Replica (2/5)

Lord Agravain, the front gate's been destroyed! We must tell the Lion King!

It's only a matter of time before they make it to the castle town... Tell the king to use his Light of Judgment!

There's no need. Even if the front gate has fallen, we still have the Knights of the Round Table.

Tristan is stationed in the castle town. Mordred's forces are outside.

Their momentum is temporary. That sandstorm will soon disappear. Continue the fight until it does.

No, Sir Mordred's unit has been routed! It no longer exists!

...That is a surprise. The greatest surprise since I have come to the Holy Land.

...What happened?

Yes, well...um... Sir Mordred's raiders were defeated by another similar unit.

...

Sir Lancelot has betrayed us. The Knight of the Lake no longer stands with the Holy City!

This is the Holy City... Camelot, created by the sacred lance. ...At last, I've made it...

There's no time to feel sentimental! A massive number of magical energy responses is approaching!

Until now it's been a mix of soldiers and Enforcement Knights, but these guys aren't even human anymore...

They're a type of divine construct created by the sacred lance's magical energy, and more powerful than anything we've faced before!

？！

...Nobody's here. There's no sign that they're hiding in the buildings.

The people of the Holy City are gone. Only the soldiers are here.

Maybe... the Holy Selection is over and the people have been absorbed by the sacred lance?

I'm not sure about that. If that was the case, the vicinity around the Holy City would be at the edge of the world already.

There's a good chance they've been evacuated since the battle started. To the Lion King, the citizens are irreplaceable people...

Or irreplaceable parts, right.

...That's right... You're right, but...

I'm sorry, that was wrong of me to say! Anyway, for now, let's fight!

They're coming! These are the Enforcement Knights directly assigned to the Holy City! There's no need to hold back!

They're clones of the Lion King. Consider this a warm-up!

We've eliminated the Enforcement Knights! The path's clear, Master!

Looks like you guys are the first.

The Allied Forces' soldiers are coming inside the city, but there's a lot of them. They'll run into the Enforcement Knights eventually.

Their forces are taking control of the area around the main gate and heading towards the center of the city... the castle.

They're about an hour or so behind you, I think. Let's get to the castle while they're distracting the city's soldiers!

Right! Let's head to the castle before the other Knights of the Round Table catch up, Senpai!

It's very noisy out there, Agravain. Did you allow invaders into the Holy City?

...So it seems. I failed to realize they had enough to stop Sir Gawain.

The main gate has fallen, and the enemy is inside the city. So please, my liege.

There is no need to waste any more time. The Holy Selection is finished. All that remains is your decision.

...Bring the Tower at the Ends of the World here. Create the millennial kingdom you once failed to create in Britain!

Create the ideal country, which threatens no one, and which no one may invade.

I will simply watch the results.

...Very well. If Agravain of Iron wishes for such a thing, I shall grant it.

The waves from the Ends of the World have reached my throne. The Round Table will close, and this area will become a stairway.

Camelot will be visited by a time of stormy waves. It is time for all to be ruled by my hand, in the name of the King of Storms.

I can see it...! Up ahead is the king's area! At the top of that castle is the Lion King!

Wait! The magical energy gauge is maxed out! Stop! Stop, everyone!

This response matches the level of a space-time fracture! Something huge is about to appear there!

What is this...!?

Doctor, it's a wall! Something that looks like a wall of light is surrounding the castle!

...! This light is the same as the sacred sword... It's the exterior of the sacred lance Rhongomyniad!

...So the Lion King was ready a long time ago! Romani, what's the amount of heat energy around the city looking like?

It's rising rapidly! And I'm detecting a gravitational collapse from all corners of that era!

The world has started to close! The far end of the world that Sanzang saw...

That empty space, it's heading right for the Holy City!

It's begun... the Tower at the Ends of the World is going to be made so soon!

Enemy response approaching! Everyone, be ready! The enemy's getting close!

Okay, the situation has started to heat up! No time to think, huh?
