A crossover anime, where people are in Classroom of the Imaginary Era, and behind the scenes, the ki

Flat scratched his head and replied somewhat embarrassedly:

"It's true!"

"With your keen senses, teacher, I'm sure you could have noticed that there was no trace of magic flowing on that young lady just now, right?"

"That kind of spatial travel... it's just like the portals in sci-fi movies, super cool, right!"

Weber sighed.

Although he was a hundred times unwilling to admit it, his magician's intuition told him that Flat was right.

There were no signs of magic on these girls.

But that's precisely why he felt even more troubled.

He resignedly pulled a cigar from his coat pocket, lit it, took a deep drag, and prepared to use his most proficient suggestion magic to collectively hypnotize the witnesses around him who had seen things they shouldn't have, in order to maintain the principle of secrecy.

Seeing this, Sakayanagi Arisu awkwardly covered her lips with her folding fan and chuckled:

"Oh dear, I'm so sorry, Mr. El-Melloi II."

"Because the worlds we've been through before don't have the hidden setting like yours where 'the more people know, the less magic there is'... so we inevitably acted a bit too flamboyantly. We'll definitely be more careful next time."

Weber's fingers, which were holding a cigar, trembled slightly.

He exhaled a smoke ring with a sigh, then decided to get straight to the point:

"Although your methods are unbelievable, I think... you didn't come here specifically for a fallen monarch like me, did you?"

Weber said self-deprecatingly:

"Although I am nominally El-Melloi II, one of the twelve monarchs of the Clock Tower, I am actually just a poor laborer who works odd jobs to pay off debts."

"Aside from having some experience in teaching students who are not good enough, my own abilities and attainments in the demonic path are nothing to mention."

Sakayanagi Arisu shook her head:

"The Second Emperor need not be so self-deprecating."

"However, you guessed right, we didn't come here for you personally."

"I only came to see you incidentally."

"Speaking of which, as a participant in the Fourth Holy Grail War... you also know the truth about the fire that destroyed more than half of Fuyuki City, right?"

Upon hearing this, Weber frowned.

"Black mud?!"

Sakayanagi Arisu nodded in satisfaction: "Not bad."

"The Holy Grail War held in Snowfield City this time is the product of a secret collaboration between the Diorand family and the secret government of the United States."

"They attempted to use the Greater Grail fragments stolen from Fuyuki City, combined with the unique ley lines of Yukihara City, to perfectly replicate Fuyuki's Grail system."

"Their ultimate goal is not only to analyze and reproduce the legendary 'Third Magic,' but also to forcibly downgrade it into ordinary magic that can be used in large quantities!"

"This will break the monopoly of the old magic aristocracy and allow the United States to leapfrog in the status of the magic world."

"Demotion to the third method?!"

Upon hearing this crazy news...

Even Weber, now the monarch El-Melloi II, who had seen his share of storms, was shocked and almost dropped his cigar.

But it's not over yet.

Matsushita Chiaki, who had been keeping a watchful eye on things, stepped forward and added:

"Moreover, they used fragments of the Greater Grail, which resulted in a flawed and incomplete ritual system."

"To do this, they need to first have six 'pseudo-Servants' fight in Snowfield City, using the enormous magical power generated after their deaths to forcibly complete the incomplete Holy Grail system."

Matsushita Chiaki's tone was grave: "Once the system is complete, their own chosen Master will summon seven true 'True Servants' to determine the final winner. Therefore..."

"A total of thirteen Servants have descended upon Snowfield City this time!"

"...Thirteen heroic spirits?"

Weber clutched his stomach in pain, feeling as if he was about to collapse from a perforated stomach.

Despite his complaints, Weber's rationality quickly regained its footing.

"Sigh...that's hard to understand."

Weber rubbed his forehead hard. "Excessive ambition, unscrupulous methods, and extremely crude methods... but ironically, this plan actually has a chance of being realized."

"These American magicians are a bunch of crazy lunatics who give you a headache."

He didn't waste any more time lamenting about the issue.

Instead, she pulled the excited, gleaming Flat behind her and shielded her, then looked at Sakayanagi Arisu and the others with a serious expression:

"Since you have no interest in the so-called Holy Grail and the Third Law, then... what exactly are you looking for after taking such a great risk to come here!?"

"Why bother getting involved in these terrifying battles between Servants!?"

Faced with Weber's questioning, Sakayanagi Arisu remained calm.
