Intertwined Family's Grand Mansion.
Hina Intertwined brought the knight Medusa to the room of his grandfather Intertwined Zhuantan, and said with a fearful tone:
"Brother, he's dead!"
"Dead?"
Intertwined Zhuantan, leaning on a cane, revealed a trace of surprise on his face.
Subsequently, Hina Intertwined revealed to Intertwined Zhuantan all the intelligence passed on by Medusa, one by one and in detail.
After gaining temporary control of Medusa, Jin Akira mixed with Supervisor Yoake Kirei and set up a soul-devouring barrier within the school.
Tonight was originally supposed to support Yanpei Kirei together with Gilgamesh, but George directly shot his head at the beginning and killed him.
With Jin Akira's death, Medusa naturally returned to the true master, Hina Intertwain.
As for what happened later and who won, Medusa didn't know.
"A waste, just like his father."
For the death of the only bloodline of the Intertwain family, there was no sadness or sorrow on Intertwain Zhu'an's face; it was as if a mere insect had died.
At this time, what he was thinking about in his heart was the probability of winning the fifth Holy Grail War.
The participants in the fourth Holy Grail War were too strong, and after the defeat of his second son, Intertwain Yan Ye, he chose to give up.
But this time, he used the fragments of the Little Grail shattered by King Arthur during the fourth Holy Grail War as a catalyst to generate an imprint, which he stored within Hina, transforming her into an incomplete Little Grail.
If Hina could win in the end, he could guide the Angra Mainyu within the Holy Grail into her body.
At that time, the imprint bug he left in Hina's body could occupy her corporeal form, indirectly achieving immortality.
Now that Jin Akira is dead, he actually thinks this is a good thing.
At least everyone will think that the Intertwain family has been eliminated, which will make them relax their guard, allowing him to take advantage of the situation as a bystander.
Just like at the church now, they must have blown a gasket.
He is well aware of the strength of Gilgamesh; combined with Yoake Kirei and the Gunner, they can definitely take on the Swordsmen, Berserker, and Archer.
It would be best if both sides were to destroy each other, so he would only have to help Hina deal with the two at the Yagokai Temple and complete his plan.
"Then in this case, I will continue to represent the family in the Holy Grail War from now on!"
"But Grandfather, I... I don't want to participate."
Hina's face showed a pleading expression.
Once she enters the Holy Grail War, her peaceful life will come to an end, and she may even find herself standing against Kiritsugu Shirou and her older sister, Kirisame Tohsaka.
However, upon hearing Hina's request, Intertwain Zhuantan revealed a cold expression on his face.
"You have no right to refuse, or I will go first and kill Kiritsugu Shirou, then make you wish you were dead!"
Activating the imprint bug buried in Hina's body, her body was immediately corrupted, and she helplessly collapsed to the ground.
"Don't worry, as long as you win the Holy Grail War, I will extract the imprint bug in your body and let you live a normal life like everyone else."
Kiritsugu Shirou won't know about your experiences these years, and you can marry him, have children, and live a happy life.”
The big stick and the carrot method always works.
Hina Intertwined began to waver in her eyes after hearing Intertwain Zhuantan's promise.
As long as she could live a happy life with Kiritsugu Shirou for the rest of her life, she was willing to do anything.
Just as she was about to agree, a voice suddenly sounded within the room:
"Little girl, actually, I have a better option here."
As long as you're willing to give me your command seals, I can not only remove the imprint bug in your body but also help you take out the pseudo Holy Grail that this old man has placed inside you.
If necessary, I can also help you kill him.
The person who arrived was George, who had hired the magician and assassin at the Yagokai Temple.
"Who dares to intrude on my Intertwain family?"
Upon seeing a young man suddenly appear behind Hina Intertwined, Intertwain Zhuantan's face changed immediately.
In an instant, he waved his hand, and a piece of imprint bug had already attacked George.
George opened his mouth, spewing a ball of tri-colored flames that incinerated the incoming imprint bug into ash.
"I am the master of the Swordsman you were just discussing, as well as the one who killed your grandson."
"Does that mean that Yanpei Kirei lost?"
Intertwain Zhu'an squinted his eyes.
Internally, he felt that there was still a greater possibility of Yanpei Kirei winning over there in the church.
Although the servants were two against three and the master was one against three, Yanpei Kirei was still the one who nearly emerged victorious in the fourth Holy Grail War.
Moreover, he is cunning and sly, and even he is wary of him.
As for Gilgamesh, his strength is even abnormal among the Servants, making him a rare occurrence.
But I didn't expect that the one who finally won was this complete stranger in front of me, who had no information at all.
"Good, you guessed right, but there's no reward."
George didn't bother to waste his time with Intertwain Zhuantan and went straight up to try to compel him to divulge his true intentions.
He always felt that this Intertwain family head, whose body was said to be made up of insects, must be hiding some kind of secret.
Otherwise, why would he have placed a pseudo Holy Grail inside Hina's body?
"Hina, kill him!"
Seeing George reaching out to him, Intertwain Zhu'an immediately issued a command to Hina on the other side, but he found that Hina and the Cavalier Medusa seemed to have been petrified, and were unable to move.
"You intrude on the Intertwain family and attack me maliciously; do you not fear the sanctions of the Church and the Mage's Association?"
Upon discovering that Hina Intertwined and the Cavalier had been subdued instantly, his face turned pale.
One side of his body, which had been completely turned into insects to evade the attack, issued a threat to George.
Without using a Servant, he had easily subdued Hina Intertwined, whose magical power was incredibly strong, and Medusa, who had fully recovered in the power supply provided by Hina.
Even in his prime, he would have had a hard time doing this.
Clearly, the strength of this young stranger was even more powerful than his prime.
Absolutely not something he can handle now.
So, he had no choice but to resort to the threat of the Church and the Mage's Association.
The Holy Grail War has its own rules; as the master of a Swordsman, he could attack his competitor Hina and Medusa, but he could not attack him, the head of the Intertwain family without cause.
Once discovered, he would face collective pursuit by the Church and the Mage's Association.
"Lock me down!"
Seeing Intertwain Zhu'an turning into insects and trying to escape, George raised his hand and cast a freeze spell, locking him in place mid-air.
He simply doesn't take the Church and the Mage's Association into account.
Besides, if he kills Intertwain Zhuantan, there's no one to report it, and the Church and the Mage's Association won't have that many idle resources to investigate.
What Yanpei Kirei did was much more serious, yet it was just swept under the rug.
"Let me see what kind of guy you are."
Freezing Intertwain Zhuantan in place, George read his memories.
After a considerable amount of time, he withdrew his hand and said in astonishment:
"I never expected that you are the first head of the Intertwain family, one of the main creators of the Holy Grail War."
