The Holy Grail War Blessed by the Gods

At this point, only Nikitich recognized Ilya and advised the Grand Duke to invite Ilya over so that he could apologize to him in person.

The Grand Duke hurriedly dispatched Amyusha Popovich, and when that failed, he sent Chulila Plenković, but the matter was still not resolved. In the end, it was Nikić who intervened and persuaded Ilya to return to resolve the issue.

With his smooth-talking and tactful nature, Nikitich possessed the ability to maintain friendly relations with most people and accomplished numerous diplomatic missions.

Nikitich arrived at Ilya's summons, wielding only his pure white, gleaming weapon. As for the three-headed dragon Golinich, who was killed by Nikitich with his hat as a Noble Phantasm, he did not bring it with him.

The warriors who appeared at Ilya's call were still the same brave men who roamed the land of Ross in the story, and they remained in the same state as when they were alive, only holding the weapons they used in the past.

But none of that matters. The brave warriors who arrived are there only to create an unparalleled military force.

The blizzard that raged across the land of Ross, originating from the sword of Ilya, amplified the arrival of the brave warriors.

The numerous brave warriors, fully prepared, will transform into a storm on the land of Ross. With their soaring ambition and high morale, they will charge into battle and vie for supremacy, forming an endless army.

The sky, the earth, and the knights, saints, and heroes who roam this land—all of these constitute the land of ancient Rus', forming the landscape of this world.

Unless all of this is utterly destroyed, the land of Ross will not depart, and Ilya, who stands on this land, will never be defeated.

Lightning and storms will shatter and bury all evil and chaos, and abundance and order will be established through the heroic deeds of heroes.

The brave warriors who charged across the Russian plains became one with the storm, their magnificent presence making it seem as if the world had condensed into a single individual.

A terrible storm spread in all directions, like the violent air currents generated by a wielded weapon. (8)

This was a heroic strike, a resolute decision made by all warriors, to cleave through the calamity that sought to destroy the world and relentlessly ravaged this land. 4

"The guardian of Kievan Rus', what a clever fellow. While he might not be quite qualified to be a collaborator, he's more than adequate for this land. Perhaps it's best to prepare for proper rest and recuperation for now." (Er)

The hero's resolve before us is not the complete picture; what should appear is the final scene that should appear in the complete epic of heroes, the final scene known as the death of a hero. 9.

However, the incomplete arrival of the warriors, and the unexploded divine fragments and divine factors, prevented this scene from unfolding.

After all, if that scene were to occur, Ilya himself should also face his end after swinging his sword. The death of the brave warriors is the final scene of the Song of Heroes, with many brave warriors rushing towards their final fate.

The sword was swung again, and the attack was the largest blow that Ilya could unleash under normal circumstances. If the land of Ross were to truly perish, it would instead fall into a state of destruction.

At this moment, countless storms converged, completely tearing apart the earth and air, and also trying to rip apart the figure calling for lightning ahead.

"Brave warriors who should be heading towards death, come to my paradise. You are welcome here. Pass through the silent darkness, and at the end of the road I will allow you to reach my kingdom."

The lightning vanished silently, leaving behind only an endless sea of ​​darkness, with only a black sun rising from the sea to illuminate the world.

The powerful storm tore the sea apart, but it did not sever the world; instead, the storm itself was subsided.

The expressions on the faces of the charging warriors shifted from high spirits to confusion, becoming divided as each walked on a dark, deserted road.

"Since it has no further use, let it reflect as it pleases. Here, everything belongs to the Almighty God."

The mighty storm vanished inexplicably, and the warriors who had gathered together scattered in the dark road, lost and forgetting their purpose.

In the blink of an eye, only Ilya remained, still moving forward. But even he had lost the storm beside him, and even his armor and the sword stuck in it melted away like snow.

"That's enough."

Chapter Fifty-Seven: The Mist

Continue wandering this dark road, until you truly reach its end, which will be the moment of death.

Only the fearless warriors step into the trap of death, while the cowardly who show no fear escape by fleeing out of terror. (Noon)

Death lies ahead, and cowards who would flee in panic are not welcome. But the brave must not die yet; the journey is only halfway complete, and to hastily cross it now would be a waste.

Manju stopped everything, reclaiming his darkness, but he could only reclaim a small portion, having wasted too much in the moment he exercised his power. (Liu)

The black sun, reflected on the inky water, seemed to have lost its light, turning into a dull black. (Six)

Although it sounds strange, that dark sun did once reflect light; it was originally the sun that illuminated the world.

"I acknowledge your strength and your will. I allow you to continue forward. Come before me; I will be there waiting for you." — He

After uttering his words, Manjushri transformed into a gust of wind and departed. It was just a few gentle breezes, but they carried away all the dust from this land. (Temple)

Even the shattered ruins will be swept away by the wind, and the raging flames of war will depart with them; all the brave will be rewarded. (II)

The departed will rise as smoke, the victorious living will reap glory, and the blowing wind will complete all the unfinished things on this land.

"This was something we couldn't take with us anyway, so let's use it here since we've taken it from here."

The light emanating from the heart of the mountain brought forth this scene, but what it utilized most was merely something that had been transformed from the ethereal into reality, existing on this land—was it perhaps a curse?

But whatever that thing was, there was no need to take it away. Jerusalem had been pacified, leaving only a scene of devastation.

The Lion King's holy city was built directly on Jerusalem. The city, which already existed, could not have been buried; it could only have been erased.

However, once the singularity ends, the distorted things will be corrected, but the people here probably can't wait that long.

They are fighting for their beliefs, for the land they live on, and they feel it is worth doing even if it is only for the sake of reward.

An invisible wind scatters the memories of Jerusalem, etching its image into those memories of curses and hatred.

Jerusalem was recreated in the wind, leaving the mountain people outside the city speechless.

They witnessed Camelot disappear and then saw Jerusalem rise from the ground, but the rising Jerusalem vanished in an instant, turning back into black mud.

At this moment, under the blowing wind, it's as if the scene of the Holy King David establishing Jerusalem here is being recreated, with the buildings appearing like a documentary playing in fast-forward.

"The Jerusalem that rose after the destruction of Camelot was nothing but the trick of a false prophet who spoke blasphemous words and did this by false authority. Now this city is Jerusalem."

Manju appeared beside the Chaldea group, who had been safely placed on the ground, and spoke to Hassan beside him.

"The matter here is considered settled, but an even greater disaster is yet to come. In the distant desert, the beasts of the Food City are gestating."

"Evil beast?"

"Oh, you don't know yet. You, the evil one who pursues human sins and creates a prosperous city of sin, have already appeared here."

"Human evil...that is...could it be...?"

Upon hearing what Manju said, Mashu, who had asked the question, widened her eyes.

"Yes, the Beast class, one of the evils that humanity should eliminate, but what is here is only its juvenile form. She is the true culprit behind this singularity that has not yet been repaired."

Any remaining doubts will become clear when you travel to that desert; everything is already written on this land.

Manju told the few people who were still unclear about the situation outside the city about this matter, and then officially disappeared and returned to the tower where he was.

“Just now, a terrifying magical power was generated in the fortress where that king was. The entire singularity was shaken by the erupting magical power, but it was hidden in the Lion King’s action of consolidating the singularity. I have only just analyzed the difference.”

Dr. Roman, who had been silent until now, spoke up.

　Yue Fei〖Qun′≮：⑻五㈦∨◎⒍？ ↓6々〗3＃｛驷※＄si ai……

The fortress in the distance is now in complete disarray. The entire fortress, which was being mobilized at full capacity, has encountered problems due to its high-load and high-precision operation. The failed attack has drained the fortress's stored magic power, and it is also drawing magic power from the guest at an extremely high power.

The immense magical power manifested as light and heat, causing many buildings to show signs of being unable to withstand it, resulting in varying degrees of melting and destruction.

The central tower, acting as a container, bore the weight of the anticipated full-force attack, its surface covered with traces of damage from the intense heat.

Only the throne where Manju stood was still relatively intact; the space beneath the tower was utterly empty, and nothing could be constructed there.

Everything that was possessed, everything that existed, even everything that was imagined, was annihilated. No matter could exist anymore, creating a scene like a vacuum.

However, the beast that originally stood here has indeed been destroyed, and it will probably be difficult for her to extend her tentacles again in the short term.

What needs to be done now is to use this time to repair and improve everything to a perfect level, and then deal with whatever may come in the distant desert.

"Still nothing can be seen... Even though it has been injured, it can still maintain the sandstorm, preventing us from taking the opportunity to see what is in the desert."

Manshu withdrew his gaze with some regret. With the matter settled here, he didn't even rush to repair the damaged fortress, but instead looked towards the desert.

But in the end, they gained nothing; all they could see was the outermost edge of the sandstorm.

"The aura surrounding Nitocris remained unmoved. Did she fail to meet Osmandis, or did she never even reach Egypt?"

When Manjus had only discovered some clues and hadn't actually caught any trace of the beast, he sent Nitocris a message for him.

But to this day, the contract planted by Manjustra remains unbroken; Nitocris is still alive, but she has not been able to see Osmandis.

Currently, it can only be confirmed that Nitocris is still alive, and it's highly likely she hasn't directly come into contact with the beast. 9

Only if even the eyes of Horus were veiled could the ancient Queen of the Sky be bewitched.

Chapter Fifty-Eight: The Return

The Chaldea group didn't rest in Camelot for too long, as the singularity hadn't been corrected yet, and they weren't in a state where they could rest.

Furthermore, the information Manshu revealed upon his departure only added to the unease; perhaps it would be better to return and gather more information. Three

As for the Hassans, Hundred Faces and Tranquility were left in Jerusalem, only Cursed Arms returned with them. V.

According to him, the presence of Jingmi and Baimao was enough to organize the mountain people, and his current state made it inconvenient for him to meet with people. (vi)

On their way back, the group encountered Tawara Tota and Sanzo, who were being held captive by Ilya. Ilya, out of kindness, stopped them. ④

Ilya, the guardian of the sacred mountain, led them into the mountains, but they could not go any further until they crossed the sacred mountain that maintained the balance of the three realms.

This still caused the two people here some trouble, but after they overcame Ilya's obstruction, everything came to an end.

This led to frequent bickering between the two, who had temporarily formed a master-disciple relationship, until the Chaldea group arrived and ended the matter.

After learning that the Lion King had been defeated, and that the matter was not yet over, the two joined the party together.

“Masters from Chaldea, please allow me to travel with you. We are heading in the same direction, and we share the same goal.”

A rough and bold voice came from behind the group, accompanied by the sound of footsteps that slightly shook the ground.

“It was you…! It was he who stopped us at Jerusalem and prevented us from coming to your aid.”

Upon hearing the voice behind them, Tawara Tota and Sanzo recognized it and turned around to see Ilya appearing on the horizon.

"That's right, that's me."

Ilya didn't deny it, and nodded openly in response, quickly catching up with the group from the horizon.

"In my perception, there was an unimaginable evil lurking beneath that pristine white chalk city. Those who would encounter such a thing would only face destruction or depravity, thus hindering your progress."

You are the remaining force of hope in this land; there's no need to waste your lives on a place where death would be meaningless. At this fork in the road, I still have experience facing death; I won't die so easily.

Ilya explained to the group at a leisurely pace. (Book search group: ba■○wu＞—qi“；liu∮liu,san「sisi．÷er)

"But I really didn't expect that there was an even more powerful hero here first. That god-king from a distant land single-handedly defeated the source of the corruption lurking here, and the terrible scene that I was supposed to influence did not happen."

There's no need to look at me with suspicion; I have no reason to tell such a pointless lie. My name is Ilya Muromts, not a particularly famous name, but it should be enough to vouch for me.”

"Ilya Muromts?"

Fujimaru Ritsuka turned to look at Mash. This name was indeed not as world-famous as Hercules or King Arthur.
