My Destiny Illustrated Book of the Moon

Chapter 640: Holy Grail of the Moon: The Last Night

A delicate and beautiful face, a small and straight nose, a thin and attractive mouth, and black and shiny double ponytails.

And when I opened my eyelids, my clear eyes seemed to be covered with mist and rain.

When the clean windowsill, the empty corridor, and the dim light came into view, Toosaka Rin looked around anxiously. The moonlight passed coldly across the girl's face, making her look as helpless as a baby whose amniotic fluid had just broken.

Looking around, a young man leaning on the railing overlooking the school playground appeared in her sight. His shiny white hair, golden vertical pupils, handsome face and clear jawline were enough to attract the attention of any opposite sex.

It was like a tired girl who had just finished a day of studying met a handsome senior in the school corridor - just by looking at him, her uneasy boat was anchored in the Portocale harbor.

"…What is my current situation?"

"Just like Alice, my opponent in the Battle of Hakuno-San, I intercepted and restored your data before the Moon Crystal threw you into the Recycle Bin and completely deleted you." Shuoyue did not look back. "To put it in simple terms, it means resurrection."

resurrection.

Shuoyue's tone was so indifferent that Lin was stunned for a long while before he found the sense of reality and surprise.

And a hint of resentment.

"Why didn't you tell me earlier that I wouldn't die? Now I have to put on that death-ready expression. It's so embarrassing."

Lin had no awareness of being resurrected. She put her hands on her hips and fiercely stepped forward to pull Shuoyue's sleeve. When the young man turned his head away helplessly, the girl could not help but curl up the corners of her mouth and smiled like a flower.

"Hey, Sakutsuki-san, you won't watch me say shameful words just for the sake of some damn bad taste, so that you can laugh at me at some point in the future, right?"

"..."

"Right?!" Lin's smile became more and more forced, and Shuoyue glanced away guiltily. Before she could get so upset that she covered her head and crouched down, she nodded.

"Of course, how could 'I' be that kind of person, huh."

"If you hadn't said that, I might have believed it." Lin twitched his lips and simply moved forward, "What have you been looking at from the beginning? Is there anything more worthy of attention than this beautiful girl...ah."

The beautiful girl with twin ponytails turned her neck clackingly, looked at Shuoyue who had an expressionless face (with a forced smile), then turned her head to look at the young man in a red robe with bright vertical pupils who was confronting Leo and Gawain on the playground.

"This...you...I..."

"He is a Servant, and I am Sakutsuki from the preliminaries. He killed you, and I saved you. He is me, and I am him. When you were killed and I resurrected you, Leo came to ask for a beating... Do you understand what I have said above? Understand?"

No! Who would understand this?

Sakutsuki's rapid-fire words hit Rin's brain, causing her to lose her ability to think for a short time. Perhaps because her silly expression was too obvious, Sakutsuki sighed, glanced at Rin with an expression that said, "My son, the whole family is very disappointed in you," and then her figure gradually faded.

I'm tired, so I'd better go back and play chess with Brother Buddha.

"Forget it. I'm not surprised by anything that happens to you." When Sakutsuki was thinking about the solution to the half-game, Rin finally sighed in the abstraction of recognizing the reality, "But, since Leo is against you, it means that the Moon Holy Grail War is already the final battle."

"The final battle?" Shuoyue chewed on this unexpected word and smiled slightly.

"I'm sorry, this can't be called the final battle—"

"After all, I raised Hakuno." On the playground, Sakutsuki Archer said without giving any face, "Rather than having a 'final battle' with a boring man of the same sex who is almost as handsome as me, I might as well look forward to the surprise of a sweet and soft beautiful female student."

"Oh, what a pity." Leo did not regard such words as a provocation. He had the confidence to crush such arrogance. "I have been preparing for so long, and even sacrificed my brother. The power I have gained at such a price, of course I can defeat you, and by the way, get rid of Hakuno at the same time."

"..." Shuoyue did not take Leo's declaration seriously, but when the boy mentioned his brother and Julius' sacrifice, the indifferent expression in his expression of nostalgia made him put away the smile on his face.

"Julius died because of you."

"Of course I know." Leo tilted his head, puzzled by Shuo Yue's repetition. Apart from self-confidence and radiance, this might be one of the few small emotions Leo could express.

But among these emotions that survive under the scorching sun, there is no sadness or longing.

There was only calmness, a calmness that remained indifferent after accepting the fact of Julius' death.

"Indeed, you are an ideal king saint." Shuoyue said expressionlessly, "But you are unmoved by your brother's death. There is already a huge gap between you and the human race."

"Really..." The young man was slightly stunned. "So, I did have a similar realization. It seems that I am not perfect enough as a king. Maybe when I face Hakuno in the end, I can learn something from her."

"You don't have to wait until then. You can't wait until then." Shuoyue raised his palm, "I can tell you what you are missing right now--"

"Please stop here, Leo, that's enough. I don't think it's necessary to talk to your opponent before the final battle."

As the sunlight covered half of the playground, a knight like a prince charming emerged from the fantasy.

"I told you not to reveal yourself, Gawain." "I'm very sorry, but Leo, I don't think you are missing anything." Gawain used his tall stature to block the Master, staring at Shuoyue with unfriendly eyes, "I will protect you with the holy sword and clear all obstacles for you."

"..." In front of the stubborn guardian knight, Leo finally sighed helplessly, "I'm really sorry that this has become such an awkward situation. Let's have a quick fight, Shuoyue."

"I can't ask for it."

The topic was forcibly interrupted, and Shuoyue had no intention of continuing. With the sharp iron light, he grasped the black and white sword blade.

"After all, practice is the only criterion for testing truth."

Throwing the unknown humor to Leo, Shuoyue completely calmed down and held the sword in hand, waiting.

Even from the memories before the time travel, the young man still clearly remembered that the boy Leonardo Bistario Xavi was a character sketched out based on King Arthur.

While inheriting the wisdom of the king, he also inherited the ruthlessness of the sacred king.

Such a leader - no wonder Gao Wen surrendered, and no wonder people close to him would say the sad saying "the king does not understand human nature".

Similarly, if he has already corrected one person who has fallen into paranoia, he can naturally correct the second one.

"The answer will be found when you lose, Leo!"

----

The battle began quickly.

At the same time——it soon came to an end.

Almost all Masters began looking forward to the moment when the mysterious and talented Servant Sakutsuki would confront the famous Leo during the second battle, imagining how they would advance and retreat while each other, counter each other's moves, and be evenly matched.

However, that refers to the new moon before the Fourth War.

In the first battle, he retrieved the two great magicians and the electric shock user's treasure.

In the second battle, he retrieved the unparalleled magic fist.
In the third battle, the Mystic Eyes of Death Perception showed their brilliance.

Finally, in the fourth battle, the dragon physique that could support the operation of this killing machine returned to the young man.

Although Sakutsuki Archer is still a Servant in name, he can fully bear all the power of the main body due to his adaptability. After all, the origin of Sakutsuki's existence comes from the original Iron-making Heroic Spirit.

At this moment, the one standing in front of Gawain is a magician who controls the third law and the supreme magic; a warrior whose martial arts have reached the divine realm and whose bow, spear, and sword are unparalleled in the world; and a great hero bestowed by heaven, whose mystery is comparable to that of the Age of Gods.

Even the dazzling sun among the Knights of the Round Table seems insignificant in front of this last knight who has reached the pinnacle of legend.

What's more, the young people are still writing their legends step by step - but the heroes recorded in the Heroic Throne have stopped moving forward.

Once surpassed, there is no possibility of catching up.

"Raiden, summon!"

His footsteps were as fast as a ghost, and he dodged the sword attack just in time. His red robe fluttered, and he fell into the diamond-shaped space like a butterfly. The next moment, he appeared behind Gawain, pointed his finger to the sky, and the thunderstorm clouds that had been condensing since the beginning of the war roared, pouring out lightning filled with positive and negative charges, which struck the knight who looked like a prince charming into dust and half-knelt on the ground.

"Gawain, be careful ahead." Leo raised his hand to block the flying dust, and still did not forget to remind his servant, but it was too late. Shuoyue, who possessed the magic of replacement, was so fast that even the sound waves could not catch up.

With a clear "click" sound, the young man's palm grabbed Gawain's head like a claw. Gawain struggled subconsciously and barely raised his eyes. What he saw was Shuoyue's sunny smile.

"You know, I've wanted to try this a long time ago."

Beautiful young man, the effect is activated.

The judgment was a big failure!
A sudden chill gripped Gawain's heart, churning and twisting it. He looked at the smiling New Moon, a handsome face that was almost as handsome as our king's, but now filled with an ominous smell like the devil of hell. In the brief silence, it seemed as if an endless abyss rose up from the valley, greedily licking the sun, and finally opened its mouth wide to swallow it up.

In despair, Gawain closed his eyes.

Sincerely, Sir Tristan.

Today, I finally understand your sadness...

Then, at a speed that suddenly increased, Gawain's soul said goodbye to his body before he could even utter his last words.

Boom boom boom!

Wild laughter and the sound of a building exploding were heard one after another, and the Moon Holy Grail War also ushered in its final night.
