"But your direction is completely wrong. It should be Miss Miyu saving everyone; the two are irreversible. What you need to do now is betray this world."

Upon hearing this, Illya was stunned; she couldn't believe it.

Seeing Illya refuse to admit it, Child Gil directly projected images and explained everything to Illya clearly.

"Let me tell you the future of this world."

"The magical energy produced within living organisms is the Small Source, and the magical energy that fills this world is the Great Source."

"We mages have magic circuits in our bodies that can convert life force into pseudo-nerves for magic, but the magical energy a person's life force can generate is limited."

"Producing the energy that serves as the source and constituting the world that serves as the foundation—magic can only exist because of this world."

Illya hurriedly looked at Ruby, and Ruby also admitted this; this is the principle of the world.

Illya still wanted to refute: losing the Great Source only troubles mages!

"No!", Child Gil sternly interrupted Illya. Only troubles mages?

Too naive. On this land, some areas have already begun to see certain unknown particles, and where these particles appear, life is devastated!

No living creature can survive!

【Kyubey: "No matter the world, one cannot escape the irreversibility of entropy increase. How sad."】

【Tohsaka Rin: "Wait! Doesn't this mean this planet is about to face the Steel Land?!! It's not to save suffering humans, but to truly save this dying world?!"】

【...: "That's not it. I thought it was the humans on the planet that were being looked at, but I didn't expect it to be the planet itself."】

【Nobi Nobita: "But if this is really the ending of the Steel Land, then it certainly can't be solved by one Holy Grail, right? Didn't it say before that the Steel Land and Notes are the end of human history, an unavoidable ending? If the Holy Grail could solve it, it would have been solved long ago, right?"】

【Merlin: "That's right. The Holy Grail is, to put it bluntly, just drawing magical energy from the ley lines, but how can this tiny bit of magical energy reverse the death of a planet? The Holy Grail War itself is based on human competition and utilization of resources, so it might not only fail to save it, but also exacerbate the planet's conflicts and contradictions. However, maybe Miyu, who is the Holy Grail here, can do it~"】

【Three-Body Leader: "That's right, even the smallest hope is worth experimenting with! Everything is for survival!"】

【Uzumaki Naruto: "... Why do you always impose your will on others?"】

【Blackbeard: "Ze-hahahahaha! Kid, don't you understand yet? This is the law of the jungle, the bullying of the weak by the strong! If that little girl were stronger, the right to choose would be in her hands!"】

Fate World

In the endless sea of stars, the Alien God U-Olga Marie had pity in her eyes, mixed with a hint of mockery.

Such a small planet is truly disaster-ridden.

During this time, she combined the information from the panel with the information of this world and analyzed the entire galaxy.

First, the entire galaxy, or the so-called Three Thousand Worlds, is managed by the so-called Buddha, and the solar system is managed by Bodhisattvas.

In the solar system, besides Earth and the Sun, every planet has given birth to the strongest ultimate species, the UOs.

And the physical laws within every planet in the solar system are the same. It is precisely because of the differences in mystery that Earth humans cannot conduct interstellar migration.

And on Earth, the Root is the greatest but doesn't care, and the two Counter Forces beneath the Root only fight each other.

The two Counter Forces, one for the sake of humanity not perishing and the other for the sake of the planet not perishing, began to interfere with and arbitrate the direction of history, ultimately leading to a dead end.

What's even more ridiculous is that the conflict between the two cannot be resolved, and the final outcome is that both Counter Forces die.

And the various mythologies born on Earth are also very interesting. Buddhism is the greatest, managing the galaxy.

Daoism has never really appeared, but the traces left behind fully demonstrate the opponent's strength: opening up small worlds of caves and blessed lands, ascending to immortality, and creating a unique system of cultivation.

But unfortunately, the inheritance of Daoism has been severed.

And as for Christianity? God is nowhere to be found, but the magical system left behind is spread all over the world.

Of course, big shots like Sakyamuni, the Three Pure Ones, and God have long transcended everything and don't care about these things at all.

If those guys were to take action... No, perhaps the so-called end is the work of those guys.

【

"Those particles are a deadly poison to all living creatures."

"This is normal. A planet on the verge of crisis overturns the rules from the root. Creatures created through the original rules cannot survive in the new world."

Illya's face was pale, and her body was trembling.

"Please, please wait," Ruby suddenly interrupted, questioning, "Even if this is a fact, how can it stop the Great Source from drying up?"

"Even if it's the Holy Grail, a wish-granting machine that operates on magical energy as food, using magical energy to create more magical energy is fundamentally..."

Ruby wanted to refute Child Gil and the others from the details, but the Ainsworths had long known this was wrong.

"On the contrary, it's already too late to replenish the Great Source, so the question now is how to use the remaining Great Source on this planet."

"How to use the gathered Great Source to cast the last Great Magic in the world!"

"We—," Child Gil stated their plan without hesitation.

Transform humanity, transform humans into creatures adapted to this planet!

"The world or Miyu?", Child Gil asked the final question indifferently.

】

Across the Myriad Worlds

A smile of pleasure appeared on everyone's faces. So that's it, is this the reason driving the Ainsworth family to kidnap Miyu?

Trading one person for the whole world—no matter how many times this question is discussed, the vast majority of the audience in the Myriad Worlds would choose to let that person sacrifice.

Because they are ordinary enough; the heavy responsibility of saving the world will not fall on them, because they are the poor humans waiting to be saved.

What makes everyone look forward to it even more is, how will Illya choose now?

Will she choose Miyu like Emiya the Great Hero, or will she listen to the cries of the living and choose the world?

And in the Myriad Worlds, countless non-human creatures fell into anger.

Heh, look at that, this is humanity!

At a time of such world-shaking, biological reshuffling, they want to occupy a cheating advantage. They have truly pushed human greed to the extreme!

Toaru World

"Is there really no other way?"

Uiharu was also confused. Is the end of the Steel Land really a dead end?

No... there must be other possibilities! Perhaps it's just that among countless possibilities, it hasn't been discovered yet!

For example... Uiharu had thought of a possibility as soon as she saw the Steel Land.

That is... the combination of technology and magic—the Magic Nuke.

There are two endings to the end of humanity, but whether it's the Steel Land or Notes, both sides of mystery and technology are destined to perish.

Since that's the case, why not combine the two?

Write magic into a nuclear bomb, cause magical energy to fission through nuclear fission, then let this planet return to a brief Age of Gods, and then launch a Holy Grail War on a planetary scale!

Whether this Holy Grail War launched on a planetary basis, or this massive magical energy, can save the planet...

Or rather, even if it just allows it to continue, that would be good.

But this is all empty talk. Not to mention whether the mystery of that world can be integrated with technology, just the fact that the planet itself doesn't acknowledge humans—how would it allow humans to save themselves?

"My head hurts. To put it bluntly, it's just conservation of energy," Uiharu sighed, looking up.

【

Illya, knowing the truth, fell into despair and pain. To save Miyu, she had to become a sinner who destroys the world, but what's even sadder is...

Once that is done, Miyu won't be able to survive in the end, but if she just gives up on Miyu like this...

Letting Miyu suffer alone... it's simply too much.

Illya hid, and Child Gil searched for her, but Illya no longer had her previous firm belief.

If it were before, Illya could still say she was righteous; she could be fearless for Miyu's sake!

But now... Miyu and the world were placed on the two ends of the scale.

The other side of Miyu... is too heavy.

This sense of heaviness made Illya collapse in despair!

Even when Child Gil was about to kill her, she stood there, at a loss.

Fortunately, at the critical moment, Kuro blocked Child Gil. Regarding whether to choose Miyu or the world, she chose Miyu without hesitation!

Child Gil didn't understand, but Kuro firmed her own thoughts, because in her memory, Emiya Kiritsugu gave up becoming a partner of justice and chose to become a hero for one person!

"I don't care about the world! The lives I carry are just two people! A cowardly sister and an imprisoned princess!"

Kuro threw down harsh words, but in the face of absolute strength, she was quickly beaten to the ground!

Fortunately, Illya rescued Kuro in time, and Kuro's words made Illya completely understand!

She cannot abandon Miyu, and she cannot abandon the world either!

So... so!

"Miyu... the world... I want both!!!"
