She pursed her pale cherry-colored lips and said thoughtfully:

"Mr. Ninja, this is just like how you magicians, in order to fulfill your so-called 'reach the source' long-cherished wish, even though you know that there are many difficulties along the way, and that you may even be shattered to pieces, you must still follow one after another to complete the task passed down through generations."

"We also have an ultimate goal that we must face."

"In order to achieve that goal, we naturally need to make some necessary efforts to gather resources and improve ourselves."

"Incidentally, it's also because you, Mr. Second, are a rare breath of fresh air in this corrupt world of magic."

"Moreover, you are intelligent and capable of rational communication, which is why we are considering seeking a win-win cooperation with you."

"after all......"

Sakayanagi Arisu paused deliberately, her tone carrying a deeper meaning:

"If we don't make some preparations soon, your fragile worldline will probably be 'constricted' soon."

“…What do you mean?” Weber took a big puff of his cigar, his brows furrowing into a deep frown.

Sakayanagi Arisu did not immediately respond to the other party's question.

Having mastered the art of manipulating people's hearts, she naturally understood the principle of fishing: sometimes you have to reel in the fish, sometimes you have to let it go.

It's enough to sow the seeds of panic.

Now, it's time to cast the bait.

She naturally changed the subject, pointing the finger at the gold-plated man who had lured the other party out.

"Speaking of which... Mr. Ninja, you must know magic tricks like 'clairvoyance' or remote observation, right?"

"If nothing unexpected happens, Heracles, the Avenger corrupted by the black mud, should already be locked in combat with Gilgamesh, the King of Heroes..."

"To be honest, if the corrupted Hercules were so easily eliminated and his soul were absorbed back into the Holy Grail, it wouldn't be a good thing for us."

"After all, some of the key items we're looking for are inside the Holy Grail..."

The girl tilted her head slightly, looked at Weber whose expression was constantly changing, and said with a smile:

“Then, Mr. Second.”

"What do you think... should we go help Hercules and solve Gilgamesh's problem?"

"If I remember correctly, you two have a rather 'deep' past entanglement."

"This is a good opportunity for revenge."

Upon hearing this, Weber's lips twitched slightly.

He sighed deeply again, as if surrendering to fate:

"...Revenge is out of the question, I haven't lived enough yet."

"Come with me to find Tohsaka."

"Although she always makes some basic mistakes at crucial moments, she is not bad at setting up the stage and performing magic tricks in normal times."

Weber rubbed his temples, then turned and led the way:

"She should have already set up a magical surveillance network on the ley lines..."

"Since you have investigated my past so thoroughly, you must know just how mediocre my magical talent really is."

"Don't make me embarrass myself by showing off in this kind of high-precision long-distance observation."

......

Just as Waver reluctantly contacted Rin Tohsaka and led Arisu Sakayanagi and her entourage to Rin's temporary magic workshop, Waver was forced to make contact with her.

Far out in the wilderness on the outskirts of Xueyuan City.

Because Hercules had repeatedly and mercilessly aimed his arrows at his Master, Tiny, who was only ten years old, two or three times in a row.

This despicable act undoubtedly enraged the ever-proud Hero King.

Gilgamesh had no intention of standing still and engaging in a ranged battle. Instead, he summoned the golden ark of light, Vimana, directly from the Gate of Babylon.

Standing on the throne, he led Tini toward Alcides' location.

And as a great Greek hero who had undergone twelve trials.

Even after being stripped of his divinity by the black mud, Alcides still had absolute confidence in his own strength.

He didn't even need to set any traps in advance, because he firmly believed that in the face of absolute force, any petty theft was ineffective against Gilgamesh, and vice versa.

As Vimana drew near, Alcides once again drew his great bow and aimed an arrow at Tini.

"call out--!"

The arrow, as swift as lightning, pierced the sky.

But just before it hit, the golden chain stopped the arrow, which was powerful enough to pierce a mountain, and did not cause any real damage to Tini.

With the blessing of a high-level True Name Insight Noble Phantasm like [Omniscient and Omnipotent Star].

Gilgamesh merely glanced down at him and instantly saw through the disguise tainted by black mud on Alcides' body, recognizing his true nature as the greatest hero of Greece.

"What a disgusting attitude."
