In Type-Moon, it all starts with adopting Sakura.

Noticing everyone staring at him, the mysteriously appearing Leif smiled confidently. He raised his hand and gently removed his ever-present green hat, then bowed in a mock-serious manner, saying, "Fellow Chaldea members, and you ignorant Heroic Spirits, seeing that you clearly haven't grasped the current situation, I will take pity on you..."

Luo Wei: "Lily!"

"I see!"

"Leave it to me, my dear!"

Before Rafe could finish speaking, Lowe called out to the two who were hugging and rubbing against him, and then—

Within his suddenly contracting pupils, the sound of two gusts of wind accompanied by two energy storms of completely different colors, one gold and one red, swept rapidly toward his location.

"Wait a minute! -- I haven't finished speaking yet!!"

Rafe's shouts quickly grew fainter under the onslaught of the storm, until they finally disappeared without a trace.

When dealing with evil spirits and heretics, there's no need to talk about chivalry or honor; striking first is the best strategy. This Rafe isn't the Rafe he knows; he's clearly the evil personality of the Demon God Floros. So even if he's destroyed, Luo Wei won't be moved in the slightest. As for Black Lancer Artoria and Artoria, they naturally have nothing to say about the mastermind behind the Burning of Humanity, especially since he interrupted their discussion about the distribution of spoils. The two Storm Holy Lances were a serious lesson for Rafe, who showed up without considering the situation.

Just as the two holy spears reached Rafe's eyes, even blowing away his original form, his ever-present green hat, Rafe was about to return to the Temple of Time. However, at the very last moment before his death, the two dazzling holy spear storms vanished as if they had never existed, turning into two different colored breezes that disappeared from the palace.

"What just happened...?!"

This bizarre scene immediately put Black Lancer and Artoria on alert. The two gripped their holy lances tightly and stood guard in front of Lovi.

"It really is dangerous, Floros. I told you not to come out alone. Even if you wanted to catch up with acquaintances from Chaldea, you should have waited until I arrived."

As soon as the deep voice fell, a white-haired man in a red and white robe slowly emerged from the shadows behind Leif. When Nito saw this man, his eyes showed some horror, because this was the guy who killed the Sun King. And when Roman of Chaldea saw this face that was so familiar that he couldn't help but twitch his eyelids.

Ever since he saw his body come out of the city in London, he had been racking his brains in Chaldea trying to figure out what was going on. He finally understood why another Solomon had appeared and realized just how big a mess he had made.

【Goetia】—a special technique he had specially prepared to ensure the stability of humanity, a creation he considered like his own son. Now, after his disappearance, Goetia, along with his seventy-two Demon Pillar minions, had begun causing havoc, leading to the horrific incineration of humanity. However, even knowing Goetia's true nature, Dr. Roman was completely unable to reveal the truth due to his current position and circumstances. He had planned to settle things with Goetia at their final meeting, but…

How did he end up here again? Shouldn't he be perfecting the Human Reason Burning technique at this point in time? Why is he here?!

"As expected of the Storm Goddess, the power of these two holy lances is indeed considerable, however..."

Goetia raised one hand and gathered the power of the Holy Lance that had just been dispersed into her palm. Then, she fired out two beams of light, one gold and one red, which struck Artoria and the Black Lancer's Holy Lance, causing the two to stagger backward.

He said casually, "Minor gods of the mortal realm, you have done your best."

"Just how powerful is this?!"

The two who had been forced back by Goetia stared wide-eyed, especially Black Lancer Artoria, who could clearly sense that the Magic King before her was nearly ten times stronger than when they had encountered him before!

"Too weak. A goddess, an old woman who has lived for over a thousand years, pseudo-servants, and some servants who can't see the situation clearly—you think you can stop the burning of humanity? Don't make me laugh!!"

With just a slight move, Goetia forced the two strongest fighters on this side to retreat, demonstrating an overwhelming level of combat power.

In his initial state, with only the Demon Pillars Barbatos and Floros, he indeed wouldn't have been able to so easily withstand the Holy Lance and repel a goddess and a top-tier Servant. However, the Sun King and the great hero in the desert forced him to reveal the ultimate form of the Beast and even utilize the Temple of Time. This greatly affected the progress of the Humanity Incineration ritual, but he also summoned all seventy-two Demon Pillars to this singularity, displaying their full power. Therefore, he truly didn't take the two Holy Lances seriously.

Furthermore, he has now sealed off the entire Sixth Singularity, prohibiting anyone from entering or leaving until they find Solomon. The Sixth Singularity is in a fixed state, and even if the Lion King fails, he cannot repair it. Now, what Goetia needs to do is simple: get rid of these troublemakers who intend to repair the Singularity, thus eliminating any future threats to Chaldea.

Although this will delay the process of burning away human reason, it doesn't matter.

Solomon was always their top priority. Since the burning of humanity would not change the outcome, they could afford to wait a few months or even a few years.

'So it really happened? The boss is blocking the fountain...'

Seeing Goetia appear, even though he already knew the outcome, Lovi still felt a pang of sorrow for his dear friend who loved to laugh out loud. He had done his best, but Goetia, a complete Beast, was not something a single Servant could deal with, not even Ramses II and Arash together.

Now was not the time for sorrow. Although he didn't know why Goetia had come to block the door, he knew the other party was clearly not from the Fourth Singularity. He casually made a few sarcastic remarks, then left with a disdainful look. While Rowe was still pondering how to fight this guy and get everyone back alive, Lancelot, well-versed in chivalry and the code of chivalry, had already tiptoed quietly towards him, and then—

"—Binding Chains Severed, Overwhelming Lake Light (Aroundight Overload)!!"

Without hesitation, he unleashed his full power with his Noble Phantasm, compressing the energy of the beam cannon entirely onto the Holy Sword. The pale blue light and Lancelot's figure slashed fiercely towards Goetia's head. Lancelot had already witnessed Goetia shatter the Holy Lance; he knew that most of the people present were no match for this creature. Therefore, he planned to use his Noble Phantasm to create an opportunity for the others to escape, while he himself would hold off this seemingly invincible monster.

only--

"Clown, what are you doing?"

In his Beast form, how could Goetia possibly be harmed by Lancelot's mere Noble Phantasm? The other party didn't even have the right to touch him. He raised one hand and firmly gripped Lancelot's sword, then touched Lancelot's armor with his other hand, and an invisible special power began to exert its maximum effect.

"What...what is this?!"

Lancelot felt a force spreading through his body, and his body began to gradually disintegrate.

"Something that can send you back to the Throne of Heroes."

Goetia said calmly, and then the power of the counter-summoning acted directly on Lancelot's spirit origin. In just an instant, Lancelot was transformed into spirit particles in a state of confusion, bewilderment, and without even realizing it, and returned directly to the Throne of Heroes.

"Lancelot!"

"dad!!"

Lancelot's disappearance was so sudden that all the Knights of the Round Table present gasped in shock. However, the power of the counter-summoning was absolutely irreversible, and in the blink of an eye, Lancelot had completely vanished.

"Okay, that's the first one, next up is..."

After defeating the bravest Lancelot, Goetia showed no emotional fluctuation whatsoever. He looked at the many Heroic Spirits present without any difficulty; at this moment, in his eyes, all the Servants present were nothing more than cannon fodder.

Hey!

With a light snap of his fingers, the once pristine white palace floor suddenly cracked open, and numerous thick, hard pillars burst forth from the earth, towering behind Goetia. Each of these thick, hard pillars was a demon god pillar that would require multiple Servants to defeat.

"The Demon God Pillar! Could this person be...?"

Upon seeing the simultaneous appearance of several demonic pillars, even Sanzang, Tawara Tota, and Gahelis, who did not recognize Goetia, understood everything at that moment.

"That's right, he is Solomon!"

Gudako and Mashu were the first to recognize Goetia's true identity, since they had met him in the Fourth Singularity and his power was truly immeasurable.

"The Magic King is actually blocking the door himself... This is going to be a tough battle."

Tawara Tota gripped the bowstring tightly, while Sanzang wore a troubled expression. She whispered, "This is difficult. My spiritual foundation can no longer borrow Master's power to unleash the Tathagata Palm..."

Only Nitocris, who had witnessed Ramses II's battle with Arash, stood in front of Lovi and shouted at Goetia.

"No, he's not the Magic King!"

"Oh? Then who do you think I am?"

Goetia looked at Nitocris with great interest.

"Beast! It's the Beast, the Sun King! He has recognized you!"

beast!

—Beast?!

Upon hearing this title, Sanzang, Saber Alter, and all the other Servants present changed their expressions, even more horrified than when they first saw the Magus King. Clearly, as top-tier Servants, they understood perfectly what this term meant.

What is a beast?

Only Ritsuka and Mashu were hearing this special title for the first time.

"So that's how it is. So there was a little mouse like you among those spying on the battlefield back then..."

Goetia did not deny it, but instead glanced at Nitocris thoughtfully.

For him, it didn't matter whether his identity was exposed or not. Everyone in the Sixth Singularity was going to die today, and the burning of humanity would inevitably be completed.

In the past, he would have felt that taking matters into his own hands would be beneath him and pointless, playing a cat-and-mouse game with Chaldea and these foolish Heroic Spirits who couldn't see the bigger picture. But now—there's no need for that anymore; let's just get rid of them all.

“I am Solomon, but not the Solomon you know. I am not as indifferent as he was. I will use my hands to create a new one…”

"Enough, Goetia..."

However, just as Goetia was about to announce his grand plan to create a new world, Lovi gently pushed Nitocris and Mash aside and slowly walked out. Under these circumstances, and given that King Hassan would inevitably lose if he fought Goetia in his complete form, and the singularity was also sealed off, even if he wanted Roman to come and trade one for one with this guy, it wouldn't be possible. Therefore, he had to think of other ways, so he decided to play a big game with Goetia in his own way.

"Huh? Who are you? How do you know my name? And why can't I see you?"

When Goetia saw Lovi, a human he had not noticed before, appear and call him by name, he suddenly felt a surge of interest.

—I'm your grandpa!

At this moment, Luo Wei was furious. Looking at Goetia, who had suddenly appeared just before he was about to go home and start his happy life, he really wanted to punch this ungrateful guy. However, he knew that he had to suppress his anger and put on a compassionate appearance, not letting his emotions show at all. After all, in Goetia's mind, Solomon was an empty and numb figure.

We must play our part well, we must learn well, because whether or not everyone can survive depends on this one time.

As we all know, Rafe is a well-known StarCraft player. He spent so many years with Roman but didn't recognize Solomon. Most of the other Demon Pillars' eyes are just decorations. The evidence is that no matter how many times you refresh them, they don't drop Tear Stones. As a composite, Goetia must be completely blind, so he has to go for a big one.

Gently pushing Mashu, Nitocris, and Lovi aside, and stopping Artoria, Black Lancer Alter stepped forward to help. After all, the three were his wives, and he still had to save humanity. Naturally, he couldn't abandon any of them. This show could only be performed by himself.

Roman, who was anxiously pacing around Chaldea, had hope rekindled when he saw Lovi step forward.

Yes, if a beast appears, the Counter will definitely send out Grand Servants or use special countermeasures. This singularity has a Grand Assassin and a Holy Child, clearly prepared by the Counter to deal with the Goetia. They might even possess a secret weapon capable of breaking through the impasse!

At this moment, Roman, unable to provide support, could only pray that Lovi would find a way to deal with Goetia.

"Alright, Lily, Nito, leave the rest to me."

Although they didn't know what Luo Wei wanted to do, as lovers, they naturally trusted him unconditionally. After all, they were good at fighting, but Luo Wei was definitely stronger in terms of thinking and intelligence. However, their trust was not unconditional. At this moment, they all prepared their Noble Phantasms. If Goetia really made an unexpected move, they would protect Luo Wei even if it meant risking their lives.

"Oh, human, what do you want to do?"

Goetia didn't make a move. Instead, she looked at the approaching Lovi with a mocking smile, wanting to see what tricks this invisible human was up to.

However, when he allowed Lovi to slowly extend his fingers toward his neck and take out the golden ring from his own world from the necklace inside his clothes, Goetia seemed to sense something special and realized that something was wrong.

"This is……?"

However, Loewy continued to approach Goetia step by step, slowly revealing some of Chaldea's hidden secrets as he went.

"Long ago, the monarch of the Celestial Sciences wanted to build Chaldea for some special reason, so he participated in the Holy Grail War and won. However, he concealed the fact that he had won."

As Lo Wei strode forward and spoke softly, Roman, far away in the command room, got goosebumps. He hadn't expected that what he and Maris Billy had done would be so famous, that even the holy sons of other worlds knew so much about it!

"After his victory, he did not make any wish to reach the source and exhaust the truth, but instead asked for a large sum of money as funding for the construction of Chaldea."

Not only Roman, but also Getia, who possessed that memory, had a bad feeling at this moment. Looking at Luo Wei's confident steps as he approached, and thinking about the fact that he could not see his past or future, Getia's eyes trembled involuntarily.

"Who...who are you?!"

This was the first time Goetia had shown any sign of horror.

"And the Servant who helped him win also made a wish after the Holy Grail War, which was to become human. And not just to gain a physical body, but to give up everything that a Heroic Spirit possesses—Noble Phantasms, wisdom, grace, and countless achievements—to be reborn, to live in this world that does not belong to them, and to have a new life. This is what led to the continuous occurrence of so many events."

As he spoke, Lowe slowly opened his hand in front of Goetia, revealing a golden ring that shone brightly in his palm. Upon seeing this ring, Goetia was completely flustered, and all his previous confidence vanished in an instant.

"And that Servant was the first Servant summoned before the establishment of Chaldea, which was me, a puppet who lived my whole life in the hands of the gods, Solomon."

Gently putting on the ring, Luo Wei gritted his teeth and used his innate skill [Apocalypse] to ask the person above for some emergency effects.

This time, the pigeon, which was usually stingy and unwilling to even offer a blessing, seemed to have changed its nature. It decisively sent down a ray of holy light to envelop Lovi, illuminating him with a sacred atmosphere from heaven. Then, Lovi used magic to drape himself in a magnificent royal robe similar to the one worn by Goetia.

"This, this... how is this possible!?"

Luo Wei stepped forward, the golden halo and the golden feathers floating around him making him appear incredibly holy. Combined with his compassionate and beautiful smile, the scene was simply breathtaking. He then extended his palm towards Goetia in front of him and slowly spoke.
