At this point, only Saber and the pink fairy girl remained at the port.

Chapter Twenty-Four: Will Alicia Destroy the World?

It's over. The first night of the Holy Grail War ended with the sound of sirens. All the Heroic Spirits who appeared in this battle revealed their true names.

The Holy Grail War is a simple story about seven Masters and Servants vying for the Holy Grail for their own desires. It is only because of the intervention of someone who does not belong to this time that the Holy Grail War has become more complicated.

The current comments are discussing which team would have won the Holy Grail War if Alicia hadn't been there.

Currently, only two Servants remain unknown, but it's estimated that there won't be any Servants stronger than the three kings. Therefore, the victor of this Holy Grail War will surely be Gilgamesh, since the strength he has displayed is such that even King Arthur and King Conqueror, the two Servants, are not confident of defeating him.

Of course, his personality is a fatal flaw. As the saying goes, even a lion uses its full strength to hunt a rabbit. However, the King of Heroes doesn't seem to take this saying seriously, but that is precisely his weakness. If the King of Heroes' eccentric personality is utilized, King Arthur and the King of Conquerors might not be without a chance of defeating him.

However, the addition of Alicia as a variable has made the Holy Grail War more unpredictable, as her support or participation will inevitably rewrite the outcome of the Holy Grail War.

Hachiman Hikigaya: "Actually, I've always been curious about what Alicia's purpose is. What profound meaning is there in adding an outsider who has absolutely no connection to the Holy Grail War?"

Yukino Yukinoshita: "Hachigaya-kun, what do you mean?"

Hachiman Hikigaya: "So, what would the outcome of this Holy Grail War be if Alicia hadn't existed? Alicia is a time traveler; in other words, she changed the original history, causing a branch in the historical narrative. What kind of impact would that have on this world?"

Romani: "This will lead to the destruction of the world."

Emiya Kiritsugu: “!!!”

Romani: "The appearance of Alicia has caused the Fourth Holy Grail War to deviate from its original historical trajectory. Although it is not very obvious now, as Alicia continues to intervene in the Holy Grail War, this timeline will gradually be separated from the normal timeline, thus forming a singularity."

Romani: "If the distorted history is not corrected, the consequences will be unimaginable. It will not only affect this one point in time, but the entire history of mankind may be affected, and the entire human race may perish as a result."

Bishop of Destiny: "Changing history could have such an impact?"

Conan: "Time travelers and history... This involves time paradoxes, but are the consequences really this terrifying?"

Ai Haibara: "It's because of the butterfly effect. A butterfly flapping its wings can cause a tornado. A tiny change in the initial conditions, when amplified, can cause a huge difference in the future state."

Eriri: "So, Alicia will cause that world to be destroyed?"

As Romani Archman explained, a barrage of comments flashed by rapidly; after all, it was about destroying the world.

The consequences would be far more terrible than seven people fighting over a broken cup. Most importantly, would the world really be destroyed by such an ignorant and naive girl?

King of Heroes: "Foolish! Singularities don't form out of thin air, much less so easily. As long as that thing exists, human history won't so easily head towards destruction."

After seeing what the commenter named Romani said in the comments section, the King of Heroes couldn't help but take a look. Not many people know about the existence and dangers of singularities, but the King of Heroes still had reservations about whether Alicia's existence would form a singularity.

The Counter Force isn't blind. Alicia has already jumped into the Holy Grail War. If there were even the slightest possibility that Alicia might pose a threat to humanity, the Counter Force would have already taken action. At that time, not only would a new Servant appear to save humanity, but the Holy Grail War would also have to stop operating.

Since the Counter Force hasn't acted yet, it means either Alicia is harmless, or the time hasn't come yet, so there's absolutely no need to rush...

.........

While the comments section was buzzing with opinions, the light screen imagery continued.

The sirens grew closer, and Irisviel knew it was time to evacuate, but... what should she do?

She glanced at Alicia beside her. For some reason, Alicia must be very lonely, because she has nowhere to go back to now, and she doesn't have a single friend or relative in this city.

Emotionally, Irisviel wanted to invite Alicia back to the castle with her, but the Holy Grail War was not over yet, and Alicia was not a participant. She had not even shown her stance. Bringing such a person to the base would be too risky.

Even if she agreed, Kiritsugu would definitely not agree, so in the end Irisviel said nothing, only looking at Alicia with a hint of apology. After all, Alicia had just been protecting her, and her current indifference felt like repaying kindness with enmity.

However, the beautiful girl, as radiant as a falling flower, didn't say anything. She simply smiled at her and Saber, then said, "The sirens are getting closer. You should hide. Don't worry about me~ Let's get out of here~"

What a gentle and lovely girl! How could such a girl be the catalyst for the destruction of the world? Who could accept that?

Upon hearing this, Irisviel knew that this place was not a good place to stay. She just gave Alicia a deep look and then went to find Kiritsugu with Saber.

After Irisviel and Saber left, only Alicia remained at the dock. Looking at the wrecked dock before her, Alicia pondered what to do next.

Speaking of which, why did she get involved in the Holy Grail War? Oh, right, it was because she wanted to see what a wonderful world it was like before the collapse. However, on her way to the city, she sensed the battle between Saber and Lancer, which is why she stopped there.

So now, naturally, it's time to continue exploring this wonderful world.

As for Gilgamesh's threat, Alicia had completely forgotten about it at this moment, because Gilgamesh was just too annoying. Even Alicia, who loved everyone, couldn't stand his arrogant and haughty attitude.

The beautiful girl quickly vanished into the darkness of the dock, leaving only the ambulances, fire trucks, and police cars that had come to her rescue after the gas explosion.

Chapter Twenty-Five: The Appearance of the Caster Group

Conan: "Alicia has mentioned many times that she wants to see the happy lives of people in this world. In other words, in her world, are most people unhappy?"

Ai Haibara: "What a cruel world it must be if even ordinary people can't live a normal life."

Eriri: "I don't think the people of Fuyuki City are happy at all. Look at the state of that dock now. Is it really safe to live in that city?"

Kasumigaoka Utaha: "As the saying goes, when gods fight, mortals suffer. It's just that there's no one at the dock at night, otherwise several lives would have been lost."

Bishop of Destiny: "Hmm... it's not as serious as you think. Although there are dangers like Heroic Spirits, they come from history and mythology, and this world hides those special powers very well, so ordinary people can generally live ordinary and happy lives."

Tokiomi Tohsaka: "Mr. Otto is right. The Mage's Association keeps its secrets very well hidden. Any act of revealing secrets is not allowed. The Holy Grail War is also conducted in absolute secrecy and will not have the slightest impact on ordinary people..."

Because of the destruction caused by the Heroic Spirits, to be honest, it's hard for people in the multiverse to imagine how the Holy Grail War managed to remain hidden for so long without being discovered.

Perhaps it's truly because these Masters are so self-disciplined that they haven't allowed the mystery to surface into the public eye...

.........

However, just as the comments section was discussing how the magician was hiding his secrets, the screen had already shifted the camera away from Alicia.

It was a house with the door open in the middle of the night. In the dark, unlit room, a boy of about twelve or thirteen years old lay in a pool of blood, covered in blood. Beside him lay an adult, who appeared to be the boy's parents.

Beside him stood a cheerful young man with orange hair and a bright smile, holding a bloodstained dagger. The television next to him was broadcasting news about a serial killer, and without a doubt, this killer was this seemingly cheerful young man.

This deranged killer didn't even glance at the corpse at his feet; he was simply drawing strange patterns with the blood on the ground.

The item he was referring to was a black magic book he had bought from some street stall, something that was obviously meant to fool children, yet this guy treated it as the real thing.

Honestly, it's quite funny, but many people frowned and felt a chill after watching it, because this man actually wanted to perform an evil ritual based on a tattered book he bought from some unknown street stall. This kind of person is either crazy or mentally ill, and absolutely cannot be understood with normal thinking.

Moreover, although this guy looks outrageous, the pictures he draws are very delicate. He even uses his feet to draw, and the pictures are still very complete. His painting skills are outrageous. He definitely has the talent of a painter, and it is very high.

But such a talented person, who always has a bright and sunny smile, did things that were truly terrifying. The contrast was so great that it made people's scalp tingle.

Why would the light screen display something unrelated to the Holy Grail War and Alicia? Although this murderer was quite hateful, he shouldn't be involved in the content of the light screen, right? Everyone had doubts, but soon, the light screen resolved their doubts.

The camera focused on Ryunosuke Uryu's right hand, where a clearly visible red Command Seal tattoo was displayed.

The Command Seal is an abstract image resembling a scythe slashing with a sharp edge. Although the pattern of the Command Seal on each magician's hand is different, it is highly recognizable because it is a red pattern attached to the back of the hand.

As the camera turned to the Command Seal on the back of Ryunosuke Uryu's right hand, the summoning circle engraved on it also lit up, and white light began to emerge as the magic power surged.

Upon witnessing this scene, viewers across the multiverse felt a chill, especially those in the Type-Moon universe. Although they had never seen a Servant summoning ritual before, this was undoubtedly the process of summoning a Servant.

Even such a perverted scumbag can summon servants. What kind of heroic spirit would respond to the call of this madman?

Upon seeing this, Ryunosuke Uryu's eyes lit up, and his bright smile widened even further: "Ah, did I succeed? Did I really succeed? This is amazing! This is so cool~~~"

This cheerful and trendy look made more people feel cold in their hearts, and they thought that this guy was indeed a real lunatic.

And the most important thing is that this madman can actually get a response from the heroic spirits and summon servants.

Almost instantly, people's impression of the nobleness of heroic spirits was greatly impacted - it seemed that not all heroic spirits were great.

Every hero who appeared before is very famous. Even if they are not world-famous, they must be well-known heroes in their respective regions.

Even though Gilgamesh is foul-mouthed and has a bad personality, he is still a positive character in mythology. Moreover, as the earliest king with epic records, Gilgamesh is quite popular in the history book world.

Although Gilgamesh is far less famous than King Conqueror and King Arthur in terms of popular popularity, most of the history about Gilgamesh is mythological epic, and not everyone knows the full details of such a long history.

However, with his title as the oldest king and his handsome appearance, despite his terrible personality, Gilgamesh was seen as a positive character by most people. Even the images on the screen said that Gilgamesh was 'good'.

It is evident that in the eyes of the world, heroic spirits are righteous and noble. Regardless of their personalities, their lives must have been filled with glorious deeds recorded in human history.

However, now, a situation seems to subvert people's inherent impression.

When a strange man appeared, dressed in a long blue robe, exuding an aura of evil, with wide, intelligent eyes, people's preconceived notions about heroic spirits were finally shattered and reshaped.

This strange man, who is obviously not a good person at first glance, is completely inconsistent with the style of other heroes.

After the man appeared, he asked in a deep voice, "I ask you, you who summoned me, who sought me, who made me descend as a Caster, tell me your name... Who are you?"

Chapter Twenty-Six: The Perverted Caster Combination

Eriri: "Disgusting, absolutely disgusting! How can there be such a person among the Heroic Spirits?"

Madara Uchiha: "Hmph, this time it's not just the Master, but even the Servants are such dark and disgusting ants."

Kyojuro Rengoku: "This guy's heart is more evil than a demon's when he attacks ordinary people!"

Conan: "Tokiomi Tohsaka, didn't you say that the Holy Grail War would never involve ordinary people? How do you explain this situation?"

Tokiomi Tohsaka: "This... is impossible. How could the Holy Grail choose an ordinary person as its Master to participate in the Holy Grail War, especially such a sinful person?"

At the Tohsaka residence, Tokiomi Tohsaka looked astonished, his elegance completely gone. Not long ago, he had said that magicians were very good at hiding their mysteries, and that ordinary people would never come into contact with their world. But now, he was being slapped in the face.

Generally speaking, only magicians can participate in the Holy Grail War and summon Servants. Summoning a Heroic Spirit is a miracle, and the preparation process required is extremely complex. Ordinary people, even if they know about the Holy Grail War, have absolutely no chance of summoning one.

However, Ryunosuke Uryu summoned the Heroic Spirit in such a sloppy and even ridiculous way, which was simply a desecration of the Holy Grail War.

No, we have to take care of him before Ryunosuke Uryu summons Caster...

Tokiomi Tohsaka thought to himself, of course, there was another person who thought the same thing, that's right, it was Kiritsugu Emiya, the ally of justice, not only because of Ryunosuke Uryuu's character, but also because he wanted to deal with the Caster group in advance.

.........

[The light screen image shows Caster appearing, and the camera gives him a close-up of his face. Even through the screen, everyone is startled by his strange appearance and instinctively backs away.]

When Ryunosuke Uryu heard Caster's question, he was momentarily stunned, then scratched his head somewhat evasively and said, "Um, um... my name is Ryunosuke Uryu, I'm a freelancer, my hobby is all methods of killing, I like children and young women..."

Listening to Ryunosuke Uryuu's words, countless people in the multiverse were internally complaining: "Is this some kind of self-introduction? Do you think you're on a blind date? And what's with the 'reserved' attitude?!"

Even so, Ryunosuke Uryu's words still sent chills down the spines of countless people. After all, he had just said that his interests were the means of killing, and his so-called liking for children and young women didn't seem like normal liking at all.

Or perhaps they omitted some details... such as their fondness for killing children and young women.

As for Ryunosuke Uryuu's words, the Caster who had just been summoned had no questions or doubts, and calmly nodded, saying, "Very good, the contract is established. The Holy Grail that you seek is also my long-cherished wish. I am sure that the Cauldron of Paradise will fall into our hands."

Hearing Caster's words, Ryunosuke Uryu blinked, his face full of confusion: "The Holy... Grail?"

But soon, he changed his expression to one of 'I don't understand, but it's a small matter, it doesn't matter,' and a hearty smile returned to his face: "Anyway, let's have a banquet first to get to know each other better!"
