Something's wrong with how I'm watching anime.

"My name is Fujimura Taiga. Is there anything wrong with this name?"

Kazama fell silent again.

He never expected that the girl that Ryunosuke Uryuu casually captured tonight would actually be an important supporting character in the main story of "Fate/stay night".

Kazama's gaze returned to the girl's face.

That damn Takeuchi face made him not recognize Fujimura Taiga for a moment. Of course, this was also partly because the young Fujimura Taiga did not appear in the Fate/Zero arc.

Kazama's gaze made Fujimura Taiga instinctively struggle to back away, leaning against the pillar behind him.

"What do you want to do? I'm warning you..."

"It's nothing..." Kazama suddenly smiled, his tone becoming gentle.

The accident created by Ryunosuke Uryu was a great opportunity for Kazama.

The girl in front of me is Lucky Ex!

For every unlucky spearman with the "Luck E" trait, there is an equal amount of good fortune for someone with the "Luck EX" trait.

"I just want to ask you for a favor... let me bask in your good luck."

Chapter 105 Judging by Looks

If it were Fujimura Taiga, then his quirky, goofy personality and unusual thought process would be quite reasonable.

In terms of character design, Taiga Fujimura's role is essentially that of a comedic character.

If Kazama remembers correctly, besides the main Fate series, there are also some strange side stories centered around Taiga Fujimura.

In this side story, Fujimura Taiga truly and easily fulfilled Emiya Kiritsugu's tragic wish to save the world, a wish that he could not fulfill.

Given the same background and setting, will stories from different timelines be connected?

This is also a question that Kazama has been pondering.

It's important to know that in Kazama's watchlist, "Fate/Zero" and "Fate/stay night" are established as two different pillars.

These side stories are most likely set in parallel universes.

This is the answer Kazama guessed.

After all, the Type-Moon universe has an orthodox parallel multiverse setting.

One of the highest representatives of extraordinary power in this world, the ability of the Second Magic also proves this point.

I am still in the main storyline world of Fate/Zero.

Compared to other exaggerated and outrageous subplots, there's at least no need to worry too much about their logic and stability.

Taiga Fujimura... in some ways, is one of the strongest members of Type-Moon.

The question is: who would win if the future Taiga Fujimura and Souichirou Kuzuki fought?

Under normal circumstances, even at the fifth dan level in Kendo, Fujimura Taiga, known as the Tiger of Fuyuki, would be no match for Soichiro, who had mastered the ancient killing techniques.

But in fact, the tiger's chances of winning are not low, because under that abnormally strong luck, Soichiro might suddenly trip and fall.

"Speaking of which... what would happen if I harbored ill intentions towards Fujimura Taiga and wanted to kill her?"

Kazama walked out of the abandoned warehouse, thinking to himself.

Exaggerated good fortune, to some extent, falls into the category of 'cause and effect'.

The law of causality is one of the most advanced supernatural powers.

Ryunosuke Uryu suffered because he harbored ill intentions towards the lucky Taiga Fujimura.

But his suffering is clearly the result of Kazama's subjective connection to the story.

Doesn't this mean that the power of cause and effect is enough to interfere with supernatural abilities and influence higher-dimensional worlds?

Thinking hard.

However, Kazama shook his head and quickly stopped thinking about the question.

Unfounded skepticism only traps one in a cage of anxiety and serves no other purpose.

At least, given our limited understanding of extraordinary powers, there's no need to ponder such questions.

Moreover, the tiger's good fortune doesn't necessarily have to be linked to cause and effect.

Inhibitory force.

The unique power that exists in the Type-Moon world.

As Gaia consciousness and human pan-consciousness, they possess the ability to almost 'arrange fate' within their own territory.

To exert a mysterious influence, causing all things to develop in a direction that is favorable to oneself.

If Fujimura Taiga is someone favored by the Counter Force, it's not impossible for him to possess great luck.

If that's the case...

Kazama looked up at the star-filled night sky.

Have I been targeted by the inhibitory force?

Even if we don't consider that the two major inhibitory forces possess intelligence and subjective consciousness, at the very least, the instinct to react is absolutely present.

If the two restraining forces detect an event or individual that may threaten the human race or the planet, they will do everything in their power to stop it and eliminate the threat.

Am I, a visitor from another world, a threat?

Who knows, I might get hit and killed by a dump truck as soon as I step out of the warehouse?

...............

Kazama's worries did not come true.

As he left the remote industrial area, no car suddenly darted out and hit him, nor was he struck by lightning.

In fact, back in the bustling neighborhood, everything was normal, and nothing had happened.

Kazama breathed a sigh of relief.

He secretly slipped back 'home'.

This is the home of the body belonging to Ryunosuke Uryu.

It was late at night, and the parents of the house's owners, Ryunosuke Uryu, had already gone to bed.

The sound of Kazama opening the door did not disturb the two who were fast asleep.

Kazama walked straight to the abandoned warehouse in the backyard, where there were things that should have been left for Uryu Ryunosuke, but which Kazama had hidden in the real world using his interference ability.

Kazama went to the corner and moved away the surface junk, revealing a book.

It was an ancient book that was almost completely decayed. The thin, thread-bound book was riddled with holes from worms; it was not a printed book but a private manuscript.

The last page of the book says Keio 9, which means that the book was written more than a hundred years ago during the end of the Tokugawa period.

The text written in the book was Chinese that he was familiar with... or rather, traditional Chinese characters.

To the average person, the book's finely handwritten text appears to be absurd and nonsensical ramblings about sorcery and other such things.

But Kazama knew perfectly well that this was an orthodox book of magic.

While not as magical or powerful as the mystical books in the Dantalian Bookshelf world, they do indeed contain knowledge about the Mystic Books.

That was knowledge called the 'Holy Grail War', which detailed many details and steps, such as the drawing of the summoning magic circle, the composition of the ritual, and the incantation.

well.

Kazama nodded in satisfaction.

With this book in hand, he could smoothly take the first step in doing what he wanted to do and participating in this feast that should have only existed in his imagination.

Kazama carefully put the ancient book away and left Amuse's house.

The head of the Yusheng family knew that their son was a prodigal son, and they did not deliberately ask to know what Yusheng Ryunosuke was doing or where he was going.

This near-blank interpersonal relationship gives Kazama ample freedom to act.

Aside from the numerous misdeeds left behind by Ryunosuke Uryuu, this borrowed body, capable of truly moving freely in this fantastical real world, is practically perfect.

Of course, Kazama doesn't need to worry about those with bad records for the time being.

While Ryunosuke Uryu was a madman and a pervert, he was also sufficiently careful, leaving virtually no evidence to support his actions. Otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to live such a carefree and happy life for five whole years.

The next step is to find a spiritual vein site for the ritual and to prepare the materials for constructing the magic array.

Then comes the most important part: preparing the 'Relics' for summoning a specific Servant.

The first two are quite simple, but the difficulty lies in the relics of the latter.

Because it was a case of borrowing someone else's resources to achieve something, even though Kazama had the will, he was completely unprepared when he arrived here.

If you don't have artifacts, you can only summon them based on your affinity.

Simply put, it's all about looks.

Chapter 106 Paracelsus

After obtaining the magical text containing the ritual for summoning Heroic Spirits from the Yusheng family, Kazama returned to the abandoned warehouse the way he came.

The next day, he led Fujimura Taiga to a new position.

Fujimura Taiga's previous threats were not without reason.

The Fujimura-gumi, a local yakuza organization, wields considerable influence in Fuyuki City, and the makeshift sacrificial site that Ryunosuke Uryu found isn't exactly safe. If they find them, things will get complicated.

After all, apart from the knowledge in his head, he is now just an ordinary person.

In terms of combat ability, let alone the thugs of the Fujimura group, she probably couldn't even beat Fujimura Taiga, a young girl. You know, Tiger's level of swordsmanship is quite good. She even earned the title of 'Tiger of Fuyuki' in the future. Even though she is young now, she still has considerable fighting power.

Ryunosuke Uryuu only managed to take down Taiga Fujimura through a sneak attack. If this murderer had faced off against Taiga Fujimura head-on, it's uncertain who would have been caught.

Besides safety reasons, the relocation was also to fulfill the conditions of the summoning site, 'Land of Spirit Veins'.

The magic circles in the Type-Moon world are basically built on the branch veins of the Great Source.

Fuyuki City has a decent spiritual vein. Although this spiritual vein, managed by the Tohsaka family, is not as good as that of the Aozaki family in the neighboring Misaki City, it is still one of the best in the Far East.
