Beneath a halo that blocked out the sky, The Enlightened One sat on a lotus pedestal, struck the Servant in front of him in the abdomen with one palm, and beat the Servant into a pile of spirit origin that dissipated into the world.
At this moment, Kirei Kotomine, his hands stained with blood, unconsciously revealed an expression of pleasure, walked to The Enlightened One, bowed to him as a disciple, and confessed.
"Master! This disciple has failed again!"
The Enlightened One sat on the lotus pedestal, looked at Kirei Kotomine in front of him, shook his head, and then spoke to Kirei Kotomine with a voice that was both ethereal and deep. To the ears of others, this voice sounded both contradictory and harmonious.
After hearing the words of The Enlightened One, Kirei Kotomine was stunned, then looked at the barrier in the sky that even The Enlightened One could not break.
"Is all of this fake? Then! Where is the Holy Grail? Master!"
"Foolish child!"
The Enlightened One sighed, then spread his palm to display a plant seed in front of Kirei Kotomine.
"This is the seed of the twin Bodhi tree. If you can grow it in this Seat of the Summit, then you will be able to understand everything!"
Then, The Enlightened One did not speak further, closed his eyes, and ascended into the sky with the lotus pedestal, leaving Kirei Kotomine, who was clutching the seed, standing in place in a daze.
At this moment, in the outside world.
The experiment had now been going on for a full nine and a half hours, and according to the device's acceleration of thought, a full 950 years had passed in the Spiritron World!
Da Vinci depressedly propped her chin on the command tower, staring at the data constantly scrolling down on the big screen.
"Is it going to fail? Why hasn't Rin started acting yet?"
Da Vinci was full of questions, but of course, no one could answer them for her. However, judging by the dim light emitted by the hundreds of magic furnaces functioning as the spiritron computer underground, this experiment could not last much longer.
Located on the lowest level of the Spiritron World, Kiritsugu Emiya, who looked much younger, only about 10 years old, mercilessly fired a fatal bullet from the rifle in his hand, breaking the limbs of a classmate he had lived with day and night for years.
"The purpose of ambushing me!"
The student on the ground lay in his own pool of blood with a calm face and spoke to Kiritsugu Emiya.
"The Holy Grail! For the quota of the Holy Grail War, only 10 of us can challenge the ten levels above. I was just trying to eliminate competitors in advance."
Kiritsugu Emiya frowned. For some reason, his mind was completely devoid of any memories other than his school life in the past few years. Upon hearing the word Holy Grail, his heart suddenly surged with a palpitation, making Kiritsugu Emiya urgently ask.
"What is the Holy Grail?"
"The Holy Grail is a tool that can realize all wishes. Have you lost your memory? Hahahaha, that's great!"
"Why do you say that?"
"I'll tell you the cruel truth! Humanity is extinct. We are currently in the last sanctuary on the moon, and we are all qualified candidates chosen to participate in this final Holy Grail War! And we must ascend to the Seat of the Summit, obtain the Holy Grail's recognition, and save the world through the Holy Grail!"
With the student's narration, the sealed 'memories' awakened. In Kiritsugu Emiya's memories, humanity on Earth had been completely wiped out due to resource issues, and those who survived were merely struggling to survive on the surface.
And the Mages Association on Earth finally discovered the Holy Grail located on the moon. Because there was an untouchable barrier protecting the Holy Grail, the Mages Association invented this ritual after research, hoping that someone could pick up the Holy Grail and save the world, and he was one of the last batch of people selected.
Having acquired the 'memories', Kiritsugu Emiya raised the rifle in his hand, aimed at the student's head on the ground, and pulled the trigger without hesitation, then walked straight toward the teaching building with the rifle.
"The Holy Grail! Save the world!"
The eyes of Kiritsugu Emiya, carrying the rifle, were full of determination.
In the Spiritron World, in a giant tree in a beautiful garden, Rin threw away the grimoire in her hand as if venting, then jumped down from the mountain-like pile of books.
Walking out of the giant tree and bathing in the long-lost sunlight, Rin shouted happily to the sky.
"Over 900 years! I've finally finished reading! Ah~~!"
After venting, Rin swiped her hand in front of her chest, and a light screen appeared out of thin air in front of Rin. Then, all the experimental processes and records of the past nine hundred-plus years were displayed in front of Rin.
Rin skipped the process in the front and flipped directly to the end. After checking, Rin sighed.
"Seriously! Can't you make it easier for me! A cycle every 50 years, this is the 19th time and the goal still hasn't been reached. However, Kirei is really amazing, he actually got The Enlightened One over here and even transcended in the first cycle!"
Then, Rin walked to the grass in the garden, waved her hand, and a picnic blanket and a large amount of food and drinks appeared on the grass. Rin sat lazily on the grass, eating the long-lost food, while one hand began to continuously operate the light screen in front of her.
"Come on! For this last time, let me guide you all!"
Countless students ran out of the teaching building in panic, fleeing in all directions, while behind them, the blood-soaked Kiritsugu Emiya calmly carried his rifle and expressionlessly fired hot bullets into one student after another.
"This is to save the world!"
Rin, who was observing the experimenters with the help of the system, saw this scene and couldn't help coughing out the food in her mouth, then picked up the fruit juice and took a few big gulps.
"As expected of Kiritsugu! Truly decisive in killing!"
Kiritsugu Emiya, who had finished the slaughter, put down the rifle with the hot barrel, then took out a cigarette and a lighter from the pocket of a teacher on the ground, walked to the rooftop, and silently lit the cigarette, looking up at the huge island floating in the sky.
"Is that the upper level?"
Rin, looking at Kiritsugu Emiya through the monitor, grinned, pressed a few buttons on the light screen in front of her, and then the back of Kiritsugu Emiya's hand felt hot as three command spells appeared on Kiritsugu Emiya's hand.
Then, Servant Kiritsugu, who was drinking and chatting with the King of Conquerors in front of the endless sea created by spirit origin, was stunned, then turned to the King of Conquerors and said.
"It seems it's my turn to appear!"
After speaking, Servant Kiritsugu turned into a burst of light and dissipated beside the endless sea.
The King of Conquerors raised the wine cup in his hand and drank it down, then looked at the endless sea in front of him and shouted loudly.
"Rin! Let me appear quickly! I've almost rusted over these few hundred years! Hahahaha."
Kiritsugu Emiya looked at the Servant who was exactly the same as him beside him, frowned, and then walked toward the elevator leading to the upper level in his memory with the Servant Kiritsugu without caring.
"The Holy Grail! This time, I will definitely obtain you!"
At this moment, Rin was in a pitch-black, dilapidated space where countless abandoned data of the NPCs of this world were piled up, but Rin didn't care about these hellish scenes at all and slowly came to the core of this space.
Then, Rin, who arrived at the core of the space, waved her hand, and a huge storm appeared, revealing a black sphere buried by countless wrecks.
"System!"
With this call, Rin, who had been standing in place for a long time, finally nodded with relief, took out a fragment emitting a soft white light, and gently placed it on the sphere. Soon, the fragment emitting light merged into the black sphere.
Then, the black sphere began to twist and deform continuously, and finally, a young girl emitting a soft white light appeared before Rin.
Having confirmed that this world only had Gudao and not Gudako, Rin used the system to mold the young girl before her into the likeness of Gudako, following the body prepared on the outside.
"Personality ready! The external body is also prepared! Come on! Gudako, show me your potential. I hope you can absorb the system and gain the qualifications to learn a certain magical index magic!"
