IV / Barbatos, the Control Tower

Activate. Activate. The nine pillars that govern the Control Tower:

Paimon. Buer. Gusion. Sitri. Beleth. Leraje. Eligos. Caim.

We nine pillars assist with integration. We nine pillars maintain the terminals.

In the name of the 72 Demon Gods, nothing shall stop this integration...!

Ha! Too bad, Demon Gods! If the duty for you nine is to organize...

My job is to mess it all up! Remember how I smashed that glorious Round Table to smithereens!?

...That's right. Everything must come to an end.

A proud, shining royal castle will eventually crumble. Knights clad in armor and bearing swords will all die at some point.

One day, I'm sure the world will end, too. However, you wretches won't be the ones to cause it. No way.

The end of the world won't be anything like this.

In fact, this will be YOUR end. You've already had more than your share of reducing things to ashes.

So let's end it. I'll sing a requiem for you!

Saber, be careful of your magical energy reserves. You may have managed to materialize, but your existence is unstable.

You never seem to have a proper Master, and this is different from a Holy Grail War. It's very curious.

...Does that go for me, too? Looks like I'm not human here...

Hee, heehee! Hyahahahahahahahahaha...!!

Here it comes, here it comes! Here it comes, here it comes, here it comes! Hyahahahaha! Now we're talking! I'm heeere!

What's going on? My head's all messed up inside! Where am I? What am I? Isn't this Ogawa-heim!?

This ain't London, so this ain't a Singularity! And Master ain't here, so it can't be a Holy Grail War!

Hey, hey, what the hell is this!? You were havin' a bloody massacre party and no one thought to invite me!?

Shut up, already! Quit screaming or I'll cut you up!

...I-I'm back. Sorry, Saber. This was all because I used too much of the elixir...

Like I keep telling you, stop risking your life when you're not even sure if you're a Heroic Spirit!

I think, even more than before, there's something else mixed inside you.

First of all, you can't be serious about switching yourself back and forth during combat. You just need to back me up.

Got it? If you get out of hand, I'll kill you.

Precisely. Control yourself. Leave the enemy to us!

Observe! The thunder of the gods hath come! Heh-heh, heh, hahahahahahahaha! A perfectly executed three-phase electrical current!

Th-that output... and that high-pitched laugh...!!!

Oh. It's him. Though I figured he would show up.

Pardon me for taking my time to get down the giant thunder and lightning stairway! Indeed, Nikola Tesla is here!

Why are you fashionably late to the fight!? Are you an idiot!?

I was escorting a maiden who was lost. Heh. I do not care if you forgive me or not.

Uhh, uhh... Uuuh, uuuh...!!!

Is that Fran over there!? I see. So you came, too.

This is, how can I put it? Amazing, in a way. For all three of us electricity-related talents to be here...

This kind of thing doesn't happen every day. All right, I'll collect data... Um, for later...

Sheesh, cut the unnecessary crap, old man! Granted... it's not a bad thing we're all here.

FranOh, wait. Which one are you?

Are you still alive, like last time, or are you a Heroic Spirit? Or are you ambiguous like Jekyll over here?

Uuh, uuh. Uuh...!!!

Huh. I see. Glad to hear it!

You heard her. Jekyll, she's joining the fight!

Huh? But... Fran is...

She's not Fran. She's Frankenstein. The one I scrapped once before... Well, you know how it is!

See!? She's a Berserker!

Uuuuuuh, naaaaaaaaaaaa!!!

Wonderful electricity! This pure thunder and lightning that stirs up the atmosphere is definitely alternating current!

And what a marvelous will to fight. Milady, it seems you're trying to fry the Demon God Pillars.

Then let's conquer them together! The three of us together will be more than enough to take out the nine pillars!

That may be, but let's avoid just recklessly rushing at the enemy! Without supplies, this will become a battle of attrition. Offense alone...

Ah. What?

Well... While I don't have an eye for battle like a Master from a Holy Grail War...

...Our formation is leaning heavy into offense. Of course, we do need to strike the enemy first to check things out...

But once this becomes a drawn-out battle... Especially you, Fran. Between Fran, Saber, and Tesla, who would drop first?

That would be me. My stamina parameters are especially low. At least on paper. But I compensate with my skills.

Which means we definitely have to think about protecting our lady Berserker in an effective manner!

If that is the case, make use of me, Nikola Tesla. And all of you who fight against the encroaching final waves.

My vision and delusions have vanished completely, but the vestiges of your future remain. Don't let them disappear.

I obtained a faint glimpse of the future at the end of Fujimaru's path and it's not half-bad. That's why I came.

Oh hey, old man Babbage!

Uuh, uuh...!

Mr. Charles Babbage, clad in steel armor! With his help, a more defensive formation will be possible!

My armor shall be the steel shield that protects you all.

Is that right!? Then I'll be the sword!

I'll slice through the heavens, cleave the ground, and slash through the Demon Gods along with the sky! Yes, that's the electric spark of my treasured sword!

The unparalleled Golden Spark!!!

He's here! Mr. Golden!

Hey, long time no see, Suits! I dropped everything when I heard the call!

Of course it wasn't you fellows. It was a more delicate, weaker voice.

A frustrated voice that couldn't bear it anymore. It was the shout of numerous someones right at the moment their world was incinerated.

Imagine all the things people wanted to do. Mothers were preparing meals, brats were looking forward to playing again the next day...

...I don't get it at all. It's crazier than riding my bike with a helmet!

What I don't get is how some people can't seem to understand just how precious those things are in people's lives!

Never mind humanity and the future, let's straighten out these numbskulls first!

For the sake of the uneventful everydays that they torched...

...and the people who just wanted a normal life but couldn't get it, I'm gonna kick some demon ass!

I'm Kintoki, Sakata Kintoki. One of Raikou's Four Heavenly Kings!

I smash devils, punch fiends, and sometimes ride a golden machine!

...Your name is different from what you said last time! What's the big idea, Golden Brave!?

I'm gonna do this! Here I go! A flash of thunder and lightning, Gorgeous Golden Rider...

...Traaansfooorm!!!

!!!!!

Uuh, uuh... Trans... form...!

Brilliant quick change, or rather, transformation. It is as if his Spirit Origin itself changed!

That's ridiculous! I-I mean, isn't it!?

All right, observe!

When the world needs it, electricity-related Heroic Spirit fools with no other connection show up!

They turn up the juice and charge into danger! Like it or not, going back's a no thank you!

Hey! Heroes! Are ya ready to rock 'n' roll all night!?

Huh? Hey, who the hell are you talking to, bozo!? Where do you think's the best place to rock, anyway!?

Heh. It's always and everywhere, dumbass!

We're already in the middle of our own big rock 'n' roll set!
