Chapter 6
"W-What's with that Servant!" Waver said with a wide-open mouth.
The teen with his Servant was standing not far away from the fight between Gilgamesh, King of Heroes and this new teenage looking girl with long black hair. She was wielding two Katana's which emit arc of blue and red energies.
"Hoh? More than that Alter Ego of Okita Souji?" The King of Conquerors asked very curiously.
"By a landslide! This one's three out of six parameters are at EX! Mana, Endurance, and Noble Phantasm are the EX ones! That's not all! At the beginning of the battle, her other parameters went up! Like she… beefed herself up?
And this is not all! she has a huge list of personal skills! With Independent Action at C! She can fight away from her Master without any worries!" The Master of Rider said everything he could from checking this Servant out from distance.
Iskandar could only whistle hearing that! Not even King of Heroes had this many EX at his parameters!
'Who is this girl? Never heard anyone wield two katanas like these… even the pinkhead Musashi didn't have this kind of unique looking swords…' The redhead King of Macedonia had thoughtful look as he continued to watch the battle between the King of Heroes and the black-haired girl in body tight armour.
Then… Waver saw IT… he immediately lost his balance and dropped on his ass. His face turned pale like paper.
"Boy, what did you see!?"
"H-Her Noble Phantasm!!! I-I-Its… Anti-Star!!!"
"Anti-Star? What does it do?"
"Theoretically… it has the potential to blast a star! Like, For example, Earth… which can be classified as a star! I doubt it can do it… but for a Noble Phantasm to be an EX with Anti-Star classification… it enough to kill all of us! That's for sure!" Waver explained as he slowly got on his feet. He didn't expect to see Servant like that!
Okita Alter and Gilgamesh having anti-world Noble Phantasm are enough! Now there is a Servant with anti-Star! What next!? Raynor is going to summon a Servant who has a floating castle!?
Or something more wacky… like celebration based Servants!?
Waver snorted internally. He doubts those exist! Or… do they!?
Regardless… this girl is a very dangerous Servant!
~~~
While Waver and Rider are discussing the madness of this girl's parameters. Tokiomi Tohsaka is dumbfounded to see the Servant Gilgamesh is fighting!
Why does she looks so similar to his daughter!? It's like this sword-wielding girl is a grown-up version of Rin!
Tokiomi was not the only one. Half delirious Matou Kariya nearly rushed there with his Berserker to help this girl!
Thankfully or not. He got over it and realised that Rin is too small to do anything like this girl is doing.
Where Tokiomi and Kariya are quite confused with this Servant. Saber and Irisviel were observing from a distance and trying to figure out what this Servant is.
From the looks of it, this was another Saber.
But it can be someone else entirely as the both of them remember Majin Okita Souji Alternative who was Alter Ego.
~~~
With a blast of red and blue energies, the golden king was blasted from the rooftop. The ancient hero midair summoned several portals and shoot multiple weapons towards the black-haired girl.
The girl in question released even more sword energies and blasted the incoming weapons.
*Tsk*
'How much mana is that brat supplying her with!?' Gilgamesh frowned as he saw the magnitude of mana this Divine Spirit is throwing around!
Thankfully his Gate of Babylon is quite mana efficient, the Mesopotamian King can deflect this amount of energy by using even more weapons.
Moments later the pair landed on the street. This way the Golden King has more space to utilise ranged attacks against this unique Servant.
"Aren't you going to bring out your chains or that cylindrical sword you so proud of?" The black-haired girl asked with quite a mocking tone.
The way they are she is going to win with her parameters alone.
Her words instantly made the blonde frown and get pissed off to a completely different level.
"If you want them so much …you can have them!!!" Portals opened behind the golden hero and a multitude of chains rushed towards one of Space Ishtar avatars.
Ashtart slightly smirked seeing this as she activate another of her skills. 'Venus Driver B'. A skill that makes her temporarily invulnerable to damage of any kind so that she could prepare to release her Noble Phantasm, as her Noble Phantasm takes time to charge after all.
But this time she is using this skill differently.
As chains rushed towards her, the black-haired divine spirit rushed into the chains. This makes Gilgamesh grin cruelly seeing this. Oh, he is going to enjoy killing this bitch!
However, his eyes widened to a large degree seeing Enkidu, the heaven chains which are incredibly strong against any kind of divine being simply get deflected from its course by some invisible force!
Then a sound of metal being cut spread through the place followed by drops of blood.
*Tsk!!!*
Gilgamesh quickly shot a torrent of weapons to make some distance.
Sweat started to drip from his forehead. Thankfully, very last second he moved slightly away. Otherwise, his spirit core would have been damaged!
"Damn you!!! I will remember this!" With that said with a burst of golden particles the Ancient King of Mesopotamia disappeared.
"...I guess, I missed… still need to train more," Ashtart said to herself as she looked at her bloodied sword. She missed to cut Archer fatally. Or was it the golden hero's instinct of some sort which made him move very last moment and save himself?
"You used Venus Driver. The same tactic won't going to work next time. He will be ready for it." Raynor said as he walked next to her.
"Then I will use it properly next time and shoot my Edin Shugra Quasar." She said simply before turning towards him and looking directly at his eyes.
"You will allow me to face him next time? I dislike unfinished business." She said that with slightly narrowed eyes. The black-haired Servant is ready to threaten if need be.
"We will see, you had your chance." He said that with a smirk making her narrow her eyes even more.
"I am your Goddess. You don't want to make me sad now do you?" She said that as a veiled threat.
"I don't want to see you sad. However, I have never seen you show such expression." The teen Master said that with a smirk making the Ashtart widen her eyes for a bit.
The goddess quickly realised where this was going!!!
"So, I don't know if you are going to be sad in the first place. Since you never show on your face." He said this with quite a sagely tone.
"...Master… don't go down that route. You owe me a fight!"
"And you just had one. I could have summoned Scathach who could have done short work out of Gilgamesh." He said that with an eye roll. He has lost count of how many versions of Gilgamesh his favourite God-Slayer has killed…
"...You going to blackmail me?" She asked with a chilly tone. Trying to project her Goddess aura on him.
Not that it worked, as Raynor crossed his arms and asked her with a raised eyebrow.
"And you going to threaten your Master?"
That moment both of them had a starting competition for a few moments.
However, it only lasted a few short moments as Space Ishtar had less ground in this 'fight'. Even though she is a Primordial Goddess, she was still his Servant and as any Servant, he had his Command Seals.
Not only that but her Master had another triumph card
He could recall her any time he wants.
"Fine! What does it you want?"
"We can discuss that after you are done with your fight. And yes, you can finish him off."
When she heard that once more she narrowed her eyes at him. This was sounding far too good to hear. Her Master only spoils his Saintess. And she is not his Saintess. There is always a hidden meaning behind it!
Is he going to demand something for another chance in battle!? A kiss perhaps!?
'That pervert!'
Raynor only rolled his eyes seeing a multitude of emotions going through Ashtart eyes. He doesn't need to be psychic to know what she was thinking, the girl was emitting her thoughts through her actions…
*Vroom!!*
The sound of an internal combustion engine spread through the street as the pair of Master and Servant looked at the source of this noise.
They saw a familiar blonde arrive on a motorbike, dressed in a black suit and her hair done in a ponytail. It was Saber of this war.
"I won't be battling this one Master. You would demand something of me again." The black-haired divine spirit said with a monotone voice.
"Very well. I don't mind, take a rest for now. I will summon you later." As Raynor said that he recalled Ashtart back into his phone and then looked at the new arrival.
"I suggest you call a Servant to fight! Otherwise, I will have to kill you." Artoria said quite seriously.
"It breaks my heart to hear you said that," Raynor said while putting his free hand on his chest. Pretending that he was hurt by her words. Honestly, he would, but this was not his Artoria… not one of few he had…
The blonde king of Britain frowned hearing that, as she transformed into her battle dress, followed by grabbing empty air. Or at least it looked this way.
"Hmm… I suppose I could use one of my Saber's against you." As he said that he looked at his phone and checked his Saber list.
"Well… let's use her." As he said that a card appeared above his phone screen he grabbed it and showed it to Artoria whose eyes widened.
She saw herself! But, it different kind of her?
Raynor threw the card casually and moments later it formed into a person.
It was identical to King of Knights…except it had paler blond hair and yellow eyes. The most striking thing was her clothing. She was dressed in black casual clothes.
A black jacket and denim shorts. With knee-long high heel shoes.
This was Saber Alter in her Shinjuku 1999 get up.
"My turn? Who is it this time?" She asked that as with black miasma her sword manifested in her hand. It was pitch black with red markings.
"You… who are you?" Artoria asked with disbelief.
'Who is she? Why does she looks just like me…only she is much…darker? What's that sword!?'
"We going to a skip the introductions. I did those too many times already. I am Saber Alter that's all you need to know." She said that as she took her step. The asphalt under her feet cracked as this darker Saber accelerated forward.
Artoria's eyes widened for a bit. She didn't expect such an attack! This version of her will fight with those clothes!? No armour at all!?
Sure enough, the King of Knights blocked the strike just in time. But, it blew her away! just how much force was behind that strike!?
It sends the Saber of the grail war flying several metres. With a flip, she landed on the ground.
"You…you using Mana Burst in your swings!"
"And you don't? I thought you do those…" Saber Alter asked with confusion as she looked at Raynor for a bit.
"Master?" She wanted an explanation.
"I have no idea what she means." The teen shrugged at his Servant.
"She is a new Servant… I think. So she, might doesn't know all the kinks of her abilities."
"Hmm? Wait! She ain't your goody two shoes?" Artoria Alter's eyes slightly widened as she looked at the blonde.
Right now the darkened Saber realised that she is not fighting her regular sparring partner at all!
This one…. This one feels like a hollow of her partner!
Weak even! Where did she end up in!?
