Me, Hydra

Would anyone really want to be an obscure salty fish?

Isn't calling yourself a salty fish just to wait for the day when you turn over a new leaf?

It's not personal, it's just that this is the kind of thing that could easily lead to a bigger misunderstanding if it's not said, although it might make you readers uncomfortable. But this....

It really is true.

Volume 2: Extra - 56 - Final Act

"Boom ---"

It was like porcelain, just like porcelain that was broken.

The difference in strength was too great, this kind of gap that could be seen at a glance, several times too great to be resolved by relying on effort.

With a single slap, the first Conquering King and the others were directly slapped apart into a pile of spirits and then absorbed by the Great Sacred Cup.

Not even having the strength to defend against resistance, the Mountain's Weng and the Golden Shining were blown away in one blow.

"Die!"

Black and red poisonous fire gathered in Hydra's mouth, like a prelude to extinction, the black and red flames cut straight through half of Winterwood. Knocked flying in the air, without the slightest release of resistance, the two also followed in the footsteps of the Conquering King.

Swallowing a mouthful of spittle, looking at Hydra who was entrenched in the Willow Cave Temple, the hearts of the imperial masters who were hiding in the back had even gone halfway cold.

"This... has already surpassed the category of a follower..."

Shaking his head sadly, Kenneth was somewhat glad that at least the Hydra in the picture retained his rationality, at least without the follower state anymore, he shouldn't be able to do anything to himself or anyone else....

On the other side, defeated by Li Shuwen's robbery, looking at Hydra's figure, Di Lumido swallowed his saliva, then said with a bitter smile, "Looks like my luck is good, at least I can fight as hard as I can for once..."

"What do you mean?"

Looking at Di Lumu Duo's figure, Li Shuwen raised his eyebrows. Because among Di Lumido's words, Li Shuwen heard something else.

"I want to return the favor to my Imperial Lord." Di Lumido said with a smile, "The advent of the Holy Grail requires the magic of the seven follower present, the Conquering King, the Hero King, and ASSASSIN have all retired, so it's time for me to leave... After all, it's your enemy, isn't it? If I live, I am the greatest threat to my lord..."

As he spoke, Dilumudu lifted his head to look at Hydra.

"If I choose to withdraw, may I spare my lord."

Looking into Di Lumido's eyes, Hydra nodded.

"What I need is the Third Law, and your Sovereign means nothing to me."

With a sigh of relief, Dilumuendo yawned slightly in the direction of Kenneth's location. Then, at the will of Di Lumido, the spirits that made up Di Lumido began to disperse, and all of those dispersions were sucked into the Great Grail System....

"Four, three more to go."

As he said that, Jeanne stood up from the ruins.

Jeanne's treasure "My Lord is here" was a defensive weapon, and after being strengthened by the inhibiting power, no follower could break it.

"What if it failed..."

Looking at Hydra, who was covered in black flames in front of her, Jeanne laughed bitterly with helplessness.

Feeling the sight of Hydra, Jeanne didn't have the slightest fear, but instead reported a helpless bitter smile to Hydra.

"I know what you're after, it's the Holy Grail, isn't it? The advent of the Holy Grail requires seven follower spirit bases, and I know there's nothing more I can do to stop you..."

As she said that, the holy banner in Jeanne's hand dissipated as a spirit child, crying and sitting on the ground, her entire body not making any defense.

"But, please, please don't hurt the people in the city..."

Said Jeanne, there was a prayerful look in her eyes.

Hearing Jeanne's words, Hydra nodded her head. Seeing Hydra's nod, the smile on Jeanne's face also shone brightly, and then the spirit children began to dissipate, and Jeanne's spirit base soon turned into a pile of spirit children that was recycled by the Great Grail System.

Looking at the dissipated Jeanne, a touch of bitterness also rose on Black Chastity's face.

"Shouldn't one be happy? But you've been shouting all day to kill him."

Sensing Black Chastity's emotional turmoil, Hydra said indifferently. Without the slightest hint of sarcasm or ridicule, it was merely a bland and tedious narration like a documentary narration.

"No need for you to care..."

Shaking his head and disengaging the "World Tree" state, Hydra breathed a sigh of relief.

"ASSASSIN, the Conquering King, the Golden Shining, Dilumodo, Jeanne the Ruler...five slaves, two to go."

Hydra appeared to have a bit of a headache, as the remaining follower was his ally, and whether or not to let that follower drop out would require careful thought for Hydra.

Sensing Hydra's distress, Manticore Goose Night, on the other hand, came out from a corner.

"Counting the berserker..."

Looking at Manticore Goose Night's gaze, Hydra nodded. Then, under the command of Mantong Goose Night, the berserker quickly became a pile of spirits.

"Next... one more to go."

The black, sludge-like stuff came out of the chalice, like concentrated inky sulfuric acid, which made a "sneezing" sound when it touched the messy ground.

In the meantime, the royal masters who were observing all this through their demons raised their brows as they watched the Holy Grail appear in the sky.

"The Holy Grail... is that what it is?"

Looking at the black mud that was constantly emerging from the screen, the crowd could still feel the malice that was churning on it despite being through the screen.

The eyes of everyone present were directed at the Enzaka Tokimatsu, as this was the only remaining Mikoto family left....

But despite that, the Enzaka Tokiatsu was dumbfounded....

On the other hand, Weiya Cheji had arrived at Yanagidonji Temple and looked at the chalice that was floating in the air as black mud continued to emerge. In the meantime, Guiya Cheji tightened his brows. Although Hydra had already spoken to Weiya Cheji, but when this scene appeared in front of Weiya Cheji... the senses alone were something completely different....

"The Great Grail System isn't complete enough, it's still one short."

Upon hearing that, before Weiya Cheji could say anything, the saber on the other side stepped forward.

"I, for one, don't have the need to carry on if the chalice has lost its effectiveness...Illya still needs Master Lee, doesn't she?"

A bitter smile rose on Saber's face as he said that.

The spirit began to dissipate, dissipating to the point where the spirit felt the call of the chalice and was soon absorbed into the nourishment of the great chalice system.

Then, the complete Great Sacred Grail finally began to show its proper power.

The raging black mud, the monstrous malice.
