Walking in the Question and Answer System of Heroic Spirits

"Could it be that the person who died in that place was...?"

"Go back."

The masked girl turned and walked deeper into the cave.

Weber: "Hey, hey, could this guy be...?"

Kiritsugu Emiya: "It seems highly likely that it's Gray, the one who was found dead."

Kenneth: "This village has a lot of secrets hidden in it."

【"Wait a moment!"】

Grey tried to give chase, but the skeletal soldiers held her back.

[In her desperation, Gray immediately tried to clear a path with a battering ram, but the scythe in her hand did not respond.]

"I'm sorry... Grey..."

[Yad's hoarse voice rang out, then there was no further response.]

"Yad?"

Grey was stunned by the situation again and almost got hit by the skeleton soldier, but luckily the Second King intervened in time.

Rin Tohsaka: "What exactly is this Holy Lance?"

Weber: "Perhaps, it was influenced by something."

Faced with countless skeletal soldiers, Gray grew increasingly exhausted.

Because the magic in this place is extremely scarce, her ability to absorb surrounding magic has dropped to less than half of its normal capacity.

The Second Lord unleashed a magic bullet in an attempt to rescue Grey, but it was merely a drop in the ocean.

"Yad! Yad! Yad..."

[At this point, Gray was completely powerless, collapsing to the ground, clutching her scythe and calling out repeatedly.]

However, this usually sharp-tongued box offered no response whatsoever.

"Yad! Please, Yad!"

At this point, Grey completely broke down, clutching her scythe like a child and crying out, "Wake up, Yard!"

The scythe, which had been motionless, suddenly emitted a bright light.

The wife said, "Poor child, bearing pressure that he shouldn't have to at such a young age."

Rin Tohsaka: "It's glowing! Is it about to awaken?"

Meanwhile, above, at the church.

Fernand and Ilumia have now returned.

"You understand, right, priest?"

Ilumia held up the letter she had just received with a show of pride, raising her chin as she spoke.

【"Yes."】

Fernand made the sign of the cross and slowly said, "When the time is right, I will kill the son of the god of this land."

"Just as our predecessors once guided powerful deadlings calling themselves Blackmores to the other side on this very land."

The two slowly entered the storage room. Seeing the hole in the floor, Fernando covered his face in obvious annoyance.

"Ah, so things have turned out exactly as that guy named Hartles said?"

Lion Jie Li: "That's quite a lot of information."

Rin Tohsaka: "No, they're the ones who killed Gray underground."

Kenneth: "It's not surprising at all that the Church of Christ would do something like this."

Weber: "I really didn't expect that Hartres would have a connection with Priest Fernand. And what did he mean by that? Did Hartres already foresee this situation?"

Kenneth: "Hartles is really becoming more and more of a mystery."

[On the other side, behind the church.]

[Upon returning to his humble abode, Bersak suddenly looked up, for he heard crows cawing incessantly.]

"...Grey."

[Belsaq, his face bitter, slowly picked up the axe leaning against the wall of the dilapidated house.]

"I don't want this day, this night, to come."

Rin Tohsaka: "Why does it feel like everyone knows about their operation?"

Lion Robber Jie Li: "That's not surprising. If the real cemetery is underground, then it's not surprising that Belsak, the gravedigger, has some warning methods."

The scene transitions to a completely dark environment.

[“Wa ...

"Hi, you're awake."

The pensive boy suddenly rolled over and sat up, rubbing his eyes vigorously to clear his head.

"Oh no! You're a stranger, right?!"

"Hmm, I don't remember introducing myself, so you're right."

The young man, with his eyes closed, said calmly, "I didn't expect you to interfere with the spell from there."

"The Atlas Institute's spellcasting is fundamentally different from the Clock Tower's, yet you analyzed it almost improvised, managing to reverse the flow. Frankly, this is a field almost unrelated to a magician's skill, but it's undeniably beyond reason. What is your background?"

Chapter 240: The Knights of the Round Table Whose Faces Were Obscured

[Flatter: "Yes! We are Flatter Escaldes, and the dog!"]

[Sphen: "Stop with the leisurely self-introduction! Do you even know my name is Doggy?!"]

[Flatter: "No, because the professor said that greetings are the foundation of being human! Without the magic of dogs, I wouldn't be able to forcefully interfere with that kind of thing!"]

[Sphinx: "I didn't tell you to do it! You took it upon yourself to steal someone else's magic and abuse it! Don't go around telling everyone it's like I helped you!"]

Looking at the noisy teenagers, Tsbia smiled faintly and said, "Ah, so this is the legendary El-Melloi classroom?"

"Because neither of you were in the village at that time, this cannot be used for a reenactment. I'm very sorry, but I hope you accept this."

[Sphinx: "What does this mean?"]

[Tsbia: "Just as I meant."]

[A crystal-like sphere floated beside him, reflecting a dim scene.]

Emiya Kiritsugu: "As expected, the whole time travel thing was just an illusion."

Lion's Tribulation: "Don't jump to conclusions yet, it doesn't seem that simple."

[Flatter: "Teacher! Little Grey!"]

"Actually, I didn't expect that situation either. Although I prepared many scripts and willingly endured many endings, I never even imagined such a scene."

[Tsbia scratched his head and said, "The riddle I gave you is extremely simple. As I expected, they will solve it. They will investigate the girl who died there. Why did she die? Why did it happen at that time? They will embark on an ancient mystery hidden in the catacombs and villages. This is a very familiar development in detective novels. Given their intellect and abilities, they will get there sooner or later anyway."]

"Of course, success or failure is another matter, so the possibility that they died during the exploration process is also quite high."

"Ah, it might be because of your relationship."

"To be on the safe side, let me clarify first that I am not angry. It is only natural that drama can change in countless ways depending on what happens on stage or with the actors, and the audience's reaction. A drama without improvisation and flaws may be perfect, but it lacks vitality. At the very least, drama performed by living beings and watched by living beings should be full of vitality."

"But...ah, I really miss those informal times."

Rin Tohsaka: "Damn it! Is this guy watching a movie?!"

Lion's Tribulation: "As expected, it's not just an illusion."

Kenneth: "Zsbia, why do you want them to uncover the truth of what happened back then?"

The scene slowly zooms in inside the crystal ball.

At this moment, both King George II and Grey were stunned into silence.

As the light faded, a silver knight appeared before them.

"Hello, hello..."

The knight raised his sword, let out a sigh, and then the blade swept across the ground.

Several silver streaks flashed through the darkness, and hordes of skeletal soldiers fell to the ground in the blink of an eye.

"A bunch of selfish bastards. They actually forced their way in? There's a limit to rudeness. Thanks to you, I haven't even fully formed my Spirit Origin yet."

[This figure was extremely blurry, unlike the Faker we'd seen before; he wasn't fully materialized. His armor and skin were both hazy, as if shrouded in mist.]

Waver: "Is this... a Heroic Spirit?"

Rin Tohsaka: "But why is it so blurry? It feels like a soul that could disappear at any moment."

Rebellious Knight: "This guy looks kind of familiar..."

Artoria: "That tone... could it be...!"

"Basically, putting aside the other knights' idiots, what use am I, who thinks all Heroic Spirits are bullshit? I'm neither an immortal knight nor a diligent one; I only have the strength of three of these guys at most. Sigh, if I were to face a foolish giant, I might be able to use my silver tongue to cut off its head."
