Anime: Blue-Eyes Baby Dragon, picked up by the Knight King

Iskandar's tyranny was terrifying. His terrifying strength of being able to fight one against three and yet using his military might to suppress the enemy forced the other kings to admit: in terms of strategy, this king was indeed superior.

But Artoria's chivalry was equally strong, her conviction to "fight for justice" permeating the entire situation. The other kings had to admit: as an ally, she was definitely the most reassuring one.

Similarly, although Nero, the Roman emperor, was not as talented in military and governing as other kings, her passionate pursuit of culture made other kings deeply feel what "cultural invasion" meant - in the end, there were only a few cities left belonging to the Roman Empire, but the culture originating from Rome was widely spread in their respective countries.

As for Gilgamesh... well, all I can say is that the country he ruled was truly prosperous, and the people were incredibly well-organized. Even after being plundered so many times by Iskandar, he still managed to hold onto the title of "Number One in Overall Strength."

"Humph."

"It's just a fake game. It can't truly reflect the style of this king!"

Gilgamesh commented with a very disdainful voice.

These so-called "kings" had no idea what kind of enemy they were facing at the time, so naturally they could speak nonsense here.

But then again.

"But if it's used as a sideshow, it's not too bad."

"At least, you really pleased this king!"

……

Day 4 of the Holy Grail War, daytime.

Originally, before noon, it was just an ordinary day like any other.

The young magician was constantly chased by the red-haired king driving a chariot, and was undergoing special training in "manliness".

Caster and Jeanne Lily continued to perfect their magic formation to ensure that nothing would be missed.

Illya pressed Sakura Tohsaka on the sofa and forced her to call her sister - but for some reason, this seemingly quiet girl refused to obey and refused to speak even if she died.

This is a warm and beautiful daily life.

But after lunch, this daily routine was broken by a dull crash.

"Puff-"

Irisviel had finished her lunch and was about to stand up from her chair when her legs suddenly gave way and she fell heavily to the ground.

"Mother?"

At this time, Illya did not know the seriousness of the problem.

She just ran to her mother's side and tried to poke Irisviel's body - she thought her mother was playing some game with her again.

But after she pushed for a long time and Irisviel still didn't respond, the little loli suddenly realized that something was wrong.

"dad--"

She called out to the only person she could trust in a voice that she didn't know why, but was just anxious.

Emiya Kiritsugu, who was sorting out bills with Hisau Maiya in the study, hurried over after hearing Illya's crying.

He checked Irisviel's condition as quickly as possible - unconscious, seemingly out of control, but still breathing.

"Yeah."

"It's already this time."

Emiya Kiritsugu was a little flustered.

He had known that this day would come, and he thought he was well prepared for it - but when this day finally arrived, his killer mind, which he prided himself on being "absolutely calm", became extremely confused, almost unable to think.

Almost in a dazed state, he picked up the unconscious Irisviel and walked into the "room" that the magician and the little saint had prepared for her.

"It seems the Greater Holy Grail is activating faster than we thought."

Irisviel's condition also attracted the attention of others.

Caster, who possessed the Eye of Insight, observed the situation of the underground spiritual veins - he discovered that the entire Holy Grail system was already in a state of restlessness.

"It's probably because yesterday's match took too long, which resulted in a huge consumption of mana."

According to their original plan, the timing should have been just right.

But yesterday's [King's Game] did consume more magic power - the current Holy Grail 4.6 is in a state where it may be activated at any time.

"The good news is that our layout is almost the same."

"Then we just have to wait..."

Caster puffed on a cigar and analyzed calmly.

But in the next moment, he suddenly saw something. His expression froze and the cigar in his hand fell to the ground.

"wait?"

"Waiting for what?"

"Waiting for me?"

A voice that was a little too sweet, even a little seductive, suddenly sounded outside the door.

Standing there is a "person" who absolutely should not be here.

[Irisviel von Einzbern].

Or, you can call her:

"The Holy Grail of Black!".

Chapter 137 System: I am just silent, it doesn’t mean I am dead

This might be a scene that would make Caster so embarrassed that he would be speechless, or even too embarrassed to face anyone.

"I built an absolutely secure magic formation!"

This was a promise he had made to others.

Of course, he did a very good job.

Based on his own experience, he created a special room that could be used to defend against "all the evils of this world." He also asked the Holy Lady of the Holy Church to reinforce the room with various baptismal chants.

It's no exaggeration to say that even if the Greater Holy Grail system were to explode, causing the black mud containing the evil of this world to continuously gush out, the special room he built would ensure that the damage would be minimized - or even to the point of no damage at all.

From a certain perspective, Caster's preparations could indeed be said to be quite thorough—he had even considered the worst-case scenario.

But he had never considered the situation before him.

The Greater Holy Grail system was in a state of constant activation, causing Irisviel, the Lesser Holy Grail, to lose consciousness. The evil of this world, residing within the Greater Holy Grail 05 system, took advantage of the situation, seized control of the body, and then "walked" out of the room in broad daylight.

"It's clear that you've been putting a lot of effort into setting up that barrier."

"But unfortunately, have you ever considered that I can get out of that room by just turning the doorknob?"

The Black Holy Grail mocks the magician's carelessness.

And when she looked at the servants who were approaching her unknowingly, there was no fear on her face.

"How cruel."

"Do you really have to destroy me?"

"I just want to survive!"

The Black Holy Grail spoke in a tone of deep grievance—but the expression on her face became increasingly frantic, even unscrupulous.

"In that case, don't blame me for being ruthless."

"Berserker!"

The Black Chalice raised her left hand.

On the back of her hand, the Command Seal that should have belonged to Irisviel glowed with an enchanting red light.

"not good!!!"

Altria had realized what she was trying to do.

But in this situation, it was too late to stop it.

"In the name of the Command Seal—"

"Berserker, release your restraints and reveal your true self!"

"boom--"

Before the Black Holy Grail finished speaking, a violent shaking sensation was heard in the castle.

Under the influence of the Command Spell, Shirataki, who was originally standing in the castle in human form, immediately lost control of his body.

"Rumble--"

The castle is crumbling.

A huge figure directly used its body to knock open the entire castle.

That was a real dragon.

It has a pure white body and a pair of blue eyes full of majesty.

But now, this white dragon seems to be affected by some evil power.

An ominous red and black aura enveloped its pure white body, making its body no longer holy and its eyes no longer pure.

"Oh? Still resisting?"

"I have to say, for a Berserker, it's quite remarkable that you've managed to maintain your sanity to this degree."

"But what if this is the case?"

The Black Holy Grail raised his left hand again and cast the second and third Command Spells in succession.

"Holy White Dragon, plunge back into the mire of chaos!"

"Then——become one with me!!!"

……

it's dark.

It was just the sunny noon, but in the blink of an eye, all the light was gone.

“Fire——”

Tohsaka Tokiomi used the fire magic passed down from the Tohsaka family's ancestors to completely illuminate the surrounding space.

Then, on top of the castle that had become a ruin, people witnessed what true "terror" was!

"Wow, so big—"

It was a black dragon.

Its massive body not only covered the entire forest, but also the distant Fuyuki City.

There was also black mud flowing on the dragon's body that looked very ominous. As a heroic spirit, Artoria instinctively felt that the black mud must be a very scary thing that could even corrode the spiritual foundation of a heroic spirit.

For heroic spirits like them, the thing called "All the Evil in This World" is indeed the most deadly poison.

“It’s… troublesome.”

Altria held the holy spear in her hand, feeling a little worried.

She only had one chance to use the Holy Lance—but even now she wasn't sure if it could defeat the Black Holy Grail that had become one with Shirataki.

And the Black Holy Grail was laughing wildly.

She appeared in human form, with half of her body on the dragon's head - of course, the upper half.

"Hahaha, give up. There's no way you can defeat me now!"

"What a powerful strength, what a perfect body—this power will now be used by me!"

"Now, it's impossible for you to defeat me!"

She was laughing wildly.

As if due to excessive joy, the expression on her face suddenly became extremely ferocious - that is, the level of what is called "facial expression".

however--

"Zero points!"
