Curse Reply: I'm going to fight the Myriad Corpse Immortal, the highest level one!

"Really? Is it really King Arthur?!"

"Please tell me his story! Please!"

In Type-Moon, Richard grew up listening to the legends of King Arthur, and he spent his life following in King Arthur's footsteps, searching for the things King Arthur left behind.

Even his Noble Phantasm, "Eternal and Distant Victory," is closely related to King Arthur's Noble Phantasm, "Excalibur."

Upon hearing Xia Jie utter the name of his idol, Richard the Lionheart knew that he had made the right decision to participate in this Holy Grail War.

"Let her tell you herself."

Xia Jie shook her head and gestured for Richard to turn around and look behind him.

Richard understood Xia Jie's gaze, yet he couldn't believe it. His body, like an unlubricated, sluggish gear, slowly and stiffly turned around.

Golden hair, knight's armor with blue patterns, a dignified yet pure gaze, and the sword at his waist.

Although the gender doesn't match the legend, there's no doubt that this is the knight king he's been searching for all his life!

"Ah...uh..."

Richard was momentarily speechless with emotion. A thousand words surged and echoed in his chest, but when they rushed out, only meaningless noise remained.

Longing is the emotion furthest from understanding, but Xia Jie manually cut away that distance, allowing this longing and fervent fan to finally see his idol.

However, the disillusionment rate of King Arthur "Artoria Pendragon" is almost zero. Perhaps the only one who would feel disillusioned because of King Arthur's gender and personality is Kiritsugu Emiya.

As a ruthless pursuer of justice, Kiritsugu Emiya's greatest desire is for a Servant who can assassinate his Master. If King Arthur were not a knight who adheres to dogma and honor, but a ruthless king who would collude with him and cooperate with his plans, he would probably feel genuine joy.

As an aside, Xia Jie did not "resurrect" King Arthur. This King Arthur disappeared after the Fourth Holy Grail War and was summoned back by Shirou Emiya, Kiritsugu Emiya's adopted son, during the Fifth Holy Grail War.

In this timeline where the Holy Grail War takes place in Snowfield City, the Fifth Holy Grail War in Fuyuki City seems to have ended in a positive way.

If Xia Jie were to slightly raise her perspective, she could see that the Servants in Fuyuki City, thanks to Caster Medea, had received a stable supply of mana, allowing them to remain hidden in the city and continue to exist to this day.

"Does anyone have any questions...? Well, there are only a few seconds left in the three minutes, so let's end the Q&A session here."

Xia Jie opened the window to see how the wish made by all of humanity would evolve.

Well, strictly speaking, it doesn't actually include all of humanity. Infants, people in a vegetative state, people with intellectual disabilities, people under general anesthesia, and a very few who were sleeping so soundly that even a live broadcast couldn't wake them up, all missed the opportunity to make a wish.

Open the window, and a dense array of wishes transforms into words, intertwining, tearing, and splitting together; those that contradict each other are canceled out, while those that are similar are merged.

One person's wish can only cancel out one opposing wish. For example, "I want to become a god" will cancel out "I wish the world had no gods".

"May there be world peace" will then merge with "May there be no more war and exploitation in the world".

The billions of wishes piled up like a mountain of words are quickly simplified under the above mechanism, like a sponge being gradually squeezed dry.

Because it can only be a grand wish, "making someone rich" and "making someone wealthy for life" will be combined into something like "making everyone have abundant resources."

A few seconds later, the final wish appeared, consisting of less than ten words:

May justice always prevail over evil.

Through the window, countless people participating in the live stream also witnessed their wishes coming true.

Most of them breathed a sigh of relief, while a few felt a bone-chilling cold.

Those who committed unforgivable sins have already died from the burning of the holy flames, but there are still quite a few who survived the burning.

From the moment Jesus descended, they sensed that something terrible was about to happen, and they could only hope that the Holy Son could, as he had been nailed to the cross in the past, settle the score for the many sins committed by mankind once again.

But the content of their current wish has ultimately shattered their last hope.

"I have received your wishes."

Xia Jie reached out and scooped up the ground, and the Great Holy Grail hidden in the underground spiritual vein materialized into a golden cup that quickly shrank and was held steadily in Xia Jie's palm.

"It's up to you now, my friend."

Xia Jie looked at the white dove on her shoulder.

"Gurgle?"

The white dove tilted its head and cooed, its eyes filled with a human-like confusion.

"I think the people here trust you more than I do."

The white dove nodded, flapped its wings and flew above the Holy Grail. Its claws loosened, and a delicate olive branch floated down from mid-air, slowly sinking into the extremely rich liquid magic in the cup.

Then the magic transformed into flowing light, which in turn became a pillar of light that pierced through heaven and earth, illuminating the sky and the earth until they were transparent.

The buildings on earth, as well as the flesh and bones of people, were also illuminated.

In the light that sees through all things, there are formless and shapeless rules anchored here.

Its name is "Justice always triumphs over evil," and it is indeed unchanged.

Although Yege doesn't like to speak human language, he is impeccable when it comes to doing things.

Xia Jie's only puzzle was why the great gods, including Ye Ge, who had the ability to save the world, were almost never seen taking action.

Those who are truly active in the world are always beings of the level of "Joan of Arc", "King Solomon" and "the seventy-two demons". Even angels such as "Michael" do not intervene in the mortal world, let alone "Yege" or even "God".

It feels like the truly awesome, top-tier powerhouses in the world have all become mere background figures.

From the perspective of fantasy works, it is indeed understandable not to write about it. Firstly, if the ceiling is set, the story of the main characters cannot unfold normally.

Just like now, once the pigeons come down, the tense and exciting Holy Grail War in the original storyline has turned into a children's game under adult supervision.

Furthermore, aside from Buddhism and Taoism, the deities in large-scale belief systems that are fabricated and arbitrarily created in reality could actually be killed off by believers in real life.

Especially the energetic Middle Eastern guys, they're the real-life assassins with top-notch reputations.

But this is the real world, a real alien world derived from the principles of reality, stripped of so-called real-world factors.

So why are God and the enlightened ones indifferent to human suffering here?

Xia Jie chose to ask the person involved directly.

"Friend, if you're so awesome, why did you watch Joan of Arc get burned at the stake?"

"Gurgle~ Gurgle~!"

The white dove cooed calmly twice, and beneath the temporary veneer of humanity, something more essential was revealed.

Xia Jie's eyes gradually sharpened; he understood.

So Xia Jie spoke up:

"Bro, I really have to kick you."
