This scene could easily be described as a Greek version of King Arthur traveling with the Knights of the Round Table.

Paris watched as his elder brother, who had been laughing and chatting animatedly with Lord Griffith and even their former enemy Achilles since their reunion, seemed oblivious to his beloved younger brother, as if he didn't see him at all. Only when Paris approached him did the brother stammer uncertainly and with surprise, "Paris...? You're here too?"

Then--?

Then—! Just as Paris was overjoyed, thinking that although his brother was a bit absent-minded and didn't recognize him immediately, he couldn't blame him. After all, he hadn't appeared in his childhood form for a long time; during his shepherd years, he had spent most of his time away from home, only returning to the palace as an adult to reunite with his parents and brother. It was normal for his brother not to recognize him at first, but now that he had, it should mean…

Well, that's it.

Hector continued to chat with Achilles about his life, even though Lord Griffith just smiled and watched quietly without saying a word. The two great heroes still clung to each other like lapdogs, and their fighting spirit even ignited when they talked about their lives. They were already very satisfied just to see Griffith.

No, of course not.

Achilles, who once descended upon the Holy Grail War as the Grand Master, wished to fight alongside Griffith once, and never to abandon him until death, facing the world and everything alone! Even if there is evil, he would bear it together!

Achilles's wish was also Hector's wish, and it would never change no matter how many times it happened.

So, Paris didn't understand at all. He only participated in the real final battle to save the world. The true romance of a Greek man is to be proud to stand shoulder to shoulder with the pinnacle of evil!

Inside the control console of the Nautilus, the portly Director Goldrov looked on in disbelief as he saw that all the Heroic Spirits—whether from the Greek era or those who had only recently met Griffith in this era—were now subconsciously gathering behind him, subtly taking him as their leader.

I've never heard of Griffith, the hero of Greek mythology, ever becoming a king. Although there are legends about him being called Talos the Demon King, he was just a pure tyrant, so how come he has such a strong royal army and personal charisma?

I'm suddenly so envious! As the new director of Chaldea, I've experienced several Lostbelts, but I feel like I'm not as loved as the other person.

Even the Heroic Spirits from Chaldea, such as Leonardo da Vinci and Sherlock Holmes, seemed quite interested in this Grand Heroic Spirit.

After all, by skipping the Absolute Demonic Front, they missed the chance to meet the Grand Assassin class, and the records of Grand Servants in Chaldea are extremely limited.

Doctor: "Now that everyone's here, shall we begin our campaign to conquer Poseidon, the sea god? Ah, sorry—it's a bit embarrassing, but please don't laugh at me. It's rare for a loser like me to feel excited. This is the first time Chaldea has ever had such an unprecedentedly powerful lineup. We've even gained the power of four main gods!"

That's right, the power of the Supreme God!

Their firepower is too abundant! So abundant that they've probably never fought a battle with such ample resources before.

Aside from Artemis, who is known to have defected to their side, and of course, Apollo, the sheep mascot, is not included.

When Ye returned with Achilles and the others, she made a detour to Hephaestus and took away his treasured Athena Clenomia and Hephaestus's last power—Hephaestus Clenomia.

In the original storyline, this was prepared to balance the power of Zeuskelonomia that Odysseus implanted in Charlotte Corday.

The power of the last chief god naturally belongs to Zeuskrilonomia.

In the original story, Corday had to endure the battle between the powers of three main gods within her body, experiencing the pain of her soul being torn apart several times. She cried out in agony, wanting to die, but she still held onto her beliefs and forced herself to persevere. In the end, she successfully broke free from Zeusk Lilonomia's mental control, gained new powers, and delivered an unexpected backstab to Odysseus, completing a desperate counterattack.

However, with Yoru present, even though her Spirit Origin is still that of the Moon World, she possesses knowledge of the Vortex of Origin and immense magical power comparable to that of the Oddity Belt. Yoru has many ways to extract Zeskelionomia from Corday's body without harming her Spirit Origin.

Chapter Twenty-Five Apollo: Do ​​you understand the value of all the goddesses of Olympus wanting to drink the water they used to wash their feet?

In the original work, Hephaestus was not powerful enough and was only an incomplete incarnation. Chaldea's technology was also insufficient, so they could only temporarily suppress him with the power of Hephaestus. After obtaining Athena Clronomia, Corday's body was unable to accept the power of the third chief god because of the power of Hephaestus used to suppress her, which led to the risk of her body collapsing.

If one had the power equivalent to a fully-fledged Athena Clonomia from the start, that core alone would have been enough to defeat Zeus's Clonomia—or more accurately, to destroy each other. Even so, if Athena in the mythological world knew that her power could offset that of Zeus, the king of the gods, she would probably be laughing for a whole year.

Zeus of the Moon world is indeed quite weak, but if his big head were blown off and the Eye of Chaos were revealed, it would be somewhat interesting.

Even though most Grand Servants are roughly equivalent to the power of a main god, Night's attribute configuration is maxed out. He actually hopes that the Eye of Chaos is even stronger, so that he can defeat this outsider with power within the rules. If the difficulty is too low, there will be no sense of accomplishment.

At this moment, the little angel Corday suddenly spoke with great distress: "Um... I'm sorry, but—I want to tell everyone something, I don't have Mr. Griffith's power, and I have no way to control Zeusk Lilonomia within me."

The little angels all became somewhat depressed.

I'm dragging everyone down!

Despite the unprecedented power of the four main gods, she, who possessed the power of Zeus, the strongest god-king, was unable to unleash it at all. She was even secretly worried that she might lose control at any moment and be mind-controlled by Zeus to stab her teammates.

Although it might sound discouraging, it's still best to bring up the issues beforehand in these situations.

Holmes: "So—there are only two parts of the power of the chief god that can actually be distributed. The power of the god of forging and the goddess of wisdom, it's really troubling. Who should it be given to? Perhaps Lord Griffith, you should decide. You brought both of these powers back yourself, so it would be best if you decided on the right to use them."

Gudako, Da Vinci, the fat director, and even the other Heroic Spirits had no objections. In fact, they would feel more at ease if Yoru used all of this power to strengthen himself.

Griffith's spiritual origin is already so powerful. If he were to be joined by the power of two chief gods, even if they were to face Zeus, the king of the gods, they wouldn't be completely without a fighting chance, would they?!

The Heroic Spirits eagerly awaited and placed high hopes on this main character because everyone here felt that, apart from him, no other Heroic Spirit was qualified to fight the Supreme God.

If it weren't for the concern that their excessive reliance on each other might put too much pressure on them, which is why they chose to remain silent and let them choose for themselves, the Heroic Spirits would wholeheartedly believe that this power should indeed be used by the strongest, to make them even stronger! But the fact that Ye would use it himself was something he never even considered.

His stats had already reached their limit. As the pinnacle of humanity and the final trial, he didn't need the debuff of divinity at all. Giving him two Krionomias to strengthen him would be a waste.

However, if it's not about strengthening oneself, but rather enhancing one's Noble Phantasm, then he is indeed interested in a certain characteristic.

Night looked at Charlotte Corday, who was now looking down timidly and self-consciously, seemingly blaming herself for holding the team back and afraid of seeing his reproachful gaze. He spoke, "Clronomia of Zeus? I have a way to make His will subdue and serve you... But, shall we make a deal, Charlotte Corday?"

"A transaction?" Corday looked up in surprise, her mouth slightly agape.

The absence of blame and cold stares reassured Corday considerably.

She was preparing to declare that she did not need Zeus's power and was willing to unconditionally offer it to someone more suitable, after all, a weak heroic spirit like herself was quite self-aware.

But the night didn't give her a chance to speak: "Compared to Zeus's Clenomia, and the Clenomia of Athena, a goddess who is also a woman and symbolizes war and wisdom, I will exchange this for the Zeus Clenomia within you. How about it? This goddess who recognizes hope and courage and loves the steadfast has the power to bring miracles. I judge that you are the best user of her."

Judging solely by her ambition, Corday's performance in the original story was truly outstanding, marking a minor peak in the early stages. Athena would definitely be satisfied with this suitable candidate; the night hadn't lied. Charlotte Corday's face flushed instantly, and she blinked her adorable big eyes: "Really...? Can I satisfy that goddess of wisdom?"

She covered her mouth with her two small hands, looking somewhat insecure and shy.

Perhaps only Lord Griffith thinks that way; is it really just to make her happy?

ah--!

Such praise from such a powerful person could easily make her arrogant! Even if it was just flattery, she accepted it and suddenly felt very happy. The nervousness she felt in front of this important person vanished instantly.

Night: "Of course, I never lie. I said you possess such a strong will and talent, and you do—! Even if you don't believe in yourself, please don't doubt my judgment. Since that's the case—I'll take it as your agreement. So…"

Charlotte Corday: "Eh?!...I...I understand, but...but how do I do it?"

Seeing Night suddenly walk in, getting too close, so close that you could see his flawless, poreless skin, and facing the stunningly handsome face of the hero Griffith, Charlotte Corday panicked. She was completely defenseless and just wanted to cooperate with him quickly. She couldn't even show her deep-seated inferiority complex and couldn't bring herself to refuse.

Apollo, the chief god who was just passing by, became excited upon seeing this.

He was quite qualified to comment on this, and was currently being held in Paris's arms. Watching the scene unfold with amusement, he didn't forget to explain and comment to his little admirer, Paris: "Look closely, this is the most beautiful and strongest hero of Greece. No one can resist Griffith's charm. If Griffith were willing to sell his foot bath water, I bet all the goddesses of Olympus would go crazy bidding for it! Especially at such close range, if I were that lucky little girl, I would definitely seize the opportunity to hug him and throw myself into his arms!...—Ah, the innocent longing and budding romance of a young girl, while having its own charm, is still too weak in its assertiveness; she completely fails to seize opportunities!"

Paris, mortified and distraught, cried out, "Lord Apollo!!"

Upon hearing Apollo's bizarre remarks, the surrounding heroic spirits instinctively moved a few steps away from him.

This Apollo was normal before, but ever since he learned that Yoru had also descended upon this Lostbelt, he has become completely abnormal.

The goddesses of Olympus still have some dignity! How could they possibly be so perverted?!

Chapter Twenty-Six: The King of Gods Cannot Be Defeated; Zeus's Consciousness: Who are you?!

Gudako was shocked: "Are there really going to be an auction?!"

Mandecardo, Chiyome Mochizuki, Jason, and others: ".......................................

No way, Master, you actually believed that?!

Originally cold, emotionless machines, once they gained humanity, would they all inevitably veer towards becoming twisted? This is already too human, it's gone too far!

However—if Apollo could do it, why couldn't those goddesses really be like that...?

Even the heroic spirits couldn't help but feel gossipy at this moment, but they couldn't imagine that the dignified goddesses would turn into such a crazy person.

Night: "I will now remove Zeskelionoumia from your body."

Charlotte Corday's ears turned bright red as she exclaimed in surprise, "Here...here?! Maybe we should find an empty room first."

Zessillonomia had completely merged into her Spirit Origin, and she had no idea how to remove her. If it involved surgery or something, wouldn't she have to take off her clothes?!

Even a dead person still has some sense of shame as a girl.

Night: "No need for all that trouble, just stand still. What follows might be slightly offensive... front or back—"

Caught off guard by the question, Charlotte Corday instinctively chose a more agreeable answer: "In my heart!"

But after answering, I realized what I had done.

Wait, wait, what does this mean?

Waaah, my heart...no, it's...the area around my chest! Ah!

Charlotte Corday, her body heating up, blushed and almost cried. She hurriedly tried to change her words, but Night moved swiftly.

He reached out and pierced Charlotte Corday's heart.

His fingertips didn't touch the clothing; just like when Aizen pulled the jewel from Rukia's chest in Bleach, he ignored the collision of matter and went straight for the deepest part of her spirit origin.

After exploring the spirit core for a while, Night found the Zeskelionomia he wanted.

Upon sensing the intrusion, Zeus's consciousness within the body suddenly surged with power, for the majesty of the god-king was inviolable!

He chose to impose the coldest and most brutal punishment on this foreign force! Even if it meant using Charlotte Corday's spirit origin as the battlefield, even if fighting here might kill this little girl, he didn't care.

After all, the God-King wouldn't care about the life of this mere little girl.

For Heroic Spirits, the Spirit Origin is as vital as the heart and brain; how could such a fragile and crucial part withstand a battle with the power of a supreme god?!

This is also why, in the original story, Corday felt like she was going to die from the very beginning, experiencing pain that came from the depths of her soul.

Even so, Corday in the original work persevered to the end, displaying an iron will that was even comparable to Gudako's.

It's truly a miracle that a young girl who wasn't a famous hero in history and didn't experience any legendary life could achieve this.

However, this time, with Night taking action, Charlotte Corday will not feel any pain.

It was merely a fragment of Zeus's power separated from its original form. Faced with the surging, abyss-like, endless magical power emanating from the Lostbelt's body—a body that was itself the night of the universe—even though it initially came on strong, it was quickly and forcefully suppressed by the boundless magical power, ultimately only able to let out a roar of unwilling anger!

Zeus's voice resounded from the depths: "Impossible!!! Who are you, this infinite power?"

Resentment, anger, disbelief—even the usually aloof and cold-hearted God-King couldn't help but reveal such obvious emotions at this moment!

That was a loss of composure caused by the overwhelming shock.

The final question, of course, remained unanswered. Even if Night had answered, Zeus could not have heard it. At this moment, Zeus's will within that power had been completely crushed by the vast magic that was like the universe itself.

If the technology and the resources are sufficient, then the problem is much, much simpler than imagined.

Not to mention that the magic of the night is not only in quantity, but also in quality, it is absolutely no less than that of the main god.

Then, when Night withdrew his hand, he completely detached Zessilonomia from Corday's body.
