After a few minutes of fierce fighting, Ryuga and Karna finally won.
Ryuga successfully broke through the defense of the Golden Armor with the Sword Skill "Three Blind Slashes" that she learned from Okita Soki when she was in Chaldea, and under the power of the mysterious assassin, who had reached the level of A, she successfully injured Karna.
After the mysterious assassin reached the level of A, he gained the ability to attack servants with the power of heaven and earth, but subservants and pseudo-servants were not included in this list.
All heroic spirits were divided into camps. Generally speaking, they were divided into four camps: Heaven, Earth, Human, and Star.
Among them, the "Heaven" camp generally referred to the fallen spirits of the gods, or the children of God, the embodiment of legends, and so on.
The "Earth" camp referred to the heroes who had integrated into a certain land, such as fairies, monsters, and so on.
The "Human" camp referred to the heroes and great men who had actually existed after the Western calendar. Basically, great men who had contributed to mankind were deified by the public after their death, but there were also examples of people who were already supermen when they were alive.
The last "Star" camp was particularly rare. It generally referred to the heroes who were the hope of mankind, and it was often a symbol of breaking through difficulties.
Take this Holy Grail War as an example. Karna, the Son of God, was a follower of the Heavenly Camp. Vlad III, a hero who integrated into Romania, was in the Earthly Camp. Caster, the magician who made stone puppets, was in the Human Camp.
As for Ryuga, although she was not a child of God, and there were no legends about her, because she was a ghost king, she was similar to the monsters, so she was a hero of the Earth camp.
In view of this, servants like Karna and Vlad III were actually all in Ryuga's special attack range. Once they fought, Ryuga naturally had a huge advantage.
And this time, the reason why Karna was seriously injured was not only that the sword skill "Three Blind Slashes" was powerful enough, but also that the mysterious assassin could restrain Karna to a large extent.
"Phew …"
Ryuga heaved a sigh of relief. The Shura Incarnation Armor on her body gradually disappeared because it did not meet the requirements of "both swords in hand". The numbness in her body also gradually eased.
The golden armor had reduced 90% of the damage, but Karna was still heavily wounded. Even though the recoil had been reduced multiple times, Ryuga's muscles were still numb.
Due to the intense battle, both of them did not have the chance to use their relic.
However, it was exactly because of this that Ryuga had been able to secure a clean victory. If he had allowed Karna to use his treasure artifact, then perhaps even he would have had to expend more effort to defeat him.
After all, this was still the early stages of the Holy Grail War. There was no need for him to reveal too much of his strength. Otherwise, it wouldn't be a good thing if he attracted too much fear and ended up being targeted.
That being said, even Ryuga's power that she had revealed so far was already rather excessive in terms of defeating Karna.
At this moment.
After being sent flying for hundreds of meters, Karna could feel the turbulence of the Spirit Core in his heart and the special attack power hovering around his body. He could not even stand up for a moment.
If it weren't for the golden armor that reduced 90% of the damage, he would have returned to the Seat of Heroes by now.
He never thought that he would encounter such a powerful enemy in the very first battle of the Holy Grail War.
However, personally speaking, he did not feel too bad.
At least this time, he had been defeated by his opponent in a one-on-one battle without using any tricks. Naturally, he did not feel any dissatisfaction in his heart.
"… I have indeed lost this time."
Karna struggled to support his body and stood up with a slight hunch. There was even an extremely faint smile on his face.
"However, it seems that my master does not intend to let me die yet … I'm sorry, but it seems that life and death will only be decided next time."
At the same time, his body became transparent in a very abrupt spatial fluctuation. In the end, he disappeared in front of Ryuga and the girl's eyes.
His departure was very sudden.
That was probably because Karna's master had used a command spell to forcibly teleport him away.
The master could see the servant's vision and communicate with the servant by chanting, so they could also understand the servant's battle situation.
Once the servant lost the battle, although their reaction might not be fast enough, as long as they had a few seconds, they could use a command spell to forcibly transfer their servant away.
Such a reaction was within his expectations.
The command spell originally had this kind of function. It was precisely because of this that as long as one was careful, very few servants would leave the battle in the early stages of the Holy Grail War.
But he did not care much. After all, if he could defeat his opponent once, he could do it again.
"What a wonderful battle."
It was not until the battle between the two was over that the blonde girl stepped forward and praised Ryuga highly.
"To be able to defeat the hero who gave you alms, even in the Seat of Heroes, there are very few people who can do it. Please allow me to pay my respects to this battle!"
Her blue eyes were full of sincerity, and there was not the slightest falsehood in her words. She was full of praise for Ryuga's strength.
"As you can see, I am a servant of the Ruler rank. My real name is Jeanne Darke. Thank you for your previous rescue, Black Saber."
Jeanne Darke, or Joan of Arc for short.
The French hero who liberated Orleans from the Hundred Years War. She was also the most well-known Catholic saint in the world. Her popularity was comparable to that of Saint George and Saint Martha. Therefore, she was also known as "Saint Joan of Arc" and "Saint Virgin of Salvation".
Although she was once belittled as a witch in history, she was soon rehabilitated and was crowned as a "saint" by the Vatican. In essence, she was a very pure and holy girl.
"You really didn't intervene?"
Ryuga relaxed her body, and the self-healing ability of Ghost Blood restored her body to its peak state. Then she turned around and looked at Jeanne Darke.
"I thought you would help me during the battle between Karna and me, or directly use your authority as a judge … I didn't expect that you really didn't do anything. You just watched. You are really rigid."
"…"
Jeanne blinked. She didn't react. I praised you so much. Why are you blaming me again?
"No, didn't I say that I can't intervene in the battle between the red and the black side …"
"Then you might as well quit being a judge."
Liu Xia glanced at her and said indifferently, "No matter what kind of competition it is, the referee's dignity should be the highest. Any contestant who offends the referee will be punished according to the degree of the offense. If it's serious, it won't be strange for them to be kicked out of the competition.
"If you don't do anything when the enemy is already right in front of you, what dignity do you have left? Who will recognize you as a judge? "
