"Thank you, Berserker."

After comforting Sakura Matou and making her fall asleep, Matou Kariya walked out of the bedroom and thanked Ailin once again.

"It's okay. I can't bear to see what happened to that child."

"Ah……"

"hiss……"

Matou Kariya was about to say something, but the crested insects on his body suddenly rioted, causing Matou Kariya to groan in pain and sweat all over his forehead.

However, fearing that his screams would disturb Sakura or even scare her, Matou Kariya bit his teeth until they bled, but refused to make a single sound.

A few minutes later, after having eaten enough flesh and blood from Matou Kariya's body, these engraved insects finally calmed down.

As for Matou Kariya, his whole body went limp, and he slowly slid down the wall, gasping for breath.

Seeing Matou Kariya's appearance, Ailin let out a sigh.

“Kareya, your physical condition is very poor.”

"That's why I didn't absorb your magic power when I was fighting that golden flash before."

"Otherwise, I'm afraid your body will be completely eaten by the marking bugs, and it won't be enough to support me in the battle with that guy."

"I'm sorry to make you laugh, Berserker."

Matou Kariya smiled helplessly at Ailin and said, "After summoning you, I originally thought that I could become the winner of this Holy Grail War and make a wish for Aoi, Rin, and Sakura to be happy."

"But now it seems that I have become a burden to you."

"With your power, Berserker, if you were a better Master, I'm afraid you would be able to defeat all the Servants in one night and become the final winner."

“No, you are wrong, Kariya.”

Hearing Matou Kariya's self-mockery, Ailin shook his head and rejected it, "There is also a compatibility between Servant and Master."

"It is precisely because of our high compatibility that you were able to summon me without using a medium."

"Even if I change a Master, I may be restricted because of our compatibility issues."

“So, don’t underestimate yourself, Kariya.”

"In this Holy Grail War, you are the most suitable Master for me."

Ailin's words were not meant to comfort Matou Kariya.

The facts are indeed as Ailin said.

Among the seven masters of this Holy Grail War, Tousaka Tokiomi, the perennial pot king, Ailin would not consider him.

Emiya Kiritsugu, this man is too self-centered and overestimates his own abilities.

A mere human being actually worries about issues like world peace. Who does he think he is?

Gaia or Alaya?

These two have never paid attention to this issue, so why should Emiya Kiritsugu care?

Moreover, it is managed in a way that measures lives by “killing one person to save two people”.

To put it nicely, Emiya Kiritsugu has lofty ideals and ambitions.

To put it bluntly, Emiya Kiritsugu cannot see his own position and is a madman.

Before Emiya Kiritsugu understood the weight of life, Ailin would never consider him.

Director Ken, although there is no teardrop mole on Ailin's face, the petty-minded Director Ken might definitely make things difficult for Ailin just because Ailin is much more handsome than himself. This is ruled out.

Father Mapo, before Gilgamesh revealed his true preferences, Father Mapo was still pretty good.

It’s a pity that the nature of the Joy Monster cannot be concealed by anything.

If this guy, Uryu Ryunosuke, summons Ailin, Ailin will definitely kill him immediately.

Waver Velvet, without the baptism of the spirit of the Great Emperor, is still just a rebellious teenager who longs for recognition from others.

"Really? I'm really honored."

Hearing the sincerity in Ailin's words, a smile appeared on Matou Kariya's face.

“By the way, Kariya.”

"Regarding the problems you and Sakura have, I have a Noble Phantasm that can heal you both."

Originally, Ailin had planned to break through his berserk ability before the end of the Holy Grail War and talk to Matou Kariya after he recovered his language.

But since I have already broken through tonight, I should explain it to Matou Kariya now.

"What? Berserker, are you telling the truth?"

Hearing what Ailin said, Matou Kariya ignored the pain from the backlash of the Marking Bug and immediately stood up and asked Ailin.

A pair of eyes full of hope.

In fact, after undergoing the transformation of the Marking Worms this year, Matou Kirei had long realized that whether it was himself or Sakura, if there were still Marking Worms left by Matou Zouken in their bodies, they would never be able to escape from Matou Zouken's clutches.

After summoning Ailin, Matou Kariya placed his hope on the Holy Grail, hoping that after obtaining the Holy Grail, he could make a wish to recover himself and Sakura.

At that time, Matou Kariya will take Sakura away from Fuyuki City and never come back.

But the previous battle between Berserker and Archer made Matou Kariya doubt whether he could obtain the Holy Grail.

Now Berserker actually said that he had a Noble Phantasm that could heal himself and Sakura. That was really, so lucky.

"Ah."

Ailin nodded: "I have a treasure in my hand. After it is released, it can corrode people into bones, and it can also restore the seriously injured and dying people to their best condition."

"You and Sakura's bodies have been riddled with holes by the Marking Bug. If you want to fully recover, I suggest that you first completely remove your flesh and blood, and then completely restore them to the state before you were harmed by the Marking Bug."

"Thank you, Berserker."

Matou Kariya looked at Ailin with his only remaining right eye, but when Matou Kariya was about to ask Ailin to heal him, he suddenly paused.

"Berserker, what you mean by returning to the state before the damage caused by the Crest Bug is that when I fully recover, I will become an ordinary person without any magic power in my body, right?"

"Ah."

Ailin nodded: "Kareya, there are no magic circuits in your body. The current magic circuits are completely transformed by the Crest Bug."

"Once fully recovered, there will naturally be no more magic power."

"That's it..."

Matou Kariya lowered his head and pondered. After a while, Matou Kariya raised his head again.

"Then Berserker, you should treat Sakura first."

"As for me, I still need these engraved insects to provide me with magic power."

Whether it is to kill Tōsaka Tokiomi or to seize the Holy Grail for Berserker, Matou Kariya himself needs magic power.

If he were to accept Berserker's treatment now, without the support of his own magic power, Berserker would definitely be sent back to Valhalla because he had no Master to provide magic power.

By that time, it would be impossible for him to kill Tōsaka Tokiomi.

Likewise, every Heroic Spirit who becomes a Servant has his or her own wishes.

I think Berserker must have had a wish for this since he was willing to accept his summons and become a Servant to participate in the Holy Grail War.

If I lose the chance to fight for the Holy Grail just because I healed myself, I would be too sorry to Berserker.

Ailin glanced at Matou Kariya. Based on his hundreds of years of experience in the world of death and his understanding of Matou Kariya, Ailin could see what Matou Kariya was thinking.

Although, after Matou Kariya lost his magic power, Ailin could only stay in reality for a few hours because there was no Master to provide magic power, but as long as Ailin found a magician with magic power and signed a contract within these few hours, he could continue to participate in the Holy Grail War.

At worst, if Matou Kariya has no magic power, does that mean Sakura has no magic power too?

However, this is Matou Kariya's own will, and Ailin respects Matou Kariya's choice.

"Then I will treat Sakura first."

"Well, please, Berserker!"

When he opened the door, contrary to what Matou Kariya had expected, Sakura was not asleep, but was just staring at Matou Kariya and Ailin.

"Sakura, Grandpa put something very scary in your body. Now Uncle Berserker wants to kill that scary thing for you. Are you afraid?"

"Not afraid."

Matou Sakura shook her head, and her firm tone made Matou Kariya's murderous intent towards Tōsaka Tokiomi and Matou Zōken even stronger.

"What a good kid."

"But don't worry, Sakura. Uncle's movements are very fast and it won't hurt you."

Ailin reached out and stroked Sakura Matou's head a few times, then said to her with a smile.

Then, Ailin released the spiritual pressure from his palm.

"Weimian!"

This is a very practical Reiatsu trick.

A ball of spiritual pressure of moderate intensity gathered in the palm of his hand, instantly knocking the person in front of his palm unconscious.

Although it is very likely that Sakura Matou, who has endured the torture of the Sealing Bug for a year, can survive the pain of having her flesh and blood corroded, since it is a treatment, Ailin naturally does not want Sakura Matou to endure such pain.

Black and red space ripples appeared, and Ailin reached out and pulled out the Zanpakutō of Captain Unohana Retsu of the 4th Division of the Gotei 13 from the space ripples.

“Bankai——all gone!”

Boundless blood color enveloped Matou Kariya's vision.

He suddenly found that he seemed to be surrounded by an endless sea of ​​blood.

A blood-colored vortex of waves enveloped Sakura Matou, and after a few seconds, the blood-colored vortex of waves dissipated.

At this time, Matou Kariya discovered that everything around him had returned to normal.

It was as if everything he had seen before was an illusion.

However, looking at Sakura, whose hair had returned to black color, being held in Berserker's arms, Matou Kariya knew that what he had seen before was not an illusion.

The best evidence is that Sakura, who had purple hair, turned back into Sakura with black hair.

"Berserker."

Seeing Sakura return to her lovely appearance a year ago, Matou Kariya looked up and said to Ailin: "I don't want Sakura to fall into the hands of that old immortal guy in the future."

"Tomorrow night, let's go to the Matou residence and give that guy a ride."

"Ah."

After deciding on tomorrow's action, Matou Kariya and Ailin left the bedroom and closed the door.

Suddenly, Matou Kariya seemed to remember something and asked Ailin, "By the way, Berserker."

"You have broken through the abilities attached by the employment agency. What effect has that had on you?"

"Frenzy" is the representative ability of the Berserker class.

When under the influence of the "Frenzy" ability, a circle of black and red flames would linger around Ailin's body.

And now, the "Frenzy" ability was broken by Ailin, allowing Ailin to regain his language ability. Matou Kariya didn't believe that it had no effect on Ailin.

However, he also knew that what were summoned into reality by the Holy Grails were not the real bodies of the Heroic Spirits, but only the Servants constructed by the Holy Grails with magic power. They only belonged to the Heroic Spirits at a certain stage and at a certain moment.

The same Heroic Spirit, when summoned with different occupations, has different abilities.

Even if it is summoned at different times, there will be huge differences.

Now that Berserker has broken through his frenzy, the most obvious thing is that the extremely terrifying black and red flames are no longer around Berserker's body.

“There is indeed some impact.”

"The most important thing is that my ability values ​​​​except for luck and magic have all been reduced by one level."

"Ok?"

Matou Kariya was startled, and he slightly opened the index and middle fingers of his right hand, placed them in front of his intact left eye, and looked at Berserker.

Job Description: Berserker

Real name: XX

Strength: B++

Durability: B++

Agility: B++

Magic: A++

Lucky: A

Noble Phantasm: EX

After seeing Berserker's ability value, Matou Kariya felt a chill in his heart.

He clearly remembered that when Berserker was summoned, all of its ability values ​​were above A.

Judging from the ability value, Berserker is now at least three times weaker than at the beginning.

Seeing the expression on Matou Kariya's face, Ailin could naturally guess what Matou Kariya was thinking. Ailin smiled at him and said, "Don't worry, Kariya."

"The impact of my ability value on me is not as great as you think."

"In fact, the most important thing to me is magic."

"As long as the magic power is sufficient, my strength will not be greatly affected."

"Otherwise, keep reading."

After hearing Berserker's words, Matou Kariya continued to check Berserker's abilities.

Soon, Matou Kariya saw Ailin's new abilities.

Magic Release: A++ (You can release magic to bless yourself, greatly improving all your attributes. The more magic you consume, the stronger the blessing you get)

Upon seeing this ability, Matou Kariya felt relieved.

Indeed, as Berserker said, with A++ level magic power released, as long as Berserker has enough magic power, he can raise all his ability values ​​to A++ level.

At the same time, Matou Kariya also discovered that as Berserker regained the ability to speak, the two question marks in the Noble Phantasm column were also unlocked.

Noble Phantasm:

艾林

Grade: C

Category: Anti-personnel treasure

Attack Range: 1-99

Description: Omitted

Unlimited Swordsmanship

Level: Ex

Category: Inherent barrier

Attack Range: 1-99

Description: Omitted

Seeing the abilities of Berserker's two Noble Phantasms, Matou Kariya was even more surprised.

The first Noble Phantasm was only of C rank, but Matou Kariya didn't care.

But the second treasure is actually an inherent barrier!

The inherent barrier is the ability to use one's own mental world to erode the physical world and replace the world with its own size.

This is also the biggest magic trick that is closest to "magic".

With such powerful abilities, Matou Kariya didn't know how he would lose this Holy Grail War.

Even if he were to fight that Servant in golden armor again, Matou Kariya felt that Berserker, with his Noble Phantasm released, was definitely stronger than that golden Servant.
