Chapter 323: Kill the Holy Body, Capture the Red Hair and Eat Dog Meat

To this world, the soul is an eternal existence.

As long as the memory design exists in a dimension different from the material world called the Star Realm, the soul will not die.

"Third Law"

Based on one of the five major magics in this world, it is the magic that achieves true immortality. Based on one's own soul, one can derive eternally moving infinite energy and use the immortal soul as a template to create a perfect body that matches it.

The so-called Holy Grail War is a ritual to realize the third law. The wish-making function of the Holy Grail is actually equivalent to the by-product application of this ritual.

On the mountain behind Liudong Temple, there is a large underground cave that is cold and wet.

Shirou Emiya walked in, looked at Caster who was wearing an indigo and purple hooded cloak and a purple robe in front of him, and asked: "How is it, Caster, is there any progress?"

"Based on the information you provided, coupled with those powers, it is very possible to purify the Holy Grail." Caster turned around, his long blue hair swaying, and there was always a hint of vigilance in his pupils.

After witnessing the battle between Gilgamesh and Shirou Emiya in the sky above Fuyuki, when Shirou Emiya brought Saber and the monster Hercules to Ryudou Temple, she had no idea of ​​resisting at all. I just want the other party to let go of my master, Soichiro Kuzuki.

But the other party unexpectedly proposed cooperation, and as if he knew the future in advance, he promised that she could obtain a physical body through the Holy Grail and would not take action against her and Kuzuki Soichiro.

"What's the time?" Shirou Emiya nodded and asked, "How long will it take?"

"The magic power of the spiritual veins is sufficient, and the magic power outside the Holy Grail can also be used." After Caster pondered for a moment, he gave an answer: "It will take three days at the fastest."

"It doesn't matter, the time is not so tight." Shirou Emiya looked at the large-scale magic circle that continuously drew magic power from the earth's veins, and said:

"As for Illya, I leave it to you."

"Her body function itself has been greatly extended, and the remaining minor hidden dangers are easy for me." After Caster finished speaking, he hesitated and asked in a cold tone:

"I said, aren't you worried that I will take this opportunity to counter you? You should know my identity, right? My real name is Medea, a traitorous witch who lived in the same era of gods as Hercules."

"Heracles, who has regained his rationality, should have warned you, but you don't even intend to sign the contract?"

"Counterattack?" Emiya Shirou was stunned, then he understood what the other party meant, and smiled: "We are an equal cooperative relationship, where does the term counterattack come from."

"As for your identity, it doesn't matter. The legends passed down cannot represent the whole person. The Caster who appears in front of me now is just an ordinary woman who wants to spend the rest of her life with my teacher."

"I don't want Illya to be harmed, and I don't want any more unnecessary victims to appear in the Holy Grail War."

"In a sense, we are moving in the same direction and do not need to be bound by a contract."

Caster was silent for a few seconds. She didn't know whether this trust was due to his confidence in his own strength, but

She did feel sincerity from the other party's attitude and communication.

"Why a guy like you appeared in the modern era after the end of the myth is really an unsolved mystery." Caster Medea turned around, took out a metal staff again and knocked it on the ground:

"I have a good impression of you, so if you fulfill your agreement, I will do my best."

"It won't be difficult to help that brat complete the third act later. Just use a loophole to summon a few followers as sacrifices."

"If possible, please think of other ways. I always feel that it's not good to summon others and then kill them like this." Shirou Emiya smiled awkwardly, "Then I'll leave it to you."

Before leaving, Emiya Shirou set up a formation on Mount Enzo and handed over control to Caster to prevent Gilgamesh or Cu Chulainn from coming here to destroy it.

["I'm sorry to tell you that I confirm that the Holy Grail you are looking forward to cannot change the past, and the same will be true after purification."

"The so-called Holy Grail War is just a conspiracy of magicians who want to use the Holy Grail War and the entire heroic spirit system to reach the source vortex."

"Fulfill your wish? Ah, it is indeed possible, but it requires the use of magic power to a certain extent. Want to change the past? Hahaha. You are really an innocent little girl."

"Caster, don't say irrelevant words!"]

Emiya Shirou's and Caster's voices were still echoing in her ears.

After returning from Ryudong Temple, Saber was always a little depressed. It was not until 4 o'clock in the morning that the lights in this house gradually dimmed and went out.

Saber slowly closed her eyes. She wanted to deny what she heard and not accept this ridiculous reality.

However, the church, the Great Hollow, and Caster's plan.

She obviously shouldn't feel tired, but for the first time she felt helpless.

'Shirou, I believe you. ’

'But it's not over yet.'

‘Holy Grail. ’

She slowly closed her eyes. Only tonight, she was not trying to recover her magic power, but wanted to clear her mind through sleep.

Emiya Shirou, who was in the room next to her, looked at the chandelier on the ceiling and said nothing for a long time.

Maybe it's because I'm too impatient, or maybe it's because my destiny has already changed and I can't follow the steps.

Emiya Shirou stretched out his hand and glanced at the command spell on the back of his hand.

'Sorry saber, but...'

'I want to save you too. ’

He slowly closed his eyes. He had consumed too much and chose to sleep normally instead of using the elixir to replenish his energy.

Tonight, the Emiya residence was as quiet as usual.

The sky was burned red by the flames, and it was even brighter than during the day even though it was late at night.

Explosions of burning flames, wails, and the sounds of buildings collapsing were heard one after another.

"Dream"

Saber looked at the ruins and felt a sense of familiarity.

There must have been a big fire. The streets were in ruins, and even breathing was very difficult.

The red-haired child was sobbing and gritting his teeth as he walked in this hell. He walked for a long time, and the road ahead was blocked by flames, so he wanted to cross the ruins.

but.

Devoured.

The dark clouds in the sky seemed to be about to rain, and the young child looked at the sky numbly. Then, there was darkness, as if it was buried by collapsed ruins.

The sound of digging kept coming, as if he was looking for something. He moved away the gravel with his hands and made a pleading sound.

"Kiritsugu?"

Finally, after a search until the nails were cracked and oozing blood, the man seemed to have found hope, and tears fell down on the face of the young child together with the rain from the dark clouds.

With tears in his eyes, he murmured words of thanks, and took out a scabbard engraved with elf writing and blue patterns from behind his back.

Later, the boy was adopted and given a new name - Emiya Shirou.

The man lives with the adopted boy, but he often goes out and takes a long time to come back.

Because of the disaster, the boy was more precocious than his peers and worked hard to help take care of everything at home. Although the two were not related by blood, they lived like a real father and son.

"When I was young, I used to yearn to be a messenger of justice."

"When you said [were], did you mean you gave up now?"

After the midsummer festival, the father and son sat on the edge of the house, looking up at the night sky.

"Well, it's a pity that I gave up." Faced with the child's dissatisfaction, the man said: "Heroes have a shelf life. When they grow up, they are no longer heroes. If only I could notice this earlier. .”

The tiredness in his words was undisguised, revealing his powerlessness and helplessness.

The boy said: "There's nothing we can do about it."

The man nodded: "Yes, there is nothing we can do."

There are many helplessness in life, and by this moment men have learned to compromise.

"Let me help you realize it."

The man turned around in surprise.

"Partners of justice."

The boy named Emiya Shirou determined his ideal at this moment. It was natural for him to look forward to his father like a child. He wanted to be a partner of justice.

Keep practicing magic, keep exercising, and keep helping others in life.

He knew that his ideal was just borrowed, and he also knew that he was just an ordinary magician, but he still looked forward to it and moved in that direction.

Even though he was confused, he still had faith until he was involved in the Holy Grail War.

"Shirou, it's you."

She understood that she had seen Shirou Emiya's memory.

An overwhelming rainbow light fell from the sky, accompanied by roars full of anger and murderous intent. It was not a language she was familiar with, but she could understand the meaning of the words.

"Red bastard!!!"

"Dead dog!!"

"Holy Communion Offal!!!"

"I swear with my Taoist heart, I will kill you all!"

"It's too much to bully others! It's too much to bully others!!!"

"Ooooooo, give me back the money! My master will beat me to death if he finds out!"

"I must train you into a powerful medicine for the human body!!"

A handsome young man in white, a black dog larger than a man, and Shirou Emiya with long hair in a robe were running like they were running for their lives.

"Shirou?!"

Rather, he is running for his life.

Behind him were thousands of beings flying in the sky, all of them flying with murderous intent in their eyes.

The handsome young man and the big black dog dragged Emiya Shirou flying in the wilderness, with various spells behind them to destroy everything along the way.

The strong murderous aura firmly locked onto the two people and the dog who were running wildly.

Suddenly, a middle-aged man appeared in the sky, punched out, and a fist mark with an area of ​​dozens of miles fell from the sky, wrapped in thunder and lightning.

At the critical moment, two people and one dog escaped into a portal.

"This is."

The scene suddenly changed, and in the sky with few stars, the same scene was played out again.

Unlike last time, this time.

"Ye Fan! There are five dragons in front!!"

"Behind! There are two thousand wheel seas behind!!!!"

"I want to go home."

Bloody thunder and lightning, cyan hurricanes, huge waves appearing out of thin air, and those powerful figures, red clouds blooming, fairy lights rushing up, and thousands of auspicious colors.

"Kill the holy body, capture the red hair and eat dog meat!!!"

"Kill the holy body, capture the red hair and eat dog meat!!!"

"Kill the holy body, capture the red hair and eat dog meat!!!"

After being hunted down again and again, he repeatedly used magic to project.

"Boy, the order is here!"

"100 fat sheep!"

"A fat pig at the level of a saint!"

"Dragon Weapon, 10 pieces. King's Weapon, one piece, construction period of 10 days."

"5,000 pieces of Lun Hai Dharma Artifacts, construction period is 5 days."

"How can you sleep? How can you sleep at your age? Get up and work!"

Drink the spiritual spring when you are thirsty, eat the spiritual fruit when you are tired, day after day.

"I am the bone of my work."

Saber looked at these fleeting memory fragments in confusion. An extremely boring and huge sense of danger made her feel that these memories were inexplicably different.

"What exactly have you been through, Shirou?"

Unlike the previous memories, these memories are intermittent and inconsistent.

The surrounding scenery changed again. This time it was not a secret room, nor was it on the road to being hunted.

Shirou Emiya stood on a towering mountain, with a sea of ​​clouds standing on the top of the mountain, like a fairyland.

The waterfall bursts out from the top of the mountain and flows down like a Milky Way to the world. Under the sunlight, the water vapor actually hangs large and small rainbows in the sky.

It's just that Shirou Emiya's condition is not very good now. He is wearing a white ancient Taoist robe. The Taoist robe is torn and has traces of various weapons, and the remaining part is almost stained red with blood.

There was a long sword hanging on his waist. The scabbard was red and black, with a tree carved on it. The hilt was white, giving it an unreal beauty.

He held a petite figure in his arms, with long snow-white hair scattered on his arms.

Saber recognized the girl in Shirou Emiya's arms: "Ilyasviel?"

Immediately afterwards, she saw Shirou Emiya splitting the space and walking into nothingness. The world behind him fell apart as if it had encountered the end of the world. Stars fell from the sky. In an instant, the beautiful world of water and sky was like purgatory.

The illusory long river surged, and countless beautiful scenes appeared in the places it washed away. The scorching sun and the night were in the same sky, high-rise buildings and wooden and stone villages appeared in the same place, and the entire history was plunged into chaos.

There are peerless gods, heroic immortals, filthy demons, as well as magicians, dragon knights, and elemental spirits.

With the deepest and most terrifying malice, these beings emerged ferociously from the illusory river, and together they formed a giant that grabbed at the void where Emiya Shirou was.

She saw it and he made three wishes to the girl.

"I pray to the Holy Grail, that my sword can reach the past, present, and future."

"May my sword be able to cut off the cause and effect, destiny, existence, and time of all living beings."

He waved his sword and slashed at the giant that was a collection of almost all mythological concepts.

"All things in heaven and earth are swords. Gods, ghosts and demons are swords. There are countless tribulations. Time is also a sword. Today, I use everything in the universe as a sword."

In the radiance condensed by the beauty of all living beings, he who prevented the disaster from coming will soon be annihilated.

Finally, he made a wish: "I hope that after countless years, we can bloom a similar flower."

call!

Saber suddenly opened the quilt and stood up, opened her eyes and woke up from her dream. As she woke up, the intermittent memory scenes were also interrupted.

"Is that Shirou's memory?"

She looked at the sliding door on the left and suddenly remembered what Ilyasviel had said.

"Memories from past lives, Su Hui?"

7 o'clock in the morning.

Emiya Shirou woke up from his sleep in a daze, not because he woke up, but because he sensed someone else beside him.

He lifted up the quilt and saw a petite figure curled up next to him, with his head resting on his chest.

"Illya, didn't you go back?"

"Shirou, it's cold."

Emiya Shirou sighed and glanced at the alarm clock beside his bed, planning to get up and make breakfast.

At this time, the sliding door on the side was pushed open.

"This is a misunderstanding." Emiya Shirou said when he and Saber looked at each other for the first time.

Saber looked at Illya under Shirou Emiya's quilt and shook her head: "Congratulations."

"Eh?"

Humanity Survival Institution. Chaldea

Go to the corridor to the cafeteria.

"Fuyuki?! Is it that place again? Let me go." Fujimaru Ritsuka lowered her head, looking completely lifeless. She leaned on Mashu next to her.

"Senior, cheer up, it's just an investigation." Mashu encouraged, while rubbing Fujimaru Ritsuka's shoulders: "After all, this is the origin of the Holy Grail War. It may be a detection error, but it's not necessarily a detection error."

"I've been watching TV dramas recently, and it's the most dangerous places like this where problems suddenly appear and then suddenly become normal!" Fujimaru Ritsuka stood up helplessly, rubbed his hair, and said seriously:

"It's the same place as Singularity F, but earlier in time. Is it a parallel world group on the main trunk?"

"Maybe it's a tiny singular point, but not necessarily. It's okay to leave it alone." Goldruff said.

"I don't know." Da Vinci said with a smile: "Maybe even the main body can't say, just kidding, in short, this special situation needs to be investigated, and it is best to bring a man who knows Fuyuki. "

"Mr. El-Melloi II? Indeed, it was thanks to him that we were able to successfully solve that special singularity last time." Matthew affirmed.

"There are actually a few people who can help at this point in time. Their karma, nature, and attributes are compatible with that piece of history, so it's easy to transfer them together." Da Vinci suggested: "Go to the cafeteria Let’s take a look, everyone should be here at this time.”

"Speaking of the Fifth Holy Grail War" Fujimaru Ritsuka straightened her hair, opened the blocking door and shouted: "Emiya Mommy, are you free after lunch~~?"

A white-haired man wearing an apron and gloves who was baking food gritted his teeth, stood up from the kitchen counter, and protested: "How many times have I told you, don't call me mom!"

"Mom, I want pudding." Little Jack raised his hand and said.

"Mom, I want jelly." The nursery rhyme stood on the book.

"." Red A of Chaldea took out two plates of fruit and put them on the table: "Children, please give me more fruit!"

"Eh?!!!"
