Based on his expertise in spirit summoning magic, he was actually able to sense the class of the heroic spirit he was summoning while chanting incantations, so...
"Only the Caster class is left?!"
"What the hell!"
Did Alexander the Great know magic?!
Kenneth had a vague sense of unease.
No, not just faintly, it's a strong sense of foreboding! A very strong one! He searched through all the historical records but couldn't find any legends or records about Alexander the Great being a magician or possessing magical abilities.
So, could it be that the injection went astray?
Even with artifacts, you can still get off-target?
Poor Kenneth was unaware that his least favorite student, Webber, and through the time-traveling bond between him and Iskandar, had prematurely removed Iskandar from his life.
What's even more tragic is that the summoning ritual can no longer be stopped.
The Servant was taken away in advance, and the artifact was essentially given away for free, so his summoning this time became completely random!
However, perhaps it was a case of things turning around for the better, a blinding blue-white light flashed, and a beautiful woman with wheat-colored skin, wearing a white semi-transparent gauze dress, a veil on her face, and an extremely voluptuous figure appeared in front of Kenneth.
Immediately afterwards, a strange fragrance wafted over, causing Kenneth to involuntarily take a deep breath. At the same time, he became incredibly clear-headed, yet also experienced a strange, blissful feeling.
He no longer cared about the Holy Grail War, enemies, or rivals.
At this moment, all he wanted was to spend one or even countless wonderful nights with the woman in front of him, and he didn't want to care about anything else.
Fortunately, he wasn't alone; his fiancée, Sora Nazele Sofiali, was right beside him.
"Kenneth?"
Sora quickly noticed Kenneth's unusual behavior and frowned as she called out to him.
Kenneth, however, seemed not to hear him at all, and continued to stare intently at the mysterious heroic spirit before him.
Sora was not happy about this.
However, she did guess Kenneth's situation from this, so she frowned and shouted at the heroic spirit, "What are you doing? He is your master! You used charm on him?"
As she spoke, two beams of magical light shone from Sora's hands.
She was able to marry Kenneth, who was a monarch, and become his fiancée. She also came from a prestigious magic family, and although her strength was not the strongest, it was not weak either.
However, the heroic spirit then realized what had happened and said apologetically in a soft voice, "I'm sorry, I forgot to put away my unique skill."
As they spoke, the fragrance emanating from the heroic spirit remained, and her figure was still as captivating as ever. However, this captivating charm lacked the magical allure of the past, so Kenneth, a magician focused solely on his career, quickly regained his senses.
"you--"
Kenneth, now fully conscious, immediately showed anger on his face.
He's one of the twelve monarchs of the Clock Tower! To be charmed by such a lowly charm spell is just too damn embarrassing.
However, remembering that his fiancée was still beside him, he tried his best to suppress his anger and pretended that nothing had just happened, and began to ask about the heroic spirit's information.
Clearly, the Caster before him could not be the Alexander the Great he so admired; aside from anything else, their genders were completely different.
Unlike Archer, the Servant opposite him didn't play coy; he frankly revealed his identity, origins, abilities, and attributes.
“Schheelzod? A special attack against kings? A special attack against men?” Kenneth frowned.
That's right, the Heroic Spirit who successfully charmed even the Clock Tower Lord right from the start is none other than Scheherazade, the Caster of the City That Never Sleeps and the heroine of One Thousand and One Nights.
Although his basic attributes are rather poor and his aptitude as a magician is not high, his EX-level luck and Noble Phantasm would definitely make Kitagawa Yu gasp in astonishment if he knew.
Especially the Noble Phantasm One Thousand and One Nights, the damage it dealt to the King was truly terrifying.
In addition, her inherent skill, "Survival's Chamber," has an extremely high charm effect on men, and the EX-level "Anti-Hero" skill can directly reduce the king's attack power by 50%, making her a complete counter to male kings.
However, Kenneth was unaware that three kings had descended during this Holy Grail War, so his Servants were actually ridiculously strong.
At this point, he was still dissatisfied with Scheherazade's poor attributes and lack of magic skills.
However, since the summoning had already been completed, he couldn't push the goods away, so he had no choice but to accept it.
To increase his chances of winning, he plans to immediately travel to Fuyuki City to find a suitable place to build a magic base.
Quite coincidentally, after spending the night at the Winter Castle, Kitagawa Yu also decided to take a plane to Fuyuki City as soon as possible, intending to deal with Gilgamesh, the biggest threat, first.
And so, what a coincidence!
Kenneth and Sora had just spent half an hour collecting their luggage and arrived at the airport exit in Fuyuki City with their bags and packages when they bumped into Kitagawa Yu and his group, who were traveling light and looked like they were on a short trip.
"Weber?!"
Kenneth instinctively gasped in surprise.
There's nothing we can do, this is just too unexpected!
It's not a holiday, so who would have thought that one of his most memorable students would suddenly appear in Fuyuki City, thousands of miles away?
But then he noticed the other people around Webber, and then...
"One, two, three, four... WTF! Four Heroic Spirits?!"
Kenneth quickly scanned Kitagawa Yu's group and immediately recognized the identities of the four Heroic Spirits, including Artoria, except for Medusa who was invisible. His expression changed drastically, as if a thousand mythical beasts were stampeding through his mind.
"These four Heroic Spirits have joined forces?!"
"Damn it! There are only seven Servants in the Holy Grail War!"
"And what's with that big man following Waver around, acting like he's protecting him?! Is Waver a Master too?!"
Honestly, Kenneth was completely devastated at that moment.
However, he quickly realized that now was not the time to worry about these things.
There are four Heroic Spirits on the other side. Will they attack him directly?
In fact, Elena and the others were also considering whether to take action. Even before Kenneth exclaimed in surprise, they had already noticed the undisguised magical fluctuations emanating from him.
However, what puzzled them was that neither Kitagawa Yu nor Emiya Kiritsugu gave any response.
Even Iskandar is the same.
This is the airport entrance/exit, and there are quite a lot of people here. It would be understandable if Kitagawa Yu and Iskandar chose not to make a move, but how could Emiya Kiritsugu let such a good opportunity pass by?
Holding Illya in her arms, with Sera and Lyselite, the two homunculus maids, following behind, Irisviel looked at her husband with a puzzled expression.
At the same time, Elena, Chizuka, and Artoria all looked at Kitagawa Yu.
Upon closer inspection, it was discovered that both Kitagawa Yu and Emiya Kiritsugu had been bewitched. As for Iskandar, he was even more pitiful, being a "king" plus a "male"—wasn't this clearly targeted at him?
As for Gilgamesh, he wouldn't be affected as much as him. After all, Gilgamesh is an extremely self-centered being that even the Holy Grail couldn't corrupt. Apart from his best friend Enkidu, no one can influence his will.
"Oh no, it's an enemy Servant's skill!"
Elena's already extended magical shield rapidly expanded, enveloping Kitagawa Yuya within it.
Artoria also flashed forward, blocking Kitagawa Yu's path. Her school uniform transformed into armor in a gust of wind, and the Curry Stick, concealing its sword, appeared in her hand, pointing directly at Scheherazade, who, although dressed in a modern long dress, still had a veil covering her face and whose energy fluctuations clearly indicated she was a Heroic Spirit.
Chizuka knew her attack was useless against Heroic Spirits, so she magically produced a pistol in her hand and pointed it at Kenneth.
As for Matou Sakura, who was being held in Kitagawa Yu's arms, she pouted when she saw Kitagawa Yu staring intently at Scheherazade as if he were bewitched. Under Elena's guidance last night, she instantly opened up her nascent ability, which she had just begun to master. Although she didn't dare to open it too wide because she was not yet proficient in controlling it, it was just right to block Kitagawa Yu's view, like a mask.
This startled Kitagawa Yu, who had been out of sight, and brought him back to his senses.
"hiss--"
"Not only me, but even the wills of Emiya Kiritsugu and the Emperor couldn't resist being charmed? This level of charm is too high!"
"Wait... this outfit."
"Could it be Scheherazade, the Caster from the City That Never Sleeps?"
A strange look flashed in Kitagawa Yu's eyes.
There are many Servants in the Type-Moon universe who wear veils, but Scheherazade seems to be the only one with darker skin and a more exaggerated figure than Rider.
"If it's Scheherazade, that's not surprising, after all, he's the 'King's Slayer'!"
"EX-level luck combined with an A+ level innate skill, if you can withstand that, then... are you even a man?"
Kitagawa Yu glanced at Kenneth next to Scheherazade and couldn't help but marvel.
"Is Kenneth trying to turn the tide? He actually summoned Scheherazade? Isn't that a perfect counter to Emperor Thaurissan?"
Kitagawa Yu turned his head curiously to look at Iskandar.
At least ten seconds have passed, and Iskandar still hasn't broken free, nor does he seem to be struggling at all. This makes Kitagawa Yu look at Scheherazade's charm skills with even greater respect.
"No wonder she's the legendary woman who could tell that cruel king a thousand and one nights' worth of stories. If the emperor were to face her alone, would he be defeated?"
To be honest, he really wanted to see the Emperor take on Scheherazade one-on-one, and Kenneth and Waver face off as master and apprentice.
Kitagawa Yu thought about it carefully.
He had previously sought an alliance with Waver and Iskandar because Lancelot's Noble Phantasm, Unrepentant Lake Light, was no match for the Excalibur. Therefore, he had to find another way, using Iskandar's army of kings to defeat Saber with sheer numbers.
But plans can't keep up with changes.
Perhaps it was because a second Heroic Spirit had appeared, or perhaps it was simply a case of pragmatism being the best policy, but Emiya Kiritsugu surrendered without even fighting.
Artoria is now his.
Therefore, keeping Iskandar around and forming an alliance with him seems pointless.
Gilgamesh's Ea can be countered with Curry Stick; as long as there is enough magic power, the result will still be a draw.
As for Hassan the Hundred Faces' clones, Medusa's Noble Phantasm, Blood Temple, or even his own actions, are more than enough to deal with them. After all, the clones' strength is probably only about the same as the ordinary Heroic Spirits under the Emperor's command, and there are only about a hundred of them.
So, by this calculation, it turns out that the Emperor's side has lost its restraint.
If the two sides break off relations and engage in battle, and if they cannot instantly eliminate Iskandar or Waver, and Iskandar opens his Mind World, then things will become somewhat troublesome.
If tens of thousands of heroic spirits rush forward, the refining speed of the Medusa Blood Temple may not be able to keep up.
Even if they manage to win, it will probably require all three of them, including Artoria, to work together, as the cost would be too high.
so.
"Hey, Waver, Iskandar, wake up. Sakura, use the same method you used to help me to wake them up." Kitagawa Yuuki couldn't wake them up no matter what he called, so he looked down at Matou Sakura in his arms and said.
Sakura Matou nodded obediently and opened an entrance to an imaginary space in front of Waver and Iskandar. While blocking their vision, she also absorbed and blocked the magical fluctuations released by the charm magic, which finally brought the two back to their senses.
"teacher?!"
