My transformation into a beautiful girl started with a hemorrhage.

Chapter 380 The Curtain Falls

"Bastard!!" Artoria roared, her anger instantly ignited by Hui's disregard for human life. "Don't you feel even a little bit guilty?"

"Guilt? Why should I feel guilty?" Hui asked earnestly.

His nonchalant demeanor sent a chill down everyone's spine. At that moment, they suddenly realized: what kind of being is God!

Ruthless killers? Utterly devoid of conscience?

Do not!

God is simply high above and has no concept of good and evil like humans.

In the eyes of God, mortals are no different from pebbles on the roadside; they are beings that can be completely ignored. God will neither be happy nor sad because of pebbles.

The two sides are not on the same wavelength at all.

"Don't you have a heart? So many lives have died because of you, and you're completely indifferent!"

"Hey~!" Hui suddenly stopped laughing and became serious, and a heavy, oppressive atmosphere instantly filled the air.

"What do you think we're doing here? What's a little sacrifice compared to getting the Holy Grail that can grant any wish?"

In fact, to me, even sacrificing the entire Earth wouldn't be too much. If you can't even accept this much sacrifice, you might as well commit suicide now and withdraw from the Holy Grail War.

After hearing Hui's words, Artoria's pupils dilated; she seemed to understand Hui's true nature.

Clang—!

She raised her holy sword and pointed it at Hui: "It was my mistake to speak to you, but out of chivalry, I cannot let you continue!"

"Oh~" Hui looked at Artoria with surprise, especially lingering on her injured left hand for a while. "Do you think you can beat me? Especially with this injury."

"Let me make this clear: I won't show you any mercy just because you're a woman."

Hui's words seemed a bit strange to everyone. Between women, there was no need for chivalry or tenderness. However, they still understood what Hui meant.

"I don't need any mercy from an evil god like you."

After saying that, Artoria's entire demeanor suddenly changed, and her body instantly tensed up like a spring, ready to fight to the death.

Kiritsugu Emiya, who was watching this scene through a scope in the distance, changed his expression: "Oh no, the worst has happened after all."

From the moment he first saw Artoria, he knew she was the kind of knight who valued honor to the point of being almost pedantic, completely incompatible with his Master who would stop at nothing to achieve his goals.

And now, Artoria's behavior is exactly the same as what he feared.

She really wanted to confront that god head-on. For a moment, Kiritsugu Emiya didn't know whether to call her brave or foolish.

Anyone with eyes can see that there is no hope of defeating that god head-on.

The wise thing to do would be to find that god's master and kill him!

No matter how powerful a servant is, they cannot exist without a master.

"Mai, have you found that god's Master?"

"No, we can't find it at all." Maiya's voice came through the wireless device to Kiritsugu Emiya's ears. "Kiritsugu, what do we do now?"

"We can't let Saber fight that god, so we have to use Command Seals now."

……

Warehouse Street.

"Wait a minute." Lancer suddenly blocked Artoria's path.

He raised his crimson spear at Hui, assuming a fighting stance: "My battle with Saber is not over yet, therefore Saber cannot die. Moreover, it is a knight's duty to vanquish evil, and what you have done is undoubtedly the height of evil!"

“In that case, add me to the list. Oh, you are undoubtedly a formidable opponent. Strategically speaking, only by defeating the strongest of you can we achieve final victory. So don’t complain that we are outnumbered.” Iskandar also turned his chariot towards Hui.

Hui scoffed and said disdainfully, "Didn't I tell you from the beginning to come at me all at once? What are you dawdling for? Do you really think a bunch of ants can jump around in front of me?"

Hui's eyes swept over Artoria, Diarmuid, and Iskandar in turn.

Then, as Hui half-raised his hand, golden vortexes instantly appeared in the void behind him, from which magical artifacts slowly emerged, emitting an ominous dark red light. The scene was exactly the same as the one where the Orlando Spear had slaughtered 2.7 million people.

Terrifyingly powerful magic began to gather...

"How is this possible?!" Weber was shocked by what he saw.

What happened next left him speechless. A massive magical force suddenly appeared on Lancer, who had just bravely stepped forward, and carried him away regardless of space. It was clearly a forced transfer by a Command Seal.

And coincidentally, Artoria was also forcibly transferred away by a Command Spell.

Suddenly, only he and Rider were left facing Hui, oh, and the foreign woman next to Saber.

Hui watched this scene in silence.

The downside of [Annihilation Strike] is that it cannot be cast instantly; it requires charging, and the more Noble Phantasms are burned, the longer the charging time becomes.

This undoubtedly gave the opponent a chance to escape.

As Hui looked in the direction where Saber and Lancer disappeared, a thought suddenly flashed through her mind: If I destroy Fuyuki City, no, I destroy the entire neon... Once this thought appeared, it was impossible to stop it.

Because it is entirely feasible to burn all the Noble Phantasms, which represent a fraction of the Gate of Babylon she obtained, all at once while high in the air and facing the ground.

Whether the power generated by this process can penetrate the Earth is unknown, but Hui knows that it can definitely destroy Neon.

Hui's eyes began to light up.

To Weber, however, it was like the smile of a devil.

He could no longer see Hui as a beautiful female. The thought of her slaughtering more than two million people filled him with dread when he looked at her.

However, at that moment, Hui suddenly frowned. She sensed that the cheap Master's magical power was intermittent, and it seemed that he was about to die at any moment...

After thinking for a moment, Hui decided to go check on Matou Kariya first. What if the Holy Grail didn't appear because the ritual was incomplete, and he was dead?

As for the final choice, will it be the soul of all of Japan or the omnipotent wishing cup...?

Hui said: Only children make choices; she wants them all!

She glanced at Iskandar one last time, then turned and vanished in spirit form.

When Weber saw the target Hui was targeting, he was so frightened that he hid in the chariot and dared not look up. Only after Hui left did he have a look of relief on his face: "Thank goodness, I'm saved."

"You're being too useless," Iskandar teased Webber about his cowardice.

……

Chapter 381 The Supervisor

Kiritsugu Emiya and Kenneth both tacitly transferred their respective Servants away.

They all realized that the way to defeat Hui was to find a way to kill her Master; they had no chance of winning in a direct battle against a Heroic Spirit.

The dilapidated factory buildings, with their mottled walls and winding pipes all around, filled the air with the pungent smell of rust. By the moonlight, the rusty chimneys in the style of the last century could be clearly seen.

"Cough cough... vomit..."

Suddenly, from a dark corner of this devastated place, came a series of painful coughs.

Matou Kariya knelt on the ground in agony, one hand supporting himself on the rusty floor, the other covering his bleeding mouth and nose.

Beneath him, the rusted ground was covered in a pool of blood, with worm-like creatures wriggling in the blood, looking grotesque, terrifying, and disgusting.

However, in stark contrast to Matou Kariya's miserable appearance was the almost maniacal smile on his face.

"Envoy, I really want to see that mournful look on your face, hahaha... ugh!"

Before he could even laugh twice, another large mouthful of blood mixed with insects gushed out of his mouth.

Hui's strength gave him hope of defeating Tokiomi. As long as he could defeat Tokiomi, he could see that man lose to him in the Holy Grail War that he cared about most.

The pain of being eaten away by the Markworms was nothing compared to the agony of being devoured all over one's body.

As for the disappearance of the entire Osaka, he might not have been able to accept such a thing in the past. However, after a year of torment, with only one month left to live, he would not hesitate to bear any amount of sin as long as Sakura could be saved in the end.

"Hey, are you about to die?"

A flash of light appeared, and Hui's figure materialized there.

Under the divine aura emanating from Hui, the insects inside Matou Kariya's body quieted down.

With a pale face, he struggled to raise his head and saw Hui, giving a bitter smile: "Hui, I'm sorry to have worried you. I won't die until I defeat Tokiomi."

"I don't think I used much of your magic."

Hui's magic has two sources. The essence of the Void Soul allows her to directly absorb magic from the Great Source, which is the life force of planets, the life force of the atmosphere, etc.

But whether it was just her imagination or not, Hui vaguely felt that this planet actually had its own consciousness, and that it was even hostile towards her, deliberately restricting her from absorbing the magic in the air.

Therefore, Kei also needs Kariya Matou to provide magic as a supplement in order to maintain his physical form.

However, neither "teleportation," "devouring," nor "annihilation strike" consume any additional magic power.

"I'm sorry, I'm so useless. If it weren't for me, you might have won already," Matou Kariya said.

Because Hui's soul contains divinity, he has already reached his limit by merely maintaining the other's physical form.

"It's alright. I could tell you were useless the moment I arrived. There's no need to apologize for it again."

Matou Kariya: "..."

"What should we do next?" Matou Kariya asked.

Ever since he learned what Kei meant by "I'm weak," Matou Kariya has started to prioritize Kei.

"Of course... I'll go home."

……

An underground parking lot.

Artoria arrived here after being forcibly transferred by Kiritsugu Emiya.

"Kiritsugu, why did you stop me from dueling with Caster?" Artoria questioned.

Upon hearing this, Kiritsugu Emiya's usually cold face broke into a rare smile, albeit a sarcastic one.

"Miss Knight, aren't you being a little too confident? What makes you think you can be a match for that Heroic Spirit?"

Artoria replied without hesitation, "As a knight, how can I retreat because of death!"
