The Holy Grail War Blessed by the Gods

Although they didn't know the other party's identity at the beginning, how could they not know by now?

It is a creature born from the principle of depravity, a beast that appears to savor the disgust of a city that has reached its peak of prosperity in an era and is now corrupt.

Its name is the Beast of Sodom, the beast that destroyed the great city of Babylon in the New Testament, a beast that came from beyond the waves.

The place where that beast landed was a desert littered with bones, a land where no one lived and no one could survive.

This place is a Jewish curse, modeled after the curse that the Jews, who were taken captive and enslaved in Babylon, hurled at Babylon.

"The wild beasts of the desert and the wild beasts of the island will live there, the owls will live there, it will never be inhabited, never be inhabited for generations."

This fueled the anger and hatred surrounding the Tower of Babel and the city of Babylon, leading to a curse and destruction.

Water evaporates instantly upon hitting the ground, making it impossible for humans to survive; only curses linger there. Meanwhile, magical beasts lurk in the desert, eyeing their prey.

This floor was built specifically for murder. In this illusory tower, a series of levels are formed by illusory curses, which fit perfectly.

However, it is still difficult to stop a beast one by one, even if it is just a juvenile beast.

This is not like the beasts we encountered in Tokyo, although those could also be considered juveniles, they were essentially just hatched from eggs.

The difference in power between the two is still vast. The beast spirit base below possesses at least a level beyond the norm, and the desert she just stepped into is already being shaken.

The depravity that flowed from the cup was instantly evaporated by the desert, but how much depravity was contained within that golden cup!

The endless flow of decadent desires was enough to break through this desert and eventually flow across this land.

The lingering curse could not stop them; the beasts rushing out of the desert were torn apart by the dragon-scaled hand.

"Go and become the setting sun, and burn the world and everything with crimson heavenly fire."

However, the desert merely provides the battlefield; the curses and various powers it creates are only supplementary.

Manjuscan waved his hand, summoning back the golden sun that had fallen earlier in order to raise Tescatlipoca.

Manju lifted Sekhmet, who was lying on his lap, and the obedient cat stood up and jumped off Manju's hands, running headlong into the approaching golden sun.

The ferocious lion reappeared, adorned with dazzling golden fur, carrying heat and anger, transforming into a fervent sun as it set.

……

"Whether I defeat you again or am slain by your blade, the future of the Holy Capital will not change."

When the Tower of the End appears, our mission will be over. All that remains is for us at the Round Table to decide how we will each die for the King.

Gawain, who had come alone, addressed the crowd.

"It seems so. Your resolve remains unchanged. You will remain the sword of the king until the very last moment. Even exposing the Lion King's crimes here and impeaching the Holy City cannot stop you."

Bedwell said solemnly, looking at Gawain walking towards him in the sunlight.

"Of course. When I was summoned here, the king said to me, 'Sun Knight, another holy swordsman. This time, you may go and fulfill your wish.'"

The king said he would do anything—leave the holy city, even attack the king. You would never understand the joy I felt then. You would never understand how I was by his side when he was in trouble, witnessing his death.

I was once known as the king's right arm, yet I failed to set aside my personal grudges, which led to the king's death. I cannot repeat such a foolish mistake.

Why do you think only a few of us remained at the Round Table in the Holy City? After being summoned by the King, they displayed loyalty to him in what was called the Rebellion Flag.

Therefore, Knight Bedivere, the infighting at the Round Table is not your exclusive privilege. We who swore allegiance to the Lion King are already sinners, and no matter what happens, we will never betray him.

So draw your sword, Bedivere, knight.

Gao Wenxian drew his sword, and Cavendish's flames were hotter than the sunlight in the sky.

Chapter Forty-Three: Melee

"Is your goal simply to drag the rest of you here? You've only brought a false shell with you, and apart from the decadent desires that fill your cup, there's nothing real about you."

The desert that had been built beneath Manjushri had been completely burned by the heavenly fire, and the barren desert had turned into a burning lake, the flowing water being the melted sand.

But the girl in red continued to walk among them as if nothing was wrong. Beside her, the crimson body of the demon beast was constantly being burned and destroyed by flames, only to be reborn again.

All that overflows is the desire for depravity, which constantly resists and erodes this desolate desert scorched by heavenly fire.

The standoff between the two sides has lasted for some time. Sekhmet, who controls the sand and fire, is the ruler of this space under the authority granted by Manshu.

For the first time, Sekhmet truly unleashed the power that had destroyed the Egyptian emperor, constantly tearing apart the body of the demon beast He and relentlessly knocking down the surging tide of desire.

Despite being within the domain constructed by Manjushri, and being hated and rejected by this land, there should be no beasts that can draw magic power from the great source of this region, yet they seem to possess an inexhaustible source of power.

被兽9物召唤而来0的那些魔兽赫4只是虚8假的空壳，被4她以自身2的力9量所召唤出来0，当作5构建基础防线的造物。

The surging tide is the real power; it is the decadent desire truly stored in the cup, full of ominous aura and misty filth.

But not here, but in the distant holy city, things are still changing.

The body of the demon beast He that appeared next to the beast was just a fabricated empty shell, so where is the real demon beast He?

Right here in the burning holy city, that chalky capital is collapsing and being destroyed.

The knights who were originally guarding the city were gradually fleeing, and the soldiers who had lost their will to fight were running away from the land they had been defending.

The polluted city is no longer as impregnable as it once was, and the city walls that stretched for kilometers are gradually collapsing and being destroyed.

The ground beneath the city was constantly shaking, collapsing and cracking, which was why the city walls were destroyed.

And within that shattered land, a crimson hue emerges, marking the edge of the earth, a crimson erosion, and the demonic beast, He, reshaping the land beneath its surface.

Just like the Demon Pillars' ability to create singularities, the Demon Beast Kaku also possesses an even more powerful spirit origin.

Using what can be described as the core of a magic furnace, they employed a large number of magic generation circuits to transform the land they inhabited into a land under their control and domination.

"What you protect and what I protect are incompatible! I'll ask you one last time: What is your sword?"

However, the tremors outside the city did not affect the people inside. Before the city collapsed completely, those who came here with their own purposes would not change their actions.

"Then I will answer you! My right arm is the end of loyalty, the proof of irreparable sin. What I dream of seeing is the figure of the king, to truly save that lone figure that keeps moving forward."

Anyone who dares to obstruct me will be executed without mercy! My one arm is now a silver arm!

Bedivere raised his right arm, unleashing the light within it, drew the sword from his waist, and pointed it at his former colleague.

The sun, shining brightly in the sky, disappeared into the clouds, and the radiance of the silver arm severed the Lion King's blessing.

"Then crush you and this arm together! Old Round Table, the last echo of the chivalry of good! Now is the time for your martyrdom!"

Even without the sun, the holy sword Cavendish can still unleash its fiery passion. Even if the sun in the sky loses its light, Cavendish can still transform into the sun.

The light of the gods and the fire of the sun—the two roundtables exerted all their efforts to practice their beliefs here.

"That was a battle between the two of them. Lord Bedivere wouldn't lose either."

Neither Fujimaru Ritsuka nor Cursed Arm Hassan intervened, while Arash simply drew his bowstring and gently released the arrow.

The arrow shot by Arash exploded in mid-air, but to the naked eye, the magical arrow clearly did not hit anything before it exploded.

“Tristan... I thought you wouldn’t dare show your face again after you ran away.”

"Even though I am bound by blessings, I cannot control myself in this sad scene of fighting each other at the round table. Let me cut off Bedivere's head and stop this tragedy."

Tristan shook his head as he walked out from the bridge connecting the city center to the surrounding buildings, uttering a lament while playing an invisible arrow.

"I finally made it...that's great."

Lancelot, clad in purple armor, rode up from the side. As soon as the horse reached him, it collapsed to its knees. Lancelot then jumped off and drew his holy sword from his waist.

Without further words, the melee unfolded beneath the royal city.

"It seems we missed it entirely. That pristine white city has actually been captured. No wonder they were able to rescue you. But I suppose it's also because I've been praying for you day and night."

Not far from the Holy City, Tawara Fujita and Sanzang were also heading towards this place.

After finding Sanzang, Tawara Tota originally intended to head to Higashi no Mura based on the directions given to him by the Hasas.

But on the way, they saw the aerial fortress disappearing into the distance, so they changed course and headed towards the Holy City, finally arriving before the end.

"It looks like things are in serious trouble. There are at least three or four of those giant snakes that we had to fight off last time. They might actually be in danger once they enter the city."

Tawara Tota's expression wasn't too good; he spoke with a somewhat grave tone.

"And...am I seeing things? Is there a city hidden in the cracks in the earth that have been torn open?"

"Such keen vision, as expected of Archer."

A deep, mature voice accompanied by a flash of lightning brought a massive, giant-like man to the front of Tawara Tota and Sanzo.

"But unfortunately, I can no longer allow you to go any further; that place is no longer human territory."

"Hmm, there are friends in that city who once rescued me from prison. We made a promise to fight side by side again. Even if it's a non-human demon realm or something else, I must step into it."

Tawara Tota looked ahead at the man who was so tall he could be called a giant, with an old face but a perfectly strong body.

An invisible pressure emanated from that muscular body, which shimmered with faint lightning, making it difficult for Tawara Tou to give his answer.

"Then you need not go any further; I will save everyone in that city who deserves to be saved."

Turn to Chapter 44 at the End

Q: "That reason is not enough. You do appear to be a very powerful Heroic Spirit, and perhaps you can quell the previous disaster, but what if my friend is not among the people you are worth saving?"

Tawara Tota did not give in, but instead of rushing to take out the great bow, he asked the question in a calm manner.

"I will gladly kill those who don't need saving; there's no need to inflict pain on anyone."

The giant-like man answered readily, standing before the two like a small hill.

"Then I'm sorry, but I can't agree. If I insist on going forward, what will you do?"

Then, Touya took his bow from his body and asked the question again.

4. "Can you cross the mountains?"

The giant simply asked a question in return. In the eyes of the two, the small giant, who was originally only about three meters tall, suddenly grew infinitely taller. In the blink of an eye, the man standing in front of them had become a mountain.

④“A formidable opponent has arrived. A hero as high as a mountain, a valiant warrior standing on the boundary between man and god, whose voice resounds like thunder.”

(iii) Beneath the cracks in the earth, amidst the crimson hue, stands a city.

The city of Wu is rising steadily, awaiting the complete shattering of the earth, and will appear where the Cretaceous Capital once stood.

(vi) This city of white chalk was built upon another city, upon Jerusalem.

The city that is rising is Jerusalem, a city without people, where only a heroic spirit stands.

That was Jacques de Morais, who had been killed not long ago. This time, Morais appeared even more powerful than before, with dragon-headed monsters surrounding him, and he himself was holding a golden cup filled with corruption.

However, Morai's expression didn't look too good, because the giant that had appeared in front of Tawara Tota had also appeared in front of Morai.
