Chapter 31: Satsuki Yumizuka's Struggle Record: MELTY BLOOD Edition

[Preview] Satsuki Yumizuka's Struggle Record: MELTY BLOOD Edition

Satsuki Yumizuka, having settled her score with Roa, begins her life as a vampire.

She takes shelter at the Tohno mansion, spending her days in a noisy yet peaceful routine in the dwelling that has become a supernatural labyrinth where a True Ancestor, an Executor, a mixed-blood, and a Killer Noble gather.

However, evil attracts evil.

Just as that saying goes, a new peril has arrived: the Night of Wallachia.

“A white-haired woman controlling wires, monsters appearing in the alleyways, a man in a hooded jacket wandering around.…This is strange. No matter how you look at it, it seems like they are reproducing the key figures of the Fourth Holy Grail War.”

Satsuki Yumizuka, who had just finished dealing with a starfish-shaped monster,

once again held her head in disbelief at the fact that the flow of rumors had completely separated her from the [Original Work].

The current rumors are among humans, but she braced herself, knowing it was only a matter of time before rumors of the Heroic Spirits would spread.

“Satsuki Yumizuka, a foreign element like you is throwing everything into chaos—You shall perish here!”

Sion Eltnam Atlasia, who had been chasing the Night of Wallachia, arrives.

However, upon learning about Satsuki Yumizuka, a being perhaps more abnormal than the TATARI (Calamity) itself, Sion seeks to eliminate her.

“No mistake, that is a reproduction of a Servant. That was the Assassin summoned in the Fourth Holy Grail War; I couldn’t possibly be mistaken.”

“It is as you say… but it is strange. I’ve never heard of anyone in this city who knows about the Holy Grail War or Servants.”

Ciel, sensing the abnormality of the TATARI, calls upon a man who once participated in a Holy Grail War.

The result is damning, but it means that someone who knows about the Holy Grail War is in Misaki Town, leaving Ciel perplexed.

“How utterly unpleasant. This time, I’ll burn you to ashes—Brother.”

“Ah, ha, hahahaha!! Are you going to kill me again, Akiha?!”

Akiha Tohno once again faces the darkness of the Tohno family, even if it is a dream or an illusion.

Her blood-related brother(SHIKI) convulses and bursts into laughter at the declaration of murder she has just made.

“A—ugh!?”

She exerted her full vampire strength and managed to avoid the twin spears for a long time, but even as a shadow, a Heroic Spirit is still a Heroic Spirit.

Lancer’s spear, thrust in a moment of weakness, pierces Satsuki’s shoulder.

“Hey, you. Are you really human? It’s impossible for anyone normal to live with something like that sealed inside their chest.”

“To discern my situation with a single glance… I see, as expected of the True Ancestor Princess.”

Arcueid Brunestud narrows her crimson eyes, observing the priest.

She directs a killing intent that warps the surrounding air toward him, but the priest remains unperturbed.

“Where did I make the wrong calculation? That is what I want to know. Satsuki Yumizuka, do you understand? Even after seeing your data, I still cannot comprehend.”

Sion questions Satsuki Yumizuka, the cause and singularity of this world and this incident.

“Ku, kuh, kuhahahaha!! I thank you, my Lord. Even if it is a shadow, a fleeting illusion of one night, for giving me the chance to settle the score with that man…!!”

Kirei Kotomine cries out in joy.

Standing in his line of sight is a man wearing a worn-out coat.

The man’s name is—Kiritsugu Emiya.

The strongest enemy they once killed each other over in the Fourth Holy Grail War.

Kirei Kotomine’s greatest obstacle, the one he must defeat, was standing right there.

“—Ha, hahahahaha. I see, I see, I see you cannot reach me. Do you mean to say that even after continuing the Tatari for thousands of years, you cannot reach me, Red Moon!!!

But! I will not perish! I will not perish! Even if this night is my end.

If I take you down, this lie will vanish. If this method proves insufficient from the start, then this night’s dream is over.

I will consume you entirely and use that power to enact my next plan!!! My name is the Night of Wallachia. An immortal existence that has become a phenomenon!!!”

“Sion, Shiki, here it comes!”

“Yes!”

“I know it…!!”

On the rooftop of a building named Shrine or Temple.

Satsuki Yumizuka, Sion Eltnam Atlasia, and Shiki Tohno stand in front of Arcueid to protect her.

Only with her, who is the embodiment of the Moon a thousand years in the future, can the TATARI be reduced to mere vampirism.

Conversely, once she finishes materializing the Moon, the TATARI will revert to a phenomenon.

To prevent this, they must protect her with all their might.

“Sion and I will be the shields, Shiki, you exploit the opening.”

“Understood. Let’s end this quickly.”

“Yes, let’s end this nightmare here.”

"As a magus, it is my duty and responsibility to leave descendants. I intend to incorporate his exceptional talent into the Eltnam lineage. Besides, well... I've fallen in love with him as a woman. So, please accept Shiki as my husband, Akiha."

Blushing, yet with the most triumphant expression possible, Sion declared this to the people gathered in the room.

Akiha was utterly bewildered by her brazenness, Kohaku’s smile froze, and Hisui fainted from the shock.

Arcueid’s eyes turned into dots, and Ciel was dumbfounded.

And Satsuki, who had inadvertently provided the extra knowledge, began to escape reality.

The End.
