"Crying!!"
The mysterious female protagonist's hands went numb as she held the sword.
"Galaxy Meteor Sword!!!"
The sword in the hand of the mysterious heroine X emitted a dazzling blue starlight.
She swung her hand forward forcefully, and a blue beam of light shot towards Berserker.
Berserker's massive body was burned with a large hole.
Seeing the huge hole she had punched through the Berserker, the mysterious heroine X finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"He should be dead now."
But before the mysterious heroine X could relax, the Berserker, who had already fallen, suddenly stood up slowly again.
The large hole burned in his chest slowly healed and returned to normal.
"Damn it!! He's still alive."
The mysterious female protagonist, X, felt immense pressure.
After all, she still doesn't understand why a Servant who had already died has stood up again.
Otosaka Souji, who was watching the battle from the sidelines, knew this.
The Berserker class is actually named Hercules, and is commonly known as Uncle B.
His true identity is Heracles, the son of Zeus in Greek mythology and a great hero.
Berserkers are all Berserkers.
Berserker Heroic Spirits are a type of Servant that specializes in destruction through "Berserk Mode".
Therefore, Berserker-class Servants are more powerful in terms of attributes than Servants of other classes.
The price was the loss of reason.
However, even when Heracles loses his mind, he remains a battle-hardened hero.
Because Hercules's honed skills had long been ingrained in his muscle memory.
Even without intelligence, following one's instincts makes for an exceptionally powerful warrior.
Another regrettable thing is...
Because he lost his mind due to berserk rage, Heracles was unable to use his most powerful Noble Phantasm, "Shoot the Hundred Heads".
In ancient Greek mythology, the heads of the Hydra would grow back even if they were cut off.
After Hercules killed the Hydra with a bow and arrow, he was able to mimic the bow's power with a greatsword and bring this attack method to its fullest potential.
The phrase "shooting a hundred heads" is also an elevation of the feat accomplished by Hercules.
However, due to his berserk state, Berserker is unable to use this Noble Phantasm.
If summoned in another capacity, Hercules could recreate this style of swordsmanship, which is both bold and exquisite.
Although he cannot use the most powerful Noble Phantasm, "Shoot Down a Hundred Heads," he can use another very powerful Noble Phantasm, "Twelve Trials."
The Twelve Trials is a Noble Phantasm that encapsulates the concept of "never losing until the eleventh battle."
The Twelve Trials, unbeknownst to many, are the twelve trials that Hercules underwent.
Hercules accomplished twelve heroic deeds in twelve years:
First, skin the Nemea Lion;
Second, kill the Hydra;
Third, they captured a doe alive on Mount Kerunea;
Fourth, capture the Erymanthos boar alive;
Fifth, clean Augeas's cattle sheds within a single day (they hadn't been cleaned in 30 years);
Sixth, drive away the strange bird from Lake Stinfalos;
Seventh, taming the bulls on Crete;
Eighth, a herd of mares from Diomedes brought back to Mycenae;
Ninth, to seize the belt of Hippolyta, Queen of the Amazons;
The tenth is to bring back the herd of cattle belonging to the giant Gryphon;
The eleventh is to pluck the golden apples of the Hesperides;
The twelfth is Cerberus, the vicious dog that brought back to Hades (the three-headed dog of Hades).
Simply put, the twelve trials involve twelve lives.
And it's not just a simple twelve lives.
Each time a Berserker is killed, the method that killed him the last time will no longer be able to kill him again when he revives.
In other words, each time he revives, he will develop a correspondingly strong resistance to the thing that killed him last time.
Each method can only kill him once.
Although the "Twelve Trials" Noble Phantasm is incredibly powerful, it still has its limits.
Artoria's Noble Phantasm, Excalibur, can wipe out all seven of Berserker's lives in one go.
The mysterious heroine X's "Galaxy Meteor Sword" is also very powerful.
Otosaka Souji estimated that he should be able to take down two or three of Berserker's lives.
If we use our final Noble Phantasm, "Nameless Victory Sword," we might actually be able to kill Berserker.
Of course, this is on the premise that the mysterious heroine X's "Nameless Victory Sword" can kill Berserker's ten lives in one go.
What exactly is the situation? Otosaka Souji had no idea.
Let's return to the mysterious female protagonist, X.
The mysterious female protagonist X uses her intuition to constantly dodge, and doesn't dare to confront the Berserker head-on.
"This guy... is really strong!"
The only response to the mysterious heroine X was a momentary, irrational roar.
"Roar~~"
The mysterious female protagonist X tries several times to use her agility to defeat the Berserker again.
Unfortunately, Berserker, with his combat skills ingrained in his genes, easily dealt with the situation.
"This is too agile, it doesn't resemble a berserker at all."
"It must be a highly renowned heroic spirit."
"Eroded by rage, yet his swordsmanship remained steadfast."
Standing to the side, Illya, who was watching the battle just like Otosaka Souji, smiled and cheered for Berserker with great enthusiasm.
"Berserker, you are invincible."
When Otosaka Souji heard the word "invincible," he shook his head and said...
"Invincible? Not necessarily."
Who dares to claim invincibility? Who dares to say they are undefeated?
The mysterious heroine, X, dared not be distracted and could only shout loudly.
"Master!!"
In an instant, Otosaka Souji understood the mysterious heroine X's intentions.
"Assassin, I grant your permission. Use your Noble Phantasm!"
"Very good, now it's my turn to perform."
With Otosaka Souji's approval, the mysterious heroine X smiled excitedly, a slight smile playing on her lips.
"Starlight Sword! Red, white, and black should all be dispersed, but I must keep it a secret from everyone~ 'Nameless~Victory Sword (Ex~calibur)'."
Originally, the mysterious female protagonist X was just someone who wielded a white lightsaber.
Now another black lightsaber has appeared.
Dual-sword style, wielding a sword in both the left and right hands.
If you look closely, you'll find that one is the same Excalibur as Artoria Saber, and the other is a corrupted version of Excalibur like Alter.
The mysterious heroine X, assuming a dual-sword stance, transformed into a shooting star and passed through the Berserker.
That wasn't all. The mysterious heroine X launched another attack, her impenetrable sword beams striking Berserker's body.
The final two sword strikes left a crisscrossing cross of light on Berserker's body.
