As the supreme god, I choose to watch movies in the multiverse.

Although she said she hated Alicia, there wasn't much disgust or hatred in her tone; it was just a hint of disdain, like teasing between friends.

After a long-awaited exchange, the banquet officially began.

One by one, faces that didn't appear for long, but left a deep impression on the audience outside the screen, appeared on the screen.

It's worth mentioning that although there seemed to be some rifts between the heroes before, such as Qianjie and Aponia, which almost came to blows.

However... at this moment, there was no conflict between Ying Jie and Ying Jie. They gathered together like brothers and sisters, and even Qian Jie, who usually had the most irritable temper, did not spoil the fun.

There was no other reason than that the main character of this banquet was Alicia. If it was for Alicia, then whatever the heroes did was normal.

Qianjie could suppress his anger and become the driver of the float; Kosmo could overcome his social anxiety and offer a bouquet; Pado was willing to take out her treasured possessions to decorate the venue free of charge; and even little Gretchen had a happy expression when she learned that she needed to draw a picture for her sister Alicia.

And there's Sakura, Aponia, Mebius... every hero offered her the highest level of respect.

Apart from Alicia, no one else in the world would enjoy this level of treatment. This is a time that belongs only to Alicia, and it is the 'love' that the heroes have for Alicia!

In just a few hours, they were able to transform the originally empty and monotonous church into this state; the heroes' ability to act is truly second to none.

Of course... the most important reason is that this was prepared for Alicia.

Although they knew that Alicia held a special position among the heroes, they never expected that the heroes would go to such lengths for her.

The so-called banquet was completely unnecessary from the beginning. If the heroes wanted to help Alicia, there was absolutely no need to prepare such a banquet.

Did they choose to do this simply because Alicia might like it? Just as Alicia loves them, the heroes... also love Alicia.

Hachiman Hikigaya: "Alicia... is it real? There is not a trace of pretense or reluctance in the eyes of the heroes. Every single one of them is doing this for Alicia willingly."

Mei: "I don't know why, but I feel that the scene in front of me is very touching."

Bishop of Destiny: "Alice...you have a group of good companions."

Undeniably, in the hearts of the heroes, Alicia's position is perhaps as important as Kallen's. This may be an exaggeration, but it is certainly a vivid description.

Alicia: "Hmm, to be honest, I'm also a little surprised, the kind of surprise I never expected."

Qianjie: "Hmph, just look at it. Anyway, this will never happen in reality."

Eden: "Not necessarily. Isn't what's shown on the light screen a reality happening in another world?"

In the afterlife, Eden, with a drunken smile, gazed at Alicia in the image, wishing time could stand still forever on Alicia's smile.

"May time stand still at this moment, may you and I... never be apart."

Chapter 104 The Person Yingjie 'Loved'

The bells rang, and although it was a joyous occasion, the banquet eventually had to come to an end.

However, the grander the banquet, the more it needs a performance to elevate it before it ends.

As darkness fell and all the lights suddenly went out, a beam of light shone in the center of the church, where the priest should have been standing.

Immediately afterwards, Velvi changed into the spiral outfit she had worn before using some unknown means, and used the hat on her head as a magician's hat, appearing under the lights.

"Hey, lovely audience, the banquet is drawing to a close, it's time for Vervi to give us a wonderful and magical performance!"

As the sound rang out, Velvi began her magic show in a rather exaggerated voice.

“First, let’s welcome our special guest today, a… shadowy figure that claims to be the Holy Grail consciousness?” Velvi frowned, seemingly troubled about what to call it.

"Never mind, that's not important. As the most special guest of the day, let it serve as a salute to the main character of our banquet, Alicia!"

Suddenly, a cannon appeared on the stage. Its overall color scheme was the same as the color of Vilvi's clothes, but perhaps to complement the atmosphere of the banquet, it was decorated with many flowers.

The Grail consciousness, stripped of its right to speak by Aponia, could only watch helplessly as it was loaded into the cannon like a cannonball.

"Wow, Velvet is so energetic today! Is this some amazing magic trick she's prepared?" Alicia's eyes sparkled with curiosity.

Is this a public execution of the Holy Grail consciousness? Becoming Velvi's magic assistant is no easy task.

Keep in mind that even a fusion warrior like Kosmo, with its exceptional defense and self-healing abilities, couldn't withstand Velvey's torment, let alone a mere Holy Grail consciousness.

"Oh, dear audience, this isn't just a magic show I prepared for you alone." A smug smile played on Wilvi's lips as she said, "Tonight, you will witness a miracle!"

After she finished speaking, she turned around.

"Oh~ it's starting so soon!" Alicia's face showed a hint of anticipation. Meanwhile, sitting across from her, Velvet smiled.

"Boom!" The sound of artillery fire made the entire church tremble.

The church ceiling was punched with a large hole by Velvi's physical magic. Everyone instinctively looked up at the sky, and then... countless fireworks bloomed in the air.

In the quiet night sky, the fireworks display lasted for a long time. Perhaps due to its special properties, the fireworks gradually revealed the colors of crystal flowers.

It looked exceptionally vibrant and beautiful, instantly adding color to the otherwise monotonous night sky.

From the perspective of ordinary magicians, the performance up to this point was already very impressive, and it was time to stop. However... the magic was just a deception by Vilvie.

This level of 'surprise' might be enough for other magicians, but it was far from sufficient for Velvi.

Sure enough, in the night sky ablaze with fireworks, a magical force slowly unfolded, and a massive black mist enveloped the entire sky.

That's right, this is the immense power generated by the Holy Grail consciousness that Velvet launched into the sky, the evil of this world... now unleashing its true power.

"What...what is that?" Pado's voice trembled slightly. Could this be something that Sister Wilvi made?

With a hint of doubt in her heart, although she was very scared, she, who was always extremely sensitive to danger, did not sense any threat in the thick fog.

Eden and Alicia were also quite puzzled by the scene before them. However, since Velvi herself did not react at all, they naturally did not doubt her because they trusted her very much.

Similarly, Kevin simply watched the scene unfold silently from the sidelines.

"Not bad, quite like Vilvie's style. It seems that Aponia's [commandments] are inviolable no matter which creature they are applied to."

Thinking silently to himself, Kevin took a step forward. He was the key player if they wanted to break free from this space.

Since the Holy Grail consciousness was sliced ​​by Möbius, he has thoroughly understood all its structural components, including the evil thoughts it contains.

After the last Holy Grail War ended, the Holy Grail completely fell into corruption, absorbing decades of evil thoughts from the entire human civilization.

Under the influence of this evil thought, although it previously appeared to be just a shameful cup, its abilities were actually second to none.

As an omnipotent wish-granting machine, it may not be truly omnipotent, but it certainly possesses the power and authority to change the world. It incorporates all of humanity's evil intentions and is guided by Aponia's [Commandments].

Now, the true power of the Holy Grail has been unleashed by Aponia.

If it's just within the memory space, it's naturally not clear, but... if you look at the Holy Grail from the outside, you can perceive the changes in the Holy Grail at this moment.

In the outside world, the Holy Grail was gradually enveloped by thick black mist, and King Arthur, who was helping Alicia withstand the damage, showed a look of astonishment.

This unnatural change doesn't seem like a good thing at all. Could it be that Alicia's 'love' for humans was defeated by the malice of humans themselves?

"No, if even Alicia falls..."

A slightly confused look appeared in Saber's eyes. If that were really the case, then the world would truly have no way to escape its fate of destruction. Even if King Arthur was strong, even if he had the protection of Avalon, would he still be unable to protect the world he wanted to protect?

"wwwaaa!!!" The eerie voice still lingered in the sky above Fuyuki City, waking Saber from her dazed state.

Avalon's invincible defenses were once again met with a fierce shockwave.

Unharmed, she did not retaliate; she was already quite tired.

It wasn't physical fatigue—she couldn't possibly feel tired with Avalon by her side—nor was it mental exhaustion or spiritual corruption, which was absolutely impossible under Avalon's protection.

This kind of exhaustion is an abstract kind of exhaustion, a helplessness in the face of the enemy. Although the enemy is also helpless against her, the Outer God has no concept of time.

For the Outer Gods, it didn't matter how long they fought Saber, but Saber couldn't keep fighting it indefinitely.

She is not a Heroic Spirit in the traditional sense. Unlike those Heroic Spirits who have 'died,' in a sense, Saber participates in this Holy Grail War as a living person.

This is why she cannot become a spirit particle. Avalon shields her from all external threats and harm. If the Outer Gods really destroy this world, Saber will be powerless to stop them, and may even be exiled to the outside world along with the Outer Gods after the world is destroyed.

Kasumigaoka Utaha: "While Velvet's magic was beautiful, King Arthur is still alive!"

Yukino Yukinoshita: "These two points don't constitute a turning point at all, but it's strange that King Arthur didn't die but became a Heroic Spirit."

Bishop of Destiny: "Indeed, all the Servants who have appeared so far have the power of spirit particle transformation, but King Arthur has never used this ability since the beginning. Therefore, it can be judged that she is indeed different from other Heroic Spirits."

Hachiman Hikigaya: "How exactly did Saber become a Heroic Spirit?"

Saber: "...It's not really a secret. I did become a Heroic Spirit before I died, but it was just a deal I made with the Counter Force when I was on the verge of death."

Conan: "Could you be more specific about the deal?"

Velvi: "Hmph, since she's already said that, of course she won't tell you. Instead of that... you'd better open your eyes and watch Velvi's amazing magic tricks!"

At Vilvi's prompting, everyone turned their attention back to the image on the light screen.

The scene then shifts to the interior of the Holy Grail, where thick malevolence envelops the memory space created by Alicia.

A scene resembling the end of the world appeared before the heroes, and because the Holy Grail itself has the ability to grant wishes, it clashed with Alicia's Origin Herrscher powers.

Perhaps it was due to the blessing of the [Commandments], or perhaps Alicia guessed something and did not resist, but in a short period of time, the Holy Grail actually suppressed the power of the Origin.

The space formed by memories is crumbling, and the surrounding things are turning into light and disappearing.

"So...everyone guessed that these were fake?" Now Alicia understood what Velvet meant by magic.

Was the destruction of the memory space meant to help her? But... as a memory entity, Yingjie would dissipate along with the space unless Dr. Mebius could create twelve physical bodies within a short period of time.

Wait...the physical body? As if she had thought of something, Alicia looked up at the black mist in the sky, her face showing surprise and astonishment.

"Alicia, I told you, you will witness the greatest magician of the Twilight Era, the most amazing magic performance in the history of Velvi!"

Seeing Alicia's surprised expression, Velvi smiled. Having seen Velvi's tricks many times, most of the heroes had already developed the ability to perfectly adapt to whatever unexpected moves Velvi made.

Especially Alicia, although she is always the most supportive, it is not easy to truly surprise Alicia.

Walking up to Alicia, Velvi smiled and said, "What...were you scared?"

"Ah, Velvi... This is truly the most amazing magic I've ever seen!" Alicia smiled, her eyes shimmering with a fluorescent light—those were her tears.
