Kotomine Kirei gazed at Tōsaka Tokiomi's corpse whose eyes were open in death and finally spoke out the thoughts that had been hidden in his heart.

Because he is a person with innate personality defects, a person who can only get happiness and satisfaction from things that are defined as evil, cold and cruel on a moral level.

This means that those things that seem noble, great, and of extraordinary value in the eyes of others are meaningless in his eyes. Everything he does is just to live up to the expectations of authorities including his father, teachers, and superiors.

But this kind of life was never what Kotomine Kirei expected or wanted.

So his life was like that of an ascetic without any joy at all, just like a puppet being controlled by others, left with only numbness.

But now, with Gilgamesh's enticement, he finally released the demon that had always been suppressed in his heart.

Especially when the sharp blade pierced into the teacher's body and he saw the mixed expression of shock and disbelief on the other's face, Kotomine Kirei immediately felt an indescribable sense of pleasure, happiness, and satisfaction, as if some kind of stimulant had been injected into his brain nerves.

There is no doubt that from this moment on he had completely opened Pandora's box like those drug addicts, and there was no way back.

"How is it? Have you felt a little relieved from the regret and remorse for not being able to kill your father yourself?"

Gilgamesh appeared instantly, a teasing and playful smile on his face.

After all, everything that was happening before his eyes was the result he had deliberately guided and anticipated long ago.

As an extremely arrogant and conceited tyrant, how could he tolerate Tōsaka Tokiomi's attitude of treating his followers as high-level familiars, and his intention to use the Command Seals to force himself to commit suicide the moment he won the Holy Grail War.

In fact, from the moment the Master used the Command Spell for the first time to force the Servant to obey him, the conflict between the two had become irreconcilable.

Unfortunately, Tōsaka Tokiomi did not realize this, and thought that he could appease the Hero King by showing respect, so that he would continue to help him seize the Holy Grail.

Little did he know that in the eyes of Gilgamesh, who could see through human nature and desires, his poor acting skills were as ridiculous as a clown.

But Kotomine Kirei did not directly answer Gilgamesh's question. He just smiled and asked, "Are you sure you want to do this, Hero King Gilgamesh?"

"Well, as long as you don't bore me."

Gilgamesh answered in the affirmative without hesitation.

As these words came out of his mouth, the smile on Kotomine Kirei's face grew wider. He slowly rolled up his sleeves and raised the arm covered with Command Seals to begin concluding a contract with it.

After a while, the Master who lost his Servant and the Servant who lost his Master re-established a close connection.

This is also the most interesting part of the Holy Grail War.

No matter if you are a Servant or a Master, as long as you are alive, you have the opportunity to make a comeback.

Feeling his body being replenished with magic power again, Gilgamesh raised his head and asked with interest: "Have you thought about how to deal with the coming storm?"

Kotomine Kirei nodded without hesitation: "Of course. There is still some time before dark, I think we can use the last few hours to build the most magnificent stage and put a perfect end to the final chapter of this Holy Grail War. But the premise is that you can defeat all opponents as you promised."

"Humph! What? Are you still doubting that I can't deal with Saber and Caster?" Gilgamesh raised his chin proudly.

“No, I’m just not used to being skeptical of things I haven’t seen with my own eyes.

You know, the last time you fought against this opponent, the result was not very good.

Moreover, please do not forget that our cooperation is essentially just about the pursuit of pleasure.

You can treat me as a clown for fun, but I also have the right to choose to leave after you fail.

We are not the Masters and Servants of the traditional Holy Grail War, and there are no so-called responsibilities and obligations."

Kotomine Kirei expressed his position very clearly.

Unlike before when he was played around by Gilgamesh, although he has now opened Pandora's box, he does not think that the King of Heroes can win 100%.

Whether it is the blackened Altria or the little Annie who is regarded as the king of gods Zeus, they both demonstrated power that is not inferior to or even surpasses Gilgamesh.

Therefore, there is only cooperation between the two, and there is no relationship of one being dependent on the other.

"It doesn't matter. I will definitely be the final winner anyway."

Gilgamesh curled his lips nonchalantly.

Just like that, the Joyful Duo began to prepare for the upcoming final battle.

Because everyone knows that tonight will decide who will own the Holy Grail.

However, no one knew that at this critical moment, Graya, the new master of the evil Altria, had already quietly left the current world and returned to his father to report his progress.

"So you convinced Emiya Kiritsugu and Irisviel that the Holy Grail had been contaminated and could no longer grant any wishes, and you withdrew from the Holy Grail War?"

Zuo Si put down the reality gem he had almost studied, raised his head and looked at his son in front of him with interest.

The Dark Prince nodded slightly: “Yes.

Didn't you tell me to try not to make too much noise?

So I didn't choose to use violence, but instead adopted the approach of persuasion and negotiation.

At present, the family has changed their identities and moved to a small island to live a simple life.

To be honest, I don't really understand how a guy like Emiya Kiritsugu, who has seen the dark side of human nature, can think like a naive child that he can eliminate war and bring world peace through some unknown supernatural power?

This is neither common sense nor logical.”

Hearing this, Zuo Si couldn't help but burst into laughter.

"Hahahaha! This is not hard to understand.

Haven't you heard that a man remains a boy until he dies?

It is precisely because we have witnessed the darkness of human nature and society that we are more eager to change all this.

What's more, human cognition is limited and has huge deviations.

Let’s take the simplest example.

Which era do you think modern Britons miss the most?

"I think it should be the Victorian era. Because at that time, Britain had just completed the first industrial revolution and was the undisputed world hegemon and the global colonial empire on which the sun never set. No country could challenge its position."

The Dark Prince Graya lowered his head and thought for a moment, then quickly came to his own conclusion.

Because this is not a difficult question to answer.

In fact, it is not just the British. Many comprador groups in many independent colonial countries also miss that era and believe that life in that era was full of gentlemanly manners and ladylike elegance.

“You’re right, what the British miss most is the Victorian era.

Because in that era, Britain had unrivaled power, rapidly expanding wealth, industrial capacity that was enough to crush any other country, and countless inventions.

But do you know what the price of all this is?

Or what is the dark side hidden behind these glamorous appearances? "

Zuo Si looked into his son's eyes and questioned.

Graya hesitated for two or three seconds, and immediately answered in an uncertain tone: "Is it a plunder of colonial resources and wealth?"

Zuo Si nodded first, then shook his head: "Yes and no.

Colonial plunder was certainly an indispensable part of supporting the British Empire to its peak.

Even the man-made Charissa Famine, the Skull Famine, the Agra Famine, the Irish Famine, the Upper Doab Famine, the Orissa Famine, the two Bengal Famines, the three Indian Famines, etc., resulted in the deaths of more than 80 million or even hundreds of millions of people, comparable to the total number of deaths in World War I and World War II combined.

But in the eyes of the British at that time, the indigenous people of the colonies were not considered human beings, at least not their own people.

So their deaths cannot be counted as part of the cost at all.

The real cost was that more than half of the British workers at the time were children under the age of thirteen and teenagers under the age of eighteen.

And the working hours range from twelve to fifteen hours.

Added to this are night labour, lack of regular meal times and long-term exposure to pollution and toxic environments.

More importantly, these child laborers almost never reach adulthood and die from overwork, hunger and accidents.

At the most insane times, the average life expectancy of British workers was even lower than that of primitive tribal and slave societies.

Someone once joked that the reason France failed to complete the Industrial Revolution faster than Britain was that their child laborers could live two to four years longer than British child laborers.

The bloodiness and cruelty at the beginning of the Industrial Revolution and the stage of capital accumulation are almost unimaginable for modern people.

Therefore, widespread communist and socialist thoughts emerged simultaneously in that era.

How about it? Doesn’t it sound interesting, full of irony and black humor? In the eyes of those who really know the inside story, the so-called beautiful Victorian era is actually an undoubted dark age.

And the queen who is remembered by countless British people was also a butcher whose hands were stained with blood and innocent souls.

Every member of the government cabinet at that time was incompetent and would be absolutely qualified to compete for the Chosen One of Tzeentch if they were brought to the Warhammer universe.

I guarantee that if the current British civilians were thrown into the Victorian era, they would not be able to tolerate such an environment and would unhesitatingly join the workers' movement or the Communist International to launch a revolution to overthrow the existing government.

Therefore, the British people's nostalgia for the Victorian era today is based on the premise that they imagine that they can become aristocrats and capitalists.

Because most of them have no idea what was happening at the bottom of society at that time.

Just like many people today like the Middle Ages by imagining themselves as the aristocracy in film and television works.

If you want to manipulate people's thoughts and behaviors, you first need to understand their thinking patterns and common cognitive misconceptions.

You have to know that there are only a very small number of mortals who have the ability to stand at a certain height to have a comprehensive understanding of something.

Most people only believe what they want to believe.

If you can use this well, you can easily control them.

This is why I firmly believe that the essence of rule is tyranny.

Because most ordinary people tend to be forgetful and don't have much historical memory.

As long as you have the power of public opinion, you can even completely reverse right and wrong.

And they are cowardly.

If there is no one who dares to stand up and take the lead, there will be no courage to confront the state's violent machine.

Therefore, maintaining high-pressure rule is not as difficult as many people imagine.

In fact, we only need to get rid of the leader, and then divide and win over the resistance forces, and it won’t take long before the resistance forces will fall apart on their own.”

The Dark Prince Graya showed a thoughtful expression: "Okay, I think I understand what you mean.

The reason why the British miss the Victorian era is because their cognition is distorted. They do not understand the misery and despair of the common people of that era at all, and think that they can live a rich and leisurely life like the aristocrats and capitalists.

Because the British government has erased that dark history from the eyes of most people by controlling the media, public opinion and books.

They even used propaganda to whitewash the colonial plunder that led to the deaths of tens of millions of people as the expansion of civilization.

As for Emiya Kiritsugu...

He is like the fooled masses who believed that the Holy Grail was a universal wish-granting machine, pinning their hopes on something they did not understand at all, a dream they believed was impossible to achieve.

“Yes, that’s it.

In fact, in the Fourth Holy Grail War, both Emiya Kiritsugu and Kotomine Kirei had some very interesting religious ideas.

This is also a common problem for most mortals.

That is to say, to attribute all things, contradictions and pains that one cannot understand to gods and demons.

In this way, whether doing good or evil, they can hold high the banner of gods and demons and blame their actions on the latter without any psychological burden.

Think about it, how many criminals, after being caught, would say that they were tempted by the devil or the demon?

How many people do good deeds in the name of God?

But in reality, these so-called gods or demons do not exist at all.

To put it bluntly, it is a form of escape from facing oneself.”

When saying this, Zuo Si's tone revealed naked and undisguised contempt.

Because in his opinion, both Emiya Kiritsugu and Kotomine Kirei are essentially pathetic shirkers, and there is not much difference between them.

"Do you need me to eliminate Kotomine Kirei in the final battle?"

Graya suddenly asked out of the blue.

Zuo Si chuckled and responded, “You can make your own decision on such trivial matters.

I only care about whether you and your sister can finally reach the source and successfully create a land card with mysterious blessings.

Also tell your sister that she doesn't have to worry about what I will do to her anymore.

From now on, she can do whatever she wants, and in principle I won't interfere too much."

"Ah? Do you mean to let my sister do whatever she wants?"

The Dark Prince was visibly taken aback.

Because this is almost a 180-degree turn from the previous attitude.

Zuo Si shrugged his shoulders in a very casual manner: "What else can I do? You have to understand that she is now a planeswalker.

Unless I forcibly strip her of her spark, it would be nearly impossible to lock it away.

Instead of making the relationship between father and daughter so strained, it is better to give her the freedom she wants.

Well, let’s stop chatting here, it’s time for you to go back.”

"Please rest assured, I will convey your words to my sister exactly as they are."

Graya placed one hand on his chest and bowed, then activated the planeswalker spark and disappeared on the spot.

As soon as he left, the Supreme Sorcerer Ancient One came in from outside and said in a joking tone: "I didn't expect you to be such an open-minded father. I thought you would catch little Annie and give her a good beating."

"No, no, no, don't mistake me for that stubborn and strong old antique like Odin.

What he does cannot be considered education at all; it is more like establishing authority and cultivating obedience.

All I have to do is help my children establish relatively healthy values ​​and morals.

Whether they obey me or not is not important at all.

After all, I never considered them as tools or extensions of my life or will from the beginning. "

Zuo Si's tone revealed his contempt for feudal patriarchs like Odin.

You have to know that when he was still a mortal before the spark of the planeswalker was ignited, what he hated most was parents and elders who tried to control and influence their children under the guise of "I'm doing this for your own good."

Although these people may talk more beautifully than they sing, what they ultimately want to do is to plant the seeds of absolute obedience in their children's minds.

Just like filial piety under the ancient feudal order, no matter right or wrong, not even the slightest rebuttal or questioning is allowed.

"Haha, if Odin heard this comment, he would be so angry that he would fight you to death."

Ancient One couldn't help but smile and shook his head.

Although she was not quite sure why Zuo Si and Odin still disliked each other even though they had signed a contract to become allies, she still thought that this kind of competition between men was very interesting.

Zuo Si responded nonchalantly, "That old guy doesn't have many years left to live. What he needs to consider now is how to make Thor grow up quickly, instead of looking for trouble with me as his ally. Oh, by the way, this Infinity Stone is of no use to me. Do you want it?"

"No use? You mean..."

Gu Yi subconsciously glanced at the reality gem that was emitting a red glow.

"Well, yes, I have taken the authority it holds just like the Time Stone."

After saying that, Zuo Si casually threw the gem on the table in front of him, then raised his hand and made a grasping gesture.

The next second...

The originally sunny weather outside suddenly turned into a pitch-black night, and the entire earth instantly lost the sunlight.

But this situation only lasted for a few seconds and everything returned to normal.

There is no doubt that Zuo Si had just distorted reality and caused the only star in the solar system to disappear.

"It's incredible. You actually mastered this Infinity Stone that is said to be the most difficult to control."

There was an undisguised surprise in Gu Yi's tone.

Because she could feel the strong resonance between the Reality Gem and the other party the moment he activated his power.

"As long as you understand the definition of reality, this is actually easier than expected. In addition, I have obtained the authority of the Space Stone. Now, it is time to send them all away."

As he spoke, Zuo Si took out the blue infinity gem he carried with him and threw it on the table, as if they were two insignificant pieces of broken stones rather than a treasure that countless people in the universe were fighting for. There was not a trace of greed or reluctance in his eyes.

Ancient One walked over and picked up the two Infinity Stones, feeling the tremendous power they contained, and asked without even looking up, "Are you really planning to give away both Infinity Stones?"

Because if I don't send them out, how will Thanos be able to collect the six Infinity Stones?

If he hadn't collected the six Infinity Stones, how could the final Soul Stone appear?

After all, I don't have any inseparable love to exchange.

Therefore, Thanos must know the location of all the Infinity Stones.

Only in this way would he sacrifice Gamora according to the original plan in exchange for the last Infinity Stone.

All I need to do is find the right moment to take back what belongs to me."

When saying this, Zuo Si did not hide his ambition at all.

Just like Thanos was willing to give the Mind Stone to Loki, he was also willing to give the Space Stone and the Reality Stone to him.

"Aren't you afraid that Thanos will become too powerful after getting the six Infinity Stones?"

Ancient One raised a crucial question.

“No, of course not.

因为灭霸对无限宝石的控制力很弱，根本不可能对我构成哪怕一丁点的威胁。

而且一旦我决定动手，他根本不会有任何反应的机会。

只要一瞬间，我就能拿到自己想要的东西。”

说着，左思身上开始闪烁诡异的电光，整个身体开始因为高速共振的关系变得极度模糊且不稳定。

“神速力？！”

至尊法师古一瞬间叫出了这股力量的正确名称。

“你居然也看漫画吗？”

左思顿时露出十分意外的表情。

古一下意识回答道：“以前是不看的，但自从卡拉出现之后，我稍微翻阅了一下相关的内容。

不得不说。旅法师的力量还真是有够神奇呢。

居然可以连接不同的时空乃至宇宙。

有了神速力的加持，除非灭霸提前使用时间宝石预知未来，否则他应该不可能是你的对手。

另外，如果你非要把这两颗宝石送出去，我建议你交给宇宙收藏家。

否则几乎百分之百会引发一场惨烈的战争。”

“不用担心，我知道该怎么做。等格雷亚处理完另外一个世界的圣杯战争，我就动身去把这两颗宝石处理掉。”

左思非常干脆的给出了保证。

他知道至尊法师的意思是这两颗宝石绝对不能留在地球上。

因为如果算上时间宝石和心灵宝石，地球上已经有了四颗无限宝石，这绝对是一件非常非常危险的事情。

任何对宝石有所窥探的人都会忍不住想要铤而走险。

……

夜晚，来自大海上略带腥味的微风轻轻吹过树林。

换上一身金色铠甲的吉尔伽美什正站在冬木市教堂的钟楼上，居高临下俯视着四周，似乎在等待敌人的到来。

言峰绮礼站在教堂内部的十字架前，宛如自己父亲般低着头像是在祈祷。

如果不知情的人还会以为他是个信仰虔诚的神父。

但实际上这是一个披着人皮的恶魔，正在渴望把恶散播到整个人间。

铛——铛——铛——

伴随着午夜钟声的敲响，天空中一架狂奔的战车疾驰而过，紧跟着从上边跳下一名彪形大汉，正是征服王伊斯坎达尔。

“哦？想不到今夜第一个来的居然是你。”

吉尔伽美什眼睛里闪过一丝惊讶之色。

“哈哈哈哈！怎么，不欢迎吗？要知道我可是带了好酒的。”

伊斯坎达尔举起手中花大价钱买来的名贵葡萄酒直接丢了一瓶过去。

吉尔伽美什稳稳的接住，打开塞子给自己倒了一杯，仰起头一饮而尽评价道：“还可以。虽然比不上我宝库中的珍藏，但也算是不错的美酒了。不过我很好奇，究竟是什么给了你前来挑战我的勇气？”

“你觉得呢？”

征服王咧开嘴笑着反问了一句。

瞬间！

从头到脚散发着刺骨寒意的阿纳斯塔西娅缓缓从黑暗中走了出来。

她身边那只精灵娃娃的魔眼更是不断闪烁着令人毛骨悚然的光芒。

很显然，在最终决战到来的时候这位沙皇俄国的末代公主终于不再继续伪装，而是将自己从者的身份完全展示出来。

不仅如此！

她甚至还修复了之前遭到破坏的要塞并将其重新召唤出来，进而在敌人的眼皮子底下构建起了庞大复杂的魔术工坊。

“你是真正的Caster？之前那个女孩才是御主！”

吉尔伽美什死死盯着不远处的少女。

因为这完全出乎了他的预料。

“看来我们成功骗过了你，不是吗？”

阿纳斯塔西娅抿起嘴角浮现出得意的笑容。

“哼！自以为是的小伎俩。你们以为凭这就能战胜我？”

吉尔伽美什显然并没有把阿纳斯塔西娅放在眼里，而是四下搜寻小安妮的踪迹。

在他看来，这两个从者根本不足为惧，只有小安妮才配成为自己的对手。

“不试试怎么知道呢。更何况我对自己的胜利可是很有信心呢。来吧，就让你见识一下我最强的宝具【王之军势】。”

伴随着伊斯坎达尔拔出剑发出的咆哮声，一道巨大的魔力漩涡迅速扩张并将周围的一切全部笼罩进去。

眨眼功夫，教堂和周围的树林就变成了一片黄沙覆盖的广袤区域。

在沙漠之上一支全副武装由英灵构成军团高举旗帜严阵以待，仿佛时光一下子回到了两千多年前的古战场上。

那种无法用语言形容的肃杀之气足以让第一次见到这种大场面的人窒息。

“固有结界？最接近魔法的魔术！”

阿纳斯塔西娅显然是第一次见到【王之军势】，完全被眼前所看到的景象震撼到了。

因为伊斯坎达尔的职阶是Rider。

她还以为对方的底牌应该是诸如龙、飞马、奇美拉等传说中的怪兽。

可谁能想到居然是一支完全由英灵构成的军团。

虽然这些英灵因为圣杯战争规则的关系，并没有职阶和相应的能力、宝具，但如此多的数量也足以把敌人彻底淹没。

伊斯坎达尔驾驶着战车来到军团的最前方，高高举起手中的宝剑大声询问道：“英雄王，你准备好接受我引以为傲大军的蹂躏了吗？”

“哈哈哈哈！尽管放马过来吧！我会让你明白在真正的王面前，无论多少蝼蚁都没有任何意义。”

吉尔伽美什大笑着打开了王之宝库。

数不清的武器在金色涟漪中缓缓钻出，保持着蓄势待发的状态。

下一秒……

伊斯坎达尔的大军就开始在他本人的率领下发起冲锋，而漫天的宝具也如同雨点般从天而降，把一个个士兵钉死在黄沙之上。

不过阿纳斯塔西娅显然不会就这样看着盟友的士兵战死，迅速施展寒冰魔法撑起一道屏障，阻止那些等级不高的武器落下来。

在她的掩护下，一部分士兵很快就冲到近前迫使吉尔伽美什不得不挥舞武器与之近战。

正当这边打得热火朝天时，远在几公里之外的树林深处，韦伯·维尔维特正在密切关注着另外一场战斗。

只见黑化的阿尔托莉雅正在与一只变大的玩偶巨熊展开厮杀。

前者在获得无限魔力的补充下，不断释放着破坏力惊人的胜利誓约之剑，才短短几分钟的功夫就彻底改变了周围的地形和地貌。

不过后者显然也不是吃素的。

浑身上下散发着令人毛骨悚然的黑紫色能量，甚至从里边长出了一条条不可名状的触手，触手上还有嘴巴、眼睛之类恐怖的器官。

“晚上好，今天的月色真美，不是吗？”

黑暗王子格雷亚仿佛压根没有看到自己的从者正在跟对方打得难解难分，依旧彬彬有礼的面带微笑主动打了声招呼。

“你……你究竟是什么人？”

韦伯·维尔维特用颤抖的声音问。

因为他很清楚，以对方所展现出来的力量，想要杀死自己就跟碾死一只蚂蚁没有任何区别。

确切地说都不需要亲自动手，仅仅只是卷入交战的余波就有可能在一瞬间从世界上消失。

同样的，他也对小安妮的身份和那只不知道用什么技术制造出来的布偶熊感到强烈好奇。

要知道最开始的时候，他还以为这只会说话的熊只是个用魔术创造出来的高级使魔，充其量像人偶一样拥有一定的战斗力。

可是却万万没想到这玩意居然可以对抗像Saber这样的顶尖从者。

“我是谁并不重要，重要的是一直跟你在一起的那个女孩去了什么地方？她难道逃走了吗？还是躲在暗处等待一个恰当的偷袭机会？”

说着，格雷亚饶有兴致巡视着四周。

他很好奇姐姐把两个从者和制造的最强大玩偶全部丢出来自己却不知所从究竟是想要干什么。

“别问我，我什么都不知道。”

韦伯·维尔维特赶忙撇清关系。

毕竟他现在的身份只是一个退出圣杯战争的旁观者，可不想成为眼前这个危险分子的攻击目标。

“呵呵，放松，我不会对你怎样的。”

黑暗王子给了对方一个安心的笑容，紧跟着将目光投向战场上的布偶熊，直截了当的问：“能麻烦告诉我你的小主人去了什么地方吗？”

“呸！想从我的嘴里套话？做梦去吧！我对主人可是忠心耿耿，绝对不会透露任何秘密。”

布偶熊躲开黑化阿尔托莉雅的攻击没好气翻了个白眼。

“哦？真的吗？如此说来你的小主人应该就在附近了。毕竟如果她离得比较远，你根本没必要如此急着表忠心。”

格雷亚瞬间就从对方的反应中分析出了一些有价值的信息。

这无疑让布偶熊立刻急得跳脚：“混蛋！你这个卑鄙无耻之徒居然故意给我下套？”

“这可不能怪我，是让你那么蠢呢。”

黑暗王子故意摆出一副轻蔑的态度继续挑衅。

因为他知道，这只玩偶熊是姐姐在幼年期的时候捏出来的，所以虽然拥有强大的力量，可是却并不怎么聪明，性格就像一个几岁大的恶劣顽童。

As long as you use some tricks, you can definitely get a lot of useful information.

Unfortunately, the ragdoll bear didn't know whether he had become smarter or had been warned in advance, but when he realized that he might leak the secret, he decisively shut his mouth and said nothing.

This reaction made Graya even more certain that his good sister must be planning something.

Just as he was considering whether he should take the opportunity to deal with the two servants first so that the Holy Grail could be filled, a shrill scream suddenly came from a distance.

moment!

The Dark Prince's expression changed.

The sound was made by the replica he had placed nearby Irisviel.

You should know that there are only a few places in the entire Fuyuki City that are suitable for summoning the Holy Grail, namely Ryutoji Temple, the Tousaka family residence, the church, and the People's Hall.

The first two places are inhabited by a large number of civilians, so strictly speaking they are not suitable for the descent of the mud-covered Holy Grail.

Therefore, the only places that could actually be used were the empty Tousaka residence and the church.

Since the church was chosen as the venue for the decisive battle, Graya planned to summon the Holy Grail here based on the principle of proximity, so he naturally brought the clone who would serve as the vessel of the Holy Grail and hid it nearby.

But he never dreamed that his sister could find and snatch this important prop.

In just a few seconds, little Annie teleported over carrying a clone in a white dress.

Since it has contained the souls of three Servants, the clone seems to be on the verge of losing its self-awareness, and an ominous aura continues to emanate from the magic circuits in its body.

"How did you find her?"

Graya asked in annoyance.

"Hehe, it's very simple. The magic power in her body is constantly resonating with the Holy Grail under her feet. Do you think this can be concealed by other means?"

Little Annie gave a straightforward answer.

As a quasi-divine power born from mystery and magic, her level of perception in this area is beyond the reach of ordinary people.

"So what are you going to do next?"

Graya continued to test calmly.

Little Annie raised the [Warlock King Scepter] in her hand and responded viciously: "Of course, I will blow up the heads of all enemies, including you, fill the Holy Grail with the souls of the servants, and then make it open the hole leading to the root. In this way, I can reach the root and fulfill my wish."

"Hahahaha! Ultimately, everything has to be solved with force, right?"

The Dark Prince laughed and drew his sword.

"You are...Graya?!"

Little Annie obviously recognized the weapon burning with black flames.

"It wasn't easy, but you finally recognized me. You know what? Your father was very sad and angry about your sudden departure from home."

Graya instantly removed his disguise and revealed his true appearance.

Because the action is about to begin, there is no point in pretending or not.

Given the strength between the two, there is no chance of holding back once a fight starts, and once they get serious they will definitely be exposed.

"So he asked you to come and take me back?"

When she heard the word "father", little Annie immediately became nervous and began to look around, as if Zuo Si would suddenly appear and catch her at the next moment.

Admiring her sister's guilty look, Graya couldn't help but smile and comfort her: "Don't worry, my father didn't come in person, nor did he ask me to take you back. Instead, he told me that you are free from now on and can do whatever you want."

"Free? Really? Then why are you here?"

Little Annie remained extremely vigilant and did not believe a single word that came out of her brother's mouth.

"Of course, it's to settle the personal grudge between us. You know, it was you who took the initiative to cause trouble to me last time, and now it's my turn to take revenge on you. Without your father's protection, I want to see how long you can last."

As the last word came out of his mouth, Graya suddenly turned into a black shadow and disappeared on the spot.

Then he appeared behind his sister and launched a surprise attack.

But little Annie was obviously prepared. She immediately blocked it with the [Scepter of the Warlock King], and at the same time released the Bigby force field hand with quasi-divine power, and slapped it back at lightning speed.

boom!!!!!!

Suddenly, another Bigby hand appeared in the air and collided with the previous one, making a deafening noise.

The strong shock wave quickly blew the soil, stones, broken weeds and trees on the ground into various places.

In the end, little Annie's big hand crushed Graya's big hand.

Because her attainments in magic are much better than her brother's.

What's more, the Dark Prince was using the Shadow Weave, which naturally had a disadvantage in terms of transmutation magic.
