Chapter 35 - Chapter 35: The Unlucky Golden Retriever

"Two arrogant individuals, disregarding my authority and proclaiming themselves kings, have sprung up overnight." Dreamlike golden dust rose from the tip of a lamppost ten meters above the ground, gathering and dispersing until finally revealing an incredibly dazzling figure. Hmm! A perfect entrance.

He was a tall, slender young man with blond hair and red eyes. His short, brilliant blond hair stood up like burning flames, swaying in the night wind. His crimson pupils were like the purest red agate set in his eye sockets. A dazzling golden luxury enveloped every detail of his body except for his head.

"Even if you speak rudely, I, Iskandar, am still the world's most famous conqueror." Rider hadn't expected someone even more powerful than himself to appear, and scratched his chin in confusion as he spoke.

"In this world, the only heroes who can truly be called kings are myself and my closest friends. The rest are nothing but bastards!" This utterly unbridled declaration of arrogance even angered Saber, but Rider remained magnanimous, somewhat surprised and sighing. He had gleaned some clues about Gilgamesh's identity from his words.

Just as the two were exchanging questions and answers.

"That idiot, even Enkidu couldn't stop him?" Erza looked at the flamboyant blond guy and surveyed the scene. Sure enough, where he had appeared before, the green-haired guy's face had turned black. The brick in his hand was crushed to pieces; may you rest in peace in heaven. Gilgamesh! Erza gave the blond guy standing on the lamppost with pity.

"Time! Let's begin the grand spectacle!" Erza communicated remotely, while Time, who was truly clutching his head in a headache, replied that it was only the first act and they shouldn't make things too big. Everything else was up to him!

"Lance, go beat that blondie up," Erza said to the girl beside her. The knight girl understood. That guy! She'd wanted to beat him up for ages.

"Yes, Master!" What is Lancelot now? Berserker. What are the synonyms for a berserker? Madness, belligerence, frenzy, bloodlust, and a willingness to sacrifice oneself!

Even though Lancelot's summoning by Erza broke the side effects of his class due to the immense magical power, it only buried his berserker nature deeper, not eliminated it. And just now! That blond-haired guy insulted her noble king! He actually dared to call her king a 'bastard'! Enraged by Gilgamesh's words, Lancelot is ready to transform into a raging beast at any moment, turning this Servant who belittled and humiliated her beloved into dust!

"Go, Berserker." Seeing that Erza had heard her command, she ordered the troops to move out.

"Whoosh..." In an instant, Lance's rationality began to fade, replaced by madness and murderous intent. This surged from his red eyes, and the black magic around him ignited like fire doused in oil. Berserker! He began to go berserk.

"Alright! I'll begin too!" Erza stretched and disappeared from the spot.

On the other side, a tall, burly man and a blond boy were arguing fiercely! They were about to start fighting, taking off their clothes (why take off their clothes?). Suddenly! A scene that appeared drew everyone's attention.

"This...this is...! Oh no, I completely forgot about Enkidu!" The golden retriever, upon seeing the familiar figure, suddenly! His IQ returned to normal, and a cold sweat broke out on his back as he remembered. He had abandoned his best friend in a moment of anger—what a disaster!

"That figure...it seems so familiar!" Saber stared at the black figure in confusion, unable to place it in her mind. None of the people she knew possessed such volatile magic!

"This kind of violent magic! It's definitely Berserker without a doubt," a red-haired giant analyzed, stroking his chin.

"Ugh~~~~" Ignoring the scrutinizing gazes, Lance, now in a berserk state, faithfully carried out his Master's orders: beat up the blond-haired guy!

"You bastard! You're asking for death, aren't you!" Enraged by Lance's glare, the blond-haired man's intelligence began to wane. He immediately unleashed his Noble Phantasms, six golden beams flashing. The six Noble Phantasms shot towards Lance, but he nimbly dodged them. He also casually took a sword, which made the blond-haired man standing on the lamppost purse his lips in annoyance.

"Let's see how much you can take!" Golden Retriever overheard Shi Chen's plan and thought, "Since we're going to fight, let's fight!"

Suddenly, red and gold ripples flashed in the void.

In the next instant, the blade, gleaming with dazzling light, suddenly appeared in the empty sky.

Swords, spears, halberds, axes, hooks, and forks, all adorned with dazzling brilliance, exuded a nauseatingly strong magic even without revealing their true names.

Behind the blond-haired man, a door opened, accompanied by his goofy grin. It was a momentary stunner! But Lance, the one being targeted, launched his own attack, violent magic swirling around him. He unleashed his attack on the Streetlight King!

"Hmph! Overestimating your abilities." The blond-haired man waved one hand. Hundreds of radiant magical weapons shot out simultaneously from the void behind him!

The roar shattered the silence of the night, and the continuous flashes of light seemed to sweep across the entire night sky. The immense destructive power of the Noble Phantasms made it hard to believe that these were merely thrown swords and other weapons. The blades of the Noble Phantasms sliced ​​into the ground as easily as hot knives cutting through butter, and even the onlookers were touched by specks of the Noble Phantasms.

"Honestly! Why don't you pay attention?" Erza, who was observing the lady near the container, was interrupted. Don't misunderstand! She was just checking to see exactly where the Lesser Grail was on the lady's body.

"Sigh! Just pretend, really, why take it so seriously!" Erza sighed, watching the two getting more and more excited.

"Enkidu, did you hear me!" Erza activated a communication spell and instantly made contact. Someone was truly enraged!

"I heard you!" The tone didn't seem very good. Oh well! In the end, it will all be settled with some golden retriever.

"Call that golden retriever... cough cough! Gilgamesh away, otherwise! It won't be good if they really fight."

"But if I intervene in the battlefield now, won't I be exposed? Won't that attract a group attack from others?" Enkidu asked with some concern.

"Don't worry! I'll teleport him to you. Go and calm him down." Erza instantly used a flash spell, engulfing the entire battlefield in blinding light. Then, Erza immediately set up a teleportation circle at the feet of a blond-haired man, activated it, and the blond-haired man vanished!

"Tch! Cherish your life! I'll take it, hahaha~~~" Erza used voice-changing magic to mimic Gilgamesh's tone! While everyone was still completely bewildered, the Golden Hair Teleportation Plan was completed!

"Berserker! Come back!" The appearance of Berserker's Master and the departure of the blond-haired warrior seemed completely unrelated. After all, how could such a proud fellow possibly form an alliance with someone else?

"Well then! My apologies, everyone. As the Master of the Berserkers, I apologize to you all," Erza said, putting on her own monologue for the remaining group.

"Haha~~, this is truly gratifying! Berserker's Master!" It seems even this usually thick-skinned guy is having a hard time! That kind of guy.

"Alright! Let's do it now! Everyone, next time Berserker will definitely crush you all with all his might." Erza greeted everyone one by one, then dragged away the knight girl who was practically unable to move, watching Saber. No one came out to stop her; after all, it was only the first day. There was no need to get serious!
