Chapter 1457: Fragile

With Heracles and Atalanta out of the way, Vahn knew the vast majority of Jason’s power had been sealed away. His Noble Phantasm seemed to require that he convince those within to support him, something he would find extremely difficult without Heracles’ aid. While Jason was the actual Captain of the Argo, more than seventy of its eighty-five recorded members …

Chapter 1456: Bypass

Contrary to what might be expected from the fragmented spirit of a Sun Goddess, Tamamo used a combination of ice and fire elemental manipulation when battling. She was also much faster than a traditional caster, relying on her agility to dark between foes, blasting them with close-range spells or casting long range curses over a large area. This had the …

Chapter 1455: Aspirations

Seeing the sleeping Tamamo, curled up atop her cushioned throne with a contented smile on her face, Vahn turned to Artoria, earning a small sigh from her when he remarked, “She is pretty cute, isn’t she?” Though she knew Vahn was only speaking his mind, Artoria gave him a slightly pointed look as she answered, “You really have a thing …

Chapter 1454: Alternative Path

Situated a considerable distance from the other territories, to the point of being virtually inaccessible to anyone but Heroic Spirits, a large Japanese palace could be found. It was structured similarly to an ancient castle, complete with a tiered structure, tiled roofs, tall walls, and a variety of ornate statues, each a work of art in and of themselves. After …

Chapter 1453: *Spoilers: Title at End*

Situated a considerable distance from the other territories, to the point of being virtually inaccessible to anyone but Heroic Spirits, a large Japanese palace could be found.

Chapter 1452: Divergence : Unity

Following the conclusion of the banquet, Vahn, Artoria, and Musashi were escorted to the edge of the Yokai’s territory by Benienma and her flock of sparrow Yokai. She seemed to consider it part of her duties as the owner of an Enma-tei, ignoring the fact they hadn’t actually been her guests. Still, Vahn found the petite Yokai rather endearing, and, …

Chapter 1451: Demon’s Banquet (3/3)

Fortunately, even if he was tasked with eating all the food on the table, Vahn wouldn’t have any issues. His body could process a functionally infinite amount of food, o allowing him to consume hundreds of kilograms without even gaining a single himself. This was due to his ability to convert anything he ate into a micron of Source Energy, …

Chapter 1450: Demon’s Banquet (2/?)

Following his opening statement, Vahn ignored Shuten’s and Igaraki’s stupefied states, accepting Raikou’s invitation to enjoy the banquet that had been painstakingly prepared by Benienma. The food prepared by a Yokai was unnaturally delicious, but, unlike normal Yokai, Benienma put a lot of effort into mastering her craft. Since it was difficult to refuse a meal after imagining the petite …

Chapter 1449: Demon’s Banquet (1/?)

After scaling nine sets of 108 stone steps, Vahn, Artoria, and their tagalong, Musashi, reached what appeared to be a large Shinto Shrine Temple. Much of the structure was formed from wood that had been painted in reddish-orange, accented with pale gold, deep blacks, and a variety of vibrant colors to contrast the base white of the walls. As for …

Chapter 1448: Reproach

After refusing Benienma’s offer to stay in her premium suite, several times, Vahn eventually managed to convince the ‘young’ Proprietress to show them to Shirou. She had tried insisting that her guests not be disturbed, but, after asking how long Shirou had checked in for, she ‘begrudgingly’ led the way. Though Benienma wouldn’t make her guests leave, she couldn’t force …
