And what path should I take?
Confused, Shiomi closed her eyes.
"Just embark on the journey, don't linger here. When we need to meet, you and I will naturally meet again. Let's meet at that time."
Before leaving the Kingdom of Shadows, as I said goodbye to my master, her last words came to my ears.
At that time, immersed in the joy and sadness of leaving the army, Xi Jian, who had no time to think deeply, fell into thinking again at this moment.
If my journey really has any special meaning...
"Shiomi!"
Noticing that he was falling without any preparation, Altria, who had already landed, realized that something was wrong and rushed over to catch Shiomi.
When he came to his senses, he realized that he had forgotten this and almost got into trouble.
"Sorry for causing you any trouble."
Signaling to Altria to put him down, Shiomi regained his footing.
“What a brilliant counterattack.”
Iskandar drove a bullock cart to their side, and behind him were the cheers of the soldiers who had not yet fallen, celebrating this extraordinary victory for them.
"No, it's only because of the two of you working together that things can go so smoothly." Xijian took a deep breath and calmed himself down.
"The Hero King who stood in our way has disappeared. Now, there is only one thing left." Altria clenched her left hand.
The lost scabbard was once again in her hands, but she no longer needed to step onto such a battlefield a second time.
Perhaps this is why the scabbard was lost in the first place.
Perhaps as early as that time, fate had already hinted that Altria Pendragon should give up, but she did not care and instead regarded this incident as a small setback.
"Then let us, as kings, help you witness the end of this Holy Grail War." Iskandar said, "Although this expedition is a bit regrettable, it was also a great experience."
He raised his hand, and as the soldiers saluted, the inherent barrier gradually faded away.
What appeared before my eyes was Ryudo Temple, which was still emitting an ominous phosphorescent glow.
"Yes, she is still waiting for me..."
Shiomi turned around and walked towards the back of Ryudo Temple.
Chapter 85: Apparition
Morgan slowly landed on the platform and reunited with Irisviel and Emiya Kiritsugu, and glanced around the platform with his blue eyes.
All the Assassins had been killed and turned into puddles of black mud. Under the influence of the forcibly activated Holy Grail, they gathered together and surrounded the earthen platform that Morgan had raised like a swamp.
She glanced at the Command Seal on the back of her hand. She had just created five clones, but had used up one to make up for the lack of magic power.
Originally, with Shiomi's magic power supply and his own extraordinary magic power level, Morgan's many battles and magic could easily sustain the consumption.
But this time, Shiomi's demon was a little more restrained. Morgan knew without thinking that he must have used all his strength to fight Gilgamesh.
Having said that, Morgan looked at his clone which was gradually disappearing.
If these clones were to continue to be maintained, the magical resources of the second Command Spell would have to be consumed.
The Assassin has been destroyed, so there is no need to continue wasting this magic power.
The only surprising thing was that the priest was exceptionally resilient.
Although Morgan, in order to avoid contact with the black mud, was devoured by the forcibly activated Holy Grail as a mana resource, allowing Kirei to take the initiative in the attack, the man was only slightly shot and one of his arms was crippled by Kiritsugu's bullet, but he was not to the point of being unable to move.
At this moment, the hole that appeared in the sky suddenly burst out with a larger stream of dark matter, pouring into the lake of Ryudo Temple.
The originally clear lake water has become turbid, and the mist rising from the lake surface indicates that the water temperature has risen to the point of being almost boiling.
“Oh…” Kirei looked back at the empty hole in the sky and sighed nonchalantly, “It looks like the King of Heroes has also been defeated.”
This man showed no reluctance or regret for his companions being killed; he simply accepted the fact.
"You probably don't know this, but Archer's soul mass is more than three times that of an ordinary Servant." Kirei laughed happily, "With such a huge amount of soul converted into magic power, the activation of the Holy Grail is unstoppable."
Morgan raised her eyebrows slightly, and she slowly raised her hand, "So what? It's just some exquisite magic rituals. There are naturally different ways to deal with different stages. But before that, you won't have a chance to see it."
Morgan gathered the magic light in his hands, intending to kill Kotomine Kirei with one blow, and then slowly resolve the current abnormal situation of the Holy Grail.
Irisviel behind him suddenly gasped.
Morgan also immediately stopped performing the magic in his hand.
Morgan saw the same thing that Irisviel saw.
A silver-haired woman in a black ceremonial dress slowly emerged from the Holy Grail. The hands growing out of the twisted flesh around her danced strangely, as if they wanted to touch the woman, or as if they wanted to worship her.
"Is that the cornerstone of the Holy Grail..."
Kirei also turned around and looked at the woman.
Kiritsugu, who was standing on the platform, saw this and asked his wife in shock, "Airi, what on earth is that thing——"
“…Justisia Rizleci…” Alice looked at the woman with the same face as her in horror and slowly said the name.
If it was the manifestation of the Holy Grail, there was only one possibility.
Justeza Ritzleich von Einzbern.
The former head of the Einzbern clan sacrificed his life to plan the Holy Grail War, but his remaining consciousness still remains in the Greater Holy Grail.
Irisviel is just an Einzbern who was created in the image of Justisia in order to restore Justisia's functions to the greatest extent.
"The huge magic circuit left in the big hole was left by the android named Justisa." Morgan said, looking at the figure in the black dress from afar.
The dark figure of Justisa slowly floated forward, and finally landed next to Kotomine Kirei.
"You want to awaken me with just four servants' souls? It's totally inadequate as a sacrifice." She smiled evilly and coldly. "As the supervisor of the Holy Church, this is all you can do."
Kirei was about to speak, but he found that his strength was quickly drained away. He lowered his head in astonishment.
The hand that grew out of the lake pierced through his chest from behind without him noticing. The pale and nimble hand was squeezing his heart.
Whoosh——
The moment his hand was pulled away, Kirei's body fell backwards like a kite with a broken string, and rolled into the lake shrouded in mist.
Watching the hand with the heart retracting into the black mud, Irisviel covered her mouth, suppressing the instinctive urge to vomit.
Kotomine Kirei, whom they regarded as their greatest enemy, was ultimately killed by the thing he had awakened.
"Fresh hearts taste really good, but it's not enough, it's not enough!"
Justisa showed a crazy smile and licked her lips, as if she had just enjoyed a supreme delicacy.
She stared at Morgan with lustful eyes.
Since it is a servant that follows the principles of the Holy Grail, the Holy Grail will naturally desire Morgan's existence.
"You're not satisfied with devouring the Servants and the Masters. You want to devour me too?" Morgan didn't intend to sit there and wait for death. She rose from the platform again and floated high in the sky.
Having said that, as a Servant, Morgan has an absolutely unfavorable compatibility. Even if he is just touched, he will be forcibly swallowed and recovered to be used as fuel for the activation of the Holy Grail.
Therefore, you should first create distance and use magic to launch a devastating attack from a distance.
However, Morgan immediately realized that he had miscalculated. The personality revealed by this abnormal Holy Grail was not simply a vicious personality.
As if crossing the barriers of time and space, Justisa appeared in front of Morgan at the same time as she took off.
"You look like you'd taste great, so just be my sacrifice."
When Justisa said this, she had already stretched out her hand and was about to touch Morgan's heart.
It was too late. No matter whether he used magic or Command Spells to transfer himself, it was too late.
There are no signs, no flaws, and you can reach anywhere just like taking a walk.
As an absolute predator, Justisa is eating without any scruples after awakening, filling the seven servant souls needed for the Holy Grail.
There is always a way out. Red lightning flashed between Morgan and Yustisa, cutting off Yustisa's arm, and black blood spilled.
In less than a second, the witch was hugged by the shoulders by a familiar figure and left Justisa at the fastest speed.
Chapter 86: End
Morgan looked at Xi Jian Tianxi, who was covered in wounds, in astonishment.
This man, who had just finished an arduous battle, didn't even have time to catch his breath before rushing to her side.
Just like any time in the past.
He slid on the ground for several meters holding Morgan before slowly standing still and looking at Justisa in the sky.
The runes triggered a violent explosion, sweeping Justisa in as well.
"It seems that it has no effect."
Morgan watched Justisa slowly leave in the flames and float onto the black mud.
The burns from the explosion were gradually disappearing from the body.
"But at least one thing has been clarified." Xi Jian hugged Morgan tightly, squatted slightly, and exerted all his strength.
When the hands stretched out from the surrounding black mud pounced on him, he leaped up and landed on the top of the tallest tree nearby.
"It seems that that kind of instant teleportation cannot be used continuously." He narrowed his eyes slightly and stared at Yustisa, "It seems that there is a special ability with interval time..."
Morgan nodded in agreement, "Then at least put me down first?"
"I'm afraid not yet." Xi Jian smiled bitterly, "That thing knows your value very well, and will do everything it can to devour you... I will never allow it."
Hearing him say this, Morgan looked behind Shiomi's shoulders and neck, and noticed that there were several holes on his clothes that had just been burned and were still smoking, and the skin underneath was also burned.
It was obvious that when he had just rescued her, he had used his body to block the splashes from Justisa's severed hand.
"Then you will be responsible for movement and defense, and I will be responsible for attack." Morgan put away the magic gun and opened his palm.
Fortunately, they were not the only ones facing Justisa.
Altria and the other three also followed Shiomi's footsteps and rushed here.
However, Irisviel reminded the two servants not to touch the dark things by the lake, otherwise they, the only ones left, would be contaminated or even manipulated.
"No, since that thing can only contaminate Servants, I will take the lead."
Shiomi jumped up again, avoiding Justissa's rough attack, and landed next to Altria and the others.
"Don't worry about this, Kiritsugu and I are fine, just do your thing!" Irisviel was being protected by Kiritsugu Tsubasa.
He probably also planned that if the situation became urgent, he would risk being stained by the black mud under the platform just to get Ellie to a safe area.
"But we can tell at a glance that thing is the natural enemy of us Servants." Iskandar really wanted to help, but at a time like this, not being swallowed by the Holy Grail was the greatest help he could offer.
Shiomi gently put Morgan on the ground, stretched out his hand, and the red spear that cut off Justisa's arm flew back into his palm.
"Then just don't touch these things on the ground."
He stretched out his hand and drew it in the air. Eighteen runes flashed by. Starting from under Shiomi's feet, thick ice quickly covered the ground around Ryudo Temple Lake. Even the lake surface, which had begun to show signs of boiling due to magic power, was frozen.
Even the movement of the Holy Grail stopped for a moment.
"Don't let that guy touch you, or you'll be done for." Xi Jian pretended to be relaxed and reminded everyone, and then added, "The ice is very slippery, be careful!"
After saying that, Xi Jian rushed out like a cannonball.
"Being clever!"
Although Yustisa was prevented from "eating" by Shiomi, she did not intend to give up.
"You... are not that Justissa Rizlesi at all, right?" The spear that Shiomi thrust out was blocked by the familiar created by silver hair, "Isn't that right, Black Holy Grail!"
Irisviel in the back recognized it at a glance. It was a magic inherited from the Einzbern, which gave life to one's hair and transformed it into an animal or a weapon depending on the battle situation.
However, the scale is completely different.
Justisa's familiar transformed into a sword, and every strike was as powerful as that of the Servant.
"Ah--"
Justisa, or the personality mimicked by the Black Holy Grail, sneered mercilessly.
