Crown Dead

Or rather—do not want to understand.

I have indeed witnessed "the aftermath of the future" and the path he took.It is a path of stillness full of destruction and death.Like Musashi, there should be many people whose original world was completely destroyed.

Although he always thought he was saving the world with hypocritical excuses, but in fact, his hands were gradually stained with other people's blood?The 174 soldiers who were only protecting the "land", the samurai and civilians who were not rescued by the spirit of Shimoso, the heroic swordsmen who were not freed and reborn, and the residents of Fuyuki City who were involved in the Holy Grail War we...

The more people I try to help, the more I lose.

Senyu, who claims to never become a guy like Emiya Kiritsugu, gradually understands the feelings of that guy who once tried to be a partner of justice after witnessing all kinds of disasters that he can't completely resolve.

When the value of human nature continues to decline, all the beliefs and motivations that support oneself will eventually be turned into bubbles, leaving only the pathological and extreme "original intention".

The Lion King is a living example, and Cronus is the end that he cannot avoid.

Perhaps, as the Lion King said, this empty and meaningless ending is actually the best solution to deal with a guy like himself who will eventually collapse—oh!

His body was suddenly electrified by something, which not only interrupted Xian Yu's increasingly extreme thinking, but also made him suddenly discover something that he hadn't noticed until now.

—no sound.

It is true that there is no source of any sound in the blank land, and the crackling sound of the electric current just now is particularly abrupt, but for the "gatekeeper of the underworld", this is the biggest doubt.

After all, there are a full 300 souls imprisoned in the tower at the end beside him. No matter how small their voices are, they can definitely be heard.

It is impossible for those souls to remain silent. According to Xian Yu's experience in the underworld as a sub-district office & census committee employee for Ailei for several months, the souls of the dead seldom remain silent unless they dissipate completely.What's more, 300 lives are silent together, which will never happen.

The only inference is only one

Like a person who was frozen in the snow and finally saw the flames, Xian Yu desperately ran to the tower of the end again, to get close to those 'souls'.

Just as I thought, these so-called flawless spirits are not the souls of the dead at all, they are fakes made of magic power.

While observing this fact, the Tower of the End suddenly shattered completely, leaving nothing but endless nothingness around it again.

"You noticed something strange, I can't understand it."

The Lion King appeared in front of Xian Yu, but this time she was no longer cold and ignorant.

"There is only a specialization in the art industry. After all, even the most sophisticated illusions cannot imitate the human mind."

This is an illusion, Xian Yu has already understood this point, but the final scenery constructed by the Lion King is much more real than Merlin's dream "You have the immortality that transcends [Godhead], I know this Traits can make you tricky and difficult to deal with, so it's constructed in a way that traps you in hallucinations and waits for your consciousness to disappear completely. It seems to have failed."

The Lion King no longer concealed it, and directly stated his intentions.

"Not only that - this is not just a simple hallucination, but also a landscape that you have been watching over and over again in your heart. You have been preparing for this moment since the moment you became the Lion King."

Xianyu looked at the empty scenery around and said.

"This is my destiny and the only goal I have left. The gods cannot show their love in a way that humans can accept, but I don't need awe or belief. All I need is to continue human beings, regardless of the world. It will become whatever it is, in any way."

The Lion King's pupils of nothingness are still only filled with storms, and the "inherent barrier" where the two of them are at this time is the "Tower at the End of the World" woven by her thoughts and consciousness.

"But deep down inside of you—maybe you don't even know it. You're still afraid, resisting this ending from becoming a reality."

"—what idle guesses are you talking about, Chosen One."

The Lion King's expression wavered slightly.

"If you just want me to stop thinking in nothingness, then there is no need for you to build this tower-shaped tomb together from the very beginning. You are also hesitating and fearing the fate of becoming the tombkeeper of the Tower of the End, Because after all, that’s not the end you wanted as “King Arthur” in the first place.”

"——I am the Lion King, the King of the Holy Spear of the Tower of the End, who will continue mankind forever."

"Then why did you tell me those things? You want me to know that I will become an unkillable monster in the future—"

"Or do you want me to stop you who can no longer turn back, and can only be wrong in the depths of your heart?"

"shut up--!"

The Lion King blasted a wave of magic power at Xianyu, who closed his eyes and crossed his hands to prepare for defense, but his body was not repelled.

Opening his eyes, Xian Yu saw a barrier in front of him, it was a barrier composed of familiar runes, dark red electric current and golden light, projected from the rune stone in front of his neck.

It turned out to be the case.

Xian Yu knew the source of the breeze he felt before, the miraculous gushing power, and the series of encounters he was awakened by the electric current.

"Lion King, you are right. I may eventually slowly walk the opposite path to humans, and maybe become as cruel and ruthless as Kronos."

"But definitely not today, and definitely not tomorrow."

Holding the rune stone in his hand, the pure white scenery around him gradually shattered, and his body felt weightless.

"Because there are a group of the most important beings by my side. Even if I get lost at the end of the world, they will bring me back to the original track."

"--Envy."

The Lion King looked at Xian Yu with a somewhat incomprehensible expression, but also a little envy.

"There are also by your side."

The conversation ended here, and Xian Yu completely fell into darkness.

"Xianyu——!! Ah, I finally woke up, if I hadn't had to desperately resist Daddy's shot now, I would definitely bite your nose."

"Don't bite...huh?"

A sense of trance surged out again, Xian Yu blinked his eyes to confirm the surrounding situation.

At this time, I was on the protruding platform of the palace, not far away was the Holy Spear emitting light, and in front of me were Tia Mozi and Betty, and the one who confronted them was the God of Storms.
