Start with Type-Moon, but Magical Index Magician

Strengthen, end!

After finishing this operation, Shirou Emiya picked up the metal stick, waved it gently a few times, and showed a satisfied expression.

His enhancement was successful again!

It's not about restoring things to their original state, but about making them surpass their original state!

Even though this enhancement can only last for a short period of time and then return to its original state, the young man is still very happy.

However, while the young man was happy, he did not notice that something unusual was happening in the warehouse where he was.

On the ground, there is a red magic circle. The magic circle gradually appears, as if it has sensed the call of something and becomes more and more obvious.

When Shirou Emiya discovered this magic circle, it had already been fully constructed and looked very out of place in this warehouse.

It's like an evil formation suddenly appears in a very modern house, making people wonder if there are some mentally ill cultists here.

Fortunately, Shirou Emiya is the adopted son of a magician. Even though he has not received special training, he knows about magic and is not afraid of the appearance of this magic circle. Instead, he becomes a little excited.

"This magic circle... could it be something Dad left behind? I'm usually the only one who comes into this warehouse. If anyone else comes here, it's only Dad...

"But my father has been gone for so long. If he left this formation behind, it must have been many years ago. He didn't tell me about it. Could it be that he thought I wouldn't be able to use it?"

Shirou Emiya thought about it and immediately walked towards the magic circle. Having not received any special training, he was not even wary. Instead, he stretched out his hand and touched the magic circle directly.

However, the moment his hand touched the magic circle, he felt a sudden sharp pain in his fingers!

He quickly raised his hand and found that there was no wound on his hand. Just as he was wondering where the tingling sensation came from, a faint light emanated from the magic circle.

Under Shirou Emiya's stunned gaze, a girl actually rose slowly from the magic circle, a girl in armor!

Shirou Emiya was stunned when he saw the girl, who was obviously a foreigner, appear before his eyes. He had never thought that he would see such a beautiful scene. Under the moonlight, the girl was as sacred as a goddess, and she asked him questions.

"Servant Saber, I have obeyed the summons. Are you my Master?"

Shirou Emiya was stunned for a long, long time, and even forgot to answer the other party.

When he finally remembered to answer the other party, the mysterious girl who called herself Saber suddenly raised her head, turned into a hurricane, and rushed out!

"boom!"

Nothing could stop the armored girl at this moment. Her hands were stretched backwards, and it looked like she was grabbing something, but there was nothing in her hands.

She rushed into the air and swung the invisible object in her hand fiercely, as if she was going to smash it directly on something in the air.

Accompanied by a rapid sound, Saber fell towards the ground due to the reaction of the force. At the same time, the figure in the air also fell down and landed outside the Emiya residence.

"Saber!"

Shirou Emiya rushed out shouting, and saw three people confronting each other at the door.

Saber raised her hands, obviously holding something transparent, and the British man standing there with a dagger in his hand. Especially when he saw the girl standing behind the man, Shirou Emiya was stunned.

"Tousaka Rin?!"

……

When Morpheus saw that cold light, he knew who had launched the attack. He could recognize that figure as the strong candidate for King of Books, the great Queen of Britain, Lady Altria!

However, Morpheus had no interest in it. If possible, he would be more interested in men.

It's not that he is gay, it's simply because men are more handsome.

He casually took out a dagger to block the opponent's attack, and Artoria, who relied on high jump to attack, suddenly fell down.

Morpheus also took the opportunity to cancel the flying spell and landed himself. At the same time, he put Toosaka Rin aside and blocked her in front of the opponent to prevent Altria, who was preoccupied with the battle at this time, from hurting Toosaka Rin.

At the same time, Morpheus also looked at the invisible object in Artoria's hand. Knowing that this sword was the Sword of Promised Victory, he couldn't help but have an idea.

"Wouldn't it be fun if I had the British royal family's sword of mercy, Katina, in my hand right now?"

Then, this idea was suppressed by Morpheus.

"No, no, no. Not to mention that this thing can only be used in the UK, even if it can be used, Michael's power of full-dimensional cutting... is still a bit bullying."

Of course, this is not the main reason.

"Besides, I can't build Catena III either. I have no idea about its exact structure. I heard that the British royal family doesn't even have the blueprints preserved!"

This is the real reason.

The Saber in the Fifth War is a being who uses all means of deception in war, or it can be said that the character of Saber itself is very fragmented. Artoria written by Gen Urobuchi and Artoria written by Kinoko Nao are completely two different people.

One is a cowardly person who has no qualifications to be a king, and the other is a dictator who will do anything to win, even at the cost of the people.

Of course, even as a dictator, the Saber created by Mushroom is pursuing her original dream, the dream of embarking on the road to becoming a king.

So now he is in the fifth battle, and the most likely opponent is Artoria written by Mushroom. Morpheus doesn't think that the other party will abide by any chivalric ethics. If necessary, this Saber will definitely choose to kill the master directly to end the battle.

But just when Morpheus was ready for battle, a man suddenly ran out and called out to his servant.

Morpheus had been to Shirou Emiya's house before, so he naturally recognized who this boy was.

He is the famous Shirou Emiya, temporarily called Emiya-kun. After all, he cannot become a great hero in this world.

When Morpheus saw Shirou Emiya calling out to Altria and then showing a look of surprise and confusion towards Toosaka Rin, he knew that this battle could not be fought.

"Master, please stand back. I'll take care of these two enemies right away!" Artoria said, and was about to attack again, but was stopped by Shirou Emiya: "Wait a minute!"

At this point, the situation had not yet developed to the point where Altria would rush forward directly, and Shirou Emiya did not use his Command Seals.

"This is a war, do you have anything to say?" asked Altria. At this time, Morpheus had put away his weapon.

"Put away your weapons, Saber. I have no intention of fighting you for the time being. And your Master is clearly in a state of confusion. Don't you think it would be best to explain the situation to him first?"

Artoria didn't put away her weapon, but continued to look at Morpheus with a smile. "It would be foolish to put away your weapons, Archer. Besides, once we get rid of you, I can naturally explain the current situation to the Master."

"As a warrior, I understand that you would be the first to resolve the crisis. However, if your mind can only think of relying on combat to solve the problem, and even ignore the potential hidden dangers, then I have to say that what happened to you was inevitable."

This sentence changed Altria's expression. At this moment, she had a feeling that the other party seemed to have seen through her identity!

But she carefully recalled her actions just now and felt that there should be no way to expose her identity.

"Don't think you can hide your true identity by hiding your weapon with the wind. I'm showing goodwill. If I want to fight, I can kill you instantly knowing your secret. This is not a lie, so put away your weapon. You don't have any men to pay the price."

Altria did not put away her weapon. At this time, Emiya Shirou behind her said, "Put away your weapons first. Let me figure out what's going on, Saber."

With these words, Altria finally put away her weapon, and Toosaka Rin looked at Morpheus.

"Sure enough, he saw through the identity of this Servant again, and it's obvious that he was right, otherwise the Servant wouldn't have reacted so strongly... But this one turned out to be Saber, a layman actually summoned Saber!"

The girl thought so, but outwardly she tried to maintain the decorum of a noble, and greeted Emiya Shirou with a smile: "Good evening, Emiya-san. So you are indeed a layman, right?"

Chapter 68: The Holy Church

In the Emiya mansion, Tohsaka Rin was teaching Emiya Shirou what a Servant was, what a Command Seal was, and what the Holy Grail War was, while Morpheus was blocked by Altria.

"You don't want to fight me here, do you?" Morpheus said with a smile, pointing at Shirou Emiya inside the house: "If this place is destroyed, I think he will be in trouble."

Artoria ignored Morpheus' words and asked directly, "What do you know?"

"What do you think I know?" Morpheus asked with a smile.

This made Altria's expression change slightly, and then she said: "If you can't say anything, then I can only regard it as your trick. The words you said are just words that can frame most of the servants.

"And this kind of trick won't stop me from attacking you. This is the Holy Grail War, and we're bound to fight in the end. Once Shirou understands what the Holy Grail War is all about, I think he'll choose to defeat you!"

"Really? If that's what you think, then so be it." Morpheus said as he walked into the house. He casually sat down beside him, picked up the teacup, and took a sip. "This tea is well brewed, Emiya Shirou, are you interested in exchanging tea art with me?"

"Well...if you're willing..." Emiya Shirou replied a little embarrassedly.

This made Toosaka Rin glare at Morpheus in dissatisfaction: "I'm explaining what the Holy Grail War is all about, don't interrupt me!"

"Yes, yes, yes, Miss." Morpheus said, and looked around the room casually again. Soon, he aimed at something next to Shirou Emiya's TV and walked over immediately.

He skillfully turned on the TV and the black machine. As the logo of the game console company appeared, Morpheus excitedly rummaged through it.

"Servants are beings that summon heroes from past human history into the real world and command them. For example, your Servant, Saber, is clearly a knight from Europe."

As she spoke, Rin Toosaka glanced at Morpheus, who was happily playing the game, completely devoid of any ancient influence. She sighed, "Of course there are exceptions. From what I know now, it's not just the past that's going to appear. There's even the possibility of other timelines appearing."

"Other timelines, that means people from the future may also appear?" Emiya Shirou asked in surprise.

"I'm not sure." Toosaka Rin answered honestly.

"Yes, future individuals will indeed appear. In fact, because the Heroic Spirit has already separated from the timeline and become an independent entity that exists outside the timeline, there is a probability that the past self can summon the future self that has become a Heroic Spirit."

Morpheus had already opened a game and was operating it very skillfully, and he still had the mind to answer the questions from the two magicians on the scene.

This made Shirou Emiya exclaim in surprise: "It's actually possible to summon future servants!"

"Of course, after all, we are out of time."

As Morpheus spoke, he controlled the character on the screen. Artoria, who was standing beside him, looked at Morpheus's skillful operation and could not see any unfamiliarity at all. He was like a otaku young man who had been addicted to games for many years.

"But wait, didn't we just say that Heroic Spirits are promoted based on various achievements? If your future self goes back and kills your past self, then the foundation for that person to become a Heroic Spirit will be gone. How can they still exist?"

"can."

Morpheus's answer was simple: "But there should be a bug. After being separated from the timeline, it has become an independent existence. However, because it went back to the past and killed itself, this will cause its own legendary story to be cut short before it is born. Without the legend, the power of this heroic spirit will be greatly reduced."

Relying on the 0.2 seconds of invincibility to perfectly avoid the Boss's attack, Morpheus controlled the character's sword and slashed hard at the Boss's weak spot.

With a precise blow, the boss took several steps back and became stiff.

While pursuing, Morpheus said, "In other words, from a powerful Heroic Spirit, he became a useless Heroic Spirit who can only lie down. That's probably the only change."

As Morpheus said this, he suddenly thought of another thing.

"What I just said is fine, but according to this situation, if the Heroic Spirits are independent of the timeline, then those worlds that were cut out... do the Heroic Spirits of those worlds still exist now?

"Generally speaking, time and space, including the Throne of Heroes outside the timeline, and even the Inhibition Force, are all contained within a single world. So, if that world is cut, all of these should disappear along with it. However, it's still uncertain. Perhaps we'll have to delve deeper into the root cause in the future to understand what's going on..."

While Morpheus was thinking to himself, Toosaka Rin and Emiya Shirou also understood some things they didn't know before because of Morpheus' explanation.

At this time, Toosaka Rin looked at Altria and asked, "Saber, is there something wrong with your current condition?"

"Well, because of Shirou's immaturity, I'm in an incomplete state right now."

This sentence made Emiya Shirou stunned, and then he shouted: "What does this mean?!"

"It means that because of your immaturity in magic, your Servant is currently in an incomplete state. You must know that the actions of a Servant rely on the magic power provided by the Master."

Toosaka Rin explained and looked at Altria again: "When it is impossible to guarantee that all of one's own magic power is replenished by the Master, the Servant needs to rely on other methods to replenish magic power."

Just at this moment, Morpheus, who was playing games over there, interrupted.

"For example, directly killing someone and then refining magic power from the dead body is also a method. After all, magic power is equal to vitality. Depriving others of their vitality can be enough."

"I would never do such a thing. Besides, what's the point of this Holy Grail War? Just to achieve our dreams, we have to kill each other and even involve many innocent people!"

Emiya Shirou suddenly shouted, as if he was stressed out by Morpheus' words.

This reaction made Toosaka Rin stunned, and Altria couldn't help but look at Emiya Shirou. It seemed that she realized her own loss of composure. Emiya Shirou calmed down and whispered "I'm sorry".

Then, he emphasized again: "I will never do such a thing!"

"It's okay. If you don't want to do it, there are other ways." Morpheus defeated the game boss and entered the reward settlement page. "For example, you can provide food to the servants, which can also provide magic power. Or the living creatures used as sacrifices don't need to be human. Ordinary birds and beasts will do."

After Morpheus put forward a few of his own opinions, he said:

"If you really don't like this kind of fighting, I recommend that you go to the Church and convince the Judge to remove your Command Seals and relinquish your eligibility to participate. That way, even if you lose your Servant's Master, you can stay in the Church under its protection until the end of this war."

Toosaka Rin glanced at Morpheus, somewhat surprised that he knew so much about the Holy Grail War. However, when she thought about how this guy almost became a student of the Clock Tower, she immediately understood why.

But why does it seem like Morpheus, who made this request, is deliberately asking Shirou Emiya to go to the church to withdraw from the competition?

Look at Saber over there whose expression has obviously become a little ugly. Is this to eliminate Saber directly?

If Saber, the strongest servant, is eliminated directly, it will indeed have a great impact on the direction of the subsequent Holy Grail War.

Toosaka Rin was thinking silently, and at this time, Emiya Shirou also stood up: "I want to go and see, to ask the people in the church."

Although she didn't know what Morpheus's purpose was, Tohsaka Rin still stood up and said, "I'll take you there."

After saying that, she added, "Besides, I'm your enemy now. It's not good for you to just listen to me and not others. The church happens to be a third party with inside information. You can listen to what the church members say."

Morpheus laughed secretly on the side.

"If I didn't know that Kotomine Kirei was considered your senior, I would have almost believed what you said."

……

Under the cover of night, three people walked on the street, while Morpheus disappeared. A group of people came to the outside of the church, but Artoria was unwilling to move forward and chose to stay at the door.

Although Emiya Shirou was curious, he decided to let the other party stay there as he wished. Morpheus paused at the door for a moment and said with a smile: "Are you afraid that the priest will see you like this?"
