A Dimensional Journey Begins with the Dragon Clan
Chapter 1199 Chapter 1192 Cup of Heaven

Fuyuki Civic Hall——
This facility, which cost a total of 8 billion yen, is a building that is said to be a symbol of Fuyuki's new city development along with the station center building plan. It covers an area of 6,600 square meters and has a construction area of 4,700 square meters. It is a mixed structure with four floors above ground and one underground floor. The two-story music hall can accommodate more than 3,000 people. The new design by famous architects makes this modern public hall as majestic as an ancient temple. From this, you can see Fuyuki City's ambition to develop a new city.
However, only the exterior has been completed, and the interior is currently being renovated for the inauguration ceremony. However, the actual use is further away. In addition to the minimum safety measures, not even power supply equipment was installed. Late at night when there were no staff, this clean and magnificent building became a space filled with deserted silence and a strange sense of unreality.
Of course, magic was not factored into the city's architectural plans. The construction site of the Citizen's Hall was chosen on Fuyuki's latest spiritual vein, which was completely accidental - to put it another way, this rare coincidence was also due to the specificity of the spiritual vein in this place.
Kotomine Kirei stood on the roof, looking calmly at the way the magic signal he fired was scattering smoke in the night wind. To invade this unguarded building, all it takes is to break the lock. The preparations for the ceremony and the preparations for the attack are already in place. Next, just wait for the remaining enemies attracted by the signal.
The battle was approaching, but he remained calm. For the agent, there is no need to get excited about the anticipation of bloodshed or to joke to relieve tension. They are completely qualified as tools of God's will, and they go to their deaths with only the normal heart of completing their tasks. This long-term study has enabled Kirei to show the calmness and indifference of a clinician.
but--
"Hmph, you still have such a cold face tonight, Kirei."
Archer, who walked up to the roof with slow steps, teased, and Kirei smiled bitterly inwardly.
What does this expressionless face look like to a heroic spirit who sees everything? Even the emotional ups and downs that even oneself cannot detect cannot escape the eyes of the heroic spirit.
Although he was shaken at first, Kirei is now used to it. Really, it turns out that he is so cold - he just understands himself as he treats other people's affairs.
The King of Heroes, who had just returned from the night market, was still wearing luxurious and frivolous casual clothes. There was an aftertaste of enjoyment in his crimson eyes, and there was no sense of urgency as the battle was approaching. However, for this heroic spirit, appearance and heart are impossible to separate. The decisive battle surrounding the Holy Grail seemed to him like a play.
"What do you want me to do next, Kirei? Just wait here?"
A single instruction may cause Archer to question the Master's qualifications. Kirei, who clearly knew this, shook his head after thinking for a while.
"If you release your power near the Holy Grail, the ritual will be in danger. If you want to have a good time, take the initiative to fight against it."
"Well, okay. But if this place gets attacked while I'm away, how are you going to respond?"
"Let Berserker hold the enemy back, and I'll take the opportunity to summon you back. At that time, I'll have to use the power of the command spell. You won't mind, right?"
"That's right, but I can't guarantee the safety of the Holy Grail. I won't be merciful tonight. This narrow little house may be completely destroyed."
"That's the worst ending, but that's also fate."
Kirei nodded curtly, but Archer narrowed his eyes.
"Kirei, it seems that you understand the meaning of war, but do you still have no desire to place your hope on the Holy Grail? Even if you get a miracle, you have no hope?"
"Yes, so what?"
"Although it's not finished yet, the 'vessel' is already in your hands. Now, maybe you can accept your long-cherished 'pre-appointment'."
"...Hmm, I see. You mean, if possible, a miracle should happen immediately when the Holy Grail descends, right?"
Kirei sighed without interest and thought for a while. In the end, he still shook his head.
"I still haven't thought about my wish. If I have to say it - I hope that no unrelated people will cause trouble in the final battle. Unfortunately, there are residents nearby. If possible, I would like to win happily in a place where no one is around. ”
Upon hearing this completely boring answer, Gilgamesh said disdainfully.
"Alas, what you hide in your heart can only be inferred from the vicinity of the Holy Grail."
As a result, although these two people were closer to the Holy Grail than anyone else, they cared less about it than anyone else. It makes more sense to them to expel the people who gathered for it than to obtain the Holy Grail.
"——Ah, also, if Saber shows up before I come back."
Before leaving, the King of Heroes stopped unexpectedly.
"When the time comes, let Berserker play with her for the time being. The reason why I left that mad dog alive is for this time."
"clear."
Kirei still hasn't figured out why Archer is obsessed with Saber. However, as for this Berserker who clamored to destroy the King of Heroes due to the fate of the first battle, after learning his real name through the investigation of Matou Kariya, the King of Heroes instead allowed his existence and said, "Let that dog go." It's fun to bite Saber." As long as he encounters something related to her, the King of Heroes can control his anger. It seems that Gilgamesh is very concerned about the King of Knights.
"Speaking of which, Kirei. What happened to the doll that Saber risked her life to protect? I heard that something called the Holy Grail is inside it."
"Ah, you mean that."
Regarding its existence, Kirei did not want to mention it. Now, he has no interest in it, and there is no need to even think of that woman's name.
"I just killed her. There is no reason to let her continue to live."
···········
Irisviel opened her eyes and looked around.
It feels very strange now. The consciousness is infinitely vivid, but it is impossible to think clearly.
It seems that what is muddy and meaningless is not her own spirit, but the world in which she lives.
Many scenes flew past her eyes. Looking at these sights, one can only feel a sense of unnecessary and unbearable sadness and emptiness.
All the scenes reflected in his eyes had nothing to do with joy and happiness. What is common at this point is a kaleidoscope of chaotic scenes.
There is pain, humiliation, regretful resentment and lack.
Bloodshed and scorched earth, betrayal and revenge, all efforts but nothing, this is a costly chain of futility.
The familiar snow scene repeats itself over and over again.
It tells the story of a family that sealed everything they had in the city of severe winter.
At this point, she finally remembered—what she was overlooking was the Einzbern family's two-thousand-year journey to search for the Holy Grail.
Originally by Stesser. And the female dolls created based on her...artificial beings, false lives.
Humanoid consumables created by the secrets of alchemy and used to realize long-cherished wishes that are far away.
Using their blood and tears as ink, their cracked bones and frozen fingertips as pens, they write the frustrated and lost history of the Einzbern clan. Their sighs and despair made Irisviel's heart tighten. If there is a place where these scenes can be seen, it must be at the center of all strife, witnessing the interior of everything.
Irisviel finally understood. I am now looking inside the Holy Grail.
Embracing the original Yustesa, the Great Holy Grail of Mount Enzo. And all androids are standard products created based on her as the "Winter Saint". Therefore, they share the same pain.
——No, is that really the case?
"Why are you crying, Mother?"
When she came to her senses, Irisviel found herself in the child's room, protected by the warmth of the furnace.
There is cold wind and snow outside the window. The strong wind howled by, and the young hands clung to their mother's arms for protection.
"Mother, I had a nightmare. Ilia turned into a wine glass."
Despite her inner fear, Ilia's red eyes looked at her with trust. Although he has the same face as his mother and other sisters, this child is special and more lovable than anyone else——
"There are seven big pieces in Ilia's heart. When Ilia felt like it was going to burst and was very scared but couldn't escape, she heard the voice of Yustessadar and the big black hole above her head..."
Irisviel hugged her daughter tightly, her silver-white bangs wiping her daughter's face that was wet with tears.
"It's okay, it's okay... That won't happen. You won't see that, Ilia."
Among the many sisters, only Irisviel has a tragic wish that cannot be shared with others - the love of being a "mother".
Among all the artificial beings in the past, as the first person to give birth to an heir from her own womb, she was the only one of her kind who was endowed with the heart of loving her son. And the fate she carries is also sighing.
Illyasviel von Einzbern, who is the next Holy Grail, is also a part of the gear that has been involved in two thousand years of delusion and obsession.
This yoke will never end. Before someone wins.
The third magic, the Cup of Heaven - this achievement is the only salvation.
Many voices rushed towards Irisviel. She was singing with countless sisters.
Holy Grail——
Please give me the Holy Grail -
Deep in the forest, there is an abandoned site of used artificial humans. The mountains of corpses of our compatriots chanted. The rotten face covered with maggots overlapped with the face of young Ilya, making a painful sound.
"It's fine--"
The mother held her daughter tightly in her arms full of love.
"Ilia, you will definitely be liberated from the shackles of fate. I will complete everything, and your father will definitely realize this wish..."
At this moment, a question suddenly flashed in her mind.
If this is the dream displayed by the Holy Grail - since the internal "vessel" can be seen so clearly taking shape - what does the outer shell of oneself look like?
This is like seeing the internal organs of a chick through an egg shell.
If so, this is a huge contradiction. When the chicks hatch, the shell should break.
So - who was the person I dreamed about just now?
The touch of Illyasviel's slender body felt so real as she hugged her tightly. She looked towards her hands holding her daughter.
Irisviel has disappeared. If a chick pecks away the broken eggshell...
Suddenly, the flying snow outside the window stopped. Mixed into the darkness of the night was thick swirling black mud.
She was neither scared nor surprised, just calmly understanding and watching all this, as the mud seeped in from all sides of the room, dripped from the chimney, and slowly soaked under her feet.
By the way, trivial questions about who you are.
From now on, she is no one. Even now, he is still just "someone" using the personality of the disappeared woman Irisviel as a mask.
Even so, the "Irisviel's wish" hidden in her heart is real. The mother who thought about her beloved daughter until the last moment and passed away lamenting her daughter's future has inherited her wishes.
She is the one whose wish must come true.
It is an existence that is expected, set up and enshrined in order to fulfill everyone's wishes.
"——It's okay, Illyasviel, everything will be over soon."
She whispered gently into the ear of the young girl she was hugging for the first time.
"So, let's just wait here for a while. Father will definitely come. Come and help us realize all our wishes."
The hot mud clinging to her body elegantly dyed her skirt black.
Waiting for the moment when her wish comes true, the woman wrapped in darkness smiles.
Get rid of all sighs, get rid of all worries.
Soon, she will gain the ability to grant wishes. As a universal wish machine that makes everything come true.

The sleeping streets were even quieter than usual. Perhaps out of fear of the frequent weird incidents, people who are accustomed to nocturnal activities have also heeded the authorities' advice not to go out at night and stayed home honestly these days. Not even a car could be seen on the street, only the asphalt road surface was pale in the cold winter night and illuminated by street lights.
The deserted streets give the illusion of being in a scaled toy scene. If places beyond ordinary people's understanding are called "other worlds", this is undoubtedly the case in Fuyuki City at night.
A horse moved through the unusual scenery as if no one else was watching. Weber was riding on that leaping back, galloping towards death. Behind him is the broad and thick mind of the conquering king, and the distance is so close that he can almost feel the high-pitched agitation.
If he could survive tonight, Weber would never forget this tense and peaceful sense of excitement in his life. There are moments in the world called "real times." That is the moment that liberates the soul from all deception and whitewashing, calmly accepts the whole world, and is in awe of it. And that's exactly what Weber is now. There is no need to explore the various mysteries and contradictions in the world, just accept them calmly. The meaning of life and death can be understood clearly without the need for words to describe it. It was a time of supreme happiness, liberated from all the confusion and confusion of a miserable life. (End of chapter)
