Even though the Second Male Path can grant unparalleled power, the price is simply too terrifying.
"Is Fujimaru-nii leaving today?"
Sesshouin Kiara also recovered from her meditative state. Fujimaru Kyoya usually stayed here for a long time, but today he was leaving very early.
"I promised to take my sister out to eat today, so I'll take my leave now."
This isn't a lie; perhaps influenced by herself, Fujimaru Ritsuka also has a particular fondness for Mapo Tofu Ramen.
Now, only a few days later, I want to go out for a meal again.
"Okay, then come again next time."
Playing? Can these even be considered playing?
Fujimaru Kyoya recalled that he had been chatting with Sesshouin Kiara about Buddhism these past few days, treating her like a Buddhist encyclopedia. But did Sesshouin Kiara just think it was a game?
Who exactly is this guy?
Fujimaru Kyoya recalled that he had triggered the simulator simply by making a promise with Sesshouin Kiara, which clearly showed that this little girl was no ordinary person.
Why not use the power of destiny to take a look?
Fujimaru Kyoya used his Destiny Insight to peek into Sesshouin Kiara's future, as he was also very curious about the background of this person who could make the simulator take him so seriously.
universe?
Looking around, Fujimaru Kyoya felt as if he were in space. Could it be that Sesshouin Mirai became an astronaut?
No, it's above this.
Fujimaru Kyoya looked up and saw a huge woman's figure staring at him with an indescribable mockery in her eyes.
"It's not gentlemanly to peep at ladies."
The horned woman crushed Fujimaru Kyoya's figure with a backhand and continued to lie in the vast sea of stars. This was just a small ripple in her long life.
"Fujimaru-nii, what's wrong?"
Sesshouin Kiara looked at Fujimaru Kyouya, whose face had turned pale, and wondered what had happened.
"It's nothing, I'm just not feeling well."
After Fujimaru Kyoya left Ryudouji Temple, is there something wrong with the feng shui of Fuyuki City? What kind of monsters are they?
Chapter 115 The Xinhai War 2/102
"Mapo tofu ramen, your emperor has returned."
At the same time and place, Fujimaru Kyoya brought his sister to the Kouzu Banquet Hall Taishan. The waitresses were clearly used to Fujimaru Kyoya's easily startled sister.
"I hope we won't run into troublesome people like the Aozaki sisters this time."
Fujimaru Kyoya looked around and, although he didn't see the Aozaki sisters, he did catch sight of another eye-catching figure.
A seemingly respectable identity and a beautiful woman in a suit.
"Father Mapo, are you about to start a second spring in your life?"
Fujimaru Kyoya naturally had some understanding of his "arch-rival".
Kirei Kotomine, nicknamed Father Mapo, is a master of Bajiquan. He was previously married but his wife died, and he has a daughter who is studying in another city. He is the senior apprentice of Rin Tohsaka, the young lady of the Tohsaka family, and helped manage the Tohsaka family's assets before Rin came of age.
However, I heard that this guy really has no talent for business. The Tohsaka family's originally substantial fortune has been almost entirely squandered by this spendthrift over the years.
As a result, Rin Tohsaka now lives off the patent fees left by her father. Although this money is enough for her to live on, it's not enough to cover her training in Gem Magic.
"It's just work. By the way, Rin didn't seem to tell you about the Holy Grail War, did she?"
As the Holy Grail War draws near, more and more Masters are heading to Fuyuki City, and it is Kirei Kotomine's job, as the overseer in name, to verify the identities of these people.
But now he suddenly thought of something interesting.
It might be interesting to replicate the events that happened to Tokiomi Tohsaka in Rin Tohsaka's life.
"The Holy Grail War?"
Fujimaru Kyoya was sitting right next to Father Kirei, and he really knew nothing about the Holy Grail War.
"For example, the person next to me is Bazett Fraga Macremis, the executor designated by the Mage Association for sealing."
Designated seal?
Although Fujimaru Kyoya was still a novice in magic, after the Aozaki sisters incident, Rin Tohsaka gave him a crash course in magic.
The sealing designation is a way for the Mage Association to protect certain magic tricks that it considers to be very "precious".
They believed that these people possessed not only great potential in magic but were also extremely rare, so in order to preserve them... let's put them in formalin.
They claim to protect it, but in reality, it's just turned into a specimen.
They're just a bunch of executioners.
Fujimaru Kyoya immediately pulled his sister away to avoid being targeted by this guy. After all, magicians are creatures who can be brothers with you one second and stab you in the back the next.
What is the Holy Grail War?
"You really don't know? Rin is such a stubborn person. I guess she doesn't want to involve you in such a dangerous situation."
Kirei Kotomine's mischievous nature begins to awaken.
What he just said was absolutely right. Rin Tohsaka didn't want Kyoya Fujimaru, who had only recently entered the world of magic, to get involved. This was for Kyoya Fujimaru's safety, and also because she wanted to fulfill the Tohsaka family's long-cherished wish alone.
Kirei Kotomine was fully aware of these matters. Originally, Rin Tohsaka would have used a reason to send Kyoya Fujimaru away, but Kirei's intervention clearly intended to create discord between the master and disciple.
"Father Kotomine, is it alright to tell others about the Holy Grail War?"
Bazett was a bit taken aback. In her opinion, Kirei Kotomine used to be efficient and decisive, but she wondered what had happened over the years that had made him so fussy and indecisive.
"It's alright. He was originally an apprentice of the Tohsaka family, so he's qualified to know about the Holy Grail."
Kirei Kotomine then recounted the Holy Grail War.
In short, it's about a group of magicians summoning their Pokémon and then starting a free-for-all battle royale. The winner gets to become a Pokémon Master... cough cough, and get a chance to make a wish on the Holy Grail.
"According to you, the Holy Grail War is supposed to happen once every sixty years? The time hasn't come yet."
"The last Holy Grail War did not determine a victor. Saber's Master, Kiritsugu Emiya, destroyed the Holy Grail, which not only caused the great fire but also brought this Holy Grail War forward."
Emiya?
Fujimaru Kyoya immediately thought of his good friend Emiya Shirou. In addition, the fire ten years ago had almost turned his friend into a righteous but irrational person. He did not think that the Emiya surname was a coincidence.
Is Shirou a magician too?
Fujimaru Kyoya suddenly felt that his school was truly a place where hidden talents abounded: a yakuza heiress, the second young master of the town's number one Buddhist temple, two heirs of magic families, a teacher who looked like an assassin, and himself, a transmigrator.
What the hell are these monsters and demons?
Fujimaru Kyoya touched the sword scabbard on his back, where the holy sword lay. He dared not keep such a valuable item at home; he had to carry it with him at all times.
At this moment, Fujimaru Kyoya couldn't help but miss the ubiquitous spatial rings in online novels, wondering why he didn't have such a good thing.
"But does such a thing really exist? An all-powerful wish-granting machine, that can already be called a 'miracle'."
Fujimaru Kyoya is no longer someone who knows nothing about magic. The existence of an all-powerful wish-granting machine is a miracle in itself. In the mystical world, apart from the church calling magic a miracle, the so-called miracle only represents one thing—magic.
"The third law is the materialization of the soul."
Bazett provided the answer: she originally had no interest in this Holy Grail War. If Kirei Kotomine hadn't recommended her, she wouldn't have bothered investigating it, let alone knowing that magic was involved.
Magic is a matter of great importance, and Bazett herself is a magician, so she knows the habits of magicians very well. If possible, she doesn't want magic to fall into the hands of dangerous people.
"The Einzbern family provided the foundation, the Tohsaka family provided the ley lines, and the Machiavellian family provided the Command Seals technology. The three families, each with their own purposes, came together to form the Holy Grail War. Your master was right not to let you participate. Ordinary mages are no match for Servants."
Bazett issued a warning, and by this time, the marks of Command Seals had already appeared on her body. If the Holy Grail War started and the magician Fujimaru Kyoya did not leave, then the two sides would become enemies.
With Bazett's physical skills, combined with her combat experience as an Executor, and the Noble Phantasm Reverse Light Sword inherited from her family, she is confident that she can fight against Servants for a short time and even win by surprise.
Not to mention that he could easily defeat an ordinary magician.
"I see."
Fujimaru Kyoya finally understood the source of this sense of crisis: it was definitely the Holy Grail War.
Chapter 116 Rin Tohsaka's Future
"That's how it is. Take your sister and leave, otherwise, once the Servants start fighting, I won't be able to take care of you."
After meeting with Kirei Kotomine, Fujimaru Kyouya went to find Rin Tohsaka to confirm the situation. Rin Tohsaka realized that she could no longer hide the truth, so she stopped trying to conceal it.
Is it dangerous?
"Of course it's dangerous. Don't you know about the Fuyuki fire ten years ago?"
Aren't you afraid?
Although Fujimaru Kyoya knew that Rin Tohsaka was fearless, he didn't expect her to be so at ease in the face of death, which was quite unexpected.
"This is the Tohsaka family's long-cherished wish."
Rin Tohsaka cannot withdraw. The Holy Grail War involves the Tohsaka family's method of reaching the Root, and she cannot let her ancestors' long-cherished wish end here.
"But isn't there only one Tohsaka in your generation? If you die, won't the Tohsaka family's magic line end? Or are you going to pass on the Magic Crest to me, an outsider?"
"Who would give you a magic seal?"
Rin Tohsaka stepped on Kyoya Fujimaru's instep. While it's understandable for a master to pass on a magic crest to his apprentice when the master has no children, it requires a certain level of intimacy, even treating the other person like family.
Family? That Fujimaru kid?
Rin Tohsaka's face flushed even more at the thought, and she pressed down harder with her feet.
"The Tohsaka family line will never end. You know Sakura, right? She's Shinji's sister."
"Her? I vaguely remember her."
Fujimaru Kyoya fumbled through his memories and finally remembered the timid girl in some corner. However, she had been appearing at Emiya's house more often these days and had gradually become more energetic.
“She is my younger sister. Her original name was Tohsaka Sakura. She was adopted into the Matou family to inherit the Matou family’s magic that is about to be lost.”
This secret between Tohsaka and Matou shouldn't have been told to Fujimaru Kyouya, but Tohsaka Rin inexplicably revealed it anyway.
At this moment, Rin Tohsaka really hoped that Kyoya Fujimaru would leave this place of trouble as soon as possible.
