"First, let's start from where you are now. This is the inner side of the world, or the inner shore of the sea, which is easier to understand?"

 "The so-called inner sea of ​​stars, right? We can skip this part. I'm very familiar with it."

 "Huh? Is that so?"

 The short claws gently scratched the hard scales on the body. Fafnir was silent for a moment before continuing to speak.

 "For some reason, the Holy Grail was destroyed. I moved the Holy Grail, which would affect humanity, to the inner side of the world. However, there is a more critical problem—"

 Fafnir slightly lengthened his voice, trying to make his words sound as serious as possible.

 “There’s nothing

 Do, but

 453

 It's as if the Greater Holy Grail is broken..."

 As Fujimaru Ritsuka listened to Fafnir's words, his eyes gradually became sharper.

 If she remembered correctly... Sieg's Holy Grail had never said anything like "destroyed"...

 "Something must have happened, right? After all, that's what the prisoners said."

 "My memories are a bit hazy, so I apologize. However, it seems that a Holy Grail War took place inside the destroyed Greater Holy Grail."

 His pupils shrank suddenly, and the hand holding the badge subconsciously exerted force.

 "Yes, within the Greater Holy Grail, although on a smaller scale, a Holy Grail War has indeed been taking place. Although I can only view the statistics, the number of battles has exceeded ten thousand. Furthermore, my control over the Greater Holy Grail is constantly decreasing."

 "Then, if your control value is reset to zero, something will happen that affects the outside world, right?"

 Just by relying on a one-sided description, one can summarize what will happen next, that is, the composure of Ritsuka Fujimaru as the last Master of the older generation of humans.

 "That's right, so..."

 "No problem. We can't just sit back and do nothing when something happens, let alone a crisis that threatens the world."

 "Thank you so much!!!"

 The voice that had been deliberately suppressed was now broken by the joyful emotion.

 "Eardrums want-want-want...?"

 Ritsuka Fujimaru covered his ears and yelled loudly.

 The light blue light turned into a protective shield that completely isolated Fujimaru Ritsuka from the evil dragon's sonic attack, saving her extremely fragile eardrums.

 "Sorry... I got so excited that I forgot to control the volume..."

 There was a hint of apology on Fafnir's face, at least Fujimaru Ritsuka could feel that it was an apologetic look.

 "Cough cough..."

 Fafnir coughed lightly a few times, and his tone became serious and solemn again.

 "Then I beg you once again, could you please sit on my back and join me in invading the interior of the Greater Holy Grail?"

 "I see! Are they the Dragoons?!"

 Ritsuka Fujimaru climbed onto Fafnir's back while speaking in an excited tone.

 "Unfortunately, that doesn't seem to be what Dragoon meant. But it sounds pretty good..."

 The black wings slowly stretched out, and the strong airflow accompanied by the gently flapping wings continuously stirred up the dust on the ground.

 "Find a suitable scale and hold on tight. What's about to begin is flying, which I haven't experienced in over a decade!"

 Pitch-black wings tore through the sky, and a giant black dragon soared through the sky accompanied by azure flashes, flapping its wings towards the unreachable other side, towards the inner side of the Holy Grail.

 Sound, temperature, airflow, everything was completely ignored.

 The maneuverability and acceleration capabilities are completely inconsistent with the body size.

 only...

 The speed is much slower than Sieg...

 The darkness continued to erode the sea surface, accompanied by Fafnir's acceleration again and again.

 The Holy Grail, with its shell badly tattered, began to emit a dazzling light, enveloping Fujimaru Ritsuka and Fafnir.

 The next second, the evil dragon and the girl disappeared without a trace, leaving behind only the empty surroundings and the Holy Grail emitting a strange light.

 "Tap...tap..."

 As the footsteps slowly sounded, the red dragon pupils gradually rose.

 The magic circuit began to gradually spread along the outer shell of the Holy Grail.

 -

 Interlude: 7. His Name is Sieg

 The thick clouds were knocked apart by the huge body, and the blade-like airflow shattered the sky.

 The bright moonlight fell on the ground in the distance, and the silent town appeared in the eyes of Fujimaru Ritsuka and Fafnir like an extremely exquisite model.

 "Just as expected, not only did they recreate Tuliphas, but they also recreated the Red Assassin's Hanging Gardens? What on earth is the caster trying to achieve by recreating the world so precisely?"

 As Fujimaru Ritsuka listened to Fafnir's words, his brows furrowed deeper and deeper at an angle that no one could see.

 "Tulipas, I think it's a small city in Romania?"

 "Yes, this is also the place where the Holy Grail War took place. Even the Dragon Fang Soldiers and Golems were recreated here, right?"

 As Fujimaru Ritsuka listened to Fafnir's words, he narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at the densely packed black spots wriggling like a swarm of ants on the plain outside Tulipas.

 "This level is nothing, just burn it in one go."

 As Fafnir spoke, the blue lines on his chest began to grow brighter.

 Sparks began to emerge from the tightly closed mouth, and dazzling light faintly shone through the gaps between the scales and teeth.

 Several dragon breaths like light bullets were fired from Fafnir's mouth and fell directly into the crowd fighting fiercely on the ground.

 Even if it is far

 In the sky

 454

 Even in the air, Fujimaru Ritsuka could still feel the terrifying temperature very clearly.

 The earth instantly turned into a surging pool of magma, and the flying sparks rose to the height where she was now.

 Be it the puppets or the dragon-tooth soldiers, everything had already been reduced to ashes under this terrifying high temperature.

 The sky was lit up with orange-red flames.

 "Amazing..."

 This was different from the previous time when Mashu was directly pressed behind the shield and could only feel it through her ears and body.

 The impact of only seeing the result of destruction without seeing the process is completely different from the impact of witnessing the destruction of everything with your own eyes.

 "Is that so? I'm truly honored. Even though it's not a skill I've acquired through practice, it's still nice to hear compliments."

 There was a hint of nervousness in Fafnir's mouth.

 "The first thing to do, then, is to land—"

 Before he finished speaking, two green arrows streaked across the night sky like shooting stars.

 Now that the Servants have reappeared, the war is of course continuing.

 The biggest problem would be if no one paid attention to the noise caused by the dragon breath bomb.

 The blue arrow crossed the long distance with unmatched speed, brushed past Fafnir and flew directly above him.

 Like thick dark clouds emitting lightning, azure light began to emanate continuously from the clouds above the two.

 His pupils suddenly shrank, and the scales all over his body exploded, wrapping Fujimaru Ritsuka on his back layer by layer.

 Like a rainstorm, blue arrows kept bombarding Fafnir.

 "Gu—Is there no explanation at all?"

 The night sky was suddenly illuminated, the sun slowly rose from the ground, and a blow that could even destroy gods burst out from the golden spear.

 The membrane on the wings was torn apart completely and easily.

 The hard scales had long lost their original smooth appearance and turned extremely charred.

 "Sorry, I'm about to fall!"

 As Fafnir spoke, he twisted his body forcefully in the air, moving Fujimaru Ritsuka from his back to his claws and holding her tightly.

 The huge body fell into the forest, and the shock wave it caused uprooted the surrounding trees and blew them away.

 The entire ground was shaking continuously.

 "Sun Wheel, submitting to death (vasavi shakti)... is it still a bit of a stretch?"

 Slowly loosening his claws to let Fujimaru Ritsuka out, Fafnir looked back at his broken wings.

 Except for the relatively hard bones and scales, the rest of the body is completely destroyed, just like the tattered sails on the so-called ghost ship.

 "I'm sorry, my wings are completely shattered. I definitely won't be able to fly anytime soon. This is beyond my expectations. I'm really sorry..."

 "Are you ok?"

 Ritsuka Fujimaru blinked and subconsciously clenched the badge on his chest.

 "Although I can't fly anymore, I still have some fighting power. At least I can definitely guarantee that I can get you out of this forest safely—"

 A flash of light appeared in the dark woods.

 "It seems to be coming!"

 "Sorry, this seems a bit difficult. After all, I can't run fast in this posture, so..."

 As Fafnir spoke, he stretched out his claws and directly grasped Fujimaru Ritsuka.

 "I'll buy time, and you take the opportunity to escape. In any case, escape to that fortress first!"

 In order to win, some people have to lose.

 If there is no chance of winning, you must create one.

 He was more or less confident in the power of this posture, so...

 Fujimaru Ritsuka was gently thrown into the air and far away.

 "Even though I don't know your name, and I don't have the slightest memory of your existence, I believe you must be there, right?"

 "I leave my chances of winning in your hands."

 If it was just a human falling from a height, it wouldn't cause such a big commotion.

 So, the so-called you whom I met, the you who cannot exist in my memory, is only this time.

 "please."

 Dazzling flashes continued to gather together in Fujimaru Ritsuka's incredulous eyes.

 Flames shot out continuously into the sky, and the dense forest was completely burned to ashes in an instant.

 The evil dragon, unable to soar in the sky, roared loudly, venting its power without reservation towards the enemies in the distance and the enemies nearby, attracting everyone's attention.

 A huge cross star rose up in the sky, spinning, and a rain of blue arrows poured down.

 The sun and the sword light.

 Countless treasures bombarded the evil dragon continuously.

 The stiff scales had already completely shattered, and the huge body was covered with wounds and blood.

 "The last hope is always to witness the departure of

 ...I

 455

 I think I understand what this sentence means..."

 His pupils gradually dimmed as he stared silently at the direction where Fujimaru Ritsuka was thrown.
