Start of Chaos

*Rumble!*

The whole earth, sky, and everything were trembling.

Under the loud rumbling and a huge tremor, the huge hanging garden rose to the night sky little by little, bathed in the moonlight.

Haru had to admit that this scene was beautiful. Unfortunately, the owner of this sky garden was his enemy.

The servants of the Red Faction, standing beside Shirou, looking at the people below.

Karna held his sharp spear that was burnt in flames.

Achilles might look frivolous, but his lust toward the battlefield was shown and he was eager to fight as soon as possible.

Atalante's eyes were sharp, staring at a single young man.

These three servants were standing beside Shirou, with a strong aura, causing everyone below could tell how strong those three servants were.

The magicians from the Yggdmillennia clan were all shocked and couldn't move, watching this hanging garden, especially Darnic.

"You..."

Looking at Shirou who was at the center among the servants of the Red Faction, Darnic's eyes widened and he couldn't maintain his calm. He was full of shock and disbelief.

"You... you're...?!"

As if seeing a ghost, Darnic stepped back several steps with a shocked expression, because he had seen this youth in the Third Holy Grail War in Fuyuki City.

As a master at the time, Darnic met the servants of the Einzbern family and even fought each other.

However...

"Impossible! Impossible!"

Darnic screamed in horror, couldn't believe the reality in front of him. "How could you be here?! How could you appear here?!"

Obviously, Darnic didn't know that Shirou had been in contact with the Holy Grail, and under the influence of the Holy Grail, Shirou obtained a body in this world and had been living very well in this world after the Third Holy Grail War.

If they counted the year difference from the Third Holy Grail War to this time Holy Grail War, then Shirou had been living in this world for the past sixty to seventy years.

In response, Shirou showed a nostalgic smile when he saw Darnic.

"It's been a long time since I saw you, thanks to you, I have been looking for the Holy Grail for the past sixty to seventy years."

Shirou said as if talking to himself.

"Although there are many things that I want to say to you, it seems like you don't want to talk to me at all, which is a pity."

His words were full of regret and made Darnic even more shaken.

The calmness and wisdom that appeared on Darnic usually had long lost gone. The appearance of Shirou caused had too much impact on him.

Of course, it wasn't only Darnic who was hit since from the conversation earlier, everyone understood.

The Holy Grail has been taken away!

It was being taken by the hanging garden in front of them!

"Why?"

Fiore said in disbelief.

"Why did the masters and the servants of the Red Faction appear in our stronghold, but we didn't notice it at all?"

They felt that it was very unreasonable!

The Fortress of Millennia had an enhancement, trap, a patrol from both golem and homunculus. This place's defense of this place was the tightest among any place in the world.

The enhancement and protection of that level, for the servant, they might be able to destroy it, but it was impossible to destroy it without attracting attention from anyone within the fortress, especially when there were a lot of servants inside.

How did they do it?"

The one who answered this question was, of course, the main character of this story.

"Isn't it obvious?" Haru let out a sigh and said, "Look who is missing here?"

After being reminded by Haru, everyone immediately became alert!

"Where is Caster?!"

The one who asked this question was Caules, and he couldn't help but exclaim when he found out.

"And where's Caster's master, Roche?"

Roche and Caster are gone!

This phenomenon, coupled with this situation, was very easy to understand and their expression turned grim.

Vlad III raised his head, his face was distorted by anger and his blood was boiling since he couldn't contain his emotion, however, it was a normal thing, as a King of Romania, there was only one thing that he hated the most in his life...

Traitor!

"Have you betrayed me?"

Vlad III was known as a brutal and bloodthirsty king, which caused him to be named a vampire and turned him into the Dracula in the legend, finally, showing his brutal side, full of hostility, and anger. He stared at the man who had betrayed him and caused a mess in everything.

"AVICEBRON!!!"

Avicebron is also known as Solomon ibn Gabirol.

He was an eleventh-century poet and philosopher. He was born in Malaga, Spain, and although he did not have the glory of a knight or king or the recognition of having produced works of art that would prosper for thousands of years, he coined the name of an entire thaumaturgical system, Kabbalah, and was one of the starting points of the process leading up to the European Renaissance through Greco-Arab and Jewish lore and enlightenment to the cultural circles of Europe. He is recognized as a "hero" who heavily influenced both the history of the world and thaumaturgy.

Avicebron was also the one who brought the magic theory of the golemancy.

Golemancy is the practice of creating golems, meaning "embryo" or "molded being", a practice compared to being an attempt to "reproduce the secret mystery of how God created the human Adam."

According to legend, human beings are formed by God from clay.

Therefore, golemancy which mimicked God was created from soil, rock, trees, and all the things which related.

Avicebron created this magic theory, and it wasn't an exaggeration to say that he was the founder of this teaching, he also had greatly influenced the world of Magus in this world.

The real name of the Caster of Black was Avicibron.

Now, this servant has betrayed the Black Faction!

It was all because of Caster of Black who had been betraying the Black Faction secretly, causing all the enhancements, protection, traps, etc in the Fortress of Millennia to fail to notice and even be destroyed, causing an invasion from the Red Faction.

The appearance of the hanging garden and Shirou along with all the servants of the Red Faction on the Fortress of Millennia was all because of Avicebron.

"I also have my own wish, King."

With such words, Avicebron, dressed in a full-body suit, and a blue mantle materialized beside Shirou. He lowered his head that was covered in a featureless mask and looked at the furious Vlad III.

"I want to realize my wish in my life, and use Kabbalah's magic to imitate God and create the original human, Adam."

Adam, the first man, was living in the paradise that was created by God.

Avicebron's wish was to use Kabbalah to create Adam, but that wish was unable to be completed since he had died, now, he was ready to realize it.

"So after meeting secretly with Amakusa Shirou Tokisada, I was persuaded."

Avicebron said so.

"After all, the odds of winning here seem to be greater, and my wish can be realized faster."

Following these words, Avicebron slowly raised his hand, and suddenly, countless huge black shadows fell from the hanging garden.

Golem.

The golems that were originally created by the materials that were provided by Yggdmillennia had become enemies!"

*BOOM!* *BOOM!* *BOOM!*

The golems fell heavily to the ground, creating countless "boom" sounds along with tremors on the ground.

At the same time, the hanging garden also scattered countless sharp teeth. The moment it fell to the ground, it immediately turned similar to a tree seed, but it didn't grow into a tree, but rather grew into a skeleton soldier, holding a bone sword, crawling out of the ground.

Thousands of troops appeared on the ground.

"All right."

Shirou closed his eyes and made a gesture similar to a prayer.

"Let's start."

With such words, the whole world turned into a battlefield.
