Xingyue, is Xiaokai also considered Kai?

Initially, Morai intended to revive the Forest King and the Black Goat Mother, whom she worshipped, within Fujimaru Ritsuka's body, essentially as a vessel. However, after obtaining the true Holy Grail from the Lion King, she discovered during the re-ceremony that the 'god' manifested within Fujimaru Ritsuka, while possessing the appearance of the Black Goat Mother, was fundamentally different in nature.

As a result, the time it took for the successful manifestation was significantly delayed.

As for the others, such as Lionheart and the Knights of the Round Table, things went smoothly and were settled in a short time. However, Morley did not have the authority to command them. Subsequently, without Morley's knowledge, Lionheart and several Knights of the Round Table went to the mountain village under the will of 'God'.

However, even if he knew, Morai probably wouldn't care at all.

She was now curious about when the Lion King would finally be 'corrupted,' since even the Holy Lance shouldn't be able to withstand it; it should only last for a month at most before reversing. The fact that this Lion King had lasted for several months was truly rare, and it made her very eager to see what would happen.

However, when Molai decided to check on the Lion King's condition again one day, he discovered that the Lion King had somehow woken up.

"No matter what you say, it's useless."

Morley smiled faintly, “This place has already been taken over by the gods. The limitations of this singularity cannot allow the pillars of light from other places to gather. Moreover, even if they did gather, humanity would face its end. The surface was originally created for humanity as the primates, and your duty is not to go that far.”

"Ah."

The Lion King nodded, as if to say, "Go on, you understand." This puzzled Morai, so he stopped the moment his fingertips touched the front of his glasses.

I hope there won't be any problems with this Lion King who has inexplicably awakened.

Molai shook his head slightly, casting aside his slight unease, and adjusted his glasses.

"I must say, it truly is the most suitable medium, just as you said."

The Lion King, awakened by an unknown power, seemed bored as he propped his cheek up with his hand, a slight smile playing on his lips, his yellow-green eyes shining as if they had turned gold.

Although the temple was surrounded by murky, viscous green liquid, and she herself was sitting in a recently broken egg, she gave the impression of sitting languidly and melancholically on a magnificent throne, looking down on everything with equanimity.

"But since it is your vessel, it should be difficult to adapt to you, and it still has the strength to resist you... If it is countered instead, then my trip will have been worthwhile."

Looking at the Lion King at this moment, Morley's tone became slightly more serious for some reason, and he raised the question that had been surfacing in his mind.

"No, what exactly are you now—"

"Lion King Artoria, Goddess Rungomminiad, a king who wanders the world with the Holy Lance, these titles could all be me. This Holy Lance is quite interesting. A pillar of light? It certainly has that feeling. The indestructible design has become so pitiful. It's really... But it's understandable that the so-called Buddha and the so-called India have this anchor."

To Morley, it sounded like the world itself was answering.

"Compressing the so-called Pillars of Creation? Forget it, it's beyond the capacity of this place."

Then, the Lion King raised the corners of his mouth again.

"Of course, you may also call me the one who possesses the true Holy Grail, Jacques de Morai."

Although Morai had said the words "the one who possesses the true Holy Grail" to the Lion King before, hearing it uttered by the Lion King, who possessed an unusual quality, instilled in Morai an indescribable sense of... fear.

"Are you even listening to what I'm saying?"

"Of course I am... huh?"

Morley noticed that the Lion King had picked up the real Holy Grail, which shouldn't be there, and touched it, his fingers sliding unnaturally.

The real Holy Grail should be in the temple, right? But how could this be? Does the Lion King have some hidden trick up his sleeve that I don't know about?

"Actually, now that I'm manifesting myself with this mindset and body, I understand his feelings back then. For the primates of this planet, it was undoubtedly a tremendous achievement, but at the same time, it had a fatal oversight from my perspective. Although it was a guarantee for the future, whose guarantee was it?"

She seemed to be expressing agreement with someone who wasn't present, praising his ideas, her eyes and voice filled with hope.

"The future I envision is not the same as the future that humanity envisions. It is only natural that humanity has expanded the land, built cities, crossed oceans, and torn the sky apart, because to change the future, great power and great talent are essential. Although it is unlikely that we can reach my level, I still hold out hope."

"'Even if this world cannot see the future now, there must be brilliant people shining in order to survive. We must believe that their brilliance can save this world shrouded in the end times. No one has the right to destroy a world where there are still people shining'... Hehe."

She chuckled softly.

She probably couldn't say these words to his face, and would only say them when he wasn't around.

"In the end, just as he said and did, changing the future for the better requires something more... just a little bit, something ordinary that can be found everywhere."

Chapter 460 Godhood Summons Sun Wukong.

"This is all that we and our father saw before Jerusalem 'swallowed' us."

In the mountain village, Mordred sat on the ground and told the group in front of him, led by Novia, about how they were 'summoned to participate in a civil war where they killed each other, and then tricked into Jerusalem by the conman captain, which led to their defeat'.

"You too."

After hearing the story, Charlemagne couldn't help but let a subtle smile appear at the corners of his mouth. "Actually, Richard and I were pretty much dragged into this by Morley. Sigh, it's true, he was such a good knight, yet he was ruined by the French King and Pope Clement V at the time. Sigh..."

Of course, Charlemagne also understood that King Philip IV of France had not only done this, but had also united with the three noble families of the Clock Tower to cause the 'Avignon Prison' of the Church, which involved transferring the Pope to French territory and placing him under their jurisdiction for 69 years.

This made Charlemagne feel rather complicated. Although the Capetian dynasty could be considered his ancestor, it couldn't really be considered a branch of the dynasty. Therefore, it was understandable that people would act against his ideas in different eras, since he supported the Church and El-Melloi during his lifetime.

Thinking about it from this perspective, Charlemagne felt it was alright; at least his descendants seemed to be quite well-behaved.

"really."

Novia nodded, as if answering Charlemagne's inner thoughts.

"However, the burning of humanity did happen, so perhaps in other worlds your descendants, Charlemagne, did something 'horrific'."

"……what?"

"To give you an example, like Gawain, the Sun Knight who guarded the gates of Jerusalem, when he was at his strongest as a Servant, his Master was one of your descendants in some world."

In the Fe world, where magicians' mischief led to the depletion of the Great Source, indirectly causing the use of faint magic, which relies on magic, to become ineffective, and Earth's natural resources to also become ineffective, the "Western European Pyramids" established by Charlemagne's descendants successfully rose to power, becoming a political force that almost controlled that Earth world. At the same time, this organization also caused the Magic Association to be basically wiped out, leaving the remaining magicians and rebels with no choice but to go to the Middle East to establish the "Liberation Organization".

The next head of the Western European Consortium, the strongest Master in the Fe series, and the vessel for the ideal king designed by the savior who governs the world on the surface. Mushroom's impression is Leonardo Bistariohavi, the 'perfect Artoria'.

With the support of Leo's massive magical energy supply and enhancement techniques, the power of his Noble Phantasm, the Sword of Victory, can be further enhanced. After its true name is released, its attack is comparable to, or even surpasses, the Awakener's "Seven Armaments of the Heavenly King". Its decisive technique, "The Brilliant City of Holy Swords", can create a wall of flames surrounding the two duelists, which can block interference from the outside world. Only the Holy Sword can destroy it, and it trapped BB, who possessed the Crown of Ten, for three minutes.

In Fele, Gawain's basic attack is even equivalent to a Noble Phantasm, and he swings his sword like a small curry stick, etc.

That being said, Leo's mentality was really bad. Fe was beaten up by Zabi but still insisted that he didn't use his full strength. Ccc was feeding kills to Bb. Fele lost to Nero because of his trash talk... But despite this, the bond between the two is still very good.

It can only be said that setting is setting, and performance is performance; the two cannot be equated.

"Brother-in-law, you've seen another world again, haven't you..."

Charlemagne waved his hand. "But if that's the case, then wouldn't I be able to get that Knight Gawain to do nothing just by relying on this relationship?"

"The Gawain Knight who has appeared now should not have the memories of the Master who is the descendant of Charlemagne that Lord Novia mentioned, right?"

Percival shook his head. "At least I've never heard him, or Gareth, who often talks to him, say that."

Generally speaking, Servants who reappear in the world do not have memories of their previous appearance; they are always a completely new character. However, the Servants from Chaldea are an exception.

"What a pity, otherwise I would have dealt with this Sun Knight when I became his Master and he could have shown his strongest form."

Charlemagne touched the hair on his forehead and flicked it.

"By the way, Mordred, Percival, have you seen a monk named Xuanzang?"

The person Novia was asking about was naturally Xuanzang, who should have appeared in the Sixth Singularity. Normally, she should have gone to Camelot, but now it seems that as long as she enters Jerusalem, she will basically be caused by the evil god on Morai. According to Xuanzang's personality, he will most likely call on the power of the Awakened One at a critical moment, and the Awakened One will not ignore this disciple, so he should be fine.

The main reason Novia asked Mordred and Percival was that she somewhat missed her good disciple Siddhartha. According to the situation, Siddhartha was supposed to be expounding the scriptures when Novia was undergoing his tribulation as Maitreya, which was supposed to be his "backup plan," but none of the enlightened beings even appeared…

Alright, what a good apprentice. You're so interested in my 'love drama,' aren't you? All you do is send telepathic messages to Ilya and pull some tricks, huh? Siddhartha, you'd better prepare your true form when you're summoned by Tevis in the Fe world. I'm planning to use Maitreya's full power as a gift for our reunion after two years apart.

"We are very sorry, we have never seen or heard of this name."

"What is a monk? A Buddhist monk? I've never seen one before."

Mordred and Percival both shook their heads, and then Kama, who was standing to the side, seemed to have noticed something and narrowed his eyes slightly.

"Gavia, is this monk Xuanzang you mentioned the same one as Jin Chanzi from before?"

When Siddhartha established Buddhism, the gods of India went into seclusion due to the turmoil caused by the Trinity. Most of those who walked the world were ascetics and immortals who came to resist the emerging Buddhism. As one of the mistresses of the Himalayas, Kama, like the other two, often secretly went to the Buddhist community to see Novia.

Among the people in that Buddhist community, besides Siddhartha, Kavia's disciple, the ones Kama remembered most vividly were the little girl with yellow eyebrows who was Kavia's doorman, and Jin Chanzi, who always wanted to come in and discuss Buddhist teachings with Kavia. Kama didn't like Jin Chanzi very much because her lively and cheerful personality reminded her of herself during the Mingguang period, which reminded her of her foolishly calling Mosini and Durga "Mama" and "Mother" in the past...

One night in particular, when Gavia made some rather outrageous demands of her, it was happened that Jin Chanzi witnessed it.

This made Kama's impression of Jin Chanzi even worse.

“That’s right, it’s the same Jin Chan you’ve met, the one who’s a bit introverted.”

"Ha ha……"

Upon hearing this, Kama's forehead creased with black lines.

Introverted? This "introverted" probably doesn't mean the one who's all over Gavia. If you change even one word in the latter part of "introverted," I think that guy would just nod hesitantly in agreement, given his personality.

"But if you didn't see him, he must be somewhere else. After all, Xuanzang was Siddhartha's help in stopping the burning of humanity."

As Novia spoke, he took two steps, and as he walked, the wind blew, creating waves of air shaped like ocean waves centered on the dry, yellow valley.

"I think we're destined to meet, and I should be able to find her here."

After all, for an enlightened being, burning human reason is not as good as watching flowers in the waves; sending a foolish disciple like Xuanzang as a token gesture is enough.

Then, the enormous trunk of the Bodhi tree, seemingly about to encompass everything, appeared from the horizon.

However, the wind picked up again.

The vast air waves dissipated, and the misty mountain valleys returned.

A leaf falls.

Novia blinked as she landed in the nearby mountain village.

"Since you've been here for so long, why didn't you come to see me, Xuanzang?"

At the same time, on the other side of the mountain in the village, Novia's whisper made Xuanzang, who had been secretly watching for a long time, freeze in shock.

A hint of wavering appeared in his distant eyes.

Because of the distance, Xuanzang could not see Novia's expression, but could vaguely see the corners of his mouth, as if a smile was appearing.

"This……"

What to do? Urgent! The monk Dipankara and Mara are messing around together! Master, what should I do, Xuanzang? Could it be that the monk Dipankara is using a physical body to save the demon king? If so, why did he save him once before, and now, after so many years, is he trying again? Third time's the charm! This wretched demon…

Teacher, where are you? Why haven't you replied to me yet? You promised to back me up if I came this time!

Xuanzang vaguely remembered that when the threat of burning down the human realm occurred, his teacher Shakyamuni was leisurely lying on his side under the Bodhi tree, slowly pointing to a leaf: "This time, Xuanzang, you shall go. It is suitable for you."

And so, she appeared in this sixth singularity. Initially, she was in a very bad mood because none of her disciples had come with her, but she quickly sensed Wukong's presence and followed it. What she found there was astonishing—

What kind of holy city is this? It's a den of demons!

However, Xuanzang raised her gaze.

So she stood up in front of the holy city disguised as the City of Chalk. Even though the few disciples she could still keep by her side were gone, facing the city that revealed an extremely large evil magic power, Xuanzang herself exerted all her strength and walked steadily towards the place, as if pulling a rock out of the ground.

"May Buddha bless you, the Six Ding and Six Jia, the Five Directions Jiedi, the Four Duty Officers, and the Guardians of the Dharma."

As a master, how can you ignore your apprentice when he is in trouble?

"Let me show you what Buddha's blessing is all about! Hey! Wukong, your master is coming to your rescue—"

"No, Master. Coming here would be like walking into a trap. With me here, the little guy can still use the Golden Cudgel to deal with this foreign god for a while. In short, you'd better not come in. If you are also modified, it will be even more troublesome."

A voice echoed in Xuanzang's mind; it was undoubtedly the voice of Wukong that she could sense.

"Eh eh eh?"

"In short, I can only respond to you now because Master has been leaning on me for too long, but that can't last much longer either. I'm still providing assistance to this little guy. Fortunately, the Holy Lance hasn't been modified, otherwise even a similar golden cudgel wouldn't have been able to last so long..."

These words clearly didn't convey Xuanzang's meaning, but she still answered earnestly:

"So, with my current strength, I can't save you, Goku?"

"Even I can barely maintain it, let alone you, Master. Of course, if you can summon the Buddha, that would be a different story."

Just then, Xuanzang, noticing the gates of Jerusalem slowly opening, quickly hid to the side. She then saw several followers and a group of knights, led by a figure with a black lion's head, marching off in another direction. Since her own disciple had urged her to leave, she could only secretly follow behind the group, where she discovered the monk Dipankara and the Sixth Heaven Demon King, Moro—

The main problem is that the two of them are stuck together? Namo San, how impure this is...

However, before Xuanzang could figure out how to go out and deal with the monks Dipankara and Mara, he was discovered by Novia first.

……

"I am Xuanzang Tripitaka! Under the guidance of the Buddha, I have appeared in this world! Uh... my class is Caster!"

Having been exposed, Xuanzang, who had no choice but to appear before the Knights of the Round Table, stared intently at Kama beside Novia. Her eyes were filled with suspicion, as if she had seen an evil spirit appear in the Buddhist holy land of Zhon. Then, she removed her monk's hat from Novia's head.

“Master, you really can save the world. Yes, you definitely can—because that's what Buddha and I said!”

Looking at the energetic young woman, Novia smiled at first, then straightened her posture.

Has Siddhartha contacted you, Xuanzang?

"Well, how should I put it..."

Xuanzang twirled his fingers sheepishly, "My master clearly said he'd be there for me, but he hasn't replied to a single message in all this time. He's probably off somewhere to slack off again..."
