I, the Masked Swordsman, started my journey through a Lostbelt.

Artoria and Duve have formed a contract.

It seems that a very special relationship has been reached.

Another Servant became his fangs, and Lostbelts undoubtedly took their combat power to the next level.

All that's left to deal with is Mordred.

"Mordred, what are your thoughts? I'd like to hear them."

Du Wei walked up to Mordred.

Mordred felt incredibly conflicted when he saw Artoria and Morgan following behind him.

For her, they were the two most important people in her past life.

They are all in front of me now.

If it's my fault that my father has become so dark, then I have no reason not to take responsibility...

I can simply make decisions based on my own thoughts.

It was as if he had rebelled against King Arthur during his lifetime, the reason being his hatred stemming from the king's disapproval.

There's also the deep sorrow for her.

This time, I want to be by her side and see things from a different perspective.

"I can sign a contract with you, but only if you spare my Master, as well as Mash and Ritsuka."

Mordred made this statement to Duve.

She doesn't dislike the Master, Luna, in this Holy Grail War, and she also feels good about Ritsuka and Mash.

There's no need to drag these three people into her affairs.

"Okay. I can assure you that we won't attack them. Shouldn't that make you agree?"

Du Wei agreed very readily.

It seems like he never considered the three of them as targets from the beginning, or perhaps he simply didn't care.

"Tch, I knew I was still annoyed with you... The contract is established. Are you satisfied now?"

Mordred was not very friendly.

I was annoyed by Du Wei's nonchalant attitude from the beginning.

I always experience frustration from him.

Mordred's dislike for Dewey wasn't without reason; it was simply a twist of fate.

Du Wei wouldn't care too much.

How is the Greater Grail currently functioning?

"The energy is plentiful. I just need to make some adjustments later, and then it can be started as planned."

Morgan gave them a reply.

This Holy Grail War has come to an end.

There's nothing more to do in this pan-human history; now it's time to return to the fairy kingdom of Britain.

"The Greater Grail will be seized by us, the Extraordinary Ones."

Du Wei made a declaration as if he had won a victory.

Meanwhile, the Sky Garden arrived above the ruins of the royal city.

It released a tremendous suction force from the central spell, shattering the ground along with it and drawing it into the vortex.

The Great Grail, hidden deep underground, revealed its brilliance.

"That's the Greater Grail—!?"

Mashu and Ritsuka were filled with shock.

Their target for this singularity is in the air.

However, obtaining it is extremely difficult.

With only two people remaining, Chaldea was unreachable, and even taking a single step was incredibly difficult.

"Chaldea, this can be considered our first battle. The first battle of the war is pretty much over. You should savor the bitterness that this battle will bring."

Du Wei then addressed the Chaldean side.

A gaze imbued with spiritual pressure descended upon them, its gloomy tone echoing through the ruins of the royal city.

"Um... Senior... I'll protect you...!"

Mashu bravely took the first step despite the pressure.

117

She is quite powerful in terms of spirit.

This pure will and soul was so dazzling that even Du Wei couldn't help but admire it.

He laughed, a laugh that seemed to both pity and mock his overestimation of his abilities.

The devastation brought by the heavy spiritual pressure is controlled and presented with a mindset that will not destroy but will cause you pain.

Chaldea, or rather, pan-human history.

His real enemy is the official history that denies them.

"Still not afraid even at this point? How adorable. But you are too fragile right now, which is not good."

Chaldea cannot be destroyed yet.

They also need to guide people's thinking towards freezing.

"Rest assured, I will not harm you. I promised Mordred I would keep you safe. So celebrate, Chaldea. You have successfully repaired the Singularity, defeated us Outcasts, and won this precious victory."

Du Wei sincerely congratulated Chaldea.

But the more sincere one is, the more disgusting it becomes.

It was clearly a crushing defeat; with such combat power, they were beaten almost to a pulp.

Now, however, they loudly offer their congratulations.

How ironic, how ridiculous.

"Congratulations, revel in love and peace. This is my heartfelt blessing to Chaldea."

Du Wei once again offered his blessings to the battered and bruised women.

The two Chaldea members are currently unable to move.

They couldn't even launch an attack on Lostbelts and others, and reclaiming the Holy Grail had long been a pipe dream.

Such praise sounds extremely grating.

In the sky, the Greater Grail was gradually being swallowed up by the Hanging Gardens, and its holy radiance was slowly being consumed.

That's about enough.

As he prepared to draw his sword, Du Wei turned around and took a step in a certain direction.

"...etc!"

Ritsuka shouted as if she was unwilling to give up.

He roared out the words with all his might, and the cold sweat forced out by the pressure had already soaked his back.

They were unwilling to give up so easily.

So many heroic spirits sacrificed themselves for them, yet now they can only meet this end.

"If you don't want to die, it's best to stay put. If you want to see the truth, you'll have the chance to see it in the near future; I believe that day isn't far off..."

Du Wei turned to the two of them and gave them a teasing smile.

Then his figure disappeared from everyone's sight, and the pressure that had almost crushed the surrounding air suddenly vanished.

"Hoo... Haa...!"

Mashu and Ritsuka were able to catch their breath.

I cannot understand the specific meaning behind Du Wei's words.

Could we see it again in the process of resolving the incident of burning down humanity?

No, not likely.

I couldn't sense any aura from Du Wei that was similar to that of the Magic King; the two were completely different beings.

They are fundamentally different in nature.

Chaldea couldn't figure out what was going on.
