In Type-Moon, it all starts with adopting Sakura.

Even so, Rowe was right. It would be difficult for Kingu alone to attract Tiamat. Rowe had a much greater chance of success, so they had no choice but to make this decision.

"..."

Finally, amidst the silent exchange of glances, Gilgamesh nodded slightly, ultimately entrusting the task to Lovi.

Luo Wei nodded in agreement to everyone's expectations, and then left on his own initiative, saying that he needed to make some preparations for the next operation.

After Loewe took over the reins.

He then demanded the right to use the Royal Treasury from Gilgamesh, and then had Siduri approve a piece of land for him in Uruk, so that he could make some necessary preparations.

At this moment, Gilgamesh naturally did not hesitate at all, and directly threw the key to the treasure vault to Lovi, telling him to take whatever he needed.

Siduri even gave the ley line node of Uruk, which was Ishtar's last temple, to Lovi for use. Although Ishtar was very angry to hear that her last temple had been given away, she was forced to give up her objections after being hung on the city wall by Kingu for several hours.

Inside the temple, Siduri bowed to Lovi and said, "Everything you requested is ready. This is the key to the King's treasury; you may use it at will."

“I understand, Siduri.” Rowe nodded and said, “Thank you for your hard work.”

“It’s alright, please don’t be so polite. I should be thanking you, since you are doing this to defend Uruk and Sumerian civilization.” Siduri shook her head. “Then I won’t bother you any longer.”

After saying that, Siduri turned and left.

Luo Wei rubbed his hands, then looked at Jingu standing to the side and asked, "What are you still doing here?"

"..."

Jingu: "Although I understand your intentions, you have taken too much of a risk this time. This is a huge gamble, putting everything on your shoulders. While I can understand your actions, I cannot truly condone them."

"And..." Jingu paused abruptly, then asked, "Human, do you still really have hope for that old plan..."

Before Jingu could finish speaking, Luo Wei had already pulled out a mountain of materials from the King's Treasury. The clanging of metal drowned out her voice, causing Jingu to silently swallow her words.

"What do you say?"

Instead of answering her question, Lowe asked a question in return.

"..."

Jingu remained silent for a moment, then shook his head and sighed, "Then I have no choice but to believe you... Human, don't let me down."

After saying that, Jingu turned and left.

After seeing him leave, Luo Wei slowly stood up and quietly turned on the communication device on the table. When Dr. Roman saw him, he exclaimed in surprise.

"Mr. Lowe...were you looking for me?"

"Yes, I need your help with something, Roman."

Upon hearing this, Roman was taken aback, then nodded repeatedly and said in a formal tone: "Please tell me, as long as it is something I can help with, I will do my best."

"Okay, I'm relieved to hear that."

Upon hearing Roman's assurance, Luo Wei nodded. He didn't say anything more or explain his plan. Instead, he slowly raised his palm and gently opened it. Soon, Roman saw the golden ring floating in his hand.

"So tell me the incantations for summoning, commanding, and primordial of the seventy-two demon gods. I need their help next."

"And I also prepared these."

At this point, Luo Wei waved his hand lightly, and the ground in front of him was immediately covered with many golden cups.

"So, it's time to really go all in! Let's bet everything! You must help me fulfill my wish and bring Tiamat here, Holy Grail."

Loew raised the golden cup high and then made a wish upon the Holy Grail in his hand.

Chapter 294 Bring Up My Cannon

"The Holy Grail...?"

Looking at the room filled with golden cups and goblets, Dr. Roman, who was communicating with Rowe via communication device, showed an extremely surprised expression.

"Holy Grail, you must help me convey this feeling to her..."

Loew rubbed the Holy Grail in his hand and then made a wish.

Faced with Rowe holding the Holy Grail, Dr. Roman was dumbfounded. "You, this is... what are you planning to do?"

"Is there even a question? Of course, we'll make a wish on the Holy Grail. How can we guarantee Tiamat will be attracted if we don't make some preparations?"

Luo Wei asked casually in return.

Upon hearing this, Roman, looking at the cup radiating golden light in his hand, broke out in a cold sweat on the other side of the screen and couldn't help but ask, "You didn't actually intend to use the Holy Grail from the beginning, did you?"

"Isn't this obvious? After all, if it's just my divinity, then it's still lacking something to successfully attract Tiamat. But if I use the Holy Grail specialization and make a prayer, I'm sure I can succeed."

Lovi spoke up naturally, "No matter how powerful Tiamat is, she will be in a weakened state when she wakes up. In addition, she has just consumed so much magic power, so both her desire for divinity and the need to replenish her magic power will drive her to chase after us. So this is my plan."

"..."

Upon hearing this, Roman nodded. He naturally had nothing to say about Luo Wei's well-thought-out plan.

but--

"that……"

Roman still felt somewhat puzzled when the Holy Grail and wishing were mentioned.

Although the Holy Grail is associated with wish-granting machines, and the Holy Grail War is fought for the legendary wish-granting machines, and the Holy Grail is often described as omnipotent in mythology, it is the Grail of God, or the Grail created by Heroic Spirits and the Third Law, not the ordinary Grail they possess.

When Goetia created the Holy Grail, although he imitated the Grail from the original mythological texts, his abilities were undoubtedly insufficient to create a true divine Grail, and therefore, it could not grant wishes. Its essence was merely a massive aggregate of magical energy, a fact that Lovi could certainly see. But knowing this, why would he make a wish...?

Before Roman could finish speaking, Luo Wei raised his palm, then cut it open, letting his blood flow down his fingertips into the golden cup.

"This is……?"

Upon seeing this, Roman's eyes widened slightly, for he saw the golden cup emitting a strange radiance. Moreover, that radiance was not merely the light of condensed magic, but a unique, almost miraculous radiance. Even the appearance of the Holy Grail underwent some subtle changes when it was soaked in blood.

"Are you making a real Holy Grail?"

Roman immediately understood what Rowe was doing and couldn't help but ask.

"...Yes, holy blood, magical artifacts, and the most sincere blessings—these are the conditions for the true Holy Grail, the Cup of Miracles, to be born, and that is exactly what I need to do."

"How is this possible? Even you couldn't do something like this...."

Roman subconsciously changed how he addressed her.

"Yes, that's right. If we only consider the concept of the Son of God, it is indeed difficult to create a true Cup of Miracles. But if we extend it with a higher concept and meaning, the situation may be different."

Loewy held the Holy Grail in his hand and gave Roman a meaningful smile.

Although the words weren't clearly stated, some things don't need to be explicitly said to a wise person; both can understand each other. Afterward, Lowe said nothing more, but continued to release his blood to soak the Holy Grail.

Soon, each of the Holy Grails scattered on the ground was filled with a crimson liquid, like red wine, emitting a strange aroma and magic. Then, under the influence of an invisible force, they began to slowly merge, and the outline of a new, huge, and more powerful cup gradually emerged in the room.

Seeing the scene of blood flowing freely across the ground, yet making no sound, and instead meticulously drawing patterns on the ground and walls with its fingers, working in conjunction with materials taken from the treasury to construct the ritual, Roman felt a complex mix of emotions. He swallowed hard, his heart filled with mixed feelings.

Should we shoulder the responsibility, bear the guilt, and respond to expectations and emotions...?

In just a moment, he understood many things.

Whether as a wise king or a compassionate doctor, he was not foolish. Rather, he was incredibly perceptive, always able to think more than others, see deeper, and often reflect on himself.

Upon seeing this, Roman couldn't help but think about his own behavior and situation, and he couldn't help but ask himself a question.

—Is his current choice and action an act of escapism? Should he take responsibility?

The answer is obviously beyond doubt.

But just as he was about to speak, the only reply he received was from Rowe.

"Roman, you don't need to blame yourself or worry. As I said, Solomon owes you something, but you don't owe him anything. On the contrary, you've done very well. And since you've already decided to move forward, just go for it. There's no need to regret it."

"Now that I have accepted your gift, I should take responsibility for your merits and demerits. Although this is not much of a compensation, it is something I can do for you. All you need to do now is to be yourself."

Without any embellishment, Lo Wei turned to look at Roman on the screen and said matter-of-factly.

Seeing that calm smile, Roman was momentarily stunned. In a daze, his thoughts once again recalled a figure that appeared in his mind in a dream thousands of years ago.

Calm, serene, and sublime, yet it doesn't feel distant; it's so noble, yet it feels within reach.

"No wonder that person chose you, you really are exactly the same..."

Roman muttered to himself, having already understood everything.

At this moment, Loewy also completed the drawing, continuously fusing the Holy Grail into one.

He asked, "Then, Dr. Roman, can you help me?"

"As you wish..."

Roman nodded slightly and accepted without any hesitation.

-

Meanwhile, the people outside remained completely unaware of what had happened between Lovi and Roman.

But everyone knows very well that what Lo Wei is trying to do is not about building walls, joking, or childish games.

Only he dared to take on the task of luring Tiamat out, and indeed, he was the most suitable one.

There are still three days until the illusion is broken and Tiamat awakens...

No, it should be said that it's only three days at most.

This also means that Tiamat could wake up at any time.

Therefore, whatever plans they have, they must resolve them all within these three days.

This is also why Gilgamesh gave the key to his treasure vault, along with his strongest Noble Phantasm, Ea, to Lovi.

In any case, to fight against the Primordial Mother of the Sumerian civilization, it is ultimately necessary to use the same primordial power, which is the power of Ea that opened up the world.

For an ordinary person, who is neither a god nor a being of the heavens, to want to use the sword of discord is undoubtedly a delusion. However, with Lovi's status and the original owner's consent, he can use this sword to create its effect at crucial moments.

Originally, Gilgamesh was supposed to carry out this plan himself, but now there is a more important position that requires him, so Gilgamesh chose to stay in Uruk in the last days and use his trump card, which is also the preparation he has made so far, to deal with the disaster.

The Sword of Ecstasy.

This key to victory should be entrusted to those who need it more, so that it can be put to good use at specific times.

However, while the people of Uruk were preparing for the upcoming battle, on the other side, although Tiamat had fallen into a deep sleep, the monsters that had gathered together did not wait obediently. Instead, they took advantage of this time to make their own moves and continued to carry out their operations without stopping.

A dark fog shrouded the sky, and primal lightning flashed incessantly. A piercing sound came from overhead from time to time, as if the sky had been torn open.
