Chapter 359

【His story was completed. This is Amakusa Emiya Emiya Shirou's story, it is Jeanne's story—but more importantly, it is the story of the homunculus named Sieg.】

【What a miracle. Even as a homunculus, it is possible to become a Dragon Kind.】

Shakespeare: "Mm-hmm, only an ending like this to the story suits my wishes."

Shakespeare: "What a pity, though, that the real story is completely different."

Feng Xi: "You've already summoned a big boss, what else could you possibly be dissatisfied with?"

Shakespeare: "Oh, that's true, that is also a dramatic development."

【Writing the final sentence, adding his signature, and flashing a childlike smile, Shakespeare raises his hand and shouts: "Hahahaha! It's over! It's finally over! The end, it's the end! Ah, but—I wanted to be the protagonist too!"】

【In this final moment, he finally revealed his true feelings.】

【The floor collapses, his body falls, and with a smile of slight regret, he transforms into points of light and vanishes.】

【Finally, before the dragon disappears, it looks back at Astolfo and the others, nodding slightly to bid them farewell.】

【Everything is over.】

Empress: "Oh, I thought you were the type who would only hide in the back and write books. So you had ambition after all."

Shakespeare: "Naturally. As a writer, how could one not want to be the protagonist?"

Astolfo: "Wuu wuu, Sieg, you're really gone..."

Sieg: "... Why does that sound so strange?)"

【A few days later, international airport.】

【Letitia finishes checking in and thanks Astolfo, who came to see her off.】

【"Thank you for taking such good care of me. Please convey my thanks to Mr. Caules."】

【Astolfo: "Ah, don't worry about it, don't worry about it. You were completely dragged into this by accident."】

【That's right, Astolfo is still remaining in the current world.】

【Even though the Holy Grail War has ended, and even though his Master has gone to the reverse Reverse Reverse Reverse Reverse Side of the world, the causal link between him and Sieg has not been severed, which makes him very happy.】

Rin Tohsaka: "No wonder they say Astolfo is the final winner. This is really—"

Waver: "To remain in the human world forever in such a way, this doesn't follow the rules."

Feng Xi: "The Holy Grail is gone, so who cares about the rules?"

Waver: "Er—"

Tokiomi Tohsaka: "The Greater Grail was taken to the reverse Reverse Reverse Reverse Reverse Side of the world, which means there will be no more Holy Grail Wars in that world."

Feng Xi: "Not necessarily. While there won't be any more Greater Grail Wars, those Lesser Grail Wars might not necessarily end."

Everyone: "..."

That is true.

There is no benefit for the winner of a Lesser Grail War, yet countless ones have occurred over these sixty years, including the battle between Waver and Kayneth.

Things like conflict can never disappear.

Demon God King: "Hmph, this is humanity, filled with meaningless violence."

Feng Xi: "Please don't paint everyone with the same brush. Not everyone is like that."

Rin Tohsaka: "That's right, that's right."

Demon God King: "Hmph."

【Yggdmillennia has disbanded, and all the blame has been pushed onto Darnic. Of course, that's not wrong to say.】

【Caules plans to go to the Clock Tower to study, which is a disguised way of serving as a hostage to protect his sister, Fiore.】

【As for Fiore, she has completely given up on magecraft. Her legs are gradually recovering, and she has decided to follow the advice Chiron gave her before he died, taking a homunculus with her to travel the world.】

【From now on, there will no longer be a Jewel Jewel Mage named Fiore.】

【Gordes has also seen through everything, letting go of his reckless desire for victory, and plans to return to focus on raising his son.】

【It is said that he doesn't want his son to follow in his old footsteps, so he is going to implement a strict, demeaning education for Sieg.】

【Well, let us offer a moment of silence for his son.】

【As for the Yggdmillennia castle, it has been left directly to the homunculi. Led by Toure, the homunculi will spend their final days here.】

【There is no need to worry about safety; Astolfo will remain here to protect them.】

【After all, this was his Master's wish.】

【After that, perhaps he will go to see Siegfried's hometown.】

【Compared to the Yggdmillennia Reverse Reverse Reverse Reverse Side, the Jewel Jewel Mage's Association is depressed to the extreme.】

【Not to mention the loss of a whole pile of top-tier Servant relics, the Greater Grail is also completely gone. They paid so much and gained nothing.】

【The only good news is probably that five of the seven Red Masters returned alive.】

【And regarding the complaints from those old masters, both Roche and the Second are saying that it has nothing to do with them.】

"After going in such a big circle, did I end up on the same path after all?"

Fiore smiles bitterly; it seems she really has no choice but to give up magecraft.

Illya: "But I didn't expect that you, fatty uncle, actually had a son."

Gordes: "Hey, hey! Is it that strange for me to have a son? What do you Matsuwanko Matsuwanko Take me for!"

Illya: "I just can't imagine who would Matsuwanko Matsuwanko Take a fancy to you."

Gordes: "You brat!!!"

Sieg: "..."

Seeing that his fellow homunculi in the video can live out the rest of their lives in peace, he also breathes a sigh of relief.

It seems he needs to work hard in reality as well.

Kairi Sisigou: "But this Holy Grail War really left the Jewel Jewel Mage's Association at a total loss."

Caules: "Yggdmillennia is the same. The entire family is gone."

"Sigh..."

【Boarding the plane and looking at the sky being sliced apart, Letitia cannot help but recall the previous memories.】

【It's truly something; she and Sieg only spoke once.】

【"Mr. Sieg, even if you aren't a Master, aren't a Servant, and can't use magecraft, as long as you are you, you are a wonderful person."】

【Just because she conveyed this sentence, she doesn't feel regret at all, not even in the slightest.】

【It should have been like that, but thinking of the surprised expression on Sieg's face when he heard those words, and thinking of him nodding, tears fall regardless.】

【That person was more—full of smiles than she had imagined.】

Jeanne: "I've really caused you trouble, Letitia."

Letitia: "It's fine. For me, it was also a good experience."

Waver: "Next should be the showdown between the future me and Hartless, right?"

Kayneth: "Indeed. After all, today is the final round."

Kayneth: "Hm? Wait a second, why hasn't this video ended yet?"

【"Has this great war really ended?"】

【Accompanied by a stirring musical score, Sieg's voice slowly rises.】

【"Heroic Spirits gathered, totaling 14 riders."】

【In the pitch-black night, an orange-haired girl in white clothes runs with a smile on her face.】

【In the sky, the figure of the Evil Dragon Fafnir streaks past, Siegfried appears in mid-air, and unleashes his Noble Phantasm to launch an attack.】

【At the same time, Karna also appears beside Siegfried, using 'O Brahma, Curse Me' to attack together.】

【And under these two attacks, Astolfo rides the Hippogriff, dodging nimbly.】

【"Now, the Holy Grail War raises its curtain once again."】

【Red and blue light illuminates the night sky; Mordred and Frankenstein walk through the ruins, bumping fists with great rapport.】

【Spartacus laughs as he gallops across the wilderness, dragging Jack with one hand and Atalanta with the other.】

【Jack spreads her arms and screams excitedly, while Atalanta has a serious expression, nocking an arrow to attack.】

【Above the castle, Semiramis and Shakespeare watch the distance quietly, wearing smiles.】

【And on the battlefield, Chiron and Achilles stand back-to-back, facing the attack of the Dragon Tooth Warriors together.】

【Inside a blue room, Mash stands with her back to a spherical device, her eyes widening as if waking from a dream.】

【Dawn arrives, slowly illuminating Sieg's figure.】

【Compared to the green youth from before, he clearly looks more serious and mature in the video.】
