"The order is wrong," Yoshikage Kira muttered to himself.

"What order?"

"Summoning order".

Fiore was confused, her eyes filled with bewilderment.

Yoshikage Kira did not continue to explain, because it was indeed somewhat difficult to understand.

He was supposed to stay in Camelot's time until the establishment of the Knights of the Round Table, or even until the Hill of Camran.

He will then be summoned to the modern era, perhaps as an inner member of the Knights of the Round Table.

He was able to find his wife and daughter only because he was summoned to the modern era.

But the actual order is different.

He had just given the Round Table and Guinevere to Artoria when he woke up back in the modern world.

He had already taken the final step and reunited with his wife.

But at this moment, she was summoned by Fiore using fragments of the Round Table.

If nothing unexpected happens, he will need to return to Camelot in the future to continue his unfinished destiny.

This completely reversed order makes the summoning seem incongruous.

But the question is, why?

Why summon him using the Holy Grail? And who created the Holy Grail?

Yoshikage Kira was very curious, but he felt the answer shouldn't be too hard to find.

"Fiore".

Yoshikage Kira suddenly spoke.

"Ah, I'm here."

"Let me introduce the other Masters."

"Hmm~"

Fiore really wanted to ask why, since it would have been more appropriate to explain what happened between the Kings rather than only now remembering to learn about the other Masters and Servants. However, the girl skillfully suppressed her curiosity, thought for a moment, and then spoke:

"Then let's start with Uncle."

"Daniel Preston Yggdrasil, the young man you see next to the throne. Although he looks young, he has actually lived for a hundred years. Seated on the throne is his Servant, Vlad III, a Lancer, who was also the first Servant to be summoned."

"Caster is Avisbronn, whose full name is Solomon Ibn Qabirull. He was an 11th-century philosopher and poet, and the founder of Kabbalah magic. His Master is Roger Freyne Yggdrasil, whom you should have seen in the Royal Court. He was the blond boy who was only 13 years old. He has an outstanding talent for puppetry."

"Berserker's Master, who is also my younger brother, Corles Fulvigia, is the one who just delivered the relic. He uses summoning magic."

"Rider's Master is Sereneka Escour Thousand Trees, a woman with long gray hair who uses black magic."

“Saber’s Master is Gorde Mujik Yggdrasil, who is my uncle and uses alchemy.”

"Finally, there's Assassin's Master, Hyoma Sagara, who uses a combination of Japanese and Western magic to ensure the safety of buildings or protect humanity at the cost of human lives. For certain reasons, his Servant summoning ritual was performed in Japan."

Fiore checked again to make sure there were no oversights, and then summarized:

"Yes, that's about it."

She looked up at Yoshikage Kira, wondering what her servant would do after learning this information.

As she expected, Yoshikage Kira wore a thoughtful expression, but his first words made Fiore tense up:

"So, the least useful person among these people is Serenekae, right?"

Fiore understood his subtext and quickly advised:

"Sereneka is our ally!"

"The Holy Grail War only needs Servants; Masters are not the key."

"But, but..."

Fiore's face flushed red, and she almost couldn't hold back. Who would sacrifice an ally at the start of a Holy Grail War?

"Or do you want to start with your younger brother? Indeed, as a magician, your brother is undoubtedly the worst. If you want to start with him, I have no objection."

"No!" Fiore's expression grew increasingly panicked as she hurriedly grabbed Kira Yoshikage's arm, her eyes even pleading. "No, please don't harm Koles!"

Kira Yoshikage gazed at her silently and said softly:

“I take back what I said earlier. Your talent may be outstanding. But as a magician, you are the most unqualified, even inferior to your younger brother.”

"I…"

Fiore's lips were slightly parted, and her eyes were somewhat dim.

"But this is not a bad thing."

Kira Yoshikage knelt down in front of her, took the girl's soft hand in his, and whispered, "So, Master, make a choice. Sereneke, or Koles?"

Fiore felt somewhat comforted, but still couldn't help asking:

"Isn't there a third option?"

Yoshikage Kira thought for a moment, then nodded slightly:

"That's fine too. So, who do you want to choose: Gold or Danic?"

……

Fiore didn't know what to say, and finally had to compromise, whispering, "Then, Serenekay."

Honestly.

She disliked almost all the magicians in her family.

There's no need to say more about the old monster Danic, and Uncle Gold is far too arrogant.

But if you were to ask who she hates the most, Sereneka would be at the top of the list.

Despite her striking appearance and voluptuous figure, anyone with even a slight understanding of black magic would not believe it.

Black magic, by its very nature, requires the user to dismember a living sacrifice without hesitation. Whether it be a young wild animal, a docile beast, a human infant, a kind human, an elderly person, or a pregnant woman, there will be no mercy.

Sereneka is undoubtedly an excellent dark magician. When offering human sacrifices, she can control her rationality with an iron will. She neither rejoices in harm nor enjoys torture, nor is she swayed by the sacrifice's pleas. She simply and calmly and skillfully completes all the cruel rituals.

Because any emotion is a very dangerous element for a black magician.

But no one can suppress their emotions forever; Sereneka, as a dark magician, can.

But once she sheds her identity as a dark magician, Serenekae will completely indulge her excessive desires.

When she relinquished her identity as a dark magician, she would choose a man to spend the night with almost every day, but none of them survived to the next day.

Just as Yoshikage Kira said.

Fiore is unqualified as a magician.

Although she was very talented, she was not ruthless enough.

Among magicians, black magic is not much different from other forms of magic; they are merely means to achieve a goal. No matter how cruel the means, they are necessary sacrifices.

Even in other magic tricks, sacrificing hundreds or thousands of lives for experiments is commonplace.

Therefore, they will not discriminate against Sereneka's use of black magic, nor will they be hostile towards her because of it.

But Fiore is different.

She usually pretends to be a magician and uses feigned coldness to deal with other people's suspicions.

But she remains kind at heart and will mourn for those gods who have tragically perished.

and so.

Her guilt wouldn't have been so intense if she had killed Serenika instead of someone else.

In the castle corridor, Kira Yoshikage, pushing a wheelchair, unexpectedly encounters Corles, who is accompanied by his servant.

"Sister, where are you going?" Koles asked with some surprise.

“I’ll show Archer around the castle.” Fiore tried her best to control her emotions, offering a faint smile as she greeted her younger brother. “Are you doing the same?”

"Ah."

Koles glanced at the girl in the white wedding dress behind him and nodded slightly. "Frankenstein, she seems very curious about the castle. I'll show her around."

"Frankenstein, is that her real name?" Fiore asked, somewhat surprised.

"Um.

Is it really okay to make this public like this?

Koles' tone was somewhat helpless:

"Actually, there's no real need to keep it a secret. The Holy Grail War is bound to involve fighting, right? And fighting will inevitably reveal her true name. Besides, doesn't my sister know about the relic I used to summon her?"

Fiore nodded slightly.

The relic used by Correspondent was Frankenstein's blueprint, which Correspondent had bought from a friend of Fiore.

It's not hard to guess what kind of heroic spirit can be summoned using this design.

Saying goodbye to her younger brother, Fiore whispered:

"Isn't Koles even more naive than I am?"

Kira Yoshikage was slightly taken aback, and then realized that she was protesting, protesting his previous evaluation of her—that as a magician, she was not even as good as her own brother.

But now Fiore is trying to show through her actions that she is more qualified than her brother—at least she did not reveal the Servant's true name like her brother did, nor did she reveal his class, but instead referred to him as Archer.

I don't think so.

Kira Yoshikage's answer still surprised Fiore: "If the Holy Grail War goes to the end and only you and Corresponds are left, and you are destined to fight each other, who do you think will survive without relying on Servants?"

“...I am better than Koles, I will definitely win.”

Her talent far surpasses that of Koles; if a battle were to break out, she would undoubtedly kill Koles.

"No, it's Koles."

Yoshikage Kira shook his head. "Because you will definitely not be able to do it, but although he can't bear to hurt his own sister, he will still kill you decisively."

"Why?" Fiore was somewhat unconvinced. Why should they assume she wouldn't be able to do it? Was she that naive?
