"The primal command held by lineages that have continued since the Common Era."
"The most sublime blood commandment in the world of magecraft."
"An absolute pride of strict adherence, like a curse, sacrificing for that mission until the clan's extinction."
A pitch-black figure stood behind the Throne. Even Super Akatsuki, who had already reached the Root, failed to sense her presence. This was gaia from the world of Akatsuki, and the primal order surging deep within her soul was governing her actions.
"In this world, that is what is known as the Grand Order—but at its core, it is the same concept: a curse originating from the source of the lineage."
Ye Keer had suppressed that curse with her own power. The primal curse flowing deep in her soul had no choice but to find a host with a similar bloodline to parasitize, and that host was her half-sister. However, she never expected that this curse would cross the boundaries of worlds and persist even after she became gaia.
She was not the gaia of the FGO world. Her brief arrival had not caused any changes to this world, but the curse drove her to remember everything happening within the current Temple of Time.
Using gaia's authority, she recorded everything occurring on this planet.
This couldn't help but remind her of the legends regarding the ancestors of the Ye Family.
According to legend, the ancestors of the Ye Family were descendants of gods. Every head of the family bore a secret—a secret that was the key to opening a new era and, simultaneously, a weapon to end the old one.
However, none of the family heads were interested in this secret, so they never utilized its power until her father uncovered a corner of it.
A vast amount of theoretical knowledge regarding soul development and personality experimentation was discovered. Yet, theory is ultimately just theory; without practice, it remains nothing more than a concept.
Ye Keer was dismissive of it. She had easily suppressed the primal curse awakened by her father, but not everyone was a genius from birth like Ye Keer.
Although she didn't know what the primal curse inside her intended to do, she could neither resist nor defy it. She lacked the courage to shoot herself after discovering the truth, like the Lev of other worlds, and she also lacked Ye Keer's talent.
The bands of light in the sky completely dissipated, replaced by a Crimson Moon. The Crimson Moon hung high in the sky, and the King of the Moon, Earth, and True Ancestors sat upon the Throne within the Millennium Castle. The UO known as Super Akatsuki was now invincible in this world.
The divinity she had bestowed upon that body when creating it, as well as the channel for the resurrection of the King of the Moon, Crimson Moon, were now within Super Akatsuki. The Akatsuki who had been cast out, though holding the title of King of Earth and True Ancestors, had not essentially reached the Root nor replaced Crimson Moon. At best, she was merely the UO of Earth tainted with a hint of the Root's essence.
"At this rate, my backup plan will be rendered useless..."
Since divinity was held by the root moon, the "Anti-Divinity Noble Phantasm" she had prepared would be of little use. It was this very Noble Phantasm that she had relied on to force Akatsuki into the Root, much like the "Anti-True Ancestor Special Attack" possessed by the intruding Assassin.
Akatsuki was strong, yet simultaneously very weak.
With the dual factors of divinity and being a True Ancestor layered upon Akatsuki, as long as one could target either of them, she could likely be severely wounded or even killed.
Just like a Magician encountering an Origin Bullet.
But Super Akatsuki, who had entered the Root, was different. That was the Root; even she herself had never entered it. She didn't know what Super Akatsuki had obtained or seen within the Root, but she was certain that the one currently remodeling the Temple of Time was Akatsuki, yet also not Akatsuki.
Speaking of which, gaia also knew the origins of the Assassin summoned by Neco Arc. In the world that originally accommodated the error, he was the one who incited the wave of True Ancestor extermination.
A man who researched a poison targeting True Ancestors while being harmless to humans, who honed his ancestral assassination techniques to the extreme, and a Magician who inherited his grandfather's Magecraft Crest.
To be honest, gaia hadn't even noticed his existence at first. It wasn't until that man killed Roa, known as the serpent of akasha, with his self-made poison one night that she discovered the problem.
Roa was completely killed, and the script of tsukihime collapsed.
When the Church found that man, the world's fate was already decided. The Church, which had previously been wary of the True Ancestors' power, immediately launched a hunt for them the moment they obtained the Poison of the True Ancestors.
No matter the means, all True Ancestors and Dead Apostles had to be expelled—not a single one left!
This extreme ideology permeated the entire Church.
As time passed, the Church included all vampire species in their subjugation. With the gradual strengthening and perfection of the Poison of the True Ancestors, the Church finally arrived at the Millennium Castle and killed the slumbering Arcueid.
But this was not the end.
Arcueid, who was suddenly killed, ultimately allowed Crimson Moon to resurrect within her body. The moment the King of the Moon was revived, everyone who had entered the Millennium Castle died.
After his resurrection, the King of the Moon learned of the existence of the Poison of the True Ancestors. Consequently, he used forceful means to unify all vampire species and launched a war against humanity.
The sudden uprising directly destroyed Fuyuki City, where the Fifth Holy Grail War was taking place.
Fuyuki City was destroyed, and the FSN script failed.
The greater grail fell into the hands of Crimson Moon, stabilizing Arcueid's body, which had been constantly collapsing due to hosting Crimson Moon. It was also in this year that the creator of the Poison of the True Ancestors found a way to force his way into the Root.
However, he was eventually beaten down by the combined efforts of gaia and alaya. Perhaps because Kiritsugu Emiya had Saber strike the correct spot during the Fourth Holy Grail War, the greater grail in the Fifth Holy Grail War was not polluted by Angra Mainyu.
But the bands of light that had appeared in the sky at some unknown point made gaia's heart sink.
At some point, this place had become a Singularity, and even gaia and alaya had become existences within it.
Of course, Gudao, Fujimaru Ritsuka, and others worked together to restore the Singularity. At the moment the Singularity collapsed, Crimson Moon used the hidden greater grail of Fuyuki City and the power of the King of the Moon to create a Lostbelt!
It was because of this that the personified gaia and alaya were able to survive and replace the original gaia and alaya of that world.
"Akatsuki's growth has still far exceeded my expectations, but she doesn't seem to intend to retaliate against me for forcing her into the Root for now..."
