Chapter 301

"Deputy Director! The control room found a branch of the World Tree that was about to rot—"

"I'll be there right away."

If the previous Phoenix Chaldea could only be regarded as garbage thrown into the river by people, and could only stop outside certain specific worlds if it was caught by scavengers; then the current Phoenix Chaldea can be regarded as having evolved into a single-cell organism that can move on its own, and can actively stop outside certain worlds where special circumstances are obviously occurring.

——Just like now.

"What's the situation? How did the rotten branches of the World Tree appear?" Lansemello walked into the control room and asked the people gathered around the director's seat, "Have you contacted Alaya or Gaia in that world?"

"No response." Fujimaru Ritsuka shook his head and looked at Chaldeas in the sky, which was almost completely stained by black. "I suspect that the human race over there has been destroyed. Doctor Roman and Da Vinci are analyzing the situation in that world. They said that the collected data has fluctuations similar to some existence."

"What is the origin of this world tree?" Lansemero glanced at the numbers flashing on the huge translucent computer screen and asked Kirshtalia who was standing next to Fujimaru Ritsuka, "Is there any record in the database?"

"…The comparison results are out." Kirshtalia projected the comparison results obtained using Trismegistus onto the central screen of the control room. "It is the same origin as the Shibuya Anomaly and the curse world that we were previously commissioned to separate from the main world."

“So this time it’s Jujutsu World No. 2…” Lansemello turned his gaze to the computer screen in front of Roman, watching the numbers gradually slow down. “This result—”

Before the final result was displayed on the computer screen, a sharp alarm sounded in Chaldea again, and a striking red alarm light came on - at the same time, new news came from the Crown Chat Room.

"R.N.: Notice to all, the Beast with the principle of "compassion" has appeared in the world - the spiritual basis has not been confirmed, the location has not been confirmed, the order has not been confirmed, and the world it belongs to does not belong to the "Type-Moon" world tree."

"C.AG: Leave this to me. --Additional note: The world I belong to is "Magic". "

"The type and size of the spirit base is a Beast." Roman sorted out the situation bit by bit in the alarm, "which means that at least one Grand Servant must be dispatched - and according to Sheba's observations, the human order in this world has been destroyed, and Alaya should have been destroyed. This world line is destined to be cut off..."

"I'll go and get involved." Lansemello smiled and arranged the next tasks for everyone. "Rather than arranging for our Grand Servant to go, it would be easier to find a local who can give him a Grand Servant Spiritual Foundation, right? Then only I, who can see the past, am most suitable to enter this world."

"I will awaken the most suitable person from the memory of this world."

"Master L13 is in place." Da Vinci took over the broadcasting work and watched Lancermello enter the lepton transfer basket again. "The basket is operating normally, Master L13's physiological indicators are all normal - prepare for the lepton transfer."

Roman hit the enter key to start the soul transfer system.

"The soul particle transfer has entered the final stage."

"Coordinates: ADXXXX.XX.XX Curse World No. 2"

"Laplace's transmission support has been established."

"Addition of factor positions for unique points has been ensured."

"Anti-call system has been set up."

"Please make the final adjustments, Master."

"Counter-summoning system, activated."

"Begin the soul particle conversion."

"The distance to the start of the soul transfer is 3, 2, 1."

"All work is completed."

When Lancermello fell into this world as a Servant, he saw the huge Beast that looked like thick black mud at first sight.

The unknown Beast did not launch an attack, and Lancermello was able to land safely and connect with the spiritual vein of this world - perhaps because the Beast itself was too huge, the tiny Paradise Fairy was ignored by the dark Beast like a mosquito.

"This is a world of spells... Then, around this beast, there are these things like Lahmu surrounding Tiamat in the seventh singularity..." Lansemello noticed the densely packed subordinate beings surrounding the beast and remembered the battle in the seventh singularity, "Are they cursed spirits?"

Only then did Lancermello notice that this world itself had a strange peace - although the huge beasts occupied a huge area, except for the extinct humans, all other creatures gathered around the beasts; it could even be said that the closer the area was to the beasts, the more prosperous the other creatures were.

"Tunguska non-primate habitat?" Lansemello tried to contact the control room while moving away from Beast. "No, but the cursed spirits are related to humans, right? So they are still humans after all? No... These creatures - there is no fear!? In this world, there is no negative emotion!?!"

"This is exactly the same world as the one that Gaetia showed Mash, the perfect world that erased death - this Beast erased all negative emotions!"

"No - this Beast is the negative emotions of this world itself."

While waiting for a reply from the control room, Lansermello began to observe the past of this world - but this dead world became the second world that refused her to continue to delve into the past.

——Just like the Saint world that rejected Lancer Mello's clairvoyance because of the chaos in the past timeline, Lancer Mello can only observe the history after the extinction of mankind in this world.

She saw tens of thousands of creatures settle and multiply around the Beast, and the Beast has never moved from this position after destroying mankind - but among the first creatures that settled there were predators* and prey, so the Beast continued to grow in size, until now the Beast has absorbed the negative emotions of all creatures into its body.

——Then there will be no more disputes in the world.

Even these creatures do not know what fear is, what sorrow is, and what anger is. They only meekly accept being eaten by predators. Even if they are about to die in the next moment, the atmosphere of these creatures is still peaceful and calm... and even carries some subtle signals of happiness.

——This is a world that is so peaceful that it is eerie.

Lansemello held the huge wand and retreated cautiously - when she retreated from a certain line, she turned back suddenly and smashed a cursed spirit that was about to prey on her with her wand.

“…As expected.” Lancer-Melloi closed his eyes, used magic to block the flying cursed spirits, and looked at the world in front of him again. “The scene just now was an illusion. After all, although Beasts have the characteristics of threatening humans, they are not harming other creatures.”

——Just as Tiamat turns all creatures that fall into the tide of chaos into Lahmu, this beast contaminates all the creatures around it and turns them into cursed spirits.

——Just like the Morse transformed by Belial that New Chaldea met in the fairy kingdom.

"Deputy Director!!!"

Roman's shout was heard over the communication channel - luckily there was no problem with Chaldea's communication this time. Lansemero used magic to compress the air as a foothold to quickly jump out of the Beast's control range, while Roman reported to her the latest investigation results of the Beast in the control room.

"This beast can be preliminarily confirmed to have mixed characteristics of I to VII—" Roman took a sip of coffee to calm his breathing, and quickly explained the results of the control room's investigation to Lansermero, "Most of the data is consistent with the data collected from the cursed spirits before, but the cursed spirits only have malice and no kindness towards humans, so the cursed spirits do not meet the qualifications for the birth of a beast."

"...So we checked the data of the sorcerers we knew."

"What's the result?"

"The user of the Curse Spirit Manipulation Technique, Geto Kagome." Fujimaru Ritsuka looked through the camera at the Lancer Mello floating in the air and calmly announced the correct answer, "As we have discussed before - Geto Kagome in this world turned into a Beast and destroyed the humans in this world."

“I guess so.” Lansemelo sighed helplessly. Her clairvoyance that had been looking at the past was replaced by her vision of the present. She escaped from the encirclement of the cursed spirits, landed on the ground again, and established a connection with this world. “Fujimaru, I need Alaya’s permission—it doesn’t matter even if I still can’t see the past.”

"Since he is Geto Kagome, then the only person who can be used to target his Grand is this one!"

"...I allow it." Fujimaru Ritsuka looked at the giant beast on the screen with his golden eyes that were almost the same as those of a god, and transferred the other half of the authority given to the Crown Spiritual Base to Lancer Mello. "Since it is a disaster that destroys human history, it should be handled by Alaya's 'collective subconscious of mankind'."

"Declare."

Your body is under my command, and my fate depends on your sword.

If you are willing to follow the call from the source, obey this intention, and go along with this principle, then you will respond to it.

I swear hereby.

I am the one who accomplishes all the good deeds in the world, and I am the one who spreads all the evil in the world.

You are the seven gods entangled by the three great spirits.

Coming from the Wheel of Restraint, the Guardian of Libra—! 』

The past of this world, which had been isolated and sealed by the Beast and turned into a rigid state, began to flow again at this moment - Lansermello reached out and immersed himself in the memory of this planet, dragged out the shadow of a certain sorcerer from the dream of the planet's past, and awakened this sorcerer who had been dead for a long time from the silence of death.

"In the name of the 'root' of Gaia and Alaya, I will give you the spiritual foundation of Grand."

A young sorcerer with white hair and blue eyes appeared in this world. And then, the sorcerer who received the Grand Spiritual Base became a more familiar figure to the magicians of Chaldea.

——This is also the appearance of this Grand Servant when he first met this Beast.
