The feeling of a soul being extracted from a body by a spell would definitely not be pleasant, but compared to other people who only had one life, Darnic, who possessed the 'Soul Reincarnation Spell', was already BUG enough. As for comfort, that was no longer within his consideration. Anyway, every time the transfer was successful, his soul would be damaged, so he wouldn't care about these things. Of course, his obsession with the 'Yggdmillennia' family would never disappear, because this obsession had been completely etched into his soul.
In the past, every time the spell was activated, his soul would transfer from his current body to the body of another person who had the same spell. Then, his soul would completely crush the original owner's soul with the help of the spell, and finally, with his soul as the main one, and with some soul fragments of the original owner mixed in, a new personality would be formed.
But this time, as soon as the spell was activated, he sensed that something was wrong.
The suction of the spell seemed to be weaker than usual, and when he tried to enter Lancer body, the 'Otherworld Flower' carved on the other party's chest actually suddenly bloomed.
'Impossible!! This thing obviously has no magical power and is not linked to the magical circuits on that man's body. And I clearly already destroyed a part of that painting...'
Sensing that something was wrong, he tried to get away from Lancer body. He would even rather possess a 'homunculus' right now, because Lancer situation was simply too bizarre.
He had been reincarnated several times, and he knew the feeling of 'death' better than anyone. And at this moment, he felt as if a scythe was placed on his neck...
'No! I can't die! I absolutely cannot die! What will happen to Yggdmillennia if I die! I absolutely cannot die before I break that 'prophecy'!!'
He tried to wave his arms and shout loudly, but unfortunately, there was no reaction at all.
But at this moment, Fiore, who was standing beside Lancer, suddenly frowned and began to look around.
'Fiore?! This is great!! With the bloodline of the Yggdmillennia family, maybe I don't need a spell to transfer...'
He flapped his arms, trying to get closer to Fiore, but just as he was about to touch Fiore's body, the suction behind him suddenly increased.
At the same time, he heard a cold snort in his ear.
'Hmph!'
'No!!'
Darnic, who had no time to react, widened his eyes and let out a wail, and then completely turned into 'fragments'.
This 'farce' that no one had watched finally came to an end...
After finally entering the Yggdmillennia family's castle, the group was led by a homunculus towards the command room.
There was no doubt that the situation at this time was too chaotic. Only Darnic, the commander-in-chief, could probably figure out what had happened, but just as everyone was walking towards the command room, Lancer heart suddenly trembled.
'Ugh~!'
That feeling of palpitations made him involuntarily cover his chest and stop.
"What's wrong?"
Li Shuwen, who had been following behind Lancer, was the first to notice that something was wrong with Lancer and hurried to his side, and Fiore, who was at the very front of the team because she was in a hurry, couldn't help but turn around. Then she widened her eyes, because of the angle, she happened to see the 'Otherworld Flower' with Lancer heart as its center quietly blooming.
Fiore, who had seen Lancer upper body more than once, naturally knew about that strange tattoo on Lancer chest, but the other party had never explained it, so she naturally didn't feel comfortable asking, as it was very likely related to the other party's privacy. But she never expected to see that 'Otherworld Flower' blooming today.
But at this moment, she suddenly felt a chill.
'What's going on?'
But the confusion was fleeting, because being under the protection of the three Servants at this time, she didn't think anyone could harm her.
And Lancer, who was covering his heart and kneeling on one knee, was also in a daze. But unlike others, he knew what had happened, but it was precisely because of this that he was even more confused.
「Killed a Grand Magus (pseudo)·Darnic, gained points: 3200」
「Hidden Title·Hero in the Darkness————Activated」
「Message————No! This is my body! This is mine!! I can't die! For the sake of the Yggdmillennia family, I can't die!!」
「Side quest can be completed————The Revival of Yggdmillennia」
Lancer already had some understanding of the so-called 'side quests'. They were usually triggered when he came into contact with a character who could change the world but the progress was slow. But this time was different from the 'Hero Academia' time. Lancer had no idea about the so-called 'plot', so he didn't deliberately look for 'side quests', but he didn't expect one to appear at this time.
And based on the known information, he just killed Darnic?
There was no doubt that Lancer hated that man. That man who always looked at him with strange eyes and even tricked him with a Command Spell. If it weren't for the 'Holy Grail War', he would have found an opportunity to get rid of him long ago, but the other party died in such an abrupt way, so what about the battlefield?
He didn't even have time to respond to Fiore. He rushed straight to the window, and the scene outside the window made him breathe a sigh of relief.
Although he didn't know how Darnic did it, 'Vlad III' was still fighting with Karna at this time.
But what should he do next?
Lancer had originally followed Fiore back here in the hopes of finding a way to temporarily stop the Red Faction's attack, but who would have thought that a Master of the Black Faction would die on the spot...
Li Shuwen was the first to notice that Lancer aura had temporarily returned to normal, so he chose not to say a word, and Jeanne, as an outsider, did not say a word after entering the castle. As for Chiron, he seemed to want to say something, but due to his position, he ultimately chose to remain silent. Only Fiore, who had not yet figured out the specific situation, was still by Lancer side.
"Mr. Lancer, are you alright?"
"I'm fine. Let's keep going."
Lancer appearance of wanting to speak but not was a clear indication that things were not as simple as he said, but Fiore weighed her options and felt that her family was more important than her curiosity.
So she didn't ask any more questions and nodded, continuing to walk towards the command room, but when they arrived in front of the command room, they found that it seemed to be a bit chaotic?
A bad premonition instantly appeared in her mind.
She completely ignored the people behind her. The 'Magic Gauntlets' behind her instantly reached their maximum state, and she herself swayed in the air due to inertia, but she was completely unaware of how strange her current situation was. In her eyes, there was only the command room in front of her, which was dyed 'red' with blood.
In the middle of countless homunculus corpses lay Darnic, who was almost cut in half...
