Earth Princess? No, it's Fujimaru Ritsuka!

The Black Grail looked at Fujimaru Ritsuka with some impatience, its scarlet eyes filled with dissatisfaction.

"Alright, then I can make a wish, okay?" Fujimaru Ritsuka raised the corners of her mouth.

"Hurry up," the Black Grail said impatiently.

"Okay... My wish is to help me destroy that Goetia from the Grand Temple of Time."

Fujimaru Ritsuka spoke slowly and deliberately.

"Hmm, it's a piece of cake... Hey, who did you say?"

Black [Alice] was stunned for a moment, and then her evil yet elegant body froze.

"Kill Goetia, me?"

Chapter 251 Fallen in the Flames

"..."

Black [Alice] glanced at Fujimaru Ritsuka, stared blankly for a long time, and then shouted loudly to Artoria and Tokiomi Tohsaka.

"Do you seek the root of the problem or the restoration of your homeland?"

Black [Alice] ignored Fujimaru Ritsuka's question.

"Don't ignore me!"

Fujimaru Ritsuka waved her hand: "Help me defeat Goetia! I've already made a wish. It's just a mere Demon King. Aren't you an omnipotent wish-granting machine?"

—The Black Grail once again ignored Fujimaru Ritsuka.

"I can grant most of your wishes, but only at a very low price, that's all."

The Black Grail looked at Tokiomi Tohsaka and Artoria.

"Wait a minute, Goetia... help me destroy Goetia!"

Fujimaru Ritsuka astutely noticed that the Black Grail seemed to have changed its wording, from "can grant any wish" to "can grant most wishes"...

"Didn't you say you could grant any wish? Goetia burned all of human history, completely severing humanity's past and present. You help me take care of him!"

Fujimaru Ritsuka started rambling on again.

She kept nagging in Black [Alice]'s ear, as if Black [Alice] wouldn't give up until she fought Goetia to the death.

“Goetia…”

"Aren't you annoying?!"

Black [Alice] finally erupted completely under the bombardment of Fujimaru Ritsuka's Demon King!

"Even the Black Grail, with all the evil in this world, has only accumulated 60 years of Fuyuki's magical power! How can it compare to the Goetia, which has burned away thousands of years of human evil? If you're so powerful, why don't you go and fight the Goetia yourself!"

The Black Grail glared at Fujimaru Ritsuka with a face full of resentment.

"Any other wishes?"

The all-powerful wish-granting machine, the evil Black Grail, eagerly scanned Artoria and Tokiomi Tohsaka.

"Is it possible to reach the source...?" Tokiomi Tohsaka's heart was filled with longing.

In any case, the prospect of reaching the root by paying a price was very appealing to Tokiomi Tohsaka.

"Yes, no problem."

The Black Grail smirked: "Of course. Do you wish to reach the Root? I can grant your wish—"

"Then I..."

Tokiomi Tohsaka was about to speak.

Suddenly, Fujimaru Ritsuka's eyes turned red, and she transformed into the appearance of a fallen True Ancestor, with a sharp katana appearing in her hand at some unknown time.

"【Immaculate Consciousness - The Realm of Emptiness】"

"What's with the whole mausoleum rising up like IV sobbing sulfur..."

Tokiomi Tohsaka suddenly felt a chill run through his body.

Fujimaru Ritsuka looked at Tohsaka Tokiomi with the same wicked gaze:

"No need for the Holy Grail, Mr. Tohsaka is so elegant..."

Fujimaru Ritsuka said leisurely, her tone gentle: "If you want to see the Root so much, then I'll send you to see her. There's no need to trouble the Holy Grail."

Tokiomi Tohsaka loosened his shoulders, shrank his neck, and embarrassed beads of sweat rolled down his forehead.

"I'm sorry, the Tohsaka family will definitely go to the Root through legitimate means."

I'm scared.

Tokiomi Tohsaka chickened out.

This is something we simply can't win.

Fujimaru Ritsuka could completely annihilate him, including his soul, with a single glance; for Tokiomi Tohsaka, this was far too terrifying.

"What? You should have said so earlier." Fujimaru Ritsuka smirked.

“I know many people who are connected to the Root, and I’m even familiar with the Root’s consciousness. If you want to go in, just let me know, and I’ll personally take you there.”

For those at a high level, the Root is not really anything lofty or profound. Magicians from the Age of Gods could basically align themselves with the Root through the power of the gods. It's just that modern magicians want to go to the Root, nothing more.

"No...no need, I was just joking and said it casually, I didn't mean to offend you."

Tokiomi Tohsaka gave up.

He wasn't about to risk his life over something like this, and he could even accept the price of gambling the Black Grail to reach the Root...

But judging from this,

He might not be able to accept the consequences of angering Fujimaru Ritsuka.

"What? It was just a joke..."

Fujimaru Ritsuka gave a forced smile and nodded slightly: "I thought you really wanted to use the Black Grail to make a wish."

"Uh, I had no such intention."

Tokiomi Tohsaka's forehead was beaded with sweat from his nervousness and haste.

"That's good, that's good. And... does Artoria want to make a wish too?"

Fujimaru Ritsuka then looked at Artoria and asked.

“I will not use such means to achieve my wishes. If it is truly possible to save my homeland, I hope to use more reasonable means.”

As an upright knight king, he naturally wouldn't choose this method, and Artoria also realized that the Black Grail definitely had some ulterior motive. Something containing human malice could never be so kind as to save Britain.

"Then it's happily decided! Clap clap!"

Fujimaru Ritsuka clapped her hands and laughed, her scarlet eyes mischievously glancing at the Black Grail:

"The Black Grail, corrupted by all the evil of this world, the omnipotent wish-granting machine, quickly grant my wish and go and destroy Goetia, who is currently in the Grand Temple of Time!"

The Black Grail: ...

The Holy Grail wish is a fixed rule that uses the power of miracles and twisted malice to fulfill evil desires.

She couldn't resist, could she?

"Can't do it?"

Fujimaru Ritsuka asked, "Aren't you capable of destroying the [world]? Go and destroy Goetia for me, or else..."

The blond vampire stared at the Black Grail with bloodshot eyes, gathering crimson star breath in his hand. His voice was chilling, and his gaze was icy.

"If you can't do it, then there's nothing for you to do here."

This is no longer a wish, but a real threat.

"..."

The Black Grail never expected to encounter such an unreasonable person one day.

She is a product of the Third Law, an incomplete being twisted by human evil, yet with such limited power she dares to challenge the so-called King of Demons...

Isn't this just suicide?

"Change your wish...?"

The black [Holy Grail] whispered, "I definitely can't win against Goetia. How about I kill Solomon instead? Think about it, that's Solomon, the master of Goetia, the Grand Magician... If we destroy him, then the so-called Demon King Goetia will be nothing."

"Solomon?"

Fujimaru Ritsuka raised an eyebrow, narrowed her eyes at the other person, and a barely perceptible chill flashed across her scarlet eyes.

What is this guy talking about—Yi Ying Leng I Qi wuIXIV Cu Ba?

"Yes."

The Black Grail spoke in a voice filled with both sweetness and malice: "Now is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. All we need to do is kill Solomon..."

"The Judgment of the Stars—!"

"What…"

Fujimaru Ritsuka's fist, shimmering with the breath of a crimson star, suddenly unleashed unprecedentedly powerful kinetic energy. Although this single, explosive strike was not as powerful as the full-power release of the Curry Stick, it was still just a single punch.

An inexplicable surge of anger welled up inside me.

If it were Solomon, for some reason, Fujimaru Ritsuka's intuition told her that this person was very important, and... after so long, she had more or less guessed a certain possibility.

Combining Holmes's speculations from Singularity Six with the reactions of Princess Ayaka and even Sajō Ayaka... this answer is almost certainly correct...

Then,

boom!

The light in Fujimaru Ritsuka's hand burst forth instantly, the scorching torrent instantly condensing into one point, and the fist light shot out.

The radiance instantly engulfed the figure before them.

Fujimaru Ritsuka's face was cold, covered in frost, as she slowly raised her head to look at the black sun floating in the sky.

Black [Alice] is merely a manifested illusion.

That is the true, impure thing contained within the Holy Grail, [all the evil of this world].

"Well, that's enough fun. It's time to end it all..."

Fujimaru Ritsuka murmured.

She mentioned the silly little Kama who was so frightened that he lost consciousness and shrank back into his childlike form, as well as young Rin Tohsaka who had fainted countless times.

"But the Holy Grail is really boring. It can't even defeat Goetia. So keeping it is of no use to humanity."

Thinking this, Fujimaru Ritsuka turned around and called out to Artoria and Tokiomi Tohsaka.

"You two, do me a favor and take these two children away from the Greater Grail."

Her voice echoed in the empty cave.

"I will destroy all the evil in this world above the Greater Grail."

As Fujimaru Ritsuka spoke, she handed Rin and Kama Sakura over.

"Rin, my daughter, and Sakura..."

Tokiomi Tohsaka looked at his beloved daughter with complicated emotions.

In fact, sometimes he couldn't tell whether his feelings for Rin Tohsaka were paternal love or expectations for the path of magic.

And Sakura...

Tokiomi Tohsaka cannot say that he does not love her.

However, the Tohsaka family's magic crest can only be passed down to one person, and Sakura's aptitude is so outstanding. It would be such a pity if she couldn't inherit the magic crest...

If the Mage Association were to find out about Sakura's abilities, who knows what would happen? These are things that Tokiomi Tohsaka cannot predict.

"Although I would love to fight alongside you, since you have entrusted your child to me, I will do my utmost to protect her."

Altria nodded.

Fujimaru Ritsuka smiled and said, "Then I'll leave it to you, Miss Artoria."

May you have great success in your military endeavors!
