Chapter 18

She had long since considered this battle to be the last of her life.

And yet……

This A-rank evil spirit had died inexplicably……

In an extremely short time, killed by someone unknown.

She looked ahead in confusion, recalling the scent in the soil, and suddenly her face changed, filled with shock.

“No…… this scent is wrong……”

“It’s the scent of the Jewel of Death!!”

“Withdraw immediately! I must report the situation from tonight to headquarters!”

Isayama Yomi commanded sharply, her expression terrifyingly shocked.

Compared to the appearance of a new Jewel of Death, the appearance of an A-rank evil spirit was somewhat ordinary.

Everyone looked at each other, not knowing what had happened.

While bewildered, the members of the Supernatural Disaster Countermeasures Agency secretly breathed a sigh of relief……

Now they shouldn't have to face the terrifying evil spirit.

After the agent’s order was given, the people quickly ran toward the agency.

Isayama Yomi stopped in place, blankly gazing at the moon hanging in the sky.

For some reason, the mysterious person who exorcised the evil spirit tonight reminded her of something.

It seemed that the last time the Black Cavity phenomenon occurred at the Happiness Manor, it had also been solved by someone in such an inexplicable way.

Could both of these events be the work of the same person?

“Who exactly are you……”

The long-haired girl murmured to herself, her mood more complex than ever before.

A breeze gently ruffled her hair.

Tonight, the moon was as bright as water.

20. Command Spell resonance system, the Sky Screen appears, shocking the world!

Chiba City, Happiness Manor.

The long night dragged on, and the horizon gradually turned a pale fish-belly white.

In the bedroom, the youth in moon-white robes scratched his head in frustration, playing with a smooth, blood-colored jade bead in his hand—it was the Jewel of Death.

“Really, how should I deal with this thing?”

After escorting Kagome safely to the Higurashi Shrine, Luo Shu had returned to his rented room.

After the battle in the Sawayama Great Forest, he had manifested the one-time skill 【Secret Sword: Swallow Reversal】 on himself, easily slaying the A-rank evil spirit that threatened the city, but it had also burned through about seven hundred Divine Authority Jades.

This was only because the PV for Fate/stay night had aired, and many people had a clear, outlined impression of the Swallow Reversal performed by Sasaki Kojiro.

Otherwise, it would have burned at least three hundred more Divine Authority Jades.

Although the consumption was high, after a night of accumulation, more and more people around the world had entered the Observer Network, becoming loyal fans of Fate/stay night, contributing many Divine Authority Jades through their belief and worship.

At this moment, his accumulation of Divine Authority Jades had reached 7,256.14!

And with the snowball effect, the growth rate was getting faster and faster.

It had reached the critical point where he could create the Sky Screen.

However, he had to wait until he figured out how to deal with the 【Jewel of Death】.

Using it on himself was definitely out of the question; the Jewel of Death had deep demonic properties that would subtly turn him into a mass murderer.

Although he could use Divine Authority Jades to remove the Reverse Reverse Side effects, a treasure that touched the Third Third Tier 4 realm would require tens or hundreds of thousands of Divine Authority Jades to handle.

Doing so would be too extravagant, not to mention he was still very poor.

The youth crossed his arms and fell into deep thought, then suddenly asked the silver ripples.

“Void, if I want to use the Jewel of Death as an energy source to create Heroic Spirits from the Fate series, is it feasible?”

“Hum hum hum…… (Calculating).”

On the left Reverse Reverse Side of his vision, the silver ripples undulated excitedly and soon gave an answer.

Feasible!

The essence of the Jewel of Death was a cluster of energy.

It possessed the concepts of both positive and negative poles, containing both the deep resentment of the Nine-Tailed Fox at the time of her death and a vast amount of harmless, pure energy.

This was also why holders of the “Jewel of Death” were prone to falling into demonic paths.

When using the power of the evil dragon, his own neck would also grow reverse scales.

The two were intertwined, almost inseparable.

Separating the baleful energy from the pure energy perfectly was very difficult.

But the Void had a way to take a different path!

Luo Shu could choose to spend two thousand Divine Authority Jades to implant the Heroic Spirit Sensory Sensory Mode into the Jewel of Death!

After a successful implantation, he could summon Heroic Spirits using the baleful energy within it. After the Heroic Spirit died in battle, the baleful energy would dissipate into the world, leaving behind pure energy for him to recycle, which he could then use to upgrade himself.

Obtaining a powerful bodyguard with strength rivaling Third Third Tier 4 at the lowest possible cost.

And the bodyguard could even drop gold coins when they died!

Awesome!

It was killing two birds with one stone.

Luo Shu’s lips curled slightly, his smile as refreshing as a spring breeze.

But then, he seemed to think of something and fell into deep thought again.

Wait……

Since he was already prepared to expose the Holy Grail War of the “parallel world” via the Sky Screen……

Why not act as the mastermind behind the scenes and ignite a Holy Grail War in the real world as well?

While shocking the world, it would also increase the credibility of the Fate series!

Under normal circumstances, if he wanted to forge seven Servants in reality, it would cost at least several million Divine Authority Jades.

But now it was different.

He could get a free ride!

Using the abundant resources of reality to stage a magnificent Holy Grail War.

Although Luo Shu didn’t have millions of Divine Authority Jades, others had Jewels of Death!

He remembered that in Ga-Rei: Zero, there were nine “Jewels of Death” scattered around the world.

A total of 5 people had possessed a Jewel of Death.

Namely Kagura’s father, Kagura, Mikado, Yomi’s sister, and Yomi.

Although Kagura and her father possessed the same Jewel of Death, Mikado had his own, and Yomi and her sister possessed the same one—the fourth Jewel of Death didn’t appear in the anime……

But theoretically, reality could summon up to nine Heroic Spirits.

Whoever obtained a Jewel of Death could summon a Heroic Spirit.

Once the Heroic Spirits descended one after another and began to fight on the grand stage of reality, it would definitely stun the whole world!

He only needed to safely act as the mastermind, sitting securely on the fishing platform.

Whenever a Servant died in battle, he would go and recycle the pure energy.

Earning both Divine Authority Jades and massive resources.

It was truly Qin Shi Huang touching a wire—winning big!

Luo Shu rubbed his chin with his index finger, smiling slightly, the corners of his mouth curling up involuntarily.

However, the premise for all this was that he could influence the other Jewels of Death scattered around the world through the one in his hand.

He asked softly:

“Void, can you implant the Heroic Spirit Sensory Sensory Mode into this Jewel of Death while also creating a resonance system so that other Jewels of Death have the same effect?”

“Hum! (Yes, but it will cost an extra two hundred Divine Authority Jades).”

The silver ripples undulated, very obediently.

“That’s OK, just proceed according to this plan.”

Luo Shu nodded with satisfaction.

After receiving the command, the Void began to consume Divine Authority Jades. A glow invisible to outsiders enveloped and permeated the blood-colored jade bead, beginning to reshape its internal structure, and wisps of profound energy overflowed.

In an instant.
