FATE: Target of Grand Master

Euryale returned to the stage.

"Let's begin then."

Miss Crane closed her eyes and said, "Xiao Ai, even after so much time has passed, your image is still etched in my mind. Let me see your performance one more time."

The world, which had been completely paused, vanished instantly, leaving only the concert stage, with a beam of light descending from the sky.

After a burst of electric guitar strumming, a girl with Artoria's face, wearing glasses, carrying a purplish-red electric guitar, and with two speakers floating behind her emerged.

Listen to my song.

The mysterious idol X only said this one sentence before starting her performance.

"The moment the first star tolls."

"The time for sweet snacks passed by quietly."

"I won't feel reluctant to leave, nor will I feel sad."

"Because we obtained a treasure."

This is the original song that Xiao Ai sang at the end of that Holy Grail concert, and it is also the most touching song in Miss He's heart.

Not only Miss He, but even Xia Yan and Yuri Ai Li, who were hearing this song for the first time, could feel the joy of the singer Xiao Ai and Miss He's feelings when they heard the song.

Xiao Ai's performance was devoid of any frills, and the melody of the song was not complicated, but the emotion it evoked was an insurmountable barrier that the previous 11 idols could never overcome.

Miss Tsuru's feelings were also very conflicted at this moment. On the one hand, she was still deeply moved by Xiao Ai's performance. On the other hand, she desperately hoped that Euryale could defeat Xiao Ai so that she and the Royal Priest could be freed from this endless cycle of reincarnation.

After the performance, the mysterious idol X disappeared from the stage.

Unfazed, Euryale walked from the side of the stage to the center, lowered the microphone, and then smiled at Xia Yan, who was standing below the stage, saying, "Xia Yan, I need you to accompany me."

Xia Yan pointed to himself with a surprised look, the meaning of which was clear: Me, go and provide accompaniment? What kind of accompaniment can I provide?

Euryale said with a smile, "Didn't you play an impromptu tune that night? Why don't you go up on stage and play it again?"

Xia Yan quickly shook his head and waved his hands. Wouldn't sending someone as mediocre as him up there at a time like this just cause trouble?

Euryale feigned displeasure and said, "What? It's a matter of whether you can leave this world or not, and you don't want to do anything about it, leaving all the responsibility to me, right? If you don't come on stage, I'm not singing."

"But I didn't bring my guitar."

Xia Yan could tell that Yuri Ellie wasn't joking, but he also knew he didn't have the ability to perform on stage, so he could only find an excuse.

"Take it."

Morgan suddenly found himself holding a guitar.

Forehead...

With things having come to this point, Xia Yan had no choice but to go on stage.

"Don't be nervous, relax, just treat it as a continuation of what you played that night."

In the past, Xia Yan was the one who relieved stress, but this time it was Yuri Ellie who was saying stress-relieving things to Xia Yan in reverse.

"Ah, let's begin then."

When Xia Yan stepped onto the stage, he was indeed very nervous, but when he thought about this stage with Yuri Ellie and all the efforts the little girl had made to become an idol in this world, he immediately felt that he also had to work harder.

The moment Xia Yan plucked the strings and the music began, he completely forgot he was on stage and began playing the melody of the evening, following his own instincts.

A moment later, Euryale's voice reached their ears.

"Becoming an idol is never as easy as I imagined."

"Those few minutes of brilliance on stage are the result of countless hours of practice."

"But as long as I see his smile, nothing else matters..."

Euryale didn't sing her solo singles or her previous covers of established songs. Instead, she spontaneously composed a song on the spot, inspired by her own experience.

Compared to Xiao Ai's performance, Yuri's performance was very simple in both melody and lyrics, and it would not be an exaggeration to describe it as immature. However, Miss He, who was standing in the audience, saw smiles on the faces of the two people on stage.

It wasn't the professional smile of an idol, but a very natural and dedicated smile, a smile that came from within, reflecting a desire to make this performance a memorable experience.

Both performers on stage were enjoying themselves, and that feeling would infect the audience below.

Someone once described happiness like this: if the maximum happiness a person can feel when alone is 10, then when two people feel happiness together, the maximum happiness can reach 100. This is perhaps the feeling of having the same interests.

When a third person who can also feel this joy appears, the joy that the third person feels from the first two people can even reach 1000.

This is the solution Euryale came up with.

I didn't compete in terms of technique; I simply used my most sincere singing to move Miss He.

"Oh dear, what's wrong with me?"

Miss He touched the tears on her cheeks and realized that she was not as excited as before, but was moved to tears.

Xia Yan and Yuri Ellie on stage had no time to pay attention to Miss He's reaction in the audience. At this moment, the two were still doing their best to improvise a song.

Since the melody and lyrics were improvised, the performance only lasted for a little over two minutes, but Ms. He in the audience couldn't stop crying.

She finally understood that what she wanted was not a more glamorous performance, but a return to her true self, a love that transcended the mere pursuit of being an idol.

Xiao Ai, as the idol she has supported all the way, has already brought the image of an idol in her mind to its extreme. However, the original interaction between Yuri and Xia Yan is a passion that surpasses the limits of her own.

The results speak for themselves.

"Opponent, Euryale, you've won."

Just as Miss Tsuru uttered those words, the last remaining part of the stage in this world disappeared, and the Holy Grail, which supplied magic to the entire world, floated in mid-air, radiating golden light.

The idol world, which has gone through 12 cycles, has finally come to an end.

"Xia Yan, we did it! Praise me!"

Euryale immediately threw herself into Xia Yan's arms, eagerly seeking praise.

Xia Yan gently stroked the goddess pendant on his body while saying things like "Amazing" and "Thank you for your hard work."

"Oppo!"

Miss Crane walked up to Xia Yan with the jeweled sword, somewhat apologetically saying, "Here, take this back. I'm so sorry that you've all been trapped in this world for so long because of me. I will repay this kindness. If Master doesn't mind, I'm willing to sign a formal contract with Master."

Isn't this like someone bringing you a pillow when you're sleepy?

Xia Yan had been thinking about how to persuade Miss He to join by appealing to her emotions and reasoning with her, but now it all came to him effortlessly.
