Crossover Anime: Picking up Medea at the Start

Sieg sensed the four heroic spirits above the pit, then turned his gaze toward the main camp of the Renjie Tree.

He originally wanted to wait until the two sides reached the most crucial moment before entering the game to get everything he needed.

But now that the Holy Grail War has become unpredictable, let's try to get both sides to unite and deal with the unpredictable issues first.

In short, he cannot allow his plans to be affected. This is the source of Sieg's obsession, which is also his limit, as he is forced to be bound by the parallel world.

....

173. The Purpose of Roland and Alaya

After Roland led Joan of Arc to destroy the Hanging Gardens and kill Shakespeare and Amakusa Shiro Tokisada, he flew back to Einzbernburg with Joan of Arc.

In this respect, they are faster than Artoria and the others.

After all, they don't need to carry the Greater Grail.

After returning to Einzbernburg, Joan of Arc went to rest, while Roland received a message from Alaya and Gaia, and he once again came to the space where the two of them were.

"Oh dear, I really didn't expect that after so much time, Roland, you still haven't dealt with that subdued guy~-"

Roland had just arrived when he heard Alaya's voice.

Gaia, who was standing next to her, turned her gaze over at that moment.

"Is it troublesome? Do you need my help?"

Upon hearing Gaia's words, Roland swallowed back what he was about to say and instead focused his attention on Gaia.

"I remember you're incapable of acting on your own, aren't you?"

Gaia nodded.

"It wasn't possible before, but now that I've become your servant god, it's possible."

Gaia's words made Roland realize what was going on.

One can also enjoy the benefits of the divine group from among the gods.

Leaving aside Alaya, Gaia's condition before joining the gods was certainly not at her best—after all, Earth has existed for so many years, and Gaia must have had all sorts of problems.

Presumably, these problems were all resolved after she became a goddess.

Moreover, the Earth also has a lifespan, and even if this lifespan is extremely long, it is still a real existence.

Therefore, making Earth's lifespan permanent should be of great benefit to Gaia.

Roland understood this point, and then he realized that neither Gaia nor Alaya had specifically mentioned this issue to him before. This meant that Gaia was dead, and the future leading to the Steel Land might not be the only end for humanity, or at least not the true end.

Otherwise, the end should have been resolved when Gaia became a god.

"Yes, now Gaia also has a body to deploy."

While Roland was pondering, Alaya began to explain.

"After becoming a god, the power of the gods greatly improved Gaia's condition. After recovering to her best condition, she created a physical body and identity for herself that she could move around in."

"If Gaia were to participate now, then most of the enemies would be no problem."

Upon hearing Alaya's words, Roland's gaze fell upon her once again.

"That's what they say, but this Sieg is clearly not an enemy that needs to be smashed directly."

"Alaya, stop teasing Gaia. You know what you need to know."

Gaia's gaze fell directly on Alaya, who blinked and stuck out its tongue, looking quite mischievous.

"I don't know~"

Seeing her like this, Roland sighed and made things clear.

"Stop pretending. Didn't you send me an accomplice? If you just wanted me to kill that Zieg cleanly, you wouldn't have done it this way."

"After all, even if he has consolidated his parallel world and crudely gained power, his so-called power is nothing compared to ours, isn't it?"

"So you sent me a helper, and it's Melly, who has the ability to see through everything. It's obvious what you're up to now."

At this point, Roland glanced at Gaia, who still seemed to exude a kind of innocent foolishness, and then he spoke more bluntly.

"You were planning to use this Sieg to test the existence behind the scenes who brought some guys to their parallel worlds, weren't you? If you hadn't hinted at it like that, I wouldn't have pushed things in this direction now."

Just as Roland said.

He never really took the so-called Holy Grail War seriously.

If it weren't for Sieg's situation, the Holy Grail War would have ended by now!

Those who surrendered and Roland deemed acceptable were recruited into the God Group to increase their enhancement points.

Those who refuse to surrender, Roland deems unacceptable, will simply be killed.

If we deal with Artoria and Mordred a little, then Bazett and Aya can reach the Root through the Greater Grail.

It was because of Alaya's hint, coupled with Roland's curiosity about the issue, that he pushed things to the current state, giving Sieg more room to maneuver and forcing him to take the stage, making him do more mistakes.

"I've already stirred up the waters; now it's up to Zieg to make his move."

"In this process, I initially judged that the bound Sieg should know some things that were going to happen—otherwise, if he were just an artificial being who suddenly gained the power of binding, his actions would not be so sneaky, but rather more expansive and bold."

"Secondly, the other party is rational, and even if you say that individuals who are brutally restrained will become paranoid, the other party should be the type who is paranoid about their own pursuits—otherwise, when I provoked the other party with Joan of Arc, he would not have gone this far, but should have jumped out to attack me regardless of everything."

"Finally... even if he is subdued, his power is far inferior to that of a god-awakened being as defined by the gods. Otherwise, if he had the power of Artoria, he would definitely have a smarter fighting style and options."

Upon hearing Roland's analysis, Alaya was no longer in a playful mood, but frowned slightly and became a little more serious.

"I see... That's really hard to understand. After all, that extraterrestrial visitor selectively gathered so many people in parallel worlds, but didn't gain power in the process, nor did he give any orders to these gathered individuals... If these gathered individuals knew a part of the future, then perhaps there would be some guidance, but it doesn't seem like it."

"After all, these guys who were brutally subdued were too paranoid."

Alaya helplessly shrugged.

"We can't just let them destroy things as they please, can we?"

Upon hearing Alaya's words, Roland seemed to be deep in thought.

"Maybe that's just how it is..."

"Are you serious?"

When Alaya saw Roland's appearance, she was puzzled at first, and then seemed to realize what was going on.

"Of course I'm serious—after all, if you insist on saying that these guys are free to destroy, that's not right. These guys aren't irrational beasts; their obsessions are driven by their own desires or wishes. So we need to change that definition. For example, that guy's goal is to make them create big events."

"In that case, whether he shows these bound individuals a future projection or simply makes them believe that he really exists, his influence will indirectly increase as these bound individuals cause more trouble and gain more fame."

Roland recently became humanity's final trial.

Then his Dragon Remnant turned into this.

So Roland's ideas quickly aligned with the small garden concept.

"It's just a guess, but I suspect that for some reason, the other party may not be able to use too much power, or may not be able to move freely, or may simply not have a physical body or something like that. And his purpose in doing this is to gather fame and influence, so as to use these things to create a physical body or identity for himself that can move freely within the world."

"This might not be the most accurate explanation, after all, the other party could just be a madman or someone who enjoys himself."

"But if we consider the threat level, this might be the more threatening one—after all, what kind of person would not have a body or identity that allows them to move freely within the world?"

"It can't be that it's been removed from the world's list, can it?"

"And if I heard correctly, you've always called each other extraterrestrial visitors, right?"

Roland looked at Gaia and Alaya, originally intending to ask them why they had summoned him, but now he was clearly more interested in the question at hand.

"So could you elaborate on the issue of this form of address?"

P.S.: No, my eyes are a little too heavy to keep open, that's all for today.

174. White Demon!?

"of course can."

After hearing Roland's question, Alaya smiled and gave a reply.

"This extraterrestrial visitor refers to an outsider who suddenly falls to Earth one day."

"Then the spaceship the other party was on was the world fragment we talked about when you introduced the Void Realm."

Upon hearing this, Roland was surprised for a moment, and then he nodded.

“I see... I was wondering why you defined the fragments of the world so clearly before. In that case, and you quickly confirmed that I was an outsider when you found me—and you even said that outsiders shouldn’t be able to travel between worlds. I was wondering then how you, as the world’s suppressor, knew about such things. Logically, even the Root shouldn’t know.”

"But now it seems that your judgments on this matter all come from this extraterrestrial visitor, right?"

Gaia nodded.

"Correct."

"When we first discovered this extraterrestrial visitor and the fragments of the world that carried her, we studied it for a long time. What I'm telling you is what we summarized during the research process."

"First, we determined that there was an extra piece of broken world fragment in this world, and second, we discovered that there was life in this world fragment—and only one."

"Secondly, we discovered that people from our world cannot enter that world fragment because that world fragment has not merged with our world. Therefore, people from our world do not have an identity from that world and will be rejected by the world fragment."

"Finally, we discovered that the other party was trying to get out but couldn't, and then we figured out what we had told you before."
