Walking in the Question and Answer System of Heroic Spirits

Amakusa Shiro: "What is it?"

Semiramis: "If this succeeds, what will you do with me?"

[Amakusa Shiro: "Ah, well... I was thinking if I honestly confessed and apologized to you, you should forgive me."]

Semiramis: "Hey, do you think I'd accept that?"

[Amakusa Shiro: "I will try my best to persuade you, but if you still can't accept it—then it ends here. I was the one who deceived you in the first place, so if you don't accept it, it doesn't matter if you kill me or turn me into a puppet."]

Semiramis: "I see, so this was your plan from the beginning."

[Amakusa Shiro: "I'm sorry, but to get to this point, I needed your strength no matter what."]

Semiramis: "I am a follower, but there is nothing I can do about it."

[Amakusa Shiro: "Truly tolerant."]

Semiramis: "Saying this now won't help, and the punishment has already been given."

Amakusa Shiro: "What punishment?"

Semiramis: "You cannot see the future; isn't that punishment sufficient?"

[Amakusa Shiro: "...Yes, that's a severe punishment."]

Semiramis: "However, this is a rare opportunity, so I'll reward you."

Amakusa Shiro: "A compliment?"

The next moment, Semiramis quickly kissed Amakusa Shiro.

Amakusa Shiro paused for a moment, then laughed, "This is the reward?"

Semiramis: "If you dare to say you disagree, this time I really will make you take poison."

[Amakusa Shiro: "No, this reward is more than sufficient."]

"Semiramis, thank you, it's so good to have met you."

And so, the two nestled together, transforming into specks of light and slowly disappearing.

"Oh! Joan of Arc kissed him!"

The women in the group blushed, never expecting Semiramis to be so bold.

Even Semiramis herself was taken aback.

It seems unbelievable, but upon closer inspection, it's not surprising at all.

Looking back on my life, I experienced two relationships.

The first man was a withered old man. He didn't make any demands, only telling her that witnessing his own death was enough. The dances and songs she had learned to flatter him were dismissed with a smile; she could simply sing and dance whenever she felt like it.

That must be a stable kind of love.

The second person was a man who plundered her because he fell in love with her.

The more a man's face contorts with regret, the more amusing it is for him to laugh.

That must be a passionate kind of love.

Although she doesn't regret killing him, she still can't change the fact that he loved her.

I never imagined that after becoming a Heroic Spirit, I would start my third relationship.

Amakusa Shiro Tokisada, this man asked nothing of her except that he needed her strength.

The empress actually hated herself the most, and therefore, she also deeply loathed those men who flattered her.

Amakusa Shiro's straightforward expression of needing her strength pleased her.

She never expected that she would eventually develop real feelings for this man.

After all, the Empress's kiss isn't something you just give away casually.

Watching his final moments in the video, Amakusa Shiro also had mixed feelings.

Love is something I've never thought about, either in my lifetime or in these past sixty years.

Who would have thought that a man like me, who only knows how to manipulate people, would actually win the Empress's favor?

Even if I was lying to her from the very beginning.

[Back at the Holy Grail Temple, Astolfo picked up Leticia and was about to retreat with Corles when they realized Sieg hadn't followed.]

Sieg stood before the Greater Grail with his back to them, and Astolfo felt a sudden, ominous premonition.

"Rider, you guys go. I need to figure out how to deal with this Greater Grail."

[Afu: "What! What do you mean by 'find a way'?! It's impossible! Stop it! We can't stop it, it's already started working to fulfill its wish! Although I'm very unwilling, very unwilling, those guys won! But... we're still alive! That's good enough, isn't it?!"]

Sieg shook his head and said, "Indeed, I cannot stop the Greater Grail, but I have other ways to deal with it."

[Coles: "Are you going to destroy it?"]

[Zig: "I can't. But I can take it to a world where there are no people."]

"After all, I can't destroy it, and I don't want to. I think someone will come and take it sooner or later, and by then—it will be useless."

Waver: "Is Sieg trying to use the Greater Grail to reunite with Joan of Arc?"

He would probably understand this feeling if he hadn't joined the Q&A group.

Even if we meet again, we might be strangers.

Kenneth: "Take him to a world without people? What nonsense! How could he, a single android, possibly do that?"

Lion's Robbery Realm: "Should I say, where is he referring to?"

[Afu: "So, Master, where are you planning to go?"]

[Zig: "The other side, that is, the other side of this world."]

[Afu: "Wait, wait! Master, stop messing around! How are you going to transport it? How are you going to get to that world? There's no way!"]

"I think it must be because of this."

Siegfried pressed his right hand, the black scar on it stirring with barely suppressed rage, demanding payment for the immense energy he had expended as Siegfried.

Command Seals possess immense magical power capable of binding Servants, but they can also be consumed in an instant. Siegfried used this magical power to transform into Siegfried. However, this was simply an illegal technique.

The consumption of Command Seals is simply too enormous; each use causes the flowing magical energy to contaminate the body. If it weren't for Siegfried's inability to withstand the dragon's blood—

Only now did Zieg realize that those weren't black scars, but dragon scales.

[With the power of Siegfried bathing in and drinking dragon's blood, the time has finally come to pay off this debt that he has been carrying for so long.]

According to his deduction, when the dragon scales cover his entire body, his physical body should be unable to withstand it and he should die.

However, he discovered that there was another path he could take.

The Greater Grail.

[If intervention is made before the third magic is fully implemented—then even a small, truly small wish might have a chance to come true.]

Now that he possesses a perpetual motion machine within him, he can absolutely do it.

Siegfried: "I see, dragon blood corruption, I never thought it would be like this."

Siegfried: "That's none of your business, Mr. Siegfried. I should have been mentally prepared when I used this power."

Rin Tohsaka: "Hey, he's talking about the other side of the world, could it be...!"

Tokiomi Tohsaka: "That's right, it's the world where the mythical beasts live."

Previously, when Sieg saw the back of the world during Afu's eagle transfer, they didn't pay much attention to it. Little did they know it was a foreshadowing.

Indeed, if the Greater Grail is taken to the other side of a world where no humans exist, its power will no longer be able to affect the humans of that other world.

Chapter 319 A Clichéd Ending, A Dramatic Ending

[A-Fu: "You, you, you, you, don't talk nonsense, you idiot!"]

[Zig: "Well, um, I guess I'm an idiot."]

At this moment, he was not only fulfilling Joan of Arc's will, but also acting out of his own considerations.

Immortality is indeed blissful, but then what?

He couldn't imagine what the future would hold if all of humanity shed their physical bodies and achieved immortality.

Everyone hopes for an end to the conflict; everyone hopes for peace and progress.

The Greater Grail will condemn these as utterly worthless. Humanity is hopelessly incompetent and foolish; the rest is left to the Grail.

[That's how it was announced.]

[You will eventually pick up the child who will learn to stand and take them away, so it's okay. All effort will become completely meaningless.]

[Although it's a happy time, isn't it also a sad one?]

Now, Zig, the only one who understands what the world will become, has been given the power to prevent it from happening.

Amakusa Shiro: "..."

I never imagined that I would fail, both in the past and now.

This Zieg seems to have been created by God to stop him.
