But how big can it be?

Kenneth felt that Lowe was underestimating him as a teacher. After all, even Barthez had to give him some face, given his current high status. What was the law and political science department under Barthez?

However, he read through the contents one by one with a sense of doubt.

When he saw the intelligence report that the Church's agents were investigating the village and had attempted to intercept Rowe on his return journey, but had all been dealt with by the prepared forces without suffering any harm, and that the information had been delivered to the Anglican Church, his expression became somewhat strange. Why was the Church involved? Those religious fanatics were indeed not to be trifled with.

Then, after reading about the history of the village and the resurrection ceremony, his eyelids twitched uncontrollably.

After all, the magic of resurrection is already a major taboo in the research of the Clock Tower. If it were to be done, it would be perfectly normal for the Legal Affairs Department to come knocking on the door to investigate.

but--

When he saw that the planner of the resurrection ritual was a witch from the Age of Gods more than a thousand years ago, and that the object of the resurrection was the knight queen he had met, Kenneth suddenly realized the truth.

'Spirit, soul, and...'

He glanced at Grey again, and probably guessed the answer.

It's the physical body!

In other words, a container...

Therefore, this girl is the vessel created by that village.

Now the answer to why she looks so much like Saber is revealed: it's not that she looks like Saber, but that her body was completely modified to fit the King of Knights' physique.

As for what happened later, after seeing Atlas's involvement and the ritual going berserk, causing the resurrection ritual to fail...

Upon seeing this, Kenneth abruptly closed the rather information-heavy document and then fell into deep thought.

—The Holy Church, the Atlas Institute, and things from the Age of Gods…

Things have indeed gotten quite serious.

It's understandable that the secrets involved shouldn't be known to the Department of Law and Politics.

Seemingly to reassure Rowe, Kenneth didn't hesitate, picked up the document that he hadn't even finished reading, and plunged it into the fireplace, burning it to ashes without a second thought.

"Teacher Kenneth..."

"Okay, let's leave it at that for now. Pretend I never saw the second document, and let's just resolve things as they are."

Kenneth wiped his hands and then answered casually.

She was clearly prepared to keep this a secret for Lowe, as a way of repaying his trust in her. In any case, the Legal Affairs Department couldn't possibly find out about this.

However, what he hadn't expected was that even with such explosive information, Rowe had hidden several even more shocking details—the silent reappearance of the Seven Weapons of the Atlas Institute, Morgan's reappearance, and the existence of Tsbia, the Dean of the Atlas Institute, and so on. These were all rather shocking pieces of information, potentially causing a major upheaval in the magic world, and he worried that Kenneth might find it difficult to accept, so he simply didn't tell him.

[Now all that's needed is to know is that Rowe Crowley, the next heir of the El-Melloi school, lifted the curse, and all these gravediggers followed him to live in London.] — Spreading this message is perfectly sufficient; let them imagine the rest.

Having understood everything, Kenneth decided not to delve any further. He stroked his chin, then glanced at Rowe in front of him, and said with a slight headache, "Alright, I roughly understand the situation now. So, what should I call this child? Is he also your student like Sakura? If so, then he's considered a member of our school. How's his talent? Since he was created as a vessel to resurrect King Arthur, he must have extraordinary abilities, right? And most importantly—"

"Does she have the potential to reach the Grand rank?"

Kenneth asked in a very serious tone.

More than other trivial matters, he now wanted to know what made Gray, who existed as King Arthur's vessel, so special. Was she a super genius like Sakura? Did she possess any talents he couldn't even imagine? Could she continue to contribute to his Grand Order plan in the future?

Luo Wei wasn't exaggerating when he said this.

This directly demonstrates that Gray's magical talent is extremely high. After all, her divine physique, formed through artificial alteration, far surpasses that of modern magicians. Combined with her extraordinary spiritual aptitude, she can see through things "invisible to humans." This makes her an expert in spiritual warfare. She is a natural-born prodigy in spirit summoning, and her age is perfect; it's never too late to nurture her.

more importantly--

"They're practically guaranteed a Grand Slam title..."

As if he had expected this, Luo Wei answered leisurely.

"Um?!"

As if a keyword had been triggered, Kenneth's previously serious demeanor underwent a complete 360-degree reversal, and his expression towards Grey instantly became kind and approachable. He also appeared extremely excited.

He forced out his gentlest smile and said, "Yes, I understand the situation. Grey, right? Nice to meet you. Let me introduce myself. My name is Kenneth El-Melloi Archibald. You can call me Grandmaster. From now on, you'll be staying at your teacher's house with Sakura and the others. Reines will take care of you. As for your identity, I'll send someone to handle that later."

"Thank you very much, Mr. Kenneth."

"If you really want to thank me, then hurry up and pass the rank exam, or marry into my family and serve them... Anyway, go back first."

Kenneth said irritably.

"You don't need to worry about things here. Just remember not to run around lately and stay home to prepare for your advancement exam. Right now, all the monarchs and nobles in the Clock Tower are focused on this place. They all want to see how you perform. As for other matters... I'll take care of them for you."

"Yes, I understand. I will fulfill my mission. Come on, Grey, let's go."

Holding Grey's hand, Rowe said goodbye to Kenneth and left through the door. Grey secretly breathed a sigh of relief, knowing she could finally get away from that strange old man.

"Um... Brother Luo Wei, where are we going?"

"Let's go home together."

Luo Wei lowered his head and answered with a smile.

"Ah."

"..."

After a long while, Kenneth watched Rowe and Grey's departing figures in the office before he finally snapped out of his surprise. He gently pinched his cheek and then cheered himself up.

"An exceptional spiritual physique... and the adaptability of her divine body, truly remarkable. Another genius, one in a century, has emerged. Putting aside the matter of the tomb-guarding village, let's first secure Gray's identity within our own school. Otherwise, if Euryphus finds out, that old man will definitely come to snatch her away. We must take precautions no matter what."

"Hmph, although he's just a troublemaking brat, he really has a unique talent when it comes to finding geniuses. Is it because geniuses attract each other?"

Kenneth stroked his chin, lost in thought.

Then, thoughts began to flow through my mind about my encounter with Luo Wei and everything that had happened since then, which gradually solidified my belief in this idea.

That's right, geniuses do attract geniuses.

He, a genius himself, attracted a prodigy like Luo Wei, and then Luo Wei brought together so many young geniuses.

However, more important to him now than these geniuses is...

"I need to come up with a reason to fool the Legal Affairs Department... This is really troublesome."

……

The streets of London are bustling with traffic.

Having lived in the mountains for many years, Grey had never seen a big city. Faced with skyscrapers and bustling streets, she undoubtedly felt apprehensive.

Fortunately, having Luo Wei by her side made her feel much more at ease.

After leaving the clock tower, Rowe took Gray to a phone booth on the street and called the butler, asking him to send a car to pick him up as soon as possible.

In any case, things are pretty much over now, and the arrangements for the gravedigger have been made extremely well. Since the aristocracy is willing to support them, they will inevitably form a powerful faction in the future, and he won't have to worry about their livelihood. Moreover, because of this convenience, they can now directly go to the prestigious universities that ordinary magicians dream of entering to study and seek development. As for what the future holds? That's up to them.

I have truly done everything I could, and I have fulfilled my promise.

If any problems arise, the place is only a two-hour drive from my home; I can just come directly there. Out of respect for Bersack and Grey, Rowe will definitely try his best to help.

Grey was very grateful for this.

Then, after a phone call from Luo Wei, the butler, who had been eagerly awaiting the return of the head of the household, immediately arranged for a car to come and pick him up.

However, the person in charge of welcoming us this time was a little unexpected.

Beep beep—!

The sound of car horns rang in his ears. Looking at the luxury car parked in front of him, and then at the dashing red-haired woman sitting in the driver's seat with a cigarette dangling from her lips, who was parked on the side of the road and raising her eyebrows at him, Luo Wei's expression gradually became a little strange.

"What are you doing here, Senior Orange?"

He frowned slightly and asked.

In response, Aozaki Touko simply removed the half-smoked cigarette from her mouth, lightly flicked the ash into the ashtray, and then casually opened the car door and stepped out with an air of nonchalance.

"Huh? You're asking me why I'm here? Didn't you hire me? But you seem to be having a lot of free time..."

Bathed in sunlight, Aozaki Touko's long red hair shone like flames.

Her long, bright red hair was tied in a ponytail, and she was still wearing the same bright yellow trench coat and white women's shirt underneath. Combined with her bright hair color, the outfit was simple yet exuded a fiery passion.

"Unlike you, who runs around everywhere, I only went to pick up someone, and I encountered quite a lot of trouble, but I did gain something."

Luo Wei shook his head and calmly answered her question.

"Don't say that. I was just being chased all over the world by the Bloodhounds from the Forensic Science Department. But compared to what I'm doing..."

Then Aozaki Touko smiled, put her arm around Lo Wei's shoulder, and said slowly. She stared intently into Lo Wei's eyes, glanced at Gray behind him, and asked with a smile.

"Hey, junior Luo Wei, is this little girl your secret daughter with Saber?"

"Come on, call me 'sister' and let me hear it."

"Eh...Eh?!"

Upon hearing this, Grey was somewhat taken aback by what the other person said.

"Senior Orange..."

Similarly, in an instant, the expression on Luo Wei's face also began to involuntarily distort.

Goodnight, Makka Pakka...

Chapter 126 A Gentle Night

Nighttime, on a straight road in the suburbs of London.

A sleek black sports car was parked on the side of the road. Aozaki Touko, sitting in the driver's seat, leaned back and turned to look at Lovi and Gray sitting in the back seat.
