Type-Moon: My Destiny Guide

This is an elderly man, who appears to be between 50 and 60 years old. Although his hair and beard are all white, he stands very straight. His robust physique is more imposing than that of a middle-aged man in his prime. The wrinkles on his forehead, eyebrows, and the corners of his eyes add a touch of vicissitudes accumulated over a long period of time, but he does not have the aging appearance one would expect from an elderly person.

What is most impressive about the old man is his eyes. Regardless of the color of his pupils or any other special features, they are simply deep and profound, like the starry sky around him, stretching as far as the eye can see, as if his eyes hold countless mysteries.

The old man's name is Kishua Zelrich Schbeinaugu.

Before him, a figure with white hair and golden eyes slowly emerged.

Chapter 225 The Steel Land, UO and the Magicians

Kishua Zelrich Schbeinaugu.

In the secular world, he is unknown; in the mysterious world, however, he is known to all.

The name itself represents a legend. People admire him, fear him, or for various other purposes, and have given him all sorts of titles: the Second Magician, the Highest Magician, the Marshal of the Magic Path, the Jewel Elder, the Fourth Seat of the Twenty-Seven Dead Apostles. He is a man who truly stands at the top of the mystical world.

In FGO's concept Craft Essences, he is also a true T0-level card. Anyone who uses him knows how fun it is to unleash his Noble Phantasm right from the start.

"This axis is wrong."

The old man slid his right fingers in the air, causing the celestial bodies projected onto the surrounding walls to rotate.

"Was this polarized light also completely extinguished?"

"Oh, this cut is quite good."

Then, the pages of the book floating in front of the old man flipped up with a rustling sound in sync with his movements, recording all sorts of "information" in real time.

The book's title page is decorated with strange patterns, resembling countless concentric circles layered upon each other, with dense lines radiating outward from the center.

Some of these lines extend to the outermost circle and continue to radiate outwards, while others stop at one layer.

The book is about the thickness of a typical encyclopedia.

Despite its enormous size, thousands or even tens of thousands of pages appear and disappear whenever the old man swipes his finger.

The old man continued this work for a while until the figure in front of him became clear, and finally opened his golden eyes.

Without needing to say more, the two understood each other's identities.

"The Second Magician".

"Hello, the candidate for the Third Magician."

In the room reflecting the heavens and the universe, an inexplicable sense of oppression made Shuoyue somewhat solemn. Accompanied by the flashing of platinum light, the boy's figure gradually transformed into a tall and handsome young man, who sat down as the projected chair appeared.

"The Third Law, huh? What a long-awaited brilliance." The wrinkles on the old man's face relaxed for once, revealing a smile.

"So, what does the mighty Marshal of the Demonic Path want to tell me by intercepting me alone?" The younger version of Shuoyue leaned back in his chair, seemingly relaxed, but in reality, he was on high alert.

Ultimately, his soul did not belong to the Type-Moon world, and he was somewhat powerless in front of the top figures of Type-Moon.

"Don't be nervous, young mage." The Jewel Elder clearly knew something and said calmly, "No matter where you come from or where you go, I, an old man, have no intention of interfering with your thoughts. My only concern is the continuation of magic and how to reverse that common end."

At this point, the old man's deep gaze fell on the young man whose expression had changed slightly.

"It seems you already know what I'm trying to say."

Upon hearing this, Shuoyue pursed her lips, nodded, and uttered the ending that had been written from the very beginning:

"Steel Land".

Just uttering that word brings with it a sense of despair and impending doom.

A city struggling to survive atop the wreckage of UO.

The relentless onslaught of UO forces Ari struggles desperately to survive, her blood and the blood of her enemies and herself filling the sky and obscuring the sun...

It's not an official name, but a colloquial term used among the "people" living on a dead earth, signifying the dying star, the absolute end of the generation.

Planets are, in a sense, also a form of life, though their lifespan is infinitely longer than that of short-lived humans, they will eventually die.

As Earth dies, Gaia, acting as a restraining force, also vanishes. Before its demise, it summons its kin, the UOs of other planets in the solar system, to exterminate all life on those planets.

An abbreviation for "One of the Primordial Ones," the strongest life form on each planet (Note 1). It has no concept of a name itself; it is named by the surviving humans, such as "Steel Earth."

Compared to the destruction of UO, Gilgamesh's Arcana sword Ea's so-called "narrative of the origin" is utterly insignificant.

Without a doubt, this was an incredibly bad ending.

Moreover, this is the inevitable ending for all parallel worlds—Type-Moon creators like "Jewel King" and "Warazia Nights" foresaw this ending.

To avoid this ending, "Warazia Night" kept calculating, but no matter what he tried, he couldn't find the answer. In the end, he pinned his hopes on the legendary "Sixth Magic" and fell into vampirehood.

Meanwhile, the "Gemstone Elder" who is facing the new moon is also seeking the answer.

“That ending can definitely be avoided.” The old mage looked at the young mage and said in a deep voice, “Among the nine planets of the solar system (currently in 1999), Earth is not the oldest, and it is obviously not a natural death. Since that’s the case, there is a possibility of avoiding it.”

"I am pursuing this."

The old man ended with simple words, but Shuoyue remained silent, her eyes filled with respect as she looked at him.

Because in this room, all the books, all the materials, everything is the result of this predecessor's work.

Using the second magic, "Parallel World Interference," they constantly traversed world lines to conduct various experiments. Countless failures, countless summaries, and countless restarts resulted in a wealth of data and experimental reports that could fill an entire library.

After tens of thousands of experiments, Marie Curie finally extracted one-tenth of a gram of radium chloride, becoming one of the most outstanding and famous women in the world.

The Marshal of the Demonic Path, who should have enjoyed supreme power, has been locked in the cracks of time and space ever since the great battle with Zhu Yue in 300 AD, repeating the process of achieving nothing for thousands of years, unwavering in his resolve.

This is the Second Magician, a disciple of the Magic King Solomon, a pioneer dedicated to opening up the future.

Those who hold salaries for everyone should not be frozen to death in the wind and snow; those who open the way for freedom should not be trapped in thorns.

Shuoyue straightened her back and looked intently at this senior.

"How can I help you?"

This is a statement of her position. Although it is unknown why Aozaki Aoko, the Fifth Magician, did not appear, Sakugetsu is undoubtedly declaring that she will stand on the same side as the Jewel King.

“I have nothing to ask of you.” The old man looked at the spirited young man and forced a dry smile. “I am old and have lost the right to grow, but you are different. You can continue to walk, as a human being.”

He paused for a moment, then continued, “I have already abandoned the world you are going to. The Ainsworth family was just a pawn I casually placed. I no longer care about the outcome. But since you have ties to that world, I will say a few more words.”

"First of all, that world is beyond saving. Earth's great source has been depleted. Experiments simulating 'Steel Earth' will only lead humanity into the abyss."

"But if it's you, then there's still hope. If you use the Holy Grail to fill the void in the world, you can still make a living for a long time."

"Don't you want me to try to reverse this ending?" Shuoyue laughed. "That world is a miniature garden modeled after the Steel Earth. It wouldn't be right to just abandon it like this, would it?"

"Even on the verge of death, he didn't summon UO, which means that the depletion of the Great Source is not the cause of the Steel Land. That's enough for me," the old man said calmly. "If you insist on being the savior, that's fine too. I will give you the necessary identity and information, and you can have whatever you want in that world."

During the conversation, the fate of a worldline was decided.

"It's almost time, the candidate for the Third Magician." The old man waved his hand, and the boundaries around him suddenly blurred, the original spacetime trajectory pulling at the youth who did not belong here.

"I will remain trapped here, searching for that miracle. As for you, carry on with your sins—"

Shuoyue felt himself escaping from this space-time rift. The old man's voice grew increasingly faint, yet it was deeply etched into his heart like a brand.

"I, as the Grand Marshal of the Demonic Path, the Second Mage, and the Savior of the World, hereby declare:"

"You are allowed to destroy the world."

"You are permitted to destroy the stars."

"You are allowed to trample on hope."

"You are allowed to betray human principles."

"I will bear all the sins."

"Everything we do is for hope."

One of the original. The strongest species among the other celestial bodies in the solar system. For example, the Moon (the origin of the Type-Moon that the Jewel King killed in his youth), the Moon (the prototype of Princess Arcueid), is the UO of the Moon; in addition, the giant spider ORT that appeared in Lostbelt 2.7 did not come from Mercury, but from the Oort Cloud (the collection of all comets in the solar system). Because it preyed on the UO of Mercury, it was summoned by Earth in place of the latter, but landed in contemporary South America due to a mistake in timing.

Chapter 226 Karen Altasia and Illyasviel

Chapter 226 Kallen Altasia and Illyasviel (Magical Girl Version)

That happened after the new moon was transported to the Fate/Zero timeline, at the Ainsworth family's residence.

"You mean, spacetime fluctuated for a moment?"

"Yes, at first I thought it was the effect of the Exorcism Sword, but later I found that this fluctuation and the waveform that appeared in the Great Void have the same essence."

"Is that so... Hmph, so you didn't die, you just escaped?"

"I have located that timeline. Shall we proceed with the tracking?"

"No, we don't need to worry about where that man went. The most important thing is to find the Holy Grail. With the help of Emiya's... no, Sakugetsu's timeline, we can reverse the direction of where the Lesser Grail escaped, and then place Class Cards there. By using the pulse of fate they create, we can connect to that world."

"Yes."

"Hmph, that guy never imagined that his shameful act of fleeing would push his sister back into hell."

The Ainsworth family episode thus came to an end.

But now, the gears of fate have begun to turn again.

Vatican.

Ironically, Shuoyue had just returned from Rome in the singularity, and not long after, she returned to the holy city, which was only a few kilometers away from Rome.

Even Nero could not have imagined that, just five hundred years later, Pope Stephen II would establish the religious state she so despised right next to her capital.

"However, I really didn't expect that the identity document the Demonic Marshal gave me would be related to the Holy Church."

Bathed in the holy city's light, the white-haired, golden-eyed Shuoyue slowly walked forward, entering the Roman basilica-style St. Peter's Basilica with Kato Danzo.

As soon as I entered, I bumped into a figure about to leave.

"Hey, whose kid is this? This isn't a place for you."

A melodious, bell-like voice rang out. Shuoyue tilted her head slightly and saw a petite girl with fair skin.

She had the same eye color as Shuoyue, but her hair was a more lustrous silver-white. Although her chest wasn't as full as it seemed, the curves it outlined were still alluring. Her seemingly aloof face concealed all desire, but Shuoyue knew in her heart what kind of seductive and unrestrained attire was hidden beneath her solemn and dignified nun's habit.

In the church filled with dazzling paintings and sacred statues, she was like a devout nun, deeply concealing the unfathomable darkness within herself.

"Karen Ordesia".

Some people may not be familiar with her, but they will definitely not be unfamiliar with her father—Kirei Kotomine, who abandoned her when she was young, and her mother Claudia committed suicide, so she was raised by a strict priest.
