Chapter 855: Sakura's Sudden Dark Transformation!
Chapter 855: Sakura's Sudden Dark Transformation!
One of the reasons Night City wanted to get involved in the Fifth Holy Grail War was that he had already obtained what he desired.
On the other hand, compared to the Fourth Holy Grail War, the situation of the Fifth Holy Grail War was like a grand family drama.
It was already complicated with the addition of Gurou Sakaki, but now let's take a look at the participants of the Fourth Holy Grail War.

Although Shirou Emiya is currently holed up at Ryudou Temple with Sasaki Kojiro, there's no need to elaborate on his relationship with Illya and the others.
In the entire Fourth Holy Grail War, out of seven Heroic Spirits and six Masters, only the injured Father Kotomine and the Kuran's defeated dog were not related. The rest were practically one big family!

Before this, Saito Shiro didn't understand why Illya knew him and held such animosity towards him.

"Mother..."
"
To be honest, it was a bit awkward for Saito Shiro to call someone so young, whom he had only met once when he was little, 'mother'.
S
But as his foster son who has lived with him all this time, I can feel that Father has also borne a heavy burden over the years, so..."
"So you want us to forgive him?"
"Although I didn't fulfill the duty of raising you, in terms of identity, I am indeed your foster mother. So, calling you 'Shiro' is fine, right?"
I
"Shiro, first of all, there's something I need to clarify. I never hated Shirou Emiya; I was just utterly disappointed in him.
You are indeed the child he raised, and in some ways, your ideals and personalities are quite similar.
However, from Saber's attitude towards you, it seems you lack many of Shirou Emiya's shortcomings.

However, just as she had escaped Saito Shiro's entanglement, she was stopped again by Sakura and Medea.

And this was precisely what Xiao Sakura and Meidiya cared about the most. After all, they were going to participate in the Holy Grail War, and a significant reason for that was Ye Cheng.
Especially for Xiao Sakura, during these ten years, she had been constantly searching for Ye Cheng, but to her dismay, her teacher had vanished like a puff of smoke, completely disappearing from this world.

Ye Cheng held great importance for Xiao Sakura and Meidiya, and she naturally understood this. However, she was also worried. If Ye Cheng returned to Xiao Sakura and Meidiya's side, would he still help her rescue Illya? Moreover, Ye Cheng was familiar with the Einzbern Family's situation. If he didn't choose to come back, did he have his own reasons?
"Rider, as your Master, I command you to use your Noble Phantasm to utterly crush Berserker!"
Xiao Sakura originally didn't have deep hostility towards Illya, but the current situation was different.
She, who was already on the brink of corruption, suddenly received news about Ye Cheng. Naturally, she couldn't suppress the restless emotions, so she went berserk on the spot!
If not for the fact that she had experienced the nightmare of the Insect Nest, Xiao Sakura wouldn't have fallen into corruption.
But Ye Cheng overlooked one thing: he had abandoned Xiao Sakura for ten years, and this was no less of a blow to Xiao Sakura than her childhood nightmare!
For Ye Cheng, who had just passed through a wormhole, it was only a brief moment. But for Xiao Sakura, it was a full ten years.
When she was young, she had experienced her family's betrayal and abandonment. It wasn't easy for her to find a glimmer of hope, and Ye Cheng had promised to stay by her side and never abandon her.
But what happened? Ye Cheng disappeared for ten years. Who knew how she had endured these ten years!
After meeting Meidiya, she had comforted herself, thinking that Teacher Ye Cheng hadn't abandoned her but was trapped somewhere.
B
Upon learning this truth, Xiao Sakura felt a mix of joy, confusion, and a surge of emotions like misunderstanding, resentment, and hatred.
You promised never to abandon Xiao Sakura! If you weren't missing, why didn't you come to find me during this long time?
"Kill! I will kill you all! You must have imprisoned Teacher Ye Cheng in a despicable way; you all deserve to die!"
Terrifying magic erupted from Xiao Sakura's body, and because of her "corruption," the Heroic Spirits Meidiya and Medusa, who provided her with magic, also became significantly stronger.
As the saying goes, corruption makes one ten times stronger, and purification weakens by three. Although she didn't have the boost from "This World's Evil" at the moment, it might be an exaggeration to say she was ten times stronger, but compared to ten years ago when she was affected by "This World's Evil," her magic power had indeed increased significantly.
S
If nothing unexpected had happened to Ye Cheng during these ten years, he would never have neglected Xiao Sakura. There must be some hidden circumstances that they were unaware of.
