"Isn't he still dead?"
Toosaka Rin frowned, looking at the hole in front of her in disbelief. This kind of attack that wiped out the entire workshop would have the same result even if it was the Toosaka family. How could that old bug still survive?
"The body he had just now is definitely gone, but a monster like this that has transformed its entire body into insects will definitely not easily reveal its true form."
"Then Ishtar, while you're using my body these few days, can you also look for Sakura's trace and the location of that old bug's real body?"
"Okay, it's just a matter of convenience. Besides, maybe we don't even need to look for it, it will come to our door on its own."
Ishtar slowly descended to the center of the pit, and the big bow, like a floating cannon, blasted towards a place according to her wishes.
"why?"
Ishtar's confident tone made Toosaka Rin a little confused for a moment, but she did not answer her immediately, but continued to control the spiritual outfit.
Not long after, a black ball wrapped in charred insect corpses as hard as steel slowly cracked open, revealing the items inside.
"Just now, when facing the judgment of this goddess, that guy's first reaction was not to protect his insects as much as possible and escape to save the fire, but to let the insects under his feet crawl into the secret passage and escape with this thing. It can be seen that the importance of this thing, even if it is inferior to his life, is not much different."
Ishtar waved her hand and took the tool that was being tightly guarded by Matou Zouken.
——It was an octagonal rune stone with a scarlet Eastern Dragon engraved in the center.
"As long as we have this thing in our hands, he will come to us and die. Really, that monster actually underestimated Ishtar's vision."
Ishtar stretched out two fingers and pinched the prop. She looked at it carefully in the moonlight, and the light in her eyes became brighter and brighter.
"I've made a profit. I didn't expect that such a magician would have such a precious treasure. Unfortunately, it seems that it has been overused. I'm afraid that the power inside cannot be easily utilized. However, its power is still incomparable. Could this be something left behind by a great god?"
"What do you mean by unavailable?"
"Well, in modern terms, it's like the phone shutting down due to a lack of power for a long time."
"What's the point of that..."
Although Toosaka Rin was originally excited about the spoils, she was disappointed when she learned the result.
"Humph, a treasure that is called precious by my goddess Venus, even if it is covered in dust, its power is enough for mortals to flock to it. If you don't believe it, try it yourself."
As if to prove herself, Ishtar handed over the control of her body to Toosaka Rin, and Toosaka Rin also held the talisman engraved with a dragon with a confused look on her face.
"what?"
And the moment she held the talisman, Toosaka Rin exclaimed.
Abundant magic power continuously poured into her body. The moment she held the talisman, she felt as if she had an extra external energy source. The total amount of magic power was much stronger than before. Moreover, the consumption caused by using spell bullets to extract magic power from small sources was replenished in less than a breath.
"It's amazing. It has such power even before it's unlocked. I'm afraid the treasure that the master passed on to the Toosaka family may not be as strong as it. In terms of vision, you are worthy of being a goddess."
"Yes, yes, praise me more," Ishtar's voice was a little proud, "and not only that, even if it is sealed, it has a powerful effect of amplifying energy."
"I'll give it a try," Toosaka Rin's eyes lit up as she held the talisman in her hand, "However, since it's energy amplification, it's more intuitive to use gems than my magic output."
Toosaka Rin picked up a gem filled with magic power, stuck it behind the talisman, activated the magic circuit, and converted the magic power inside.
"Wait, don't..."
Ishtar immediately stopped Toosaka Rin's actions, but she was still a step too late.
A dazzling light ignited on the surface of the talisman, and the huge amount of magic power spread a second time, transforming into the purest light cannon, which was released in the direction where Toosaka Rin was aiming, and blew the few remnants of the Matou family into pieces again!
Too much magic power caused Toosaka Rin to stagger back a few steps. The light cannon released by the talisman also swept the surroundings as she moved, and it did not stop until Ishtar regained the initiative.
"You are too careless! Fortunately, I interrupted my magic power, otherwise the surrounding mortal buildings might have been affected by you."
"Sorry, I didn't expect that," after making a mistake, Toosaka Rin became much calmer.
Ishtar wanted to say something else, but suddenly, she turned her head and looked at the sky where the flames were spreading, roaring like thunder, and as hot as day.
"Wow..."
As if she had seen something troublesome, her expression suddenly twisted and she no longer bothered to scold Toosaka Rin.
"Ma Anna!"
Ishtar transformed her spirit bow into a shape like a small motorcycle, sat on it, and left the Matou family at full speed.
"What was that in the sky just now?"
"It's the aftermath of the Holy Grail War, but the instigators must be those two guys. We should not get close to them. Once we get close to them, our lives will become miserable."
Ishtar rarely revealed a serious tone, which made Toosaka Rin shut up obediently. Because someone was taking care of her body and what happened today was too stressful, she fell into a deep sleep soon.
It was not until the dawn of the next day, when she woke up in a daze, that she realized that Ishtar still had not returned her body to her.
"Stupid goddess, what are you doing? I'm already late!"
"Wait a minute, this is my fault, but I have something I have to finish!"
While admitting her mistake obediently, Ishtar still had no intention of returning her body. Just when Toosaka Rin wanted to snatch it back by force, her breathing subconsciously stagnated when she saw the scene in front of her.
On this deserted road, sparkling gems form a thin line leading to the corner of another street.
And Ishtar was happily picking up gems.
"One after another..."
It was just like a trap used to catch birds in the wild, and Ishtar was the ignorant little bird.
"What on earth are you doing? This is obviously a trap!"
"I can't do anything about it!" Ishtar said confidently while picking up the gems. "Since I possessed you, my spirit has been reduced to magic power, and it can only be used through the release of gems. Without gems, my combat effectiveness will decrease. In the end, it's because of you that our few gems have been consumed in large quantities. Without offerings, this is a rare opportunity to replenish them."
"Moreover," Ishtar waved the gems in her hand as if to show off, "the quality of these gems is better than the ones you brought."
"……Really?"
Toosaka Rin swallowed, "Then let's hurry up...ah, no, calm down, my other self, it would be even more suspicious if such a precious gem was thrown on the ground like this!"
"It is indeed suspicious, but because of this, only a fool would fall into such a trap," Ishtar said proudly, "Could the person who set up this trap waste such a precious gem just to catch a fool? This is impossible, so this must be God's reward for me clearing my sins yesterday."
Such well-reasoned words made Toosaka Rin silent, and finally, she made a decision.
"Change, let me pick it up!"
"Ah, cunning!"
"This is my time, right? And if I do it, it won't be so conspicuous."
Toosaka Rin held the gem in her hand, looked at its beautiful glow, and laughed unladylike, but at the same time, she did not let her guard down and held the magic meter given to her by her father.
This thing can detect the degree of threat posed by magic and use it to give warnings.
Then, when she reached the corner and picked up the last gem, Toosaka Rin suddenly saw the magic meter in her hand spinning like crazy, and finally it exploded due to the high speed, emitting black smoke.
“——Found it.”
A cold voice suddenly came.
Toosaka Rin subconsciously raised her head and looked into the eyes of a young man with ruby-like pupils standing at the corner. In his hand was a strange prop with four-headed dragon sculptures, and the dragon head pointing at her was shining with a scarlet light.

Chapter 65: The Sealed Ishtar
"Will anyone really fall for this trap? It feels like a waste of gems."
Medea asked as she watched Roland take handfuls of gems from a jeweled golden jar and throw them on the ground carelessly as if they were bait.
"If it were a normal person, they probably wouldn't be fooled, but unfortunately, if it was that goddess who came, and the object of possession was Toosaka Rin, we should just treat her as an idiot. Look, isn't it coming?"
Roland looked at the brightly lit search device and smiled mysteriously.
-
"Ishtar!"
When she found that the other party seemed to be searching for her as well, Toosaka Rin began to call for her Servant.
Suddenly, she changed from a powerless little girl to a Servant capable of crushing ordinary magicians. The change was so fast and hidden so deeply that even the shrewd Zouken Matou failed to detect it.
However, Toosaka Rin's heart is still filled with gloom.
This was not only because of his own carelessness, but also because of the unchanged expression on the face of the enemy in front of him.
From the beginning, this guy knew about the existence of the Servant! He came prepared!
"Ma Anna!"
As a pseudo-servant of two in one, Ishtar also understood this, so she did not attack the opponent immediately. Instead, she let her spirit suit attack autonomously, and grasped the dagger that was like a symbol in the ceremony, swung her hand and slashed at the blue-gray arms that stretched out from the shadows.
In close combat, Ishtar, who can fly freely, is not inferior, but she must consider the condition of Toosaka Rin. Being entangled like this will be too disadvantageous for the subsequent battle.
But before her weapon could touch those arms, they naturally melted away and turned into a quagmire-like darkness, stretching out ropes made of shadows and entwining around her body.
"Damn it!"
One wrong step leads to another. All the actions that caused you to lose the initiative due to greed have now paid their own price.
While she still had time to move, Ishtar crushed another gem, allowing a huge amount of magic power to linger around her, forming a barrier to resist attacks and helping her break free from the shadow-like rope.
Fortunately, Ma Anna was released at the first moment, and the opponent could only attack once at most. Next, it was time to return to our own rhythm and let the enemy understand what the wrath of the goddess Venus is!
But the mysterious enemy walked straight up to her without any regard for the attack from above.
The attack shot from the spirit bow like a cannonball was blocked by the invisible barrier around it before it touched Roland's body.
Seeing the caster suddenly appear and follow closely behind Roland, Ishtar finally realized the seriousness of the situation.
Not caring about the noise, Ishtar gritted her teeth and injected all of her magic power into the spiritual suit in the sky with the help of the invisible connection. She wanted to replicate the bombardment that wiped out the Matou family. Even if it would affect herself, it was better than falling into the hands of the enemy.
But Roland didn't even turn his head, he just spoke calmly.
"berserker."
A swift black shadow leaped up from the ground like a cheetah and grabbed the spiritual suit that was accumulating power. The dark red magic power corroded it and turned it into a longbow, but in essence it was Tianzhou's spiritual suit, causing it to let out an unbearable whine.
Although she may not be able to use its functions as skillfully as Ishtar, but in front of Lancelot, who can turn everything in his hands into his own treasure, the knight will not die with his bare hands. Maanna can only be used by him like a mallet and wastefully.
"Human, remember this!"
Seeing this scene, a trace of anger flashed in Ishtar's pupils, and the shadow rope began to break under the surging magic power, but the purple magic chain quickly took over this role and burst into strange electric light, suppressing Ishtar's struggle.
"If you are too careless, this will be the end of you in the Holy Grail War. However, it is really terrible. Being bound like this, a normal Servant would have lost the ability to resist long ago. The magic power in your body is still surging. Master, it seems that you can't trap her for long."
Medea looked at the deflated Ishtar and said with some sarcasm.
"Who cares about the Holy Grail? It's just like the Great Cup of Uruk. Although I am tempted, I would rather wait for the offerings from mortals than the troubles associated with it this time!"
Hearing such a naive idea, Roland sneered and took over the conversation.
"It doesn't matter whether you have this idea or not. The key is that you have the ability to fight for the Holy Grail, just like the Tousaka family will seek the church as an ally, right, Tousaka Rin?"
When she heard Roland calling out her name, the anger in Ishtar's red eyes was gradually replaced by confusion and bewilderment. She looked at Roland's face for a long time before revealing a look of surprise.
"It's you, the big brother from the convenience store... You're also a Master..."
Perhaps because the memory of being caught buying chocolates was too deep, after a period of time, Toosaka Rin still had an impression of Roland. But because of this, Toosaka Rin felt even more uneasy. Although it was not a secret, the dangerous Master in front of her, whose purpose was unknown, had seen her and her mother, and knew their identities very well.
"Master, there are some problems." At this time, Medea also came over and observed the state of Toosaka Rin. "In the servant state, their souls can also be transformed. This is a very deep level of possession. When I use my treasure to cancel the contract, it will also release the restraints on them. If this goddess is unwilling and still resists by force, it will be very troublesome."
"Humph, of course. I wasn't born from a formal summoning, but I chose Rin to make a contract because of the compatibility of the Holy Grail. Are you scared, human? In consideration of the offering you made before, if you can offer another one of equal weight, I would consider forgiving your disrespect just now."
"What a greedy goddess," Roland laughed dumbly, and slowly walked towards the bound Ishtar and raised his index finger.
"Hey, rude human, what do you want to do? I am a goddess, I cannot be a Servant. If it is not my own will, even if the contract is terminated, as long as I am unwilling, I will merge with Rin at a deeper level. No matter what conspiracy you have, it will not succeed..."
"Unless your body is destroyed as well?" Roland sneered. Such a cruel statement made Ishtar pale.
"It would have been more convenient to do it this way, but luckily I have a simpler method. You should be thankful that there is something useful left in that worn-out wisdom."
"What do you want to do?"
Ignoring Ishtar's words, Roland looked at Ishtar and muttered to himself: "First, let the owner of this body regain the initiative...Tousaka Rin, Sakura is in my hands now, do you want to see her?"
"Where is she!"
The anxiety and guilt accumulated throughout the night turned into eagerness, causing Toosaka Rin to switch into the main personality of this Servant's body. This was exactly the opportunity Roland had been waiting for.
He pointed his index finger at Ishtar's forehead, and under the flow of magic, a dark mark formed on his fingertips. After he finished outlining it, the chains that bound Toosaka Rin disappeared instantly.
But along with it, Toosaka Rin's spiritual outfit was also shattered.
"ah--!"
She turned back into the little girl in a red coat and pigtails, and fell steadily into Roland's arms from mid-air.
