Abnormal Moon

Upon hearing this, Taigong Wang finally felt relieved.

As agreed, he would help Roy until his Servant body was worn down to its limit, not only in this Holy Grail War, but also when Roy rebuilds the magic system in the future, he would also contribute his modest efforts.

Given Roy's stubbornness, if he entered the hole with the intention of certain death, Taigong Wang would only die there as well, thus preventing him from fulfilling his wish. He would never allow Taigong Wang to go in with him.

Chapter 123 Roy, Chosen by the Root (43, Bonus Chapter if Average Subscriptions Exceed 800)

Seeing how readily Roy agreed, he probably had some confidence in choosing to go to the outer reaches of the world. He wasn't going with the mindset of certain death, but rather with the belief that he would definitely come back alive, and it wouldn't affect his future ability to fulfill his wish.

And in fact, that's exactly what Roy thought.

As for bringing the Greater Grail along, that was just Roy's personal motive.

It would be such a shame to destroy the Greater Grail like this. Although it's not possible now, if the curse in the Greater Grail could be cleansed in the future, it would be an all-powerful wish-granting machine and a soul materialization machine, which could help him have eternal life and an immortal soul.

Since leaving it here might cause disaster, let's take it to the outside world and hide it in a way that only Roy knows, so that it can be recycled and reused in the future.

Putting it into the imaginary space won't work. The imaginary space only contains very few things and has very thin concepts, but it's not completely empty. Moreover, precisely because it's an imaginary domain that only a very small number of people can utilize, it's more likely to encounter some formidable monsters and demons. If the corrupted Holy Grail were to be taken away by such a guy, it would be disastrous. Not only would it be a complete waste, but it could also trigger an even greater crisis.

And the outer side of the world is truly a place where there is almost nothing.

"I do not care!"

Rin Tohsaka shouted in despair.

"Rin, I'm leaving the mansion in your care."

Roy smiled and gave Rin Tohsaka some instructions.

"Please take care of them while I'm gone. Don't worry, I'll definitely be back. I have a feeling it won't take long."

Taigong Wang began sealing the Greater Grail. A massive magic circle unfolded around the crater, blocking the surrounding magic and distorting the internal space, sealing the Greater Grail along with the enormous curse surrounding it.

Before long, Taigong Wang came to Roy and handed him a bead.

The bead was entirely dark blue, surrounded by countless layers of magic arrays. Through these arrays, one could see a scarlet sphere carved with the likeness of a human woman sealed inside, surrounded by a lake of black mud.

"With the Master's Mystic Eyes, breaking the seal shouldn't be difficult."

"really."

Roy attempted to intervene with the seal using his Mystic Eyes, and it was indeed easy to tear it apart.

"Then let's go!"

"it is good!"

As soon as Taigong Wang snapped his fingers, the two of them flew into the air together.

As they climbed higher, they gradually approached the hole in mid-air. Without the support of the Greater Grail's magic, the hole was already shrinking, and the two quickly jumped inside.

Soon, the hole disappeared completely.

However, before jumping in.

Taigong Wang suddenly glanced down.

"So that's it, it really was him..."

He smiled slightly, then left with a sense of relief.

not far away.

"Oh dear, we were exposed after all!"

A figure dispelled its spiritual form and appeared on the highway only two hundred meters away from Mount Yuanzang.

He lifted his hood, revealing a head of long, azure ponytail hair. He wore a white-based robe, like that of a druid, and held a slender, spear-like wand in his hand. He looked very young and handsome, but his appearance was quite mature.

"I thought I could get some screen time in the final battle, but I didn't expect them to defeat that Hero King all by themselves. I couldn't even do them a favor... Well, it's rare to have a chance to relax. This world is so interesting, I might as well explore it more. How can I go back so easily?"

The blue-haired youth hummed a cheerful tune, then turned and vanished in a phantom form.

In the big hollow.

Rin Tohsaka looked at the now empty crater, then at the hole in the sky that had disappeared, a deep sense of worry flashing in her eyes.

She knew that Roy no longer cared about his life, and he also had Taigong Wang following him, but this still couldn't dispel her worries. After all, that was the outer side of the world, the place where the source resided. How could ordinary people be allowed to approach it?

"You must come back! You've helped me so much, and I haven't even... repaid you with my body yet..."

By the end, her voice had become barely audible, and her face was flushed with embarrassment.

Luckily, there was no one around!

Rin Tohsaka patted her cheeks, trying to calm herself down, and then walked out of the Great Hollow.

Aosaki House.

Illya and the others, who were waiting for Roy's triumphant return, only received Rin Tohsaka instead.

To those like Kasumigaoka Utaha who only understood nine out of ten aspects of magic, Rin Tohsaka reassured them by saying, "The Holy Grail War is over, and Roy has won a complete victory, but he has something to attend to and has to leave for a while."

The girls didn't understand these things, so they naturally believed whatever Rin Tohsaka said. They quickly calmed down and went to rest.

But Rin Tohsaka could no longer hide the truth from Illya, who regarded Roy as her younger brother.

"You said Roy jumped into the outer reaches of the world?!"

When Ilya learned the truth, she was furious.

"Why didn't you stop him! You're useless, Rin!"

"You're really bold, kid. This was Roy's own choice!"

"That's true, but what if something happens to him?"

"This one……"

Rin Tohsaka was speechless for a moment, then gave her answer with a confident air.

"I believe in him!"

"...You, a magician, can be so sentimental."

Ilya gave her a strange look.

His gaze was surprisingly kind.

On the contrary, Rin Tohsaka got goosebumps from her gaze.

"Are you talking about Roy?"

Just then, two familiar figures returned to the Aozaki residence.

The sisters, Touko and Aoko, returned home together.

Knowing that the Holy Grail War had ended, they returned to inquire about the outcome.

I never expected to hear such explosive words!

"You're saying Roy jumped to the other side of the world?"

Aozaki Touko's expression was strange, her features contorted as if she had eaten a sour plum that had been handled poorly.

"Hey, he actually jumped in by himself?"

On the contrary, Aozaki Aoko nodded approvingly upon hearing this.

"How perceptive! I was thinking that if he hadn't thought of jumping in, I would have kicked him in!"

"Do you know what you're saying, Aoko?"

Aozaki Touko's face was frighteningly gloomy. She suddenly moved closer to Aoko and glared at her fiercely.

"Don't get so agitated, Roy will be fine."

Aozaki Aoko laughed twice and nudged Touko's face, which was very close to hers.

It's rare to see someone care about Orange so much!

Is Roy some kind of humanoid succubus?

"Do you remember what I told you before, that you were twice propelled by some kind of force to take action?"

Why bring this up now?

Aozaki Touko frowned, looking at her with impatience.

"One time was that night when I helped Roy force King Arthur to retreat, and the other time was three years ago when I saved a homunculus in the snow."

Aozaki Aoko shrugged, ignoring Touko's words and giving her own answer.

Aozaki Touko paused slightly.

Did you save an artificial human in a heavy snow three years ago?

Isn't that just——

“That’s right, that’s Roy.”

Aozaki Aoko found a chair, pulled it out, sat down, propped her chin on one hand, and smiled leisurely.

"Both times, it was the Root that pushed me to act, but both times it was to save Roy. Do you understand what that means? Roy is the one chosen by the Root. Even if you die, he won't die."
