Chapter 505
Kayneth: "A secret underground room, sure enough there's a problem."
Waver: "Does that Priest Fernand know about the existence of this passage?"
Kayneth: "Heh, he stays here all day, do you think he wouldn't know."
【At the same time, on the square side.】
【Sister Ilumia received a letter addressed to her from the old man who runs the grocery store and frowned faintly.】
【"... Ah, it's here."】
【On the other side, Gray's mother is accompanying an old woman with a withered figure.】
【The old woman is the oldest person in the whole village and should have already exceeded one hundred years old, so everyone respectfully calls her Grandma.】
【Suddenly, Grandma's lips, which were like withered leaves, moved.】
【"There is a sound from underground."】
【Gray's mother: "From underground?"】
【"That's right, a very distant sound; I only heard it once when I was a child, and I haven't forgotten that sound until now."】
【Grandma muttered: "Gray's completion is very good."】
【Gray's mother laughed: "Yes, the moment for that child has finally arrived."】
Shishigou Kairi: "So a magical alarm was left behind; this isn't surprising."
Waver: "A centenarian in the village, it seems this one is the person in charge of this village."
Emiya Kiritsugu: "Waver and the others' actions seem to be all within the other party's plan."
Emiya Kiritsugu: "Whether this is the timeline of the past, I hold great doubt."
【The screen returns to the church side.】
【The two walked down the stairs cautiously, constantly checking to prevent encountering mechanisms.】
【Waver walked in front, while casting spells to circulate the air, and created a ball of light for illumination.】
【Gray: "Where is this..."】
【Waver: "Even you don't know?"】
【Gray: "I'm seeing this for the first time."】
【Waver: "Hmm? There are footprints!"】
【Waver stopped, only to see footprints left by multiple treading clearly on the ground.】
【It's very obvious that someone had been here not long ago, and the number was quite large.】
Kayneth: "Heh, it seems this isn't any secret."
Waver: "The whole village knows, but Gray doesn't, that's really..."
Rin Tohsaka: "In other words, the whole village is the enemy."
Waver: "Maybe, but Mr. Bersac shouldn't be."
【"Is this the main body of the church? Or was the church built to hide this place?"】
【Thinking of this, Gray couldn't help but feel afraid.】
【This is her hometown, but she seems to have never known the true face of this place.】
【Although she became more and more uneasy in her heart, Gray still tried to stay calm and followed behind Waver.】
【"In the past, underground was equal to the Underworld itself in many places in the world."】
【Waver also saw Gray's anomaly and spoke up to help her divert some attention.】
【"Some people call the afterlife the Underworld or the netherworld, and some people call it the Land of Shadows. Regardless of which one, the world of the dead is connected to reality; as long as there is a will, one can arrive by walking."】
