"Alright!"

Shirou secretly shouted in his mind.

I can win!

With his Chariot destroyed, Iskandar's last resort is to activate his Noble Phantasm, Ionioi Hetairoi. However, as a Reality Marble, it is uncertain what will occur when it clashes with another Reality Marble, such as Shirou's Unlimited Blade Works.

The outcome of the clash between the two Reality Marbles is uncertain and there are several possibilities of how the situation might play out. One possibility is that one Reality Marble will override the other. Another possibility is that they may coexist. The result could also be determined by the difference in magical energy between the two, the degree of mysticism, or the strength of the mental image of the user. Regardless, it is still uncertain as to which outcome will transpire.

Even though Shirou is uncertain about how his Reality Marble, Unlimited Blade Works, will fare against Iskandar's Noble Phantasm, Ionioi Hetairoi. However, with Spartacus by his side, the plan becomes clear.

If Iskandar activates Ionioi Hetairoi, Shirou will let Spartacus charge through, and at a crucial moment, he will activate his own Reality Marble, "Unlimited Blade Works," and launch a surprise attack on Iskandar. As long as there is a brief pause in Ionioi Hetairoi, the towering Spartacus will have enough time to break through and eliminate Iskandar.

A double fatality!

"The chariot... has been destroyed." Waver looked at the debris of the chariot and felt a sense of disappointment.

He couldn't help but feel that if he were more useful, if Iskandar had not had to use some of his energy to protect him, the chariot may not have been destroyed. He looked up at Iskandar, ready to express his regret but was caught off guard when he saw Iskandar laughing.

Even though the chariot was destroyed, and they were in a dire situation, Iskandar did not blame Waver, instead his face was filled with a conquering smile.

As they stood there, the towering Spartacus charged toward them, roaring loudly.

"Dong -, Dong -"

The ground shook and trees were effortlessly knocked down as if they were mere blades of grass as the giant Spartacus bore down on them with an overwhelming force, charging toward Iskandar!

Go, Spartacus! Claim victory!

Shirou shouted inwardly, his heart filled with anticipation.

It's over, it's over!

Waver's heart trembled.

The giant charged at them with relentless force, while the thunderstorm raged on with such ferocity that it seemed intent on consuming everything in its path. Iskandar, however, remained unfazed. He turned to Waver and asked calmly, "Have you ever lived in a big world, kid?"

Frustrated, Waver exclaimed, "You fool! How can you still expect to teach me anything? Haven't you seen what's happening right now?"

Iskandar let out a loud, booming laugh and raised the sword of the king high above his head. "I am Iskandar, the King of Conquest!" he proclaimed. "Tell me, what is conquest? What does it truly mean to conquer?"

Confusion was etched on Waver's face. Iskandar's words seemed like a question directed at someone, yet there was no one else there except themselves and their enemies in the midst of battle. Who was Iskandar asking? Was it the sky, the earth, or perhaps, Waver himself? The young mage couldn't help but wonder as he looked on in bewilderment.

Just as he was about to try to persuade Iskandar to focus, a sandstorm began to brew, rising up around them and engulfing everything in its path.

"Here it comes!" Shirou's heart tightened as Spartacus instinctively came to a stop beside him.
