Did the Heroic Spirit I conquered become a reality?

As she spoke, she extended a slender finger and unconsciously and gently traced the cover of an ancient book on the table. The movement of her fingertip was full of indescribable allure.

"I've already witnessed your 'business' on the train," Tohsaka Yu smiled faintly. "Tell me, what will be the price this time? How many innocent people are you prepared to sacrifice?"

"Hehehe..."

Koyanskaya was amused by his words and laughed so hard that any man would probably feel his mouth go dry.

"It seems the 'fireworks show' last time didn't leave a very good impression on you." She finally dropped her naive student demeanor, her eyes becoming deep and aggressive—the eyes of a apex predator, the CEO of the NFF Chamber of Commerce.

"However, you've misunderstood, my dear big client."

She took something out from under the table, gently placed it on the table, and pushed it in front of Tohsaka Yu.

It was a beautifully crafted, jet-black card.

The card features silver patterns outlining a closed, ornate door that seems to lead to an unknown world.

"This time, there will be no audience, no extra actors, and no innocent people will be sacrificed."

Her voice was low and seductive.

"The stage is set up just for you."

"The price is just a little bit of your 'curiosity' and... the courage to face the 'truth'."

"So? Will you accept this 'invitation' that leads to the depths of your own heart?"

Yu Tohsaka's gaze lingered on the jet-black card for a few seconds.

He could sense that this card was a "coordinate," a "key" to an independent space.

Koyanskaya is the hunter who holds the door lock, waiting for his prey to walk into his trap.

Under the confident yet amused gaze from across the room, Tohsaka Yu slowly reached out and accepted the "invitation."

“I accept your ‘invitation’.”

Amidst Koyanskaya's ever-brightening smile, Tohsaka Yu slowly began to answer.

"a wise decision."

The moment she finished speaking, the card in Tohsaka Yu's hand suddenly erupted with a deep darkness, like a miniature black hole, instantly swallowing the two of them.

Space and time were transformed in an instant.

When Yu Tohsaka regained her sight, she found herself in a bizarre and fantastical alternate dimension.

Beneath their feet lay a broken, mirror-like ground, reflecting countless chaotic scenes.

At the end of the space stood a massive stone door, bound by countless chains and radiating an ominous aura.

“Welcome to the stage tailor-made for you, my dear ‘big client’,” Koyanskaya’s voice came from the side.

She was sitting with her arms crossed, leisurely admiring her "work".

"This is the 'Corridor of the Mind' constructed according to the characteristics of your soul. As long as you can break through that door, all the 'truths' you seek are behind the door."

She smiled alluringly, turned around to leave, and her figure began to become ethereal.

"Well then, have fun. I hope you can put on a truly spectacular one-man show for me—"

However, just as she was about to leave, a golden sword aura instantly sealed off all the space around her!

Koyanskaya's movements suddenly stopped.

When she turned around, she saw that Tohsaka Yu had somehow acquired a golden holy sword in his hand.

There was no surprise on her face; instead, she wore a knowing, amused smile.

"Oh dear, what a disobedient child," Koyanskaya chuckled. "You don't really think you can stop me all by yourself, do you?"

Yu Tohsaka smiled as well.

He slowly raised his head and asked, "Do you feel that in this place you created, there's no one who can help me?"

Koyanskaya's long, narrow eyes suddenly narrowed.

"What do you mean?"

She quickly scanned the space she had created; every rule and every parameter here was under her control.

She was 100% certain that this space was conceptually isolated from all outsiders; even the cosmic Ishtar could not possibly break in.

Yu Tohsaka did not answer her directly, but slowly said, "I did come alone."

"But who told you that my 'helper' needs to come in from the 'outside'?"

He opened his hand, and in his palm, a small, lifelike doll, indistinguishable from a real person, had appeared.

It was Aozaki Touko who used her greatest masterpiece to prepare the perfect vessel for the "Beast"!

Volume 1: Chapter 146 The Birth of Koyanskaya (4.5K)

"...A return gift?"

Koyanskaya looked at the exquisite doll in Tohsaka Yu's hand, paused slightly, and then couldn't help but cover her mouth with her hand, letting out a pleasant but contemptuous laugh.

"Hehehe... My dear big client, you don't actually think that a small doll with no magical reaction can do anything in a place like this, do you? This is what you call a 'backup plan'? How... adorable."

The disdain in her eyes was almost undisguised.

In her view, this was nothing more than a meaningless struggle made by prey when it was cornered.

However, at that moment, the smile on her face suddenly froze.

Because the doll held in Tohsaka Yu's palm had a faint light shining in its eyes.

Immediately afterwards, an indescribable, immense aura that made her heart pound began to awaken from within the doll!

Goyanskaya's pupils suddenly dilated.

Her horrified gaze passed over Tohsaka Yu and fixed intently on what was behind him.

There, three enormous pillars of light of different colors, representing three completely different and incompatible "principles," were shooting into the sky, tearing apart the "sky" of this mental space!

"—?!"

In that instant, Koyanskaya's mind was plunged into unprecedented chaos and confusion.

What…what is this?!

What the hell is this?!

Her immense sensory and analytical abilities were almost burned out at this moment!

...It's the Beast! There's no mistake! It's the manifestation of "human evil," which originates from the same source as her, and is even purer and more immense than her own! It's the goal she's pursued her whole life, the goal she wanted to become!

Especially that pillar of light filled with the breath of life, she couldn't even decipher it at all. It seemed to be the origin of all things, and also the end of all things.

No...that's not right! Impossible!!!

How could he summon the Beast to his side in a place like this? Logically, all his means of communication should be blocked by this space...

At that moment, Koyanskaya finally understood.

She finally understood what Yu Tohsaka's "return gift" meant.

He didn't bring any helpers with him... but he could summon them to his side at any time!

Yu Tohsaka, this guy is the most terrifying and dangerous... "monster"!

And he himself... had actually invited this "monster" into a cage that was isolated from the world, without any outside help, and absolutely closed...

Then, they locked herself in too!

Within those three pillars of light piercing the heavens and earth, three distinct figures, yet all radiating ultimate divine power—enough to drive any magician mad—slowly descended.

Emerging from that primordial pillar of chaotic light was an exceptionally beautiful woman with an unparalleled appearance.

She had a pair of very beautiful horns on her head, and her long hair cascaded down like a waterfall.

Her upper body was that of a perfect goddess, but her lower body was a massive, inhuman body, a combination of a dragon and a sea monster.

She didn't speak, but only uttered a sound that was both like singing and like a lament, "Aaaaaa—". Her loving, maternal eyes reflected only the image of Tohsaka Yu from beginning to end.

The creator goddess, the second beast, Tiamat.

Not far from her was a girl with long cherry blossom hair, dressed in a gorgeous divine age costume.

Her expression was indifferent, as if she had no interest in anything in the world, but deep within her crystal-like eyes burned a flame called "love" that was enough to incinerate the universe.

Kama, the god of love, one of the third beasts.

Besides that, there was a woman draped in a thin veil, with a charming demeanor.

With her eyes closed and hands clasped together, she appeared solemn and compassionate, like a living bodhisattva saving all sentient beings.

However, beneath her compassionate exterior lies the deepest selfishness and desire, capable of turning the entire world into her own paradise.

...Sesshouin Kiara.

The three most troublesome enemies of humanity have now descended upon this place simultaneously, using the small doll in Tohsaka Yu's hand as their vessel!

The smile on Koyanskaya's face had completely vanished, replaced by an expression of disbelief.

In an instant, the situation took a devastating turn.

The next second, the woman felt a desire to back out.

You have to understand that no matter how powerful she is, she is still just a candidate for "beast", but now she has to face three real "beasts" at the same time!

Koyanskaya quickly realized what was happening and forced herself to remain calm.

No matter what, it's impossible to face three beasts here at the same time.

We must...find a way to escape!

Thinking of this, Koyanskaya's beautiful face instantly produced an incredibly charming smile, even tinged with a pitiful air.

She gently pursed her alluring red lips and said softly in an almost coquettish tone:

"Oh dear... It seems I was mistaken. Mr. Tohsaka, it was all just a small matter..."

However, Tohsaka Yu didn't even glance at her, but simply smiled and said, "Go and tell them."

"Thank you for your trouble, Mother, Kama... Miss Sesshouin."

Kama glanced coldly at the boy and sneered, "Tohsaka Yu, do you think I'm your maid? Someone you can summon and dismiss at will..."

Yu Tohsaka was already used to the woman's arrogance and said with a smile, "After this great battle is over, I will ask Miss Touko to create another Beast's body... Then I will take you and Sakura to stroll around the streets."

Because of the Beast's extremely special existence, if its true form were to descend directly into the mortal world, it could even cause enormous trouble. Therefore, during this time in the 'imaginary world', Kama remained in a state of seclusion and boredom.

Upon hearing Tohsaka Yu's words, her beautiful eyes immediately lit up: "Really?"

Yu Tohsaka gave an affirmative answer.

"Since that's the case, then I'll help you out a little... Remember, I'm just going out to clear my head, not simply to help you!"

Having said that, the three beasts moved at the same time!

"Aaaaaaa——!!!"

Tiamat roared, and the power of creation transformed into a world-destroying sea of ​​black mud, sweeping towards Goyanskaya from all directions!

Not far away, Kama's eyes were indifferent. With a casual wave of his hand, countless arrows of love containing the power of the universe blocked all of Koyanskaya's escape routes!

Sesshouin Kiara slowly opened her compassionate eyes, filled with endless bliss and depravity, and was about to drag Koyanskaya's soul into her universe.

An irresistible, deadly battle erupted from three pinnacles of "human evil"!

It was a "hunt" that was both dazzling and desperate.

Facing three goddesses who stand at the pinnacle of "human evil," Koyanskaya unleashed her power, wisdom, and countless treasures from the NFF Merchant Guild to their fullest potential.

The sea of ​​black mud from creation surged in from all directions, trying to drag her back into the primordial chaos of returning to the womb.

She had to use the energy of the "mass extinction" to blast open small, fleeting footholds in the sea of ​​black mud time and time again.

The countless arrows of cosmic love flying through the sky were not intended to kill, but to conceptually "take away" her existence, making her a "captive" of Kama.

Koyanskaya could only repeatedly jump through space, even sacrificing several of her "tails" as substitutes, in order to barely evade the "love" that was impossible to defend against and came from the laws of the universe.

The most dangerous thing is Sesshouin Kiara's omnipresent, compassionate "temptation".

That was not an attack, but an invitation for "redemption".
