Act 71: The Last Chase (Part II)
There are ten Holy Grail War processes, but these are only used as a transitional means to accomplish the ultimate goal.
It is essentially a huge ritual system planned by the Einzberen family, the Tosaka family, and the Maki family in order to reach the 'roots'.
In this scam, from a systemic point of view, the Masters who have been fished by the bait of the Holy Grail can grant wishes are nothing more than the support that the Servant needs, and they will be useless after the Servant summoning phase has passed.
All that is needed for the plan is the souls of the great men who have been resurrected as heroic spirits.
Infuse the souls of the dead Servants into the Little Grail, use the power of their return to the 'Throne of the Valhalla' located outside the world to pierce the world, and use the vast magic accumulated in the Great Holy Grail to secure the hole to create a door to the outside world.
However, in this huge scam, there are not a few people who are taken as victims.
They are all pursuing the Holy Grail that may be the fulfillment of all wishes, fighting, killing, plotting, constantly fighting, constantly giving, chasing that illusory dream.
Natsume hopes that it can really achieve everything, so that her life can be restarted......
But.
There should be a limit to self-deception.
All this is nothing more than the conspiracy of magicians who have been forgotten by the times.
In the past.
Yan Feng Qili said as he walked ahead.
"The last Holy Grail War, the information I got from my father, that is, the third Holy Grail War, the Holy Grail was distorted."
After the Third Holy Grail War there was a decisive and fundamental metamorphosis.
It's not that 'the rules have changed'. Rather, the Great Grail itself has been mutated, tainted, and completely distorted.
Weak and knocked down at the beginning of the war by the eighth rank of Avenger' from Angola. Angra Mainyu'.
Its soul is sucked into the Holy Grail according to the rules. Then the Holy Grail was contaminated.
Third Holy Grail War. The 'Void Match' ended without a winner because the Little Chalice was destroyed during the battle, but the result of the 'Tainted Grail' continued to have an impact on the next war after the tournament.
The Holy Grail, which is regarded as a universal instrument that will fulfill the wishes of the victors, is still alive even after being polluted.
However, the way to achieve this is to be accompanied by endless 'malice', that is, 'wanton distortion of wishes'.
Ironically, it was the malice of the humans who produced the source of the pollution, Manuel, that made this holy grail like that.
To be clear, the Holy Grail does grant wishes. However, it will be done on the 'malicious' side.
If you want to do well in your class, you might want to do so by 'killing everyone but yourself'.
Distorted wishes, trampled dreams, will collapse in an instant.
So, do you know why I have such a peaceful conversation with you?
This sentence made Natsume take action, he directly raised his arms, and took out the pistol with the origin bullet from his arms, and faced the back of the heart of Yanfeng Qili from behind.
"Ah, I know that."
Natsume knew what Yanfeng Qili wanted to say.
The Templar Church, as the overseer, must have found something abnormal in this war.
That is. It's not impossible for Heroic Spirits to summon Heroic Spirits.
If you want to make this matter simpler, ignore the distortions and resistance of the Holy Grail. Just one sentence.
Yan Feng Qili had an extremely sarcastic smile on his face, as if he had seen a desperate poor person, and looked at Natsume with pity and mockery.
"In terms of results, you want ......"
"What nonsense!"
Natsume interrupted Yan Feng Qili's words.
"Even if my identity is already known, it has nothing to do with you, the king who once won all the treasures is your ally, and you have been deprived of the Master qualification and regained the 'summoning' of the Holy Grail, all this, what's going on?"
A person who has no aspirations, a person who has no aspirations, is it a desire somewhere in his heart that makes him appear here, or is it to appear here in order to find desire, and his actions are just to see himself and then kill himself?
Orβ
and become allies with yourself.
Natsume thinks that the last one is somewhat exaggerated, but it is not impossible, and now that the true identity has been figured out, everything seems illusory.
What is the truth? What exactly is falsehood? From the moment Natsume came to this world, it was very ambiguous.
The king of heroes set foot on the earth only for what originally 'belonged' to himself;
The conquering king descended here, leading his long-time companions and new subjects to their ends;
The Knight King made a pact to win in this world and reverse the past.
The ancient kings, the heroes of the past, with each other's tragic circumstances, constitute the huge stage of Fuyuki City.
Whether it's a battle or a game, it's just a show for the higher-ups.
Does the reason for waving the weapon in your hand really exist?
"I'm just a person buried in a torrent, what is it that I want? Even killing people doesn't count as my pleasure, it's so boring. β
"So what do you want to do? What do you want if you can't ask for something? β
"No, the sixth step of the 'Holy Grail War' will summon the Servant, and after the summoning is successful, the Heroic Spirit will appear in the form of the Servant. At this point, you will be assigned to one of the 7 ranks. As a general rule, there is one Servant for each rank. The rank to which class they are assigned to is determined by the characteristics of the Heroic Spirit as the archetype. The ninth step is to recover the soul of the Servant, and the soul of the Servant who cannot survive after being defeated or losing the Master will be recovered by the Little Chalice and held until the end of the war. β
The souls of the Servant collected will complete important tasks in the final stage of the ritual performed by the Great Grail.
That's the end of being a Servant.
So.
"What if it were you?" Slave Angola. Angra Mainyu has absorbed the evils of the world, but you have released all the malice that has been released, and I am looking forward to what the next action will become. β
"Shut up."
"Not human, not magician, not of this world."
"Shut up."
"The one who appeared here, the one who took the shell of others, is the one."
Yan Feng Qili smiled at Natsume.
"Since the last Honkai, the surrogate of the Holy Grail." (To be continued......)
