Alchemy Principles of Type-Moon World

“Therefore, I was entrusted by the Lord to discover His rules, uncover His mysteries, and prove His existence.”

"Caster, Messiah. Both of us are souls that transcend time—"

“—I ask you…”

The man finally opened his eyes, and his deep gaze swept across the dim murder scene.

"...Wait, what's going on now?"

Volume 4: The Alchemist's Apprentice from the Fourth War: . Messiah? You?

"Oh I see."

"You have to use human blood to draw a formation for such a trivial matter?"

"After so many years, magicians are still such complete rubbish."

The "Messiah" picked up the head that had fallen to the ground and put it back on his master's neck.

"But, could this be the Einzbern family's method?" He raised his hand and wiped the joint. The once hideous wound healed rapidly under his hand. "Are they still pursuing the abandoned Jade Method to this day?"

"If you refuse to give up your wrong path, your tragic wish will never come true..."

"Um... My name is Uryu Ryunosuke, I'm a freelancer, and my hobbies are all about killing. I like children and young women..."

Who asked him? Who asked him to speak?

As expected, compared to this group of incompetent and short-sighted magicians, the Einzbern mediocre people look much more lovable.

"I originally wanted to hold a banquet to exchange feelings, but the main course prepared for you ran away..." Uryu Ryunosuke pointed at Xing Qingjiu who was lying in the formation, "This is all we have."

"...Wait, freelance, and your hobby is killing people?"

"You mean you like children and young women?"

"Ah, Mr. Devil really understands. The information, excitement, and experience brought by their deaths..."

"It's so wonderful! Compared to when they were alive, death is indeed more meaningful!"

……

Because I felt that the soul did not belong to this world at this time, I was interested in coming here.

As a result, he died.

Death is nothing, just resurrection. Not pursuing responsibility is already a measure of magnanimity on my part.

But what is this vulgar guy talking about?

"Hmm... that's really rude." Uryu Ryunosuke smiled cheerfully, "You should really let me get the main course back for you."

Can you please make this idiot shut up.

How long has it been since I saw such a piece of trash that is of no use to the world or the truth?

I'm really old. Even if I force my spiritual base to change to what it was when I was young, I can't change my slow-paced nature.

This should have been done long ago.

"Come here, okay, give me your hand."

The moment the two hands clasped together——

——Uzumaki Ryunosuke melted.

A liquid metal-like substance with a golden sheen spread rapidly in the living room, crawling over the fragments of various daily necessities on the ground, flowing and flowing, and finally condensed into an exquisite magic circle.

"What a disgusting thing!" the man said, looking at Xing Qingfan, whose intestines were spilling all over the floor. "I suddenly feel that those losers holding onto ether and sucking on pacifiers have some merit. Is it because I've met someone even more stupid and superficial than losers?"

"Alas, how could Lingji express his alchemist side so purely? Is it because of the influence of that stupid summoner? How ridiculous."

"I hope this era won't disappoint me too much..."

"Truth is real, it never lies, and it necessarily brings truth; below is as above, above as below, and thus the miracle of the One is accomplished; all things are originally the One, and are created from the One through differentiation."

Messiah placed the hand that had just held Ryunosuke Uesugi on Xing Qingjiu's head, humming a spell in his mouth, and the golden alchemy array emitted a faint light.

"The sun is the father, the moon is the mother, conceived from the wind, nurtured from the earth; the source of all perfection in the world is here, and its power is obtained from the earth."

"Divide the earth from the fire, and gather the essence from the coarse, and do it with care; ascend from the earth to the heaven, and descend from the heaven, and acquire the power of those above and below; thus you may obtain the glory of the world and escape from darkness and ignorance."

"This is the king of all powers, breaking through the hard and strong."

"This is how the world was created; this is how miracles can be achieved."

"I am called the Thrice-Great Hermes, for I possess the threefold wisdom of the world; this is what I call the Great Work."

The man looked at his work with satisfaction, but soon he noticed something wrong.

"Hmm...should I have stuffed his intestines back earlier?" The man looked at Xing Qingfeng, who was still disemboweled, and scratched his head.

"Forget it. It's none of my business." The man carried Xing Qingjiu and prepared to leave the living room. Before he left, he snapped his fingers, and the golden refining array turned into liquid again and flowed into the other three corpses.

————————————————————

"Hey, are you awake?"

"……what?"

Xing Qingqiu slowly woke up on a lounge chair in the park. As his mind gradually became more flexible, he quickly recalled what had happened not long ago and subconsciously touched his abdomen.

Wet, soft, hot, and slippery.

Yes, it’s my own intestines.

"Fuck!!"

"Ah, sorry. I should have stuffed your intestines back in before solidifying them, but I didn't really want to touch that thing." The blond man standing not far away, looking at the Miyuan River, said without any apology. "It's nothing. Although it's an incomplete refinement, it has similar properties. Once you master the technique, it should be fine to stuff it back in."

"Ah? It doesn't hurt, damn!!!"

"Don't you have anything to say?" The man turned his head and looked at Xing Qingfeng, who was playing with his intestines. "Are you listening to me?"

"what?"

Xing Qingyu stuffed his intestines back into his abdominal cavity. "Oh, oh oh! You saved me, right? Um, how did you say it? Oh yes, nice to meet you. My name is Xing Qingyu."

Xing Qingfeng was about to say something, but then he thought, he'd already been resurrected twice. The existence of magic and alchemy in this world was normal, right? How could he have been resurrected, traveled through time, and fallen into the water in a completely normal world without any anomalies? He could even accept resurrection and travel through time, so how could something astonishing as the supernatural still amaze him?

"The reaction was more muted than I expected." The man was puzzled by Xing Qingfeng's reaction. "Or is it that the miracle of resurrection from the dead has become commonplace in this day and age? How wonderful!"

"Come, let me check if your soul is normal."

"Don't move, don't blink." The man placed his hand on Xing Qingjiu's forehead, his eyes closed, not knowing what he was feeling. "No problem..."

"Doctor, am I mentally healthy?"

"Most people are the same whether they have brains or not, but you are a little special. You really have no brains."

"what?"

"Can you give me a reaction other than 'ah'?" the man waved his hand and sat down next to Xing Qingjiu. "Do you know about the Holy Grail War?"

"Masturbation cup?"

"?"

"never heard of that."

"It's about seven magi who serve as Masters and summon seven Servants from different eras and classes from history. Then they fight each other with their heads thrown aside. The winner takes all and gets to take home some kind of Holy Grail, which is said to grant any wish. At least, that's what the Holy Grail tells me."

"All wishes come true..."

"Do you believe it?"

"Do not believe."

"Very good, it shows that you have some ability to think." The man looked at her with satisfaction. "I like you more and more."

"Uh uh, I don't sell hooks."

Although the man didn't understand what the hook in Xing Qingqi's mouth meant, when he saw Xing Qingqi covering his butt, he, who was from Britain, instantly understood what he meant.

"I have no interest in your 'hook'."

"That's good." Xing Qingyu withdrew his hand from covering his hip, but he still kept a distance from the blond man that made him feel a little more at ease. "Although I don't understand what the Holy Grail is, I'm more interested in what you said about summoning historical figures. Can I really see cross-era free fighting?"

"Based on what the Holy Grail has taught me, it's likely that summoned Servants will prioritize killing their Masters. After all, if the Master dies, it will be difficult for the Servants to survive on their own."

"Why are Pokémon still attacking their trainers?"

"They all believe that a broken cup can make all their wishes come true. If they are tricked out of their seats by this thing, do you expect them to resist breaking the rules?"

"Anyway, that's it." The blond man yawned. "Just find a way to survive. Even though it's not easy to kill you right now."

"Wait, what does this have to do with me?" Xing Qingqiu's brain seemed to finally react. "What does this Dark Pokémon Contest have to do with me, an ordinary pancake vendor?"

"I fight Pokémon? Really?"

"Because I like you, let's get along well for the next seven days." The man patted Xing Qingqi's shoulder and said, "Is there a place like a library here? Take me there."

"Before that, shouldn't you introduce yourself?" Xing Qingfeng said with a puzzled look on his face, "I still don't quite understand what this super development is all about."

"Makes sense."

The man didn't know when a simple and heavy hardcover book appeared in his hand. He straightened his collar and raised his chin to face Xing Qingjiu.

"I am the Messiah who ends the mysteries of alchemy and defines the laws governing the movement of all things. Before me, the Creator's laws were hidden by mystery, and nature and its laws were shrouded in darkness. Therefore, I was entrusted by the Lord to replace the mysteries with my own laws, to illuminate the world with human reason, and to demonstrate His mysteries with my wisdom."

The man paused for a long time, but didn't get the response he wanted to hear.

"Don't you understand who I am?"

Xing Qingfeng racked his brains to recall the historical figures he knew, but nothing seemed to add up. Noticing the man's growing impatience, he felt compelled to test the waters and ask Wu Lingmeng for an answer.

"Yimoto?"

"Who is that?"

"Descartes? Doubts about the art of the ball ⑺ died 59 (four) 陽巴"

"No."

"...Give me a hint? The artist is three years old."

"I am the Messiah who proves God and the last alchemist of mankind."

"Oh, you're Yego!"

Apparently, Xing Qingjiu's religious knowledge was pitifully limited. In his (now defunct) brain, once filled with hellish jokes, the first thing that came to mind when he heard the Messiah was the man with the gaping hole in his hand.

"..."

"Caster, Isaac Newton." Newton slapped the thick hardcover book on Xing Qingqiu's head. "This fragment of the Emerald Law is not worthy of fulfilling my ambition. People of the future generations, admire the glory of the giant."

"Is this true?" Xing Qingfeng exclaimed, "When did Newton become the Messiah?"

"I think I am."

"Now, take me to a place with lots of books."

"Wait, shouldn't we be preparing for the Holy Grail War first?"

"Huh?" Newton scoffed. "I didn't come here for something so frivolous."

"It's clearly the wrong path chosen by mediocre people for their own tragic aspirations, yet these people are fighting over it for some meaningless reasons. As expected—"

"—Short-sighted bugs like magicians are only fit to live in damp corners where the sun never reaches."

----------------------

"The Aura Disk senses that the seventh Servant, Caster, has arrived."

"Who is the Master?"

"I don't know, but..."

"...There are so many coincidences surrounding that Chinese man that he's highly suspicious."

"Who?"

"Xing Qing wine."
