Faced with Bazett's somewhat angry expression, Kotomine Kirei touched his chin and thought for a few seconds.
"Then, I understand."
"If you don't mind, take a look at this first."
Kotomine Kirei walked to his desk, opened the drawer, took out a piece of paper, and placed it in front of Bazett.
Turning on the light in Kotomine Kirei's room, Bazett took the piece of paper.
"...About the changes in the Holy Grail War and the proposal to cancel the Holy Grail War...?"
"Um?"
She raised her head suddenly and looked at Kotomine Kirei in shock.
"What - what does this mean?"
"What does mutation mean? What does canceling the Holy Grail War mean?"
"...This actually starts with Assassin's crusade."
Kotomine Kirei calmly took a sip of coffee and then took the paper back.
"Let me think about it, where should I start..."
...
"Well, I found it!"
In the end, Matou Shinji chose to leave home and go to Enzo Mountain to become a civil servant.
The reason why I say he is a native...
The mole only found a path, but then loosened the soil leading downwards. If you want to go to the big hollow, you still need to dig it yourself.
But fortunately, Matou Shinji is a magician.
He can use magic means to dig up soil, and his efficiency is comparable to that of an excavator.
But after working for several hours and digging a large cavity, Shinji Matou still made himself look disgraced.
"...I'll probably get scolded by Sakura when I go back, forget it."
Shaking his head and wiping off a trace of mud on his face, Matou Shinji put on two layers of protection for himself and his eyes became serious.
Ahead——is the location of the Great Holy Grail.
The Great Holy Grail system built on the body and magic circuits of Justeza Rizreich von Einzbern... From the moment it was officially constructed, until now,
They are all running non-stop.
When Justeza was placed inside, there was no doubt that she was still a living person and had her own self-awareness. But now, hundreds of years have passed, and it's time...
What kind of scene?
He felt a little uneasy in his heart, but when he thought that this was indeed the sin of his ancestors, Shenji sighed and his expression became a little more ferocious.
If it was the ancestor's mistake——
Just let me go in and take a look!
Only by looking away from the family can we better see the suffering the world is enduring.
Only by knowing what kind of suffering the world is suffering can we understand what our family has done.
Matou Shinji took a deep breath and walked into the magic formation——
silence.
This is......
Opening his eyes again, Matou Shinji was stunned when he saw the scene in front of him.
This is...
The Great Holy Grail?
In the large hollow, countless magic formations lingered and entangled, and a beautiful white-haired woman sat in the middle of the magic formations with her eyes closed and an expressionless face, her body emitting a glimmering white light.
There is no doubt that this sight is beautiful.
Both the moving magic formations and Justeza Rizreich von Einzbern sitting in the center are beautiful.
Yes, the one in the center of the magic circle is Justeza, the head of the Einzbern family, who personally participated in the construction of this Great Holy Grail system hundreds of years ago.
She is both a constructor and a part of the system.
Back then, she still had herself and "life", but now...
No matter how I call, she will never wake up again...
Matou Shinji's eyes drooped slightly.
Justessa is already "dead".
Her body is still active and continues to be part of the Great Holy Grail, maintaining the balance of the entire system, but her self-awareness has long since died. Now Justeza is not so much a living creature as
Yes - a living corpse.
...It's really sad.
The need to use other people's lives as the basis for realizing wishes, something like the Holy Grail War... was definitely not right from the beginning.
Matou Shinji's eyes were filled with anger and helplessness.
Noble ancestors...
If you could see this scene - see your friend in this life-or-death state, you...
Will you regret it?
Matou Shinji doesn't know.
But when he saw such a scene, he could only feel anger.
"...I can't let this emotion dominate my brain."
Shaking his head, Matou Shinji's expression became more serious.
"The Great Holy Grail cannot be destroyed now... If the black mud is really stored in the Small Holy Grail, without the bottom of the Great Holy Grail, the black mud will gush out in an instant...
.Just like it was ten years ago.”
"I don't want another disaster in this world...!"
After swallowing, Matou Shinji tried his best to expand his perception.
Okay, now, let me look for it...
As long as a thing exists, it will inevitably leave some clues...
Even if I can't find it, I still have an ancestor who is stronger than me...
This is the purpose of Shinji Matou.
Now that the existence of black mud has been basically confirmed, we must first confirm the authenticity of this matter, and then... determine the source of black mud.
Why are these things hidden in the Little Holy Grail?
What is the origin of this thing?
How to completely remove these things?
This is what Matou Shinji wants to know and must know...
But now, let’s send a message to them all.
Sakura, Shirou, and...
Mr. Kotomine.
...
"Does it really exist?"
Adrosson is now staying with Sakura.
He looked at the messages on his phone with a serious expression.
Black mud... It's a pity that the curse on Shen Er has been removed, otherwise Adroson would probably be able to deduce the nature of the black mud based on the curse on Shen Er.
No, it can’t be such a pity...
After all, if those curses really still existed on Shen Er, Shen Er would probably have died because of this curse...
He secretly went to the cemetery next to Fuyuki Church alone before and checked the bones of the man named Emiya Kiritsugu from the ground. There was no trace of the curse on them.
"...No, I have to go with Shenji tomorrow. Sakura, do you want to come with me? Or should you go to your senior's house?"
Ancestors can naturally recognize their descendants...although they are not considered descendants, they are just children's thoughts anyway. Adroson directly exposed Sakura's thoughts.
"Ah, um, Lord Ancestor... I'd better go with you..."
Sakura was stunned for a moment, then showed a somewhat shy expression.
"After all, I am the master of my ancestors, right?"
