The Chosen Sword: Original Sin.

Or another, more famous name, Sword in the Trees: Grammer.

Gram/Gramr comes from the great god Odin and was given to Siegmund. He is also the great hero Siegmund praised as the "King of Warriors" in the Nordic mythology "The Legend of Volsung". Sigurd's sword.

Forged by the dwarves with the iron of the underworld, the holy sword and the magic sword shine with the glory of the hero's victory and represent his heroic life.

In order to prevent the curse of the magic sword from affecting the sword holder and protect the safety of the sword holder, the scabbard is also made of feather stones made from the leaves of the World Tree.

It represents glory and death, and is said to be the prototype of the Sword in the Stone.

And just like the Sword in the Stone that was given the ability to choose a king, the Sword in the Tree that was spread in Northern Europe and given "control" was originally used to select the king and was the source of "sacred power".

In terms of level, although they are both weapons made by gods, the level of the Chosen Sword is a little lower than that of the Deviation Sword. This is probably because in myths and legends, this Chosen Sword was once struck by the great god Odin with Gangnir. caused by fragmentation.

But Gilgamesh would choose to take out this sword at this time, naturally he has his reasons.

Gilgamesh held the rather simple-looking Sword of Choice and surrounded Zheng Shu calmly. As he walked, he observed the precious phantoms destroyed by him around Zheng Shu:

"Sure enough, it is just as I imagined. Among all the Noble Phantasms that attacked you, the energy attack Noble Phantasm did not suffer much damage. This means that you did not defend yourself at all, while the physical attack Noble Phantasm was severely damaged. It’s very serious, it means you interrupted it with your own body.”

Gilgamesh ignored Matou Sakura's look that looked like she wanted to eat him, and walked up to Zheng Shu very confidently.

"The armor you are wearing should be specialized in absorbing non-physical attacks. In addition, it can evenly spread physical attacks to your body. Even in my treasure house, this armor It can be considered a treasure..." Gilgamesh stroked the long sword in his hand, "But that's it, I have found a way to break through your defense."

The Sword of Choice is different from the Sword of Deviation, which relies entirely on special effects to attack. The attack method of the Sword of Choice is extremely simple, which is pure attack power.

Whether it is the laws induced or the power of the sword itself, they are all aimed at improving the attack power of the sword. Especially before the recasting, the selected sword had almost no range attacks and focused on one-on-one attacks. battle.

The method of use is also very simple. As long as the user injects magic power into it, he can easily wield it, which is comparable to the one-shot Herak that Arturia and Shirou Emiya made together during the Fifth Holy Grail War. The Seven Killing Sword that directly cut off Les's seven lives.

As long as the user continues to inject magic power, the user can easily reach this level every time he swings the sword, and as the user's input of magic power increases, the attack power of the sword will increase exponentially.

In terms of physical damage, this sword is basically the most damaging weapon in Gilgamesh's treasure trove.

"lady!"

Just when Gilgamesh raised the sword in his hand and was about to swing it down, an anxious cry came from the side.

Kuu Maiya supported Irisviel's body, and Emiya Chase, who was originally hiding aside, gave up hiding and ran towards this side quickly.

At this time, Irisviel's eyes had become blank, and her body fell limply to the ground, seemingly completely lifeless.

The death of Assassin and Rider caused their spiritual bases to be recovered by Irisviel, causing her body functions to be suppressed to the limit by the Holy Grail.

If she hadn't still been carrying the glass bottle Zheng Shu had given her before to continuously provide strength to her body, she would have lost her human form long ago.

"It seems it's almost time." Zheng Shu, who had been silent since being tied up, suddenly raised his head and looked at Irisviel, who was lying on the ground beside him, being supported by Emiya Kiritsugu. .

Emiya Kiritsugu looked at his wife in his arms with a look of pain on his face.

After marrying Irisviel and waiting for her to give birth to Illya, Emiya Kiritsugu had actually been quite shaken.

He thought about giving up many times, but whenever he hesitated, Irisviel would always comfort him gently and always firmly supported his ideal, even if it meant her own death. Nothing has changed.

But now looking at Irisviel who was collapsed on the ground and completely unconscious, Emiya Kiritsugu felt that he was so selfish before and completely ignored her feelings.

"I say, Master of Saber, are you ready?" Zheng Shu's voice suddenly woke up Emiya Kiritsugu who was immersed in grief.

He suddenly looked up and saw Zheng Shu, who was bound by heavy chains.

However, although his body was completely restrained, there was no sadness or despair in his eyes at all, he just looked at himself intently.

Recalling what he said when he came to visit this morning, Emiya Kiritsugu gritted his teeth and nodded firmly.

At this point, the only thing he can trust is his childhood "idol"!

Zheng Shu watched Emiya Kiritsugu's actions and smiled with satisfaction. He didn't care about Gilgamesh next to him. He closed his eyes slightly and sent out the Berserker's spirit base that had been restrained in his body.

In an instant, after sensing Berserker's spiritual power, Irisviel's body finally reached its limit, and the human body began to turn into light and dissipate, replaced by the golden Holy Grail floating in mid-air.

"Holy Grail!" During this lesson, both Tohsaka Tokiomi and Emiya Kiritsugu showed indescribable expressions in their eyes.

Especially Tohsaka Tokiomi, when he thought that the "door" to the source was right in front of him, his eyes were so hot that he seemed to be able to melt the Holy Grail.

However, Emiya Kiritsugu had heard Zheng Shu talk about the Holy Grail after all, so he quickly turned away from the dazzling treasure and turned to the seal left by Irisviel after she disappeared. glass bottle.

boom!

Without hesitation, Emiya Kiritsugu took out the firearm in his hand and fired at the glass bottle, shattering it directly. The moment the container that sealed him shattered, the bright liquid immediately began to take effect.

The soul-protecting spell that Irisviel had cast on herself earlier began to take effect, and a group of soul fire that looked somewhat incomplete slowly emerged.

At this time, it can be clearly seen that this group of soul fire is being continuously absorbed by the Holy Grail, but the bright liquid immediately poured into the soul fire after it came out, as if adding fuel to the fire, it immediately stabilized the soul fire. got up.

After the Holy Grail finally absorbed enough soul energy and fully opened, the bright liquid began to take the next step. A large amount of liquid surrounded the soul fire, outlines a trace of a human figure in the air.

Bones, muscles, nerves, and skin all grew rapidly out of thin air under the stimulation of the bright liquid. In just the blink of an eye, Irisviel's body had begun to take shape.

"Soul materialization?!" Tokiomi Tosaka was shocked when he saw the effect of the bright liquid, but then he breathed a sigh of relief.

Although the soul aura is very strong, this is actually just a simple recasting of the body, which is somewhat similar to the third method but different.

After Emiya Kiritsugu wrapped Irisviel's new body in the clothes she had previously worn on the ground, he asked Kuu Maiya and Artoria to quickly carry her away, while he himself stood Next to the Holy Grail, he looked warily at the circular hole summoned above the Holy Grail.

"what is that?"

"That's the 'root'!"

The reactions of Emiya Kiritsugu and Tokiomi Tohsaka were completely different. One became extremely vigilant because of Zheng Shu's reminder, while the other became more fanatical.

"What a good show, Berserker." After Irisviel's body was completely generated, Gilgamesh withdrew his gaze and looked at Zheng Shu who was completely fixed by him with interest, "I didn't expect you A mad dog actually has such a..."

boom!

Before Gilgamesh could finish his words, he received a punch in the face. He flew out upside down and landed on the distant land in a spiral flying posture.

Click, click, click!

At this time, the sound of the chain breaking was heard. Zheng Shu flicked it lightly, and the heavenly lock that was supposed to be indestructible was broken by him. However, he did not continue to pursue after throwing this punch. He comforted Matou Sakura who was a little worried.

"You?! How is that possible?" Gilgamesh pulled out his head from the ground in disbelief, looking at Zheng Shu who easily broke free from the Heavenly Locks in the distance, his eyes full of confusion.

Zheng Shu rubbed his wrists and discarded the remains of the chain on his body. He tilted his head and looked at Gilgamesh: "You really don't have a long memory. I told you to keep your mouth clean."

"You..." Gilgamesh's face turned red, unable to understand how Zheng Shu escaped from the shackles of the Heavenly Lock.

Logically speaking, with Zheng Shu's level of divinity, the strength of the Heavenly Lock should far exceed the limit that a servant can break free from.

Zheng Shu glanced at him and said nothing. Of course, he would not tell Gilgamesh that the so-called ability of the Heavenly Lock to change its strength in response to divinity was also considered "fancy" in the judgment of the armor.

Therefore, from the very beginning when the Heavenly Lock was tied to Zheng Shu's body, its detection ability had been cut off by the armor, and it could only maintain the hardness of the most ordinary iron chain from beginning to end.

The reason why Zheng Shu hasn't made any big moves is because he just wants to see what kind of work Gilgamesh can do.

Unfortunately, although Gilgamesh showed a good strategy, due to various misunderstandings, the information he thought up was different from the real information.

Now that he knew that he had nothing new to do, Zheng Shu was too lazy to play any more.

He turned his head to look in the direction of the Holy Grail. At this time, the hole summoned by the Holy Grail was already flowing with black mud as dark as oil.

Tokiomi Tosaka and Kiritsugu Emiya were drowned by the flowing black mud because they couldn't dodge, or they didn't even think about dodging.

However, Zheng Shu said that it was not a big problem whether Emiya Kiritsugu could come out alive. Although Emiya Kiritsugu's mentality of saving the world was shaken, on the other hand, Emiya Kiritsugu's mentality of wanting to protect his family became more He is determined and has already known the truth about Hei Ni in advance. With his will, it is impossible for him to overturn.

As for Tokiomi Tohsaka...the Gosan family knows the information about the Holy Grail quite well.

If a magician could be overturned by the black mud despite knowing so much information, then Zheng Shu would rather believe that Tokiomi Tokiomi Tohsaka had two dicks growing on his crotch after he came out of the black mud.

"Is this the Holy Grail?" Irisviel had already woken up at this time.

After waking up, Irisviel immediately checked her body, and was surprised to find that the body was surprisingly healthy.

Not only does she not have the various flaws of a homunculus, but the traces of various spells that were engraved on her when she was born to accommodate the souls of her servants have also disappeared - which means that she has finally gotten rid of her identity as the Holy Grail.

She turned her head and looked at the golden Holy Grail suspended in mid-air, with a complicated expression on her face.

After knowing her fate, Irisviel did not choose to resist because she knew that she was not qualified to do so. The only good thing is that she met Emiya Kiritsugu before the start of this Holy Grail War, and she fell in love with this man.

But it is precisely because of the relationship that Irisviel knows very well that once she and Emiya Kiritsugu fail, the next person to bear such a fate will be Illya!

She didn't want her daughter to suffer the same fate as her, so she wanted Emiya Kiritsugu to obtain the Holy Grail.

But... after taking one look at the black mud flowing out of the hole, Irisviel knew that Emiya Kiritsugu's plan had failed. It was impossible for such a Holy Grail to fulfill his wish.

Irisviel looked at Emiya Kiritsugu who gradually emerged from the black mud, and suddenly felt a little distressed.

But before she could say anything, she found that Emiya Kiritsugu had regained consciousness and ran towards her direction.

"Kiritsugu!" Irisviel worriedly supported Emiya Kiritsugu, who seemed to be staggering, and quickly cast healing magic.

Although Emiya Kiritsugu was prepared in advance because of Zheng Shu's reminder, his mind and body were still "burned" by the black mud, and his whole person seemed much weaker.

Emiya Kiritsugu's condition improved significantly after undergoing several healing spells. Then he had no time to talk to his newly resurrected wife, but looked at Artoria very firmly, revealing that he was wearing a command spell. arm.

"In the name of the Command Seal, Saber, I command you to destroy the Holy Grail!"

"What?!" Artoria looked at Emiya Kiritsugu in disbelief, wondering why he was so determined.

But Emiya Kiritsugu had no intention of explaining himself. Although the time he was submerged in the black mud was short, he had been communicating with the spirit of the black mud for a long time.

Therefore, Emiya Kiritsugu knew very well that the "thing" in front of him was definitely not a treasure that could help people realize their wishes. On the contrary, it was a curse that could destroy mankind!

Faced with such a threat, Emiya Kiritsugu had no intention of letting the Holy Grail survive for much longer.

Seeing that Artoria relied on her own magic power to resist this order, Emiya Kiritsugu used the last command spell without hesitation:

"In the name of the Command Seal, Saber, I command you to destroy the Holy Grail!"

"Emiya...you..." Artoria's tone was full of anger, but even with her magic power, she couldn't resist the two consecutive command spells. She could only reluctantly raise the Sword of Victory in her hand. .

"Asshole! What do you bastards want to do?!" Seeing what happened here, Gilgamesh, who was originally angry at Zheng Shu's behavior, was also diverted.

In his opinion, the Holy Grail should have been a treasure in his treasury. Now these clowns want to destroy his treasure at will without his consent. It is absolutely unbearable blasphemy for Gilgamesh.

The golden vortex in the sky was unfolded by Gilgamesh, and a large number of Noble Phantasms were ready to go. The current relationship between Gilgamesh and Arturia was not too deep, and he did not want to accept her as his wife. idea.

Faced with Artoria, who wanted to destroy the Holy Grail, she naturally used all her firepower and decided to act ruthlessly.

Faced with such a terrible sense of oppression, Emiya Kiritsugu didn't pay attention at all. He just stared at the long sword in Artoria's hand that was already glowing with golden light.

As soon as Zheng Shu saw this guy's actions, he knew that he had committed his old habit again. He was planning to sacrifice himself and others to smash the Holy Grail.

"You guy, it's better to change your habit of sacrificing others." Zheng Shu patted Emiya Kiritsugu's stiff shoulder, then turned to look at Gilgamesh.

Snapped!

"ah!!!"

With a muffled sound, the skin on Gilgamesh's face suddenly exploded, and his entire face was torn to pieces. Among the flesh and blood remains, there were some things that looked like yellow flour cakes.

His face suddenly suffered an unknown attack, Gilgamesh screamed in pain, and the golden vortex around him also shook. Because of the sudden injury, Gilgamesh's will was caught off guard and he almost closed the King's Treasure. Portal.

However, Gilgamesh's pain did not last long. The next second, Zheng Shu's eyes moved slightly...

puff!

A dull explosion sounded, and Gilgamesh's head suddenly swelled and then exploded from the inside.

Bang!

The headless corpse fell to the ground, and the body and the armor began to turn into golden spirits and dissipate, and the portal in the sky quickly closed, as if it had never appeared.

Even until his death, Gilgamesh didn't know what move he was killed by. Even though he was carrying the Omniscient and Omnipotent Star, he still couldn't see the source of the attack.

Of course he couldn't understand that for Zheng Shu's divine weapons, whether they were omniscient and omnipotent stars or clairvoyance, they were all within the scope of "fancy" judgments.

After all, whether it's future vision, clairvoyance or other similar things, this is essentially the end of detection magic. In other words, the moment these things come into contact with the armor, they will be transformed into pure magic power by the armor.

Of course, for Zheng Shu, a magical impact of this magnitude is probably not even enough to scratch his itch.

He didn't pay attention to Gilgamesh's body lying on the ground. As he said before, Zheng Shu was just playing with these people from the beginning.

The moment the ability to summon instant noodles was restored, even though his basic attributes were limited, his strength was no longer something that a servant of this level could face.

Zheng Shu turned around and continued to watch the scene where Artoria was preparing to release the light cannon. I have to admit that the sword looks more beautiful when it releases the light cannon.

Others present, including Artoria who was releasing the light cannon, showed extreme shock when faced with the effect of Zheng Shu killing Gilgamesh with just one look.

"This...this..." Weber's lips trembled twice, but in the end he still didn't know what to say.

Now he finally understood that the Berserker in front of him had been playing house with the little girl. If it were not for the little girl, the so-called Holy Grail War might really be solved by him in one night.

Thinking of this, Weber suddenly felt that the sadness of Iskandar's death was diluted a lot. He even felt that he missed the Clock Tower a little now...

"No!" Recalling Professor Kenneth who left early, Weber shuddered, "If I go back now, I'll be dead... Forget it, I'd better stay outside for two years and wait for Professor Kenneth's anger to subside. Come back after you come down."

On the other side, Artoria's charge ended quickly with the support of the Command Seal, and the surging golden torrent accurately hit the Holy Grail suspended in the air.

Even the Holy Grail, which was carefully crafted by the three major families, could not withstand such an attack and was torn into pieces in an instant.

"Emiya..." Artoria glanced at Emiya Kiritsugu with complicated eyes.

In fact, she also knew that the Holy Grail had been contaminated and could not fulfill her wish, but she still couldn't help but hate the Master who made her destroy the Holy Grail with her own hands.

But it's useless to say anything now. The Little Holy Grail has been destroyed, and the running ritual has been forcibly stopped. Artoria has lost the carrier that supported her appearance in this timeline, and can only slowly disappear unwillingly.

Because the ceremony has stopped, the huge hole that was just opened in mid-air is slowly disappearing.

However, it seems that out of malice and unwillingness towards human beings, the huge hole spit out a mouthful of "black mud" before disappearing.

The black liquid magic power burned with blazing flames, slowly spreading outward from Einzbern Castle as the center.

"What is going on?!" Emiya Kiritsugu looked at the black mud where the burning flames were spreading rapidly, and his expression was ugly. "I messed up again..."

"What are you thinking about? Step back like crazy. Be careful. You won't survive long in your current state if you get these things." Zheng Shu's voice came from behind.

Immediately afterwards, Emiya Kiritsugu found himself caught by Zheng Shu, and he and Irisviel were thrown away from the black mud, while he himself stepped into the black mud with unusual determination.
