Chapter 624
【Achilles' running speed didn't slow down, and even accelerated. Like the spear just now, it was a wild run like a comet.】
【"Ooooooh—!"】
【Facing the roaring man, Atalanta prepared herself, seeing if he was going to grab the spear, break her neck, dig out her heart, or smash her skull—if you can do it, come and try.】
【Don't think that this degree can defeat her; she is the Demonic Beast of Calydon. As long as this curse is still there, she will absolutely not die completely.】
【But Achilles' action exceeded her expectations.】
【He grabbed Atalanta's neck with one hand, and actually grabbed the boar skin on the opponent's body with the other.】
【"Stop, stop, stop!"】
【"Shut up, don't defile her anymore."】
【Even if his muscles tore, Achilles didn't let go, forcibly tearing off this dirty thin skin with powerful force.】
【The torn skin first twitched violently, then turned into dust and disappeared.】
Rin Tohsaka: "So Achilles' purpose from the beginning wasn't to kill Atalanta, but to help Atalanta recover to her original state."
Waver: "Recovering is useless; Atalanta's situation in the video is already riddled with holes."
Shishigou Kairi: "Die together, so that's what it meant."
Achilles: "Hahaha, it's okay, Big Sis, I'll go with you."
Atalanta: "You idiot..."
【Lost the Noble Phantasm "Boar of Divine Punishment," Atalanta finally woke up and saw clearly who the person in front of her was.】
【"Rider..."】
【"Big Sis, sorry, I'm late."】
【Atalanta was a bit confused; why did she fight with him? Why did she kill each other with him?】
【Because she put on that Noble Phantasm and believed that doing so was right.】
【"Cough, cough... Big Sis, I think your dream is beautiful. Although I know better than anyone that it's a dream you can't get a return on, you who keep challenging it are also beautiful."】
【Achilles smiled: "However, you went astray. This road couldn't lead to your dream from the beginning; you shouldn't have moved forward, you should have turned back."】
【Atalanta said lonely: "That kind of person doesn't exist... that kind of person, doesn't exist."】
Rin Tohsaka: "Come to think of it, we still don't know what Atalanta's wish is?"
Atalanta: "..... I hope to create a world where children are not bullied and can live happily."
Everyone: "..."
Waver: "This wish is indeed too ideal."
There are so many children in this world, but not every one of them can have a happy childhood.
Wealth gap, torture of illness, fatherless and motherless, family discord, school bullying—these things are actually happening in different places every day.
Atalanta's wish, to put it nicely, is an ideal; to put it bluntly, it's daydreaming.
This kind of wish is no different from the world peace wish of Emiya Kiritsugu and Amakusa Shirou.
Probably because of this, Atalanta chose to help Amakusa Shirou.
【Achilles: "... Big Sis, sorry."】
【Atalanta: "Do you want to hinder me too?"】
【Achilles: "Mhm, very reluctant, we are both very reluctant."】
【Atalanta: "... Then what should I do? Is abandoning those children correct? Is being eliminated by Ruler correct?"】
【Achilles: "..."】
【Atalanta: "If the decision to abandon those children is correct, and wanting to protect them is wrong, then this world is cursed—"】
Jeanne: "... You are not wrong, and I am not wrong."
Jeanne: "We, actually, are neither wrong."
Atalanta: "..."
Although she knew this was a fact, Atalanta still had a grudge against Jeanne.
This kind of thing can only be figured out by Atalanta herself; others can't help her.
In the original work, Atalanta didn't let go of her knot until she joined Chaldea and was enlightened by the crown beauty Gudako.
【Achilles: "... Even so, I still want to stop you from falling."】
【"Fool, I think that's fine."】
【Atalanta smiled bitterly: "Since I've fallen, I won't spread my wings and soar anymore."】
【Atalanta's body began to disappear, and some warm object slid across her cheek.】
【It was Achilles; at this moment when life was about to end, his face was tear-stained like a child's.】
【"Didn't expect to be sent off by the tears of a kid like you."】
【Atalanta raised her hand, wanting to wipe away the tears, but unfortunately, she couldn't do it anymore.】
【"Did your wish come true? Then do you want to go together?"】
【Achilles: "I will accompany you to hell... if a kid like me is qualified."】
【Atalanta smiled: "You really are that son of Peleus."】
【In that era where rude and barbaric behavior was taken for granted and heroes strode forward, the only cowardly hero Peleus who thought steady was good—originally thought his son's personality was completely opposite to his. But now it seems, both are men who love to show off, but their nature is broad and tolerant.】
【"Big Sis, do you have any regrets?"】
【"Yes... but it doesn't matter anymore."】
【Just like an agreement, both disappeared from this world at the same time.】
Waver: "What a strange emotion."
Illya: "Achilles, are you going to snatch a woman from your own father?"
Atalanta: "???"
Achilles: "???"
Whose girl is this, can she speak!
They were feeling sad, and suddenly such a sentence popped out, destroying the atmosphere.
Achilles: "Please don't talk nonsense; toward Big Sis, that is truly respect from the bottom of my heart!"
Illya: "Is that so? But it doesn't look like it; you didn't cry so sadly when your teacher Chiron died."
Illya: "Could it be that you actually look down on your teacher in your heart!"
Chiron: "???"
Achilles: "Σ(っД;)っ"
Achilles: "Don't talk nonsense, be careful I sue you for slander! Teacher, she slandered me!"
Achilles: "She slandered me! Teacher, she slandered me!"
Chiron: "... Cough, cough, it's okay, Teacher understands."
Irisviel: "Illya (? A?)! You girl are slacking off in class again!"
Illya: "Oh my, discovered? (^? ^*)."
【On Jeanne's side, she had already successfully entered the interior of the palace, the place where the Greater Grail was housed.】
【Here, she also saw Semiramis, who had retreated earlier.】
【"If you want to get the Holy Grail, defeat me first... although I really want to say that—"】
【Semiramis moved her fingers lightly, the wall on the side disappeared, and a hidden door appeared.】
【"Go through there and go down. The Greater Grail is down there."】
【Jeanne: "Ah? What did you say?"】
【What kind of development is this? Are you going to jump back too?】
【"Don't be like this, I'm just obeying the Master's orders."】
【Semiramis said with a lazy posture: "Don't worry, the Red Caster is waiting for you below."】
【Jeanne frowned and didn't feel any malice from the Empress.】
【This means the opponent didn't lie to her.】
【Is she so confident, thinking that the Red Caster can deal with her?】
Shakespeare: "Oh, actually let me deal with the Saint."
Shakespeare: "Really, I'm just a writer, I don't have any combat power."
Jeanne: "Heh heh..."
