Fate/Zero:Act 4 Part 3

-153:50:22

Prana is consumed not just to keep the Servant materialized, but also for the least effort they do. Thus in battle, the consumption rate is all the higher. The prana is extracted from the Master's magic circuits, and is supplied to the Servant.

And the activation of the magic circuits, in Matō Kariya's case, means a hell of pain by having his body eaten by the crest worms.

When dematerialized, the prana consumption is at its minimum. Still, in that state, Kariya would sometime be tortured with palpitations and dizziness.

But when Berserker was materialized, the agony was beyond imagination.

The foreign body awakens, starts eating his flesh, creaking his bones. Acting as Kariya's pseudo magic circuits, the crest worms supply the sucked off prana to Berserker without concern for the host's limits.

Speaking about agony isn't even half of it. Being corroded, plundered by a living creature inside his body —the pain of being devoured alive doubles with fear and disgust.

"Guh... Ga, gwa...hh!!"
