Chapter 1920: The moment you get the Holy Grail, you are destined to go astray
The second night was spent peacefully.
"How many are there in total? Is anyone going to count them?"
Saito tiredly rested against the village wall and asked the people around him.
The sun has risen and the demons have been wiped out.
The weird thing is.......
The moment they were exposed to sunlight, after the demons were killed, all the remaining corpse fragments disappeared, along with the disgusting smell in the air, as if... they
It's like it never existed.
"It's the same as last night... In terms of quantity, it's probably more than three hundred." Ryoma also breathed heavily and touched the head of Miss Aaron, who was lying on his lap and had fallen asleep.
brain.
"Fortunately... we should at least be lucky that these guys won't leave their disgusting corpses and smell here."
Shannan Keisuke smiled bitterly.
His strength is not outstanding among a group of people, and he fights relatively hard. Even if the five-meter-tall Demon doesn't have any intelligence, even if his movements are a little slow, he is definitely not an easy opponent to deal with.
"...Everyone, let's go back and have a rest first. We just want to make that guy Takasugi work a little harder, and..."
"Hopefully there won't be more of them tonight."
Zuo Cun looked even more tired than last night.
...
"When something seems to happen in a certain pattern, don't doubt it. There is a pattern."
There was unquestionable certainty in Da Vinci's voice.
"There is no doubt that there will definitely be more ghosts tonight, and they may be stronger... The data I collected over the past two days shows that the ghosts that appeared in the two days have different intensities.
, the intensity on the second day was obviously stronger than that on the first day.”
"You'd better ask the person in charge of the Mountain God Festival why the closer the Mountain God Festival is, the stronger the monsters encountered at the mountain gate."
Da Vinci felt helpless and had no good solution.
Is it possible to transfer Fujimaru Ritsuka back to Reiko now? But they haven't even investigated the most basic things about this singularity.
Unless it is a situation like Shinjuku's, a singularity of this scale will definitely shake up human ethics, and it is necessary to eliminate it.
"I don't have a clue right now, but just sitting there waiting for the Mountain God Festival would be too..."
Lawrence covered his head, looking a little helpless.
This singularity was not friendly to her at all. It was the first time she encountered a singularity that gave her a kick.
Moreover, it would be more difficult for her to investigate something if she was not at the singularity point.
"I'll ask."
Fujimaru Ritsuka also looked a little anxious.
It has never been her style to sit back and wait for the truth, but now...it seems like she can't do anything.
This is the most worrying one.
"Don't be so anxious, Ms. Fujimaru."
Ezuna came over and placed a cup of tea in front of Fujimaru Ritsuka.
"I understand that you are anxious, and Mr. Samura is also anxious, but sometimes it may be necessary to calm down in order to find a way to solve the problem."
"...I'm just a little uncomfortable with it. My previous life was always accompanied by...a little anxiety. After all, some things are urgent."
Pursing his lips, Fujimaru Ritsuka sighed softly, picked up the tea and took a sip.
The tea is delicious and has an aroma similar to cherry blossoms.
"Nothing will happen to our village."
Ezuna smiled.
"With Mr. Samura and all of you, no matter how tough the enemy is, we will never be our opponent."
"Everyone in the village has always been protected in this way. It is precisely because of this that we can feel the so-called...happiness."
A trace of confusion and helplessness flashed across Shiina's eyes.
Fujimaru Ritsuka did not capture this scene.
"Is that guy Zuomura...protecting the happiness of others?"
Lawrence in Chaldea sat on the chair in the control room and sighed.
It's still the same as before...
I found a new way out, and then forged this road with my own hands, but failed in the end.
What he did in this singularity was exactly the same as what he did during his lifetime.
There are also the Mibu wolves, they are basically the same.
Although I don’t know who actually created this singularity, but...
At least it's well made.
It is different from the previous singularities that were full of suffering, although it is still a singularity.
But perhaps it is because it is so gentle and happy that the people in the singularity do not seem to notice it, nor does Fujimaru Ritsuka notice it - such happiness seems a bit false and wishful thinking.
"It's fake, it's fake after all..."
Lawrence sighed.
It's like a broken dream, being pieced together and reassembled, and then hanging back to its original position.
"I just don't know what will happen on the day of the Mountain God Festival. Will the person behind the scenes come out to clean up everything? Or will he destroy all the happiness at once when the people in the village feel happy?"
Da Vinci was bored and complained while searching for some information.
"It's not impossible. Anyway, what are those guys holding the Holy Grail thinking? We at least have a lot of experience, don't we?"
Lawrence shook his head.
For revenge, for destruction, for a perfect country, to make up for regrets, for a flawless lover, to save all human beings, etc., no matter what the reason is, Chaldea has seen it before and has experience in this aspect.
Rich.
Whether it's selfish or philanthropic, it's all wrong in the end, just like the moment you get the Holy Grail, you're bound to go down the wrong path. So far...there's been no exception.
"It would be great if I could still fight... At least I don't have to let senior investigate the singularity alone." Mashu looked a little autistic.
"It's okay, at least the Mountain God Festival hasn't arrived yet, so we still have room to investigate."
Da Vinci patted Matthew on the back and comforted him.
"I think that shrine is a good place to investigate. Aren't Mr. Himiko and Takasugi Shinsaku planning to send another batch of things there today? Ritsuka, please meet up with Ms. Yukina, and then go up the mountain with you to have a look."
"Animals that cannot be seen clearly, human faces that cannot be seen clearly, etc. Although it does sound a bit scary, you still have to see what you should see."
"I see."
After closing the communication, Fujimaru Ritsuka stood up.
"Miss Soina, today I will help Miss Himiko carry the things needed for the festival, but it seems that Miss Soina is going to practice the ritual dance today?"
Fujimaru Ritsuka glanced at the rather heavy-looking headdress on Souna's head.
