"Um... Saber, did you really have that purifying power ten years ago?" Irisviel asked another question.
"Yes, of course," King Arthur nodded.
"No wonder Shirou and Lancelot were able to become the final winners, successfully obtaining the Holy Grail and remaining there. So, the Greater Grail was purified back then?" Emiya Kiritsugu said.
Tia heard Emiya Kiritsugu's words and suddenly realized that this was explaining how Emiya Shirou won ten years ago, something Tia had always wanted to know!
At this moment, Tia really wanted to hear more information from Emiya Kiritsugu.
"Speaking of which, the other Servants all died in the end while fighting the demon god pillar that Matou Zouken turned into, and Irisviel who was corrupted by the black Holy Grail. Including you, Saber, you died too, right?" Irisviel said to King Arthur, "Could it be that you gave that purification power to Shirou and Lancelot, and that's why you died?"
"Ah, that's right," King Arthur nodded again in agreement.
Tia and Lancelot looked at each other, then looked at King Arthur.
"My King..." Lancelot was about to speak, but King Arthur interrupted him before he could say anything.
"Sir Lancelot, there's no need to thank me. This is what you deserve. After all, back then, only you and Shirou were the most suitable to obtain the Holy Grail," King Arthur said to Lancelot, "Because Shirou had already learned the magic to create Noble Phantasms at that time. So, with the help of Shirou's special Noble Phantasm, the purification power you released was more effective than mine. It's just a pity that the shadow of the black Angra Mainyu that came out of nowhere corrupted the Greater Grail again after it was successfully purified and the wish was made. We tried our best to close that hole in the Greater Grail again, which is how we have the situation now."
Hearing King Arthur's words, Tia had a general understanding of what happened ten years ago in this world. But there was still one thing Tia really wanted to know, and that was why they didn't know the Greater Grail had been purified.
And just at that moment, someone brought up this question.
"Saber, then why didn't anyone know the Greater Grail was purified ten years ago?" Tohsaka Rin also asked, then glanced at Emiya Kiritsugu.
"Yeah, I and Irisviel didn't know anything like this happened," Emiya Kiritsugu said as well.
"Have you forgotten how we got into that barrier back then?" King Arthur sighed.
"It seems Shirou did it? Kiritsugu, you said it was Shirou," Irisviel said.
"Yes, Shirou stabbed through that barrier with one strike, and we all went in. But unexpectedly, we were immediately met with endless black mud. We Masters all retreated immediately, and only Shirou and Lancelot were trapped inside and couldn't get out," Emiya Kiritsugu mentioned some details from the Fourth War ten years ago, "At the time, we all thought Shirou was dead for sure. But unexpectedly, with the collapse of Mount Enzou's Ryuudou Temple, the other Servants disappeared under the ruins. Only Shirou and Lancelot actually survived, and Lancelot even gained a physical body, and successfully rescued Irisviel who had been corrupted by the mud."
"Yeah, back then, all of us couldn't understand why Shirou and Lancelot became the final winners. I was also very curious about how Shirou saved me, but Shirou and Lancelot, both of you said you didn't know what happened and just survived like that. We had no way to investigate what exactly happened at Mount Enzou, which had turned into ruins. We could only muddle through like this for ten years. We didn't even know if the Greater Grail was still there, or where it went. Of course, now we all know. That Kotomine Kirei is still alive and took away the re-corrupted Greater Grail," Irisviel continued to follow Emiya Kiritsugu's words, which was equivalent to explaining everything to Tia again.
Tia finally understood the specific situation of the Fourth War that happened ten years ago in this world. But Tia couldn't help but compare the Fourth War of this world ten years ago with the Fourth War experienced with Gudako and Mash in the time virtual machine. And when she thought of the Fourth War experienced with Gudako and Mash, Tia really wanted to know whose memories that Fourth War was, what happened later in that Fourth War? And who was that sudden heroine X?
"Those black Angra Mainyu shadows, I'm afraid those are things that came out of the space crack I sealed," Aozaki Touko said at this moment.
"It should be," King Arthur nodded, "Shirou, do you know their origin?"
Tia shook her head.
Tia only knew a little more than them. There were even more questions that Tia had never even heard of.
"Then maybe, we should go take a look at that space crack again. At least we need to think of a way to completely destroy that space crack. My Master simply sealed the space crack, and it will inevitably reappear in the future," King Arthur suggested.
Everyone nodded.
However, the Greater Grail was still waiting for other people's wishes. After all, Aozaki Touko's wish was nothing to the Greater Grail's magic power.
Tia was naturally always paying attention to this. Seeing that everyone was planning to leave, she immediately thought of a wish.
"I want Alexander the Great's Noble Phantasm, the Wheel of Might!" Tia said to the Greater Grail at this moment.
The Wheel of Might was Tia's next seal, but Tia had always been unable to figure out how to break this seal. So, after thinking about it, she might as well use the wish from this Greater Grail to unlock this seal for herself.
Sure enough, the Greater Grail began to condense a chariot pulled by a bull flashing with lightning in front of Tia, but the Greater Grail only condensed a bull flashing with lightning for Tia, and then completely lost its light. There was nothing else.
Tia was stunned, and everyone else was stunned too.
"Isn't the Wheel of Might that Alexander the Great's Noble Phantasm?" Emiya Kiritsugu said immediately, he remembered this very clearly.
"Yes, I need that Noble Phantasm now, but it's a pity that the Greater Grail doesn't have enough magic power," Tia frowned, looking at the bull flashing with lightning.
At this moment, Tia suddenly remembered her Hummer.
"That's right! Lancelot! Combined, it's the Wheel of Might!" Tia shouted in her heart, and then excitedly summoned the Hummer.
"A car?"
Everyone was curious about this car, because Tia had never shown her flying Hummer since she came to this world. Now that she suddenly revealed it, it naturally shocked everyone greatly.
Tia didn't explain anything, but instead started to use her forging power to re-forge the Hummer into a new shape, and intertwined the Hummer with the bull flashing with lightning.
Everyone watched quietly, especially Emiya Kiritsugu, who had personally seen the Wheel of Might, watched very carefully.
Tia was seriously forging this true Noble Phantasm, the Wheel of Might. Soon, with the blessing of the true Bull of Heaven, this Wheel of Might was finally forged successfully.
With a "Moo~~~" of a cow, the Wheel of Might was officially born.
The appearance of this Wheel of Might was naturally no longer Alexander the Great's original one. After all, Tia herself didn't like ancient chariots, modern cars were much more comfortable to sit in.
So, this new Wheel of Might was actually a fusion of ancient chariots and modern cars, a combined modern cow car.
The car body was a luxurious, huge four-wheeled sedan. The rope on the sedan was fastened to the bull's body and head.
"Get in the car," Tia said, stepping into her Wheel of Might first.
Lancelot then said very gentlemanly: "Get in the car, Your Majesty, ladies and gentlemen."
King Arthur nodded to Lancelot: "A great Wheel of Might. If the King of Conquerors saw this, he would probably try to steal it."
"Hehehe, if he dares to steal it, I dare to beat him up. After all, he may not be my opponent now," Lancelot smiled at King Arthur, revealing a confident expression.
Then King Arthur got into the car.
As everyone got into the car, Lancelot was the last to step onto the carriage, honestly acting as the coachman, no, he should be called the cowman.
"Moo~~~~~~"
After the Bull of Heaven let out a cry, the Wheel of Might flew directly into the sky.
"This is much more convenient than an airplane," Irisviel said suddenly, feeling a little excited, "Kiritsugu, when can you buy me an airplane to play with?"
"Irisviel..." Emiya Kiritsugu was a little speechless.
Even King Arthur shivered suddenly, because King Arthur suddenly remembered having ridden in Irisviel's car before.
"Mommy, can you fly an airplane?" Illya asked curiously.
"Of course, Mommy knows a lot of things, it's just that I never had the chance to practice them," Irisviel said, with a very regretful expression on her face.
"Eh??? So, at the Einzbern family, Mommy could learn how to fly an airplane, why didn't I?" Illya said a little displeased.
"Well~~ of course Kiritsugu taught me. I remember once Kiritsugu personally flew over in an airplane. That airplane had a huge round head, with several huge pieces of iron on top of the head, and a long tail behind the head, with several not-so-big iron pieces on the tail. That thing is called a helicopter, and I learned how to fly a helicopter through Kiritsugu," Irisviel told Illya about her happy memories.
"Helicopters are too fragile. Even if I use them as Noble Phantasms to fly, they can't become combat tools at all," Lancelot added, "If there's a chance, fighter jets are the best to fly."
"Eh? Really?" Irisviel easily believed Lancelot's words.
Emiya Kiritsugu glanced at Lancelot out of the corner of his eye, and Lancelot said no more.
Before long, the cow car arrived at its destination, the hallway of the school building.
The Wheel of Might hovered in mid-air, while everyone else stood in the hallway. Turning their heads, they could see the Wheel of Might outside the window.
"Get ready, I'm going to unlock it," Aozaki Touko said, opening the seal.
In the next instant, the space crack reappeared in front of everyone. The space crack was still constantly spewing out human-shaped black shadows that looked like Angra Mainyu.
Everyone immediately started to clear these human-shaped black shadows, and at the same time, they were gradually approaching the space crack, planning to see what it looked like inside in person.
Tia, on the other hand, was thinking about how Cú Chulainn cleared the space crack before, and now Tia was planning to do the same.
Tia started to carefully calculate the various Noble Phantasms she currently possessed, and at the same time, looking at the space crack in front of her, she casually summoned the Nanaya short sword, rushed to the front of the space crack and slashed down, and the space crack immediately collapsed by half, leaving only the other half.
At this moment, the space crack, which had only half left, suddenly stopped spewing out the Angra Mainyu's human-shaped black shadows, but instead began to absorb them crazily.
The huge suction instantly made everyone unable to support it.
"Retreat!" King Arthur shouted, and at the same time released her Noble Phantasm at full power, directly almost dispersing the entire space crack, and naturally the huge suction force also dissipated.
Everyone seized the opportunity to run out immediately, and hurriedly got into the cow car to leave.
Tia and Lancelot were at the very back, waiting for everyone to get into the car before getting in themselves.
"Lancelot, you go first, I'll go on last," Tia said to Lancelot.
"Okay," Lancelot nodded, not being polite about who went first and who went last.
However, at this moment, suddenly the space crack reappeared, and the space crack, which had been almost destroyed by King Arthur's Noble Phantasm, instantly re-expanded, and generated a huge suction force.
Tia herself was accidentally sucked away directly.
Tohsaka Rin was sitting on the outside, and after seeing Tia being sucked away, Tohsaka Rin immediately cried out in a panic, and also came out of the car, and was naturally sucked away as well.
Lancelot, on the other hand, was completely unaffected as a Servant. To be more precise, Lancelot was actually the cow car itself. Apart from the Bull of Heaven, the entire luxurious carriage was Lancelot himself.
Lancelot didn't go to save Tia at this time, because Tia was sucked away too fast, just like an airplane in the sky encountering an air crash. The airplane had a big hole, and people were sucked out of the big hole and flew out at that speed.
"Sir Lancelot! What are you waiting for! Hurry up and save Shirou!" King Arthur shouted.
"I'm actually connected to Master, I can directly return to Master's body. The current Master may not want me to go over," Lancelot said at this moment.
