——Vritra
It is an existence that magicians call "the true evil dragon", "the true snake god", "the eternal devil", and "the embodiment of obstacles that block the reach of human wisdom".

The highest god

The highest dragon species

He is also the most powerful enemy.

She possesses the characteristics of the highest-level Earth Mother Goddess, but she is not an Earth Mother Goddess.

She is——'The Weir Dragon Vritra'

Because he is often regarded as the equivalent of the Dragon Demon Azi Dahaka, Shirou has heard of this name more than once so far, although he has never actually seen it.

Although often regarded as peers.

But Vritra and Azdahaka are actually two completely different beings.

It's just that they are often considered to be the same entity.

The moment Vritra entered her body, she immediately stuffed the contents of the 'self-introduction' into Shirou's mind.

Azidahaka was born from the human race and manifested under the influence of natural phenomena.

Vritra appeared in the world because of the influence of human activities on the abstract concept of nature.

The meaning of 'Weir Dragon' is 'the dragon that blocks the world'.

But the blockade here does not simply mean literal meaning - it does not simply mean "building a cage and locking it up".

But it has a more abstract and conceptual meaning.

The continuous development of an intelligent civilization is not infinite. The development of civilization will inevitably reach a "boundary" that cannot be crossed.

This boundary compresses and disciplines the living area, living way, and living value of intellectual life within a certain range.

This is the 'border'.

Because the rules of this world - the universe itself - exclude the existence of "civilization".

A stable and peaceful group society formed by a large number of weak individuals - "civilization", the so-called "order" in human mouth

From the perspective of the universe, it is a manifestation of "chaos", "error" and "collapse of order".

The endless killing, devouring, and evolution between life and life eventually gave birth to a single ultimate life form - this is the 'order' of the universe.

In the short term, the concept of a weak society can be formed, but it is only allowed to the extent of an "ethnic group". When the ethnic group develops to a certain extent, "boundaries" will appear, and through blockades and restrictions, the ethnic groups will be forced to fight and devour each other, and eventually compete to become the "strongest entity" of the ethnic group.

Then the strongest individual left in the group will be released from the cage and fight again with the strongest individuals from other cages.

This cycle continues until the final ultimate life looks down on everything and tastes the strongest loneliness - and then, even this loneliness is defeated and overcome.

From the perspective of the macrocosm, these fighting cages are the embodiment of the cosmic order of the Type-Moon world.

The meaning of the Weir Dragon is the embodiment of the rules for enforcing this order.

She is the executor of cosmic order and also the obstructor (obstacle) of intellectual civilization.

"Shirou, let me tell you what the most important difference is between me as Vritra's concubine and Azidahaka as the dragon demon."

Vritra appeared beside Shirou in a female form, dressed like a cool Persian dancer. She touched Shirou's lips intimately and seductively, and her sharp nails scratched the corner of Shirou's mouth:

"Azdahaka hates the existence of humans, hates creatures called humans, hates 'humans as a group', but she also loves certain 'human individuals' who suit her preferences."

"But I'm different. What I love is the existence of 'humanity' as a collective. Although I don't hate any 'individual human being', I love all individual humans equally - so it seems that I am indifferent to individual humans, or even cruel, right?"

Vritra smiled:

"I am the Trial Master. Although Azidahaka has the same hobbies as me, he is imitating me in form.

As my descendant, Azidahaka hates humans as a group, but loves some special individuals. When imposing trials, he teaches students according to their aptitude like a teacher. Azidahaka's trials are essentially "cultivating opponents who can fight with you", that is, a "trial for the purpose of teaching."

"What about you?" Shirou asked.

"I am different from my juniors. I am not a human being, so I don't consider so many delicate and gentle things."

Vritra used Shirou's blood from his fingertips and smeared it on his lips like rouge:
"No matter good or evil, right or wrong, strong or weak, I will give everyone a trial that is 'certainly fatal' and 'absolutely impossible to complete', equally and out of interest."

Originally hiding in silence nearby, feeling it was not her place to interrupt and planning to wait and see what happened, Toosaka Rin couldn't help but let out an "Ah?" when she heard this.

【此时的远坂凛，在试炼主弗栗多眼中的‘评价（态度）’是：1D40+60=38+60=98（？）】

Vritra's figure flashed, and this time he stuck close to Toosaka Rin, who was about twenty years old, the same build as Shirou. He used the same trick again and painted the other half of his lips with Toosaka Rin's blood.

Like enjoying some kind of pleasure.

Vritra smiled and said, "With your wisdom, it shouldn't be difficult to guess."

[What is the purpose of Vritra's "Trial"? 】

[Difficulty of guessing for Shirou: 80]

[Shirou's 'Inspiration (Knowledge)': 1D100=83]

[Difficulty of guessing for Toosaka Rin: 50]

[Tousaka Rin's 'Inspiration (Knowledge)': 1D100=60]

——Shirou and Rin both guessed the correct answer!
The two of them said at the same time, Vritra's 'purpose of the trial': "Survival."

Vritra's eyes narrowed in delight.

"exactly!"

This is the overwhelming difference between these two 'relatives', Vritra and Azidahaka.

The Trial of Azdahaka is essentially a teaching exercise, designed to train an opponent who can fight the final battle with him.

The purpose of Vritra's trial is the trial itself - those who fail the trial will be reduced to ashes, and after their existence is annihilated, everything will be meaningless.

"I am the 'boundary' of civilization, the embodiment of the 'obstacle' to the development of civilization!"

"If you fail to pass this test of mine, then everything will be reduced to ashes, and everything will lose its meaning. So only after passing it, only after successfully 'surviving', will the meaning emerge in the future!"

"Only after crossing the boundary of my body can I survive, only then can civilization continue to exist, only then can I - 'open up a path to the future'!"

Toosaka Rin vaguely realized that the so-called "Grand Lancer" that she and others summoned this time, who was intended to be a beast of disaster, might actually be more dangerous than the evil god.

"but"

Vritra suddenly changed the subject:
"I have been summoned by you this time, which means that I have a bond with you. When the end comes in the future, perhaps we will have a pleasant fight to the death, right?
But at least this time, I am here to help you with the difficulties you are facing now. The fact that I am using the Heroic Spirit System to manifest into the world is a self-deprecating compromise for me. It feels like "I am here to have some fun."

Want to play?
Well, maybe the great disaster that Shirou and others faced was indeed just an event of this level for Vritra's true self.

Toosaka Rin was about to ask Vritra how he could help her and the others——

Shirou asked a somewhat abrupt question: "You said that you love the collective existence of mankind, but you treat each individual human being equally and do not favor any one side. Why are you so nice to me and Rin?"

Vritra tilted his head. "Oh - I see, Shirou, you can 'see' it, right? Yes, you two are special to me, because although you are human now, you both have similarities with my form of existence.

In my eyes, you are like the children of very distant younger relatives with no blood relationship. Is this how it feels to describe it in human terms?

Personally, I feel that I am more like your grandmother than your mother.
like.

Yes! That's right!
Of course I like Shirou and Rin! If I didn't like them, there would be no way they would have summoned me as a Servant and signed a contract with me - even a temporary contract like this one for the purpose of saving the world!"

Toosaka Rin was stunned when she heard this.

Shirou asked realistically, "What good will this do for us?"

"Of course! After all, I like you guys very much!" Vritra smiled even more, "So you can look forward to more encounters (trials) with me in the future!"

Shirou and Rin: "." Isn't this totally useless?!

Fortunately, Vritra added: "The probability of you summoning me as a Servant will also increase - although at most my spiritual base is at the level of a high-level god, I am still very strong as a Servant.

Although I am here at most a being called Vritra, who was knocked down by humans and gained a "small part of personality-like functions".

But as long as you can control me, I don't mind fighting as your strength.

After all, I like Shirou and Rin very much!"

I always feel like there are too many things to complain about, but I don’t know where to start!
But no matter what, as Shirou obtained Vritra's 'spiritual base of a mere upper god level', Susanoo, which had originally begun to melt due to the premature evil dragon as the base and the excessive amount of things stuffed into it, was able to stabilize.

This body can bear the burden of the 'Halo of Domination'!
Next is——

"Do you know how to use the 'Conqueror's Light Wheel'? How to use it efficiently?" Shirou asked immediately.

"Shh!"

Vritra put his index finger on Shirou's lips and interrupted him:
"Shirou, do you remember what I just said?
Azidahaka's trials are different from mine. The fundamental purpose of his trials is not to make things difficult for the sake of making things difficult for others. It is not a 'survival test', but for - 'growth'. "

Vritra raised his head and looked up at the scarlet blood cocoon that the evil god had transformed into in the sky.

"Those who can pass the Azidahaka Trial - even if they are temporarily trapped, they will eventually achieve 'growth'!"

——The time of both parties is synchronized.

While Shirou successfully summoned Vritra, the "confrontation (trial)" between the false Angramainu - the evil god and Azidahaka. Has the result been announced?

☆

Go back in time a little bit.

While Shirou's temporary rescue team activated the 'Grand Heroic Spirit Summoning Technique'.

What is the 'trial' that the Dragon Demon has prepared for Miss Evil God?
The answer is somewhat related to the already eliminated Zouken Matou.

Do you still remember Matou Zouken's original plan?
He planned to use Sakura's body as a vessel to summon the evil god, and then find an opportunity to use the law magic to usurp the evil god - to replace the evil god's personality with his own personality.

This behavior is simply crazy.

But we have to admit that there is still some theoretical possibility of success.

After all, the evil god does not have a true "self-personality". She is a collection of unconscious malice among all mankind. She even needs to borrow Sakura's personality to have a conversation, and her actions will be influenced by Sakura.

If Matou Zouken succeeds in taking advantage of the situation and then shows the "will" to resist all the evil in this world, then theoretically - theoretically it is not impossible.

But even if Zouken Matou really went to this step, the final result would most likely be that the personality originally borrowed by the evil god would change from Sakura to Zouken Matou.

In order to do this, Matou Zouken hid a special magic insect for the purpose of 'taking over' Sakura's body in her heart in advance.

Honestly.
The dragon demon Azidahaka believed that a mere Kuto Zangyan was not worthy of being tested by the 'false Angra Mainyu' and the 'beast of truth, goodness and beauty'.

too weak.

Therefore, from the very beginning, the trial that the Dragon Demon Azdahaka prepared for Miss Evil God was not about Zouken Matou.

Rather, he is the defender of human principles.

It is true that Matou Zouken himself is completely corrupt to the depths of his soul.

But within the bloodline of Matou Zouken -- the Matou family -- the power of the 'defender of human nature' definitely exists.

Thousands of years ago, with the help of God, the Magic King Solomon created seventy-two super magic spells with personalities - the 'Humanity Maintenance Spell'.

These seventy-two super magic tricks, 'Humanity Maintenance Style', all have the ability to transcend the timeline and can protect human history from outside of time.

If there is a problem in human history, these seventy-two super magic programs will take action and perform "maintenance" on human history just like updating a game server.

The Magic King's plan was perfect.

But things went wrong right from the start.

The King of Magic implanted these seventy-two magics into his disciples in the form of genetic factors.

However, these disciples called these 72 self-aware super magicians "Demons" - "King Solomon's 72 Demons".

The disciples of the Magic King who have obtained the Devil Factor believe that:
These seventy-two super techniques will only be activated to protect humanity when a crisis of humanity occurs - isn't this too much of a waste of power?

In this case, when there is no crisis of humanity, it is only natural for us disciples to use its power to conduct research and make the family prosperous, right?

King Solomon's disciples studied and modified these seventy-two super techniques and made them work for themselves.

Thus, the seventy-two defenders of human nature became seventy-two demon gods.

The devil god passed down in the bloodline of the Matou family - the inherited defender of human order, his name is 'Barbatos'.

But this is, after all, a super technique created by King Solomon and God.

Even if later generations of disciples can modify and use them, they cannot touch their source code.

In other words, once they detect the emergence of a human crisis, they will be activated.

just now.

The Dragon Demon used his power as the God of Magic, 'Thousand Magic', to reactivate Barbatos' program and put it into the belly of the beast of truth, goodness and beauty!

Although it is a young creature that has not yet been born, the 'Beast of Truth, Goodness and Beauty' has indeed appeared. The appearance of the beast will be regarded as a 'crisis of humanity' by those who uphold humanity.

So, I woke up.

"Human Management Maintenance Barbatos Startup"

The defenders of human order, who were given the name of Demon God, carried out the mission (program) assigned to them by Solomon.

“The time has come to fork in the road”

The Demon Pillar Barbatos appears within the body of the evil god!

“Begin to correct the mistake”

This was reinforcement that was absolutely unexpected in advance. The demon Barbatos began to attack the evil god's body from the inside!
But for the evil god, this is not just a risk, but also an opportunity - it is a trial arranged for her by the dragon demon.

If Barbatos can be destroyed and devoured in time, the evil god will be able to obtain the source code of the magic program of the "Defender of Humanity".

The power of Barbatos. The power of just one demon pillar is not enough for the beast.

However, Barbatos is a super magic program created by Magic King Solomon with the help of God.

Regardless of its combat effectiveness, there will be a point in its source code.

That is the characteristic of 'transcendence of time and space'.

Once the evil god obtains this characteristic, it means that she can jump out of the cage of the Holy Grail system in Fuyuki City directly!

Directly realized his wish - 'to be born into this world'!
Once successfully "born into this world", according to the records of myths and legends, the evil god will directly obtain the power to "destroy one-third of the world"!

[This is the trial that the Dragon Demon arranged for the evil god! ]

[The Beast of Truth, Goodness and Beauty - Angora Mainyu vs. Barbatos, the Humanity-Preserving Type (Solomon sheds tears, the Devil actually did his job one day)]

[Because Barbatos cannot get support from the Grand Temple of Time, he cannot defeat the Beast of Truth, Goodness and Beauty]

[However, every time Barbatos wins a confrontation, Shirou will get an extra action round.]

[Under the control of the dragon demon, Barbatos's "humanity training": 1D1000=758]

[The evil god's 'anti-justice·all the evil in this world': 1D1000=993]

【Additional judgment! 】

[Why did the previously soft and vulnerable Miss Evil suddenly become so fierce? 】

[1. In fact, it was Barbatos who held the Dragon Demon back]

[2. Matou Zouken damaged Barbatos's program, causing Barbatos's power to decrease]

[3. "You are not your senior (Shirou)" (Additional judgment on the attitude of the evil lady towards Shirou. Due to the influence of Sakura's personality, a judgment of 1D30+70 is made. The size of this value will directly affect the subsequent plot content)]

【1D3=3】

【态度：1D30+70=30+70=100（？）】

——A moment
Barbatos, who tried to fight against the evil god, encountered——

"Ah? You're not a senior."

A merciless and cold voice.

There was no trace of the 'shameful' and 'soft and gullible' look he had before.

"Then why did I lose? The only one who can defeat me is a senior, and it has to be a senior."

Barbatos was crushed easily.

Then, the source code of the human-maintained Barbatos was swallowed by the evil god.

"I am a sacrifice to my senior (Shirou), destined to be destroyed by him, to be destroyed as a great disaster that will destroy one-third of the world - and then, let my senior become a 'hero'."

Sakura's soul, trapped in the evil god's body, stares at the evil god who is muttering to himself, staring at this evil god who is the victim of all human malice. He is an unconscious collection of souls that were cursed after the victims died.

The evil god here is not so much a specific victim as it is a residue, a curse, and the wish of people who hope that there is a "demon king who can be destroyed so that others can be happy" in the world.

She does not have a true sense of personality of her own, and what should be the heart is a void that cannot be filled.

Even the act of thinking itself requires the use of someone else's personality.

If nothing unexpected happens, according to the original story, the evil god will eventually choose to borrow Shirou's personality to think, and may even ascend to the Throne of Heroes and become a special servant.

But in this world line, the trajectory of the story was interrupted.

Because of the interference of the Dragon Demon himself, the personality (self) she borrowed to think with was Sakura.

But even so, the evil god still watched Shirou, still kept paying attention to Shirou secretly. Shirou himself didn't know that he actually had a mysterious "connection" with the evil god in the Fuyuki Holy Grail.

In other words, he has a unique "attraction" to the evil god.

Because - similar.

Shirou was caught in the Fuyuki fire and eroded by the black mud. He lost his memory and a hole appeared in his heart.

At the beginning, Shirou was like an evil god, who needed to borrow the "personality (self)" of others in order to think (live) as a human being. Originally (in the original work), it should have been Emiya Kiritsugu, but in this world line, he obtained the "personality (self)" from Miyamoto Musashi to fill the inner emptiness.

in other words.

At the beginning of the story of "Shirou Emiya is challenging FGO", the evil god has been silently observing Shirou.

After obtaining Sakura's 'personality (self)', the evil god secretly relied on Sakura's personality to think, and then continued to observe Shirou silently.

She is like the most loyal audience, or Shirou's most fanatical "fan", paying attention to Shirou's fighting, thinking, and growth.

This should be a kind of "compensatory psychology" among the same kind.

——Yes

Sakura suddenly realized that perhaps the reason why the evil god called Shirou "senior" was also a foreshadowing.

She called Shirou "senpai" not because of Sakura's influence on her.

Instead, he regards Shirou as "a 'senior' who originally had no heart like himself, and whose heart was empty, but who gradually gained his own self and heart."

The evil god, as a beast of truth, goodness and beauty, desires to gain a 'self-awareness' that belongs only to her.

But she can't.

After all, it was all just a misunderstanding.

The hole in Shirou's heart is due to the amnesia caused by a serious injury, and it is not something he was born with, so the hole in Shirou's heart can be filled with time.

But not the evil god.

The evil god had no heart from the beginning, the evil god had no soul from the beginning, and the evil god had no self from the beginning.

The only thing the evil god had at the beginning, the only wish (mission) she knew, was to be born into the world, destroy one third of the world, and bring about the end of the world!
Then they will be eliminated and become sacrifices for the next prosperous era.

Become the 'birth sacrifice' of the 'hero who saves the world'.

The evil god is just a wishful misunderstanding.

Shirou is fundamentally different from her.

It was just because of a misunderstanding that she called Shirou "senpai".

But maybe it's just a coincidence of fate.

The evil god made a decision. In the trial against the dragon demon, after absorbing the source code program of Barbatos, the evil god also grew.

She made her own choice.

Although she herself didn't know whether this decision was her own choice or the result of her imitating and borrowing the personality of 'Emiya Sakura'.

But she doesn't care about that now.

Break out of the cocoon!
While Shirou completed the 'Grand Heroic Spirit Summoning Technique', he passed the trial of the dragon demon and gained the ability to grow as an evil god. Because he obtained the source code program of the Demon Pillar, he gained the ability to 'transcend time and space' and successfully broke free from all the constraints of the Holy Grail system on her!
The beast of truth, goodness and beauty, the real one, realized his wish - he was born into the world!
It no longer looks like the stitched chimera it was before.

It was a pure white humanoid creature, and its appearance seemed somewhat similar to Ying. Its body length easily exceeded three kilometers. Countless deformed wings grew from its waist, back, and the joints of its limbs, covering the sky and the sun.

If the beast of truth, goodness and beauty before this was in its 'infancy', then this is its 'maturity'.

She only has one step left to become a "perfect body". That is, to carry out her next mission, the "first step" of her "desire to save the world" that people have entrusted to her.

That is - 'As a demon king, destroy one third of the world known to mankind'.

For humans in 1994, the world they knew and lived in was the Earth.

At the same time, for humans in 1994, the only weapon they knew that was the greatest malice of mankind in this era was nuclear weapons.

The power of nuclear fusion.

The same principle as the sun, the 'world-destroying science that created the sun' is in the hands of humans.

Light and heat converge in the hands of the beast of truth, goodness and beauty, pure white like a deformed angel.

This is a 'nuclear fusion bomb' powerful enough to destroy one-third of the Earth in one blow.

At this point, it is literally a 'mini sun', exerting a devastating impact on the human world.

If this blow is delivered, one third of the Earth will be destroyed, and the Beast of Truth, Goodness and Beauty will be able to evolve to its 'perfect form'.

After countless deaths were sacrificed——

Then, her destiny will enter a new final stage.

That is to say, being eliminated.

Become a sacrifice for the birth of a hero, a sacrifice for the prosperity of the next era.

The evil god unconditionally believed that the predecessor could definitely destroy him.

I can definitely become the 'sacrifice' of my predecessor and hero, and then -

Then?

The evil god naturally knew what would happen next and had considered it all.

Then, the predecessor who becomes a hero will become a hero who saves the world, and thus obtains a huge "karma of cause and effect", allowing the Shura gods and Buddhas who are paying attention to this side to help.

In other words, it is possible to save Toosaka Aoi, right?
The senior said so.

If Toosaka Aoi can be rescued and redeemed, her daughters Rin and Sakura can both be happy.

If they are happy, the seniors will definitely feel happy too.

The evil god - the embodiment of false justice, the beast of truth, goodness and beauty imagined such a scene.

Everyone is happy.

So that must be correct.

And realizing such a future is the 'meaning' that the Beast of Truth, Goodness and Beauty has chosen for himself, and it belongs only to him!
The 'value of existence' belongs only to her!
Let the seniors be happy!

To this end, what the Beast of Truth, Goodness and Beauty has to do is to carry out the mission it has been given.

——Become a demon king who destroys one third of the world!
Be destroyed as the demon king, and then let everyone have a happy ending!

"This is the final battle, and the final blow - Senior, witness the end of my battle.
Then, come and save the world (destroy the devil)!"

Let us make everyone happy - realize the true 'truth, goodness and beauty'!

This is the only choice the evil god can make for herself, and it is also the only 'happy solution' she can imagine.

As long as he is eliminated as a demon king, he will have the opportunity to make a wish to the Shura gods and Buddhas, and the Shura gods and Buddhas will be able to fulfill his wish.

In this way, everyone, including 'myself (Sakura)', can be saved.

Therefore, this blow is the final one!
If it really hits hard, the temporary data model barrier of Fuyuki City will definitely not be able to withstand it. It will break through the barrier and take away countless lives on the earth in the celestial world in 1994.

"[Anti-Justice, Truth, Goodness and Beauty (Catastrophic. Nuclear. Fusion)]"

The dark 'artificial sun' formed by the unconscious malice of mankind falls!
This blow put an end to the Fuyuki Incident and brought the story of Fuyuki to an end.

☆

The final blow that decides victory or defeat.

The same goes for Shirou.

And Vritra also gave Shirou the method to counter the evil god's final attack.

That exists in the story of Vritra, and is the reason why Vritra, which was originally a "phenomenon", has a human-like appearance.

This is the story of Indra and Vritra in the mythology of ancient India.

There are many, many, many versions of the story of Indra and Vritra.

There are also many, many, many versions of Indra himself. In many cases, it is even difficult to say that the different versions of Indra are the same person.

The power fluctuations among different versions of Indra are also huge.

From the invincible ultimate monster to the villain BOSS, everyone can come and trample on it.

Even in Arjuna's story, there is a bizarre plot of "five Indras reincarnated at the same time".

What is the truth behind this?

the answer is--

There is more than one Indra.

To be more precise, in addition to 'Indra as the main god', there have been many people 'called Indra' in history.

After all, the name Indra means 'the one who defeats Vritra'.

Vritra is the eternal and immortal demon. She has been defeated and resurrected time and time again, and has seen many humans who were called "the one who defeated Vritra (Indra)".

There are countless versions of the story of how Indra defeated Vritra in various ways.

What is the source of all these stories?
That would have to go back to the beginning, when Vritra was not yet the Vritra that can communicate and converse as it is today, and when Vritra was still known as the 'Weir World Dragon'.

At that time, the Weir Dragon's appearance was ice and snow - an ice sheet covering the surface of the earth.

The cold and harsh environment blocked the living space of ancient humans.

Limited space can only produce limited food, limited food can only give birth to a limited number of humans, and a limited number of humans can only have a limited degree of civilization.

It can't even be called civilization.

Creatures called humans can only eventually split internally and become hostile to each other under the tightening pressure of the ice blockade, competing for limited space, fighting for survival, regressing for survival, and causing their civilization to degenerate for survival.

This is not such a rare thing.

The Weir Dragon has seen countless lives destroyed in this cycle.

The cycle will continue until the 'ultimate single life form' is born.

But after countless births and destructions, an accident happened.

Human beings did not give up, nor did they turn their knives against their own kind. Instead, they resolutely chose to challenge nature.

After countless sacrifices, countless deaths, countless failures, but not being discouraged, they summed up their experiences and set out again.

For the first time, mankind successfully completed the "transformation of the natural environment" - a people's livelihood project.

Is the natural environment harsh and difficult to survive?

Then transform the environment and make it more suitable for human survival!

Thus, human civilization began to progress.

It violates the order of endless killing in this universe and brings about a chaotic era of "collective society".

This aroused the interest of Yanjielong.

After discovering that humans are constantly challenging nature, growing, acquiring knowledge, researching and developing engineering, developing social systems to strengthen cohesion, etc. - causing the order of the universe to rush towards chaos, Vritra became interested.

Because humans are not extinct.

Even though there were only a few thousand people left during the most difficult times, they still held on, fought and overcame the harsh environment, and continued to become stronger.

It's not about 'becoming stronger for your own survival'.

It's about 'becoming stronger in order to protect others'.

This chaotic event aroused the curiosity of Yanjielong.

So, the Weir Dragon, which was supposed to be a natural phenomenon (the rules of the universe), created its own clone, a monster of an evil dragon.

Humans called that monster 'Vritra'.

Humanity did not back down.

In the darkest and most difficult times, the ancestors of mankind, with courage, wisdom, and bravery, after countless sacrifices, inheritance, and entrustment, truly destroyed Vritra for the first time.

Thus, the Weir Dragon got his own name and gladly accepted the gift given to him by humans.

The first fall of Vritra also meant the birth of the 'Dragon God Vritra' known to later generations.

She will be resurrected again and again, threatening the survival of the human race again and again, and then expecting humans to create a miracle to destroy her - that is, to open up a path to the future of human civilization.

In a sense, the Dragon God Vritra himself also possesses the "power to open up the future" - Vritra allowed humans to further open up the future at the cost of his own defeat.

This characteristic is necessary to use the 'Gun Crown' among the seven crowns.

Vritra himself is a great disaster, but he also loves humanity - not any individual human being, but the way human civilization continues to exist.

As long as humans do not reach the end of corruption and complacency, Vritra's love will continue.

The information that Shirou obtained from Vritra was the method to turn the tide and achieve victory, which was in the story of "the first defeat of Vritra".

In order to survive, humans in ancient civilizations paid countless sacrifices.
Humans used all their strength, wisdom and bravery to create the "Lightning Spear" that can destroy Vritra.

Because the weapon defeated Vritra, it was named "Indra", which means "the one who defeated Vritra".

That’s right, the original Indra was not actually a certain person, nor was he the main god who is called Indra now, but a "weapon to save the world" created by combining the strength, wisdom, and courage of all mankind!
When Kirshtalia successfully activated the 'Grand Heroic Spirit Summoning Technique' and successfully summoned Vritra, Vritra turned around and threw the Grand Heroic Spirit Base to Shirou - also for this moment.

Yes!

The answer is already apparent!

Vritra said: "Shirou, it is up to you to project (forge) and use the 'Saving Divine Weapon (Indra)' - the material is the spirit base of the 'Grand Spear'!"

This is also the 'trial' that Vritra prepared for Shirou.

Waver also interrupted the communication channel at this time and reminded: "If Shirou can't complete the forging in a short time, Rin, you will control Vritra and use the Conqueror's Light Wheel to delay the time for that thing (world-destroying nuclear weapon) to fall and explode!"

"Then let's get started, Shirou."

Vritra opened his arms towards Shirou:
"Spiritual Supplementation - I wanted to give you an 'adult kiss', but now doesn't seem to be the right time to do that, so let's leave it for the next time we meet, when you are an adult~"

To project the ‘divine saviour’, information was needed, and the person who knew the most about that thing was naturally only Vrido.

There's no time for any more nonsense.

The evil god has passed the test of the dragon demon and has grown from infancy to maturity.
The ultimate weapon of world destruction, like a miniature sun, is falling towards the ground!

To do this, Shirou must project (forge) a corresponding weapon - a divine weapon of salvation!
[In order to fight against the 'world-destroying weapon' of the 'Beast of Truth, Goodness and Beauty' that has entered its 'mature stage']

[With the help of Vritra, Shirou must use the 'Grand Spear' as material to forge a corresponding 'World-Saving Divine Weapon'! ]

[If it fails, it means that 'the forging was not successful this round', so it is necessary to make an additional judgment on other people using the 'Hegemon's Light Wheel' to delay the fall of the World Destruction Weapon]

[Total: 1673]

——At this point

Everything seemed to be a natural outcome as if it were fate.

With the assistance of Vritra, and with the help of the power borrowed from the 'Future Shirou' used by Shirou.

In the distant ancient times, the ultimate divine weapon that opened up a path for human civilization was successfully forged using the crown of spears as its material.

Supported by the energy of Vritra's spiritual base and the Halo of the Conqueror, Susanoo once again became extremely huge, and it raised the giant bow in its hand, which was more than a kilometer long, aiming at the sunlight falling from the disaster beast in the sky.

Shirou controlled Susanoo, picked up the Conqueror's Light Wheel, transformed it into the form of an arrow, and condensed infinite heat into an arrow of light.

Thunder roared! That was the roar of justice, the manifestation of the majesty of judgment!
The gun of light that opens up the future!
This is the strongest ultimate attack Shirou can deliver at this moment!
Draw the bow and shoot the sun!
“——【Indra’s Arrow】!!!”

【Final duel decision! 】

[Let’s decide the outcome of this battle in one go! ]

【真善美之兽的‘反正义·此世一切之恶’：1D10+90=2+90=92】

【卫宫士郎的‘枪之冠位·因陀罗之矢’：1D10+90=10+90=100】

【100＞92】

【The winner has been decided! 】

【（Additional big success reward plot）】

The pure white spear of lightning destroyed the dark sun, and then went all the way up - piercing through the chest of the beast of truth, goodness and beauty.

False justice throughout.

Billions of thunder waterfalls are running through the body of the disaster beast. Even though it is immortal, it continues to destroy it, repeating the cycle of destruction and repair.

This attack was so powerful that Shirou, who used it, felt as if all the nerves in his body were being burned by the scorching thunder, as if he would turn into charcoal at any time.

——No
The beast of truth, goodness and beauty whispered:

"No, Senior. Angra Mainyu cannot be destroyed before destroying one-third of the world."

not enough.

I haven’t done enough. The Beast of Truth, Goodness and Beauty lamented in his heart: Because I haven’t done enough, the senior is still suffering now.

You have to work harder.

For the seniors.

For the "wish of all mankind" that he hopes to become the Demon King and then save mankind by destroying the Demon King, a "necessary evil".

In order to achieve true 'goodwill' and 'beauty'.

I have to work harder.

Because this is the only knowledge he knows as a sacrifice.

It is his mission, it is his destiny, it is what he must do, it is something only he can do.

A sad beast that knows not what love is—

Sakura knew everything about the beast.

Shirou learned everything about the beast through Sakura.

Toosaka Rin knew everything about the beast through Shirou.

Therefore, the young heroes, the chosen children, must win.

Because if she really kills someone, there will be no turning back.

Shirou and Rin's consciousness, through the fired spear of light (the crown of spears), through the connection between Zanpakutō and Sakura's soul, went to the body of the Beast of Truth, Goodness and Beauty, which was now shattered by thunder, repeating destruction and recovery, and was in its weakest state.

Shirou and Rin came to Sakura's side, and also came to the side of the 'Evil God (the Beast of Truth, Goodness and Beauty)'.

The evil god couldn't understand: "Senior, why did you do this? Why did you come here? Why can't you wait for me to complete my mission, make you a hero, and let everyone be saved?"

Shirou didn't answer.

However, after he and Rin freed Sakura's soul from the evil god's control, he did not just take her out of the evil god's body.

Instead, he stayed there and began to meditate and chant the most important scripture of Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva: The Lotus Sutra

The evil god couldn't understand why they were doing such a thing in this most dangerous place.

To save yourself?

Does this make sense?
"As the beast of truth, goodness and beauty, the only meaning of 'I' is to become the devil and be destroyed as a sacrifice of necessary evil!
If I can’t achieve true kindness and beauty – then what’s the point of all the suffering I’ve endured! ? ”

Shirou's voice paused slightly.

"I don't understand that."

His voice was as calm as always, but this time there seemed to be a hint of sadness in the calmness:
"I just know that there are poor people in front of me who need to be saved."

"What?" The evil god couldn't understand. "Why are you helping me? Why do I deserve to be saved by you, Senior? I'm a sacrifice! I was born to be a sacrifice!"

".There is no such thing as 'born'." Shirou shook his head, "There are people in need of help in front of me, and I have the ability and want to lend a hand - I save you, I save you, and it is also for my own peace of mind and for my own practice."

Afterwards, no matter how the evil god cursed or how he begged Shirou to destroy him and make him a sacrifice for the birth of a savior hero, Shirou remained silent, but just silently chanted the curse in the company of Rin and Sakura.

Shirou remembered what everyone had told him before this final battle began.

Although - Shirou actually doesn't quite understand too many complicated things related to mysticism, nor does he quite understand the so-called karma cycle and retribution. He can't quite understand why Guanyin Bodhisattva and others have the intention but cannot help him.

But Shirou at least knew that, according to everyone, his actions had always been watched by Asura gods and Buddhas such as Guanyin Bodhisattva.

They are not enemies, they also want to help, but there are limits to what they can do, and for various reasons, it is difficult for them to directly help.

If that’s the case, then helping to chant sutras for the deceased is also possible, right?
It is obvious that the souls that gave birth to the beast of truth, goodness and beauty are innocent, and they are also victims.

Why must they bear the sin and curse?
Why can't their souls be liberated as well?
Bodhisattva, please tell me
Buddha, please tell me

"Because it is impossible to completely eliminate the beast of truth, goodness and beauty by just praying for salvation." The voice of the Bodhisattva sounded in Shirou's ears.

The Buddha also told Shirou: "Even if we liberate these souls here, as long as the social welfare system of mankind as a whole and the evolution of human nature do not keep up, sooner or later, a new beast of truth, goodness and beauty will be born."

To this, Shirou just stubbornly, or obstinately, answered: "Then I will go and save them again - I don't understand, Buddha, Bodhisattva, is it just for these reasons?
Is it just because "there will be new victims in the future" that I can ignore the victims in front of me now?
Doing your best to save the victims - is this something that can only be done if there is some special reason for profit?"

Shirou was not questioning the Buddha and the Bodhisattva.

The young boy was just stubborn and spoke out his thoughts. That was all.

His answer was——

"Hahahaha! Very good! Very good! Good boy! I, Old Sun, was right about you!"

Buddha - Fighting and Victory Buddha was so happy that he could even be said to be laughing unbridled.

A phantom appeared in the body of the evil god. It was an old monkey that looked energetic and unruly, with a monk's robe casually draped over it. The Fighting Buddha actually joined the ranks of chanting.

It's not just Son Goku who initially started paying attention to Shirou.

Various blurry phantoms, including Guanyin Bodhisattva, a mysterious immortal who looked like a Taoist priest, and a Buddha with a big belly and a friendly smile, appeared beside Shirou and inside the body of the Beast of Truth, Goodness and Beauty, and began to chant scriptures.

Even the other magicians present - whether it was Waver and his group or the Chaldeans - were inspired by it and couldn't help but start chanting along.

Emiya Kiara looked at these phantoms of real Buddhas and Bodhisattvas, her eyes sparkling, and no one knew what she saw.

Even Vritra couldn't help but marvel at the scene, and he actually started chanting along with the others.

Lyrics of "Night Fantasy":
Even though I was walking with mistakes, I never stopped.
Although I am not complete, I can still smile and perfunctorily deal with it.

Trying to fill the gap, but still can't fill it
Everyone gets lost and knows the reason why life is so bitter
Can the mind still support itself? I guess it will suffer a little.
Forgive us for leaving, forgive us for the moment of our birth

Even if the body is burnt and broken, the road still continues

That beauty, that compassion, will eventually flow into the river and disappear without a trace

Collect the remaining residues and go further
Cross the night and keep moving forward
