The Dark Way of the Egoist: A Serial

Chapter 179: Dark: The Matou Shinji you know never existed from the beginning

Dak passed through the crowd and took a car to the Cathedral Church.

Although he could sense Barbatos's movements, Dak still felt no hurry. Barbatos's movements were completely in his sight, and it was still a long way from completion.

"Matou Shinji, is there anything going on today?" Kotomine Kirei had a stern face and really looked like a majestic priest.

"Well, Kirei, I just came here to have fun today.

Don't be so serious." Dak smiled and waved his hand. What he wanted to do today was to expose the truth behind this lie and completely crush Barbatos' heart.

"I see, Mr. Jiantong, do you need anything?

The only recent action of the Holy Church was the arrival of the Burial Organ Agent, Xiel, in Japan.

It should be to kill Luoya, the ancestor of the extra-official dead apostles.

There is nothing else to worry about." Kotomine Kirei thought for a moment. This is the only information worth paying attention to, right?

After all, this immortal man who transformed from a dead apostle back into a human being can be said to be a top-notch strong man even in the entire Holy Church.

A woman who could kill the founder of the Dead Apostles single-handedly.

As for other information... Kotomine Kirei felt that there was nothing important.

There are many anomalies happening in this world every moment, and it is impossible to care about things that are too far away.

"Yes, Not Bad.

This news is indeed very important." Dak nodded. Xiyeer was indeed a very strong woman.

As a result of the bug in Roja's reincarnation card, she not only possesses all the magic knowledge and abilities of Roja, a Grand Mage, but also has the ultimate immortality that even the Holy Church cannot kill her. As long as Roja is alive, she can be quickly resurrected even if she is killed endlessly for several years.

Her magic circuits... If the magic power of Rin Tousaka holding the jewel sword and Sakura Matou transformed into a black cup is one thousand, then Hiel's is five thousand, which is five hundred times the magic power of an ordinary magician.

Even Roja felt that it was abnormal and sighed that it was the highest quality body of a human magus. It was completely abnormal.

The two chatted like this, and Dark was about to leave - Barbatos's little trick was already half completed, and it would be bad luck if it failed after completion.

Dak came here just to let Barbatos feel what it means to be united, so that Barbatos would despair and give up resistance.

The supervisory Holy Church is in collusion with local magicians, so there is no need to rely on secular supervisors.

Kotomine Shirou: "Why is he here?"

They were baffled by what Dake had been doing during this period, so they could only ask him to help cover it up. But they didn't know how long they could keep the lid on.

Kotomine Kirei: "Who knows? But I always feel that Mr. Matou won't let us down, hehe, hahahahaha!"

He felt that Matou Zouken had been acting too abnormally recently, and that nothing good was going to happen, and that there would definitely be something fun to watch.

……

After leaving Fuyuki Church, Dark prepared to head to Mount Enzo.

The continuous blows to Barbatos's mind have almost completed the pre-processing of the material, and now what needs to be done is the final step.

"who are you?

Who are you?

You are not the Shinji I know!" Barbatos yelled, still asking questions, not wanting to accept this fact.

Is it a dream?
Just like a dream.

Get rid of it and wake me up from the nightmare.

Give me back my original beautiful dream!
Although he no longer had the power to interfere with Dark's body, Dark did not sever his sensory connection with Barbatos.

Barbatos can also see with his eyes and hear with his ears.

"What are you talking about?

Lord Barbatos.

I am Shinji Matou.

Oh... yeah, I forgot.

It's just that the Matou Shinji you know never existed from the beginning." Dark laughed jokingly.

There was no need to hide anymore, he had already taken over the control of Barbatos, now he could do whatever he wanted except preventing Barbatos from dying.

At this time, he had already arrived at Yuanzang Mountain.

"Impossible! Impossible!..."

Barbatos could do nothing but refuse to admit it.

With Dak's arrival, a portal opened at the bottom of Yuanzang Mountain. Dak stepped directly into it, and then the portal closed.

This is not a dark space, there are many light sources.

As his vision adjusted, Barbatos saw the situation clearly—the glowing mushroom eyes on the tunnel…

"How can it be!!!"

This feeling... this feeling... is it the same kind?

Is it... me?

Although the feelings were different, Barbatos could feel that the aura of these things was very similar to his own.

If these are me... then what am I?
These mushroom eyes of varying sizes were constantly blinking, and the surrounding passages occasionally squirmed like flesh and blood.

This place is like being inside the body of the Demon Pillar.

And Dark walked deep into the Great Holy Grail magic furnace inside Mount Yuanzang.

The actual grand ceremony covering the entire land of Japan has not yet been completed, but the core magic furnace has been completed.

The large cavity is filled with many pipes connected to the central core, which transport black liquid.

"Master!" Saya threw herself directly onto Dark. Now she was the only one here.

"Saya, don't be so excited." Dak rubbed Saya's head, then continued forward and walked to the core.

This is a huge capsule, and a human figure can be vaguely seen inside. I have to say that Barbatos is still very powerful. The technology of separating the good and evil of human spirit is something that Dark has never been able to do.

In the past, the Black Holy Grail used the "evil of this world" to absorb the evil that had already appeared in the world, but now it is like a network connected to everyone in Fuyuki, continuously extracting malice.

Everyone becomes a battery for the Black Grail.

"This device is the after-sales service agency that completes your dream, Lord Barbatos. The evil separated by you will be stored here." One of Dark's eyes turned into a mushroom eye, allowing Barbatos to see this "all the evil of mankind" up close.

"Lord Barbatos, you said it, right? For the sake of saving humanity, this is a subject rooted in the bloodline of the Matou family." Dark muttered, and Saya was silent at this time.

Through the reflection of the membrane in front of him, Barbatos also saw Dak's expression... a kind of mocking pity.

“Isn’t that right?

Ahhhhh!
This is the meaning of the existence of the Demon Pillar.

This is what we have to do, and this is not the way the world should be," Barbatos retorted.

Isn't the reason why the Demon Pillars do this because they are desperate about the ugliness of human beings?
Isn't it because he is angry at the king who clearly has the ability to change but does nothing?

“I’m the only one who needs help.

No one in this world deserves to be saved except me.

So until I am satisfied with this world, any other relief I seek is wrong.

Lord Barbatos." Dark said these extremely mean words with a grin.

Yes.

He only has eyes for himself.

Dak has always seen himself as just a human being.

Apart from oneself, everyone else is just a tool that can be toyed with and discarded.

He was absolutely sure of this.

Neither Saya nor the Black Holy Grail cared about Dark's declaration.

This world should exist for its master, including themselves - they are the extension of Dark's power.

Barbatos: I underestimated the limit of human desires. Humans are hopeless. The king's decision is right. Humans should be destroyed.

Barbatos finally gave up. This was no longer something he could control. It was too late.

Oh no.

Something has to get out.

What happens here must be spread.

We must inform our compatriots of everything that happens here!

The reason why Barbatos had been patient and willing to communicate with Dark was because of this, in order to activate the last bit of strength in his body to send out magic messages.

However... everything fell on deaf ears.

"Master Barbatos, don't you understand?
Why did I come here after you found something wrong?" Dark said: "The environment here is a body that simulates the structure of magic circuits, which is similar to the Temple of Time in your cognition.

Yes, it is completely isolated from the outside world.”

The Temple of Time is an inherent barrier made by Goetia after amplifying the remains of King Solomon. Its structure is similar to the Great Holy Grail of Yustisa in [FSN]. The Black Holy Grail is also a similar thing now, and the only difference may be the magic power level and ability development direction.

"..." Barbatos was completely silent. Looking at the overflowing black substance in front of him, he had a bad premonition and fell into complete despair.

Dak not only had control over the body, but also deprived it of any freedom. The power it had was just an illusion given to it by Dak. In fact, Dak was constantly taking away its existence.

After entering here and getting the bonus from the venue, Barbatos actually lost all his strength.

All that was left of it was the consciousness that Dark allowed to exist.

Only at this moment did it feel what true bottomless despair was.

"Please spare me and let me out!

Anything is fine. I can help you with anything you need. A living sacrifice that can replace my use is also acceptable. "Barbatos pleaded.

It has already vaguely guessed what Dark is going to use it for. These pipes connected to the "Source of Evil" are simulated demon pillars, and if there are real ones... they will definitely be better than fake ones, right?
"I can do anything as long as you don't let these things defile my body!" Barbatos pleaded again.

This is the only thing that is absolutely not allowed.

It is better to let something die than to be tainted by evil!

As long as he is not treated like this, it would be fine even if he is asked to abandon his great cause.

That kind of tragic ending... My whole body trembles just thinking about it.

“What are you talking about, Lord Barbatos.

Or... are you dissatisfied with me?" Dak looked at the palm of his hand, and a small, thin, and cute demon pillar appeared there - like a squid tentacles.

Everything of Barbatos had been completely taken away, and now this is all that remains of Barbatos.

"No! No!" Barbatos screamed as Dark's right hand approached the source of evil where the Black Holy Grail was located.

Fear! Fear! This fear is impossible to shake off.

Just getting close to it makes me feel spasms and twitches all over.

The Barbatos squid's tiny body twisted wildly.

And Dak was teasing it with great interest.

The right hand sometimes approaches and sometimes moves away from "all the evils of this moment".

Well, let’s talk and make a fuss.

Dak is back and has a normal job.
