Chapter 191 The Soul Holding the Heavenly Cup
“Ping!”
The back of the sword hit Miyu hard like a baseball bat. The girl didn’t say a word and fainted as soon as she closed her eyes.
“It’s over!” He grabbed the Berserker class card that popped out of Miyu. At the same time, Assassin took all the other class cards tied to her legs and handed them to Saber.
“Huh…did we catch up?” Altria breathed a sigh of relief, her arms trembling slightly.
In order to end the battle as quickly as possible, she had to fight Miyu who had transformed into a Berserker, sword against sword. In front of the huge axe and sword, even Saber was uncomfortable.
“As expected of the great hero Hercules…No, now is not the time to sigh.” Saber shook her head and looked in the direction of the fierce battle between Shuoyue and Wuming, but the existence of the Golden Theater blocked her vision, “We have to go to support quickly, Assassin…Assassin?!”
Beside her, Baimao suddenly squatted on the ground in pain, the submachine gun fell, and a thick black gas suddenly emerged from her body.
"This is... How is it possible! Why are you contaminated by the black mud?!"
Altria, who almost turned into an Alter, recognized the abnormality of the Hundred Faces at a glance and said in astonishment.
At this moment, accompanied by the sound of glass breaking, the Golden Theater gradually disappeared, revealing the four figures inside.
Wuming and Shuoyue stood still, all the evils of this world maintained the piercing posture, and... Assassin appeared in front of Shuoyue and blocked the fatal blow with his body.
"Boom!" The third method, which was released in anger, blasted away 'all the evils of this world'. Shuoyue stopped and looked at the assassin standing in front of him with a complicated expression.
"Hundred Faces..."
Unlike Saber who was poured with black mud, Assassin was pierced through the heart by the black mud instead of him, touching the soul core - it was an erosion from the inside out, even if Shuoyue could suppress it with the third method, it could not be eradicated.
"Don't be sad about this, Master." The hood fell off, and the purple-haired Baimao's mouth was bleeding. He looked at Shuoyue with a soft look in his eyes, "Death is the fate of us assassins. We will eventually return to the wings of the first generation."
In a trance, the bell of death rang, and Baimao knelt on one knee, just like when she first swore allegiance, bowing to the master (Master) she recognized from the bottom of her heart.
"Please send me to the first generation, my master... Although I don't know if he still agrees to accept me, an unworthy descendant."
The Baimao, who has split into dozens of incarnations with the treasure, cannot be killed by simple means. Once other Baimao slip through the net, they will start indiscriminate killing because of the black mud.
For this, the Command Seal is needed.
"——Command with the Command Seal." Shuoyue raised his arm slowly and firmly.
"Goodbye, Assassin."
"Thank you, my Lord."
Accepting the last order with his own will, the assassin in black robes ended his life neatly wherever he was, and the purple-haired Baimao also destroyed his soul core, turned into a soul and disappeared in front of Shuoyue.
Servant Assassin left the stage at Liudong Temple.
Her soul merged into the Holy Grail, making the magic contained in the golden cup even more powerful. If it weren't for Wuming and Shuoyue's continuous suppression, it would have opened the hole leading to the root long ago.
"Are you aiding the enemy?" Wuming raised his eyebrows, indicating that the Holy Grail was in his hand. "You lost Assassin, and strengthened the small Holy Grail in my hand-are you going to surrender?"
"Surrender?" Even though his body was already tattered, Shuoyue still had a mocking smile on his face, "To be honest, when you took Miyu away with 'Heavenly Voice Assimilation', I was panicked-"
The replacement magic was performed, dragging everyone present into another area. Although it was in a deep and large void, the ground veins that appeared due to the fullness of magic power illuminated this place with bright lights.
This is the interior of Yuanzang Mountain, where the Great Holy Grail is located.
"It's not because Miyu was taken away that I panicked, but because of another crucial reason."
After forcibly dragging the enemy to transfer, especially after Wuming still had the Holy Grail in his hand, which contained a powerful and mysterious object, the third puppet could not continue, and began to break inch by inch from the arm.
This is the last puppet. After losing it, Shuoyue no longer has anyone to rely on.
Even so, the young man still calmly narrated:
"I am a magician who has practiced the third law, inherited the memory fragments of the winter saint Yustiza, and also captured the Matou family. I have read all the records of Machiri Zorgen so far. Now, I have mastered the rules and operation methods of the entire Holy Grail system.
The white hair dissipated, and half of the body was blown away by the wind.
"This is why I put the battlefield here, Wuming-I who mastered the third law-soul materialization, am the real Holy Grail user!"
As the voice fell, the last body of Shuoyue completely collapsed, and his soul lost its home.
Really, is this true?
Suddenly, the class cards taken from Miyu suddenly soared into the air. Rider, lancer, caster, assassin, Berserker, a full five class cards were spinning in the air, exuding a mysterious atmosphere.
"Class card... What do you want to do, Shuoyue?" Wuming looked up at the class cards and frowned.
"Hah!" The Sword of Promised Victory wrapped in starlight slashed down. Although Wuming was caught off guard, he still dodged the slash of the holy sword by a narrow margin and turned his head to look at the sword holder.
"Now, Saber!"
"What--!"
Wuming was stunned, and then he felt a sharp pain in his left hand, and the small holy grail he was holding fell out and fell into the hands of the Knight King!
"Well done, Miyu!" After getting the holy grail, Saber retreated quickly and joined the girl who was also holding the holy sword and dressed as a swordsman.
"So there's another class card in your hand, Miyu Edelfeldt." Wuming covered his injured left hand and looked at the angry girl, "I didn't expect you to wake up so quickly, and disguised yourself as Saber to attract my attention, well done."
"I don't need your praise!" After the 'Heavenly Voice Assimilation' was lifted, Miyu had understood the cause and effect, so she was full of hostility towards this man.
"Calm down, Miyu." Saber reminded, "Sakugetsu is still waiting for us."
"...You're right." Miyu took a deep breath, lifted the dream summon, and threw the class card printed with Saber (Swordsman) into the sky. The seven class cards were completely gathered, and then suddenly burned with a blue flame!
"This is... a spirit aura similar to that after the servants dissipate!" Wuming instantly realized Shuoyue's purpose, "You actually want to use them to replace the souls of the servants, Shuoyue!"
So far, Saber and Caster have not died, but the souls of the two servants have been replaced by Shuoyue with six class cards, which also means that the Holy Grail has gathered the weight of seven servants, and the small Holy Grail is completely full, meeting the conditions for the activation of the Great Holy Grail!
"That's right, Wuming! This is my home ground!"
The platinum light, like the salvation and hope that people pray for, illuminates the dim big hole.
It is the light that guides the possibilities of the future, and it is the light that can touch the end of the soul with both hands.
The long-cherished wish and pursuit of the Einzbern family for a hundred years have taken shape here. Although the beautiful flowers have not been seen yet, the seeds of life have sprouted.
The small Holy Grail in Saber's hand floated up by itself, and was held in the hands of a figure shrouded in hazy light. At the same time, a golden color suddenly emerged on the ground.
This is where the Winter Saint dedicated herself, and the human universe that decomposed her magic circuits and replaced them by magic is the Great Holy Grail.
Under the call of the same source of magic, the Great Holy Grail accepted the existence of the young man and obeyed his instructions.
The golden light rose from the bottom to the top like a fluid, gathered on the figure, and woven a "heavenly clothing" embroidered with gold patterns, white as snow, and looked gorgeous and noble.
With almost endless magic power infused, the young man with white hair and golden eyes wore the heavenly clothing, embraced the Great Holy Grail, and appeared in front of everyone with a brand new attitude.
"Even if I lose my body, I can still defeat you with the soul posture with the existence of the third law, Wuming!"
"Brother..." Miyu looked up and stared at the god-like Shuoyue in a trance, "So handsome..."
Saber on the side remained silent. Although she still maintained the reservedness of a king, in fact, she was indeed deeply amazed by Shuoyue's posture.
It was not just a change in appearance. After combining with the Holy Grail, Shuoyue's essence had transcended humans and became a more complete inhuman being.
Although it was only temporary, it was shocking enough.
"The Third Law, Heaven's Grail?" Wuming looked up and looked at Shuoyue, whose strength was even greater than before. "That's right. After all, the 'evil of this world' has left. The black mud in the Holy Grail can be purified. The Third Law... Hum."
A complex look flashed in his eyes.
If he had mastered this magic at the beginning...
When Wuming fell into reminiscence, Shuoyue did not attack him, but embraced the Holy Grail and cast a cold glance at the 'all evil of this world' who was huddled aside.
"First, purify you, the scum."
Shuoyue remembered the hatred of Assassin's sacrifice caused by his sneak attack.
The platinum light reappeared. This time, 'all the evil of this world' had no chance of survival. He, who had only robbed a head from the beginning to the end, was completely purified by the Third Law and completely dissipated in this world.
The combination of the Great Holy Grail that has absorbed the magic power of the earth veins for sixty years and the magician who has mastered the third law, I am afraid that everyone will tremble.
But Wuming is not among them.
"Do you think you are the only one who has the bonus of the ceremonial dress?" Looking at the aggressive Shuoyue, Wuming raised his lightning-shaped eyebrows and said with a smile, "At this point, you should have guessed my origins, right? Then, guess again-have I experienced the battle on the back of the moon?"
"BeastⅢ/R, Sesshōin Kiara... In other words!" Shuoyue suddenly realized something, suddenly raised the small holy grail, and created a passage to the inside of the Great Holy Grail in mid-air!
At the same time, the moon-colored spear in Wuming's hand disintegrated and gradually transformed into black and gold armor. The mythical ceremonial dress that once defeated human evil covered him again, but before the power was completely released, the young man wearing the clothes of heaven appeared behind Wuming and kicked him into the hole.
"If you want to fight, go in and fight, Wuming!"
"Wait for me, brother!"
"Miyu! That's not where servants can enter!" Saber wanted to stop him, but it was too late. She could only watch the jade-colored girl follow closely behind, entering the depths of the Holy Grail with Shuoyue and Wuming.
"... You must come back safely, Shuoyue, Miyu." Saber murmured as she watched the hole that was about to disappear.
However, she did not notice that where 'all the evil in this world' dissipated, a black shadow emerged, and also entered the slowly closing passage and disappeared.
TIP: A total of more than 6,000 words, equivalent to two chapters of the previous three chapters, can be regarded as an additional update and compensation in response to the request of book friends!
Heaven's Cloth: Since it is a costume used to control the Greater Holy Grail, the person who appears as the holder of the Holy Grail will naturally wear this costume (it is not a transformation CG like a magical girl!)
Mythical Costume: In the later part of "Fate/EXTRA CCC", in order to obtain the same level of combat power as BB, who became the Mooncell system itself, the most primitive power as a Heroic Spirit was obtained by infiltrating Archer's Heroic Spirit Core, which is the Mythical Costume.
