If she had a cowlick, she'd probably be shaking it like crazy right now.
"Hmm, that's a good suggestion. I should also take some responsibility for my choices. However, let's talk about this after you defeat me!"
As she said this, she suddenly took a step back, widening the distance between them.
Close combat is no longer very meaningful; Marne has gained enough experience and can now even overpower her.
Marne did not pursue them, but nodded in understanding.
"Well then, I'll get serious too."
Seeing this, Black Hair gave a reminder and then slowly raised the black holy sword in his hand.
"The battle of the Heroic Spirits has only just begun!"
"If you can't even handle this, then this is the end for you!"
As she spoke, a massive amount of magical power erupted from her body, gathering in her hands and pouring into the sword. The black holy sword then began to emit a black pillar of magical power that could devour light.
"Excalibur! Morgan!"
The true name is released, and the distorted Holy Grail reveals its terrifying power.
A magic pillar more than a meter thick erupted and pressed down on Ma En as the black-haired man swung his weapon.
Seeing this, Ma En understood that Black Hair had truly recovered. The 'beam cannon' that was originally only the thickness of a palm had now become a 'beam cannon'.
He instinctively tried to dodge, but then a thought struck him, and he called out, "Mash!"
Mashu, who had been watching the battle from the sidelines and was already worried for Marne, rushed out without hesitation upon hearing the call, raising her large shield to block Marne's path.
boom! ! !
The black magic pillar, carrying terrifying power, fell upon the great shield.
"Ugh! Ah!"
Mashu instantly felt that terrifying power and was pushed back a step.
But she quickly realized what was happening, gritted her teeth, and struggled to hold on.
The energy of the magic pillar was blocked by the cross-shaped shield and split into thinner streams of magic that splashed out and landed on the ground nearby, leaving a scorching mark.
Chapter 233 Mashu! She's been enhanced! Quick, smash her with the city wall!
"Mashu?!"
Seeing Mash struggling to stay afloat, Gudako called out and was about to step forward, but was stopped by Olga Marie.
"What good will you do if you go there now? You'll only cause trouble."
"But are we just going to watch her get hurt?"
Gudako was extremely anxious as she watched Mash desperately resisting the black magic pillar.
Seeing Mashu's calm demeanor behind her, Mashu couldn't help but feel puzzled and resentful.
She didn't understand why Marne, who had always protected Mashu, let Mashu take the lead in this dangerous situation.
And she didn't understand why she was hiding in the back doing nothing.
Olga Marie noticed Gudako's expression, guessed what she was thinking, and reassured her, "Maen has his reasons for doing this."
"Moreover, letting Mash hide under his protection all the time, whether she wants it or not, is not good for her growth."
Given Mashu's personality, she wouldn't be happy if you really tried to protect her too much.
She always wanted to prove herself and become a useful person.
Now that she has finally fused with the spirit origin of a heroic spirit and gained power, if she is forced to refuse to do anything, she would probably be miserable to death.
Olga Marie understood this feeling; she had always felt that way, wanting to prove herself.
However, she lacked the ability to do so, and felt distressed because she couldn't.
Therefore, she could understand Mashu's frustration at being able to do something but not being able to.
Hearing Olga Marie's explanation, Gudako calmed down slightly, but she was still very worried because Mashu's condition did not seem to be very good.
Yes, she wasn't mistaken; Mashu's condition really wasn't good.
Black Hairless's condition is much better than in the original work, and her pressure is also greater than before.
He only managed to hold out for a short while before being forced back several steps, eventually reaching Marx and Engels' side.
Seeing this, Ma En quickly reached out to help her support herself.
"I'm sorry, Odosan (Father), if I were stronger..."
Seeing this, Mashu couldn't help but feel down and began to blame herself.
Ma En interrupted her with a smile.
"Don't say such discouraging things, you've already done a great job."
Actually, Ma En noticed her distress and that's why he decided to call her over.
At this point, it's natural not to discourage her.
"Don't worry, if you can do it, we'll help you."
With that, Ma En used space magic to pull Gudako over from the other side.
"Huh?! It is..."
Gudako was startled for a moment, then took in the scene before her. Without saying anything, she silently offered a helping hand.
"Senior? Old man?"
Mashu was a little confused when she saw this, not knowing what Maren was going to do.
"Ritsuka, I'm going to teach you how to use Command Spells now. Do as I say."
Time was of the essence, and Ma En didn't explain much, quickly speaking to Gudako.
Then he began explaining how to use Command Seals, silently adding in his mind, "You should thank me, Gudako, for saving you from a once-in-a-lifetime teleportation."
Gudako listened attentively, nodded in the end, and used the Command Spell as instructed by Maru.
"I command you with a Command Spell! Unleash your Noble Phantasm!"
As the Command Seal on Gudako's right hand faded, Mash suddenly had a sense of enlightenment.
A familiar sensation emanated from the large cross-shaped shield in her hand, and she subconsciously murmured:
"That is our hometown that can heal all scars and all resentments!"
"Appear!"
"The ideal city (Lord Camelot) that is now far away!"
A magic circle appeared at the front of the large shield, instantly blocking the pressure of the magic pillar.
Then the surrounding scenery changed, and the phantom of a white city wall familiar to Marx and Engels gradually solidified.
This is 'Chalk City'!
Camelot Royal City!
"Ok!"
The moment the city wall appeared, the black-haired man on the opposite side paused slightly and quickly ended the release of his Noble Phantasm.
Unfortunately it's too late.
As the city wall solidified, the magic circle at the front of the large shield suddenly enlarged.
It absorbed the magic pillar and bounced it back!
The same black magic pillar struck her, but this time it was aimed at Black Hairless and reflected back at her with such speed that she didn't even have time to dodge before being hit squarely.
Boom! ! !
Amidst the massive explosion, the city walls and magic array gradually faded away.
Mashu stared blankly at everything before her, and said in a daze, "I did this?"
Ma En chuckled and reached out to pat Little Eggplant's head, saying, "Yes, this is the power you possess now, the power to protect."
"The power of protection."
Mashu murmured repeatedly, her expression gradually brightening.
So, she wasn't so useless after all.
The power of protection is just right; this way, she can protect everyone.
"Mash, congratulations."
Seeing this, Gudako also smiled and offered her congratulations.
"Thank you, this is all thanks to you, senior."
"Haha, actually I didn't do anything, it was all taught to me by Ma Ensang."
"But no matter what, the senior helped a lot."
Seeing the overjoyed little eggplant, Ma En quickly reminded him, "Take this opportunity to familiarize yourself with the feeling you just experienced. I'll take care of things here."
"Ah."
Mashu nodded obediently and pulled Gudako aside.
Although she successfully unleashed her Noble Phantasm just now, it was ultimately aided by Command Seals. If she doesn't memorize it, there won't be a next time.
Now, I must remember that feeling well and fully master the release of the Noble Phantasm so as not to let down Odozan's painstaking efforts.
Of course, there was also the help from my seniors.
After the two stepped back, Ma En looked at the center of the explosion.
Through the feedback from the spatial scan, he could clearly 'see' that the black hairless woman had not disappeared.
"He survived taking a direct hit from his own Noble Phantasm? His durability is pretty high."
Most Servants with powerful Noble Phantasms probably couldn't do this.
