Chapter 767
【Gray: "I, have started to change again."】
【The Second didn't know what to say, and could only look at the box in Gray's hand.】
【"Add, you..."】
【"Hey, hey, don't show such a gloomy expression, Teacher!"】
【Add said loudly on purpose: "No, do you usually have that expression? Excuse me, hee hee!"】
【Second: "Gray..."】
【"It's okay, Master."】
【Gray lowered her head, making it impossible to see her expression: "I'm very sorry, I seem to be a bit tired. Can I ask Master to set off first?"】
【Second: "... I understand."】
【The Second got up and took a step; now is indeed not the time to waste here.】
【Looking at the Second's departing back, Gray whispered: "Can you listen to me indulge in self-intoxication?"】
【Add: "Please feel free to order, My Lady."】
【Gray: "... We are a very, very honest duo."】
【"... I think so too."】
【Add's voice became weaker and weaker: "Sorry, slow Gray. I'm going to sleep for a while."】
【"... Okay."】
【Gray nodded, supporting herself to stand up; the box in her hand lost its sound, but in the last moment it also turned into a scythe.】
【"It hurts..."】
【Gray held her abdomen; how long can her body support?】
【While thanking Gray, even so, she left the scythe form, allowing her to continue fighting, while accelerating her pace and quickly chasing after the Second.】
Rin Tohsaka: "... It's really hard for Gray."
Illya: "I don't know if Add will wake up in the future."
Iskandar: "Kid, this won't do, how can you let a little girl protect you."
Waver: "..."
Fiore: "If King Arthur hadn't arrived, she probably wouldn't even be able to stand up and fight now."
King Arthur arrived in the Fifth War, causing Gray's body to undergo another mutation; although I don't know if it's good or bad, for the current Gray, it should count as a good thing.
At the very least, her recovery ability has far exceeded ordinary people.
【Gray caught up with the Second, and the two successfully arrived at Heartless's location.】
【The place where Heartless is located is exceptionally gorgeous.】
【Several circling rays of light are connected, reminding people of the World Tree that appeared in mythology.】
【This is clearly underground, but the light dotted on the top cover is like a starry sky, as if being in the universe.】
【Heartless is standing in front of the magic circle, with his back to the two, not looking back, and only spoke after a long while: "How is the situation at the Grand Rank Resolution?"】
【"Miss Inorai seems to have submitted an application, and the meeting is temporarily interrupted."】
【Knowing that the other party was deliberately giving him time to contact, the Second didn't hide it and said: "The time left is probably about fifteen minutes. They seem to be deciding whether to treat the meeting as if it never happened based on whether I can stop you."】
【After restoring communication with Luvia, this was the first thing he confirmed.】
【Heartless turned his head, his face exaggerated: "Oh my, this change startled me."】
【Second: "Me too."】
【Heartless: "In this way, many things will be decided within this period of about fifteen minutes, Lord El-Melloi II."】
Caules: "Finally faced Heartless, just worried that some other moths will appear."
Fiore: "Can't let our guard down now; even if Heartless is extremely weak now, don't forget Faker."
Shishigou Kairi: "According to the usual routine of TV dramas, it's not that easy to catch such a big BOSS; something will definitely go wrong, at the very least, there will be a fight."
【Heartless: "El-Melloi II, what is your purpose in coming here? Is it to stop me?"】
【Second: "Of course, exactly."】
【Heartless said incredulously: "Why? If it were you, you should have already found out the Whydunit. I intend to create a god for mages, and it is the god Iskandar; you should have no reason to stop me."】
【Second: "Yes, I must have come to confirm this point."】
【"I see."】
【Heartless touched his chin and said: "Why? I felt earlier that even that beast couldn't stop you."】
【"Ten years ago, you were swallowed by that monster, right?"】
【Second suddenly said: "Or, were you swallowed thirty years ago, would that statement be more suitable?"】
【"..."】
【Heartless was stunned, and guessed after a long while: "Have you already deduced so much?"】
Rin Tohsaka: "What do you mean? Heartless was eaten by that monster before? But isn't he still alive and well now?"
Caules: "Ten years ago, thirty years ago, what do you mean?"
Waver: "Ten years ago... thirty years ago... swallowed... 'would that statement be more suitable'... Heartless designed to kill Heartless... Adashino Kurou... Magic Eye..."
Waver: "Could it be! Hey, hey, you're joking—"
【Second: "Your technique has entered the automatic stage, right?"】
【"That's right, at this point, even if I die, the technique will continue to operate."】
【Heartless said confidently: "Hehe, you might know that this technique exhausted my savings. After all, I had to bring the Servant here. Let her activate the Noble Phantasm several times, and now there is nothing left."】
【Second cast his gaze toward the suitcase at his feet and said: "What was originally in the suitcase were 'mages under sealing designation' and the 'Magic Eye holders' you stored?"】
【"Oh my."】
【Heartless was a bit surprised, as if he didn't expect the Second to guess even this.】
【Second: "I once deduced this at the beginning: the Heartless of today is not the real Heartless, but Kuro, the disciple who disappeared ten years ago, but I always felt this statement was wrong. If Kuro replaced Heartless's identity, then Heartless's actions behind the scenes of many cases were too clever."】
【"After analyzing this technique, I have to sigh, it is truly the handwriting of the department head of Modern Magic Science. A disciple who has only taken formal courses for a few years cannot complete such a technique."】
【Heartless smiled faintly: "Hehe, according to your style, you should have confirmed Kuro's background, right?"】
【"You mean Adashino Kurou, right?"】
【Second said seriously: "Of course I also confirmed that part with Kayano Rishiri. Indeed, the Adashino family is a bit special for mages, but the level of the technique used is not high enough to compare with the department head."】
