() The scene in front of him is really hard to accept, especially Chu Xuan. He has always wanted to use technology to explain everything, but Felicia's mere appearance made him lose track.
What exactly is this transformation between reality and reality...
"Hey, have you returned to spirit?"
The clear female voice recalled everyone's consciousness, and the first thing they saw was a sharp blade swallowing blue flames——
Zheng Zha recognized that this was Zhao Yingkong's ion light knife, but now in Felicia's hands, it had a different flavor...
The flames of the light sword only lit up for a moment, and then gradually disappeared until they disappeared. Then Felicia herself also disappeared into the air. Zheng Zha was horrified to find that Felicia had not left yet. His proud
The intuition is completely unable to sense the other party’s existence!
If this is used for assassination...
Zhao Yingkong had already regained consciousness. In fact, even though she was possessed, she still knew what was going on outside. At this moment, she was staring at the void in front of her.
When the wind blows, it's over in an instant.
When Felicia reappeared, it was just a blink of an eye.
"Yes, phase raid is worth learning from..."
As soon as he finished speaking, a huge rock hundreds of meters away suddenly turned into a pile of dust and collapsed instantly.
Everyone's hair stood on end——
Is this... the true power of the Dark Templar?
-------------------------------
On the lonely street, Rin closed her mouth tightly and searched for the smell around her.
The same scenery as usual.
After ten o'clock in the evening, the streets were dark and quiet.
There was not a single soul on the road, and even the sound was gone.
The dead night air that I have been used to since the beginning of the Holy Grail War.
But, at this time.
“───It’s so quiet.”
Beside Felicia, Rin murmured softly.
That's right.
As she said, it's quite quiet here.
These days, the town is as quiet as a ruin at night.
From silence to Dharma silence, from deep sleep to Dharma sleep.
but.
The deathly silence tonight easily surpasses the silence of the law.
"Now, it was the same over there yesterday. Even if the lights in every house were turned off, it wouldn't be so dark if there were street lights."
Rin stared at the road that extended to Ryudou Temple.
In the opposite direction to Xindu, it is almost a suburban town.
There is no light at all, and it looks like a dark wall from here.
"──────Let's go."
After saying this, he started walking towards the dark streets.
Rin didn't say a word.
Probably, you don’t even have to think about it.
The black shadow reappeared.
What do you feel when you see it so close?
It sounds like a black wall at the end.
The moment you step into a familiar town through it, you understand what is happening in this area.
The town is too quiet.
Saying he fell asleep is not correct.
Once here, the human breath is completely cut off.
It does not mean sleeping, but "lifelessness", the complete stillness brought about by death.
The streets and towns have not changed.
There were probably about fifty households in the surrounding area, immersed in the late night without any change.
There were no signs of damage to the entrance hall.
There was no sign of an invasion.
The walls have not peeled off and the roof has not lifted. Of course there is no crane that can completely lift the building from the inside out.
Same over there.
However - the atmosphere of more than a hundred residents was gone.
"───rher, go into that house and have a look."
Putting on gloves, Rin and Felicia invaded the nearest home.
Go through the door sign.
Open the entrance door.
Step onto the corridor.
I walked around the first floor and climbed up the stairs to the second floor to investigate.
"No, nothing."
Immerse yourself in the night town as usual.
The building was unscathed and no bodies were found anywhere.
By dawn, no one would notice anything unusual, and it was almost perfectly clean.
but,
The surrounding area looks even more desolate than then.
Although I tried to go around several houses next, the miserable situation was exactly the same.
The building was not damaged at all, except that there was no one inside.
All that remains is the uncomfortable remnant of magic power.
Buildings are still buildings, streets are still streets, and the ground is still the ground.
Tightly stuck there is a black afterimage that still retains its color and shape.
That is──it goes without saying that the cause of such a tragic situation is known.
A body without a body.
Bleeding without bloodshed.
Streets and towns swallowed by shadows.
"Hey, it's the same as the previous meal. It's just that the scale is very different. Starting from the traces of mud left in the town, there's no need to visit each house. It's like a big tsunami covering this area, and then it disappears.
To the ground. Are you starving, so you want to eat it in one go?"
"But organic matter doesn't seem to be the appetite of Yizhi. He skips the inanimate objects and only digests the organic matter without leaving any trace.
If there is any advantage, it disappears in an instant. There is no time to feel the pain and horror."
"It feels a little strange. I've hit it several times, but why do the black shadows that appear feel stronger?"
"It's the Holy Grail. The more heroic spirits the Holy Grail recovers, the stronger it becomes, and it continues to devour humans. The shadow is growing day by day."
"Holy Grail...Sakura, she——"
Rin struggled internally.
"Rin, I found something!"
Felicia's voice came to my ears.
"kindness?"
"Rin, there are footprints left by that black shadow on the ground. Do you want to follow them?"
Felicia was referring to the scum-like black mark left on the ground.
"Chase, rher, and try your best to destroy it if you can!"
Rin made a decision.
"no problem."
Without saying anything, Felicia quickly chased after Lin, gently holding her soft body.
Walking in the dark————
"Hey, look, why is that guy so wet?"
Someone came closer with a creaking sound.
"Hey, isn't she a woman? Barefoot? Haha, this woman is so funny."
Groups of people came closer.
"Hey. Very free.
If so, come to confront me?"
He laughed dryly, still not understanding that he was being bewitched.
"Woman, do you want to run away?"
"Wait a minute? Did you guess it right? Come here!"
"Don't do bad things?
You can’t walk with bare feet, or you don’t want to protect us?”
There was a sound of swallowing...
"something" clattering down the street.
A "horrible thing" that kills people with every step it takes.
Dragging the body with a shudder.
The blood splashed on the body was so smooth and bright red that it was dizzying.
Maybe it has a certain smell that can seduce men.
As long as you wander around like this in the middle of the night, food will be delivered to your door automatically.
eat.
At first I crushed it into pieces before eating it, but recently I seem to have figured out the trick.
No need to crush food anymore.
Just approach it from your feet and pull it in, and you're done.
Eat cleanly both physically and mentally.
He hummed softly and swayed his body.
"──I've always been full of energy. Only tonight it's twice as strong as usual."
I met even scarier people.
escape.
The "something" that had never been timid before ran away from that person in fear.
Blonde hair and red eyes.
Someone who has the same aura as her.
I encountered it once before.
"Die now, little girl. If you are familiar with it, you won't even be able to die?"
The golden servnt who advises girls to commit suicide.
"Something" looked pathetically panicked and fled into the alley.
But, this is the end.
"I was looking forward to this inferior Holy Grail, but I didn't expect it to be completed. It's a pity to say it's a pity."
"It's up to my hands to say goodbye. Before dying, just curse yourself appropriately."
"Something" was pierced by many blades in an instant.
Ah?
Strange, it hurts.
Why did it fall down?
Why does the body become in tatters?
"Ah────?"
it hurts.
There is a wet, sticky pink color oozing out from the belly, which is really ugly.
Although I thought of stuffing the overflowing intestines with my hands, my hands were shaky as if only a layer of skin was attached.
Feet──Although there are still feet, from the waist down, they are as clean and slippery as chicken feet.
"────No"
As soon as I made a sound, my back felt like it was struck by lightning.
But I can't jump without arms or legs.
"You still have a breath left. You are living a filthy life, little girl."
────No mercy at all.
With a flick of his finger, the golden man took out a blade that was larger than a human body and cut off her neck.
"It hurts……"
The girl, whose whole body was penetrated by the Noble Phantasm, was lying on the ground like a smashed insect.
"Ah────"
Girls are still conscious.
Even though his life has been saved, he is still reluctant to let go, trying hard to lift his arms and legs to save his life.
"Hmph──Aren't you dead yet? Dirty little girl.'
A death sentence with contempt.
The golden man──the heroic spirit known as Gilgamesh compassionately raised the final blow.
"I still don't want to die and it took a lot of effort to get the senior to look at me and say I want it, want it, and caress me even more───"
Can't see anything anymore?
At the end of the day, the girl was still thinking about meaningful wishes in a hazy state.
Not easy.
As if relying on the small happiness that he finally obtained, he stretched out half of his arm,
"No, I don't want to die, I don't want to die! Because──because if I die, senior, I will be killed by my sister!"
"It's really an eyesore. Don't cause any trouble to me."
Swing down the severed sword.
The girl's consciousness was bathed in blood and disappeared into the dirty alley.
"────Huh?"
When I turned around, it was already too late.
"────You, could it be that────!!!???"
It was swallowed starting from the feet.
Completely escapable.
The black shadow quickly climbed up on the golden figure, and was about to devour him who couldn't resist.
"Rher, save people——"
A girl's cry sounded in the darkness.
"Well...who is it?"
The golden servnt turned around and saw the silver angel running towards him in a blaze of light.
Under the pure white light, the shadow's imprisonment quickly faded away, and the king who regained freedom smiled.
