Chen Anxia looked at the shocked people and responded directly, "Yes, reaching the root is the ultimate goal of magicians. From the age of the gods to modern times, thousands of magicians have tried various methods to reach the root. And the Holy Grail War is one of them."
Artoria, Emiya Kiritsugu, and Cu Chulainn were stunned, never expecting that the Holy Grail War was created because of this.
Emiya Kiritsugu suppressed the shock in his heart and asked, "There is a problem here. Since the Holy Grail War was created by magicians to reach the source, what about these heroic spirits that were summoned? We need to know the characteristics of the heroic spirits. Isn’t the goal the source?”
"If what you said is true, then from the beginning of the Holy Grail War, although heroic spirits may have been summoned, it is absolutely impossible for them to fight each other so desperately for the so-called Holy Grail."
Hearing this, Artoria clenched the invisible sword tightly in her hand, gritted her teeth and said, "If it's for the so-called path to the source, I will never listen to the call."
Cu Chulainn also said, "If someone calls me, I will appear, but not for the so-called Holy Grail, but for a hearty fight."
Upon seeing this, Chen Anxia glanced at Emiya Kiritsugu with some admiration. Unexpectedly, Emiya Kiritsugu could find the key point at once. Chen Anxia said directly without hesitation, "Yes, if this is really the case, how can the heroic spirit obey the order?" ”
"But before answering this question, we need to think about another question. In fact, in this Holy Grail War, as the third family of the magic family, we can participate in the war ourselves. So, why do we need heroic spirits to participate in the war?"
Chen Anxia's words suddenly stunned the three of Artoria. It was already a preconceived notion that heroic spirits would participate in the Holy Grail War. It seemed to be a matter of course, and no one had ever thought about the contradiction.
If you think about it carefully now, you will find many dissonances.
Make an assumption, if the Holy Grail was not created, but a treasure that emerged from heaven and earth, it does have the ability to realize any wish.
So there is a question, why is there a Holy Grail War? Why did the Holy Grail have to go through a brutal war to appear?
Taking a step back, even if these are the prerequisites for the Holy Grail to appear, why do they have to have Masters and Heroic Spirits participate in the Holy Grail War?
You know, even if there are no heroic spirits, Masters who are magicians themselves can participate in this so-called Holy Grail War, and the process of the war is also very tragic.
And the most important point is why heroic spirits must obey their master's orders, why there are command spells, and why the Holy Grail War system exists.
And all of this points to what Chen Anxia just said, that is, the Holy Grail was created, and the Holy Grail War was also human-led.
However, there is another problem. If it is explained in this way, the Holy Grail should be an attempt by magicians to reach the source, then why do heroic spirits participate in the Holy Grail War?
All of this was like a maze. As Artoria, Emiya Kiritsugu, and Cu Chulainn thought about it, they felt as if they were back to the starting point.
Seeing this, Chen Anxia couldn't help but said, "Actually, the initial Holy Grail summoning ceremony was conducted in the form of cooperative summoning. In other words, summoning the Holy Grail does not actually require mutual war between masters."
"However, the subsequent situation evolved into Tosaka, the Einzbern family, and the Machiri family competing for exclusive power. The result naturally ended in failure."
"After learning their lesson, the three Yus established the Holy Grail Covenant and established the rules that are still in use today. This also started the first Holy Grail War, which was to call other magicians and let them kill each other for the purpose of the Holy Grail. "
“In their view, other than themselves, all magicians who can summon heroic spirits are obstructions, and they can just let them die in battle.
"
"However, since there were no formal rules set in advance, the Master's consciousness as a participant was thin. On the other hand, since the First Holy Grail War did not have a command spell system, there were reasons such as the followers disobeying orders. Therefore, the first The summoning of the Second Holy Grail failed before it could take the form of a ritual."
After a pause, Chen Anxia continued, "So, there is another question here, and that is why other magicians are called. If the Holy Grail is really a universal wishing machine, then wouldn't the fewer contenders, the better?"
Artoria, Emiya Kiritsugu, and Cu Chulainn were confused, confused, and puzzled when they heard this, but they were even more shocked, because they seemed to have a premonition in their hearts, and therefore their eyes couldn't help but Looked at Chen Anxia.
Chen Anxia felt the gaze directed at her, closed her eyes slightly, and said with a heavy tone, "Actually, there are two Holy Grails that govern the Holy Grail War."
"One is called the Great Holy Grail by the Yusan Family, and the other is the Holy Grail robbed by the Holy Grail War, which is also the Small Holy Grail."
"You must know that summoning heroic spirits cannot usually be activated with personal magic power. At this time, the Great Holy Grail is needed." "The reason why the Holy Grail War is divided into sixty years is to save enough energy to summon heroic spirits. In these sixty years, in order to prevent this land full of magic from drying up, we have absorbed it bit by bit. When a sufficient amount is stored, the Holy Grail War will begin. "
"As for the body of the Great Holy Grail, it is actually a huge magic circle. Note that I am talking about the magic circle, because both the Great Holy Grail and the Small Holy Grail were created based on the third method among the five methods."
"And one way to reach the root is magic, so the main purpose of the Great Holy Grail is to open the door to the root."
"So how did the Great Holy Grail open the door to the source? Your heroic spirits are involved here, and it is also the most important reason why the Holy Grail War requires heroic spirits."
As he spoke, Chen Anxia looked at Artoria, whose expression became very exciting, and continued, "We all know that the Seat of Heroic Spirits is outside the world, and once a heroic spirit dies in the Holy Grail War, the soul will return to the Seat of Heroic Spirits. , waiting for the next call.”
"This soul of heroic spirits is also the most fundamental reason why the Holy Grail War requires heroic spirits to participate in the war. You can think of the Small Holy Grail as a tool to recover the souls of defeated heroic spirits and the magical power of the heroic spirits. It is also used to activate the power furnace of the Great Holy Grail."
"When more and more heroic spirits die in battle, the Small Holy Grail will be filled with the soul weight and activation magic power necessary to activate the Great Holy Grail."
"At that time, the Little Holy Grail will release the stored heroic souls in an instant, and use the process of the heroic souls to return to the Seat of Heroic Spirits. That is, using the heroic souls from outside the world to open a cave, and then use The power of the Great Holy Grail fixes this slightly opened cave, and then uses the human body to open the unreachable source."
"This is the purpose for which the Holy Grail War was originally created. However, we all know that there is a price to pay for summoning heroic spirits. If they cannot fulfill their wishes, the heroic spirits will not respond to our summons."
"So the Yusan family made up a seemingly noble and high-sounding reason to trick the heroic spirits into voluntarily and actively participating in the war."
"And this reason is to claim that the Holy Grail is a universal wishing machine, thereby inducing heroic spirits with wishes to be willing to be summoned and even obey the master's orders."
"In other words, this Holy Grail War has been a scam from the beginning. All the Holy Grail War requires are the souls of heroic spirits. No matter what their spiritual status is, as long as they are powerful souls."
"And the Yusan family made superficial Holy Grail War rules in order to hide it, deceiving the servants and the master, and let them kill each other to this day."
Chen Anxia's words were like a magnitude 10 earthquake, shaking the hearts of Artoria and Emiya Kiritsugu violently. Their original cognitive views gradually began to quietly disintegrate at this moment.
"How is this possible, how is this possible..." Emiya Kiritsugu muttered as he was somewhat denying reality. If all of this was true, then it would be really terrible. It was actually a scam from the beginning.
Artoria even said to herself in despair, "Impossible, this is impossible!"
As she spoke, Arturia couldn't control the shock and anger in her heart, and swung the sword in her hand with all her strength. In an instant, a hurricane blew through, stirring up gravel to penetrate the air, and a 2-meter-wide streak appeared on the hard ground. , plow marks about 8 meters long.
Cu Chulainn's face also became extremely ugly. They really didn't expect that there would be such a dark fact behind the Holy Grail War.
However, these guys who dare to play with the heroic spirits are absolutely unforgivable! !
