Walking in the Question and Answer System of Heroic Spirits

Yes, just one more step.

[The Immaculate Souls and countless young girls that Assassin and Caster have collected in the city over the past few days will, tonight, reach a quantity comparable to that of a single Heroic Spirit.]

If the two servants sacrifice their lives, the Greater Grail will be activated.

That's right, tonight.

[Leading the world toward destruction. The wish will be fulfilled.]

Magical Girl Rin Tohsaka: "Is it almost finished?!"

Magical Girl Illya: "N-This isn't good. Mr. Arthur hasn't found the Greater Grail yet."

Weber: "Worthy of the name omnipotence, surpassing even the mysterious in its wonder..."

Weber: "Could it be!"

Dad: "Did you finally guess it?"

Weber: "How is this possible... You must be joking..."

Second: "Remove all the impossibilities, and what remains, however absurd, will only be the answer."

Kenneth: "What? You know the girl's secret?"

Hartres: "Heh, it seems Lord El-Melloi didn't guess that. Or rather, he did think of it, but couldn't believe it."

Kenneth: "What are you talking about?!"

Hartres: "...the root cause."

Kenneth: "!!!"

Everyone: "!!!"

Tokiomi Tohsaka: "Are you saying that this girl has already touched the Root?! How is that possible?!"

That's the source! The existence that countless magicians dream of, how could such a little girl have come into contact with it!

Unacceptable!

Chapter 522 The Tranquility of Blind Loyalty

Hartres: "Just because you don't believe it doesn't mean it won't happen. Besides, why can't you accept it? There's already a precedent in the group."

Ryougi Shiki: "..."

Everyone: "..."

Damn! I forgot, there's someone in the group who's in contact with the source!

Because Ryougi Shiki rarely speaks in the group chat, her presence has always been low.

With the precedent of Ryougi Shiki, Aika Sajo's situation was not unacceptable for the time being.

"Assassin."

[Sajō Aika reaches out and gently touches the still body of the silent Hassan.]

"You looked beautiful the day before yesterday. Whether that boy is dead or alive, it doesn't matter. Since you would fight so hard for him, you understand how I feel, right?"

"Falling in love with someone, starting a relationship, and becoming completely immersed in it—that's the best thing in the world."

"You've both worked so hard, please stop collecting the human sacrifices. I can collect them myself."

Yes, the girl no longer needs companionship.

They could do nothing but watch the girl's figure gradually disappear into the darkness.

Hassan the Hundred Faces: "...Is the Serene Hassan worth it?"

For a Master who doesn't love you, you hunt down young girls as sacrifices. Now, he no longer needs you.

does it worth?

Silent Hassan: "Perhaps, it's worth it..."

For her at that time, just being touched like that was enough; even if she was abandoned afterward, she would be content.

The girl danced in the night sky, like a fairy from a picture book running across a lake.

[Smiling, yet with tears welling in my eyes with sadness—]

I returned home after being away for several days.

The doors to the entrance hall, corridor, stairs, and bedroom were all enchanted with magical barriers.

Does this fatherly love cherish his vulnerable daughter?

The Holy Grail War is over, but we remain vigilant.

The father's actions were touching. However, the result was far too insignificant, meaningless in the face of the young girl's suffering.

The barrier will disappear as you walk through it.

[If you whisper it, the magic trick will fail.]

What kind of expression will that child have?

Although we said goodbye the morning before yesterday.

"I'm so happy that you like me so much."

"Will you understand someday?"

"Hmm—I think it's better for you if we don't see each other anymore."

There were no lies; these were all heartfelt words. If the girl had a heart.

[My thoughts have changed. But, it was you who changed them, wasn't it?]

I had predicted that I would never go home again.

I had predicted that we would never meet again.

[It is precisely because of the decision not to look at the future that one's own future can lead to such inaccurate predictions.]

The girl was also somewhat surprised.

[The pathetic, illusory, and excessively fragile mortal has actually managed to take action.]

[In the dormitory, a girl looks down at her younger sister's sleeping face.]

"Is this what a sleeping face looks like? This is the first time I've seen one."

【"elder sister?"】

Sensing the other person's presence, Ayaka Sajou groggily got up.

"Sorry for coming so late."

"Hey, Ayaka, who did you run into this evening?"

Rin Tohsaka: "I didn't expect that this woman, who I thought was already blinded by love, still has some family affection left."

Fiore: "Yes, but obviously not much."

It is clear that Aika Sajou's determination to destroy human history remains unchanged; her return this time is merely a final farewell.

Saying goodbye to his younger sister.

[Tokyo's underground spaces.]

There is only one path leading down from the ground, and a person is waiting on that path.

To reach the Greater Grail slumbering in the depths of Tokyo, one must pass through here.

Even though he was no longer needed, Silent Hassan still made his choice.

He will come.

[I had such a premonition. I was so certain.]

Overcoming all difficulties and hardships, he will surely find the location of the beast eyeing the world.

As an Assassin, she doesn't possess abilities like predicting the future. However, she's not entirely unaware of how she will perish.

After all, this is the second time.

"Is it Assassin?"

Sure enough. He's here.

Hassan the Hundred-Faced: "..."

She no longer knew what to say about this colleague.

Zabiko: "We've finally arrived. I was really worried we wouldn't make it."

Blonde Rin: "It doesn't count as catching up now; it only counts when we successfully stop Sajyo Aika."

[Silent Hassan: "Saber. The best Servant... To be honest, I didn't think you'd be so good at investigating and exploring cities."]

[Old Sword: "I really can't find it on my own."]

[I see. So you received assistance from the head of the Sajō family.]

Koles: "It seems that the other one has also made a choice."
