Next, Shen Er, what's your business?

Chapter 4 The Ins and Outs
The Holy Grail is a miraculous object derived from Christian legends.

But in the world of magic, it has a special definition, which is synonymous with miracles, the product of the third magic "soul materialization", and is recognized as an attempt to reach the "root" of the omnipotent wishing machine.

The root is also called "the vortex of the root", the starting point of all, including all the "causes", and there is an effect when there is a cause, so in terms of existence, this is the "ultimate knowledge".That is the ultimate goal that all magicians dream of, and it is also the dreamland that human beings cannot reach in their lifetime.

Legend has it that when humans go to the vortex of the root, they will grasp the fundamental causes and laws of everything in the world, and can modify the pattern and order of the world. In other words, they will create new worlds and destroy old ones.

This is what makes the impossible possible.

Because of this, everything in Fuyuki City was born.

About 180 years ago, Sakura's ancestor Tosaka Yongren, the founder of the Matou family Maqili Zorgen (Matou Zouyan), and Yustissa Ritz, who has the title of "Winter Maiden" Lech von Einzbern secretly constructed the Holy Grail system in Fuyuki City.

Tohsaka Nagato offers Fuyuki City, a sacred place where powerful magic power is stored.

Maqili Zorgen constructed a ritual of seven masters and servants fighting each other to collect magic power and summon the "Holy Grail" - "Holy Grail War".

Justesa Justesa von Einzbern dedicated herself and became the core of the entire system.

The "Holy Grail War" takes 60 years as a cycle, and it has gone through three times so far, each time falling short due to different reasons.

The first three, Tohsaka Yongren, passed on the dream of "reaching the root" to future generations and passed away naturally.

For his own ambition, Maqili Zorgen did everything possible to prolong his life until he forgot his original intention.The only thing left is that if Shen Er hadn't stepped in, he would have been driven by obsession to continue his life and make arrangements, leading to a series of tragedies.

Justesa Justesa von Einzbern still sits at the center of the Holy Grail system, but her personality has long since disappeared.

This is Shinji's cognition about the Holy Grail system in Fuyuki City, most of which are correct, only a slight deviation appeared in the end.

As the core of the system, the personality of the "Holy Maiden of Winter" has not completely disappeared, but has been preserved in the system in the form of residue, and because of a coincidence, she had contact with Shinji after time travel, and finally became like a ghost, a ghost way of the world.

Sounds nonsense, right?Shen Er himself thought it was nonsense, and his first reaction was that he had fallen into some kind of unknown "magic". After all, Xingyue is not low in mystery, and nothing strange happened.

However, with the deepening of contact, Shen Er is basically sure that this is indeed the personality of Justesa, to be precise, it is a part of the personality, carrying the memory of Justesa, but it is not as rational as the extreme coldness of himself.

According to Justesa herself, it was the influence of a servant at one end of the Holy Grail system.

Unlike the Tohsaka family and the Matou family, the Einzbern family is a cyborg family, and Justisa herself is also a cyborg.She stayed in the Einzbern Castle from birth until she went to Japan to construct the Holy Grail system, and had no contact with humans, so she had almost no human emotions.

When the Holy Grail system was completed, Justesa's body died, but her soul and personality did not dissipate directly.Of course, if there is no external force to intervene, the already indifferent personality will not last long.

At this time, the first Holy Grail War began. Servants continued to die, and existence was injected into the Holy Grail system.

Servants are clones of Heroic Spirits. Heroic Spirits are the existence of heroes whose great achievements are left as legends after death and who have become objects of faith.Beings who become Heroic Spirits will be freed from the shackles of time and move to the Seat of Heroic Spirits located outside the world.Heroic spirits transcend the time axis, and they will be summoned in all ages, whether it is the past or the future.

However, only the "world" can summon the body of the heroic spirit. Unfortunately, human beings cannot summon the body of the heroic spirit, but can only summon servants who are clones.

Even if they are avatars, their existence is still extremely powerful and dazzling. Their emotions have affected the gradually dissipated personality of Justesa, making it more and more humane, and derived the obsession to witness to the end. This obsession was continued by the miracle of the third method, and became the current Justisa.

If everything is normal, Justesa's personality doesn't have to do anything but witness silently.

However, an unexpected turn of events happened.In the third Holy Grail War 59 years ago, Einzbern illegally summoned the No.8 servant, which caused the Holy Grail to be polluted and lost its proper function, and even the existence of Justesa’s personality was due to The existence of foreign objects becomes more and more unstable, and if this continues, the beginning of the Fourth Holy Grail War is the time when Justesa's personality disappears.

Destiny is so wonderful, two wills that want to survive broke the limitation of life and death at the same moment, met each other, and made a contract to help each other.

With the help of Justesa, Shen Er gains power, kills Zou Yan, and opens up the future.

By virtue of the contract with Shinji, Justesa appears in the form of a spirit body similar to a follower, and plans to use Shinji's hand to drive out the things that pollute the Holy Grail and restore the original appearance of the Holy Grail.

Justesa's body is the core of the Holy Grail system, and her personality naturally holds a small part of the magic power of the Holy Grail system.Although compared with the whole Holy Grail, this part of the magic power is negligible, but it is still powerful for human beings. It is strong enough to open up the meridians of Shen Er's body. Ahem, it is a magic circuit closed due to the decline of the family.

Under the perfusion of magic power, Shen Er successfully touched the magic circuit, obtained the aptitude to match a member of the ancient magician family, and in the process accidentally came into contact with the origin of the blood, which triggered a short-term "spiritual seance" phenomenon .

The Matou family originated from the Zorgen family in Europe. Its origin can be traced back to the great heroes of the age of mythology. Even among the heroic spirits, it belongs to the first-class Perseus. Perhaps it is the reason why it is called "Second Master of the Age of Gods". Perseus The essence of Erseus is very similar to that of Shen Er, and the two get along very well.

After the "spiritual seance" was over, Shen Er suddenly found that he had obtained an extremely powerful hole card - Perseus' "Noble Phantasm".

Noble Phantasm, as the ultimate armament of the servant, the materialized miracle, the proof of the hero held by the servant, the crystallization of human beings' longing for miracles, the strongest weapon called "noble fantasy", is the servant's own symbol.

This is the greatest reliance for Shen Er to kill Zang Yan with the body of a six-year-old child and gain his future.

It's a pity that Perseus's Noble Phantasm is very powerful, and Shinji himself is too weak. With his magic power, he can only support a single Noble Phantasm for a few minutes, and the consumption of using multiple pieces at the same time will further increase.

This status quo determined that the matter of killing Zou Yan must be resolved as quickly as possible. If it could not end before the body could no longer hold on, everything would be over.

Therefore, before doing it, Shinji thought about it countless times, simulated it countless times, and finally chose to launch a surprise attack when Zouken made a move on Sakura.

Only at that time, Zou Yan's defense is the weakest, and only at that time will there be a chance to destroy Zou Yan's body and soul at the same time, and truly kill Zou Yan without leaving any future troubles.

In order to ensure nothing goes wrong, Shen Er has been preparing several months in advance, including but not limited to taking advantage of Zouken's business trips at home to artificially create loopholes in Zouken's underground magic workshop; specially contact Kariya who has been away from home for many years, please He settled Tsuruya and the possible servants.

The previous raids and killings seemed easy and done in one go, but they were actually extremely thrilling. One wrong step would lead to an abyss.

When sending Sakura back to the room, Shen Er was at the end of his strength, his brain power, heart power, magic power, and physical strength were all exhausted, and he relied on one breath to hold on.

When the result was clear, the breath dissipated, and then fainted on the spot.

When he fainted, Shinji was still smiling.

For a home without haze, for a bright future within reach.

Even if he has to bear a heavy burden, he is willing.

PS: UBW line, Rin said: "Although this family has been exhausted, Matou's blood family still has traces of genetic magic circuits. The heart of Ilya Sufir, this kind of thing like a nuclear furnace is stuffed In the body, the closed circuit will also be forcibly opened." Justissa used a similar method, and it was relatively gentle.

PS2: Shen Er is not a pseudo-Servant, only the Noble Phantasm is obtained.

PS3: Master Chong often travels to various places on business, which provides favorable conditions for Shen Er's deception.

PS4: The explanation that should be explained is almost done, and then it is time to officially start the story belonging to the second master.
