Alright, so the main conflict of America is the President-King vs. Queen Medb. President-King Edison has an army of robots and has also recruited Helena Blavatsky (4* Loli Caster) and Karna to his side. Queen Medb has (likely with Solomon's assistance) summoned Fergus, Fionn MacCool, Diarmuid, and Beowulf. She also summoned Cu Chulainn Alter, who has the power of America's Holy Grail and is really pissed off. He also has access to Gae Bolg's true power, which literally rips apart his body. But since he knows Rune Magic, he constantly regenerates. The Celts are focused on the East Coast with their base of operations at Washington DC.
The player, henceforth known as Gudao, is part of Chaldea. This organization recuited Magi in order to prevent the apocalypse from happening (they built a supercomputer that can predict the future). To do this, they send their operatives into the detected time anomalies that signal the end of the world. Unfortunately, way back in the first chapter, every one of their operatives died in a massive explosion caused by a traitor and left only Gudao as the only Master. Anyways, this time the anomaly is in America. Gudao gets dropped into the time period but gets caught up in the crossfire between Edison's robots and Medb's Celt troops. He gets hit by artillery and gets wrecked.
Thankfully, as with the anomalies from before, Heroic Spirits who aren't trying to kill you have also been summoned. Nightingale finds you and treats you, but the wounds are severe and an amputation is required. Mashu (Shielder), pulls out a magic scroll created by Da Vinci (A servant summoned by Chaldea, she maintains the Mana Prism shop and is more or less base support) that manages to heal you up. Following this, you team up with Nightingale and spend the first portion of this chapter fighting off Edison's robots. You then run into Karna and Blavatsky, who strongarm you into seeing the President-King. They take you over to Edison's castle where he sics robots on you and even after you beat them up the party gets locked up in his dungeons. This is because he desires the Holy Grail, not to fix the time singularity, but to maintain his version of America with a robot army.
And that's where Geronimo comes in. He's been primarily concerned with the Americans who have been caught up in this mess or something. The magical Native American somehow infiltrated the castle and frees you guys. Since he's probably the most rational person around here, you decide to join up with him. The problem is, you need more strength since the other two sides are fielding tons of servants. After escaping the castle, Geronimo leads you to a frontier town where Robin Hood and Billy the Kid are pinned down by enemies. You save them and they join Team Geronimo. Seeking more help, Robin Hood begrudgingly tells you about Elizabeth Bathory (4* Idol Lancer) and Nero Bride (5* Waifu Saber). As I've mentioned before, Elizabeth arrived and wanted to start up Broadway early while Nero Bride wanted to start up Hollywood. You track down Nero Bride and she's engaged with Fergus because the Celts are huge assholes who want to kill everyone. The party kills Fergus and recruits Nero Bride and Elizabeth Bathory.
Forgot to mention, somewhere near the beginning Rama joined up with your group. IIRC, you save him from Fionn and Diarmuid. Up next is dealing with his problem: Beowulf has kidnapped his beloved Sita and has her locked up in Alcatraz and he needs your help. Your group travels over to the fort (located in California, iirc) and fight Beowulf. He retreats and you meet up with Sita. But then Rama collapses. As it turns out, Sita can't be with Rama because of the curse he had while he was alive (refer to source). So, she sacrifices herself so that Rama may live. Up next is dealing with the Celts once more. At a more established town, your group takes out Diarmuid and Fionn. You also encounter Cu Alter and Medb for the first time. Nero Bride has a reality marble and the group tries to ambush Medb by trapping her within Nero Bride's Aestus Domus Aurea. But Arjuna's with the Celts and engages Geronimo and Billy the Kid. The two American three stars get killed by the chuuni Archer, but sneaky Robin Hood manages to escape because Geronimo planned ahead. Nero Bride isn't as lucky and she gets killed by Cu Alter.
Some more shit happens and eventually you return to Edison's Castle. Likely because Karna's the only guy who can fight Arjuna toe-to-toe. You defeat Edison, Helena, and Karna all at once and then team-up with them. Partly because Nightingale verbally tears apart Edison. With their support, your party and Edison's Robot Army advances through the southern part of the United States. During a climatic battle, you take out the Celtic Army while Karna squares off against Arjuna. And then Cu Alter arrives to tear everyone a new asshole. He goes after your party, but surprisingly, Merlin shows up completely out of nowhere and blocks the attack. He vanishes afterwards though, and he's definitely not a Servant since he's still alive and not part of the Grail. Cu Alter then gets hit in the face by Karna's Vasvi Shakti but survives it because of his infinite prana reserves (America's Holy Grail) and Battle Continuation. Damaged, Cu Alter retreats. Karna, as expected, dies a heroic death and fades back into the Grail. Arjuna, decides to brood and asks you to kick his ass before he wanders off alone. You oblige. Had he decided to use Pashupata after Cu Alter got hit with VS, Cu would have died. As such, your group fends him off and continues advancing.
Oh, right. Scathach has been roaming around, I think this is the actual immortal Scathach. Li Shuwen also showed up earlier, but he wasn't affiliated with any side. Rather, he was just looking for a good fight and wanted to fight Scathach. You subdue him and Scathach takes an interest in him as a student. Anyways Scathach shows up and tries to take out Cu Alter, but he's too much for her and kills her (probably just forces her spirit back into the Shadow Lands or something or she fakes her death and runs).
You begin to advance once more and the group splits. Edison, Helena, Robin, and Liz all head to Illinois while you, Rama, and Nightingale continue pressing on towards DC. Edison's group runs into Beowulf but Li Shuwen pops up again and helps out by fighting him to a stand-still. Keep in mind, Li Shuwen fights Beowulf without using his spear. Though, this is justified as Beowulf's fighting style is specialized in combating giant monsters and isn't as refined for human opponents as Li's BAJIQUAN. Meanwhile, your group goes up against Cu Alter and Medb. You beat them back, and then Rama prepares to deliver the killing blow to Cu with his Brahmastra Noble Phantasm. Medb intercepts the attack and dies, and that's when shit hits the fan.
In Illinois, the sky is torn asunder and an army of demons shows up. Turns out, Medb called upon Clan Cailitin which here manifested as demons. And if you don't know what demons are like in the Nasuverse, they're more or less gigantic eldritch abominations. The group squares off against the army while your group faces off against Cu Alter, who is ridiculously tough. Like, the final location has three consecutive battles against him and his health increases with each battle. After his third defeat, Cu Alter goes into Final Boss Mode and another one of Solomon's Ars Goetia demons emerge from him. It's like Super Sentai/Power Rangers where the monster of the week grows and then gets wrecked by the mecha. Oh yeah, the Final Battle takes place at The White House.
At Illinois, they're getting fucked up pretty badly by the demons. Edison uses WFD but he's pretty worn out after saving Liz from a fatal attack. On his last legs, he prepares to use WFD one more time as a last stand but then someone arrives. NIKOLA FUCKING TESLA. The two of them have a history as you know, but Tesla shows up to lend a helping hand. Edison and Tesla use their Noble Phantasms, WFD and System Keraunos, simultaneously like some sort of tag-team attack. And then Arjuna redeems himself by showing up and sacrificing his life to fire off Pashupata which annihilates the demon army. At the same time, you defeat the Ars Goetia demon.
Anyways, after all is said and done, Nikola and Edison get into a slapfight. Still can't read Japanese, but I assume Tesla was either a) Being tsundere or b) talking about how he's the only one allowed to defeat Edison. Beowulf's content with the amount of violence he went through and fades away. The two groups meet up again and say their farewells as your allies fade back into the Grail. Interestingly, Li Shuwen wanders off somewhere and Scathach reappears (most likely back from the Shadow Lands). They engage in a sparring match or a fight.
Back at HQ, Mashu is relieved that everything worked out in the end and that they've now got their sixth Holy Grail. And then, blood starts dripping from underneath her hair. She collapses and you end the chapter by screaming out her name.
