In just a few seconds, this old magician, who had lived for five hundred years and was extremely wicked, was completely devoured by his own most prized magic in the most cruel and painful way, and was executed here!

With the death of the true form, the pile of rotting flesh that was reorganizing in the underground insect warehouse also completely lost its vitality, turning into a pile of lifeless insect corpses.

"Let's go."

Gu Chuan didn't glance at the hellish scene again. He pulled up Rin and Sakura, who were still somewhat dazed, and used a vector shield to isolate them from the disgusting surroundings. He then led them away from this filthy basement that had buried countless sins, thus completely protecting their innocent childhood from the contamination of this hellish scene.

The three of them did not stay at the Matou residence for long.

After confirming that Zouken Matou was completely dead, they went straight to the mansion's library.

This place houses all the magic manuals of the Matou family, accumulated over hundreds of years.

"Separate groups to search," Gu Chuan ordered. "Find all information related to the Holy Grail War, the summoning of Heroic Spirits, and the Einzbern family."

"Yes!"

Rin and Sakura immediately sprang into action.

Soon, Rin found a detailed document on the "Heroic Spirit Summoning Ritual" written in ancient script on a hidden bookshelf. Meanwhile, the meticulous Sakura also found, among a pile of inconspicuous clutter, a document detailing the creation of "auxiliary dolls" used by the Einzbern family in several Holy Grail Wars.

"well-done."

Gu Chuan looked at the documents in their hands and nodded in satisfaction. He then carefully put away all the valuable documents.

The pieces for the Holy Grail War have been mostly assembled.

And he, this "observer" from another world, is about to officially intervene in this bloody and cruel ritual surrounding the "omnipotent wish-granting machine" in a completely new and unprecedented manner.

A good show is about to begin. :2159sulfur-deleted-erzan.

The meaning of the 119 Holy Grails and the purifying heavenly fire

Having obtained all the information he wanted, Gu Chuan did not rush to leave.

He looked at the two sisters beside him, who were silent and confused because their family's sins had been completely exposed, and spoke calmly, as if he were stating a trivial matter.

Do you know why I got involved in this so-called Holy Grail War?

Rin and Sakura both looked up at the same time, their eyes filled with confusion.

In their eyes, someone like Gu Chuan, practically a god, had no need for an "omnipotent wish-granting machine." The immense magical power the Holy Grail could provide was probably nothing more than dust to him. And what attraction did that legendary ultimate reward, which supposedly connected to the very source of the world, hold for a transcendent being like him, who was already close to the "source" itself?

"Making a wish means absolutely nothing to me."

Gu Chuan's words pierced through their doubts.

"What I seek is not the Holy Grail itself, but the miracle that constitutes its core, the Third Grail."

His eyes, like those of a seeker of knowledge and an explorer, shone with a deep longing.

"To liberate the soul from the constraints of cause and effect and the body, and to endow it with an independent form and the ability to interfere with the material world... This ultimate application of the materialization of the soul is something that even I cannot easily achieve. The laws contained within it play a crucial role in enhancing my power."

"As for the others..." He glanced at the books on the bookshelf that contained records of twisting magic, "Even seemingly low-level systems like insect magic can produce unexpected miracles if analyzed and recreated."

He was telling them that he participated in this war not for slaughter and plunder, but to pursue a higher level of "reason" and to draw inspiration from all the knowledge in the world.

Having explained his purpose, Gu Chuan said no more. He turned around and, with the two sisters, returned to that hellish underground insect warehouse filled with sin and filth.

He wanted to use this place to draw a magnificent and purifying conclusion to the Matou family's centuries of sins.

"Okay."

He slowly stretched out his hand towards the desolate "sea" composed of countless insect corpses.

"The Dominator, Form One—"

"[All things are born]."

As he finished speaking, a dazzling light shone from his golden divine eyes!

A dominating force, as if creating a new world and brimming with life, instantly enveloped the entire underground insect warehouse!

The millions of ugly, twisted corpses of the marking insects seemed to have been given new life and form, and began to metamorphose rapidly and gracefully! Their shells transformed into colorful butterfly wings, and their decay solidified into light bodies.

In just a few breaths, this filthy hell was transformed into a dreamlike kingdom!

Millions of beautiful, shimmering butterflies took flight from the sea of ​​corpses! They converged into a dazzling, radiant galaxy, illuminating the entire dark basement as bright as day!

“So… so beautiful…”

Rin and Sakura stared blankly at the miraculous scene before them, completely forgetting to breathe.

However, this beauty is deadly.

"Type Two—"

"【Infernal Tornado】".

Gu Chuan's voice rang out again.

In an instant, all those beautiful butterflies transformed into golden flames burning with purifying fire! They gathered, swirled, and rose, forming a fiery tornado that stretched across the heavens and earth, powerful enough to incinerate everything!

boom--! ! ! !

The fiery tornado erupted from the insect warehouse! With unstoppable force, it devoured, purified, and obliterated the entire Matou family mansion, along with all the remaining shadows and dark matter underground!

And the "Ushi-shitsu" curse, which had already transcended space, was completely detonated in this purified heavenly fire! No matter where Zouken Matou's true form fled to, in the end, he could not escape the cycle of cause and effect, the final judgment!

When everything settled down, that once gloomy mansion, along with its centuries of sins, was completely erased from the world, leaving no trace.

Rin watched all this, her heart filled with mixed emotions. She couldn't help but mutter to herself, "Such a big commotion... tomorrow's news will probably just say it was a gas pipeline accident, right?"

This contrasting comment eased the originally heavy atmosphere considerably.

Liudong Temple, a large underground cave.

This is the center of Fuyuki City's spiritual veins, and also the location of the "Greater Grail".

Gu Chuan, along with Rin and Sakura, arrived at this vast, naturally formed underground space. He combined all the magical resources he had plundered from the Matou family with the foundation of the Tohsaka family, and quickly completed a Heroic Spirit summoning circle that was far more luxurious and perfect than any ritual in the original work.

"Are you ready?" Gu Chuan glanced at Lin.

"Yes!" Rin nodded heavily.

Gu Chuan said no more. He walked to the center of the magic circle, stretched out his hand, and three scarlet command spells, symbolizing "absolute command authority," quietly appeared on the back of his hand.

He slowly began to recite the ancient invocation that connected to the Throne of Heroes.

“——Announce!”

"Your body is beneath me, and my destiny is bestowed upon your sword!"

"Responding to the call of the Holy Grail, obeying the principles of this moment, those who answer my call, I am the one who accomplishes all good deeds in the world, I am the one who eradicates all evil deeds in the world!"

"You, who have been bound by the three great incantations for seven days, have crossed the wheel of suppression and come here!"

"—Guardian of the scales!"

As he finished chanting, the entire summoning circle burst forth with an unprecedented, dazzling light capable of tearing through space!

A terrifying aura, so powerful that it made the entire spiritual veins of Fuyuki City tremble, suddenly descended upon Bu!

The Oath of 120 Camlann and the Corrupted Holy Grail

In distant British legend, the final resting place is Camlann Hill.

Corpses littered the fields and rivers of blood flowed.

The young knight king, leaning on the holy sword that symbolized glory and victory, knelt amidst mountains of corpses and seas of blood. Before her lay a devastated, shattered ideal kingdom, and in her ears echoed the dying cries and curses of her former friends and compatriots.

"...Did I do something wrong?"

Artoria Pendragon murmured in self-reproach. She had pulled the sword from the stone, shouldered the fate of Britain, won war after war, and protected her people for over a decade. But in the end, this was the end she received.

If... if it hadn't been me who drew that sword, but someone else more suited to be king...

Would Britain have avoided such a demise if it had?

Just as she was trapped in endless regret and despair, a grand will, belonging to no living being in this world, descended upon her consciousness.

Let's make a pact with the world.

That will promised her: to become a "Heroic Spirit" who protects human history, fighting endlessly through eternity. In exchange, she would gain the right to participate in a ritual called the "Holy Grail War" two thousand years in the future. If she could win that war, the omnipotent wish-granting machine would grant her any wish.

"I...will."

Without the slightest hesitation, the young female knight king offered up everything she had.

She had only one wish—

"Let Britain choose a new king!"

As that grand will and vow faded into the distance, Artoria's consciousness was drawn by a powerful, timeless summoning force.

When she opened her emerald green eyes again, she found herself in a vast, magically imbued underground cavern. A black-haired, golden-eyed, and serene young man stood before her. The three scarlet Command Seals on the back of his hand proclaimed him as her Master.

"Tell me—" She gripped the holy sword hidden by the Wind King's barrier, and in a clear yet majestic voice, following an ancient ritual, she asked, "—Are you my Mast?"

However, the boy's answer was completely unexpected.

"Artoria Pendragon".

Gu Chuan calmly called out her real name.

"It's a pleasure to meet you, King Knight of Britain. Or should I address you as...b?"

His gaze seemed to see through everything, even piercing through her masculine armor constructed of magic, revealing her true, girlish body.

"!!!"

Artoria's pupils suddenly contracted!

Her real name! Her gender! These should have been her greatest secrets, yet, the moment she was summoned, this mysterious Master revealed them all in a single sentence!

“No need to be so nervous.” Gu Chuan smiled, as if he could see through her guard. “I’m not interested in your past. But, could I see your sword? That legendary, indestructible sword that brings victory and glory… Excalibur.”

Under Gu Chuan's gaze, which seemed to see right through her soul, Artoria complied with his request as if possessed.

She dispelled the "Wind King Barrier" that protected the true name of the sword.

A magnificent golden sword, its blade radiating a divine light, appeared before everyone!

Rin Tohsaka, standing to the side, was so shocked by the sight of the legendary holy sword that she was speechless.

However, the moment Gu Chuan saw the sword, a glint of approval flashed in his eyes.

"I see... It's not simply a weapon against people or cities, but a divinely crafted weapon forged by the planet itself to protect primate civilizations..."

He succinctly revealed the deepest essence of this sword.

"Its true power is not to kill enemies, but to protect the world. Once its true name is released, its power is enough to... destroy planets."

"—This is the true form of the Star Sword."

Gu Chuan's words were like a thunderclap, exploding simultaneously in the hearts of Artoria and Rin Tohsaka!

Destroy...a planet?!

Artoria stared in disbelief at the holy sword in her hand, then at the mysterious Master before her who seemed to know everything. For the first time, her once calm and unwavering heart, belonging to the "King," was stirred by a monstrous storm!

"Let's go."

Gu Chuan didn't give them time to be shocked. He turned around and walked straight towards the deepest part of the underground cavern—the core of the "Greater Grail."

"Before you can realize your wish, I need to show you something first."

The three of them passed through a long, dark tunnel and arrived at the core area of ​​the Greater Grail.

“Sab,” Gu Chuan said, looking into Artoria’s expectant and determined emerald green eyes, shattering all her illusions with a calm tone that was almost a statement of fact.

"The wish you desire cannot be fulfilled by the Holy Grail as it is now."

“…What?” Artoria’s body trembled violently.

Gu Chuan offered no explanation, but led them into the core area illuminated by ominous, crimson flames.

When they saw the scene before them, Artoria and Rin were completely stunned.

The Holy Grail, which should have been a pure collection of magical energy, was now completely contaminated by a viscous, writhing mass of "black mud" filled with all the sins and curses of the world!

That was pure, undisguised, and utterly wicked, capable of distorting all beautiful wishes... Evil!
