Chapter 572

Illya giggled, "Another new character unlocked~"

Darius, and this child who looks so cute~!

It is truly interesting. At the very beginning, they were so righteous, yet as time passed, these partners of justice transformed into such twisted, deformed existences.

And there is also that child named Erika.

A wish-granting machine atop the Holy Grail, and also a sorrowful soul who buried her own death~

【

Just as Illya was stopping Tanaka from bullying Erika, Erika suddenly sensed something and ran outside.

"Papa!", Erika said joyfully.

Illya didn't recognize him at first, but when she heard that cold, long-haired man introduce himself, Illya's body felt as if it had fallen into an ice cellar!

That was the head of the Ainsworth family... their enemy—Darius!!!

Upon realizing this, everyone immediately rushed out and launched an attack on him together, but shockingly, the opponent's strength exceeded everyone's imagination!

Whether it was Bazett, Kuro, or Illya transformed into Saber, none of them were a match for even a single move!

The cards the opponent used casually were all Noble Phantasms of historically renowned Heroic Spirits!

But Darius did not harm Illya and the others, because this stage play was not yet over!

Everyone watched Darius leave with trembling hearts, but what made them even more desperate was the Young Gil who had just returned from eating mapo tofu!

They highly suspected that the opponent ran off precisely because he knew about this!

"Hehe, next time I'll order dumplings; I want to bet on what the filling inside is," Young Gil said cutely.

Clearly, this duo of pleasure-seekers was getting along extremely well~!

Watching the group unable to hold it together, Young Gil could only helplessly ask about what had just happened, but upon learning of Darius's strength, Young Gil said nothing, closing his eyes as if he had fallen asleep.

And what no one expected was that just after Darius left, Erika brought Illya back that night because Miyu missed her.

And what made Illya even more devastated was that her soul had been transferred into an ugly doll!

"Move, my body!", Illya controlled the doll's body and sprinted wildly, but was taken back to the room by Beatrice, who mistook her for an ordinary doll.

After seeing a series of scenes children shouldn't see, Illya seized the chance to escape, only to run into a controlled Rin and Luvia!

The two immediately began hunting down this mysterious doll!

"Ahhhhh!", Illya scrambled and crawled up to the attic, where she was extremely lucky to encounter Magical Ruby!

Ruby immediately fused with Illya, and then an extremely explosive scene appeared in the attic.

A top-heavy, bottom-light doll with two pairs of sharp claws and an ugly-to-the-point-of-explosion appearance held a magic wand and struck an incredibly shameful pose in a magical girl outfit.

When the transformation was complete, Illya herself fell silent, and she couldn't help but mutter, "... Can I fight in this state?"

】

【Cid: "Uh... is this a limited edition magical doll girl?"】

【Tohsaka Rin: "Pfft, hahahahaha! Illya, your appearance is really going to laugh me to death!"】

【Sakata Gintoki: "Too ridiculous, I have no energy to complain."】

【Blue-haired: "I'm broken, can you dare to be more bizarre? Can't magical girls satisfy you anymore?!"】

【Illya: "Ahhh, it's not like that!"】

【

Illya prepared to fight to the death and immediately released a magic light cannon at Rin and Luvia, because she remembered what Beatrice had said earlier!

As long as you attack the opponent, you can make their consciousness return!

This is the moment!

But the terrifying magical girl beam she imagined drifted weakly and shortly toward Rin, and was then directly captured by Rin using a net.

Illya: "...?"

Illya turned and ran, but stepped into thin air and fell directly into a room!

Coincidentally, her body was right there!

Even more coincidentally, Child Gil was also there!

The battle between the two went all the way outside the castle; facing Child Gil's power, Illya had no way to resist!

On the other side, Kuro, knowing Illya had been captured, immediately wanted to mobilize Young Gil to go save her, but Young Gil was unhurried.

"Panic actions have no benefits. Besides, if their goal was to kill Illya, they should have killed her when they infiltrated here."

"As long as Illya doesn't mess around, she should be fine."

Bazett frowned, "You really trust the enemy."

"Not really," Young Gil shook his head, a smile of both helplessness and mockery appearing on his face, "They can also be considered partners of justice."

Kuro and Bazett were stunned at the same time. Partners of justice... Ainsworth?

They are nothing but perverts who imprison children!

Young Gil retorted: not children, but the Holy Grail.

Kuro didn't understand why they had to make that distinction here!

"I was originally prepared to push the progress slowly, but because that child named Erika came here, the progress leaped forward."

"If we enter their workshop again, it will be the final battle, so I want to confirm your will here first."

"Can you carry out evil?"

"If you want to rescue Illya and Sister Miyu, this will is indispensable."

"What do you mean?" Kuro and Bazett suddenly felt a chill in their bodies.

The corners of Young Gil's mouth raised with pure malice, and he said pleasurably, "The Ainsworths' goal is..."

】

..... transport.

Across the Myriad Worlds

Everyone was furious. What a well-timed lag!

But even without him saying it, they had already guessed it!

The Holy Grail, partners of justice—isn't this just the old script of using the Holy Grail to save the world?!

But in the end, the Holy Grail is just a crystal of magical energy; wishes like making everyone happy are simply impossible to realize!

In the Fate world, a group of Grand Servants shook their heads.

Young Gil didn't use Clairvoyance here; clearly, he didn't see the Ainsworths' ultimate goal. It definitely wasn't as simple as saving the world with the Holy Grail!

If it were really that simple, Gaia wouldn't have personally intervened!

Chapter 280: The Truth! The End of the Steel Land! The Concept of Magic Nukes! Saving the Land of the End!

【Penguin: "That's why those riddle-makers should get out, the further they die, the better!"】

【Riddler: "Look, you're anxious again."】

【Mouri Kogoro: "Even if he didn't finish, the answer is already obvious, humph, let me, the great detective Mouri Kogoro, tell you the answer! The truth is that the Ainsworth family is just another bunch of guys who want to make all of humanity happy!"】

【Conan: "Great! We can rule out this wrong answer."】

【Mouri Kogoro: "You damn brat!"】

【Justice Knight: "At least as of now, that's how things are, or rather, this is the continuation of the story of Emiya the Great Hero—whether to become a hero for one person or choose the world."】

【Tatsumaki: "Humph! Of course, choose to be a hero for one person. Saving the world or whatever—can it be more important than your own family?"】

【

"Why did you kidnap Miyu!", even while being choked by the neck, Illya insisted on asking this question.

Unexpectedly, Child Gil released Illya and looked at her coldly, "To save the world."

"Cough, cough... Save?", Illya found it inconceivable.

"You're from a parallel world, right? So it's no wonder you don't know," Child Gil glanced at Illya indifferently.

Then she slowly revealed the truth, "This world is heading toward destruction; we don't know the exact reason either."

"But the planet's Great Source has dried up, the ground is cracking, plant growth has begun to decrease, and the animals that feed on them have begun to die in large numbers."

"Humans... are no exception."

The simplest example is the outside world; it is clearly summer, yet heavy snow is falling.

That's right, the Earth's axis has shifted; the intense planetary-level transformation has already brought this planet to its demise!

"This world, which is about to perish, must be saved using the Holy Grail. You said earlier that you wanted to rescue Miss Miyu, right?"
