When I woke up in another dimension, surrounded by nothingness and a ROB. I did not know I would be offered to quest around the multiverse to fix different problems or gain power. But we both knew the real reason; it was more than simply questing ac...
After the men had eaten their fill, they cleaned up and bowed to me after it was revealed that I was the one who cooked the food, and some even had tears in their eyes as a noble feeding the average soldier is almost unheard of.
I accept their thanks and form their lines, and we march towards the two other generals Nero has under her purview.
The main plan is to meet up and group the two armies together and fight into the capital, defeat their leader, and take the grail.
The plan is simple, but this is the Fate universe, so a wrench has to be thrown into our work somewhere, and that wrench exists in the form of a certain Spartan King. As we cross the plains and forests of Gaul, we see a force guarding the way forward.
Ritsuka and Nero, who had taken up residence on my back, then hop off as Nero says to herself, "This is an ambush it has to be. Ready yourselves, men!"
The soldiers then form their lines as we march slowly toward the other army, but before we meet them, Mash asks, "Why do those soldiers seem more similar to servants than normal humans?"
That is a good question, but I can think of why, and I say, "This is most likely the work of a noble phantasm that acts as a means of increasing the strength of one's soldiers. This will be tough for the normal men." Mash nods as Ritsuka readies herself with the other servants prepared to do battle.
But before the two armies can charge at one another, an authoritative voice exclaims from the enemy, "Hold! Who dares to walk so brazenly towards my forces?!" A man then walks in front of his men in nothing but a helmet and cape, wearing not even chest armor but leather underwear and basic gauntlets.

Nero then yells back, "I am Nero, Empress of Rome, and you must be one of the generals of the United Roman Empire. Who are you, foreign general?"
The man then looks at Nero through his helmet and says, "I am Leonidas, King of Sparta! Lancer class. We stand before you to defend this empire from all invaders now. Will you continue this?"
Nero nods as Mash says, "Leonidas! The man who led the three hundred Spartans against Persia. This will be difficult. I hope you are ready, delusional Master." Ritsuka looks at Mash and says, "I feel like you do not trust me, Mash, but I will be fine. I have this armor after all, but Oz, try to keep the really buff gut from hitting me, please."
I nod as I shield her with multiple skin-level wards, and as she nods at me, Nero raises her sword and yells, "For Rome! Death to the pretenders!" The men repeat the chant and charge the hundreds of other spectral Spartans. Leonidas himself looks at me, and I blitz my way to the front as I feel Leonidas smile under his helmet.
He takes his spear as I take out my own, and I feel the power of my Telesto spear seem almost excited. As we clash, he attempts to stab me. I parry the strike and slam my fist into his helmet.
