Paradise: Ready Player One

"The Wisdom of the Demon Realm" has already told Scathach the answer to this question.

"In terms of martial arts alone, I am no match for you, Laer, there is no doubt about it, but for me, the Holy Grail cannot be given up no matter what..."

Arturia said in a low voice.

"That's not necessary, Avalon is part of your power, no one can use it except you"

Scathach reached out and called back the magic gun.

She has no interest in continuing a battle that is doomed to fail.

This is a high emotional intelligence statement.

The one with a lower EQ is that Arturia's limited martial arts level has already made Scatha uninterested.

Seeing this, Artoria silently put down her sword.

She also knew that she had lost this fight, and if it wasn't for Avalon's strength, that blow just now would have been enough to knock her out.

Regarding the Holy Grail, Arturia has reasons why she cannot give up, and it is impossible for her to give up voluntarily.

That being the case, the outcome of this Holy Grail War should be left in the hands of their respective masters.

In the hall

Emiya Kiritsugu fell to the ground, his heart had been shattered, and he was probably only short of his last breath before dying.

And not far in front of Emiya Kiritsugu, Kotomine Kirei half-kneeled on the ground, his entire right arm bone had been broken into several pieces, leaving only a layer of flesh still connected, it was completely Abandoned.

But this kind of superficial injury is actually nothing, ordinary healing magic is enough to restore it.

What really inflicted heavy damage on Kotomine Kirei was the destruction of the magic circuit by the Origin Bullet.

However, Kotomine Kirei, who had long been prepared for this, did not activate many magic circuits at all during the battle just now.

Even if it is still hit by the origin bomb in the end, the lethality it can cause is greatly weakened.

Although it also caused irreparable damage to Kotomine Kirei's body, it was not enough to kill him.

This battle was undoubtedly won by Kotomine Kirei.

Just as he was about to get up, he suddenly raised his head as if he felt something.

The accident came suddenly.

The bright lights on the top of the guild hall went out at the same time, and the rows of light tubes could not withstand the heavy pressure and all shattered.

Before the guild hall was completely shrouded in darkness, Kotomine Kirei saw that as the roof shattered, a large amount of dirty blood poured down.

There was no time to dodge, and the two of them were all submerged here.

Emiya Kiritsugu, whose consciousness was about to dissipate, was pulled back from the brink of death by a force.

When he came back to his senses, he found himself on a stretch of sandy beach.

"I'm alive?"

Emiya Kiritsugu pressed his chest instinctively, but he didn't feel his heart beating, denying this possibility.

The surrounding scene made him feel extremely familiar, it was the small island where he lived when he was young.

That was the most carefree time for Emiya Kiritsugu.

However, all the good things on the island were destroyed by his father and himself.

Even today, he doesn't want to recall this past.

"I'm sure you can get here"

Irisviel's voice appeared behind Emiya Kiritsugu, and he looked back.

He looked at the person he loved deeply in front of him.

Emiya Kiritsugu was extremely sure that she was not Irisviel, even though the other party had the same face and figure.

"This is the place where your wishes can come true"

"Irisviel" said so.

Emiya Kiritsugu immediately understood the meaning of these words.

"It's the inside of the Holy Grail you're after."

"Irisviel" gave the answer that Emiya Kiritsugu thought about.

However, looking at the "black rain" pattering down in the sky, I feel the ominous atmosphere in the air, and the full moon in the sky that emits scarlet light like a black hole.

Emiya Kiritsugu couldn't connect this world with the Holy Grail no matter what.

"That's the Holy Grail"

"Irisviel" followed Emiya Kiritsugu's gaze and looked up together, explaining responsibly.

"Although it has not yet been formed, the container has been filled"

Even though the souls of five servants have been taken in, the inside of the Holy Grail is said to be full.

This is actually caused by the "black mud".

As for why Emiya Kiritsugu, who has become a loser, was pulled into this space, this may also be partly due to Irisviel.

Even though the real Irisviel has been swallowed by the "black mud" inside the "Holy Grail", as a container, she seems to have had a slight impact on the Holy Grail.

Of course, it's more likely that the "black mud" couldn't wait to come to the "outside", and that's why he pulled the dying Emiya Kiritsugu in.

Because of all the Masters, this one has the strongest desire for the Holy Grail in his heart.

As long as the other party makes a wish, no matter what it is, "Black Mud" can interpret it with his own thinking logic, and then flood the world with endless malice.

Chapter 322 Finale ([-])

Seeing that Emiya Kiritsugu remained silent, "Irisviel" continued to speak.

"So, please, give it a shape quickly, Kiritsugu, only you are qualified to define its shape"

Although no emotional fluctuations could be heard in this voice, Emiya Kiritsugu could feel the desire and urgency hidden under the words of the other party.

The Holy Grail was supposed to have no self-awareness.

But when it was polluted and endowed with endless malice, it also gave birth to its own consciousness.

It can be known from the fact that it has its own wishes.

This will draw Kotomine Kirei, who does not have any desire for the Holy Grail, into this Holy Grail War, and will use the image of Irisviel to trick Emiya Kiritsugu to make a wish.

However, even though the "wish" was within easy reach, Emiya Kiritsugu still maintained enough calmness, staring at "Irisviel" and asked.

"Then what are you?"

"I'm Irisviel"

"Don't try to deceive me, if the Holy Grail ceremony has been completed, then she would have already..."

"Yeah, I don't deny it's my mask"

Even though the lie was exposed, "Irisviel" still didn't change his face, but made the words clear.

"If I don't put on an existing personality as a shell, I can't communicate with others, but the personality of Irisviel I recorded is absolutely fake"

In other words, Irisviel's soul is imprisoned in the inner world of the Holy Grail at this moment.

Emiya Kiritsugu's face darkened slightly.

"So I also inherited Irisviel's last wish"

"Are you the will of the Holy Grail?"

"Yes, this explanation is not wrong. I have a will and a wish. My wish is to come to this world."

Emiya Kiritsugu had already realized at this time that the Holy Grail he longed for had undergone changes that he had never known.

It is obviously just a holy grail used to realize the wishes of others, how could it be possible to have one's own wishes.

"How can the Holy Grail fulfill my wish?"

Emiya Kiritsugu eagerly wanted to know more.

"Shouldn't you know this question better than anyone else?"

Irisviel turned around sharply, with an obvious puzzled expression on her face.

Because this line should belong to her, but it came out of someone else's mouth.

Emiya Kiritsugu also turned his head immediately, with a look of astonishment on his face.

I saw that the space behind him was cut by a red line.

A familiar figure slowly walked out.

"This consciousness space is quite tight. If it weren't for you, I might not be able to get in."

Chen Ming took a step forward and patted Emiya Kiritsugu on the shoulder to express his gratitude.

"you are still alive?!"

Shocked, Emiya Kiritsugu selectively ignored the extra hand on his shoulder.

"Is there anything surprising about this?"

Chen Ming gave Emiya Kiritsugu a "fussy" look.

"How did you get in?!"

After Emiya Kiritsugu, "Irisviel" immediately asked the second question.

"Didn't you already answer it just now?"

Chen Ming didn't intend to explain it again.

Nor did he lie.

It was indeed through the guidance of Emiya Kiritsugu's soul that he successfully used the "Red Wing Formation" to open the consciousness space inside the Holy Grail.

It is worth noting that the consciousness space that Chen Ming entered only belonged to the "Little Holy Grail", that is, the consciousness space constructed based on the spirit of Irisviel.

Even so, it took Chen Ming a lot of effort.
