The rusted chains of prison moons
Are shattered by the sun
I walk a road, horizons change
The tournament's begun
The purple piper plays his tune
The choir softly sing
Three lullabies in an ancient tongue
For the court of the crimson king

The keeper of the city keys
Put shutters on the dreams
I wait outside the pilgrim's door
With insufficient schemes
The black queen chants
The funeral march
The cracked brass bells will ring
To summon back the fire witch
To the court of the crimson king

The gardener plants an evergreen
Whilst trampling on a flower
I chase the wind of a prism ship
To taste the sweet and sour
The pattern juggler lifts his hand
The orchestra begin
As slowly turns the grinding wheel
In the court of the crimson king

On soft gray mornings widows cry
The wise men share a joke
I run to grasp divining signs
To satisfy the hoax
The yellow jester does not play
But gentle pulls the strings
And smiles as the puppets dance
In the court of the crimson king

In the Court of the Crimson King, King Crimson


Last Day


The Incarnation of the Greater Grail, a woman strangely resembling Justeaze von Einzbern, turned to the Masters and the Servants.

"All right, as you asked, I'm going to join you and offer you my knowledge of Heaven's Feel ritual as well as Kaleidoscope.

The young woman raised her hands above Rin's Azoth dagger.

The Magi present began to whisper incantations again. All turned to Archer, who had the most delicate task.

The Servant concentrated and after a few seconds shouted aloud the first three lines of his Aria:

I am the bone of my sword

Steel is my body and fire is my blood

I have created over a thousand blades

Rin's dagger began to radiate and then became grotesquely distorted oscillating between several forms.

Emiya's forehead was covered with sweat. He clenched his teeth, concentrating more deeply so as not to lose control of the Alteration process. His hand was shaking...

Then the Dagger lengthened, widened as the blade became translucent. When EMIYA lowered his hand, Rin's weapon stabilized in the form of a short sword with a coarse aspect. The handle was simple and the steel guard was conical, covered with engraved petals that made it look like a lotus flower. But the most remarkable was the blade. It was made of a single crystal, a kind of dull quartz, cut rather awkwardly.

Paracelsus held his own Azoth sword in his hand. The Philosopher's Stone in his pommel began to radiate.

The knowledge and power of Fuyuki's Greater Grail made miracles possible.

Rin Tohsaka and Luviaglelita Edelfeld offered their expertise in the Jewel Magecraft.

Emiya's Tracing Magecraft could create near-perfect duplicates of weapons the Servant had seen. But these doubles were only temporary because made of prana.

As for Paracelsus, he had the power to finalize the process of creation, to make it permanent transforming the prana of the weapon created by Archer into True Ether (false) a form of magical energy that the gods had used in the creation of the world.

Tohsaka was the first to speak.

"Is... is it over?"

Archer smiled with difficulty. His face was grey.

"I think that I..."

The Greater Grail nodded. Her face was inexpressive, but she was smiling.

"You have succeeded. This weapon is a perfect duplicate of the Sword of Zelretch. This Mystic Code should solve your problems. Rin Tohsaka, only you can wield this sword, be careful."

The woman who looked like Justeaze von Einzbern looked at the people present one by one.

"Remember, the Servants must not approach the Grail, otherwise Angra Mainyu will absorb them and use them as weapons against this world. Only the Masters will enter the cave below Mount Enzou. Luviagelita Edelfelt, Pyrrha Nikos, Bazett Fraga McRemitz you must protect Rin Tohsaka at all costs."

The Greater Grail seemed to hesitate and then nodded.

"I took advantage of being in the body of Illyasviel von Einzbern to repair what Jubstacheit von Einzbern did to her. Without my intervention, she would not have survived a year." The Greater Grail smiled at them." Good luck to you all, and our best wishes to you."

The silhouette of Justeaze von Einzbern suddenly became bright and then shrunk... an instant later Illya fell to her knees, becoming herself again. Pyrrha ran to her and hugged her.

But before the Invincible Girl could speak, the Einzbern Castle began to shake violently, as dust fell from the ceiling.

EMIYA started yelling to be heard in the middle of the din.

"An earthquake or something?"

It was Merlin who answered, her voice was for once audible to all, sounding strangely in the cave.

"No, we don't have that chance... It's Angra Mainyu! He's on the offensive, get out fast!"

As they were running up the stairs from the cellar where the ritual had taken place, Illya frowned.

"Something entered the Bounded Field surrounding the castle but it's not human..."

"Is it black with some kind of red-streaked bone mask?" Pyrrha asked.

"Yes."

"They are Grimms!"


Crossing the hall, they felt the castle tremble again.

Bazett opened the door and almost died, only her reflexes saved her. The young woman jumped back, dodged an attack, and fell back four steps further, her fists raised.

The creature that had just entered the castle looked like a saber-toothed cat with black skin from which came out tips and bone plates. The skull was bare of flesh, made of white bones with some red strokes like war paintings. His claws were also made of white bones.

The creature - a Sabyr- prepared to leap, but was cut in half by Excalibur... the body immediately began to disappear.

King Arthur rushed outside, his Sacred Sword in hand.

In a dazzling display of fencing, he defeated more than a dozen Grimms who were waiting near the gates: Creeps, Beowolves, Ursai and Sabyrs.

Next up close, Paracelsus used his Magecraft to cast flames or ice stalactites. Near him, Pyrrha guided his attacks.

"Sabyrs resist the cold, use fire attacks against them!"


Third Servant to leave the Einzbern Castle, EMIYA jumped to the roof and materialized his great bow.

He drew his arrows at such a speed that an ordinary human would have seen only a blurred movement. These were not weapons from Unlimited Bladework Altered by his Magecraft, but arrows made of translucent prana. However, they were self-replicating arrows... Each arrow split into several identical projectiles as it fell to the ground.

Archer alone unleashed a veritable barrage of artillery as if more than a thousand archers were firing simultaneously.

The result was self-explanatory.

In the space of an instant, the hundreds of Grimms who attacked the castle were nothing more than corpses disintegrating.

Archer looked up and winced.

A creature out of legends was slowly spinning over the Einzbern forest.

[Rin, a kind of dragon attacks us! ]

Thank to his Clairvoyance skill, Archer saw some sort of black, incredibly viscous tar-like substance fall out of the skin all over its body. When droplets of this substance impact the ground, lesser forms of Grimm rise from the residue.

[And it is this monster that summons the other Grimms.]


The Amazon Girl nodded as she heard Rin's report.

"It's a Wyvern. I saw one once... and it's not a good memory. This Grimm can create a real army of Lesser Grimms. It is vulnerable to holy weapons or sacred since like all Grimms it is a pure concentration of negativity. But you have to strike hard to destroy such a monster."

Pyrrha paused for a moment to cut off the head of a Beowolf, and then blocked the attack of a Sabyr with her shield, protecting Illya. The latter had invoked two familiars resembling birds but as if woven from silver threads and moonbeams. They fired energy projectiles, killing a Grimm with every attack. But despite this carnage, the monsters eliminated were immediately replaced by others coming out of the woods.

"Understood," replied Rin." Until we destroy the Wyvern, our opponents will be continually replaced."

She turned around and raised the Jeweled Sword of Zelretch. The blade no longer seemed made of quartz. Now it shone with all the colors of the rainbow, as if rubies, emeralds, sapphires, and other precious stones had been fused.

"Es erzählt Mein Schatten, nimmt sie!"

In Rin's hand, the Zelretch's Sword began to radiate a white glow that spread among the monsters... in a blink of an eye, all crumbled into dust. But already, other monsters were gathering in the forest, advancing toward them.

It was an endless and hopeless battle. No matter how many opponents they killed, others would replace them.

[Archer?]


EMIYA nodded slowly, turning to the Wyvern.

[All right, Rin, I got this.]

Durandal: the Peerless Sword appeared before the Servant, hovering over the roof. It was said that the blade was to be unbreakable and invincible, and was often compared to Excalibur as an invincible and indestructible holy sword.

The blade vibrated a moment before it flew away, catapulted to its target a bit as Gilgamesh would. With the incredible precision so characteristic of an Archer-class Servant, the holy sword crossed the head of the Wyvern... the corpse did not even have time to touch the ground as it turned into ashes.

Archer had this smirk that always made Rin want to bite him.

[Successful mission, Master, nothing more complicated to ask me?]

But Tohsaka did not have time to respond, the ground was once again shaken.

Instinctively, the Servant turned west in the direction of Mount Enzou...

[Uh... Rin, forget what I said. We're not out of the woods yet.]

Hundreds of flying creatures were heading toward them. The larger ones looked like huge crows (about ten Nevermores), while the others were some kind of weird Harpies (Razorwinds), huge wasps (Lancers) Manticores, or Griffins.

Angra Mainyu really seemed to want to stop them no matter what.


Fuyuki had become a hell.

Fires had started in several places, caused by the fireballs spit out by the Manticores.

All kinds of Lesser Grimms roamed the streets, slaughtering humans who hid or fled. It was a scene of carnage and devastation.

Above Ryuudou Temple, a kind of tear floated in the air. There flowed a black and oily liquid. The pond behind the temple had been transformed into a kind of lake of an oil-like substance.

This oily liquid was constantly bubbling. Huge bubbles formed... and when they burst a new Grimm came out of this lake made of materialized negativity.


Bazett dodged the attack of a Sphinx.

Her fists lit up briefly with a silver glow and the young woman banged like a boxer lining up the uppercuts and direct attacks, breaking the winged lion's bone mask.

The Grimm vacillated and collapsed before it began to disintegrate.

But already, another monster took the place of the one she had just defeated.

She jumped to the side, dodging the attack of a Boarbatusk, and kicked him hard enough to fit into a wall.

Bazett smiled for a brief moment before hearing a trumpet shake the street.

"An elephant?"

But when she turned around, she discovered that a black Grimm covered in bone protuberance was heading towards her. The monster looked like a mammoth! And obviously, it was going to charge to crush her.

A smile touched the lips of the Clock Tower Enforcer.

Bazett concentrated, raising her fist above his shoulder.

In front of her phalanges a weapon appeared gradually, first a small sphere filled with stars, then a dagger blade that extended the sphere, and finally a ring inscribed with magical signs slowly rotating around the blade.

Calmly, she let the enemy attack... and tramples her mortally!

However, as the Goliath trumpeted to claim victory, time seemed to suspend its course... before the scene is played backwards, like a backward movie!

Again Bazett was facing the charging mammoth, but this time the end was quite different.

"Fragarach!"

The Enforcer shouted the name of her Noble Phantasm, the conditions of its activation being fulfilled (the user's opponent used it most powerful attack to kill her). The Answerer: That Which Comes Later Cuts was now able to retaliate. A ray of light almost as thin as a hair came out of Mannanaán mac Lir's dagger, transpiercing the monster's heart.

The Goliath collapsed forward, stopping only a few steps from Bazett, safe and sound.

However, this victory was not enough.

Bazett Fraga McRemitz shuddered when she discovered that the street was crawling with Grimms... thousands of monsters... some were walking, others were crawling... some were flying... she even saw a gigantic armored centipede coming out of the ground for a moment before digging a new hole. And all these hideous monsters were heading straight for her. Bazett enjoyed being popular... but that was excessive.

"Don't worry, Master, I'll take care of it."

Caster advanced, passing in front of the young woman while brandishing his short sword.

"Let me show you... my light."

"The True Ether guides me... my obsessions, the form of my thoughts―"

Several light particles - each of a different color- had appeared around Paracelsus von Hohenheim. They assembled at the tip of his sword and began to spin faster and faster, creating a ring of all the colors of the rainbow.

Caster shouted the name of his Noble Phantasm:

"Azoth!"

And a rainbow hurricane was released sweeping the ranks of the Grimms. Several hundred were destroyed.


Like a ballerina dancing on the stage, Archer was twirling, swirling... running on the suspension cables of the hanging bridge that crossed the Mion River. In each hand, he held one of the Married Blades, and he passed into the ranks of the winged Grimms, dodging, blocking, and striking like lightning. Then he jumped... a jump of more than ten meters... and fell next to a Manticore. The monster spewed a fireball that the Servant dodged with a side jump, before slicing in half its tail ended with a snake head.

As the Grimm left the ground with a battling of wings, EMIYA threw Kanshou. With incredible precision, the Chinese sword cut the monster's head before returning to him, like a boomerang.

Around him, more than twenty Grimms were evaporating into black particles.

Yet the fight was not over...

EMIYA jumped backward, then to the side... dodging a dozen huge black feathers that had just crashed into the bridge superstructures.

The Servant smirked.

"Tsssk!"

On the deck Bridge, Rin stopped for a moment to raise the Jeweled Sword.

Es befiehlt. Mein Atem schließt

In an explosion of light, the Grimms present disintegrated into particles of darkness that evaporated instantly. Even the nearest Nevermores did not survive.

Nevertheless, packs of Grimms were already gathering on the east bank, converging on the bridge.

But they had just crossed the first few meters of the deck bridge when a magic circle drawn on the asphalt of the road lit up. A wall of purple energy formed, blocking the bridge.

Too stupid, the Grimms did not stop, heading straight for the obstacle and...

The first monster disintegrated, as did those who followed him. This did not prevent the other Grimms from continuing their attack. For the same result...

Next to Rin, Luvia smiled, proud of her work.

"A Bounded Field destroying creatures born of negativity... That way, all the Grimms who can't fly will be blocked by the river. Not bad for an improvised Formalcraft Ritual."


Arthur dodged a claw stroke by retreating, but the Death Stalker was a scorpion the size of a pickup truck. He had two pliers and a venomous sting.

Saber leaped aside, avoiding being cut in half, and then blocked the third attack with his invisible sword. He leaped forward, bypassed the enemy, then cut the monster's sting.

If the King of Knights had been fought against only one enemy, everything would have been over by now, except...

A Nucklavee, a humanoid Grimm (an Imp) fused with a horse-like Grimm, jumped to attack. The long arms of the Imp seized King Arthur, immobilizing him.

Hundreds of Lesser Grimms converged, eager to finish off their enemy.

"Hey! Don't touch Mister Charming Prince."

Proudly standing, with her finger pointed forward and one hand on her hip, Illya took the pose in the heat of battle... The Einzbern Master just forgot that she looked like a 13-year-old and so she was pretty ridiculous.

Nevertheless, the power of her Magecraft was impressive. The two magnificent birds that floated near the young Magus were her familiars. The Storch Ritter: Knight of Stork fired magic bullets called Zähre. Only one of those magic bullets could instantly kill a Lesser Grimm.

None of the Ursai and other Beowolves who were rushing to attack managed to approach Arthur.

"Hey... don't touch... Mister Charming Prince" repeats Illyasviel "He is reserved for my darling big sister."

Getting back her shield that she had just thrown in the face of a Creep, Pyrrha blushed violently. Beheading an Ursa, she turned around to speak at her little sister.

"Illya, I already told to you that you were wrong, I don't have that kind of relationship with Saber!"

Fortunately for them, Arthur was not listening to their argument. He was completely focused on his fight.

Through struggling, he had managed to free himself. With a quick stroke of the sword, the knight cut off one of the arms of the Nucklavee and retreated in haste to avoid a claw stroke from the Death Stalker which was back on the attack.

In spite of the Zähre that continued to decimate the Lessers Grimms, more and more of them appeared, converging from all the nearby alleys.

Arthur Pendragon focused.

A bluish light formed a bright aura around him. Seeing him motionless, the Grimms threw themselves on him...

The next moment, lightning flashes passed from one Grimm to another in formidable electric shocks!

In the air stinking of ozone, dozens of Grimms disintegrated, including the Death Stalker and the Nucklavee.

Supported by Illya's Storch Ritter, the Spartan Girl and the King massacred the surviving Grimms and resumed their advance.

"We are almost at Mount Enzou. The staircase for the Ryuudou Temple starts at the top of this street" says Pyrrha Nikos. "Let's hurry."


Illya, Pyrrha, and Arthur arrived at the Torii at the bottom of the stairs to discover that Bazett and Paracelsus had preceded them.

Caster used his Magecraft to attack the Grimms' horde, which formed a true river cascading from the top of the mountain, breaking over Fuyuki. But enough Grimms survived his attacks for the Clock Tower Enforcer to be in trouble.

Pyrrha and Arthur joined her, giving great sword thrusts in the mass of the monsters and pushing them back, while Illya took place next to Paracelsus.

It was at this point that Archer landed near them. He was carrying Rin under one arm and Luvia under the other... he dropped the two young women as if they were just two bags of dirty clothes to Trace his favorite swords.

Irritated, Rin got back on her feet, threatening him with her fist.

"You don't treat a lady like that!"

EMIYA pretended to look around him.

"A lady? Where?"

"I MEAN ME!"

"Oh... you're way too young and way too rude to be called that!"

Rin seemed to turn into a statue, with her mouth left open. But Luviagelita burst out laughing, masking her mouth with her hand.

"Finally your servant is very sympatric. He at least can recognize a real lady"

Rin turned to her 'sworn enemy' to give her a cold look.

But Archer spoke again, this time turning to the Edelfelt Master.

"Oh? It's true... and it's so lady-like to laugh like a hyena seeing other people's troubles."

The two Masters - suddenly reconciled- turned to Archer and...

"Hey! Maybe you could help us with the Grimms, wouldn't that be a bad idea, don't you think?"

It was Illya who had just spoken, quite annoyed.

"She's right and more mature than you two," said Merlin.


"We will never reach the entrance of the caves if we have to fight this army of Grimms," complained Pyrrha.

Arthur Pendragon watched the Lessers Grimms swarming on the stair descending to them by hundreds, probably even thousands...

"I'll take care of it."

He raised his invisible sword with two hands, concentrating. The wind began to swirl around him, becoming stronger and faster...

Saber suddenly opened his eyes and took two steps forward.

"Strike Air!"

His blade came down, releasing a horizontal twister that went up the stairs, ripping out of the ground trees and paving stones... and smashing the Creatures of Grimm.

"The way is open."


Halfway, Servants and Master parted ways.

Arthur, EMIYA, and Paracelsus continued towards the temple, while Pyrrha, Rin, Luvia, Bazett, and Illya took through the woods towards the caves where the Greater Grail... and Dark Sakura were located.


The group of Servants.

They met some Grimms in the last part of the staircase, too few to stop them.

Crossing Ryuudou Temple - ravaged- they discovered the pond behind the main building.

The once peaceful and meditative place had become a garden of hell...

From a tear floating high in the sky flowed a black and disgusting mud, materializing all the curses of humanity.

This abomination had replaced the water of the lake.

"Above all, do not touch this black mud, you would be corrupt," warned Caster.

"All right, let's get this over with."

It was Saber who just spoke.

In his hand, the wind sheath of his Sacred Sword began to fluctuate. Excalibur first appeared as a blue light form and then revealed itself in all its glory, burning with a dazzling golden glow.

At that time, Angra Mainyu created the most powerful Grimm he could make from black mud. The monster that emerged was absolutely gigantic... a Leviathan, a bipedal aquatic Grimm with a vaguely cetacean head. Like all Grimms, its body was black with white bone plates decorated with red 'war paintings'.

Arthur did not panic, continuing to hoard mana to launch a powerful attack. It was not until the monster reached out to seize him that he attacked:

"Excalibur!"

The Sacred Sword released a flood of golden light.

The Leviathan staggered, recoiled, raising one hand to protect his face, then crumbled in ashes, scattering into ashes carried away by the burning breath. The black mud lake instantly dried up. But the chain reaction did not stop there. The golden flames assaulted the stream of black mud, evaporating this concentrate of curses up to the opening leading inside the Greater Grail.

For three or four seconds nothing more seemed to happen, and then...

A cross of flame formed in the sky, in a formidable bang the opening collapsed in.

The instant after a shower of golden particles slowly fell to the ground in a magical spectacle of incredible beauty.

Arthur smiled as one of the bright flakes fell into the palm of his hand.

"We have done everything we can. Now the fate of the world is in the hands of our Masters."


The group of the masters.

"Es erzählt Mein Schatten, nimmt sie!"

The horrific insects Grimms, Blind Worm and Centinel, disintegrated in the explosion of energy released by Zelretch's Sword.

Having swept away all opposition, the surviving Masters entered the main cave. There were several magical circles drawn on the floor and strange inscriptions on the walls... red signs of tortured, corrupt appearance.

But the most horrible thing was this cluster of unhealthy rose flesh pulsating on a natural platform. Dark Sakura stood beside this... womb where Angra Mainyu's fetus was growing.

Rin, Illya, Luvia, Pyrrha, and Bazzet would run to their opponent but...

The ground rose before them.

A Creature of Grimm was defending the main cavern.

The monster was able to possess and manipulate inert matter. Ripping rocks from the ground and walls, it took the shape of a humanoid colossus.

While Bazett was already facing the creature, Pyrrha jumped aside to avoid a huge stone fist.

"It's a Geist! Hit his mask! It's the only vulnerable spot."

By hand, the Invincible Girl pointed to the mask that formed a tiny face on the monster's stone head.

"Understood," replied Illya.

The Einzbern Master stopped bombing the stone golem with Zähre to transform her familiars into their Degen form. The two swords pierced the mask. Immediately, the blocks of stones fell into heaps on the ground. The Grimm was dead.

Dark Sakura had looked at the fight as lost in a dream... but when the girls approached she had a dreadful smile.

"So you all ganged up against me, even yo,u sempai?"

Pyrrha shook her head.

"We came to save you, and to save the world."

Dark Sakura began to laugh hysterically.

"Liar... liar... you all lie... it's all a lie... nobody cares about me... nobody ever came to save me."

The Queen of the Grimm prepared herself to attack but...

The mountain was suddenly shaken by an explosion.

Merlin's voice was heard.

"Arthur and the others have destroyed the opening leading to the inside of the Greater Grail. Angra Mainyu must be weakened. It is worth you taking advantage of it."

Indeed, Dark Sakura wanted to use her teleportation ability, slip from one shadow opening to another to attack them in the back... but no opening appeared.

Dropping the Jeweled Sword on the ground, Rin advanced toward Sakura while raising her hands.

"Of course, I care about you... you're my sister!"

"Liar! For years I prayed that you would come and deliver me... but you never came."

"And how did you expect me to know what you were going through? You never told me."

Rin's reply surprised Dark Sakura, and she was unable to say a word.

Slowly, Rin continued to walk toward her sister.

"If you want to cry, cry. If you want help, ask. If you suffer, say so! If you keep everything in you, if you bury your suffering deep inside you it will destroy you from within. If you don't call, no one came to help you... you will be alone."

Rin was only three steps away from her sister. Dark Sakura seemed completely indecisive, unable to speak. Her face changed quickly. She felt anger, then grief, then hatred... but against whom?

"How can I know what was imposed on you? You never told me anything. All you had to do was ask me to help you, or ask Pyrrha. We love you. We would have saved you from Zouken, just like we came here to save you."

"Lie! Lie! Lie!"

One of the tentacles forming the dress of Dark Sakura pierced Rin's shoulder.

The young woman screamed in pain and threw herself forward to... hug her sister. Rin was crying.

"It's over, little sister, it's over... we're here... no one will hurt you anymore. I promise."

With her eyes bulging, Sakura was unable to speak. Suddenly, a light seemed to envelop her becoming stronger, dazzling, and... The tentacle robe disintegrated in sparks of darkness before evaporating.

If her sister had not held her in her arms, Sakura would have fallen to the ground. Although unconscious, the naked teenager had regained her usual hair color. Il ne restait aucun signe de sa transformation en Dark Sakura.

Rin smiled.

"Take Sakura with you and get out of here as soon as possible. I'll take Angra Mainyu!"

Pyrrha lifted the teenager and looked at Rin for a moment as she took the Zelretch's Sword on the ground.

"Don't take rash risks."

"I'm not so stupid."

While the other girls were running towards the exit of the caves, Rin concentrated. The Jeweled Sword began to radiate.

With a determined gesture, she thrust the Mystic Code into the infamous cluster of pulsating flesh on the verge of giving birth to the Supreme God of Evil.

"Welt, Ende!"


A violent explosion occurred in the main cave. The Jeweled Sword had just self-destructed, releasing all the energy it still contained. The cave collapsed, burying the broken magic circles under tons of rocks.

Surprised, the girls turned to the entrance of the caves.

Dust came out of it.

Entrusting Sakura - still unconscious- to Bazett, Pyrrha wanted to rush into the labyrinth for searching Rin but their friend was leaving the entrance at that moment.

She was covered with dust and bleeding from the forehead but did not seem seriously injured.

"And so what? You thought I was going to kill myself to save the world? I obviously timed the detonation!"

She mumbled something about ' impulsive redhead ' but the Amazon Girl didn't know who she was referring to.

"It's over," Luvia asked.

"It's over," said Caster. "I don't feel the presence of Angra Mainyu anymore."

Rin looked at them with amazement.

"But if the Greater Grail is destroyed, why are you still here?"

Archer grabbed Caster and Saber by the arm and began to drag them to the stairs.

"Come on, I feel like we're no longer welcome here. After all, we've done for them, how ungrateful!"

Rin stomped on the ground and squeeze her fists.

"That's not what I meant."

But EMIYA smiled mockingly and the other survivors had fun with their eternal quarrel.

Paracelsus replied.

"In fact, the Heaven Feel Ritual has been damaged... but it still works partially. The Grail is no longer able to grant wishes or understand that the war is over. Nevertheless, the part about invoking the Servants and their connection to the Masters is still intact."

He then pointed to Sakura, still unconscious.

"With the Dark Grail of the Makiri providing us with energy, we can stay in this world."

Illya began jumping up and down entranced by joy.

"So it's a Happy End like in manga."

Paracelsus looked at her carefully...

"Uh yeah, maybe... what do you mean 'like in manga'?"

Illya grabbed Pyrrha's arm and pulled her towards Arthur, also taking his arm to draw them closer together.

"Prince Charming marries the beautiful princess!"

The huntress began to blush violently and turned away in a panic.

But Merlin's voice was heard.

"Arthur? Are you blushing too?"


Happy End

And they lived happily ever after and had many children. Um...no... maybe not.
