"Monitors are in order. Your time is seven on the dot. Not a single cloud in the sky. The Holy City is right before us... There are hordes of soldiers around the main gate. Looks like they've noticed our advance. The Allied Forces and the Holy City Knights... You could cut the air with a knife. If either army takes even one step forward, it could trigger a war. Chaldea, are you ready?"
Deep breaths for the moment as their faces is all that Romani needed to know, Olga not giving any further input, seeing it to be unnecessary and wanting everyone to do their best without any further distractions. The moment ahead was for the lot of them of them to deal with. In this moment, her and the rest of the Chaldean staff could only watch them move to clear this Singularity and face the biggest threat they'd come up against so far.
Everyone knew their roles. The main group would head towards the main gates with the infantry. Lancelot would head the army of knights, whilst Sanzang and Touta were riding in doubles. The former not allowed to ride by herself as Touta saw her practice being something out of nightmares. It'd give the opposition a morale boost.
"I haven't ridden on just tame horses," Sanzang mumbled while Touta refused to allow her anything but riding horseback together. A disciple has to worry about his mentor sometimes, too.
Lancelot took note of the formation. "It's a good thing that you took out Agravain soon. If he were still around, I can easily imagine our time would have been more problematic. There are less archers along the wall. That shall allow us a much easier way through. Ozymandias' beast shouldn't struggle as much."
"Even if there are archers, I can very well deal with them myself," Raikou told them, her bow already strung.
"I see... I shall trust that skill of yours, general of the East. If even Sir Tristan could not break through your skill, then I shall find no harm in us charging forward. Sir Bedivere, will you and your team move forward?"
Bedivere clutching his right arm, heart edging against his chest, nodding. "We do not know when King Hassan shall strike. Sir Gawain might come to face us at any time."
"Putting your faith in his word appears to be the only thing we can do," Martha commented.
Lancelot nodded. "Waiting till nightfall... is what I'd like to say. But we cannot afford to wait that long. The Lion King will have enacted his plan by this point."
"Then let's hurry up and bust her ass in already!" Yu complained, some sweat drops from how casual she was in her disrespect, as well as the fact they were dealing with a Divine Spirit who could probably terminate them all with her 'judgement'. Still, Yu had much greater things to worry about and what she cared about more was enough to drive her to speak such a bold claim.
Lancelot raised Arondight to the sky. "Now, if you will prepare the banner. We are now going to invade the Holy City. For all those that live in these lands! We shall terminate the Lion King! To arms, everyone! We must return the Holy Land to its rightful glory!"
"I'll be keeping low to the ground. I don't want to have to deal with Gawain charging at me like a rocket," Keiji notified the group of them.
Mash didn't need to but she pulled herself closer to her Master. Now that he needed it, but it was the instinct of being a Shielder and his First Servant that brought her directly. "Let's do this, senpai."
Before they could make a proper move further, nature twisted and joined them. "Looks like the support has finally come," Da Vinci said with a smirk.
"Look! There's a storm falling from the northern sky! As though it were swallowing the Holy City!"
"Senpai, am I seeing things? I thought I just saw a large skull in the sandstorm...?" Mash asked, even if she had a really great idea about what this was.
