Shape Moon, The Road to the Magician

"Damn it! He acted so recklessly and disrupted all my plans."

Compared with Xia Yuan's smooth and unimpeded journey, the witch lady on the other side was in a rather unhappy mood.

In Avalon.

Looking through the magic mirror in front of her, she saw Xia Yuan breaking the barrier he had arranged all the way. Morgan Le Fay just felt a little angry in her heart.

"Ah, ah, ah, don't be angry"

"After all, this new-born magician is not a follow-the-rules being. He is even more restless. Of course, he will not proceed according to the rules you set."

Looking at the angry Morgan Le Fay, Merlin couldn't help but feel happy. He stood up and poured her a cup of scented tea with a smile.

After all, as the person who has been in contact with Xia Yuan for the longest time, he naturally has a deep understanding of this.

The degree of restlessness of that little ancestor cannot be explained in a few words, but it is very interesting to say that he did not hate getting along with such a troublesome little guy, so he ended up in the Holy Grail War. Later, he continued to maintain close contact with Xia Yuan, so that they became friends.

Now that Xia Yuan has been recognized by the source and can control the magic of the third miracle, he is no longer the pawn who could only drift with the crowd during the Holy Grail War.

It's unrealistic for Morgan to want him to act according to his own consciousness.

"The third magic user is a special being who masters the miracle of soul materialization. With the power he masters and the ability to explain concepts, if he insists on climbing, he can even be compared with the main god in the heyday of the Age of Gods. It is indeed very difficult."Morgan mused.

"So are you ready to give up? Seeing this,

Merlin couldn't help but smile and continued to advise:"I would say that since Arturia has been reborn as a heroic spirit and put aside the tragedy of the past, we should not interfere with her life anymore."

"You have been preparing for her for so many years, don’t you just hope that she will start a new life after her resurrection?"

"It's better to be liberated from the tombkeeper's curse. There is no need to create so many trials for her, and finally have a big drama of sisters fighting each other for thousands of years. Such a development would be too cruel for that girl and would only make her sad"

"oh?

Merlin's words made Morgan slightly stunned. He raised his eyebrows and said playfully:"I really didn't expect that such words would come from such an inhumane person." What's wrong, Merlin? Didn't you like to watch this kind of show the most?"

"Didn’t you say you want to chase interesting stories in the world? Could it be that you don't find such stories interesting?"

"Ah? Have it? I forgot……"

Merlin smiled awkwardly and scratched his head, but still spoke slowly under Morgan's scrutiny.

"It's definitely interesting. To be honest, I'm looking forward to it, but I'd better forget it for now."

"But Yuan is my friend. I don’t want to see him angry and his feelings for Artoria.……"

"Alas, if I had to explain it, it would probably be a debt. Arturia's death is still the only thing that makes me feel special emotions in my life."

"That feeling called guilt lingered in my heart for a long time. This feeling was uncomfortable and even made me feel remorse and self-blame. So in the days that followed, I tried my best to make up for her.

Merlin sighed and said with some guilt:"Yuan's appearance helped me fulfill this wish.""

"During the Holy Grail War, he used his sword and words to awaken Artoria's confused heart and let her learn to let go. Now, using the third method, we have successfully brought Artoria back to the world as a heroic spirit. We hope that she can have a new life."

"You've done enough, and Artoria has looked away. So Morgan, it's time for you to let go of that obsession."

"Merlin……"

Morgan looked into Merlin's eyes and suddenly said

"What's wrong?"

"Your hypocritical look is really disgusting. It's obvious that the murderer who killed Artoria was you, and that damn old guy King Uther! It was you who put her on the throne!! It was you who made her bear that inevitable fate!!!"

"Now it's just compensation by chance. Do you think you have done enough? The harm you brought to Artoria is more than just that!!"

"I'm sorry...that's my responsibility and I have to bear it. If you want to blame me, I won't complain."Merlin made no excuses and lowered his head.

"If you really want to judge me, I won't fight back or run away. But please be gentle, okay? Actually, I'm still quite afraid of pain."

"Judge you? Then let you get the so-called relief and let this matter go completely? Merlin, your despicableness is still as disgusting as ever."

Yingying's jade fingers tapped the table lightly. In an instant, along with Morgan's angry mood, the surge of magic power tore a terrifying hole from where the fingertips fell, and the exquisite tea sets placed on the table also fell to the ground. , saying"Pah!""The crisp sound of

"Merlin, I don't want to argue with you as a murderer now, and I won't attack you at the same time. Because you are not worthy, that disgusting soul and body will only dirty my hands"

"Altria is my sister. Although there have been many accidents in the past that have made our relationship unhappy, we are still sisters by blood. I will never harm her and push her to a dead end like you did."

Morgan stood up and said without question:"The world has been closed, and it is difficult for us in Avalon to come and go as we please."

"But the things left in my village can help me leave for a short time. This is also a rare opportunity for us sisters to meet."

"So... I advise you not to do anything unnecessary secretly this time, Merlin. Otherwise, your end will not be as simple as being locked up in the tower at the end."

After the words fell, Morgan stopped pausing. He raised his dark staff and knocked on the ground. His figure turned into black mist and disappeared in the tower at the end, leaving only Merlin with his head bowed and a bitter smile.

"Really...it seems like I can't help you with anything, Artoria."

"Yuan, the rest is up to you, my friend……"

【Online anchor·Magical Girl·Meili: I was attacked by my best friend today. I’m so distressed. What should I do?】

———

……

……

"Is it Morgan Le Fay? Or something else? But the design of the enchantment here is really interesting."

The reckless act of directly destroying the Great Barrier with magic power has obviously broken the plan of the people behind the scenes.

For example, a certain witch Morgan Lefay sensed Artoria's return and returned overnight.

What Zbia said The unknown force that snatched control of [Logos React] came from the handwriting left by this witch.

She knew that Arturia would definitely come here, so she spent a lot of effort to arrange it in the gravekeeper's forbidden area. The big barrier, as well as many trials and tests, she wanted to have a touching sisterly reunion with her at the end, but Xia Yuan's rough behavior completely shattered her plan.

Act according to the rules set by the weak.

The so-called rules are only for those who do not follow the rules. Xia Yuan is obviously no longer the type of person who needs to follow the rules.

He has no intention of the trial arranged by the witch.

So the rough injection of magic power crushed the barrier. Not only the circulation corridor, but also many of the layout behind it were directly buried by the stone slabs that fell due to the shattering of the barrier. Weird, he was buried alive by Xia Yuan. It was a complete cheating behavior. He skipped to the end before he even started to break through the level. This made Morgan Le Fay feel a little bit annoyed.

You are the gift they prepared for Artoria. What's wrong with outsiders? She was looking forward to seeing her sister regain her confidence and fight bravely. This made Morgan very angry and decided that she must teach Xia Yuan a lesson!

"We'll see, you brat!"

……

……

"Ouch——！"

"Ouch——！！"

Because the underground barrier collapsed, many ghosts and monsters that were about to be buried alive made piercing screams and began to flee crazily in the area.

Just glancing at the group of screaming ghosts around him, as well as the monsters escaping from the deeper parts of the barrier, Xia Yuan did not tolerate them at all. The moon spirit marrow liquid in his sleeves turned into a silver sword, a pale blue one. His eyes flashed with strange light, and powerful magic burst out from his body, crushing all enemies in his way.

"Ghosts, skeleton soldiers, golems, flying dragons, and even black dogs. There are so many types of monsters here. Are you, the gravekeeper, running a zoo underground?"Xia Yuan joked

"Are you kidding...I don't know why these monsters are hiding here."

Belsak behind him couldn't help but swallowed his saliva when he saw this terrifying scene like a horde of beasts. He was not in the mood to answer Xia Yuan's joke.

The number of God-era monsters hidden in this forbidden area could probably attack the clock tower. If he entered alone, he would definitely die.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but become afraid.

If there were not two people following him this time, he would not be enough for these monsters.

"Gray, hold me tight."

Swish, swish...!!

The sound of several sharp blades piercing the air.

Arturia hugged Gray with one arm and waved the holy sword with the other hand, crushing several incoming skeleton soldiers in the blink of an eye.

"Okay...Okay!"

Gray buried his head in Artoria's chest.

With his flexible skills and the Master's endless supply of magic power, Artoria was able to fight freely.

He stimulated the strong power in his body.���The magic power, the fierce cyan fighting spirit entwined into the Wind King's hammer, harvesting enemies wantonly, Artoria's heroic appearance continued to bloom among the enemy group.

No enemy can stop her.

As she fought to clear the way, countless monster corpses fell at her feet. The blood and cries could not catch up with her figure. It was like a sharp sword tearing through everything in its way.

"Haha, you are still as powerful as ever, Al. This scene of fighting side by side reminds me of the time when we fought with Gawain and the others fifteen hundred years ago. It is really nostalgic!"

Compared with the uneasy Gray, Adelaide in the birdcage is not nervous at all. He knows that with Artoria's strength, these shrimp soldiers and crab generals will be useless no matter how many they come.

Although the one over there uses magic power to directly crush the enemy. The magician guy looks even more awesome.

"It's almost the end."

With the high-speed movement of several people, they finally saw white light spots in the constantly broken barrier, where the breath of magic was constantly leaking.

There is no doubt that that is the breakthrough of the barrier. As long as you pass there , they can leave this inherent barrier.

However, the progress of things will obviously not be that simple.

"buzz buzz——"

There was a harsh friction sound, like the sound of steel and stone coming into contact. Although the restlessness was not big, it was still extremely harsh. Even during the collapse of the tunnel, this sound was accurately captured by Xia Yuan.

I also noticed that……

"careful!!"

As she approached the exit, Artoria, who was following closely behind, suddenly stopped and immediately reminded Xia Yuan in the loudest voice that her precise intuition had captured something.

Something dangerous was approaching at a very fast speed. , and it's very close, it's very close, and the direction is.……

——Clang!!

As large sparks flew out, the silver sword condensed from the moon spirit liquid and the sword protruding from the shadows���They suddenly collided, and what pierced the darkness was the pair of eyes that shimmered with light blue light.

"You leave first."

The silver sword shattered, and the two intertwined figures quickly separated. At this moment, Xia Yuan threw Besanak behind him and looked seriously at the"person" who walked out of the shadows.

It was probably a human. , and he doesn’t understand what the essence of this thing is?

"You guys get out of here first, I'll stay here to help the Master."

Artoria followed Xia Yuan's instructions and led them to the end of the light door, put down Gray in her arms, and told the two of them to pass quickly and be careful, as she would be back later.

She must not put Gray in her arms. Xia Yuan was left alone in a place like this, leaving him to fight alone

"But……"

Biersak was a little hesitant, and Gray was also very worried, but she knew that even if she stayed, she wouldn't be able to help much, and would only cause trouble for her eldest brother and His Highness the Knight King, so she just said timidly

"Please be careful……"

"Well, I will, and now my sword will no longer be dull."

Artoria nodded.

"Hahaha, it’s a bit out of place right now, but it’s great to see your transformation, Al.

Yade laughed and said,"Do you need my help?" Your gun is in my body. As long as you take me there, there won't be any difficulty."

My gun...

Of course Artoria knows what Ade is referring to.

"No, no need, Brother Kai, you should stay by Gray's side to protect her, my sword is enough."

Altria shook her head and did not take back the Holy Spear. Then she did not hesitate any longer, drew out the Holy Sword and quickly ran towards Xia Yuan.

……

……

It's not observable, but it's real.

Just hidden in the shadows and difficult to lock.

Raising his hand to deflect several fierce attacks from different directions with his silver sword, Xia Yuan carefully considered the true face of his enemy.

Although it is difficult to hurt yourself if you let that thing continue to attack, it will be very troublesome if you continue to delay it.

Moreover, the barrier here is about to collapse, so a quick victory is the best option.

If you can't see it, try to force the guy hiding in the dark out.

Fortunately, this is a large barrier that is collapsing. There are absolutely no ordinary people here, and innocent people will not be harmed here. He can also relax a little.

Looking back, I saw that Artoria and Gray were no longer around, which was good.

"Well, it seems that they have almost left, and we are the only two left here."

"I don’t know what your intentions are, but I will let you tell them, Witch Ms. Morganle Fay."

He stared at the thing in the shadow and said calmly.

Then he spread his hands and the magic began to work.

"Ashes to ashes, earth to earth, embers in the name of fire."

A wisp of blue-black flames ignited from Xia Yuan's fingertips, and the gift entrusted in his soul was ignited again in his hands.

"The essence of fire, the soul of flame, plus the soul of revenge."

Then I saw Xia Yuan spread his hands, driving the almost endless magic power in his body to ignite the black flame that existed deep in his soul.

The four movements overlapped continuously.

Close, open, rotate, and pull.

With the final After completing a decisive gesture, he spread his left hand flat, and used two fingers of his right hand to draw the flame into a flaming long bow, and then drew it to the full length, ready to shoot!

"——Fire, burn brightly!"

Bearing - with the sound of the air being burned, the dark flame arrows quickly condensed between his left and right hands. The black firelight illuminated Xia Yuan's face and reflected in his eyes.

As he blew gently With just one breath, the flaming arrows shot out like thunder.

The terrifying momentum and the harsh sound dragged out a burning path in the darkness.

In the blink of an eye, they had already shot into the shadows, and then...

boom boom boom!

Boom boom!!

Boom boom - the continuous explosions and the buzzing air caused by the flames have completely shattered the collapsed passage, and the things hidden in the shadows have been destroyed.

There was no way to avoid this blow, and the blazing flame burst into his face, making a creaking and boiling sound, but even so.

——

"Was he hit by such an attack and still escaped unscathed? It's really surprising."

Looking at the figure walking out of the shadows unharmed, Xia Yuan couldn't help but feel a little moved.

Because he saw that the dark flames he released did not disappear or go out, but attached to her body and continued to burn, but The doll's expression didn't change at all, but she regarded it as nothing.

Then she just patted the flames on her body and shook off the attached flames like dust.

Seeing this, he also got it. The figure in front of her was not a living person. The black soul fire was the nemesis of all life. She faced the flames but was unscathed. This only meant that the figure in front of her had no soul and was just a puppet controlled by her consciousness.

The released flames don't have much effect? Is it really the wrong method?

"What an amazing flame. While having extremely high temperatures, it actually has the ability to ignite the soul. Coupled with your terrifying and terrifying magic power, no wonder you and Merlin can team up to break through the Seat of Heroes and summon my stupid sister.."

The voice was a little cold, but also a little familiar. In addition, her words were barely concealed except for the veil, so people could easily guess her identity.

"Morgan Le Fay? You do still exist in this era, but you actually came out of Avalon, which surprised me"

"However, it is a great honor to meet such a powerful witch like you in such a place and in such a way."

"Accident? Actually, that's not the case... aren't you looking for me?"She smiled

"What is your purpose as an intruder who reaches the root and disrupts the course of the world? What exactly do you want?

Morgan Le Fay looked at Xia Yuan and said indifferently:"But what makes me more curious is, where does your soul come from?" Who are you?"

This is not the first time that someone has discovered his identity, so Xia Yuan did not feel any surprise.

The inhibition can be detected, the gem man can see it, and the root ritual can also be seen. Obviously, as the witch of the island, Morgan Le Fei had no reason not to know, after all, the aura of an outsider was out of place.

"who I am? This question is really philosophical.……"

Xia Yuan shook his head, and then replied calmly:"I am myself, Artoria's master and partner, and the third magician Xia Yuan, that's all."

"That's it? Are the descendants who have been marked as hostile by the suppression force still unaware of their own position? This is really ridiculous"

"ha? Are those two useless guys still so hostile to me?"

Morgan's words made Xia Yuan a little puzzled.

Doesn't the root style mean that he has become the third magician and is recognized by the root, so the planet's restraining force will no longer cause trouble for him?

Is it because he and Merlin have changed from the restraining force ? He was blacklisted again for robbing someone?

"But you also made me determined. A scary guy like you who doesn't even know his position will never be allowed to stay by her side."

Morgan gritted his teeth slightly under the veil, and some dissatisfaction was vented from his words.

"Enough with the nonsense, outsiders, get out of this world!"

Morgan said in a deep voice, opening his right hand slightly, and the crazy storm immediately filled the entire tunnel. The black aurora quickly gathered in the witch's hands, and soon transformed into a shape, and was held by the queen of magic. The strong wind dispersed instantly, and the light subsided at this moment, and the appearance under the black light also appeared in Xia Yuan's eyes.

It was a dark gun, wrapped in black light and energy from top to bottom. Black barbs like fangs also extended from the body of the gun. Although its appearance was very different from when it was in Artoria's hands, the transcendent power of the star-made weapon convinced him that this gun The strange-looking black spear was the legendary Star Anchor - Rhongomyniad.

Xia Yuan couldn't help but feel strange when he saw it.

After all, he knew the real Star Anchor - Rhongomyniad. , is undoubtedly sealed in Yade's body, and is still in Gray's hand at this moment, so where does the holy spear in Morgan's hand come from?

——【Logos react】

Recalling the location here, Xia Yuan already has the answer.

Morgan intervened here in advance and entered new data into the Logos react stored in the underground of the Gravekeeper. It was set to [King Arthur] to trigger a reaction when entering here.

That's why this time, when Artoria entered, the inherent barrier that had been placed here was activated, causing such a change.

It really caused a lot of trouble for people, Cibia.

Xia Yuan probably understood the situation.

The Logos react that Zibia left here was actually touched by Morgan���hands and feet, and used their power to create such a skeleton queen.

The essence of the Skeleton King is that - with the help of [Logos React], it is a kind of reenactment. As long as it meets sufficient conditions and specifications, in this specific space, it can even simulate a character and ability that is infinitely close to the original figure.

Therefore, they are not fakes. The Morgan and Star Anchor in front of them can be said to be infinitely closer to the real reappearance of the Gods, fully capable of the top level of heroic spirits.

Xia Yuan is even sure that the consciousness in the Skeleton King's body is not the evolved personality simulated by [Logos React] like Yade at all, but the real Morgan Le Fay, who has synchronized her consciousness with the Skeleton Queen. and grafting, thus completing the reappearance of dependence.

If that's the case, it would be really interesting.

"Sure enough, not only Artoria, but you, as the witch of the island, can also control this gun that maintains the surface of the world."

Looking at Morgan Le Fay wielding the black holy spear Lungominiad that symbolized the storm, Xia Yuan had a smile on his face.

"But, arrogant witch, this is no longer the mysterious era of your great Britain."

Xia Yuan opened his arms and pulled off the restraint pendant around his neck. His eyes and words were full of confidence. Dazzling magic circuits covered his whole body, and powerful and terrifying magic power rippled around him.

"Next...Welcome to the era of man, and it is also my era! Ms. Morgan Le Fay."

He responded with an momentum that was no weaker than the Queen of Skeletons.

"Want to challenge the authority of the Gods? Trying to defeat the Star Anchor is extremely stupid as a magician. Is the third magic your greatest reliance?"

"Well, you can come and give it a try."

Xia Yuan replied with a smile, but there was still no fear on his face.

"Arrogant little devil, if you insist on seeking death, then I will obey you and grant you death."

Morgan Le Fay raised the Holy Spear and stared at Xia Yuan with emotionless eyes. The magic power in the Star Anchor was rising steadily, and the black storm that was set off seemed to tear everything in front of him.

"Do your best to prove your truth to me, magician, and let me see if you are qualified to be the one who walks with her and shares this fate."

Facing the oncoming black storm, Xia Yuan did not dodge, but continued to increase his magic power, standing like an unshakable stone in the center of the black storm.

"Haha, as you wish"

"But there is something that needs to be corrected first, Miss Witch, you are the challenger!"

His face is still full of confidence.
