"Well, I chose the Knight King for three main reasons. First, the Saber group is definitely not abnormal servants. They are normal Masters of the Holy Grail War and are on the same side as us. Second, because of that abnormal servant Mordred, the Knight King, like us, will be the priority target, so it is most appropriate for us to stick together and it will be easier to attract those abnormal servants. Third, the Knight King's left hand was damaged and she can't even release her Noble Phantasm. She is the weakest, so it will undoubtedly be much easier to win them over to form an alliance." Wang Chong explained.
"That's right... Has Wang Chong ever considered Diarmait and the King of Conquerors?"
"Although Diarmait is quite good, the Master he has is not very good and will only drag us down. As for the Conqueror King... he has his own opinions and may not be so easy to recruit. The Knight King is undoubtedly our best choice right now." Wang Chong said.
After a brief discussion, Wang Chong and Zhende continued their journey home. However, when it came to choosing a partner, they both tacitly classified a certain Streetlight King as someone they couldn't win over.
Chapter 78 The Priest and the Golden-haired Villain
Wang Chong and Zhende returned safely to the mansion. After reviewing their findings and intelligence from the night, they each went to sleep, preparing for the arrival of tomorrow's sunshine. Of course, Wang Chong didn't truly rest; the real fun wasn't over yet.
So, Wang Chong only left one clone in the room to rest, and he himself went into the darkness again.
"System, you can claim the event rewards now." Wang Chong said to the system as they advanced in the night.
"Okay, ding—congratulations to the host on successfully completing the [Holy Grail War: First Night, First Battle] event. Not only did you demonstrate extraordinary strength on that first night, making the Masters and Heroic Spirits remember you, but you also showed the full force of your power for the first time, successfully changing the course of the Holy Grail War and seizing the initiative. You also caused every Master, even the Arbiter Jeanne, to misjudge the outcome of this Holy Grail War. Hidden behind the scenes, you manipulated everyone to your heart's content! Your initial display of power as a great villain is truly terrifying."
"This event was accomplished and demonstrated the character of a great villain. Therefore, the host is rewarded with 2000 Villain Points, 3 Epic Lottery draws, 3 random skill cards, 3 Command Spell strokes, 1 more ghosts, and improved ghost quality."
"There's actually a direct reward for the number of ghosts? Let me take a look at my Strength of Ruin progress bar... As expected, the experience bar for Strength of Ruin has directly increased by 5%, and now it's 10% progress. But this shouldn't be due to those 1 people. You know, I absorbed tens of thousands of heroic souls from the Conqueror King's Legion, but the progress only increased by about 2 or 3%. It seems that the real reason for such a large increase is that the quality of the ghosts has improved." After receiving these good news, Wang Chong almost laughed out loud.
"However, according to this conversion comparison, if I want to advance the Power of Ruin to the next level, that is, level 4, I must absorb and generate at least a million Heroic Souls. Tsk tsk, and that quality must be the same level as the King of Conquerors' army. If I were to create ghosts from ordinary people, I don't know how many would be needed."
"Level 4 can accommodate so many ghosts, what will level 5 be like? It's so terrifying just thinking about it. No wonder it's the Curse of Ruin that can sweep across the entire Rune Continent and cover the sky and the sun. It's just that it's restrained by that thing called the Holy Stone of Light. It's really a problem. It seems that in addition to improving the power of Ruin, I also need to develop in many aspects."
"Including the skill card I got from Jeanne earlier, I already have 4 skill cards, and I've made 7 epic draws. However, I'll have to wait until I reach 10 epic draws before I can make another one. System, draw a skill card for me."
Wang Chong didn't hesitate to let the system draw four skill cards to see if it could give him some better skills to enhance himself.
"Ding—Congratulations to the host for winning the following skills: Leadership Temperament C-level; Military Strategy C-level; Emperor's Privilege C-level; King's Judgment (Glory of the Kings)."
"??? Oh my goodness, I think these skills I drew were intentional. They're all centered around Kings. Especially the last one. Why is there even a King of Glory skill in it?"
Wang Chong briefly glanced at the skill descriptions. Leadership Temperament and Military Strategy were both related to large-scale team combat, and their individual benefits were quite limited. Only Emperor's Privilege provided a boost, and combined with his natural physique and bravery, his physical strength was even better. As for the final skill, King's Judgment, it granted penetration to all his attacks, which was marginally good.
"System, spend 600 points to upgrade the three C-level ones to B-level. Unfortunately, the King's Judgment seems unable to be upgraded, there is no improvement at all, but the damage will definitely cause a penetration, which is good for ambushing people." Wang Chong said.
"Ding, all have been upgraded successfully." Following the system's prompt, Wang Chong felt that his BUFF had been added to another level, and his strength had been raised to a higher level.
"But the rewards every time are all skills or something. Although my Ruined King Sword is enough for now, I still want some powerful Noble Phantasms. Speaking of which, Gilgamesh has a lot of good things... Should I use a Master Ball to capture this guy? I guess Tōsaka Tokiomi will have no place to cry then." Wang Chong said to himself.
"Forget it. As for Gilgamesh, if everything goes according to normal rules, Kotomine Kirei and him are bound to be together. It would be a shame to waste a Master Ball on him. Given Kotomine Kirei's current level of loyalty to me, there's no need to worry about him betraying me. It just so happens that I have something entertaining to do tonight." As he spoke, Wang Chong began to contact a busy priest.
……
"You are here, Diosama (Lord)." At this moment, a priest was about to half-kneel down respectfully to show his piety, but was stopped by the man in front of him.
"Qili, although we are master and servant, I have always regarded you as a like-minded friend." The visitor said calmly.
"I'm terrified." Kotomine Kirei said softly.
At this moment, Wang Chong once again transformed into Dio's form to meet Kotomine Kirei. Logically, he no longer needed to pretend to be Dio to speak with Kotomine Kirei. After all, having confirmed Kotomine Kirei's unwavering loyalty and the double guarantee of the Power of Destruction, he had already explained everything to him. However, even though he had told Kotomine Kirei his real name, for some reason, Kotomine Kirei still preferred to call him Dio and preferred his appearance as Dio.
"Could it be that golden hair is naturally effective at trapping priests?" Wang Chong thought with a shudder. Fortunately, Kotomine Kirei's eyes were pure, devoid of worldly desires.
Wang Chong paid no attention to Kotomine Kirei's humble words. Instead, he walked past Kotomine Kirei and slowly walked to the edge of the building. He looked at the towering restaurant, his hands on his hips, and chuckled softly. Kotomine Kirei followed him to his side, also looking at the building, and said:
"That is the magic workshop built by Lord El-Melloi."
"Qili, how do you feel about your first battle tonight?" Wang Chong asked calmly.
"To be honest, there are many interesting parts. My favorite is the battle between the Servant named Mordred and the Knight King. Of course, the sad faces of my father and teacher are also pleasing. The adults have toyed with all the Masters in the palm of their hands. This attitude and joy are really something to yearn for." Kotomine Kirei said, and couldn't help but chuckled twice.
"You'll be able to enjoy more of this kind of fun in the future. But, Kirei, you still haven't noticed the gift I carefully prepared for you?" Wang Chong said.
"Gift?" Kotomine Kirei was slightly stunned. Could it be that he had something interesting that he didn't know about?
"Emiya Kiritsugu...what do you think of this person?" Wang Chong suddenly asked.
"Emiya Kiritsugu... before I met you, sir, I was very interested in this guy. He seemed to be just like me, unable to find any motivation to participate in the Holy Grail War, so I really wanted to understand him. I felt like I was the same as him, and seeing him was like looking at myself in the mirror. This is why I was so confused and interested in him. However, after meeting you, sir, I no longer have these thoughts," Kotomine Kirei answered somewhat seriously.
"You're right about one thing. You and him really do have a mirror-like relationship." Wang Chong finished speaking, then smiled, as if thinking of something interesting, and continued, "Oh, right. One of those two guys I let you chase and then deliberately let go was Emiya Kiritsugu."
As soon as the words fell, Kotomine Kirei's eyes changed slightly. Kotomine Kirei was a very smart man. Combined with what Wang Chong had asked him to do before, he had already guessed what the so-called gift was.
"You should already know the relationship between me and that Judge. You also saw that I had that fellow Emiya Kiritsugu deliberately shoot me. And now, your teacher, your father, is also worried about the Masters of those extra Servants." Wang Chong patted Kotomine Kirei's shoulder and said slowly, "Oh, by the way, Emiya Kiritsugu is actually the real Master of the Knight King. And the Knight King had his left hand crippled by a Lancer. If the curse is not lifted, he will not be able to release his Noble Phantasm. So what do you think will happen to the Knight King's Master?"
"I know what to do." A hint of excitement flashed in Kotomine Kirei's eyes, and his body couldn't help but tremble.
"I'll give you a very useful piece of evidence. When something unexpected happens in this building later, I'll have my Mordred show up nearby. I'm looking forward to seeing how you, Kotomine Kirei, will make good use of this gift—Emiya Kiritsugu... I'll leave it entirely to you, Kirei." Wang Chong said nothing more and disappeared behind Kotomine Kirei the next moment.
Kotomine Kirei also took a deep breath and murmured, "He's clearly a normal Master, but because he wanted to hide his own decisions, he ended up being the scapegoat. Hehehe, this is truly fascinating."
Chapter 79: Who is the easiest woman to deal with in Chaldea?
"Boom!"
Wang Chong watched from afar as Fuyuki City's tallest building, the Hyatt Regency, collapsed with a bang. Just as in the original novel, Emiya Kiritsugu, determined to break the curse on his Saber, resorted to blowing up the building to kill Kayneth. If Kayneth hadn't possessed the magical ritual Moon Spirit Marrow Fluid, he would have perished at Kiritsugu's hands.
Kotomine Kirei should have gone to play with Emiya Kiritsugu and Maiya. His Servant, Hassan, had a very strong ability to find enemies. He pretended to let the two escape, but in fact he had been keeping track of them.
As for whether Kotomine Kirei would capture the two at once or play hard to get, that depended on Kotomine Kirei's own decision. However, Wang Chong suspected he would choose to play slowly.
"grown ups."
The voice of Kotomine Kirei reporting rang in his mind, and Wang Chong said calmly, "Let him go?"
"Your Excellency is very capable. You know exactly what I want." Kotomine Kirei continued to reply respectfully.
"After all, the later the scapegoat is caught, the longer it will help us attract attention. Oh, and your servants must always keep a close eye on him. You can give him opportunities to communicate, but don't let him escape back to the Einzbern castle here." Wang Chong said with a smile.
"Why?"
"Some misunderstandings can't be resolved simply through verbal communication. And since that Einzbern family member, Saber, and Kiritsugu haven't seen each other for a long time, this misunderstanding remains unresolved. What do you think will happen?"
"I understand. Misunderstandings will only become more serious, eventually creating a gap and an indelible estrangement, leading to a final break... You are truly worthy of being an adult." Kotomine Kirei said.
"Okay, the direction has been decided. I'll leave it to you to decide how to handle it." Wang Chong hung up the call with Kotomine Kirei and began to walk into the alley.
……
Matou family
"Everyone performed well today." After arriving in the hall, Wang Chong praised the heroes who had all arrived and praised them without hesitation.
"Is it necessary to go through so much trouble? Master, even if that guy is in this Holy Grail War, with the power we have now plus your strength, it will not be an easy task to sweep the entire Holy Grail War." Black Jeanne d'Arc leaned back in her chair and said with a little dissatisfaction.
"Hehehe, Master's intention is not to kill those guys and win the Holy Grail War, but to make those guys please us." Stheno said with an inexplicable smile.
"Huh? To please us? Although seeing that guy's shocked face today did make me happy...but Master, you don't have any bad intentions towards him, do you?" Black Jeanne looked at Wang Chong suspiciously and asked,
"Is it not possible? We should recruit all the heroes we like. This is normal. What's more, Joan of Arc had a close relationship with us. Although she has moved to a different world and doesn't remember those memories, wouldn't it be nice if we could be reunited?" Wang Chong didn't hide anything and directly expressed his thoughts.
As expected, Black Jeanne instantly became excited. She stood up and shouted, "Great! You're still obsessed with that guy! You still like her more, right? I knew it was like that! I saw you protecting her like a chicken, and I knew something was wrong!"
"Black Joan of Arc..." However, Wang Chong did not say anything more. Instead, he slowly walked in front of Black Joan of Arc and stared calmly at her excited face.
"What...what are you doing? Don't think I'll be scared if you look at me like that." Facing Wang Chong's bottomless eyes, Black Jeanne felt an inexplicable sense of oppression and could only wave her little fists and threaten.
"Alright, Black Jeanne, in my eyes, you're completely different from Jeanne." Wang Chong grabbed Black Jeanne's wrists and pulled her into his arms. He gazed at her flushed face and said softly, "I personally created you with great care. I even shared my memories with you so you could remember everything. These are things Jeanne never had. Don't you understand how much I value you, Black Jeanne?"
"Om-!!"
Feeling the sound of boiling water, her entire face flushed red. Unable to contain her shame, Hei Zhendace shook off Wang Chong's hands and slumped down into the chair beside her. She turned her head away and said in a trembling voice, "Hmph... hmph! You're smart. Also, I don't care about these things at all. Do whatever you want to that guy... It's up to you... It's up to you."
Seeing Black Jeanne's expression, Wang Chong knew this hurdle was basically over. He no longer had to worry about Black Jeanne's extreme behavior when he brought White Jeanne back. He could only say that she was indeed the easiest woman to deal with in Chaldea.
"I say, Master, you are really amazing. You flirt like this in front of us. Oh, it seems that the glory of the goddess no longer matters to you." At this time, a sour voice sounded from the opposite side.
"Oh no, they're robbing Peter to pay Paul." Wang Chong looked towards the source of the voice. It was Euryale, who had a resentful look on her face.
Just as Wang Chong was beginning to think about how to resolve this situation, a voice broke the silence.
"I'm back... Huh? Why is the atmosphere so solemn? Isn't it the right time for me to come back?" Modred pushed open the door and immediately noticed that the atmosphere in the conference room was a bit solemn. No one spoke a word, so she asked with a frown.
"No, no, no, you're back just in time, Mordred. Sit down now and tell me what's going on."
As luck would have it, the appearance of Mordred temporarily resolved the awkward topic, so Wang Chong quickly asked Mordred to sit down and explain the situation.
"Yawn... If there is nothing related to our arrangements, can we be allowed to leave early, Master? My useless sister suffered many minor injuries in the battle, and I am worried that this will affect her development. So I have to go and check her out." Steno said abruptly at this time.
"Eh? Sister, my injuries aren't serious..."
"No! We said you need to be checked, so we have to check. When did you become so independent that you dare to question your sisters' decision?" Yurielle said in a dangerous tone.
"Ah..." Little Medusa immediately stopped talking.
"Go ahead. After all, this is Little Medusa's first battle today. Although I should have recovered from all my wounds, don't leave any hidden injuries." Wang Chong nodded. He knew that the real reason why the other party left was probably because he had not been fair and had been too straightforward in criticizing Joan of Arc, so he was not in a good mood.
“I’ll compensate them both after the meeting is over,” Wang Chong thought to himself.
After the three Gorgon sisters left, only Jeanne d'Arc and Mordred remained. Because Jeanne d'Arc was shy and hadn't listened much throughout the conversation, Wang Chong focused his conversation primarily on Mordred.
"That's basically it. The Master of Lancer is really lucky. Even with such destruction, we couldn't kill him. But I was thinking of releasing a Noble Phantasm on that mercury ball, if you hadn't asked me to hold back against them." Mordred shrugged.
"What are you going to do about the Knight King?" Wang Chong asked.
"...I don't know." After hearing this question, Mordred was silent for a long time, and finally gave this answer, "When I saw my father again, I thought I was ready. I also thought that my death, or my father's death, might make her change. But in the end, nothing happened... Sometimes I wonder what I really want to do."
"Especially when I saw the Conqueror King's army appear, I was puzzled. I don't know why my mind was so confused. I started comparing my father to that king. We were once like those soldiers, trusting him immensely. But in the end, my father's figure became increasingly lonely. We were always staring at him, but he never seemed to look at me... Yes, it wasn't just me; my father's gaze seemed to be fixed on no one."
Mordred's eyes showed a rare confusion. She looked at her most trusted Master and asked, "Master, if you were me, what would you do next?"
Chapter 80 The Goddess's Evil Play (Part 1)
"Me?" Seeing Mordred asking him, Wang Chong thought for a moment, but finally shook his head. Although he knew the fundamental contradiction between Mordred and the Knight King, this contradiction had to be resolved by Mordred himself. If an outsider, even himself now, pointed it out rashly, it would only make Mordred even more unhappy.
"Master, don't you know either?" Seeing Wang Chong shake his head, Mordred felt a little disappointed. However, he quickly dismissed the matter. After all, it was his personal matter.
"Although I don't know how to do it, I know there is a way for you to eliminate your confusion yourself, Mordred." Wang Chong exhaled and said.
"What method?" This made Mordred curious. Could it be that his master had some good method to help him figure out these problems?
"Do you remember how we got to know each other, Mordred?" Wang Chong asked.
"Hmm? We had a fight before, what else did you say... For warriors or knights, nothing can better understand both sides than a battle. Using battle and sword to confirm will and understand each other... What do you mean?" As Mordred spoke, there seemed to be some enlightenment in his eyes.
"The Holy Grail War... is a battlefield created for all those heroic spirits who want to realize their obsessions. This is true for you, Mordred, and for the Knight King as well. Your doubts and confusion all stem from the battle with the Knight King, from the clash of your obsessions. The person who tied the bell must untie it." Wang Chong said this and stopped talking.
"I see... Hahaha, I have to say, Master, this method of yours is exactly what I like." Mordred laughed heartily, and the gloom between his brows dissipated a lot. He said, "You are right, Master. The Holy Grail War is such an interesting place. I will keep fighting, carrying this confusion, carrying this question, and keep fighting! Fight against my father, and fight against the heroic spirits who stand before me! Trust in my instincts, trust in my blood and sword."
"Well, I believe that in the end, Mordred, you will find your own answer. Then, continue to fight for me."
"Yes! Master, I will overcome all obstacles and defeat any enemy!" Mordred smiled brightly, his eyes filled with fighting spirit and seriousness.
……
After Mordred had dealt with his worries, there was basically nothing else to do, so he was allowed to rest before leaving. Meanwhile, Jeanne d'Arc, with some ambiguous thoughts bubbling over her head, was happily coaxed back to her room.
"Alas, hell lies ahead." After dealing with his other two Heroic Spirits, he would face the punishment of the goddesses. Honestly, after spending so much time with the three Gorgon sisters, he had already developed a deep bond. Therefore, Wang Chong had never put on airs in front of the rather headstrong sisters.
However, relationships require more than just mutual consent; they also require management and communication. Even the strongest relationships will eventually develop rifts if communication wanes or misunderstandings persist. This is human nature, even these seemingly otherworldly goddesses are not immune. Don't ask why Wang Chong understands this so well; don't forget that what he's doing is poaching and alienating people.
"Forget it, just cooperate with them and satisfy them. They probably won't do anything excessive." Thinking of this, Wang Chong opened the door of his room and walked in without hesitation.
"The smile of the goddess~"
"The goddess's gaze~"
The familiar opening style. As Wang Chong entered, two voluptuous, scantily clad goddesses were lazily lounging on the bed, their fair legs crossed. Their complexions were creamy, their eyes radiating a captivating charm. Even more thrilling was the fact that their clothes were almost completely open, revealing vast expanses of snow-white skin and a faint glimpse of their private parts.
After seeing Wang Chong come in, the two mischievous goddesses sat quietly on the edge of the bed with playful smiles, releasing their extremely seductive goddess power, showing their goddess charm again, and completely arousing the desire in Wang Chong's heart.
"Actually... there's no need for you two to start the game the moment I come in..."
"Shut up, Master has become more and more presumptuous recently. It was okay that he often slept outside with that golden-haired woman before. Now he is even getting intimate with other women in front of us. It seems that Master has tired of our charm and looks down on us." Yurielle's face was slightly shadowed, and she had a sad look that even the hungry and resentful woman had never had.
"So this is a punishment, Master. This is a punishment for you forgetting the goddess and ignoring her favor. Come here obediently, my stupid Master. It's time for you to remember who your little one belongs to." Stheno's eyes became quite dangerous at this moment. He hooked his finger, and under the influence of power and the fact that Wang Chong did not resist, Wang Chong allowed Stheno to control himself, closed the door, moved a chair, and let himself "obediently" sit in front of the two goddesses.
"Let me think about how to punish the Master? Euryale (me), do you have any good suggestions?" Stheno shook his white little feet, turned his head and looked at Euryale and asked.
"Hmph! We must make the Master remember his lesson, make him wander back and forth between pain and happiness, make him afraid of us, and make him never forget the taste we gave him, the unique taste that only we can give." As if venting her anger, Yurielle raised her leg high and kicked it high, aiming it straight at Wang Chong's chin, as if she wanted to kick the Master who made her sad away.
However, the baby-like, tender feet dangled just in front of Wang Chong. A refreshing fragrance filled his mouth and nose, and Wang Chong felt his throat dry up as his lower body gradually began to react. The two goddesses' feet were like priceless treasures, and he couldn't take his eyes off them. When he noticed the change in himself, he realized that Stheno and Euryale had noticed.
"Oh, Master, you are getting excited without permission? You should know that this is a punishment, right? Or, is this your capital to act recklessly?" Stheno said frivolously, and the goddess's silk thread looked at the tall tent with a faint smile.
Stheno gracefully sat on the edge of the bed, placing her right foot on Wang Chong's chest. Her slender toes were as white and smooth as jade, and the soles were as soft and tender as a baby's skin. Wang Chong felt a gust of fragrant air, and he couldn't help but extend his tongue to lick those delicate feet.
"Don't do anything, Master!" Stheno narrowed his eyes, his tone threatening. "Don't forget, this is a punishment. You can only watch this happen obediently and let us do whatever we want, whether we use our feet, our hands, or even deep in the cave. If you dare to act without authorization, not only will we stop immediately, but we will also make you suffer unimaginable wrath."
Wang Chong had no choice but to nod. To appease the unpleasantness the two goddesses had just experienced in the meeting room, he would not disobey their orders. Stheno then smiled contentedly and gently caressed Wang Chong's chest with her foot, feeling his heartbeat quicken. Her toes playfully brushed across his collarbone, finally reaching his Adam's apple, where she gently pressed it with her toes.
