The Tohsaka family's long-held ambition was to reach the Root.

However, the Servants and Chat Group members present basically all knew the true nature of the Root.

Putting aside the Counter Force blocking the way, it was fundamentally impossible for humans to reach the Root.

Even if Su Luo sent Tokiomi Tohsaka to the Root, Tokiomi Tohsaka was just a Magus with rather unremarkable talent. How could he possibly withstand the immense information and power that the Root would bring?

Chances were, the moment he reached the Root, Tokiomi Tohsaka would explode and die from being unable to bear the endless knowledge the Root would bestow upon him.

In other words, what Su Luo was doing now was simply sending Tokiomi Tohsaka to his death.

And he even said to the man himself, "Your wife and daughter, I will look after them. You need not worry."

How could they not look at each other with strange expressions given such a strong sense of déjà vu!

But they knew this; Tokiomi Tohsaka did not.

When he heard Su Luo say he would use the Holy Grail to send him to the Root, a surge of intense joy flooded his heart.

He looked at Su Luo in disbelief, unable to believe his own ears for a moment.

"Is this true? Mr. Su!? Are you really willing to use the Holy Grail to send me to the Root?" Tokiomi Tohsaka couldn't help but confirm with Su Luo.

"Of course. As for the Holy Grail, I have plenty. It's no problem to use one to send you to the Root."

As he spoke, a golden ripple suddenly appeared before Su Luo.

A Holy Grail rolled out from it and landed at Tokiomi Tohsaka's feet.

Su Luo wasn't lying.

Ever since his Gate of Babylon evolved into Myriad Worlds Collector through the Transmigrator's Treasure Bag.

His collection space no longer just contained the original forms of all Noble Phantasms.

It included everything that had ever appeared in the Type-Moon world, including their original forms.

To put it simply, his current collection vault contained everything from small firearms and Mystic Codes to the weapons of Heroic Spirits.

Naturally, this included different versions of the Holy Grail.

Anyway, taking out a Holy Grail to send Tokiomi Tohsaka to the Root would automatically replenish a new Holy Grail in his collection space, incurring no cost.

Furthermore, doing so could gain him Mato Sakura's favor and incidentally eliminate Tokiomi Tohsaka.

It was a win-win situation, and there was no reason for him to refuse.

Looking at the familiar golden ripple, Tokiomi Tohsaka's eyelids twitched.

As Gilgamesh's Master, he was all too familiar with this.

Although he didn't know how Su Luo obtained the Gate of Babylon, the matter of going to the Root was his primary concern.

"Holy Grail, send Tokiomi Tohsaka to the Root."

As Su Luo's voice fell.

The Holy Grail automatically suspended in the air.

Vast Magic Power opened a spatial ripple next to Su Luo and Tokiomi Tohsaka.

Seeing this, Tokiomi Tohsaka was too excited to speak.

However, he wasn't completely overwhelmed by this immense surprise. Before leaving, he didn't forget to express his gratitude to Su Luo.

"Thank you so much, Mr. Su!"

"I, Tokiomi Tohsaka, will never forget your kindness!"

"I, Tokiomi Tohsaka, swear in the name of the fifth head of the Tohsaka family that the Tohsaka family will be Mr. Su's strongest backing in the future. When I return from the Root, I will express my gratitude to you again!"

"And please, Mr. Su, take care of my wife and daughter while I am away. Thank you very much." Tokiomi Tohsaka promised solemnly.

Seeing this, Su Luo felt a little embarrassed.

I'm pushing you onto a path of certain death, and you're thanking me in return? That's rather awkward.

"Don't worry, I will take care of your family," Su Luo said, forcing a smile and shaking Tokiomi Tohsaka's hand with a strange expression.

"I entrust them to you." After saying that, Tokiomi Tohsaka turned and walked into the spatial ripple without hesitation.

The next moment, the spatial ripple dissipated.

The castle returned to its original state.

Su Luo gave Melly a look.

Melly instantly understood and used Magecraft to put Mato Sakura to sleep.

Seeing this, Su Luo and the others could no longer suppress their laughter, their lips curling upwards.

The only ones present who were clueless were likely Irisviel and Frieren, who had only recently joined the Chat Group.

Seeing the smiles on everyone's faces, Frieren curiously asked, "What's wrong? You all seem so happy?"

"Let me tell you..." Kaguya Houraisan leaned over to Frieren's ear and briefly explained the situation.

After hearing Kaguya Houraisan's explanation, Frieren's expression remained as calm as still water.

Her gaze towards Su Luo was as if she was saying, "I never expected you to be this kind of person."

Chapter 37: Organizing the Spoils, Family Contract

"Cough, cough..." Su Luo coughed lightly, calming himself.

"In conclusion, the Holy Grail War has ended, and our mission is complete. You all should rest here for the night, and we'll have a banquet to celebrate our victory tonight."

Everyone nodded in agreement.

As the android maid began to busy herself in the kitchen, Su Luo escorted Mato Sakura back to her room to rest.

He then returned to the main hall to transfer Command Spells with Wang Xiaomei and the others.

Wang Xiaomei and the others had already communicated with their Servants. As expected, none of the Servants were interested in seeing other worlds with them.

Although another world held some allure for them.

Compared to Su Luo, it was far less appealing.

The banquet lasted for over an hour. Wang Xiaomei and the others declined the offer to stay and rest.

After all, with so many people present, they would feel too self-conscious to do anything they wanted, and staying there any longer would be pointless.

So, after a brief discussion, they all expressed their desire to return.

Seeing this, Wang Xiaomei submitted the mission to the Chat Group.

[Ding! Group Leader Wang Xiaomei submitted a mission.]

[Mission Content 1: End the Holy Grail War (Completed)]

[Mission Reward: Wang Xiaomei × 7000 points + 3 Golden Treasure Chests, Su Luo × 11000 points + 3 Golden Treasure Chests...]

[Mission Content 2: Eliminate All the World's Evil (Completed)]

[Mission Reward: Su Luo × 200000 points + 3 Platinum Treasure Chests]

With the mission submitted, Wang Xiaomei and the others returned to their respective worlds.

Su Luo opened the chat group panel.

Even though they had just returned to their original worlds, the Chat Group became exceptionally active.

[Wang Xiaomei]: That's not right! Why do I have a thousand fewer points than you all!

[Su Luo]: Hmm... Perhaps it's because I killed Cú Chulainn and didn't count you for that kill?

[Wang Xiaomei]: ...I'm going to cry.

[Lumine]: Big Brother, weren't you just observing from the sidelines? Then you went to deal with All the World's Evil, so why do you have so many points?

[Kaguya Houraisan]: What do you think? The Servants were summoned by Luo, and he even poached three Masters from the Black Faction to our side. He single-handedly cut the difficulty of the entire Holy Grail War from hard mode to easy mode. Isn't it only right that he gets so many points for this contribution!

[Frieren]: There was still difficulty. That guy in golden armor at the end was very difficult to deal with. If he had unleashed his full power, it's hard to say who would have won.

[Saeko Busujima]: That's not an issue. Even if he had used his full power, we would have had ways to resist. However, this Holy Grail War was truly a good place for experience.

Looking at the active group members in the Chat Group, Su Luo chuckled and began to organize the spoils from this event.

First were the rewards obtained from the Chat Group.

Two hundred thousand points and three Platinum Treasure Chests, three Golden Treasure Chests.

Su Luo first used all two hundred thousand points to strengthen his [Super Adaptation] Trait.

Unlike last time, with all two hundred thousand points invested this time, Su Luo clearly felt a level-up in his abilities.

Although the Trait didn't break through its limitations to reach a higher level, it had shortened the path significantly.

Then came the six Treasure Chests.

Su Luo didn't hesitate and opened them all.

[Ding! Congratulations to group member for obtaining Family Contract]

[Ding! Congratulations to group member for obtaining Resurrection Divine Art]

[Ding! Congratulations to host for obtaining...]

After the system prompts stopped, Su Luo took a look at what he had obtained.

Most of the items obtained this time were not very useful.

Su Luo had always been open-minded about the balance of luck and misfortune, and had nothing more to say.

What piqued his interest were the Family Contract and the Resurrection Divine Art.

The former was similar to the contract a deity in DanMachi would sign with their Familia members.

It could enhance the strength of the contracted individual and raise the upper limit of the Familia members.

As long as Familia members were willing to put in the effort, they would definitely be rewarded.

At the same time, the more people who signed the contract and the stronger they were, the more Su Luo's own strength would increase.

This point was somewhat different from the Divine Blessing in DanMachi.

What further pleased him was that as long as a contract was signed, even if a family member was killed, he could revive them through the power of the contract.

The Resurrection Divine Art he obtained later required a trace of remnant soul before he could revive the deceased.

Compared to that, the Family Contract was, to a certain extent, more useful than the Resurrection Divine Art he obtained later.

Seeing this, Su Luo let out a long sigh and then began to check his gains in the Trait system.

"Open system."

[Host: Su Luo] [Bound Special Individuals: Morgan (Servant), Medea (Servant)... (Total 41 people)] [Exclusive Traits: Resurrection Divine Art (Gold), Family Contract (Gold)...]

"Woohoo~ This mission added seventeen more people. It's time to get some more traits." Su Luo rubbed his hands excitedly.

He then began to acquire traits.

[Ding! Congratulations to the host for obtaining the trait Tiamat's Favor (Gold)]

[Ding! Congratulations to the host for obtaining the trait Rune (Orange)]

[Ding! Congratulations to the host for obtaining...]

A series of notification sounds echoed in Su Luo's mind once more.

A moment later, Su Luo's gaze fell directly on the trait with the highest level, a hint of surprise flashing in his eyes.

"This is the first time I've drawn a trait similar to the [Grand Caster Succubus] trait, and it's also related to Tiamat."

[Tiamat's Favor] was, in essence, a trait that increased Tiamat's affection.

Upon obtaining this trait, Tiamat would shift from loving the children she created to doting solely on Su Luo.
