...

"Hmph, I never expected two mongrels calling themselves 'King' to emerge in a single night!"

Golden particles of light coalesced in mid-air, eventually forming the figure of a majestic man clad in golden armor, standing atop a streetlamp and looking down upon the assembled Servants with disdain.

This was a heroic figure radiating an aura of authority and power.

His gaze and words conveyed a palpable sense of superiority.

"It's the Tohsaka family's Servant, the Archer who unleashed a barrage of Noble Phantasms to eliminate Assassin."

By now, almost all the Servants summoned for the Holy Grail War had made their appearance.

Only Archer and Berserker remained unaccounted for.

Despite the newcomer's arrogant demeanor, no one would mistake him for the Berserker class.

"Gilgamesh has arrived!"

"Then Lancelot should be close behind."

"With this, all seven Servants summoned for this Holy Grail War have finally assembled."

Mika cracked his knuckles, his eyes gleaming with anticipation.

Recalling the information Iskandar had relayed earlier, he couldn't help but feel a surge of excitement.

"Merlin, did you find him?"

"Indeed, I have," Merlin replied with a mischievous grin, pointing in a specific direction.

"Excellent."

Meanwhile, on the battlefield, Gilgamesh, the King of Heroes, was engaged in a heated debate with Iskandar regarding the true meaning of kingship.

In Gilgamesh's eyes, no one, aside from himself, was worthy of the title of "King."

Therefore, he viewed both Iskandar, the King of Conquerors, and Artoria, the King of Knights, as mere pretenders.

Naturally, Iskandar bristled at such disrespect, leading to a heated exchange of words.

However, their argument was cut short by the sudden appearance of a black figure charging towards Gilgamesh.

"RAAAAAAGH!"

The newcomer was none other than Lancelot.

Controlled by Kariya Matou, wielding the False Assassin's grimoire, he launched a ferocious attack on Gilgamesh.

"Ah, Kariya has finally made his move!"

Mika was particularly intrigued by the complicated history and animosity between Kariya Matou and Tokiomi Tohsaka.

"Should we create an opportunity for them to have a little 'chat'?" he wondered, observing Lancelot's relentless assault on Gilgamesh.

"How dare you show such disrespect to this King! You are a rabid dog deserving of death!" Gilgamesh roared furiously, his golden armor gleaming under the moonlight.

As he spoke, ripples appeared in the space behind him, revealing countless shimmering weapons slowly emerging from the void, as if connected to another dimension.

This was Gilgamesh's Noble Phantasm, Gate of Babylon!

Aiming his vast arsenal at the approaching Lancelot, Gilgamesh unleashed a volley of projectiles, intending to end the Berserker's life swiftly.

Just as he had effortlessly eliminated Assassin the previous night.

However, he had underestimated his opponent. Lancelot, the Knight of the Lake, was one of the most formidable knights in Arthurian legend.

As one of the greatest warriors of his era, his Personal Skill, "Eternal Arms Mastership," was a testament to his unparalleled combat prowess.

Eternal Arms Mastership: The crystallization of one's martial arts, honed to perfection through countless battles. It allows the user to wield any weapon with masterful proficiency, unaffected by mental interference, and unleash their full combat potential.

Due to this skill, Lancelot could utilize his full range of combat abilities even in his maddened Berserker state.

This was an invaluable asset for a Servant of the Berserker class.

After all, the inability to fully utilize their skills and knowledge from their past lives was often the greatest weakness of Berserkers.

While the Berserker class granted enhanced physical abilities, the loss of combat experience and technique significantly hampered their effectiveness.

After all, in battles between Servants, Noble Phantasms were often a last resort. Close-quarters combat was the primary focus.

For instance, Heracles, the mighty demigod of the Fifth Holy Grail War, would have been virtually unstoppable if he possessed a skill like "Eternal Arms Mastership."

In addition to this powerful skill, Lancelot's Noble Phantasm, "Knight of Ownerless Arms," also possessed a unique ability that could counter Gilgamesh's Gate of Babylon.

Knight of Ownerless Arms: Allows the user to imbue any weapon they wield with the properties of a Noble Phantasm and wield it with masterful proficiency. Weapons held by Lancelot gain a rank equivalent to D-rank Noble Phantasms. Weapons with a higher rank retain their original rank under Lancelot's control.

With the combined power of these skills and Noble Phantasms, Lancelot fearlessly charged towards the incoming barrage of weapons, his eyes fixed on the leading spear.

He reached out, effortlessly snatching the spear from mid-air and claiming it as his own through his Noble Phantasm.

Then, unleashing the full potential of "Eternal Arms Mastership," he deflected the remaining projectiles with incredible precision and skill. He then hurled the captured spear towards Gilgamesh, standing atop the streetlamp.

BOOM!

However, Gilgamesh was not easily defeated.

He swiftly countered the incoming spear with a volley of his own Noble Phantasms, shattering it into pieces.

By this time, Lancelot had reached the base of the streetlamp.

Under Lancelot's relentless assault, the streetlamp crumbled, sending Gilgamesh tumbling to the ground.

As he landed, surrounded by the other Servants, Gilgamesh's fury intensified.

"You mongrel! You dared to force this King to stand on the same level as you?!"

"You are deserving of death!"

Glaring at Lancelot, Gilgamesh unleashed the full power of Gate of Babylon. Thirty-two ripples appeared in the space behind him, each representing a separate firing point.

Previously, when facing Lancelot, he had only utilized sixteen firing points.

Witnessing this display of power, not only Iskandar and the other onlookers fell silent, but even Tokiomi Tohsaka, observing from the safety of his mansion, was taken aback.

While Tokiomi had granted Gilgamesh considerable autonomy after summoning him, even he was reluctant to reveal their trump card so early in the war.

"the King of Heroes, Gilgamesh, has lost control. Please make a decision quickly."

Kirei Kotomine, communicating with Tokiomi remotely, urged him to act decisively.

Tokiomi raised his arm, prepared to utilize a Command Spell to recall Gilgamesh.

However, before he could act, the situation at the harbor shifted once more, interrupting his actions.

...

Observing Gilgamesh's escalating rage, Mika knew that if he didn't intervene soon, Gilgamesh would be recalled by Tokiomi Tohsaka.

They wouldn't have the opportunity to engage him in battle.

He quickly signaled to Iskandar, indicating that the opportune moment had arrived.

Upon receiving Mika's signal, a wide grin spread across Iskandar's face.

He raised his hand, and the two bulls pulling the Gordius Wheel unleashed a torrent of lightning, striking at everyone present.

Their primary targets were Lancelot and Gilgamesh.

Caught off guard by the sudden attack, everyone scrambled to evade the deadly bolts of lightning.

"Are you declaring war on all the Servants present, King of Conquerors?!" Diarmuid roared, dodging the lightning and brandishing his spear towards Iskandar.

Facing their bewildered and enraged gazes, Iskandar let out a booming laugh.

"Everyone, lend me your ears!"

---

Earlier that day, Mika had received a message from Waver, relaying Iskandar's request.

In the letter, Iskandar expressed his desire for Mika to assist in locating the hidden Servants should anyone accept Lancer's challenge that night.

He also emphasized that if all the Servants were present, Mika should send him a specific signal.

He intended to welcome them all with a grand spectacle.

Upon reading Iskandar's message, Mika understood his intentions.

While his plan seemed reckless, it was perfectly in line with his personality.

Mika found himself intrigued by the prospect.

Therefore, he agreed to Iskandar's request and sent the signal upon confirming the presence of all the Servants.

...

Iskandar's booming voice captured the attention of all the Servants present.

However, their gazes were a mixture of confusion, curiosity, and, of course, anger.

Especially from Gilgamesh, whose battle had been interrupted.

"Mongrel! You dare interfere with this King's battle? Do you seek death?!"

Already enraged by Lancelot's relentless assault, Gilgamesh's fury intensified due to Iskandar's sudden intervention.

Sixteen of the thirty-two Noble Phantasm firing points behind him were now aimed directly at Iskandar.

However, he refrained from attacking immediately.

Despite his anger, he was also curious about Iskandar's intentions.

He decided to wait and hear what the fool had to say before eliminating him.

Gilgamesh possessed unwavering confidence in his own power.

Observing the situation from afar, Tokiomi Tohsaka lowered his arm.

As long as Gilgamesh didn't continue to reveal his full strength, Tokiomi was reluctant to recall him.

Understanding Gilgamesh's temperament, he knew that interfering with his intentions would only strain their relationship.

Therefore, he would only utilize a Command Spell as a last resort.

Meanwhile, Lancelot, under Kariya Matou's control, had ceased his attack after receiving a message from Mika.

While he longed to continue his assault on Tokiomi Tohsaka's Servant, he understood that his ability to control Lancelot depended entirely on Mika.

Without Mika's magical energy, Kariya, with his limited magical capacity, couldn't possibly sustain Lancelot's immense power.

Thus, a temporary silence fell upon the battlefield as everyone awaited Iskandar's proclamation.

Pleased with the silence, Iskandar nodded and declared, "You are all heroes of myth and legend, the mightiest warriors of your respective eras."

"I believe that encountering each other and engaging in battle must fill your hearts with excitement and anticipation."

Hearing this, Artoria and Diarmuid subtly nodded in agreement.

They shared his sentiment.

Merlin's expression remained unchanged, a playful grin still adorning his face.

As for Gilgamesh, he simply scoffed, his disdain evident.

"And this King feels the same!"

Iskandar continued, gesturing dramatically with his arms. "I desire to clash with every Servant present, to experience the might of heroes from different eras. However, such an opportunity is rare."

"But now, that opportunity has presented itself! Thanks to the battle between Saber and Lancer, all the Servants summoned by the Holy Grail have gathered here."

"Wonderful! Truly wonderful! Let us engage in a glorious free-for-all!"

As Iskandar's declaration echoed through the night, the expressions of the other Servants grew increasingly bewildered.

Waver, standing beside Iskandar, trembled, his legs threatening to give way.

"King of Conquerors, are you challenging all the Servants present simultaneously?"

The first to question Iskandar's intentions was Kayneth El-Melloi Archibald, Diarmuid's Master.

His words effectively positioned Iskandar as the enemy of all the other Servants present.

"So what if I am?!"

Iskandar's voice was calm, yet filled with unwavering conviction.

His composure only amplified his imposing presence.

Raising his sword, he pointed it at each of the Servants in turn and declared, "Will you accept the challenge of Iskandar, the King of Conquerors?!"

"If you wish to attack, then do so without further ado!" Artoria declared, drawing her sword.

"While I believe your strategy to be reckless, I shall honor your courage with a response," Diarmuid added, brandishing his twin spears.

"Hmph, a foolish mongrel with delusions of grandeur," Gilgamesh scoffed, his disdain growing.

"ROAR!" Lancelot roared ferociously.

"How intriguing," Merlin mused, his playful grin widening.

"..." The unseen Hassan remained silent.

"Hahaha! It seems you all accept my challenge!"

Iskandar's laughter abruptly ceased, replaced by a look of unwavering determination.

Raising his sword high above his head, he roared, "Come, my warriors! Let us face the challenge of these heroes!"

As Iskandar's voice echoed through the night, a surge of immense magical energy erupted from him, engulfing the surrounding area.

The other Servants, caught off guard by the sudden surge of power, were unable to react in time.

In an instant, every living being in the harbor was consumed by the overwhelming magical energy.

Iskandar's most powerful Noble Phantasm had been activated!

...

Spit!

Mika spat out the sand that had filled his mouth and chuckled. "So this is Iskandar's Reality Marble? Experiencing it firsthand is quite different."

Looking around, he quickly realized that not only the Servants but also their Masters had been drawn into Iskandar's realm.

"Master!"

Upon regaining his senses and realizing that his Master had also been transported into the Reality Marble, Diarmuid rushed to Kayneth's side, shielding him protectively.

Witnessing Diarmuid's actions, Artoria quickly scanned her surroundings and discovered that not only Irisviel but also Kiritsugu Emiya and his assistant, Maiya Hisau, had been drawn in as well.

"Irisviel!"

Seeing the three of them together, Artoria rushed to their side, placing herself between them and any potential threats.

"I'm alright, Saber!" Irisviel reassured her, shaking her head. She then looked around in astonishment. "How is this possible? This is a Reality Marble, a materialized world of the mind. You're not a magus!"

"Of course not!"

"I couldn't possibly achieve this alone."

With a wave of his hand, blurry images flickered around Iskandar like mirages in the desert.

"This is the world where my army once marched, a landscape etched into the memories of the soldiers who fought alongside me."

Within the shimmering sand, figures began to materialize before their eyes.

One, two, four... countless figures emerged from the dust.

Soldiers, generals, heroes...

An army of tens of thousands, marching in formation, slowly advanced towards them.

"These are all Servants!"

Upon becoming recognized Masters by the Holy Grail, they gained the ability to perceive a Servant's basic parameters.

And now, this ability allowed them to see the parameters of these countless soldiers.

"This is my unrivaled army!"

"And my most prized Noble Phantasm!"

"Ionioi Hetairoi!"
