They've already fought their way through the Holy Grail War, and you still call them dragons?

A flash.

The snake god saw a white flash with strange colors, which pushed away the sea water, divided the sky and the earth, split the rolling clouds in two and dispersed, and then swallowed up his own tsunami and huge waves. The sword slashed and swallowed up his own water sky. The light was obviously single, but it was extremely dazzling and gorgeous.

Although the gorgeous sword light was only a single color, how could any ordinary light compare to the sword light that could sever cause and effect? ​​She gave up resistance and admired it without hesitation, cheering for the beauty of this brief waxing moon ceremony.

The sword light that swallowed everything made the dark night food field shine again, making her feel pure and warm. The madness brought by the divinity gradually faded away, and Shuten-doji gradually recalled the past, the free and unrestrained years when the ghosts of Mount Oe were free.

As he watched the spiritual foundation that constructed his body shatter, and the vessel of the full moon that he had swallowed - the Holy Grail - fall out of it, Shuten-doji's mouth showed no regret or reluctance at all, but instead gradually formed a smile.

"Haha, I'm defeated."

"Ah, I won."

"...I never could have imagined, even in my wildest dreams, that such a brilliant and beautiful sword light, filled with such determination, would make my body and horns burn like the crater of a volcano."

"...?" Emiya thought to himself, "Something's wrong with you. You've already lost the battle, so why are you so happy?" A true joker, wouldn't he be happy even if he got humiliated?

[Wow, Senior, look, Miss Shuten-douji seems to be blushing. Her words just now were so ambiguous. Do you think she fell in love with you after being defeated by you?]

"Get aside!"

----

The Impure World Castle of the Tokyo Incident.

Earlier, the Demon Pillar Flauros, who was about to leave to reunite with his fellows he had summoned, was blocked on the road by Mash.

"This, this place... Accelerator!" She announced nervously. According to the tactical deployment, Miss Minamoto no Raikou had already gone to intercept Ashiya Doman who was fleeing the scene, and she could not let the Demon Pillar escape.

"Hmph, even though I said I wanted to recruit you, that doesn't mean I'll allow you to be so tactless."

There was obvious displeasure in Flauros' voice. It didn't know why Mashu insisted on doing so, but it was obvious that if it stayed there easily, it would be plotted against by Chaldea.

Recalling his previous experience of being accidentally burned by the black fireworks on the other side of the space rift, Floros understood a little.

Hmm...are you trying to eliminate these unexpected factors through cross-border cooperation?

too naive.

Flauros suddenly spoke up, "Observatory! Asmodeus!"

"What?" Mashu suddenly felt that something was wrong with the flow of magic in the air.

[Little Marshmallow! Watch out for sneak attacks from behind!]

A new dark black demon pillar suddenly appeared out of nowhere.

No, it's very likely that it has been lying in ambush there for a long time!

Mashu immediately turned around, hastily raised her shield, and then launched a series of terrifying magic projections, forming a wide-area explosion vortex!

Rumble, rumble, rumble——

"Ah--!" Mashu felt the powerful force coming from the front of the shield. She was almost knocked back and almost flew out.

"This is the consequence of being tactless."

Flauros's eyes also shone brightly, and magic power was concentrated and released.

Boom boom boom boom——

"what!"

Enduring the numbness in her palms, Mashu switched direction again, but it felt like she was being played, and she was pushed back even further. Even her legs and toes ached from the continuous resistance. Now, the containment had failed, and she was the one being forced to retreat.

The demon god Asmodeus said coldly, "Boring, Flauros, you could have annihilated her with that strike just now, right? Why are you still playing tricks on me now?"

"Don't panic. Her shield is very strong. It's an extraordinary treasure. It might be worth observing..."

Under Mash's unwilling gaze, Flauros's figure slowly disappeared into the distance with Asmodeus.

We must intercept the enemy! Mashu exerted all her strength and ran again, but before she could catch up, Asmodeus's scream came from not far away:

"Flauros, what are you doing? Are you crazy?"

Boom!

A huge stream of magic power emanated from Flauros and hit Asmodeus!

"This is--!" Mashu watched in surprise. Asmodeus was hit into the predetermined straight line aimed at the space crack, and Flauros followed closely.

What on earth is going on!?

She watched as the two monsters inexplicably engaged in a fierce internal conflict. Then, more demon pillars, noticing something was amiss, emerged and joined in. Flauros's eyes flashed a golden emerald green, a stark contrast to the crimson glow of the demon pillar itself.

It reminded Mashu of Abbas, who was usurped by Floros. Mr. Abbas had a pair of emerald green eyes.

Wait, is Abbas still inside the demon god's body, waiting for this critical moment to emerge and cooperate with her? This is too unbelievable, like a hybrid transformed into Deadpool regaining his sanity before death!

"Mr. Abbas?" Mashu asked tentatively.

"..."

However, the only sounds on the scene were the angry roars of other demons. The demon pillar glowing green was the only one that had stopped talking and was only fighting with Asmodeus and other demons.

Then a mighty sword light flew out from the crack, splitting the city in two in a straight line, destroying the obstacles along the way, and several demons were ruthlessly swallowed up.

Chapter 331 This is a trial!

Before the sword that transcends all things and cuts off cause and effect flies over.

"—Why did you suddenly attack us? Are you crazy, Flauros?"

After hearing Asmodeus's angry questioning and the insults coming from other places, Flauros also wanted to answer this question from his fellow Demon Pillars.

Unfortunately, it never expected that its body would have problems at the critical moment -

Damn this host, there's something wrong with the host Abbas it chose!

I originally thought he was just a mixed-race with pure and excellent bloodline, but I didn't expect that there was a big secret hidden in this person's body!

----

A moment ago.

At the scene of the burning orphanage, Abbas, who was running quickly through the sea of ​​fire, suddenly realized something.

This is the nightmare that haunts him repeatedly, his past, so this is not reality, but his inner world.

Abbas has known the suspiciousness of his past since a long time ago. This doubt has even become stronger after he entered Chaldea and learned more and more secrets and mysterious knowledge about the dragon clan.

His words had never been recorded before, and all traces of his life in his birthplace had disappeared completely. Moreover, in Chaldea, Abbas had a vague feeling that his bloodline was even unusually strong... perhaps not weaker than that of Pasi, the Group A member known as "Gattuso's secret weapon."

In addition, more mysteries followed. As a descendant of his, theoretically, his parents' bloodline should be of high rank, and they might be well-known figures, but he had never succeeded in finding out where they were... Who on earth was he?

pat.

Abbas stepped on the flaming staircase, and the scorching flames immediately licked the soles of his shoes.

Suppressing his doubts, he continued to search for the seven brothers, or perhaps even the shadow of the Demon Pillar. Having decided to face everything head-on, Abbas no longer wanted to be a coward!

Abbas regarded this place as a test.

He saw this as a test to overcome his past. He was determined to accept it calmly. Only after overcoming the childish past could a person grow.

"Isn't it the same with you? Right, my brothers—"

Abbas faced the scorching flames and took off his Chaldean uniform that made combat difficult.

Laughter could be heard from the other side of the sea of ​​fire not far away. Seven swaying black shadows suddenly advanced at an inhuman speed from a distant place. Abbas opened his eyes wide and saw their appearance clearly.

Their eyes are cold golden vertical pupils, their faces are covered with scales, flames lick their thick limbs and sharp claws without any damage, and their lower bodies are slender snake-like. These are seven snake-shaped Deadpools!

He was surprised. The seven brothers in his memory were nothing like them. But it didn't matter. To overcome the past, he would kill his enemies without hesitation. Even if they were not human, he would still defeat them!

Abbas recited the dragon script and rushed forward without hesitation.

The flash of lightning suddenly exploded, and violent electric current instantly flowed through his whole body. His originally red-gold pupils turned almost platinum under the lightning.

The Word Spirit Indra!

This was the ability he had been hiding all along. At this moment, he looked like a weakened version of Minamoto no Raikou. The surrounding space was highly ionized by the jumping thunder. The flames retreated and flowed back as if being manipulated, forming a vortex that rushed towards the seven Deadpools and danced wildly!

"drink--!"

The high-powered thunder gathered together and slowly condensed into a brilliant and shining sword in front of Abbas. He controlled the sword of lightning with his consciousness, and the sword body immediately responded, shot out like lightning, and pierced one of the Deadpools!

If Emiya saw this scene, he would definitely feel familiar, because the appearance of the Sword of Glory that Abbas transformed using the Word Spirit was exactly the same as the one that Odin used at the beginning!

“——!” Seeing their fellows being knocked down instantly, the remaining Deadpools let out strange cries and rushed to break through the sea of ​​fire, regardless of being burned and charred, in order to besiege Abbas alone.

Facing the burnt smell, Abbas noticed that these deadpools were not afraid of fire, but their moisture had not yet been completely evaporated.

Sizzle! Dense lightning expanded into a powerful electric field, blazing fiercely around Abbas.

The Deadpools' attacks were indeed extremely fast, with tricky angles and different directions, making it difficult for Abbas to take care of both ends. However, the dense arrangement of strong lightning seemed to form an invisible force field that hindered the Deadpools' advance. The falling lightning even caused them to be obviously paralyzed!

Boom! Abbas seized the brief moment when the Deadpools were blocked and controlled the Sword of Glory to drop and sweep across!

This sword of words named after the main Hindu god instantly burst into an intense brilliance, and a mighty and dazzling stream of lightning rushed towards Deadpool's physical body, cutting the flesh sharply and causing blood to spurt!

As one side gained strength while the other lost, the situation became clear, and Abbas only took a little effort to get rid of these scary-looking guys.

“…”Is that all?

Abbas confirmed that the vitality of these deadpools had been irreversibly lost and that there was no one around, which surprised him a little.

He thought for a while, then walked down the stairs and into a room surrounded by flames.

Abbas remembered that this was the place the dean had instructed him to hide the gold bars. If his seven brothers had gone from being human murderers to monsters, would the place they were searching for their treasure have changed?

He opened the door nervously, but could not see any flames or heat.

The burnt orphanage room disappeared, the choking smoke and burnt smell were gone, and what suddenly appeared before his eyes was a clean white corridor with walls made of transparent tempered glass on both sides, which provided access to the laboratory equipment inside.

Abbas was slightly surprised. The advanced equipment there was in no way inferior to that of Chaldea, and even surpassed it.

"How's the embryo development going? Are there any abnormal reactions?"

"It's still the same. The situation is not optimistic. The elders hope to use this to train the young master to become the king of the new era. It's a long and arduous journey."

"Don't say such discouraging things. It'll only end badly for us... Didn't they say a new batch of test subjects arrived? Let's try again. The elders are concerned too."

"Walk."

When Abbas heard the voices, he hurriedly tried to hide, but when he saw two researchers in white coats coming from the corner, they ignored Abbas. Even when their clothes were about to rub against each other, the researchers walked straight past him.

It was as if Abbas did not exist or was just a piece of air.

"...Huh?" Abbas turned around to look. They couldn't see or touch him? This wasn't a normal inner world, but just a memory?

He walked forward with curiosity and followed the researcher closely.

One corridor after another passed by his eyes. Abbas walked deeper and deeper. The light around him seemed to gradually dim, foreshadowing some ominous atmosphere.

Abbas was unaware that he had been completely attracted by some secret or truth that might be hidden here.

Why did the place where the dean who adopted him hid his treasure lead to this memory? Could it be that this place has a past related to his life?

Drop, drop——

After going through several verification procedures, the researcher in front walked into the metal sliding door, and Abbas, who followed behind, soon witnessed the horrific scene inside.

Many babies were displayed in containers like goods. These were obviously what the researchers called "experimental subjects."

"!" Although Abbas knew that this was a memory he could not interfere with, he couldn't help but feel angry.

The researcher reached out and took a baby. Abbas instinctively tried to snatch it away, but his arms passed through it again. Damn it, it still didn't work. He decided to calm down and wait for this memory to end. Then, based on the information he gained, he would investigate where in the past this inhumane experiment took place.

"Where did this come from?"

"Who knows? It seems most of them come from the Middle East. It's not peaceful there anyway, so there are plenty of test subjects. We can 'purchase' them anytime, anywhere," the researchers said in apathetic tones. "Let's see if the best bloodlines in this batch are any good first."

Abbas clenched his fists and followed the researcher to another laboratory.

There were several white-haired but vigorous old men. Abbas had never seen people with such temperament. They wore classical robes and looked like senators from the Roman era.

The old men naturally had a leadership temperament. The staff members all revolved around them, as if they were the center of the whole world. Even the two researchers who had just spoken and brought the experimental subjects reported in a low voice in front of the old men, not daring to breathe.

Abbas immediately realized that these were the elders the staff had just talked about.

"...Let's get started," the leading elder said. After exchanging glances with the surrounding elders, he added, "I believe you all understand the importance of this experiment to the family. Do I need to emphasize this again?"

"We understand, Elder!" the researcher said. "During the experiment, we must select a suitable test subject as a vessel to carry the power, while also being reasonably compatible with the young master's body to avoid rejection during the blood transfusion!"

"It's good for you to know. After all, this is the result of negotiations between our family and that person from the Medical Association. They finally agreed to let us use technology to break the taboo and cultivate biological children. This is our Gattuso's chance to make a comeback among the ancient family and rise to the top!"
