Rebirth of Japan's Sekiro Legacy

Chapter 405 The Holy Grail War
On the top of Mount Fuji, there is a rather lonely figure.

"I knew you would come here, so I waited ahead of time."

The tall figure turned his head and stared at Arakawa, with a faint smile in his eyes.

— Kishua Zellich Schubinaug

He became more interested in the fate of the boy in front of him.

Originally, in his calculation, Nozomi Arakawa would have a high probability of awakening his own origin when confronting the murderer, falling into the path of Shura, and finally ending up with the murderer.

However, facing a strong enemy, this kid actually suppressed the killing heart, and defeated the murderer with a strange technique of controlling lightning, which was beyond his expectation.

"What a coincidence, I also knew you would be waiting for me here, so I came here."

"Hmph," Kishua didn't care about Nomo Arakawa's slick tongue, and started talking about the business.

"How is the girl doing now?"

Nozomi Arakawa was silent for two seconds and said:
"It's gradually getting worse. I just noticed it not long ago. She coughs more often... I don't understand. No one has died. The vitality should be able to recover. How can the dragon's cough worsen?"

"Wrong, the vitality is still passing away. How many times have you died? How many times has the girl died? Let's not mention the number of these deaths for the time being. The murderer alone has consumed too much of her vitality. Forcibly conclude the contract, and finally The injured party must be the one who was forced to sign the contract, and the loophole in life has already appeared, and it will not help to fill it now." Kishua said, "But there is also a good thing, the dragon cough has not yet broken out, right?"

"That's not because you isolated the dragon cough from Qiu Xue's body." Wang Arakawa said coldly.

He learned about this from Akira Nakazawa. When Qiu Xuelong's cough symptoms began to occur, he was worried about the spread of the disease.

Ji Xiuya didn't care at all about Arakawa Wang's eyes.

"There is no other way, unless you can find a better solution."

Facing Kishua's counterattack, Nozomi Arakawa felt very powerless.

It is true that stopping the spread of the dragon's cough is a good thing, but the dragon's cough that was supposed to spread out to steal life force was forcibly trapped in Qiu Xue's body, which undoubtedly deepened Qiu Xue's weakness and the speed at which her life force was lost.

Although she can still go out to play now, the symptoms of the dragon cough are still very mild... But compared with the previous cough, the symptoms are actually a bit serious.And with the passing of vitality, the situation will only slowly deteriorate.

For this reason, his plan to stay at home during the summer vacation was also broken. He searched everywhere for a treatment method, and finally found the answer at the Coexistence Association - that is, to transform Qiu Xue into a vampire, and use the advantages of vampires to perform high-intensity treatment on human blood. conversion, converting it into vitality to replenish the lost vitality.

Of course Nozomi Arakawa would not agree, and even if he agreed, Qiu Xue himself would not agree.

All he knew was that Qiuxue was indeed relying on the blood of Qiuye and Qiuyue to slow down the loss of vitality.

By the way, Qiuyue became one of Qiuxue's sources of vitality not long ago.

The three of them have to complete the great act of replenishing vitality by sucking blood and exchanging body fluids every day.

But despite this, Qiu Xue will never accept that she becomes a vampire.

It would be better to kill her directly!

After a long silence, Nozomi Arakawa opened his mouth and said:

"I'm not here to tell you about Qiu Xue. Didn't you already tell me the solution?"

"That's right," Kishua said, "I told you, but are you sure you want to get the Holy Grail?"

"Of course." Nozomi Arakawa raised his eyebrows, not understanding why Kishua would say such nonsense.

"Okay, but before that, you have to know what the Holy Grail is and...how to get it."

Nozomi Arakawa listened in silence, but Kishua was satisfied with his longing eyes.

He couldn't wait to see the kid's expression of despair because of losing the fight.

He is such a person, good and evil are indeterminate, and he would help Arakawa Nobuo before, although he was helping him this time, he was helping him into a desperate situation, because he could see that if he went through more battles, Arakawa Nozomi would There is no doubt that the origin on the body will be fully awakened.

It can be resisted for a while, but not for a lifetime.

Kishua: "About the Holy Grail, I have already said it once. You can simply understand it as a universal wishing machine, but that is on the premise that it is not polluted."

"Not polluted?"

"Don't worry, this Holy Grail War will start soon. People from the church will supervise the whole process, and the tragedy like the fourth battle will not happen." Kishua seemed to have thought of something, and smiled.

"Next is the way to get the Holy Grail. Obtaining the Holy Grail requires a Holy Grail War. Simply put, the Holy Grail will end up in whose hands it depends on who will win the battle. After storing enough magic power, the Holy Grail will Select seven magicians and grant the mark of [Omen], and then the selected people need to summon servants through [Spiritual Seance Ritual Summoning of Heroic Spirits] as soon as possible. The Holy Grail War will begin when all of them are collected, and the war will not end until there is only one group left. As long as the minimum rule of "mysterious concealment" is still observed, there is no prohibited method in this war."

"Very good, that is to say, as long as it is mysterious and concealed, any method can be used, right?"

"Yes, that's it."

"I have a few questions to ask." Nozomi Arakawa said, "What do you mean by saying that the Holy Grail can choose a magician on its own?"

"You don't have to worry about this." Kishua said, "The selection of the Holy Grail has rules and priorities. People who have a strong desire to make the Holy Grail come true in their hearts or subconscious minds will have a very high priority. It’s irrelevant.”

Hearing this, Arakawa Wang breathed a sigh of relief.

It hurts a bit if it takes a veteran magician to be chosen by the Holy Grail.

"There is another question, and that is how to do the summoning ceremony of the heroic spirit?"

"Summoning a Servant is a ritual beyond the reach of human beings, but the assistance of the Great Holy Grail makes it possible, but it still requires complicated magic rituals. Also, the spiritual and physical compatibility between the heroic spirit and the summoner goes without saying, but in the end The important thing is the catalyst that has a deep bond with the Heroic Spirit."

"catalyst?"

"That is, items related to heroic spirits. If I have Miyamoto Musashi's hidden sword or clothing materials when he was alive, then the possibility of summoning her is very high."

"What if... there is no catalyst?" Nozomi Arakawa asked this question cautiously.

"Don't worry, the power of the Great Holy Grail will work, but there may be no heroic spirits to respond to your call."

"..."

"I probably know the situation, but what about the location?" Arakawa asked, "Where is the place where the Holy Grail War will be held?"

"It's a place you probably haven't heard of..." Kishua said slowly, "A peaceful city, Fuyuki City."
