"It's This World's Evil."
Yustizafull quietly shared the reason she knew with Bai Luo.
It turned out that when the Holy Grail descended just now.
This World's Evil chose the last two remaining Masters, preparing to let them see the malice overflowing in the Holy Grail.
Sakura, because she was in Bai Luo's Inherent Barrier, was unaffected.
But Wei Gong Qie Si didn't have such good luck.
Just like in the anime, Wei Gong Qie Si fell into an illusion and was tortured by the trolley problem.
Then, in the choice between Wu Mi, Ilya, and Irisviel.
He first killed Wu Mi, then shot Ilya, and finally strangled Irisviel to death.
In other words, for Irisviel, Kiritsugu, for his ideals, his dream of being a hero of justice, personally abandoned her and her daughter.
However much Irisviel cared about Wei Gong Qie Si before, she now utterly detests this man.
"Bai Luo."
Artoria, supporting Irisviel, pleaded: "Can you take Irisviel and little Ilya with you?"
"Well…"
Bai Luo shrugged, he didn't really care.
Anyway, the Inherent Barrier was so vast, just one Sakura, and taking a group of people through, there wasn't much difference.
Moreover, Irisviel and her daughter were easy to support.
The already established town didn't lack these few resources.
'It might be good to find Sakura a playmate.'
Bai Luo thought of Ilya, he quite liked this white-haired, red-eyed loli.
Just right to pair with Sakura, forming a magical girl duo.
"Alright then."
Bai Luo waved his hand, bringing Irisviel and the Ogres into the Inherent Barrier.
There was a villa there, the very one Bai Luo had constructed in Fuyuki City.
The newly formed Inherent Barrier was vast and empty, with nothing inside.
But Bai Luo could add things to it.
"Oh, right."
Bai Luo looked at Yustizafull: "Is it alright if I take the Einzbern castle?"
"Of course!"
Yustizafull smiled: "I was just about to tell you about that."
After all, it was her home for several hundred years.
If possible, taking it along would naturally be for the best.
"Let's go, to the Einzbern castle."
With that, Bai Luo led everyone directly through space.
As for the matters in Fuyuki City, Bai Luo had already done his utmost by blocking the descent of This World's Evil for them.
More than that, he would leave it to Wei Gong Qie Si, who remained there, to handle.
And Kirei Kotomine...
This fellow was not killed by Wei Gong Qie Si, but successfully escaped from his hands.
Unfortunately, Kirei Kotomine was unlucky and eventually died under the blade of the Oniwaban Ogre who had been watching them, which could be considered revenge for Sakura's father's death.
'Tim, rest in peace.'
'I will take good care of Sakura for you.'
Thinking this, Bai Luo stepped out of the spatial rift.
Appearing before him was the ancient castle of Einzbern, standing amidst the ice and snow.
The barrier used to deal with human mages was meaningless to Bai Luo and his group.
What's more, there was Yustizafull, the insider leading the way.
The entire process of taking over Einzbern Castle could be described as smooth sailing.
As for the current head of the Einzbern and the guards...
The latter were mostly artificial humans without self-will, and the few remaining ones were controlled by Bai Luo's Ogres.
And the so-called current head, Acht.
He simply didn't exist.
Yes, didn't exist.
Acht, real name Jubstacheit von Einzbern.
A white-haired old man who looked like Gandalf.
But in reality, he was merely an artificial intelligence created by the disciples of the Third Magician, used to control the castle's core.
Full name: Golem Jubstacheit.
Acht was merely the eighth-generation humanoid terminal.
"The wrong path ends here."
Yustizafull's appearance greatly surprised Acht.
But he didn't show much excitement.
After all, he was just a puppet; all human emotions were merely simulations of programs.
"Snap!"
Bai Luo snapped his fingers, and all the magic within the entire Einzbern Castle collapsed.
Along with it died the empty shell named Acht.
And seeing the old man fall, Yustizafull showed no pity.
··········
All she had was disgust and numbness.
Too long.
In this tomb-like castle, as a puppet, she had been bound for far too long.
Only today did the wind of freedom finally blow into her world.
"Please wait a moment."
"Let me first cleanse this place for you, Lord Bai Luo."
Yustizafull respectfully bowed to Lord Bai Luo, who nodded and said, "Hmm, thank you for your trouble."
"Would you like me to arrange a maid to give you a tour?"
"No need."
Bai Luo smiled, "If it's about giving me a tour, isn't there a better candidate?"
"Ah, I almost forgot, there's also little Irisviel."
"Then I shall take my leave."
.. .. ....
Yustizafull elegantly bowed to Bai Luo, then slowly departed.
However, looking at Yustizafull's retreating figure, Bai Luo inexplicably felt a surge of killing intent.
If nothing unexpected happened, Einzbern would be flowing with blood today.
"How terrifying, how terrifying."
"Is this the Winter Saint?"
With such emotion, Bai Luo released Irisviel and Artoria, who was accompanying her, from his Inherent Barrier.
"Lord Demon King!"
"Bai Luo!"
"Where is this? Einzbern Castle?"
As soon as the two women emerged, they quickly recognized the place.
"I brought Yustizafull to reclaim her assets."
Bai Luo told the two women what had happened here, as well as the truth about Acht and the Einzbern.
"How could this be..."
Even Irisviel hadn't expected things to be this way.
Everything, absolutely everything, was fake.
Everyone was just an experimental subject for a certain plan.
"Irisviel..."
Artoria didn't know how to comfort her, so she could only change the subject, "At least you still have Ilya, don't you?"
"That scoundrel Wei Gong Qie Si!"
Artoria grasped her hand, wanting to give her a sense of security through this gesture: "I will protect you too, Irisviel."
"Thank you, Saber."
Irisviel was very touched; she knew she couldn't continue to be downcast: "You're right, I still have Ilya to take care of." Four.
