Walking in the Question and Answer System of Heroic Spirits

Illumia grinned menacingly, leaping into the air in a zigzag motion. She then nimbly stomped across the cave wall, jumping to another, transforming herself into a sharp arrow hurtling towards Gray.

The Second Generation exclaimed in disbelief, "This is too outrageous!"

This woman displayed a speed that even wild beasts could not achieve.

"Teacher, watch out!"

Grey immediately rushed forward and clashed with Illumia.

"I wish you hadn't been born in a village like this."

With a murmur, Ilumia's gauntlets suddenly erupted with powerful purple lightning, poised to claim Gray's life.

Just then, a sound of something hard colliding rang out.

[It was Belsac; he actually blocked Illumia's attack with his axe.]

Rin Tohsaka: "Is this woman even human?! Those movements, that speed, is it really something a human could do?!"

Kotomine Risei: "It's a pity that such a promising talent was sent to a remote area because of his status. He didn't receive proper guidance and even developed a problem with his mentality."

Weber: "But this old man is no ordinary person either; he was able to block the opponent's attack."

Rin Tohsaka: "This village is truly a place where hidden talents reside."

Irumia: "Hmm? I thought you'd just stand by and do nothing."

"Because I am also the gravedigger of Blackmore."

[Using his axe to jam the opponent's gauntlet, Belsac said in a deep voice, "The heir I've chosen says she wants to do something. Therefore, it is my duty to witness her actions."]

Irumia: "Oh, that's a very human touch."

[As she spoke, she swiftly raised her leg, her heel striking down with tremendous force on Belsak's head.]

[Belsaac swiftly dodged, narrowly avoiding the attack. Ilumia's heel grazed his cheek, leaving a gash, before slamming him into the ground, creating a crater.]

[The other party is going straight for the kill, showing absolutely no mercy.]

Even so, Bersak remained steadfast and did not back down.

Waver: "Is this woman a monster?! She looks like she could even fight a Heroic Spirit!"

Rin Tohsaka: "They show no mercy and are determined to take lives."

[Belsauk: "Go, Grey!"]

Encouraged by the shout, Grey immediately sprinted towards the masked girl.

In this diluted magic, she could only barely activate the minimum enhancement, but she still swung her scythe with all her might, repelling hordes of skeleton soldiers and successfully reaching the masked girl.

[Masked girl: "...Why have you come?"]

[Grey: "I've come to see you."]

[Masked girl: "What's your purpose?"]

[Grey: "For the sake of asking you."]

Although the two sides were talking, the skeletal soldiers showed no sign of stopping. Lacking strength, Gray had to multitask, struggling to send them flying.

[Grey: "Are you truly the spirit of King Arthur?"]

[Masked girl: "That's right, I am the directionality of the former king. I am the remains, the afterimage, the sequence preserved for the future."]

The other person's answer terrified Grey because it was so methodical.

This is too extreme, like seeing a list of mathematical formulas laid out in front of you.

If she is the spirit of King Arthur, then what kind of personality did King Arthur possess during his lifetime?

If King Arthur's spirit is her, then is that truly the way the human soul exists?

Rather than being human, they were more like some kind of deity...

Rebellious Knight: "Not at all! This guy doesn't resemble my father at all!"

Lancelot: "Indeed, the king is not so cold."

The wife said, "She certainly doesn't look like Saber."

Feng Xi thought to himself, "Of course it doesn't look like it. This is not a copy of my king's spirit at all."

Just as Gray thought, the spirit of this masked girl was not that of the King at all, but rather that of the deity "Rungomminiad" residing in the Holy Lance.

This is entirely due to Morgan's own misunderstanding; she thought that the King's soul was within the Holy Lance.

"No, I didn't come here to ponder those kinds of things!"

Grey quickly interrupted her reverie, raised her eyes, and asked the question that needed to be asked.

"Have you always been here?"

【"..."】

The masked girl's mind went blank for a moment, a feeling akin to shock.

She seemed to be saying, "Why did you have to ask that?"

"...It's you."

Moments later, the masked girl was born, and this time she actually spoke.

"Ten years ago, I awoke here with you."

Waver: "Ten years ago again! The time when King Arthur was summoned in the Fourth War!"

Kenneth: "Is it some kind of induced spell, that with the arrival of King Arthur's spirit, the replicated body and spirit are brought to completion?"

Kenneth: "But if it's true, what's the underlying principle..."

[Grey: "...and, me..."]

So, she's been living underground for the past ten years?

[Grey: "What about the villagers? Do they even know you exist?"]

[Masked girl: "Only the old woman who is the village leader knows the truth. You seem to call her 'Grandma'? That being said, the organization called 'Church' seems to have vaguely sensed it as well."]

[Grey: "..."]

The war secretly waged in this village was exposed by someone who could be considered another version of herself, while she remained completely unaware for ten years.

Chapter 250 The Gravedigger and the Nun

"I think you should run away, you should run to the ends of the earth."

The masked girl said in a deep voice, "But you're back. Then there's only one thing I need to do... I need to capture you right here!"

[Having said that, the masked girl slowly raised her hand, and a black spear flashed out from it. Gray immediately raised her large scythe to defend herself.]

The shockwave struck the scythe, sending Grey flying.

When Grey stood up again, her knees were trembling slightly.

She knew that, most likely, the other party had held back their power to spare her life. Even so, it still exceeded the limits of the scythe.

To defeat that black holy lance, she would have to unleash it herself.

However, Ad is currently in a deep sleep, unable to unleash the Holy Lance, let alone use even the most basic form transformations.

Rin Tohsaka: "The opponent is very strong."

Webber: "After all, the opponent is someone who can manipulate the Holy Lance after its reversal, and against the weakened Gray, it's a complete crushing defeat."

Lion's Robbery: "The opponent has the advantage of terrain, and the little girl's Holy Lance is dormant. The situation is very unfavorable."

Grey swallowed hard, forcing herself to look up and meet the masked girl's gaze, suppressing her fear.

The masked girl did not continue her attack, but stood there motionless.

"So, stop now."

Kai stepped forward and stood between them.

[Masked girl: "...Who are you?"]

[Kay: "Haha, so you really don't have any memories. That's right, you can't maintain clear memories with just your mind, and even if you do, they're hard to retrieve because that's the domain of the physical body. Sigh, otherwise, what's the brain doing? Is it just a useless shell? I, who am also modeled after the mind, also have to rely on that little box to maintain my memories."]

"However, your condition is truly unbearable to look at. Though I may be cold-hearted, even I find it extremely uncomfortable."

【"shut up."】

As the deep voice rang out, the Black Holy Lance lashed out at Kai without hesitation.

[Kai did not confront the attack head-on, but instead effortlessly dodged the Black Holy Lance's attack, seemingly without any intention of retaliating.]

"Ugh, both your swordsmanship and spearmanship are so clean it's disgusting, it makes me want to vomit. Don't let my appearance fool you, I'm actually quite adept at ruthless fighting styles. I'll bother you a little longer."

[Masked girl: "Mind your own business!"]

However, she truly couldn't tear her gaze away from the knight; there was an unseen force pulling them together.

Rebellious Knight: "Hmph, in terms of skill, you've copied it quite well."

The masked girl's fighting posture with the Black Lance in the video reminded her of the King who fought her with the Holy Lance during the Battle of Camlann.

This so-called spiritual entity of King Arthur has indeed replicated my king's swordsmanship and spearmanship quite well.
