Abnormal Moon

This message was beyond the limits of what his brain could process at that moment.

All he knew was that his health had been poor since childhood.

But his life was hanging by a thread because of Akiha?

His mind was in complete chaos, his ability to think had been stripped away, and he couldn't understand the meaning of the sentence at all.

Seeing his clueless look, Roy gestured for Tono Akiha to enter.

You and your siblings can take care of your personal matters first; don't worry about me.

"...I'll explain it to you later."

Tono Akiha's expression was so gloomy that it looked like he wanted to kill someone.

She looked at Tono Shiki, met his confused gaze, sighed with a headache, and temporarily put the question aside.

"So, what do you want to say?"

She looked at Roy again, her eyes filled with a deep sense of unfamiliarity.

She could tell that Roy seemed to have something in mind.

This plan involved her brother.

This matter must be resolved with the highest priority!

"I can cure him!"

Roy smiled and raised his snow-white palm.

"You should know that I have strong physical abilities, right? For an android to have such physical qualities, you should be able to understand how much I can modify my body."

"Even if I bring someone back from the brink of death, or even someone who has already died, as long as their spirit hasn't died and their soul hasn't perished, I can still bring them back—I can cure Tohno Shiki and free him from his current state. Not only that, I can also make him live to be a hundred years old, and having superhuman strength will be a piece of cake for him."

Tono Akiha's expression hardened.

Her eyes flickered slightly.

"...Can you really do it?"

"If you don't believe me, I can do the experiment with you right now."

Roy burst out laughing.

Although brother-complex individuals are often unreasonable, they have one major advantage.

The good thing is that she's easy to control!

Akiha Tono was unable to completely save Shiki Tono, so she could only share her own life with him to keep him alive.

But what she wanted most was for Tono Shiki to fully recover.

Roy could tell that Tono Akiha was somewhat interested.

As long as he can demonstrate the corresponding abilities, he can win her heart.

"Wait a moment!"

At that moment, Tono Shiki's voice suddenly broke between the two.

He looked sharply at Roy, his eyes filled with a hint of wariness.

"Assuming what you're saying is true, and you can do what you're saying, it definitely won't come without a price, right? What exactly do you want to do?"

Roy exuded an aura of "I have a purpose".

Tono Shiki isn't stupid; of course he can see it.

This sense of purpose made him uneasy, and he was on high alert.

Tono Akiha remained silent.

But her gaze also fell on Roy, her expression softening slightly.

"...Tell me your conditions."

"There's only one thing I want, and only Tokyo is worth my attention."

Roy stood up from the sofa and looked down at the two of them with disdain.

“I have a small goal: to restore this world to its original state. But right now, apart from Fuyuki City, the other cities are not under my control. So what I want is Tokyo itself.”

This is Roy's real purpose in coming to Tokyo.

Finding Nino and Satsuki was certainly part of the plan, and resolving the cursed spirit disaster was just a side effect; his real goal was to bring Tokyo under his control.

"In this era, fighting will only increase casualties and make the already precarious population even more vulnerable. That would be a huge loss. But if I want to change the status quo of this world, I must enforce the rules. So not only Tokyo, but the entire Japan and the world itself will be brought under my control."

"I want to resolve all the troubles by the most peaceful means possible, and restore the world to its original state. That's why I'm here. I'll use what I have to trade for what you want, and achieve unification in this way. Of course, I also hope you remember that I do not rule out the use of force."

"This is my request. Whether you agree or not is up to you. I don't expect you to give me an answer now. Such a big matter requires time to process. Please think it over carefully, but I hope you will give me a reply before I leave Tokyo!"

Three chapters are still owed.

Chapter 307 Real Person

"Rider, what do you think?"

After leaving the mansion, Weber walked towards the city hall with the transfer order in hand.

As he walked, he didn't look at the road, but instead lowered his head and pondered something, as if he were lost in thought, occasionally asking the red-haired burly man beside him for his opinion.

"Hmm? I haven't seen many cursed spirits, so I don't really have any opinion on them."

Iskandar pondered for a moment, then spread his hands in a very straightforward manner.

"No, there's already some progress on the matter of the cursed spirit. I'm referring to that guy named Roy. What do you think of him?"

"That white-haired brat?"

Upon hearing this, Iskandar stared wide-eyed at Weber, his expression full of astonishment.

"What, do you suspect him? Maybe he's the mastermind behind it all?"

"That's not true."

Weber looked at him with an expression of utter disbelief.

"I just feel that his understanding of cursed spirits is inexplicably deep. The process by which he deduced the conclusion just now didn't seem like reasoning, but rather like he had the answer beforehand and was working backward... I think he is quite extraordinary, and I want to ask him how strong he is."

"I see. Although we haven't fought, that kid seems quite imposing. He must be a very formidable opponent, without a doubt!"

Upon hearing this, Iskandar recalled his brief encounter with Roy earlier.

“He clearly knew who I was, but he was only wary of me. He didn’t show any fear. Rather than saying ‘this is big trouble,’ he probably felt more like ‘there’s trouble.’ He must be very confident in his abilities.”

Even knowing that Iskandar was a Heroic Spirit, he was only on guard and did not feel afraid. He didn't even break out in a cold sweat and didn't seem to feel any pressure at all.

This is probably based on his confidence that he can fight him to a standstill.

"So, he's very strong, right?"

"What, don't you understand what I mean?"

"Stop looking down on people!"

Weber glared at Iskandar.

"What I mean is, given your current state, what would happen if you fought him?"

Upon hearing this, Iskandar's rough brows furrowed tightly, his face showing a troubled expression.

"It's hard to say. If I were in my prime, I would be confident in defeating any enemy, but as you know, I'm not in half my current condition. Although I've shaken off the corruption and even taken the opportunity to be physically assaulted, I'm not as strong as I used to be..."

It took Weber a full ten years to get Iskandar out of his corrupted state.

He has consulted countless documents, tried countless magic tricks, and devoted countless hours to this research. He has spent almost all of his ten years on this project, neglecting to eat or sleep.

The final result was good.

But it's not exactly great either.

Iskandar did indeed break free from his corruption, but he lost more than half of his power.

In order to free him from his corruption, Waver devised a plan: he split Iskandar in two, pulling out a normal Iskandar from the corrupted Iskandar.

The Iskandar beside him is the normal Iskandar, but he only occupies a small portion of the power, while the other corrupted Iskandar occupies the majority of the power.

That was on the eve of the Holy Grail War, about a month ago.

Originally, he and the normal Iskandar were being hunted down by the corrupted Iskandar. They originally wanted to go to Fuyuki City to participate in the Holy Grail War and use the power of Heroic Spirits to fight against the corrupted Iskandar, but the corrupted Iskandar kept harassing them, making it impossible for them to get away and causing them to miss this Holy Grail War.

It wasn't until one night twenty days ago, when the corrupted Iskandar suddenly vanished into thin air, that they escaped. Waver only learned later that this Holy Grail War ended that very night, the Greater Grail disappeared without a trace, and the corrupted Iskandar lost its source of manifestation, returning to Valhalla, which allowed them to escape this calamity.

However, Iskandar's power was not fully regained. Although he had been given flesh and became a living person, his power was less than half of what it used to be.

If Roy can remain calm even when facing a fully-fledged Iskandar, then if he were to face an Iskandar with less than half his power, the battle might become one-sided.

"But there's no need to be so wary of him. We might not actually fight him, and he doesn't seem to have any intention of doing so."

"That would be best, but I always felt he was destined for greatness..."
