Without any surprise, the giants whose defenses were broken could not withstand such an exaggerated attack and fell down one by one!

The gods were all shocked by this attack, and they all looked at themselves, looking in the direction of Tousaka Rin.

Toosaka Rin was stunned for a moment, then she realized that the place she was in now and the perspective she was using were not her own, but the owner of the lightsaber just now.

The astonishment in the eyes of the gods is for this mysterious man, and this mysterious man should not be a god, but a human being, otherwise why would the gods be shocked by him?

But whose images were these? What was my current situation? Why was I in Greece during the Age of the Gods? Was this a dream? Even if it was, and even though I had read countless stories and read countless myths, it wouldn't be possible to dream something like this, right?

The girl, full of doubts in her heart, watched all this silently and felt the battle. Although she could not hear anything, she could feel some of the inner thoughts of the person who was fighting at the moment, or in other words, she felt emotions. Emotions are not words and cannot accurately describe the content, but emotions can express people's feelings.

Happiness, anger, pain, etc. can all express a person's state.

What Toosaka Rin felt was boredom. It seemed that she was bored with this battle that was preserved in mythology and felt it was completely meaningless.

The owner of this emotion seemed to be saying, "It would be great if I could meet a stronger enemy." Although she didn't say it out loud and she couldn't hear it, this is what Toosaka Rin felt in this emotion.

……

Slowly opening her eyes and yawning, Toosaka Rin gently turned off the alarm clock and left her bed.

She did not fall into a depressed state as usual, but was unexpectedly sober.

Glancing at the sunlight outside the window, she saw that the birds were cheering for the arrival of morning. She silently recalled her dream and fell into confusion.

"It actually was a dream, but what exactly is this dream about? I can't understand it... If this is really the Battle of Guigantes that I know, then the difference between it and what I know is too great. Why are there so many unfamiliar characters in this dream? Not only am I seeing it from my own perspective, but even the woman using the magic bullet should have never appeared in the story of Guigantes...

"But is this really an ordinary dream? For a dream, I remember it too clearly. I even remember the details. I can still recall that boring emotion..."

Toosaka Rin was puzzled. She picked up the gem on the bedside table, hung it on her wrist, and then walked out.

Coming to the living room, she yawned as she looked at Morpheus who was reading a book on the sofa.

"morning……"

"Good morning, Rin." Morpheus said, looking up at the girl. He smiled and said, "You don't wear that gem even when you sleep, do you?"

Toosaka Rin was stunned for a moment, then looked at her wrist and immediately shook her head: "Isn't this just like wearing glasses to sleep? I wouldn't do that! I always put them on the bedside table when I sleep!"

"Oh, really? I thought you valued this thing so much that you would carry it with you even when you sleep." Morpheus said, continuing to look at the book.

His words made Tohsaka Rin silent for a moment, and then she said: "It is indeed very important to me."

"Really? Then tell me about it while you're having dinner later. I'm quite curious."

Toosaka Rin didn't answer and went straight to the bathroom. Soon, the sound of running water was heard from inside.

Chapter 60: Moonstone

After having breakfast, Toosaka Rin tidied up her school uniform before heading to school.

When she arrived at the intersection, she saw a man and a woman walking from the other side. The man was Shirou Emiya. Toosaka Rin didn't care about it. She looked at the girl who was talking and laughing with the man.

My sister Sakura Matou has long purple hair and purple eyes, and she looks completely different from what I remember from my childhood.

However, Toosaka Rin just looked at the other person without any reaction. The other person also seemed to have no reaction to her. She just glanced at her and then turned away.

As they left as if they didn't know each other, Toosaka Rin heard the questions of the Servant she had recruited in her mind.

"It seems like you have a connection with her."

Toosaka Rin was stunned for a moment, but she quickly calmed down and asked, "What do you mean?"

"It's nothing interesting. I just think you two are funny. You clearly care about each other, but you both pretend not to care about each other at all."

"What are you talking about? I don't understand." Toosaka Rin said, her tone sounding a little stiff. In response, Morpheus just smiled and considerately changed the subject for her.

"So, you haven't told me the story about that pendant gem yet. You forgot to tell me during dinner."

Although she knew in her heart that this was an attempt to change the subject, Toosaka Rin still naturally accepted the other party's kindness and began to explain.

"Do you know the magic of the Tohsaka family?"

"do not know."

"...As a Servant, why don't you try to find out the Master's information?"

"I'm lazy."

Toosaka Rin gave up having too many expectations for this Servant. She no longer had many thoughts about this Holy Grail War, so she simply told her own story.

"The magic of the Tohsaka family utilizes gemstones. It originates from the legendary Gem Master. They refine their magic power and store it in gemstones. When needed, they can directly extract and use the stored magic power."

"It's about the arms reserves, that's understandable."

It was a fitting metaphor. Rin Tohsaka didn't respond, but continued, "After these gems are used, they become waste and cannot be used again. Furthermore, each gem can only store a limited amount of magic power...

"Of course, the more precious the gem, the better the effect. But this gem... I know it's just ordinary translucent plaster, a large piece can be bought for a few hundred yen, but it contains a lot of magic power, so much that even after using it for so many years, I still can't use it all up...

"I heard my father say that he bought this when he was traveling in Greece. It was sold as an ordinary beautiful stone. My father just thought it was a little strange, so he picked it up and took a look at it, and found the problem."

"Found a problem?"

"Yes, he was just looking at it, but he discovered that the gem actually contained magical power. If he wasn't an expert in gem magic, he would have never discovered it. After purchasing the gem, he discovered that it was also very strange. The total amount of magic power contained in it was extremely large, and no matter how much he extracted, it would never be exhausted.

"But we can't use all the magic power inside it at once. The amount of magic power we can extract each time is very small, about the same as that of ordinary gems.

“So, it became a permanent spare gem and a treasure of the Tohsaka family.

"My father asked the merchant where the gems came from, but the merchant only had one explanation: that they were stolen by a dishonest thief."

"Just like that?" Morpheus asked.

Of course he knew why the other party was unable to utilize most of the magic power in it. This was because they were using it in the wrong way. If they wanted to utilize the magic power in it, they would need to rely on the correct means, mainly the angels of the Christian Church, to mobilize this part of the power.

Even if it is not guided by the power of Christian angels, at least the belief in the moon god in Greek mythology should be used to extract the magic power. Directly extracting magic power is the most wrong way.

However, for a magician, it is understandable to keep a gem with infinite magic power as a family heirloom. Even if the efficiency of one-time use is not high, it can be extracted every time.

Even extracting magic from here and injecting it into other gems to create disposable items that can be consumed quickly is a good option.

After all, if a person keeps refining his own magic power, his magic power will be exhausted in a short period of time, or it will have a great impact on his physical health. After all, that is vitality.

However, Morpheus wanted to see if there was any other reason.

“Of course it’s not just like that. My father said that although he didn’t fully understand it, the magic within this gem is very gentle and can even affect one’s own spirit.

"I can sense this, too. Whenever I wear this pendant, I feel a sense of inner peace. Even when faced with an emergency, I can quickly calm down, as if this gem possesses the power to calm my heart."

When Tohsaka Rin said this, she was silent for a moment before continuing, "This is not an illusion."

When Morpheus heard this, he suddenly asked, "Do you believe in Christianity?"

"Christianity? You mean the Holy Church, right? It's not a religion. I'm a magician, but my family can be considered believers in history. My senior brother is from the Holy Church. If you insist, the Tousaka family does have a certain relationship with the Holy Church."

"This isn't just a connection. You still have a certain faith in Christianity in your heart, probably influenced by your family. This also means that you have a certain degree of compatibility with this gem."

"compatibility?"

"Why do you think your father could sense the power within it, while others didn't? If someone from the Holy Church came into contact with the gem, they would also discover the power hidden within it."

Toosaka Rin looked in the direction of the voice with some surprise, but only after seeing nothing did she realize that the other party was now in a spirit state and she could not see him at all.

Toosaka Rin was very surprised and asked, "Why do you speak as if you know this gem very well?"

"Yes, it's such a coincidence, because I just happen to know it." Morpheus concealed his feelings, but he didn't need to control his expression. After all, he was in spirit form and no one could see him. "You can call it the Moonstone, or you can call it the Gabriel Stone."

"Moon Stone? Gabriel Stone?" It was the first time that Toosaka Rin actually heard how this gem was called. She looked at her wrist in surprise. Just by hearing the name, she could feel how powerful this gem was.

"Yes, it contains the power of God, representing the power of the water element of the Holy Grail." Morpheus continued, and then he laughed, his voice sounding somewhat nostalgic. "Of course, you can also call it the gem of Artemis."

"Artemis? The Moon Goddess's Gem?" Toosaka Rin frowned. She knew quite a lot about mythology, after all, she was a magician.

After hearing Morpheus' words, she became even more confused. "Although Artemis is the Greek goddess of the moon, you said this is Gabriel's power. What does this have to do with Artemis?"

However, Morpheus, who mentioned the name, did not answer her. Instead, he sighed and said, "Yeah, what's the connection here? It's really confusing."

"So, you heard others call you that too?"

"Well, if you say you heard someone call it that, I think it is."

"By the way, I had some strange dreams last night. Do you know the reason?" Toosaka Rin suddenly said. She dreamed about what happened after Morpheus was summoned, so she guessed that the other party might know something.

"Dreaming? Do you want me to interpret your dream? I happen to know a little bit about astrology and tarot cards. Do you want me to use them to interpret your dream?"

Toosaka Rin was a little confused. Astrology was not used for divination. In her understanding, astrology, as a magic, was used to occupy the magical power of the stars. However, like the vitality in the air, it was difficult to be used for a long time.

"Well, I said divination, not occupation." Morpheus explained, which made Tohsaka Rin shake her head. "Your words make me doubt that you are really a magician? You even call yourself a magician."

Morpheus smiled and said nothing more.

Seeing that Toosaka Rin was becoming less and less confident in the Holy Grail War because of his answer made him very happy.

After arriving at the classroom, Morpheus sneaked into other classrooms to take a look. He saw Shirou Emiya and Sakura Matou, but he didn't see Shinji Matou, which made him confused again.

Where's Matou Shinji? He's not the type to skip classes!

But at the same time, Morpheus turned his attention to another person.

Matou Sakura!

Morpheus had already felt a familiar breath since he first met this girl in the morning. Now that he came into contact with her again, he finally confirmed that this familiar breath did come from her body and from her chest.

There was something hidden inside the girl's clothes, something that made him feel very familiar!

However, it was really difficult to get close to Morpheus. It was obvious that there were servants secretly protecting the girl, and like him, they were in spiritual state.

Morpheus knew that the being was Medusa in Greek mythology!

According to the setting of the Type-Moon world, he probably remembered that Medusa was actually a god in the Type-Moon world, but because she was beaten by the Greek gods and deprived of her faith, she became what she is now.

"Uranus's brother, he represents the descendants of Pontus, who worshipped the original ocean. Medusa's mount, Pegasus, is actually the child of Poseidon and Medusa... Well, that's what the legend says.

"There's no evidence to prove Medusa's three Argonaut sisters are related to the Earth Mother. At most, there's the skull monster from Thessaly. Mushroom just wrote that Cybele and Rhea are indeed one and the same. Even saying Cybele, Rhea, and Gaia are different aspects of the same thing is more reasonable than writing about Medusa..."

"Forget it. I'm already in the Type-Moon world now, so there's no point in thinking these things are irrational. Medusa even used some of Cybele's power. Well, I remember it was useful.

"But the problem is, in ancient Greece, some people believed that Cybele was the Earth Mother Goddess Rhea... and Cybele was essentially a belief of the Phrygians..."

Morpheus chose to surrender to the Type-Moon mythology and did not intend to delve into it any further. He felt that the more he delved into it, the more exhausted he would become.

If he had known that he would come to the Fifth Holy Grail War when he was in Greece during the Age of Gods, he would definitely go to Rhea to ask what was going on. Unfortunately, he didn't know that this would happen at the time.

So, now I can only accept my fate.

The only thing he wanted to figure out quickly now was what that familiar aura on Sakura Matou's chest was.

What have I ended up in this world?

So, thinking this, Morpheus left Sakura Matou's classroom and came to Rin Toosaka's classroom again.

"That's really strange. Who will be participating in this Holy Grail War?"

"How should I know?" Toosaka Rin said, "But the Matou family will definitely participate."

"The Matou family? Oh, I just went to see that girl, right? I saw others call her Sakura, Matou Sakura, right?" Morpheus lied and asked, "Is she alone?"

Toosaka Rin was a little surprised at Morpheus's ability to act. At this moment, her mind was full of only one idea.

"This guy actually went to see Ying without me knowing?! He even knew her name. Is he interested in Ying?!"

"It's normal to investigate the situation, but unfortunately, this is all I can do. Is that girl a contestant? Or is there someone else in her family?"

After hearing Morpheus' words, Tohsaka Rin was silent for a moment, as if she was trying to determine whether it was true or not. After a while, she said, "Ms. Matou's parents are no longer with us. Her grandfather, Matou Zouken, is in charge of the family. She also has an older brother, Matou Shinji."

"So there's an older brother. That means the contestant might actually be Matou Shinji." Morpheus said, wanting to see if he could get some information out of Toosaka Rin's mouth.

Then, as expected, he heard a development that he had never expected.

"No, this time the contestant is Miss Matou, because not long ago, Matou Shinji left Fuyuki City and is said to be heading to Europe."

"Europe?!"

Toosaka Rin said: "I don't know the details, but it is said that he went on a trip."

This answer caused Morpheus to fall into silence.

"Goodness me, Matou Shinji stayed away from the Holy Grail War. Judging from his personality, he was eager to participate in the Holy Grail War to prove himself, but he actually left. Is this world really the Fifth War I know? Why is the gap getting bigger and bigger?!"

This made Morpheus even doubt a possibility.

"Could it be that Mushroom actually wrote a parallel world version of the Five Wars without my knowledge?!"
