Kiara Sessyoin Defeated / And So He Became a God

At this time, due to the change in the computer world, BB was no longer bound by this specification, and naturally stood on Gudako's side. By nature, she preferred to stay in the back and act as the commander.

However, in order to defeat Kishou Shotoku, Zabith made a series of preparations, including strategies against Human Evil prepared by BB, items to prevent being charmed, lowering Katsushiroin's level, and sealing Katsushiroin skills. During this time, BB was not idle; she developed all sorts of things, determined to turn everything around.

Because Kishou Shotoku's body is an oil field base that transforms into a computer space similar to Mooncell, she is also affected by the rules here, and BB's cheat privileges become effective against her.

"Operation! CCC, Cursed-Cutting-Crater! Officially launched! Let's gloriously defeat the Human Evil who intend to possess Earth, like the stinking sewers!" BB shouted loudly.

Chapter 276 The Katsushiroin

That was the dazzling aurora piercing the blue starry night, exceeding the speed of light, carrying a belief even more dazzling than these lights as it continued to fly upwards.

"This is not running away! This is absolutely not giving up!"

Lilith is the embodiment of joy, as proud as a swan, always a free and unrestrained girl who doesn't care about facing enemies of vastly superior strength.

Even when faced with the baby that brought her into the world, she did not back down, let alone when it came to the hated Kishou Shotoku; she would fight to the very end.

But for Gudako, for the future that would bring happiness to this girl, she would keep charging forward, no matter how many times, until her Spirit Origin was completely shattered.

Unlike the previous playthrough, in order to change the future, she did many things that she would never have done before. Realizing that she and Lip's power were not enough to fight against Kishou Shotoku, she secretly approached BB.

Then they gathered and stood together, allowing the Servant, who had no direct connection to this computerized space, to fight against Kishou Shotoku.

In Buddhist scriptures, the Five Aggregates (五蕴黑绳) refer to five aggregates or five senses, representing the five senses of sight, hearing, smell, taste, and touch.

The Black Rope is one of the Great Hells.

In Kishou Shotoku's hands, this skill became a means of persuasion through the five senses. Once any of her senses came into contact with the temptation, they would become her followers and captives.

Using the rules of the computer space, BB sealed Kishou Shotoku's abilities with KP's energy.

At this moment, the space was filled with mosaics, and the pink aura on Katsushiroin's body was swept away, and her clothes changed color.

Lilith and Lip activated their combined Noble Phantasm once again. The girl leaped into the air, transforming into a streak of light, and kicked at Kishou Shotoku with her raised toes.

Lilith had been waiting for this moment for a very, very long time.

When she first used the fusion Noble Phantasm to return to the moment before Gudako entered this world, she came to the church, searching for her past self.

At this moment, Lilith sat alone on the steps inside the church, refusing to help the girl who was BB, and also refusing to absorb any humans or Servant as energy, and could only wait there to be initialized.

Lilith shared the data from her memories directly with her, and the other person responded immediately.

"I understand, please, please save that person no matter what. I've placed all this hardship on your shoulders, and... thank you for letting me have a good dream..."

At that moment, she smiled and calmly accepted her fate. Without ever seeing that girl again, she was reduced to fragments of wreckage amidst a shattering sound.

Lilith, who remained behind, immediately set off to find Gudako, who had been separated from Suzuka Gozen Servant and attacked by Gudako... which led to the events that followed.

At this moment! A white rainbow, shimmering with a blue halo, rushed towards Human Evil enemy at a speed exceeding that of light.

At that moment, in the rapidly moving girl's mind, the face of the person she had encountered again, someone she no longer recognized, flashed through her mind...

"Yes! Farewell! Even though soon our hands will part, even though soon this body's Spirit Origin will shatter, only our connected hearts will never be separated!"

The girl poured all her overflowing emotions, everything she had experienced so far, into her toes, gathering it all into a dazzling white and blue light, and kicked it out.

The Noble Phantasm exploded violently, piercing Kishou Shotoku's chest, and she was sent flying. The heart inside the Demonic Bodhisattva's massive body shattered, and Kishou Shotoku tilted backward, about to sink into the sea.

Because of her enormous size, the speed at which she sank created huge waves and foam in the deep sea.

"We're both monsters born from happiness, so it's only natural that we hate each other. But why go to such lengths?! What good does it do you?! You'll disappear too!" Kishou Shotoku shouted.

"So what? Disappearing with the person you hate is barely acceptable. Do you really think I, as the female lead, would leave the final blow to someone else?" Lilith retorted.

"MeltLilith!!!" Katsushiroin shouted in exasperation.

Lilith shouted, "Katsushiroin! Let me tell you! It's a girl's duty to protect her own love! Isn't that something she should always do?"

"How could I possibly understand such a matter of course! Don't lump me in with you! This body is no longer usable! Then you will become my vessel!"

Kishou Shotoku cursed angrily, her long black hair transforming into the tentacles of Demon Pillar, stretching out like snakes and coiling towards the petite girl, attempting to possess her with her will.

"As long as I kill Gudako and hide without Chaldea discovering my whereabouts, the desires of those 'humans' are endless. With just a little waiting, my power will soon be restored!"

"We can't let you continue doing this," came the boy's voice from behind.

Bang! Bang!

A series of gunshots rang out.

The snake-like long hair was hit and bounced away.

What appeared there was Shirou, seemingly summoned and dressed in a black spirit suit. He had been waiting for this moment to get everything back on track.

Shirou's eyes shone with pure white light, swirling with iridescent vortexes. Having witnessed the battle of the gods, the boy had mastered the correct way to use his eyes. He held the white chains he had created, which appeared high in the sky, coiled around the girl's waist, and instantly tightened, pulling her back.

"Aaaaaah... aaaaaahhhhh, it hurts so much, it's collapsing! My body is collapsing. It feels so good, no, I can't take it anymore, I can't take it anymore~! I can't stop! Aaaaaahhhh!!! Not enough! Don't end! I want to start all over again! Because... I'm not satisfied yet, aaaaaahhhhh~!"

The woman's loud voice echoed through the deep sea, then fell silent. Her enormous body, crushed by the weight of the ocean, sank motionless to the bottom, her heartless form sinking deeper into the ocean.

Although this experience was joyful, the woman still couldn't understand why, despite being non-human and both embodiments of happiness, she was different from Lilith. Would she understand if she became Alter-Ego?

Thinking this, Kishou Shotoku sank into the sea.

At that moment, Shirou opened his arms, leaped up, and caught the girl who was being pulled back from the sky.

"Shirou-senpai!" Gudako exclaimed in surprise.

"Sorry, Gudako, I made you worry," Shirou said with a light laugh.

"Put me down! You bastard! Put me down!" Lilith, still lying in Shirou's arms in Princess carry, shouted excitedly, her face flushed, waving her little hands with rolled-up sleeves and tapping Shirou's head.

"I know, I know!" Shirou replied helplessly.

"..." Lip, standing to the side, seemed to be deep in thought, looking at the boy with a mixture of envy and anticipation.

"..." Shirou felt the gaze and smiled helplessly. One ton was a bit too much of a stretch.

The battle here has come to an end, but the battle in another dimension continues.

"Why? Why was I defeated?" The Demonic Bodhisattva collapsed, filled with confusion. She looked at her opponent, a girl with long brown hair, and couldn't understand why she had lost to an ordinary Master and a Servant who wasn't even a top-tier Servant.

Andersen, who had been hiding in spirit form, appeared at the last moment and answered the Master's questions.

Andersen looked at the disgusted woman with disdain and said, "What? Don't you understand? It's true that you are now omnipotent, and there's no reason for you to lose against humans. However, there is only one human you cannot kill, and that is none other than..."

"Zabith."

"You not only absorbed AlterEgo, but also BB and Sakura. You should say that you used their power as your source. Therefore, when you faced Zabith, you were unable to exert your power from the very beginning."

Why, you ask? Ha, is it even necessary to explain? Because those you consider your core members are fighting desperately within your ranks to protect their loved ones."

Kishou Shotoku looked at Andersen with difficulty and asked, "How could... just because of... such a reason? Why... didn't you tell me?"

Andersen looked at the gigantic woman with disdain and said, "What nonsense are you spouting? You wicked woman! There's only one enemy on this planet who can defeat you. I thought you accepted the challenge knowing that, and I was thinking you were incredibly stupid... but I never imagined you were a fool beyond stupidity. It's outrageous! You didn't even realize your own weakness before confidently trying to kill Zabith -on!"

Kishou Shotoku, curled up, said, "If I had known... I wouldn't have chosen to fight. I would have just flung her into a domain and destroyed her along with it. Ah... but it's a wonderful reason, not by a hero, nor by savior."

Instead, he was defeated by "women" in the same way... Relationships between men and women are truly incredible things, so it's only natural that Mooncell would find them difficult...

After confirming that control of the Mooncell had returned to Sakura Matou, Zabith Andersen Zabith to leave the Mooncell central hub, which was about to be restarted to remove foreign objects.

At the last moment, BB blocked the rapidly restarting Mooncell core for Zabith's sake, safely sending Zabith back to the Moon's surface.

Only the remains of Kishou Shotoku, whose wreckage was still not completely destroyed due to its immense mass, and Hans Christian Andersen, the bespectacled Andersen with a mature male voice, remained by her side even after her Master betrayed the world, refusing to fight from the Servant.

"Do you think I'm defeated by the romances between girls?"

"Aren't you omniscient and omnipotent? Why would you ask such a question?" Andersen asked sarcastically.

"Even the Mooncells don't understand human emotions, but I've received more love than anyone else, yet I still can't comprehend their feelings."

"Hmph, pathetic woman. Whether it's your love or the love your followers have for you, it's all just taking. But young girls understand how to give, not about getting something from the person they like, but about wanting to do something for the person they like."

"Your love is merely a desire for your own pleasure, and your followers only seek salvation and the fulfillment of their desires through you. Yet, young women, for the sake of love, end up disheveled and wounded. That is the biggest difference between you."

At that moment, a white portal of light appeared high in the sky.

Long, long ago, there was a boy who idolized heroes and champions of justice. When he was young, he encountered an inexplicable disaster and was rescued from the ruins of a burning wasteland by a man. The man who found him was overjoyed; his smile was simply...

As a child, the boy saw the man's expression and felt a joy akin to that of someone who had received salvation.

So, in the hospital, in front of his peers who had suffered the same fate, the boy agreed.

The man asked him, "Do you want to go to the church's orphanage with everyone else, or do you want to live with me?"

The small hand was placed in the man's palm.

This is how it all began. Under Kiritsugu Emiya's tutelage, he became Magus who wasn't even a half-baked one.

Later, the boy learned that the children who were also rescued from the fire did not leave the church in the orphanage, but were placed directly in coffins in the basement by the priest and made into magic batteries to provide to a certain Servant had gained a physical body because of the Black Mud.

It may not seem like the best choice, but it was actually the only correct one. The boy's life was a cruel joke played on him by fate.

He loathed all of this and wanted to sever ties with the past, even though it was already a fait accompli.

Seeing that expression, the boy couldn't help but feel a sense of longing. And so he began a life of endless repetition, killing one group of people, then moving on to another group at a different time to kill another.

If we compare all the energy generated by humankind to an electric current, then the Counter Force is like creating an electrical box for it. When the current swells due to various factors...

The insurance mechanism acts as both the guardian and the executor, activating a segment of the population as "fuse" to trip the circuit breaker, preventing disasters from affecting all of humanity and playing a crucial protective role.

Chapter 277 Therefore, he became a god

The white-haired man is always like this: he does things that could be described as sacrificing himself to help others, but he never explains his purpose or motives to anyone. No one can understand his inner thoughts.

Initially, he too trusted others, starting as a humble volunteer, striving to bring happiness to those around him. His actions were no different from other volunteers: helping the weak, opposing injustice, upholding morality, refusing to succumb to violence, and not abusing violence...

But later, the man's heart gradually became twisted, and his body crumbled under the unbearable burden. The more he experienced and struggled, the more disappointed he became with the humanity he wanted to protect. Gradually, he stopped believing in 'common justice' and blindly pursued 'justice' itself, resorting to violence at all costs. In the end, he became a completely rampaging machine of justice, dependent solely on violence...

Later, he made a contract with Alaya to save a group of people during a disaster. He chose to make a contract with the Counter Force and continued to save others until the end of his life. However, he was not Human Order or remembered by anyone.

After his death, he became a guardian outside the timeline and unbound by the world. Unlike the Servant widely celebrated in other epics, legends, and historical stories, he Executor of the Counter Force.

They are just ordinary, nameless beings. The so-called Counter Force refers to the protective mechanism against crises, and the guardians can also be said to be permanent, year-round employees who ensure the continuation of the Earth and humanity.

These things were no different from what he experienced in his lifetime; the only way to save the world was through sacrifice, a choice made out of powerlessness, a choice that was not so bad.

But unexpectedly, this choice turned out to be the final choice, the only option.

He thought that becoming Servant would allow him to change things, but ironically, everything he did was no different from what he did in life: sacrificing a small number to bring peace to the majority. He used killing to stop killing, coldly eliminating any wrongdoing.

If it's a problem of the spread of biological viruses or plagues, then all carriers of the pathogens should be disposed of.

If it's a terrorist organization, then it's the assassination of its leader, even if they actually rose up in resistance because of oppression from imperial aggression.

Because the Counter Force is humanity's safety net, it will step in to resolve crises affecting all of humanity. Therefore, it will only face the most brutal scenes in the world, and when it reaches the point where it is summoned there, it means that there are no other ways to save the situation.

All the humans who appeared before him were destined to be killed; there was no other possibility of rescue.

After his death, as part of the Counter Force, he continues to complete various tasks, nipping any potential crisis for humanity in the bud. This behavior will continue in a cycle, repeating itself as long as humanity lives.

All of this contradicts his desire to save everyone, and he will continue doing these things against his conscience until the end of humanity. If he had to choose a time limit, he would choose forever.

Through constant repetition, facing various crises and enduring all kinds of suffering, a Heart of Steel has been forged and tempered.

The man, who was not good at expressing his inner feelings, gradually became cold and twisted, loathing the world and himself. As negative emotions filled his body, cracks began to appear in his Heart of Steel from the inside out.

He forgot why he initially had such an ideal, and was left with only endless regret and hatred for his naive past self.

Under these circumstances, he was summoned to his past, to Fuyuki City, the city where the Fifth Holy Grail War was held.

In this war, in different parallel worlds, there are different outcomes. Several times he personally killed the young Shirou Emiya, but nothing changed. From the moment he made the contract, he was destined to become a guardian.

It will break free from the timeline, losing its past, present, and future, coexisting with the Counter Force, and sharing life and death with humanity as a whole.

If it could have a profound impact on his younger self, it might also have a ripple effect on him, causing him to disappear.

But in the end, it all proved to be in vain. However, it was not a complete failure. In this war, he saw some precious memories that he had forgotten in his younger self.

With mixed feelings, he watched the young Shirou walk down a different path from his own. Then he felt relieved, bid farewell to the girl who had once saved his life and who held the Ruby necklace, and promised her that he would continue to do his best even as a guardian.

But even so, he could not escape the cruel tricks of fate. He discovered that even the man who changed his fate and went on to a different future was ultimately chosen by the Counter Force to become the swordsmith's body.

There are even parallel versions of themselves, which are constantly being incorporated into the entire Servant system.

It cannot be changed as long as the Throne of Heroes system exists, as long as the Counter Force exists, and as long as the Holy Grail exists.

Having come this far, and with no way to retreat, let's go even further. As a guardian, he attempted to change things once again. While signing a contract with Alaya, he also found an opportunity to have a conversation with Gaia.

He also made a contract with Gaia, becoming a contractor of both types of Counter Force, which led to more frequent work, but for him, it brought more opportunities.

He managed to retain all his memories, turning each summoning experience into opportunities to improve himself, and constantly exploring the world. Because he was outside the timeline, he experienced almost the entirety of Human History, from the beginning of the primitive era to the end when humanity was on the verge of extinction.
