Type-Moon, but the Servant is Tom

Chapter 54: Is This the Attack Power of the Cat?



Chapter 54: Is This the Attack Power of the Cat?

In an instant unnoticed by everyone, Tom also put on a cowboy hat on his head, and his attire completely transformed into that of a cowboy. Not a single person noticed, yes, not even a single person noticed his change, including Bai Song, who was currently standing behind Tom.

"When did this happen?" Just as Arash was preparing to unleash a few more charged arrows, his vision blurred once again. He suddenly realized that Tom had changed into an extremely Western outfit, and the distance between them and Tom had shortened to less than 100 meters!

That's not all. In a daze, he discovered that the urban setting where they were supposed to be sniping just a moment ago had transformed into a sunny Western town! His Clairvoyance once again failed to detect Tom's transformation, and Arash was starting to seriously doubt if his Clairvoyance was a fake.

"A Reality Marble?!" After carefully placing Gudako on the ground, Mashu also looked around in astonishment. She heard Arash speaking and only then realized the change in the surroundings. It was almost bizarre. Although she hadn't seen many Reality Marbles, this one seemed to have been activated unusually quickly.

Usually, a Reality Marble, which is a super-sized magical Noble Phantasm, would require an incantation time. However, Mashu had been closely watching Tom and hadn't noticed his change until Arash mentioned it. She was taken aback by the sudden alteration in the environment.

The speed of this Reality Marble was simply ridiculous! Just as Gudako jumped off Mashu's back, she noticed that she narrowly avoided stepping on a pile of fresh horse dung. Her face turned green in an instant, "Eww, there's horse dung too!"

Realizing that she had come close to stepping on the fresh feces, Gudako quickly pinched her nose and took a few steps back, looking terrified.

"This Servant can activate a Reality Marble as well? Looks like we're dealing with a formidable enemy..." Arash tightened his grip on his bow and arrows, fully focused on Tom. He couldn't afford to be distracted any further.

Throughout his observation of Tom, he hadn't reacted to any of Tom's actions. It was truly terrifying. Arash had never heard of a cat Servant this powerful. The only one that came close was Atalanta, but she was a lion, not a cat. Moreover, even though Atalanta was fast, she wasn't this fast.

And now, it was evident that Tom had entered a true combat state, having even drawn his own weapon.

Imagine for a moment that Tom, who was possibly in a nonchalant state just now, effortlessly sends his ordinary arrows flying with two brushes, only to be caught off guard when he underestimates the power of one arrow. However, it is quite evident that he is already furious.

In other words, what Arash is about to face is an immensely powerful, lightning-fast, and enraged Heroic Spirit. It can be said that dealing with this adversary will be exceptionally challenging.

"Wait, this is not just any Reality Marble!" At that very moment, a voice suddenly emanated from Gudako's wristwatch, none other than Doctor Roman situated within Chaldea.

"The magnitude of this world's alteration is tremendous, surpassing even the scale of the Seventh Singularity that extended from the Middle East to the entire Indian Ocean. This time, the scale covers the entire Earth, making it truly a new 'world'!"

Upon hearing the doctor's words, Mashu immediately displayed an expression of disbelief and was the first to inquire, "So, you mean... they are the masterminds behind this Singularity, aren't they?"

"It is highly probable... can... beep beep beep..."

Before the doctor could finish speaking, the communication was once again cut off due to signal issues, just as they had established contact.

"For now, let's set aside these matters. The big one is approaching!" After Arash reminded them with these words, he continued to keep a close eye on Tom, who was coming their way, and began to bend his bow and set an arrow.

Upon hearing Arash's words, Mashu promptly raised her shield and assumed the optimal stance, exerting her utmost effort to block any potential attacks. "Understood!"

The battle was about to commence.

Once they closed in at an appropriate distance, Tom lifted the elephant-hunting rifle in his hand, which was longer than himself. Without any aiming, he closed his eyes and pulled the trigger.

"Boom!!!" Accompanied by a tremendous explosion, Tom, upon firing the gun, was sent soaring several decimeters into the air by the recoil, as if an invisible force pressed down on its hat.

"Bang~~~ !!!" The bullet instantly collided with Mashu's shield, emitting a resonant echo, and then... there was no further sound.

Mashu didn't even perceive the slightest hint of impact, not even the ordinary jolt one would experience from a light touch. Instead, in order to receive the bullet, Mashu stumbled forward due to the force she exerted while pushing her shield forward, nearly tumbling forward due to the momentum.

"Huh? This attack... is quite feeble." Mashu leaned forward and glanced at her shield's surface, where a flattened bullet was now stuck.

"Swoosh~" Then, a gust of wind blew by, carrying away the flattened bullet as if it had no weight at all.

Arash, who was nearby, also noticed the feebleness of this strike, and several question marks appeared above his head in confusion. "Huh, is that it?"

He couldn't comprehend it. This strike had such grand momentum, and the bullet's speed even surpassed the arrows he had just shot. Logically speaking, the attack should have been powerful, as speed equates to strength. But why was the attack so weak?

However, upon witnessing Tom's feeble attack, Arash suddenly felt emboldened. He swiftly dodged to the right, leaving the range protected by Mashu's shield, and prepared to unleash a series of consecutive shots to deal with Tom.

However, in the instant Arash appeared after his dodge, before he even had a chance to draw his bow, Tom happened to press the trigger of his rifle once again.

"Boom!!!" Similar to the previous shot, the bullet flew out at an incredible speed. However, there was one difference this time: instead of hitting the shield, it struck Arash directly in the abdomen.

"Blurgh?!" With the bullet hitting his abdomen, Arash's facial expression changed drastically from initial confidence to something else entirely.

The bullet hit him in the lower abdomen, and from a distance, Arash now resembled a slanted U shape. Using that as a pivot point, his entire body was sent flying backward with great force, crashing heavily into a building several tens of meters away.
