Did the Heroic Spirit I conquered become a reality?

The magnificent Great Complex Temple beneath him erupted once more with an even more dazzling light, and divine lightning, more violent and concentrated than before, poured down upon Tiamat once more!

However, Tiamat simply opened her mouth again in response to the Sun King's angry attack.

“Aaa…”

She let out another soft moan filled with pleasure, as if savoring a continuous stream of desserts, effortlessly devouring each and every bolt of divine lightning capable of destroying everything, completely consuming the violent magic!

At this moment, a sudden change occurred!

As Tiamat absorbed a massive amount of divine magic, a vast aura, both sacred and ominous, suddenly emanated from her body.

A softly glowing phantom, resembling the Holy Grail, slowly emerged from her chest!

It was the core of the Greater Grail that she had devoured and that had now reappeared after absorbing a massive amount of magical power!

"That's... the Holy Grail?!"

High above, Gilgamesh, who had been observing coldly, suddenly narrowed his crimson eyes the moment he saw the phantom of the Holy Grail.

At the same time, Artoria, who was not far away, also felt the immense aura unique to "Miracle". Her gaze suddenly turned towards it, and for the first time, a blazing flame ignited in her usually resolute and calm emerald green eyes.

The Greater Grail... actually manifested in this way!

With the arrival of the Greater Grail, the delicate standoff and balance on the battlefield were instantly shattered. Everyone's attention was focused on the phantom of the Grail that emitted a soft light, and no one could sit still any longer!

"Lancer!" Kenneth, far away at another base, saw this scene through a magical medium, his voice filled with barely suppressed excitement and greed, "Take the Holy Grail at all costs!"

Without further hesitation, Artoria unleashed a dazzling light from the Holy Lance in her hand, transforming herself into a silver-blue meteor as she hurtled straight toward the core of the Greater Grail!

Meanwhile, in another direction, as Gorgon sensed the Holy Grail's aura, brimming with immense life force and magic, an intense longing erupted from his blindfolded "gaze."

"--roar!!!"

Gorgon let out an angry roar, and its huge, twisted body stretched out its ferocious claws toward the core of the Holy Grail!

In an instant, Lancer, Berserker, and even the enraged Sun King Osmandis, three top Servants, engaged in an even more intense battle in the skies above the port in their struggle for ownership of the Holy Grail!

Gilgamesh remained atop Vimana, but seemed to be stirring with ambition as well.

They all knew very well that whoever obtained the Holy Grail first would be the ultimate victor in this war!

However, just as the Noble Phantasms of the three powerful Servants were about to touch the core of the Holy Grail, and an even more terrifying melee was about to erupt above the port, a cold, clear voice, carrying an undeniable majesty, resounded throughout the entire battlefield like a divine pronouncement.

"—An order is issued in the name of Ruler."

Morgan le Fay, who had been standing silently at the center of the battle, slowly raised her fair right hand. On the back of her hand, several bright red command seals, symbolizing the authority of the "arbitrator," suddenly lit up in the night, radiating an unparalleled power of rules!

"—Archer, Lancer, Rider, Berserker, cease your pointless fighting here!"

Om-! ! !

Almost the instant she finished speaking, three Command Seals containing absolute force shot towards Artoria, Ottomandis, and Gorgon, who were rushing towards them!

"what?!"

The three top Servants froze abruptly. They could clearly feel an irresistible binding force from the deepest rules of the Holy Grail War instantly imprisoning their Spirit Origins! Even if this constraint was only for a moment, it was enough to settle the matter of who would possess the Greater Grail.

Under the shocked and resentful gazes of the crowd, Morgan walked gracefully to Tiamat, extended her slender hand, and firmly grasped the "Holy Grail Core" that emitted a soft light in her palm.

She ignored the Servants who were temporarily bound by Command Seals, and simply turned around to look at Tohsaka Yu not far away.

Those blue eyes, which had always been as cold as frost, seemed to soften at this moment, and a unique and extremely complex brilliance, which Tohsaka Yu had never seen before, flickered within them.

“Caster,” she said softly, her voice carrying a rare tenderness that she herself was unaware of.

I owe you a favor, and I will definitely repay you in the future.

Having said that, she no longer hesitated, lowered her head and gazed at the core of the Holy Grail in her hand, which radiated a warm light, and in a voice that only she could hear, with utmost sincerity, she made a wish that she had been pursuing for a thousand years.

The next second, an extremely dazzling light erupted from the core of the Holy Grail, instantly engulfing her entire figure.

After the light faded, both Morgan and the entity that served as the "core of the Holy Grail" had... vanished from the spot.

With the disappearance of the Holy Grail, the "rules" and "reasons" that sustained this war also collapsed completely.

In the night sky above Fuyuki City, the Servants who were fiercely clashing all felt their connection to this world rapidly weakening at almost the same time. Their spirit-like bodies began to uncontrollably transform into specks of golden light, slowly dissipating.

"Tch...what a boring ending." High in the sky, the Hero King Gilgamesh looked at his palm, which was gradually becoming transparent, and his face showed an extremely displeased expression. But in the end, he just snorted coldly, turned into golden light, and disappeared into the night sky.

The Sun King Osmandis, atop the temple, glanced deeply in the direction of Tohsaka Yu, as if wanting to say something, but in the end, he could only let out a helpless sigh and vanish into nothingness along with his magnificent composite temple.

Artoria held the Holy Lance, her emerald green eyes glancing at Tohsaka Yu with a complex expression, then looking with some concern in the direction where her sister had disappeared not long ago, her eyes filled with confusion and bewilderment.

I wonder... what wish my sister made?

"Oh dear, it seems this overtime work is finally over ahead of schedule."

Merlin walked over to Tohsaka Yu, his gentle smile returning to his face. He patted Yu's shoulder. "Tohsaka-kun, I hope we'll have a chance to meet again... Well, if possible, I don't want to see you again. Nothing good ever comes of it..."

Merlin muttered something to himself, and his figure transformed into fluttering petals, disappearing into the night wind.

Soon, only Tohsaka Yu and Sajou Aika remained on the battlefield.

Yuu Tohsaka could sense that her Spirit Origin as a Servant was becoming unstable due to the end of the Holy Grail War, and that she was about to be forcibly repatriated.

He looked at the princess who had been by his side from beginning to end, and his heart was filled with indescribable complex emotions.

"Love Song..."

Just as Yuu Tohsaka was about to say something, Ayaka Sajō sighed softly first, "Will I never see you again...?"

Yu Tohsaka was taken aback for a moment, then quickly shook her head and smiled, "How could that be... We'll meet again."

Sajou Aika looked surprised and asked, "Really?"

"If I were to come looking for Yu-kun someday... would you welcome me?" she continued to ask.

Yu Tohsaka paused for a moment, then quickly smiled gently: "Of course... I've always welcomed you, Aika."

After all, it's time to part ways. Leaving a little hope behind will make the girl less sad.

With these thoughts in mind, Tohsaka Yu silently closed her eyes.

His body completely turned into specks of light and dissipated into the night of the Fourth Holy Grail War.

……

London, Clock Tower.

The student dormitory was somewhat messy.

When Yu Tohsaka opened her eyes again, a familiar scene came into view.

A light drizzle continued to fall outside the window, and a familiar scent filled the air.

Everything seemed unchanged, just like the thrilling Holy Grail War in Fuyuki City was nothing more than a dream that was too real.

But the unbreakable connection deep within his soul to Tiamat, and the vast, ocean-like EX-rank magic power within him, clearly told him that all of this had actually happened.

Just then, a familiar pale blue light screen slowly appeared in front of him.

[Singularity: The Fourth Holy Grail War, revised.]

[Detection indicates that the host has successfully intervened in and guided the final outcome of the Holy Grail War; humanity has been slightly corrected...]

[Final mission settlement begins...]

[Rewards settled.]

[Congratulations, host! You have received the following rewards:]

[1. Special Ability: The "White Dragon Furnace Core" has been permanently solidified.]

[2. Special Affix: "Blessing of the Fairy Queen" - Effect: Slightly increases charm and negotiation skills towards fairies and related creatures; when facing myths, magic, or enemies related to Britain, there is a very small chance of receiving a blessing from the 'Utopia'. Description: That queen, it seems, finally acknowledged you.]

Looking at the two rewards, especially the last special entry related to Morgan, Yu Tohsaka was stunned for a moment, then let out a long breath, and the huge weight that had been hanging in her heart finally fell to the ground.

Thus, the Fourth Holy Grail War ended in this way... and the Greater Grail disappeared completely, so the even more devastating Fifth Holy Grail War should never happen again.

Rin, Sakura... they can both have a relatively peaceful future.

As Yu Tohsaka was thinking about this, her gaze suddenly froze on the line of text in the system reward.

On another note, the moon ripples, the umbrella whistles, the fins sing, and the mountain is lush and green—

Logically speaking, Aika had previously summoned Beast Kama, and after that, Kama was successfully defeated, and the Fourth Holy Grail War should now be over...

Why does the system's reward notification indicate that human nature has been slightly corrected?

Shouldn't it be a complete overhaul?

For a moment, Yu Tohsaka fell into deep thought.

……

It's light.

A soft halo of light pierced through layers of clouds and mist, illuminating the woman's fair and aloof face.

Morgan tilted her head back slightly, letting the warm light fall on her skin. She slowly closed her eyes, her long eyelashes casting soft shadows under her eyelids, as if greedily savoring this long-lost, pure warmth, devoid of any conspiracy or calculation.

Finally... I'm back.

The woman murmured to herself.

From the doomed struggle in Britain, to the eternal solitude of Avalon, and then to the Holy Grail War in Fuyuki City filled with absurdity and surprise... she has walked too long and carried too much burden.

However... at least the ending was happy.

It seemed that (II) Yi-+wu Qi Liuren had thought of something interesting. For the first time, a very faint, yet heartfelt smile appeared on Morgan's beautiful face.

That smile no longer held the majesty of a fairy queen, nor the scheming of a witch; it held only the peaceful relief of someone who had finally shed all burdens.

Everything from the past, whether it was Camelot's glory or the feud with his sister, has faded into the past.

Here, on this brand new land full of endless possibilities, she will build something that belongs only to her…

The Fairy Kingdom.

Volume 1: Chapter 77 Kenneth's Invitation, The Emergence of Singularity 5

Two days passed in the blink of an eye.

In the past two days, Yu Tohsaka's life seems to have returned to the peaceful and regular trajectory it had before the Holy Grail War began.

He attended classes in the Department of Minerals on time, researched materials in the library, and tried his best to get his graduation thesis, which had been completely messed up by various "accidents," back on track.

In addition, every night, he would quietly take Tiamat for a stroll on the streets outside the clock tower.

Of course, he was also waiting for someone.

...Kenneth.

After all, he had just recently turned the Fourth Holy Grail War upside down, and could even be said to have single-handedly "ended" that ritual.

Although the final result was that Kenneth and his adoptive father Tokiomi Tohsaka were successfully saved, and their destined tragedy was avoided, it could also be considered that... a world where no one was hurt was created.

However, the person involved may not necessarily think that way.

Yu Tohsaka could almost imagine the fury Kenneth would unleash upon returning to the Clock Tower after escaping the chaos in Fuyuki City.

……

Inside the tiered classroom of the Mineral Science Department, the old hanging bell had not yet rung, but students had already taken their seats one after another.

Yu Tohsaka sat alone in the back row of the classroom by the window, staring blankly at the gloomy sky outside, her thoughts drifting away.

For no reason at all, I thought of Morgan and Sajou Aika again.

What exactly did that woman wish for before the Holy Grail? Was her statement, "I will repay your kindness," just a casual remark?

Where is she now?

Was she in the Throne of Heroes... or... did she use the Holy Grail to make a wish and go somewhere?

Besides Morgan, the person that Yu Tohsaka cares about the most is probably Ayaka Sajou.

I wonder if she has returned to her own time after the Holy Grail War ended... and what she is doing now?

Although they only spent a short time together, he still had a very deep memory of that girl.

So much so that I still feel a little nostalgic now.

Just as Tohsaka Yu's thoughts were becoming increasingly chaotic due to these messy things, the school bell finally rang.

An elderly professor with gray hair and a serious expression walked into the classroom carrying a thick book of magic.
