"As long as you can find that thing, I can keep you alive in this Holy Grail War."

  "At that time, let's talk about Illya.".

Chapter 225

  Fuyuki City, Xindu.

  When Irisviel and Artoria left, it was past two in the morning.

  Speaking of which, Mordred originally wanted to keep the two of them here for the night.

  Especially Artoria - from the very beginning, he had always prepared a room for Artoria.All the facilities and utensils are arranged according to Artoria's favorite appearance.

  But unfortunately, Artoria did not appreciate it.

  "It doesn't matter if it doesn't work this time, next time, definitely next time."

  Mordred said with a smile and sent Artoria and Irisviel out of the house.

  And when he came back, he found that CC was half lying on the sofa, staring at the messy living room, as if thinking about something.

  And, from time to time, some murmurs are issued.

  "Something hotter than hope, deeper than despair—"

  CC thought, there was already a faint guess in his heart.

  However, it is precisely because of this.She was even more worried about Irisviel's future.

  "I have embraced a hope that is hotter than the sun, and I have walked alone in a world of despair for five hundred years."

  "So, I can know what that thing is."

  "But what about her - can she really find that thing?"

  CC asked suspiciously.

  She felt that Mordred might be deliberately embarrassing Irisviel.

  How could it be possible for her to fully comprehend a truth like this that takes her whole life to understand in less than seven days.

  But the expression on Mordred's face was quite serious.

  "She has no choice."

  As Mordred spoke, he gently embraced Illya who was sitting next to him.

  Probably because of what Irisviel said to her before leaving.This time, Ilya was very obedient.

  Not only did he not resist, but he adjusted his posture slightly so that Mordred could hold her in a more comfortable posture.

  At the same time, she propped up her ears, held her breath, and listened to the conversation between Mordred and CC.

  She knew the conversation involved her mother's fate, so she had to brace herself and bcef the words, even if she couldn't understand them.

  Wait for the opportunity, and then secretly relay it to your mother.

  Elijah thought well.

  And Mordred didn't mean to shy away from her at all, and said very bluntly.

  "The Holy Grail is the product of hope, and inside it resides the will of the Holy Maiden of Einzbern."

  "She pinned all her hopes on [saving all mankind] in that cup."

  "And at the same time, the Holy Grail is tainted by the evils of this world."

  "Angola Manuel bestowed on the Holy Grail the malice and despair of all mankind."

  "So, the Holy Grail now has actually become a combination of extreme hope and extreme despair."

  "And if Irisviel wants to maintain herself in such an environment, so that her soul will not be assimilated by hope and swallowed by despair. She must let herself transcend these two emotions and achieve real, emotional the ultimate."

  "In this way, she has a chance of continuing to live."

  At this point, Mordred's words stopped abruptly, not letting Ilya know more.

  ——Because she is not suitable to know these things now.

  And CC is also silent.

  Because of his familiarity with Patuli Noreki, CC had a general understanding of the concept of "magic" from her.

  In CC, the "extreme emotion" in Mordred's mouth is probably another way of expressing some kind of magic.

  "The ultimate in emotion - the materialization of the soul."

  "That is... the third method?"

  ……

  Since it was too late, Mordred and CC simply tidied up the dining table, then washed and went to bed.

  It is worth mentioning that when he was sleeping, CC slept with Mordred in his arms.

  Mordred was sleeping with Illya in his arms.

  As for Sakura... She can only sleep in her own room with her doll in her arms.

  When they woke up again, it was already bright outside.

  "It's already noon."

  Mordred rubbed his sleepy eyes, looked at the electronic clock hanging on the wall, and couldn't help sighing that he was really a little old.

  Back then, even if he played hide-and-seek with Skaha all night in the forest, he would still be able to get up from the bed the next morning.

  But now, he has long since lost the mental head that didn't know what to be tired of back then.

  "Probably, this is called growth, right?"

  In front of the mirror, Mordred looked at the handsome face in front of him and sighed silently.

  He changed clothes under Illya's service.

  Since it was the first time for Illya to do this kind of thing, it took a lot longer than usual.

  But Mordred was patient, correcting her mistakes little by little, so that she could better adapt to the role she was about to play.

  Now Illya has been obedient a lot.

  And on the other hand.

  Sakura, who also got up from the bed, was helping CC to clean up the sanitation work that was not done yesterday, while thinking about where to go to play today.

  Playground?zoo?Church of the Holy Spirit?Or go to school to see your sister who is going to school?

  Sakura, who already has a considerable degree of self-management ability, has drawn up a series of plans for herself.

  Only, a little regrettable.

  Today's Sakura is destined to fail to realize these wishes.

  "Ding-dong-"

  The doorbell rang, and Sakura opened the door in doubt, and found an uncle with a skull mask and black tights standing outside the door.

  "Ah, it's Uncle Hassan."

  "Is there a problem?"

  Sakura asked suspiciously.

  She went to the Sanctuary Church quite a few times and fought against Kotomine Kirei many times.Naturally, he is also very familiar with his followers.

  Even when she is idle, she will have a friendship with these assassins and experience the fighting skills from Central Asia.

  And this Uncle Hassan in front of her is one of her targets for regular practice.

  But today, Hassan, who suddenly came to visit, wasn't here to catch up with Sakura.

  "The priest wants me to tell you something."

  "That golden servant, defected.".

Chapter 226

  Gilgamesh's betrayal is not good news.

  For Sakura, the appearance of Tokiomi Tosaka's body was even worse.

  Tohsaka Tokiomi's body was discovered by Kotomine Kirei and brought back to the Sanctuary Church.

  For a magician, being mortuary in the Church of the Holy Spirit is actually a very strange thing.

  But Kotomine Kirei couldn't care about that much anymore.

  "It was like this when I found out."

  "Judging from the swelling of the body and the blood on the floor, the time of death should have been more than a day."

  "And then contacting Gilgamesh's disappearance and suspected mutiny... I have reason to suspect that this should be the hand of Gilgamesh."

  Inside the church, Kotomine Kirei briefly introduced the current situation to Sakura, who had arrived in a hurry.

  He was originally the representative of the Church of the Holy Church, and was very familiar with this kind of work of finding clues and finding the truth from these clues.

  And now Sakura can't hear so much at all.

  She responded casually, then hurried into the inner room and saw her father's body.

  And Aoi Tohsaka, who was also standing beside the corpse, was at a loss.

  The mother and daughter were relatively silent.

  Only those two lines of tears can tell their mutual feelings.

  Outside, Kotomine Kirei finally had the chance to face Mordred.

  "If I'm not mistaken, Mr. Basaka should know about Gilgamesh's betrayal and his killing of my teacher, right?"
