"That's right. The reason the Holy Grail can grant wishes is that it relies on the magic power accumulated over many years. However, to accomplish this, the Holy Grail must actually appear in the real world. To do this, a process must be completed to make the Holy Grail willing to appear here, which means gathering the conditions to open the passage.
“Originally, there were seven Servants, and only one could be killed at the end. Six would have stabilized the passage and opened the way to the source. However, you all obviously gathered together, and the Holy Grail could not gather the required number of Servants, so it had to pull us out.
"Tell me, is this the truth?"
Robin Hood gave a simple answer, and the corners of his mouth curled up slightly. "Servants never truly die. After death, they go to the Throne of Heroes. There's no loss in itself. At least for me, even if I fail this time, it doesn't matter.
"If I win, I can get a free wish. How great is that?"
Toosaka Rin sighed and asked, "I understand what you mean. What you mean is that it doesn't matter whose Servant dies between us. Anyway, the Holy Grail just needs to gather enough Servants to stabilize the passage, right?"
"Yes, that's what I mean. It doesn't matter who dies, but in order to live and fulfill my wish, it's always okay to eliminate the opponent first."
Robin Hood spread his hands and shook his head. "What a shame! I never expected you to be so powerful. You're just ordinary humans, yet you can actually perform such magic. Our Master is truly... overconfident despite not having a good grasp of intelligence."
Seeing Robin Hood actually say this about his Master, Kotomine Kirei, Tōsaka Rin uttered a "Ha!" and then said, "In other words, if we eliminate you now, it will also meet the expectations of the Holy Grail."
"What a great thing! This way you won't have to fight among yourselves later, right?" Robin Hood said as if he really didn't care about his own death.
"Girl, I came to this world to get some fresh air. After all, it's too boring to be on the Throne of Heroes. Now I've almost had enough of it. Even if I die, I don't have too many thoughts." Robin Hood said this, and the smile on his face became even more intense: "So if you want to fight, then we can continue to fight!"
Toosaka Rin was about to say something when she heard Morpheus' voice enter her mind.
"Just fight directly, I'm watching over here, Illya!"
"Okay!" Toosaka Rin nodded immediately. She was originally worried that if they started fighting directly here, it would affect Illya's health as the receiver. Now that Morpheus was so confident, it was obvious that he had a way to deal with it. She breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile: "In this case, let's end this battle here!"
Matou Sakura glanced at Tosaka Rin and saw her nod slightly. She knew that there must be a reply from Morpheus, so she also laughed: "Let's do it, there's no need to keep them anymore!"
"Hey hey hey?! Didn't you just stop?! Why are you fighting again?!" Astolfo shouted, and hurriedly summoned the Hippocampus again, wanting to ride it, but he didn't expect that the woman in front of him also summoned a horse, a horse with wings!
Obviously, the opponent, being of the same cavalry class as himself, also has a very powerful fantasy mount!
As a result, the air battle in which they originally had a slight advantage was instantly tied, and even the opponent's Pegasus clearly showed stronger performance!
On the other side, Artoria no longer held back and attacked directly at her strongest state. Her attack was extremely swift, like thunder. Poor Robin Hood, as a real archer, although he had a little understanding of close combat, he was really not as good as Artoria.
With Altria's high-speed fighting at this time, he even found it difficult to increase the distance and was dragged into the hell of close combat by the opponent.
In just a few seconds, he was hit in the upper body again. This time the injury was so severe that it was difficult to recover quickly. At the same time, beams of light flashed and enveloped the two of them.
"Huh?!" Emiya Shirou was shocked by this scene, while Tōsaka Rin's face darkened. "It was a forced summoning by the Command Seal. It seems he discovered the problem here and directly relied on the Command Seal to rescue the people!"
"Then what should we do? Go find him? I mean, go find the priest at the church we went to last time?" Emiya Shirou asked. As a result, Toosaka Rin and Matou Sakura looked at each other, and Toosaka Rin shook her head and said, "No, let's go back first and discuss what to do!"
"Okay, let's go back first!" Shirou Emiya nodded immediately, agreeing very much with this suggestion. It would be nice to go home and see what his home has become.
……
Fast forward a bit in time, before Morpheus and Toosaka Rin had their conversation.
How could a few servants possibly bear the provocation of Morpheus alone?
Almost at the moment when Morpheus blocked a few guys, Qingji had already waved the fan in her hand. As the fan was waved, violent flames rose from the ground and swept towards Morpheus!
The flames were extremely powerful, carrying with them the scorching hot gases that they had roasted, and were going to burn everything caught in them to ashes!
At the same time, Giles, the swordsman, also took action. He followed the flames closely, keeping a certain distance, holding the sword tightly in his hand, ready to attack at any time when Morpheus dealt with the flames.
The spearman Diarmait also jumped up, the spear in his hand flashing with the light of magic-breaking. He had already aimed at his target, and then, with a sudden throw, the magic-breaking spear turned into a meteor. It was obviously launched after the flame, but it pierced Morpheus at a faster speed and earlier than the flame!
As for the assassin Hassan, after escaping from Morpheus' control, he also hid in the darkness, while waiting for an opportunity, intending to launch a fatal attack at the most critical moment!
It can be said that their cooperation is excellent!
With the interference of flames, the chances of the Demon-Breaking Spear hitting the target are greatly increased, and because it is the last to be detected, it is difficult to be detected at the first time, so it can better complete its task of destroying the demon!
Once the opponent's protection is broken, without magical protection, including protection such as Noble Phantasm Armor, the opponent will be wrapped in Qingji's flames and fall into an abnormal state. At this time, Giles following closely behind can also launch a melee attack, dragging the opponent into melee combat, and unable to worry about other things.
In this situation, Hassan, who was hiding in the dark, could just launch a sneak attack and deliver a fatal blow to send this guy to hell.
What a perfect plan!
Moreover, they can complete this kind of coordination in an instant, thanks to the fact that they all have relatively rich combat experience and do not hold each other back.
Originally, it should be like this.
But obviously, things did not develop as they expected.
Facing the incoming attack, Morpheus simply raised his hand calmly, and then with a wave of his hand, he saw the magic power that almost turned into substance surge, directly suppressing the flames.
At the same time, facing the Demon-Breaking Spear, Morpheus stretched out his free right hand, and with extremely precise angle and timing, he actually grasped the long shaft of the spear directly from the side, holding it tightly, without even taking a step back, and directly held the spear in his own hand!
Immediately afterwards, Morpheus swung his spear, pointed the tip at the attacking Giles, and stabbed the magic-destroying spear out at a speed faster than throwing the spear, hitting Giles' body!
Giles felt that his armor was like tofu in front of the gun, or rather, with the attack of the gun, the armor on his body instantly disappeared and disintegrated, and then his flesh was pierced!
He didn't even have time to react before he had to endure the severe pain and stab Morpheus with his sword, hoping that this self-sacrificing attack would make the other party give up the idea of continuing to attack him.
But Morpheus ignored the attack. Instead, he rushed forward, grabbed Giles' arm, and threw him out!
Giles' sword hit Morpheus, and he found that he seemed to have hit a solid wall, unable to pierce the opponent's clothes at all!
It's just clothes made of cloth, but it's stronger than armor!
Giles was thrown on Diarmait all of a sudden. Diarmait had just landed on the ground and had to hold Giles. Otherwise, this guy would have fallen directly to the ground and would have been more seriously injured.
In just a short while, Morpheus made Diarmait and Giles temporarily lose their fighting power. Almost at the same time, Morpheus rushed to the front of the Berserker Qingji!
He suddenly grabbed Qingji's arm as she was trying to restore the fan. Her slender arm made it hard to imagine that this woman was a berserker.
Morpheus pulled the opponent's arm and pulled Qingji forward. Then, with a throw, Morpheus threw the whole person into the yard!
In the center of the yard, there is a magic circle, which is used to dispel evil spirits!
The moment she was thrown into the magic circle, Qingji found that she could not move at all. There was an extremely powerful force around her that locked her up!
"What did you do?!" she shouted hurriedly, but Morpheus just smiled and said, "I just sent you home for free, no need to thank me."
As he spoke, he reached into the shadows with both hands, then squeezed them hard, as if he had grabbed something, and threw it in suddenly. Hassan was dragged out of the shadows by Morpheus and fell towards the magic circle!
After throwing these two people away, Morpheus looked at Diarmait and Giles and walked forward step by step: "Now it's your turn!"
Chapter 103 The Way Home
PS: One more chapter will be updated.
At this time, Hassan the Hundred Faces who was inside the magic circle was the first to calm down. He immediately began to try to contact Kotomine Kirei, wanting to see if he could escape from here by using the Command Seals. However, after trying twice, he found that he could not contact Kotomine Kirei at all. The connection of the Command Seals was clearly still there, but he just couldn't contact the person!
"What's going on? What kind of magic is this?" Qingji had recovered from her initial shock. She felt around carefully and finally found out the boundary of the cage. It was not big, but not small either, about half the size of the yard.
After trying to break the cage but failing, Qingji gave up struggling and instead looked at the battle outside.
Since the gate was open, part of the battle could still be seen.
Giles was injured and his armor was removed by the Demon-Breaking Spear, which greatly reduced his combat effectiveness. So Diarmait stood in front as the vanguard.
He tightly grasped the Demon-Breaking Lance and the Cursed Lance, staring at Morpheus intently. Although the other party did not attack, Diarmait felt the pressure as he followed the other party's footsteps!
At the same time, there is excitement!
"You are very powerful! I never thought I would meet such a powerful person in this Holy Grail War. I have to say that I was right to respond to the call of the Holy Grail and appear here!"
Morpheus smiled and asked, "By the way, what is your wish? May I know?"
Just as Diarmait was about to answer, he felt a flash before his eyes, and Morpheus' figure disappeared, followed by a cry of surprise from beside him.
Giles' figure flew in the air in a parabolic trajectory and landed in the magic circle in the courtyard.
At this time, Diarmait was the only one not in the magic circle.
Glancing at Morpheus who suddenly appeared behind him, Diarmait took a deep breath and said, "My wish is not worth mentioning. Let's just fight!"
Morpheus shook his head. "Just in case, let me ask you, do you still remember the Fourth War?"
Diarmait's expression changed, and he whispered, "What are you talking about?"
Morpheus saw the change in the other person's expression and knew he had guessed correctly. He smiled and said, "You deliberately brought your memories with you, right? What did your original body mean? You wanted to preserve the memories of the Four Wars. Does that mean your wish is actually related to them?"
Diarmait's expression became even uglier. He remained silent, then finally sighed, "How much do you know?"
"I think you know quite a lot, so your wish is actually related to that woman?"
"That was my mistake. I shouldn't have been there. It was like a curse. If possible, I hope they can be resurrected and live in this world as normal people."
During the Fourth Holy Grail War, Diarmait was summoned as a Lancer by the Clock Tower's magician Kenneth El-Melloi Archibald.
This man is a smart guy with his own plans. In order to confuse his opponents and perform better, he lets his wife act as a magic supplier to Diarmait.
Originally, there was nothing wrong with all this, but perhaps because of his inferiority complex, he always suspected that his wife had some relationship with Diarmait, which led to the subsequent deterioration of the relationship. However, he loved his wife deeply, which led to the final tragedy.
That opponent, that guy named Emiya Kiritsugu, is a completely shameless man who can use all relationships to create advantages!
"Resurrection of the dead?" Morpheus thought for a moment and smiled, "But Sola Nazelai Sophia Li, um, did I say the name correctly? This woman does have a crush on you. It's undeniable. Even if they were resurrected, I don't think they can continue to stay together."
This answer made Diarmait sigh. He knew this, but still found it hard to accept.
"Well, since you can't beat me anyway, let's make a deal." Morpheus suddenly said, which aroused Diarmait's interest: "What deal?"
"Go in on your own. I won't force you. As long as you go in on your own, I will find a way to get some of the relics of these two people. Then, I can use the relics as a medium to see where their souls are now. If they haven't been reincarnated yet, I can find a way to bring these two people back to reality."
After Morpheus said these words, he looked at the other person. These words were as simple as eating and drinking water.
But Diarmuid opened his mouth wide and couldn't help asking, "Really?!"
"I can't guarantee 100% success. In fact, even if they are resurrected, their bodies might be similar to puppets. But they can still eat and so on. No problem. This world always works hard on some inexplicably unnecessary aspects of puppets, but fails in some very necessary aspects. But if they are combined with human souls, all problems can be solved at once."
While answering, Morpheus also did not forget to complain about the Einzbern family's puppet technology.
"Wait a minute, the magic of resurrection, no, this is already magic!" Diarmait asked. He himself was a hero of the Age of Gods. Even in the Age of Gods, resurrection was very difficult!
As a result, he saw the other party took out a dagger and threw it to him.
"I've given you permission, take a look for yourself."
Diarmuid was confused. He took it and looked at it, his eyes widening. "Ares's divine weapon?!"
The level of this treasure is much higher than the Demon-Breaking Spear given to him by his adoptive father. It is a treasure of the highest level!
"And this." Morpheus took out another bow and threw it to the other party. After taking the bow, Diarmait was shocked again.
"Apollo's divine weapon?!"
"In fact, there are quite a few more, so I won't bring them out one by one. Anyway, I have my own trump cards here. What I use is magic, not conjuring. I am also quite good at resurrection magic. You can rest assured. The only thing that will limit resurrection is the soul. If the soul is gone, then there is nothing I can do.
"Also, if the other person has truly been reincarnated, then in order not to affect their current life, I will not choose to restore their memories of their past life. I think you can understand this."
Having said that, Diarmait knew this was his only chance. He nodded and said, "I understand!"
There is no choice. If you originally wanted to fight with all your strength, the worst that could happen is that you will die.
It's different now. Now it's a deal. As long as there is a slight possibility, he is willing to take the risk. If he can resurrect this couple who makes him feel helpless, then it doesn't matter even if he dies now.
So, he waved his hand and said, "Okay, then I'll go over and leave everything to you."
"Hey, wait, lend me the Magic Breaker Spear first, let me see if I can break my magic!"
"You..." Diarmait wanted to say something, but finally sent out his weapon. As a result, Morpheus pointed the tip of the gun at his body. There was an obvious fluctuation of magic power, but he stopped halfway.
Diarmait, who had been calm, opened his mouth wide. The Demon-Breaking Spear was ineffective!
"It's not really ineffective, more like a crushing defeat. If a true god wields this weapon, my defenses should be penetrated..." Morpheus touched his chin and returned the weapon. "But it's not a big problem. I can still improve my own defense level. This kind of weapon is essentially only truly advantageous when the gap between the two is not too big."
Diarmait's mouth twitched, and he could only shake his head and sigh, "The Holy Grail actually summoned us to die, right?"
"Oh, it's possible. After all, the Holy Grail only cares about quantity, not quality. As long as the quantity is sufficient, it will manifest and achieve its goal."
"So, we are going to become the nourishment of the Holy Grail..."
"No, I'm just sending you home, directly back to the Thrones of Heroes!" Morpheus smiled, watched Diarmait walk in, and then chanted the spell of expulsion.
Chapter 104: Expulsion
Although Qingji was trapped in the magic circle, she was not nervous. Instead, she watched the battle outside carefully.
The battle outside was completely one-sided. In just a short while, everyone except Diarmait was thrown in, making the magic circle quite lively.
"Let me out now! I want to follow Joan of Arc!"
Giles shouted and kept attacking the edge of the magic circle with his weapon, but his attacks were useless. Even though he seemed extremely fanatical at this moment, this fanaticism could not have any effect in the face of absolute power.
Not far away, a girl who looked only eleven or twelve years old was staring at this place. She was even sitting on the steps, her feet swinging back and forth, looking obviously very relaxed.
According to the information obtained from Kotomine Kirei, this little girl is a member of the Einzbern family.
