Type-Moon, isn't this really the other world?

Fujimaru Ritsuka looked at him with admiration, and suddenly felt that the strangeness in her body was not so unbearable.

I was almost exhausted after just a couple of movements on the bed, while Mashu carried me for so long and managed to hold on.

"As expected of Mashu!" Fujimaru Ritsuka said sincerely.

"Master, you'd better not praise me at a time like this."

at this time.

The curtain was lifted, and a petite, beautiful young woman walked in.

"woke up?"

"Master, who is this...?"

Mashu then realized that she had forgotten to ask Fujimaru Ritsuka's name because she was worried about her and because of the lewd clothes she was wearing.

All we could say was, "It was this lady who saved us from the two Servants of the Beast of Original Sin."

"My name is Fujimaru Ritsuka, thank you very much for your help."

"You're welcome. My name is Helena Petrovna Blavatsky. Although the name Mrs. Blavatsky is quite famous in the world, it's really annoying that I have to change my surname when I get married."

"So it was you!"

Helena Blavatsky, one of the most representative female scholars of the 19th century.

Of course, this is only the identity as seen from the surface world.

In the underworld, he was a "genius" who had no connection with the Magic Association, no lineage of magicians, and compiled occultism entirely on his own. He was an idol worshipped by many low-level magicians without lineages of magicians in later generations.

Unlike Fujimaru Ritsuka, whose face was full of admiration and worship as she praised Helena's deeds, Mashu, though also showing admiration, followed up with a question after Fujimaru Ritsuka finished speaking: "May I ask which faction you represent, the Mage's Association?"

"No, that's not true. To be frank, all countries in this world except America have been destroyed."

Fujimaru Ritsuka and Mashu exchanged a glance. Although the news was quite explosive, they had already anticipated this, having experienced five official singularities so far.

"So who are you working for now?"

"king."

"king?"

"He'll be the king of the United States. If he conquers the world, there won't be any problems. This place will escape this chaotic state and become like a 'lost continent separated from another dimension,' forever wandering there, like the Throne of Heroes. Don't you think that's a good ending?"

Fujimaru Ritsuka and Mashu couldn't help but stiffen.

Although it is still unknown who the other party's "king" is, it is clear that Helena's thoughts are very dangerous.

Just as Mashu was about to correct her mistake, Helena suddenly asked, "By the way, why is that terrifying guy so concerned about you?"

"That terrifying guy?"

Fujimaru Ritsuka and Mashu immediately pictured Lin Jiu'an and the scene of them being tormented. Their bodies became hot again, and with a slight tremor, the things inside them seemed to start to tremble as well, causing the two girls' cherry lips to involuntarily part slightly.

To conceal her unusual behavior, Fujimaru Ritsuka immediately asked, "Do you know who he is?"

"The King of the South".

"The King of the South? Could you tell us more about him? We've just arrived in this world and there's a lot we don't know."

"No problem, I'm also curious why he's so interested in you guys."

Helena explained, "The two sides in the war were initially our 'King,' and the Celtic warriors you saw on the battlefield."

"The Holy Grail is now in their hands, and the other side is using the almost endless magic power of the Holy Grail to continuously produce those Celtic warriors. Therefore, even with the King's machines, we are at a disadvantage."

"However, a while ago, a guy suddenly appeared in Richmond, in the South."

"Not only are they very strong, but they also held their own against the Celtic king and Karna, the one who fought with him and saved you before. Furthermore, he used some strange ability to give those originally weak humans the strength of Servants."

"Although the Servants are only third- or fourth-rate, their sheer number makes up for it."

"Caught off guard, we were both badly beaten by him. Now we've barely managed to stabilize the situation, and with the three of us in a stalemate, no one dares to make any rash moves. We've only been able to have some small-scale outbursts."

Helena looked at Fujimaru Ritsuka with curiosity as she spoke.

"He seems quite interested in you? Why?"

"I don't know either. He just told me he wanted me to do him a favor, to 'corrupt' me, and then he attacked me directly."

"alright."

Helena didn't seem to care whether she got an answer that would interest Lin Jiu'an from them, and instead asked, "So what do you think? Do you want to join us?"

“Absolutely not!” Fujimaru Ritsuka immediately refused.

"Oh, is it so?"

Helena looked somewhat regretful and didn't dwell on the matter. Instead, she asked, "So what do you plan to do?"

"To stop the world from collapsing, we must eradicate its causes."

"I see." Helena sighed. "Then you should be considered our enemies."

"No, we can't say that yet, after all..."

Helena ignored Mash's words and continued, "It's clear from what you just did that you're quite strong. These mechanized infantry created by the King are probably no match for you, so..."

"Karna, come out and deal with them."

[Ding! Congratulations, host! You have successfully put "Nagao Kagetora" into a "completely corrupted" state. You have received the reward "Biten Eight-Symbol Chariot Formation (B)".]

In the forest.

A huge, black sphere rested in the forest.

Inside the sphere, Lin Jiu'an sat back in a chair formed of dark matter, looking down coldly at Nagao Kagetora, who was kneeling on the ground with an obedient expression.

Did I tell you to act on your own?

"Yes, I'm sorry, Master."

Nagao Kagetora looked at Lin Jiu'an with a pitiful expression, like a child who had done something wrong.

But her actions clearly contradicted her sincere and pitiful words.

While Nagao Kagetora's strength is decent, it can only be described as decent.

With Lin Jiu'an's current power and the "power" mixed with some of Kama's, it would be too easy for him to corrupt her. She only lasted for less than ten minutes before her spirit foundation was completely corrupted by Lin Jiu'an's power amidst her miserable cries.

Later on, it had a complete impact on the depth of her already corrupted spiritual foundation.

Now, Nagao Kagetora's snow-white hair seems to have turned a dark gold, and the color of his originally clear and bright eyes seems to have deepened. The expression on his face is completely different from his usual serious and earnest appearance; he looks like a different person, greedy and alluring.

"Degradation" does not change the personalities of these Servants, but rather entices out the deepest, most suppressed desires in their hearts, causing them to abandon all dignity and restraint, completely embrace the darkness, pursue the desires they once tried to suppress, and thereby obtain an exaggerated level of positive feedback pleasure.

It could also be said that these desires and the benefits of obtaining them were exaggerated to the point that they could instantly overwhelm their will, thus rendering their once strong will ineffective.

Servants like Kagetora Nagao and Artoria are on the "good" and "lawful" side.

Because he has been suppressing his dark desires all the time.

Therefore, sometimes they are indeed more difficult to fall into corruption than Servants from the "chaos" or "evil" side, but the darkness after their fall is also more profound. For example, before falling into corruption, Nagao Kagetora was unwilling to call Lin Jiu'an her master, but regarded him as a 'comrade'.

But after falling into depravity, that master cried out more and was more seductive than anyone else.

Her desire for Lin Jiu'an's magical power, which brought her extreme pleasure, had overwhelmed everything else for Nagao Kagetora.

Lin Jiu'an grabbed Nagao Kagetora's snow-white hair, and as the expression on her slightly comical face turned into pain and she cried out in pain, he pulled her close.

"You seem to have no manners, Kagetora Nagao."

"Master, Master."

Kagetora Nagao's gaze remained fixed on Lin Jiu'an's head, drool dripping from the corner of his mouth, whether from pain or pity, and tears welling up in his beautiful eyes.

"I know I was wrong, please forgive me!"

Lin Jiu'an did not answer immediately.

Instead, they sensed the fluctuating energy emanating from the black mud left on Fujimaru Ritsuka and Mash.

"Have you already taken action?"

Confirming their location, Lin Jiu'an looked mockingly at Nagao Kagetora, who had completely fallen and abandoned her dignity, and released his hand from her hair.

"You know you're wrong?"

Kagetora Nagao glanced longingly at Lin Jiu'an, but suppressed the maddening desire in her heart, prostrated herself on the ground, and trembled in a dogeza posture.

"I know I was wrong! Kagetora knows I was wrong! Kagetora will never dare to do it again! From now on, Master's words are everything to Kagetora! Please forgive Kagetora, Master!"

Nagao Kagetora completely ignored Lin Jiu'an's mocking expression and spoke up without hesitation.

Her beautiful eyes were fixed on Lin Jiu'an's head.

All her dignity and everything she had ever upheld had been completely shattered by Lin Jiu'an's 'torture' that no woman could resist. Now, she no longer needed or cared about those things; she only wanted a reward.

It wants its master's reward.

Want more 'magic'.

Lin Jiu'an sneered and kicked her away.

Nagao Kagetora's body slammed against the black mud wall. After landing on the ground, he crawled towards Lin Jiu'an on his hands and feet, only to be kicked away by Lin Jiu'an as he got up. When he tried to get up, Lin Jiu'an stepped on his abdomen.

"Oh, Master, please forgive me, I really know I was wrong."

"You know you're wrong?"

Kagetora Nagao nodded eagerly.

The black mud shrank and, under the pitiful, almost tearful gaze of Nagao Kagetora, returned to Lin Jiu'an's body, transforming into a simple set of casual clothes.

"Then let me see your loyalty."

Lin Jiu'an stared coldly at Nagao Kagetora.

"Bring back Fujimaru Ritsuka, whom you let escape, and I'll give you a reward."

"Remember, this is the last chance I'm giving you. If you disappoint me again, I'll show you what hell is like."

"Yes, yes, Master, I will bring her back."

Kagetora Nagao scrambled to his feet in a panic, kneeling on the ground in a dogeza, trembling with fear and longing in his eyes.

"I will never let you down again!"

The more she longed for Lin Jiu'an's reward, the more she feared his punishment.

Lin Jiu'an stopped looking at her and instead focused his gaze on Hu Yanzhuo, who was standing to the side.

His gaze towards this subordinate, who had always been loyal to him since he began following him, was not as cold as his gaze towards Nagao Kagetora, and his tone was also gentler.

"If you think I'm doing something wrong, or if you don't want to continue working for me, you can say so."

“Now I can go back to Valhalla and pretend nothing ever happened.”

Actually, he didn't really want to use this method on Nagao Kagetora.

But who told this guy to secretly let Fujimaru Ritsuka escape?

Even if she directly tells him, "I can't do it," or says, "I can't do anything for you," after being summoned, Lin Jiu'an can tolerate it. They have different principles, so they can't work together.

At worst, I'll just send her back to Valhalla and summon a new Servant myself.

As a result, he didn't do any of these things. He had always done his job properly for him before, and now he secretly let Fujimaru Ritsuka run away?

Even though Lin Jiu'an is still confident that he can control Fujimaru Ritsuka, he still has to vent his anger on someone, right? After all, it wasn't his fault, so why should he hold back his anger?

"Please believe me, Master."

Hu Yanzhuo's face immediately showed a panicked and pitiful expression, and he hurriedly said, "I'm willing to do anything for your praise!"

"very good."
