Chapter 89
If the fire went too far, the consequences would probably be even more tragic than what Wuming is experiencing now.
At that point, we'll be completely at their mercy!
"In the name of Alaya? Fine."
Wei Gong felt that this guy was deliberately looking for trouble.
Back then, in his naivety, he signed a contract with Alaya, becoming a 007 worker, rushing to various Timeline to protect Human History.
After the final battle, Wei Gong finally got rid of the unscrupulous capitalist, only to be relentlessly exposed by Alaya.
Now, you want Alaya to witness the signing of the contract?
The two began to expend their magic power to sign a contract.
"Now, I ask Alaya to witness our covenant!"
"I, Merlin, forgo using my Noble Phantasm and will only use ordinary illusion magic. If I fail, I will willingly be Fountain of Youth's Drowning by my opponent, and be disposed of as they see fit!"
"I, Nameless, will fight Merlin alone, forbid the King of Heroes from assisting in the battle, and if I am defeated, I will allow him to leave and issue a public apology!"
A mysterious and complex Magecraft circle appeared, then quickly disappeared.
The contract is established!
Alaya, being Human Collective Consciousness that transcends the Grand, can naturally guarantee the fairness and impartiality of the contract.
I don't know if it's just my imagination.
Wei Gong felt as if a pair of eyes were watching him, and it seemed as if they wanted to reach out and touch him.
Good grief, you're not only making me sell my time and energy to work for you, but you're even going to take advantage of my body?
Gilgamesh jumped down from the lamppost, staring at him with extreme suspicion. "Are you sure I won't participate in this Holy Grail War?"
"King of Heroes, he's definitely trying to fool you! He killed you on the spot in Unlimited Blade Works, so why don't you cooperate with me!" Merlin didn't hesitate to sow discord.
If he can persuade the King of Heroes, his chances of winning will be much greater.
"Of course, I guarantee you yourself won't show up!"
Wei Gong readily agreed, then cautiously added, "Someone might try to use your power."
"Hmph, you want to borrow my power?"
Gilgamesh snorted coldly, brimming with boundless confidence, "With my strength, even simply borrowing power is enough to easily sweep through the entire Holy Grail War!"
"..."
Wei Gong didn't want to say anything more.
Hopefully, after watching the video, the other person will still be so confident.
The video has started playing.
The familiar voiceover notification sound popped up--
[I think I can finally tell you now, this is the story of Miyu and me up to this point.]
This line was actually the preview for the next episode in the Chaldea Extra Story of Unlimited Blade Works.
"You really know a lot of people," Gilgamesh, glancing sideways at the other man.
Just how many Timeline has this guy traveled through, and how many people has he formed connections with?
"Ahem, it's just so-so."
Wei Gong was slightly embarrassed.
Every time I watch the video, it feels like a Public Execution.
The most crucial point is...
Both of them knew his identity.
It's like playing your short video in front of all your roommates in the dorm!
I endured the embarrassment and continued watching--
[The world is heading towards destruction, and the only way to save it is to sacrifice her sister, who is the Holy Grail.]
[Should you choose the world, or the girl?]
[A certain man chooses to protect the world]
[A certain man chose to perpetuate his race]
[And I only pray for the happiness of that one and only person...]
"Hey, who would you choose?"
As Luo Ya listened to the narration, she turned to look at the girl next to her.
At this moment, Mordred, who was originally sharing a room with King Arthur, made a special trip to her room.
The two hit it off immediately, and the more they talked, the more they clicked, with a strange feeling of a predestined connection from a past life.
"Obviously, I'd choose Miyu!"
Mordred answered without hesitation.
If it were King Arthur, he would definitely choose to sacrifice the girl to save the world.
For that the Perfect King who doesn't understand human nature, sacrificing one person to save the majority is a decision that no one can stop.
"Yes, I'll choose Miyu too!"
Luo Ya became more and more satisfied with the other party, and added, "As Justice Partner, choosing to abandon someone means you are no longer just!"
"Yes, he will bear the sins of those who sacrificed themselves, and he will chill the hearts of others!"
Mordred nodded in agreement.
Did you really think she was so powerful during the Battle of Camlann that she could command a hundred followers and have countless people rebel against her?
In fact.
My dear Father King will not hesitate to sacrifice anyone to win this war!
Including herself!
That's why everyone became more and more terrified the more they followed her, fearing they would be used as a sacrifice.
Reality isn't just cold, hard addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division!
As soon as the video started, the comments section exploded with activity.
[Here it comes! Alaya is awesome, updating twice a week!]
[First Glance at <The Vow Under the Snow> -- My wife, Yukinoshita, was actually video-ed by Alaya?]
[Get lost! That's my wife! You need to see an eye doctor!]
[Good heavens, the Nameless One's sister is the Holy Grail! Doesn't this mean we can just breeze through the Holy Grail War?]
[Got it, that's the origin of Emiya's sister complex! Go Emiya, fight for your sister!]
Under the watchful eyes of countless onlookers.
The narration ended, and a young child and a bearded man driving and smoking appeared on the screen.
Listen carefully: to save some people, you must abandon others.
The man took a drag of his cigarette and exhaled it out the window, his face etched with the marks of time.
"Why abandon some people?" the boy asked, somewhat surprised.
Listen carefully: the only people a person can save through their own efforts are those who share their views.
The man exhaled another large puff of smoke and sighed heavily. "What seems like a matter of course is actually the definition of 'justice'."
These few simple words are filled with helplessness and sorrow.
"But shouldn't someone who's a Justice Partner save everyone?"
The young child, with a tender face and an innocent voice, said, "Most of the suffering in the world is due to the inadequacy of the person involved."
"If you're strong enough, you can save them all!"
These words stunned the man.
For a moment, I seemed completely at a loss for words.
He sighed heavily again, "You're still young. When you grow up, you'll realize that even if you become stronger, others will be stronger than you, unless you can easily defeat everyone!"
Seeing this, it becomes clear that the other party has experienced countless events and encountered numerous setbacks.
Luo Ya was extremely surprised. "Could this be the beginning of Emiya becoming nameless, walking through Human History, and saving everyone?"
"That's right! As long as you're strong enough, you can protect everything!"
Mordred's eyes were fixed on the toddler on the screen.
He was just a little boy, yet he had this awareness from the very beginning.
As expected of someone without a name!
The more she understood him, the more madly she fell for him.
Mordred was greatly encouraged and silently murmured to himself--
"As long as you're strong enough, you can get anything you want! Including snatching Nameless from my Father King!"
Nameless, you're the one who taught me this!
Continue watching the video.
Without hesitation, the man changed the subject and began to explain the purpose of his trip.
It is said that there is a family called [Shuoyue] that has existed for hundreds of years.
The man said in a deep voice, "What's strange is that we never see any children under the age of seven in their family. It's likely a belief in Divine Child, that is, the belief that children under seven are divine children who can grant any wish."
"So, you want to achieve your dream with the help of [the Divine Child]?" the child asked curiously.
"I have no idea whether that power can fulfill my dream."
The man sighed softly.
"Then let's be Justice Partner together, save the world, and save everyone!" The child revealed a bright and innocent smile.
The man paused for a moment, then sighed, "I've said it many times, I'm not Justice Partner!"
The discussion among onlookers was a source of amusement.
[Could this be considered an elderly Justice Partner, passing on that Justice Partner to a young child?]
Most of the suffering in the world stems from the inadequacy of the person involved— Emiya, you need to step up!
[The beginning was really heartwarming! Unfortunately, given Alaya's track record, the next part is definitely going to be angsty!]
[Damn it, I'll kill you first!]
Thousand! Search!:'Free.; Novel:.:, Skirt:2:,,5?.5?5?9',5;';3'".,0;?.0 Just then.
The heartwarming everyday conversation, which should have continued, came to an abrupt end.
Because a terrifying roar erupted ahead.
A jet-black energy vortex suddenly appeared and spread wildly in all directions.
It was like a gaping maw of an abyss, swallowing everything whole!
Fuyuki City's unique "nuclear peace" has arrived yet again!
Without hesitation, the man said, "Get in the car quickly, let's go straight there! This is a disaster that no human can stop; it might affect the entire country!"
"There are so many people waiting for us to help them, are you just going to give up like this?"
The toddler called out anxiously.
