Chapter 776 A long night

Although Tohsaka Rin had imagined many scenarios in which she and her sister would meet again, she had to say that this was the most embarrassing one.

"Speaking of which...why are we here?"

Rin Tosaka coughed and looked around. She was naturally very familiar with Fuyuki City. She could tell at a glance that this was near the old residential area of ​​Fuyuki City. But you have to know that she was in an office building in the new urban area just now?

"This is the characteristic of imaginary number magic. I can open a channel from any space and then teleport. Because I have been watching my sister, I was able to rescue her so quickly."

"Well...thank you..."

Although Tohsaka Rin just asked casually, Sakura quickly gave the answer, but upon hearing this answer, Tohsaka Rin's heart sank. You must know that teleportation is already a magic close to the level of magic among modern magicians. I really didn’t expect that Sakura could use this level of magic so easily. I have to say that it was still a big shock to Tohsaka Rin. of.

"Is that your ASSASSIN?"

So Tohsaka Rin also hurriedly changed the subject and looked at the girl standing behind Sakura. I have to say that even from Tohsaka Rin's point of view, this girl's dress is quite strange. She finally understands why ARCHER has a hard time describing the other person. It's really like this... I really don't know what to do. explain.

Behind Sakura was a girl who looked slightly older than Sakura, with blond hair and red eyes. She had dazzling long blond hair and wings-like ears on her head. Of course, as a heroic spirit, this isn't actually that strange, but the strangest thing is not her appearance, but her clothes.

I saw the girl wearing an outfit similar to a one-piece swimsuit, with a holster on her waist, and holding a huge firearm in her hand. Coupled with the long-sleeved jacket and black beret the girl was wearing, it gave people the impression that More like a soldier.

In addition, what makes Tohsaka Rin even more puzzled is that the girl's clothes are also engraved with patterns of skulls and warhammers... Is this the mark of some religion?

If you say it's an ancient religion, isn't this equipment a bit too modern?

"a ha ha ha………"

Hearing Tohsaka Rin's question, Sakura scratched her cheek in embarrassment.

"This...actually something went wrong..."

"question?"

"Yes, when I summoned the servant, maybe the medium I used was wrong, which caused the servant's spiritual base to become abnormal, which is why it became like this..."

"What medium did you use to summon such a servant?"

Hearing Sakura's answer, Tohsaka Rin was also dumbfounded, while Sakura smiled bitterly and shifted her gaze - in fact, the medium Sakura used to summon the servants was not an ancient holy relic. Although the El-Melloi family also came into contact with many holy relics when they controlled the archaeological discipline, Sakura did not use those ancient relics. Instead, she chose to leave them for herself, Lenis and Fei before Duanmu Huai left. Ole's amulet - the cross of skull and warhammer serves as a medium.

Perhaps it was because Sakura wasn't too interested in the Holy Grail War, so she just wanted to see if she could use this medium to summon servants.

I didn't expect that such a servant would be summoned...

"Anyway, thank you for saving me."

Tohsaka Rin didn't ask any more questions. After all, he was Sakura's servant. If he asked too many questions, he would inevitably be suspected of seeking information. Of course, she was not surprised at all as to why Sakura discovered Tohsaka Rin. The other party had ASSASSIN who was the best at tracking. It was estimated that ASSASSIN might have been following her while she and others were exploring.

"Speaking of which, what is that black shadow? Sister, do you know?"

Sakura also retracted her gaze at this moment and looked at Tohsaka Rin seriously again, while Tohsaka Rin shook her head.

"No, I have never heard of anything like this appearing in the Holy Grail War, but I am certain that it is definitely not a Servant."

Yes, as masters, both Tohsaka Rin and Sakura can be sure of this. The boiling, turbid black mud that seemed to have self-awareness was not the Noble Phantasm of a certain servant, but more like some kind of weird mysterious life form.

"Anyway, it seems that the thing that attacked humans in Fuyuki and caused them to disappear was that thing. Obviously, it must be related to the master of RIDER."

Tohsaka Rin's investigation was not in vain. Dozens of students disappeared, but there was no information or clues. After witnessing the black shadow's attack, Tohsaka Rin suspected that the black shadow might be the mastermind behind the incident. After all, even the servants cannot escape its devouring, so ordinary people may be completely eaten by the black shadow before they can react.

What on earth is that?

Tohsaka Rin didn't know, and neither did Sakura, but it was obvious that it was no longer time to fight each other purely for the Holy Grail War.

"So, Sakura."

Tohsaka Rin took a deep breath, looked at his sister and said.

"I hope that I can temporarily sign an alliance contract with you, stop fighting temporarily, fight against the black shadow and RIDER, and eliminate the threat. What do you think?"

Faced with Tohsaka Rin's request, Sakura answered without hesitation.

"I reject."

"……………………"

Perhaps Sakura's rejection was so straightforward that Tohsaka Rin and Archer were a little dumbfounded for a moment.

"My sister is saying this as the head of the Tosaka family and the manager of this land. If this is the case, then I will not agree to my sister's request. I hate the Tosaka family who abandoned me, so if my sister is... As the head of the Tohsaka family, I will not agree to anything no matter what you say."

Sakura stared at Tohsaka Rin quietly. Although her voice was not loud, the firm will contained in her soft voice was something that even Tosaka Rin could feel - obviously, Xiao Sakura Sakura really hates the Tohsaka family. Of course, from her perspective, Tohsaka Rin can understand.

"However, if my sister asks for help as a sister, then I can consider it."

Sakura said this and blinked at Tosaka Rin, who closed her eyes and was silent for a moment, then took a deep breath and opened her eyes again to look at Sakura.

"So, can you lend me your power, Sakura?"

"certainly."

This time, Sakura smiled and answered quickly.

"I'm happy to help my sister."

Then she spoke.

At the same time, Duanmuhuai and his party also left Einzbern's castle and returned to Fuyuki City.

"How is Illya's condition?"

Looking at Irisviel walking out of the room, Duanmuhuai asked, while Irisviel's expression was a little heavy.

"Illya...is indeed my child."

"? What are you talking about now?"

Facing Irisviel's sudden words, Duanmuhuai was confused, while Irisviel shook her head.

"To be honest, I have always been thinking that maybe Illya is not my daughter, maybe this is just a memory forged by Grandpa Ahad to control her. After all, when most artificial people are created, their memories are blank. , it is easy to be manipulated. But that child...she is not an artificial person, but a child who was born as a human and underwent transformation..."

"I see."

Hearing this, Duanmu Huai nodded.

"So what you're saying is that because Illya has undergone transformation, she can't be an artificial human, right?"

"…………"

Irisviel nodded, and the reason was actually very clear, because the androids were designed before they were created, so there was no need to reshape them. Only humans have the need to transform, and the Einzbern family's technical strength in this area...well, Irisviel naturally knows it.

"The child's body has been severely modified, and she has very little life left. Fortunately, Miss Medea is here...at least half of her body can be restored, but I'm afraid it will be difficult for her to grow again in the future."

"What does this have to do with it? Illya is only over ten years old. She hasn't reached the developmental stage yet. She might grow up in the future."

"...That child is already eighteen years old."

"……………Aha??"

I have to say, this really stunned Duanmu Huai.

"Are you kidding? You only look ten years old?"

"Because of Einzbern's transformation, her body stopped growing... I'm afraid the child will have to live like this for the rest of her life."

Good guy, what kind of Tianshan child grandmother is this?

Duanmu Huai silently complained in his heart, and at this moment, Irisviel looked at Duanmu Huai seriously again.

"MASTER, there is actually one more thing. I want to explain to you that we have discovered the abnormal point of the problem."

"oh?"

Hearing Irisviel's words, Duanmu Huai immediately cheered up.

"real?"

"Yes, I only found out about this after communicating with Ilia."

According to Illya, she and Illya briefly communicated when Illya woke up. At that time, Illya told Illya in confusion that she had not recovered any Servants. Soul, so Illya wanted to ask if Irisviel had recovered this part of the soul.

This naturally surprised Irisviel. She was not surprised that Illyasviel was the Little Holy Grail. But the problem is that from yesterday to now, if nothing else, at least they have killed CASTER with their own hands, as well as the previous Archer. As the Little Holy Grail, Illya should have recovered the souls of at least two servants.

However, Illya said that she had not received any of them and thought Irisviel had snatched them away.

But Irisviel knew that she had not recovered the souls of her servants.

Then the problem arises.

Where have the souls of CASTER and that shining golden ARCHER gone?

"Could he be back in the Great Holy Grail?"

After listening to Irisviel's report, Duanmu Huai frowned and asked, but Irisviel shook her head.

"It's absolutely impossible. After the Third Holy Grail War, some of the functions of the Greater Holy Grail were lost, so starting from the Fourth Holy Grail War, I will be used as the container of the Lesser Holy Grail to recover the souls of the servants. Logically speaking. It is said that the souls of the defeated servants in the Holy Grail War must be recovered by me or Illya. If neither of us receives it, then it means... In this Holy Grail War, it should be And a small chalice!”

"Good guy, is this thing wholesale or retail? Do you have any clues?"

"No."

Irisviel shook her head.

"The technology for making the Small Holy Grail is only known by the Einzbern family, and the adjustment of the artificial Holy Grail takes time, and it is impossible to complete it in a short time. Frankly speaking, if Ilia and I hadn't recovered our souls, I wouldn't even think about the possibility..."

"Now what?"

"There must be breath when absorbing souls. I plan to join forces with Miss Medea to conduct an entire scan of Fuyuki City from this aspect. If any abnormalities can be found..."

"I see."

Since Irisviel already has a solution, Duanmuhuai will naturally not stop it.

"Then just go ahead and do it."

After all, he just needs to concentrate on being a thug and leave things like using his brain to others.
