity exists. They who represent the seven sins, but these sins aren't the normal ones, they come from the attributes that humans embody in existing as humans" Ignoring Ritsuka shocked yet disbelieved face, Merlin continues as he said " Just as the humanity is enabled to throw away wisdom, Evils and Beasts are an inevitable fixture of the human condition"

"This is the Evil of Humanity and what happening in the Sky is the result of two of them… Beast I and Beast VI" Merlin said as he looked at the light that represents Beast I and the Dragons of Leo as Beast VI.

"Something that humanity brought upon itself" Merlin lowered his staff as he looked at Ritsuka and said " So, what do you think, Chaldea Master?"

".... I don't know… I really don't know" Ritsuka was silent for a while before she said those words. She really doesn't know what to think about this… Leo and Fou were this kind of existence that should be called an absolute enemy, especially for an organization like Chaldea.

"If they are like you said then what should we do? Fight them? Kill them? But…" Ritsuka wasn't able to find a correct word to describe her feelings now, if the existence that only brought destruction was the thing that saved her and even chose to help her now, then what should she do?.

"I also don't know, but I'm here just to watch, and I've to say that I wasn't disappointed!" Merlin did 180 degrees in his attitude as he suddenly became cheerful and said " Cath Palug(Fou), showed me that even a Beast can find beauty if he looked hard enough, and His Majesty(Leo) taught me more about humanity with their ugliness and beauty"

Merlin said as a smile was on his face and flowers were flying around him before he whispered " Even if they faced the end, they'll keep going and you'll keep watching"

"....." Ritsuka felt all the seriousness about the matter was popped like a bubble by Merlin.

"Don't think too much about it, even me, who doesn't feel anything about humanity overall condition, will feel a headache when I think about it" Merlin waved with his hand as he was stabilizing his Noble Phantasm, so he can take Excalibur and cut this Assassin to pieces.

"Is this why Caster and Fou hate you this much? Even if you're also a 'threat' to humanity?" Ritsuka said with a blank look.

"Whoa, what did you said?" Merlin put his hands on his ears before he turned his head and said " I can't hear you, it seems my Spirit Origin is malfunctioning"

Ritsuka stared at Merlin, closing his ears and kept saying something just to not hear her before she sighed and looked at the sky.

Meanwhile, in Solomon's Reality Marble above the pacific ocean.

Solomon was flying in the sky as he looked at the scene of the world's end in front of him without any change in his expression, however, there was some doubt in his eyes.

"Imperfection? Humanity imperfection? Why does his Noble Phantasm contain this?" Solomon used his Clairvoyance to look into Leo's Noble Phantasm as he found that it has humanity imperfection deep into its core.

The dragons and the light were still clashing and trying to consume each other, but the light started to get an advantage and push the dragons with the help of the five magic-circles behind it.

Those magic circles are the five true magics. They provide energy from 1st, 2nd, and 3rd magic while 4th, and 5th increase the light power.

Solomon saw this as he increased the power of the magic, but before he did that he saw with his Clairvoyance that Leo disappeared from his previous location.

*BOOOOOOM!!!*

With a flap of his wings, Leo reached Solomon instantly before he picked his spear and stabbed to the front.

Raising his fist covered with True magic, Solomon punched the spear instantly as a huge shock wave of magical energy hit the surrounding.

*CLANG!!!*

Leo's spear and Solomon's magic were pushing each other as the dragons started to push the light back because Solomon lost focus. However, Solomon widened his eyes when he saw Leo's horns and halo shining with the dragons' horns as a bad feeling came to his heart.

Suddenly, Solomon punched with his other hand and pushed himself away before he blocked Leo's wing as he frowned because of the shape and colors in the wings.

Keeping the bad feeling in his heart, Solomon waved his hand as some light belts separated from his Noble Phantasm and shot at Leo.

*BOOOOM!!*

Leo just waved with his wings and crossed an enormous distance to avoid the light's belts, but they were like homing missiles and followed him instantly.

"VI" Leo said calmly before one of the dragons separated from the group and bite the light belts. However, suddenly, Leo saw something with his Clairvoyance as he raised his spear to welcome the fist of Solomon.

*BOOOOOOM!!*

Another collision happened as the reality Marble was shaking, but this time, Solomon's rings and Leo's horns with Halo were shining with sparks like somethings that shouldn't meet each other.

Pushing the mana on his hand, Solomon did a quick spin before he blew away Leo's spear and started a barrage of punches.

*CLANG!* *CLANG!**CLANG!**CLANG!**CLANG!*

The spear and fists were exchanging hits with each other before Solomon did a faint and punched Leo to the gut which launched him away.

Leo flew away as he lost his balance and Solomon was rushing with his fist again, but suddenly, a green light appeared from Leo's necklace before he appeared behind Solomon and stabbed with his spear towards Solomon's spirit origin. "Imperfection in perfection?" Solomon glanced at this attack before a multi-colored light glowed on him.

Blue flames were burning on the spear as Leo stabbed Solomon, but he disappeared instantly which made him say " 2nd True magic, huh. First, your rings and now this"

2nd True magic is the Operation of Parallel Worlds which allows its user to travel and use parallel worlds. Solomon can't use his incomplete form of this magic to travel between parallel worlds, but he can teleport in a way that Leo can't track him.

Solomon appeared far away from Leo as he looked at the scene around him before he said " The information was too lacking, there is a huge change in Beast VI data, start to collect the new data"

Solomon's voice sounded like a machine for a moment when he was checking his magecraft data before he said " Beast VI seems to have the power to amplifies his abilities, this battle won't lead any-..."

However, before he finished his words, Leo's dragon appeared above him and opened his mouth full of flames, which made Solomon dodge quickly.

"Oh, I'm sorry, but did you just say… You want to run?!" Leo appeared next to Solomon as his magical energy was more explosive even his eyes were flaming with anger.

"After I let go of my Beast side, used my edgy Noble Phantasm, and said a full monologue of edgy words" Leo seemed angrier about something that made Solomon confused even in his rational mode.

"I even evolved into an edge emperor and you want to run?!" Leo said as his attacks became more fierce and his dragons were roaring.

Beasts are edgy creatures by nature, they are born to be chunni and edgy according to what Leo felt during these days. Their view of humanity and philosophy can write a 100k pages about humanity and their symbolism with them, which make them an excellent villain material.

Leo, as a true Beast, he became edgy by nature, and has the authority to be edgy and chunni without being cringy according to this world rules, especially when Beast VI is one of the biggest edgelord in this world, he even evolves to an Edge Emperor.

Leo doesn't care about this a lot, but when he uses his Noble Phantasm and says edgy lines, he wants to finish the job, however, Solomon wants to run now!!.

Solomon started at Leo before he teleported away and started to use the 2nd magic to leave this Reality Marble while trapping Leo here for a few seconds.

Leo saw this as he put a spear-throwing position and called Tusk to activate the Spin and the Golden Rectangle. With Tusk Power, the spear started to spin in Leo's hand and a golden rectangle appeared in front of him before his necklace glowed, which made a green color on the rectangle and the spear. Even the dragons' blue flames started to spin and pushed the light further.

"MY EDGINESS DOESN'T ALLOW THIS!!!!" With that scream filled with anger, Leo threw his spear at Solomon that almost teleported away.

*CRACK!!*

The spear hit the area around Solomon as the 2nd True magic cracked slightly in mid-air, however, Leo's spear also had cracks all over it.

"Perfection in imperfection?" Solomon said quietly before Leo's spear was blown by the true magic and he wanted to activate the teleportation again, but then, he saw a giant black wing with rainbow colors next to him.

Solomon widened his eyes as the wing extended and opened up as one of Leo's dragons appeared from it and rushed towards him.

At that moment, when the bloody colossal mouth and blue flames appeared on his face, Solomon raised his hand as the True magic was activated before he teleported from here, but one of his rings touched the flames slightly.

*BOOOOOOM!!!"

The dragon closed his mouth before looking around in confusion because Solomon escaped.

"....." Leo lowered his head as the magical energy and divinity around him were boiling to the maximum which shows his feelings now.

*CRACK!!!*

Without the support of Solomon, the Noble Phantasm was cracked by the dragons and decayed into ashes, but Leo wasn't happy at all.

Raising his head and looking at the sky with empty eyes, Leo took a deep breath before he screamed " CURSE YOU, SOLOMON!!!!!!"

A Beast screams of hatred were echoing in the Reality Marble as the Dragons were roaring and destroying everything around them.

Meanwhile, in the imaginary number space, Goetia opened his eyes as he had a weird feeling of understanding someone's pain now.

Today events show clearly that Beasts will always hate all the Casters with Grand-class relation, be it Merlin or Solomon.
