Chapter 203: This Kid Is Truly Too Useful!

For a moment, everyone, including Bai Bai Zeming, opened their mouths wide, gazing heavily at the shattered sky above with slightly dazed expressions.

... What the heck?

One strike crushed the Holy Grail and shattered the sky?!

With power like this, Big Brother, you should have said so earlier; why did I have to busy myself around this Fuyuki City?

Of course, despite the complaints and sighs, Bai Bai Zeming understood why Lin Yu had been unwilling to intervene before.

Summoning the Holy Grail by leveraging the rules of the Holy Grail War had already provoked the backlash of the Root; if Lin Yu had forced his hand, the consequences could have been even more severe than now!

Above everyone's heads, Gilgamesh, standing on a flying boat, fell silent; his arms, originally crossed over his chest, dropped down, and he gazed heavily at the mirror-like shattered sky with a Grim expression.

A casual strike could actually rival his strongest Excalibur.

Such a feat, even the gods in his cognition could not achieve!

... Is this truly a Great Existence in the literal sense?

Gilgamesh thought silently in his heart.

Just as everyone was immersed in complex emotions like shock, astonishment, and fear, Lin Yu, who had caused all of this, had a completely different psychological activity.

"Bad, it seems I used a bit too much force!"

Looking at the pitch-black cracks that were crazily devouring the matter of this world, Lin Yu blinked his eyes, feeling somewhat awkward.

The space of this world was more fragile than he had anticipated, causing him to fail to master the force properly; he accidentally pierced through the world, connecting it to the small void outside the world...

Without external interference, these spatial cracks would exist permanently, continuously devouring the matter of this world until it completely destroyed the entire world.

Of course, with Lin Yu's power, he could heal these shattered spaces.

But the headache was that the small void outside the cracks was extremely close to the Root; if he used power of this degree again, it would easily lead to consequences even more severe than now.

After a brief thought, his eyes suddenly lit up, as if he had thought of a perfect solution that satisfied both sides.

Without hesitation, he immediately shifted his mind, and the Qimen formation instantly expanded a hundredfold, spreading across the entire archipelago.

The next second, silver light burst forth, and a pink-haired youth wearing a green school uniform appeared out of thin air.

As soon as he appeared, the pink-haired youth couldn't help but pause for a moment, but quickly, he reacted, looking at the handsome youth before him and the disaster-like scene above his head, his face immediately turned black.

"So you finally couldn't hold back and decided to destroy the world?"

"I said it wasn't intentional, do you believe me?"

"So... you admit you did this?"

"No, I didn't."

Lin Yu placed his hand on Qi Mu Kirisaki Nan Xiong's shoulder and said with a serious expression: "Anyway, there's no time to explain; quickly restore this shattered space!"

"..."

Qi Mu Kirisaki Nan Xiong showed suspicion, but still immediately raised his arm, aiming it at the shattered sky above.

In the next instant, invisible power spread out, covering the sky within a hundred li.

All the spatial forces sweeping outward contracted and rolled back as if time were reversing; the terrifying and grotesque long cracks also began to gradually heal under the effect of the invisible power.

In just ten seconds, the shattered sky returned to its original state, but the matter that had already been devoured was not restored.

Within a hundred li of the entire Enzang Mountain, there were no clouds, leaving only a sky as blue as washed jade and a sun hanging high in the sky.

Seeing this scene, Lin Yu wore a satisfied smile.

He finally understood why Alaya and Gaia had compromised for Qi Mu Kirisaki Nan Xiong!

The reason was nothing else; this kid was truly too useful!

Especially in cleaning up, wiping the butt, and clearing the aftermath, he was simply a hundred times more useful than that so-called Guardian, comparable to the designated hero for cleaning up and rebooting in neighboring DC—the Flash!

Looking at the sky that had returned to its original state, Qi Mu Kirisaki Nan Xiong sighed, turned his head, and glanced at Lin Yu, saying:

"So, who actually did this?"

Lin Yu honestly answered: "Me."

Qi Mu Kirisaki Nan Xiong: "..."

Lin Yu explained with a sincere face: "Little Xiong, listen to my excuse; I did this to save the Earth, it was unavoidable..."

Saying this, he told Qi Mu Kirisaki Nan Xiong everything about the Holy Grail and the curse, but only concealed the turmoil of the Root.

Qi Mu Kirisaki Nan Xiong initially had a look of "I'll see how you excuse this," but as he listened, he fell silent, looking at the Lin Yu before him with a somewhat complex expression.

"So... did you really eliminate the curse?"

"Eliminated... but not completely eliminated."

Lin Yu nodded, then shook his head, raising the pitch-black heart in his hand: "This heart is the aggregation of billions of curses in the Holy Grail, but it only represents the accumulated evil of humanity from the past."

"Even if I drain it dry, this world will still continuously birth new curses."

"They are born from human evil thoughts; as long as evil thoughts cannot be cut off, they will never truly disappear."

Hearing this, Qi Mu Kirisaki Nan Xiong couldn't help but fall silent.

As a superpowered being possessing telepathy, he had lived among human good and evil thoughts since childhood.

He understood that Lin Yu was right; human evil thoughts cannot be completely eradicated; even his thick-skulled parents would occasionally have some thoughts they shouldn't have...

Looking at the pink-haired youth before him with furrowed brows, Lin Yu smiled, flipped his hand to put away the pitch-black heart, and patted his shoulder.

"Alright, young man, stop pretending to be deep there!"

"This is not a problem you should be thinking about at your age."

"Human evil thoughts indeed cannot be eradicated, but they can be controlled; just like those mud-like curses, as long as they are cleaned and absorbed regularly, they can be kept at a healthy level..."

Qi Mu Kirisaki Nan Xiong's expression shifted slightly; after pondering for a moment, he asked softly: "What should I do?"

Lin Yu was very satisfied with Qi Mu Kirisaki Nan Xiong's quick understanding; immediately, he grabbed his right hand and gently tapped the back of his hand.

In an instant, streams of silver light burst forth, weaving into a mysterious and intricate eye on the back of Qi Mu Kirisaki Nan Xiong's hand.

"What is this?"

"Hidden Eye, Eye of Chaos, or Gazing Eye—choose whichever name you prefer."

"That's not what I meant."

Qi Mu Kirisaki Nan Xiong, his forehead crisscrossed with black lines, said, "I mean, what does this thing do?"

Lin Yu stated matter-of-factly, "Of course, to absorb curses!"

"This eye pupil bears the power I left behind; it can communicate with the Kong Dong that births the black mud, just as the Ling Zhou communicates with the Throne of Heroes. As long as you come to Enzō Mountain once a year on schedule, you can use it to cleanse newly generated curses."

"And I will come every year... send Bai Bai Zeming to retrieve the curses, so they won't affect you in any way."

Speaking thus, Lin Yu paused, then smiled and said, "Of course, this is just a precaution. In fact, with your mental defense, even the billions of curses from before couldn't do anything to you, could they?"

"..."

Qi Mu Kirisaki Nan Xiong nodded slightly, indicating that was indeed the case.

In the earliest timeline, he intervened in the Holy Grail War, but because he didn't understand the principles and nature of the Holy Grail, he failed to seal the Kong Dong like Saber did; instead, he tore open an even larger rift, causing the black mud within the Kong Dong to surge forth, swallowing the entire Enzō Mountain almost instantly and causing countless casualties.

This incident inflicted immense psychological trauma on his young heart at the time.

Consequently, in subsequent cycles, he dared not interfere with the Holy Grail War again.

Now, this reliable my lord, Lin Yu, had resolved this mental burden for him. Though Qi Mu Kirisaki Nan Xiong said nothing on the surface, he was deeply grateful in his heart.

Precisely for this reason, even though he knew Lin Yu's request for him to clean the curses was not well-intentioned, he still readily agreed.

"That's good!"

Lin Yu greatly appreciated Qi Mu Kirisaki Nan Xiong's initiative; he immediately patted his shoulder with satisfaction and smiled, saying, "Judging by the time, you're still in class, right? Don't worry, I'll send you back right now!"

"..."

Qi Mu Kirisaki Nan Xiong's face darkened again, as if to say, 'You actually know I'm in class?'

Lin Yu's smile remained unchanged; he immediately waved his hand and sent Qi Mu Kirisaki Nan Xiong back to the school before he could react.

Only after Qi Mu Kirisaki Nan Xiong's figure completely vanished did Lin Yu turn his head to look down at the crowd below.

And only then did Gilgamesh, who had remained silent until this moment, finally speak, his brows furrowed as he asked:

"Who is he?"

"..."

Lin Yu glanced at him and said, "You've lived in the human world for a year; can't you guess?"

Gilgamesh fell silent once more, then whispered, "The Forbidden Zone?"

Lin Yu nodded and said, "Correct."

It was indeed him!

Gilgamesh looked at the place where Qi Mu Kirisaki Nan Xiong had vanished with a complex expression.

On this pink-haired youth, he felt a radiance nearly akin to that of a god, and moreover, this radiance was not singular; at least two great existences were bestowing their favor upon this youth!

One could only say that Gilgamesh truly lived up to his title as 'The One Who Witnesses All'!

Within a single short day, he had encountered fully two existences beyond comprehension!

Lin Yu ignored the complex-faced Gilgamesh and descended directly onto the ruined ground.

Bai Bai Zeming and others hurried forward, asking with eager expressions, "Is it resolved?"

"It is resolved!"

Lin Yu smiled and nodded: "The few remaining lingering issues have also been taken over by a kind-hearted person..."

Bai Bai Zeming blinked and whispered, "God Qi?"

Lin Yu nodded and said, "Correct."

Bai Bai Zeming breathed a sigh of relief: "That's great!"

"Then... what about the Holy Grail War?"

To the side, Rin Tohsaka suddenly asked slowly with a complex expression.

Lin Yu glanced at her and said indifferently, "Little girl, convey a message to the Magic Association for me: from now on, there shall be no such thing as a Holy Grail War in this world!"

"If anyone dares to build the Greater Grail again, I will appear personally and have a chat with them!"

Having finished speaking, before anyone could react, Lin Yu waved his hand.

In an instant, silver light burst forth; Rin Tohsaka, her sister, and Shirō Emiya vanished instantly, as did Saber, Rider, Archer, and Gilgamesh in the sky.

For a moment, amidst the ruins of Ryūdō Temple, only Zhao Yun, Bai Bai Zeming, and Lancer remained besides Lin Yu.

Bai Bai Zeming, his expression shocked, couldn't help but ask, "Where did they go?"
