At this moment, "Irisviel" could no longer be seen in her basic human form, and the wounds on her body had not recovered. It seemed that her energy had been exhausted.
"Alas, I finally found a punching bag that I can put aside my morals and beat, but I didn't expect it to be so hard to beat..."
A trace of disappointment flashed across Xueyue's eyes. She turned around and looked around, confirming that there was no one around.
A shadow spread out from her lower abdomen, and a huge crack appeared from it, swallowing up the body of [All the Evil in This World].
The huge mouth quickly disappeared, along with the tentacles extending outward from Xueyue's body. This appearance was too ominous, and Xueyue did not want to show it if possible.
Chapter 71 BB's Visit
With the end of Xueyue's battle, it also means the end of the Fourth Holy Grail War.
Xueyue walked towards the new capital which was half destroyed by the black mud, where the remaining people had already gathered.
"Sister Xue! Are you okay?" Abigail, who had changed back into her black dress, flew over as soon as she saw Xue Yue.
"Little idiot, how could anything happen to me? Your sister Xue is super strong!"
Xueyue smiled and wiped away the tears from Abigail's eyes, which were not sure whether they were tears of joy or worry.
"Megs, how's Abi-chan doing?"
"It's okay. At least, she has grown up a little."
Hearing Bubble's pertinent evaluation, Xueyue nodded, rubbed Abigail's little head as encouragement, and then turned her eyes to Emiya Kiritsugu standing beside her.
In Emiya Kiritsugu's arms was a boy with short red hair, with a look of redemption on his face. This was the only person he had rescued from this man-made hell, while Irisviel beside him was performing healing magic, and the boy's condition had obviously improved a lot.
Of course Xueyue recognized that young man. Should we say that this is also a part of fate? That young man will definitely stir up a storm many years later.
Since [All the Evil in This World] has been deactivated by Xue Yue, the curse that Emiya Kiritsugu originally suffered naturally no longer exists. However, given Emiya Kiritsugu's current situation, Xue Yue's "eyes" have seen through him, and with the new and old injuries stacked up, he doesn't have much time left.
"Where will you go next, Emiya Kiritsugu?"
Xueyue asked.
"Adopt this child. He is an innocent person involved in this war. I can't just ignore him. Then, I might travel around the world and continue to prevent such things (Holy Grail War) from happening..."
It is impossible to expect Emiya Kiritsugu to completely change his style of doing things, but I believe that after this incident, he will try his best to avoid using simple and crude methods to "kill a few and save many."
"I originally thought that you would return to the Einzbern family. After all, your daughter is still there, right?"
"We, who failed to bring back the Holy Grail, have been abandoned by the Einzbern family. We can no longer go back."
Irisviel smiled bitterly. As an android, she knew better than anyone what decision the Einzbern family would make. As a mother, she couldn't help but feel heartbroken when she thought of her daughter's destined fate in the future, but she couldn't show it at this moment.
"Maybe this is the last time we meet, and at the end, I want to make one last deal with you."
Xueyue said,
"I need to take your daughter away - Illyasviel von Einzbern. Of course, I will be responsible for teaching her and avoiding her fate as a homunculus. As a condition, I will help you solve the problem of Einzbern's pursuit of you."
Irisviel almost thought she had heard wrongly. It wasn't that the deal was so unfair. On the contrary, the deal was too good, to the point that Irisviel even thought she was dreaming.
Alice did not ask Xueyue how to get to where Illya was. After all, Xueyue's magic was such that as long as she said so, she could do it. As for whether Illya would be treated unfairly, considering Xueyue's character, it was not a problem to worry about.
After all, neither she nor Emiya Kiritsugu can contact Illya at the moment, so instead of letting the Einzbern family use Illya as a tool, it would be better to place their hopes on Xueyue.
Naturally, there was not much to worry about, and Alice quickly agreed to this "deal".
"Well, the contract is made, and I will not break it."
Although the so-called restrictions on the soul in the contract would not have much effect on Xueyue, she would not violate such an agreement, not to mention that this was something she would do anyway.
-------------------------------------
After saying a brief goodbye to Emiya Kiritsugu and Irisviel, Xueyue, Paopao, and Abigail returned to their residence, where a purple-haired girl was waiting at the door.
That was Sakura Matou. Normally, due to her inner reasons, she would stay in the room prepared by Xueyue and never go out. But now, for the first time ever, she took the initiative to wait for everyone's return at the door.
Xueyue seemed to have known about this abnormal phenomenon for a long time and asked "Matou Sakura":
"You're not here to set off victory fireworks for us, are you, BB dear?"
"As expected of you, you are my senior. You recognized me right away. I am very happy~"
With a completely different tone and expression from the original Matou Sakura, "Matou Sakura" laughed like a little devil.
"Ms. Naya did ask me to come and congratulate Ms. Xueyue and Ms. Yog-Sothoth for achieving a perfect clearance~"
"Who needs that guy's congratulations..." Bubble curled his lips, looking very disdainful.
"Also~Also~ Naya-sama wants to borrow Sakura to train her~ She wants her to become a lady like BB~"
"..."
Xueyue was speechless. Everyone in the universe knows that you, Nyarlathotep, are recognized as the troublemaker. You must be in need of new toys. If Matou Sakura really goes to your place, it would be like escaping from a dragon's den and falling into a tiger's den.
"Naija and BB, which of you has ever been associated with the word 'lady'?"
Facing Bubble's merciless complaints, BB kept a businesslike smile and didn't respond (or maybe he didn't dare to respond), and continued to speak half-incitingly:
"This may be a difficult decision. Master Nayako will be waiting for you in that world. I believe you will change your mind once you get there."
"Yeah, yeah, that's it. I'll go find her then. You can go now."
Xueyue answered perfunctorily. After all, she really wanted to settle the score with Nayako, and she had to go find her. However, there were still some things in this world that needed to be tied up.
BB's spirit left, and Sakura Matou's body fell down. Abigail supported her and she opened her dazed eyes after a while.
"Why...am I here?"
"Maybe he was sleepwalking?"
Xueyue smiled and teased,
"But I woke up just in time. The sun is out and the nightmare should be over."
Xueyue's words seemed to have a hidden meaning.
On the eastern horizon, the sun is slowly rising, bringing the dawn of a new day.
Chapter 72 Einzbern
The new day brought bright sunshine, but some people could no longer see such a accustomed view.
All the TV channels were reporting the news of the fire in Fuyuki Shinto last night. Looking at the miserable scene of the burned land on TV, Waver couldn't help but feel ashamed.
The fire that occurred near the Fuyuki Civic Hall was undoubtedly caused by the aftermath of the Holy Grail War. Although it was unclear whether it was the remaining Masters or the Servant who caused this tragedy, if Rider and I were still there at that time, perhaps we could have prevented it from happening.
Although logically this had nothing to do with Waver, he still found it difficult to suppress his regret.
But there will never be a similar tragedy again. Although it ended in the worst way, strange incidents threatening Fuyuki will never happen again. The Fourth Holy Grail War, which sacrificed countless innocent people, came to an end last night.
Recalling the tragic situation at that time, he even felt that it was a miracle that he was still alive.
Weber also made a decision on his next itinerary.
In short, go travel, see the outside world, see where he has been, and see where he has not been.
-------------------------------------
Outside Einzbern Castle in Germany.
Two white-haired girls walked on the snow. The blizzard and multiple magic barriers had no effect on them at all.
Arriving at the gathering place of the Einzbern family, which had been ravaged by the years but still maintained its splendor, Xueyue, who was walking in front, did not knock on the door that looked very heavy, but chose a more direct way.
He raised his leg, turned his body, and did a beautiful roundhouse kick which hit the classical gate.
The ancient door let out a teeth-grinding groan, then slowly opened inward.
Although Xueyue had said before, "In order to appear polite, we didn't need to teleport directly to the other party's house," but did kicking the door at this moment really have anything to do with "politeness"...
The door slowly opened, revealing the castle's hall. The empty hall was obviously cleaned daily and did not look desolate at all.
Just after taking a few steps in, a silver-white magic circle formed under Xueyue and Paopao's feet, covering the two of them. At the same time, dozens of magic arrows formed above the hall and shot towards the two of them rapidly.
There is no doubt that this is a trap set up indoors to prevent illegal intruders. Magic arrows of this size are enough to kill ordinary magicians in seconds. Even the monarch of the Clock Tower would have a headache here.
However, Xueyue and Paopao seemed to completely ignore the magic confinement circle under their feet and the magic arrows flying towards their heads.
Bubble tapped her toes lightly, and the silver-white magic circle collapsed with the sound of shattering glass.
Less than a second after the magic arrows were shot out, the shadow under Xueyue's feet suddenly jumped up and turned into dozens of spikes, smashing all the magic arrows.
Xueyue did not stop and walked straight to the back of the hall, where a white-haired old man appeared out of nowhere.
"It seems that the Einzbern family's response is not as delicious as the dessert before the meal~"
"You are neither a magician nor a sorcerer. What is your purpose here?"
Ahad, the current nominal "patriarch" of the Einzbern family, asked in a flat tone.
"I will take Illyasviel von Einzbern away from here. Of course, in exchange, I will give you a way to truly reproduce the Third Law."
The Einzbern family was originally a workshop established by the disciples of a magician who had realized the third magic. After a long time, only the self-management of the androids remained. "Jubstacheit" was an artificial intelligence created by the disciples of the third magician to control the castle's core. It was also the father of all androids created by Einzbern. The Ahad in front of Xueyue now was the eighth-generation humanoid terminal made by Jubstacheit.
It was also because of this that Xueyue did not intend to use too many negotiation tactics, because it was meaningless, and the conditions she proposed would definitely not be rejected by the other party.
The ultimate goal of the Einzbern family is to find a way to stably reproduce the Third Law, and Illyasviel is the android with the highest technical level in the Einzbern family. If Illya, the highest masterpiece sent out in the next Holy Grail War, also fails, Eubusta Kuhaid will give up the Greater Holy Grail and turn off his own power.
"So, how do you prove it, uninvited guest?"
"You can call me Xueyue. As for the proof, that's easy~"
Xueyue took the parchment handed over by Bubble, which was filled with densely written magic language.
"I can give you some time to verify the feasibility."
Ahad nodded slightly, and a maid appeared. She respectfully took the stack of parchment from Xueyue's hand with both hands, and then left.
Ahad took Xueyue and Paopao to a reception room and waited for the results of the deduction.
Xueyue was not worried about their verification at all. After all, that was indeed the actual way to realize the third magic. The third magic, after all, was the materialization of the soul, the realization of true immortality. It was also what the Holy Grail War really wanted to achieve, something called "Grail of Heaven".
For Xueyue, this kind of thing only requires a detour to achieve, and for Bubble, it is something that can be done easily.
If the Einzbern family knew that the true form of this "little girl" in front of them was the ultimate knowledge, an existence equal to or even higher than the so-called "Source", their expressions would definitely be very interesting...
It's not like Xueyue hasn't thought about this before, but now is not the right time. Although Bubble himself doesn't care, Xueyue doesn't want to start a storm that will overturn the magic world too early. Well, only before those guys from the Clock Tower come and cause trouble.
Although the Einzbern family is completely inferior to Xueyue in terms of knowledge, they are still a magic family with a long history. After just over ten minutes, they verified the feasibility of the method proposed by Xueyue.
"Well then, the deal is done. You can take Illyasviel von Einzbern with you."
Ahad's flat voice sounded, and the maid led in a girl who looked about eight years old, with white hair and red eyes, and placed her small hand in Xueyue's.
Chapter 73 Illya
For the Einzbern family, even if Illya is their greatest masterpiece, in the final analysis, it is just to find the most likely "tool" to succeed on the road to the Third Law. Now that the "answer" has been obtained, there is naturally nothing to regret in giving Illya as a "tool" to others.
"But sir, I don't understand why you need her since you already have the key to the path of truth?"
This is also the doubt of Yubusta Kuhaid. In his view, it is like a person who owns a treasure house looking for a clumsy and mismatched key.
"To you, she is really just a 'tool', but to me, she is a person and a commitment that I need to fulfill."
Xueyue bent down, picked up Illya like a princess, and regardless of Illya's subconscious exclamation, she left towards the castle gate.
(Is it really possible to hand over the Third Law to them so easily?)
A cold voice sounded in Xueyue's mind.
Xueyue was slightly surprised, as if she was trying to recall the source of the sound, then she turned to Paopao and asked:
"Didn't you block the communication between the two inhibitors?"
Bubble just shrugged: "They don't dare to bother me, so I don't bother to pay attention to them."
"Oh, then just block this junk message~"
Xueyue blocked it with an indifferent tone.
"Hey, eh, wait a minute, wait a minute!"
