Crossover Anime: Collecting Treasures from All Worlds Starting with Type-Moon

Tokiomi Tohsaka sighed. Kirei's answer was so reasonable that he had no doubts. Tokiomi turned and walked to the cabinet, taking out an exquisite box for him.

"This is... my master?" Kirei was very puzzled, then opened the box.

"This is the Azoth sword, a magical costume given to students or children in the magic world to celebrate their coming of age. Congratulations, Kirei, you have completed all your magical training and graduated from here."

Tokiomi Tohsaka's face was full of smiles, like a father watching his child grow up.

Chapter Thirty-Six: The Misunderstood

"This this..."

Shichen stared in bewilderment at the Azoth sword that pierced his heart. Just two minutes ago, he had given the sword to Kirei to celebrate his graduation.

"how come..."

With that thought in mind, Tokiomi Tohsaka collapsed to the ground. Red blood flowed continuously from his shattered heart.

"I really didn't expect you to be able to do this, Kirei—you've exceeded my expectations."

Gilgamesh released his spirit form. Just moments ago, he had witnessed Kirei kill Tokiomi without stopping him. He held this nominal Master in utter contempt.

"A boring and uninteresting person."

This is Gilgamesh's assessment of Tokiomi Tohsaka. As a traditional magician, Tokiomi Tohsaka is a typical right-wing (i.e., conservative) figure.

He believed in bloodline theory and was more skilled at research than combat in magic. Their goal was simple: to explore the origins of magic.

The Vortex of Origin is the ultimate goal that all magicians dream of, and a dreamland that humans can never reach in their lifetime. By going to the Vortex of Origin, humans will gain control over the fundamental cause and effect and laws of all things in the world.

At that time, they will want to change the world's structure and order; in other words, to create a new world and destroy the old one.

Those humans who were able to return from the Vortex of Origin have all left behind illustrious names in history.

However, Gilgamesh held such dreams in utter contempt. In fact, he had no desires left; all he wanted was pleasure, which was why he participated in this Holy Grail War.

"See if there are any people or things that can bring you joy."

The ending was always unexpected. Kirei and the little girl who called herself the King of Knights were like two extremes, both of whom brought him great pleasure.

"why why!"

Kirei looked at his wound and murmured, wondering what was going on with this unprecedented feeling of pleasure that permeated all his senses.

Why is it that after committing such despicable acts, even murdering one's master and father, one feels no sadness whatsoever, but rather immense pleasure?

Every cell in his body seemed to be dancing. After living for 27 years, he could finally stop suppressing his nature and freely release what he originally wanted to do.

"How is it, Qili?"

Gilgamesh looked at Kirei Kotomine with a smile on his face. This man, who resembled him, was very much to his liking. Compared to the boring hours, Kirei Kotomine was much more interesting.

“A captivating feeling, but that’s not enough.” After calming himself down a bit, Kirei Kotomine replied, and on his left hand, three red Command Seals slowly condensed.

"This is..."

Kirei Kotomine frowned as he looked at the fresh red Command Seals in his hand. He was already surprised to be chosen as a Master the first time, but he didn't expect to be chosen as a Master again so soon after Assassin's death.

"Kiri, what is your wish?"

Gilgamesh also noticed the strange phenomenon in Kirei's hand. As an Archer, he possessed the class's inherent skill: [Independent Action - A+].

This inherent skill allows the Heroic Spirit to continue operating independently for two more days, even if the Master has died, provided that the Heroic Spirit can provide enough magical energy in the mortal realm, provided that the Heroic Spirit is not fatally wounded.

"My...my wish..."

Kirei lowered his head, seemingly deep in thought.

"No, I have no wish, therefore I do not know what my wish is." After a moment's thought, Kirei Kotomine gave Aecher his reply.

"Oh? The Holy Grail only bestows its marks upon those with strong desires. How could you possibly not have desires?" Gilgamesh also found things becoming interesting.

That is indeed the case, because the Holy Grail has long been corrupted. The one who now governs the internal system of the Holy Grail is no longer Justeza, the Winter Saint, but the evil of this world called Angra Mainyu.

As the embodiment of all evil in this world, it naturally leans more towards ugliness, and thus it chooses people like Ryusuke Ameno and Kirei Kotomine to bestow upon them Stigmata, making them Masters.

They even summoned Gilles de Rais, a demonic being who cannot be called a Heroic Spirit. All of this is irrefutable proof that the Holy Grail has been corrupted.

"Even so, I truly have no desire, Gilgamesh. Would you like to form a contract with me? I believe you haven't had enough fun in this Holy Grail War yet."

Kirei naturally extended an olive branch to Gilgamesh.

"Of course. The existence of that little girl is truly amazing. I'm really curious what it would feel like to dye her whole body with my color."

As they were talking, Gilgamesh and Kirei Kotomine renewed their contract.

Chapter Thirty-Seven: Day Four (Seeking Flowers)

Shen Qiu returned to the Matou family villa at three in the morning.

This is the fourth day of the Holy Grail War, and also a crucial day in Shen Qiu's plan.

"Sakura! Why aren't you asleep?"

Shen Qiu had just returned to the villa when he saw Xiao Ying sitting on the sofa, with a late-night program on the TV in front of her that almost no one would watch. Xiao Ying seemed to be getting sleepy and could only stand up to fight off the drowsiness.

Even so, the purple-haired girl in front of him seemed to be teetering on the brink of collapse.

"Brother Qiu! And Aunt Master too!"

Upon seeing Shen Qiu return, Xiao Ying immediately lost her sleepiness and rushed straight towards him, hugging his waist tightly.

"Why isn't Sakura asleep yet? Didn't I tell you not to wait for me?"

"Brother Qiu works very hard, coming home so late every night and not eating properly, so I want Brother Qiu to have a good meal when he comes back."

Upon hearing Ying's words, Shen Qiu felt his heart melt.

The master seemed to like the child very much. After patting Sakura's head, Shen Qiu saw a rune called "Cen" faintly shining on Sakura's head. The blue light disappeared shortly afterward.

This is one of the most difficult runes to learn among all the runes, symbolizing the light of knowledge.

After being given this rune, due to differences in each person's physique, they will gain a learning speed and understanding of knowledge that are several times to dozens of times faster.

Shen Qiu was able to learn the runes so quickly thanks to the blessing of this rune. Otherwise, even the most talented person would need several months to learn the four runes they already knew.

After enjoying the late-night snack Xiaoying made, Shen Qiu took a shower. Looking at the black mask and black trench coat he had taken off, he silently drew a "K" symbol in the air.

The next second, a tongue of fire several meters long shot out of the air! His black clothes and mask were instantly burned to ashes, and at this moment he had made up his mind to no longer hide his identity.

"Master, what is your wish?"

At five o'clock in the morning, Shen Qiu was still awake, studying runes with his master. Just as he was holding his breath and concentrating all his attention on sketching the characters in the air, his master suddenly said something like this.

Her words silenced Shen Qiu.

After pondering for a long time, Shen Qiu finally gave his answer—

"I want to be in control of my own destiny."

That was Shen Qiu's answer.

His answer immediately piqued the master's interest. She had originally thought that Shen Qiu, at his age, would make a wish such as "to become the strongest in the world".

"Such a vague wish, I'm afraid the Holy Grail won't grant it." Scáthach shook her head. After all, the Holy Grail is just a machine, and it's difficult for it to make a decision about such a vague wish.

"No, Master, I do not intend to achieve my wish through the Holy Grail. What I desire is to use my own hands to forge my own desire step by step."

Shen Qiu glanced at the beautiful woman in front of him, who was only wearing pajamas, and paused.

"I want to become someone who can control my own destiny, instead of like this, where I have to sneak around every time I take you out, afraid of being discovered and getting involved with Sakura and Shinji."

“I don’t want to meticulously plot and scheme, to be unable to sleep soundly at night, and to have to expend all my energy and walk on thin ice every day.”

At this point, Shen Qiu felt he could finally express how exhausted he had been during this period; he was simply too overworked.

Magicians are mostly obsessive and crazy abnormal people, but they consider this obsession and abnormality to be normal—because that's what makes them magicians, beings different from normal people.

This world is, in a sense, a world of madness, with the Mystic Eyes of Death Perception capable of killing in an instant, and the Twenty-Seven Dead Apostles whose strength rivals that of Heroic Spirits.

The longer the White Princess Arcueid, the Black Princess Arcelorucci, and the Second Magician Gem Onzelrich stayed in this place, the more he realized the insignificance of his own power.

"Master, I want to become stronger as quickly as possible, until the day I can control my own destiny. And when that day comes, I will come to find you."

Shen Qiu looked at Scáthach with such resolute determination in his eyes.

Inside the Einzbern family's castle, Saber looked through the huge French windows at the slowly rising sun in the sky, her heart filled with mixed emotions.

"I will definitely obtain the Holy Grail, Lancelot, Mordred, Gawain, Garrett..."

After the sun rose, the golden-haired knight king turned and went into the castle. Tonight she would have a fierce battle, and her opponent was none other than the famous conqueror king Iskandar!
