Chapter 10: Grand Order (Long Chapter)
After putting Olga Marie's soul into a Stasis like state, we proceeded to make our way to the end of this entire singularity once and for all.
Mash tried to get in contact with Chaldea, but the connection was bad, so we decided to wait until we got the grail before calling them to pull us out of here.
"Master, I have to ask, what are you exactly? Your not human obviously, but you don't seem to be a machine either." Caster decided to ask to past the time as we made our way to the grail.
"Because I'm not human nor machine…. I'm something beyond what humans can reach…." I say while giving him a sidelong glance.
"Such as?"
"Such as something on a need to know basis, and as far as I'm concerned you don't need to know." I say as I shake him off and decide to ignore him.
I may have a story to tell, but it isn't exactly a happy one, plus why bother telling it to him or anyone anyway? There's no point to letting them in on my story as far as I'm concerned.
"We're here." I say as I look upon the temple in front of us, I don't need him to tell me as I can feel it myself at this distance.
I look back at them, "Come on, pick up the pace so we get this over with…" I say as I pick up speed and head towards the grail with them trailing behind.
Soon enough we reached the Fuyuki temple where we went behind and entered the caves behind it all.
"Ohh? Looks like we have some company." I say as we just enter and see a swarm of skeletons waiting for us.
Soon enough Mash began to crush the various Skeletons with her shield while Caster threw out fireballs breaking them apart.
And me crushing skulls and ripping them apart as a result before they were all cleared out.
"These things are more annoying than anything else, Mash, you alright?" I could see that she was winded.
"I'm…. Fine…. Senpai…." She said while breathing heavily.
"Let's just catch our breath for a bit, when your ready we can go ahead." Caster suggested which I just nodded, it's better to be at peak performance before a battle after all.
"Alright…." She said putting down her shield before taking a short break to catch her breath.
..
.
"Alright we've rested long enough let's go, when we get there it will be three on two, Shield- no Mash, I need you to cover me while I deal with Saber, I personally need to end this myself or else this grail war will just go more out of control, Master I need you to deal with Lancer and when she is taken out we can all work together to take Saber down."
"Do we have any idea who Saber is?" Mash asked as we went further in.
"I know who Lancer once was…. And if she considers Saber to be her king then there's only one person that fits the bill." Caster says pausing for suspense.
"Gareth, one of the knights of the round table, so if she is following her king then Saber must be-"
"Aurthuria Pendragon, the one and future king of all of Britain." Says a voice as we finally reach our destination.
Facing away from us before turning to look at us stands a woman dressed in all black armor with a pale complexion and blonde hair wielding a blackened sword as she looked at us.
Kneeling before her, covered in shadows, wearing the armor of a knight while wielding a large lance and shield before getting up to stand before us did Gareth look towards us as well.
"Caster."
"Saber."
"Seems like you have gotten allies to come and help you in taking me down and ending this once and for all it seems." She says looking at us.
"Although I don't know how you will be able to deal with me and my knight with just yourself, a woman with a shield, and a berserker."
"Oi, I'm no berserker, although I did kill your berserker with my bare hands, so it seems I'll have to show you some skills then." I say with a grin as I crack my knuckles as my other arms form around me.
Seeing this Gareth readied herself as she stood between me and Arthuria, "My King, I shall hold him off for as long as I can."
"Hmph, good, then I shall deal with Caster." She said and in that instant the battle began.
Gareth was fast as she lunged and struck at me with her lance with rapid thrusts making me have to dodge her attacks while countering and attacking back where she would use her shield to protect herself from my attacks.
Meanwhile Mash was tanking all the attacks from Arthuria as she kept attack both of them while Caster sends out fireballs or lightning bolts to attack her.
But Mash was having a hard time as she was barely keeping up with Arthuria's attacks overall.
But she was definitely buying Caster time to build up for his noble phantasm and take her down.
At the same time I was quickly getting the upper hand on her putting her on the defensive as her shield was beginning to bend inwards from all the strikes she was protecting herself from.
With one swift kick I sent her flying back, but this didn't deter her as she was able to catch herself before taking a charge stance and running at me.
"Ira Lupus!" She said while making a mad charge towards me and rapidly attacking me with her lance.
But I was able to duck and weave through her charge before using 4 of my arms to stop her before using the other two to break the lance away from her arm.
Before turning it and using all my strength right back at her, she tried to use her shield to block but it shattered from taking to much damage, so with another full powered thrust straight through her.
"Urk!…. I'm sorry….. my king..." she says before her body begins to vanish as well as a quartz with the symbol of a wolf/dog and a lance falls into my hands before I put it away.
As I had finished my fight, there's was at its climax as before I could even go to help-
"EXCALIBUR MORGAN!!!" Aurthuria sent out a black wave like attack from her sword straight towards Mash and Caster.
"Lord Chaldeas!" She shouted out in return to set up her massive shield barrier to protect the both of them, which in turn gave Caster all the time he needed.
"Now! WICKERMAN!" He shouted out as he manifested his noble phantasm behind Aurthuria as she was preoccupied with dealing with Mash with her noble phantasm making her stuck in place for the time being.
She dispelled her attack as fast as she could but by the time she readies herself she was already in Wickerman's grasp.
She was then shoved inside of it before the Wickerman proceeded to stab her body full of holes inside itself, before setting itself on fire and blowing up in the process.
"…. Did we do it?" Mash asked as she was only still standing thanks to her shield holding her up.
After the dust had settled Aurthuria was surprisingly not dead, but she was in bad shape as she was bleeding from everywhere as she used her sword to keep herself from falling as she knelt on the ground.
"Hmm…. It seems…. This is my end…." She was clearly barely holding on as she wanted to say something to us.
"You may have won this holy grail war, and even this first order, but…. Beware the grand order is only just beginning…." She said leaving us with a rather cryptic message as she faded away just as well.
I didn't really get what she meant as I walked up to where she fell and grabbed both her Quartz with a blackened sword symbol in it, as well as the holy grail before putting away the quartz as I went back to the both of them.
"Well…. I guess I should say my goodbyes as well…. Hey if you guys need me ever again, can you summon me as a Lancer? I'm stronger in that form than a Caster…. Well see you both around…." He says with a smile as he fades away as well leaving a quartz with a Druid staff surrounded by Gaelic/Celtic runes for me to put away into my inventory.
"Hello? Mash? Asura? Do you read me?" Roman said as he was finally able to reestablish contact with us.
"Dr. Roman! We have completed the mission here in Fuyuki!" She says as she shows the holy grail to Roman.
"That's fantastic Mash! But where is chief Olga?" He asks us, as we haven't had time to tell him about her death or that I'm holding onto her soul for the time being.
I decide to cut in, "She's fine, I'll explain later, but for now can you get us out of here?"
"Oh… okay, I'll get your- wait…. Who is that behind you two?" He says as he realizes someone sneaking up on us.
My instincts instantly flair up as I grab the grail out of Mashes hands, which turns out to be the right move as some telekinetic force grabs at the grail and try's to pull it out of my hands.
This causes me to turn around as I grab it with all 6 arms and resist it before throwing it into my inventory making him let go of it.
"Hmmm…. You insignificant insects just love to ruin my fun now don't you?" He says as the asshole from before shows his face.
"Lev? But I thought you were dead." Roman says surprised as seeing Lev still alive and not dead.
"Mash, stay back, that thing…. It's not human…" I said readying myself for a fight.
"What?" Both Mash and Roman act surprised at what I said.
"KukukufufufuHAHAHAHHA! He's right! Im not Lev Laniur anymore, but you can call me Lev Laniur Flauros! One of my Ki-" but-
"SHUT UP!!!" I shout as I launch myself at him with a heavy punch straight to his face sending him tumbling as the lines on my body began to turn orange as I let my wrath flow.
"Grah! Pathetic mortal! You dare attack a god!?! A demon god at that?!" He says clearly enraged at the audacity that he would be attacked and could be hurt by things that would be considered well beneath him in strength even.
Soon after his eyes turn demon red as he ripped off his shirt while barring his fangs as his body now revealed as there were multiple red eye like protrusion's one his chest, waist and for arms while he looked at me with a sneer.

"I was just gonna trap you both here in this singularity and let it's break down kill you both, but you pissed me off! So I'm just gonna kill you both myself!"
"Good! I knew the second I saw you back then I wanted to tear off your fucking head, your just lucky that shell of a body restricted me asshole!" I say as we launch ourselves at each other and began to attack with rapid fire fist strikes at one another.
If Lev was up against anyone else or any of the other servants, even those that are considered some of the strongest in existence, he would be able to kill them with the flick of a finger.
But Asura is different, out of possibly all the servants that had ever existed he was the one who has the most 'gods' killed under his belt as well as personally killing the creator god of the Universe in his time even as well as killing the corrupted will of Gaea known as Viltra.
Even if they are primarily Demons, they are still considered to be Gods as well.
And Asura Kills Gods.
"How?! How is this even possible?! I'm one of the 72 Demon Gods?! How can you match me in strength?!" He says as all the punches he was sending out were getting countered as a result of my punches blocking them while my extra fists hit his body when he can't block.
"YOU TALK TO MUCH!!!" I shout out as I break his guard as I grab him by his head before I smash him straight into the ground making a body sized hole in the ground as I proceeded to rapidly throw punch after punch into his defenseless body.
"GAHKAHGUHUGH!!!!" Blood was spurting out of him from his mouth, nose and eyes from the severe beating his was receiving before I came to a stop as I pulled my arm back as it filled with energy for one final strike.
(The Honored One (False) has been Activated)
"Guh…. How…. How can I lose?…. I'm a god! My King will never forgive you for doing this!" He clearly wanted to know why this was such a one sided beat down of sorts.
"AND IM A GOD KILLER!!! AND YOUR KING WILL BE NEXT!!!!" I shout out as I unleash the full force of my strike straight into his skull completely obliterating it in the process.
As a light tried to escape from his now dead body, before stopping and being pulled towards the soul grinder that is my Mantra Core.
"No! NO! YOU! YOU WILL PAY FOR THIS!! YOU WILL ALL PAY!!!!" His soul shouts out in horror as it is pulled straight into my Mantra Core which I activate to eradicate his soul in the process.
With the scream that could pierce the heavens with its sound alone, Lev Lanuir Flauros was destroyed completely and entirely.
But soon after his death things began to fall apart as a result, I turned to look at Mash who was hiding behind her shield to protect her from the shock waves of the battle between me and Lev.
"Roman! Get us the hell out of here!" I shout towards Roman who was watching the entire fight himself.
"Right! Coordinates recieved! Commencing Rayshift!" He said after setting everything up before slamming down on a button which opened something akin to a Warp gate.
"Mash! Go!"
"Yes Senpai!" She says as she jumps through.
I was about to as well before I realized there was a completely blackened Quartz where Lev had fallen at, I decided to grab it and put it into my inventory as I jumped through the gate straight back to Chaldea.
