Chapter 586 Holy Sword Turns into Holy Spear

While Cheng Tian and Qiu Qiu enjoyed a loving and filial relationship, the other challengers gradually came to understand the existence of the Demon Castle.

Its existence is essentially a phenomenon similar to the erosion of the real world by an inherent barrier.

The only thing that can cancel out a Reality Marble is the Reality Marble itself.

Among Servants, those who can materialize their mental landscapes and replace their real-world existence are obviously rare... but in this battle, there happens to be one who can do just that.

He is Red A, also known as Shirou Emiya's "Alaya-vijnana contract evolution form".

Shirou Emiya and Artoria both belong to Eevee to some extent, but they will become different individuals in the future depending on their different development paths.

While most people received the images of Castlevania: Storm of Devil and wanted to delve deeper into Castlevania by completing the levels, Archer Red had already figured out the nature of Castlevania's Reality Marble and planned to use his own Reality Marble to resist Castlevania's encroachment on reality.

Rather than actively entering someone else's territory of strength, Red A clearly prefers to turn the battlefield into a situation more advantageous to himself.

The current situation is chaotic. They came to investigate the Holy Grail contamination incident, but they have unknowingly turned into a brave adventure in the Demon Castle, and are even enjoying it, without realizing that something is wrong.

Yes, they never knew that this Devil Castle was built by Cheng Tian by stealing the magic of the Black Mud. They always thought it was a special trick by the corrupted Holy Grail.

However, judging from the results, there was no difference.

Because regardless of whether Earl Cheng Tian or Qiuqiu 2.0 wins, the evil of this world will reassemble in some way to form a specific curse carrier, and all that is needed is to defeat this specific carrier, then the curse will be appeased.

Of course, this is only from the perspective of Type-Moon itself.

As a being of the Alaya consciousness, Red A naturally could not continue to slack off in the face of a situation that clearly threatened the survival of humanity in the region.

"I am Sword Bone..."

Red A's mother's Inherent Boundary forced incantation is quite long, so I'll stop here.

As the mental landscape replaces the real world, a scene completely different from Castlevania unfolds, centered around Red A.

The hazy gold light shining through the clouds illuminated the arid earth, where countless swords and other weapons were stuck, resembling one sword mound after another.

Meanwhile, an enormous gear stood in the gap between heaven and earth, slowly turning, as if maintaining the operation of heaven and earth—

Realistic Marble Unlimited Blade Works.

The scenery presented by Archer's Unlimited Blade Works is as if it has swallowed up the first half of Castlevania; the two scenes are forcibly spliced ​​together like a collage of images.

The throne room at the top of Castlevania was also cut and pieced together.

What was originally a gray, chaotic scene filled with disorder and destruction was suddenly partially replaced by scenes from Unlimited Blade Works. This resulted in Cheng Tianqiu and his son, who were enjoying a loving father-son relationship, along with the monsters and servants they controlled, being successfully exposed to everyone's view.

To be honest, this scene is really confusing.

Both Cheng Tian and Qiu Qiu should be part of the investigators, but now that one is leading a large number of demons and the other is leading a large number of black mud followers, the cursed aura emanating from them makes them immediately realize that both Cheng Tian and Qiu Qiu may have been afflicted and become part of the Holy Grail curse...

But the bigger question is, how did they end up fighting each other?
Could it be that the Holy Grail Curse itself is also experiencing internal divisions?

I don't understand! I really don't understand!
However, sometimes you don't need to understand everything; the magic detection alone can draw a conclusion. Both Cheng Tian and Qiu Qiu have become targets that must be eliminated!

"In the name of Lord El-Melloi II, I authorize everyone to launch a full-scale attack on the embodiment of the curse!"

Knowing that time is everything in the face of the curse, Waver said he was authorizing everyone, but he was actually saying that to Grey.

He is not so arrogant as to think that having only one investigator status gives him the authority to direct all his assistants.

However, things did not go as he expected, because in that chaotic space, there was a special individual who had a considerable bond with the challengers.

That's Rin Tohsaka's younger sister, Shirou Emiya's good junior, Sakura Matou.

Her current state as a corrupted, mimicking Servant has astonished those below.

Sakura Matou's disappearance was very abrupt, and even Rider, who had the opportunity to notify others, quickly disappeared as well, so Emiya and Tohsaka had no idea about Sakura's problem.

Now they've ended up in a scene blatantly filled with human malice, and have even become the target of attack. How can they possibly accept that?

Even Archer, who used his Reality Marble to divide Dracula's Castle, couldn't have predicted this scene.

"Sacula!"

Emiya Shirou's roar, emanating from his very soul, clearly reached into the chaos.

Sakura Matou, who was mainly responsible for summoning familiars to fight, trembled slightly at first, then lowered her head and looked in the distance towards her sister and senior, before revealing an evil yet sweet smile.

She didn't feel forced at all, because she knew that Qiuqiu needed her.

The psychological damage caused by 11 years of physical abuse is not so easy to cure. Sakura desperately needs the "needs" of others, whether it is Shinji Matou, Shirou Emiya, or Qiuqiu. As long as they show strong needs, she will respond.

However, because the events unfolded so rapidly, Emiya and the others had no idea what Sakura had gone through, nor did they know that when the old worm was crushed by Qiuqiu's own hands, Sakura developed a morbid dependence on Qiuqiu.

"Sakura! I will! I will definitely save you!"

Artoria was moved by the Master's intense emotions, and she, who was still hesitant, was driven by this strong feeling to grasp the Mystic Code box handed to her by Gray.

This costume, which could originally transform into multiple forms, began to release its seal on its own in Artoria's hands.

As the costume underwent a dramatic transformation, a long spear came into view of the others.

At the same time, Artoria also let out a painful groan, as her body visibly swelled up.

She transformed from an eternally fifteen-year-old girl into a mature woman in her early twenties—
