This witch seems to have been researching something recently, as if she is constructing some kind of spell. It is said that if it is completed, her range of activities will be expanded from the current building directly to the entire city.
"It's just a simple earthbound spirit concept. You'll elevate the land you possess from the concept of this building to the concept of Fuyuki City. This way, you can move throughout the entire city."
Kojiro Sasaki doesn't know much about magic and sorcery, so he just listens to the witch. His current job is just to patrol the building, and if anyone comes to investigate, he will kill them.
"Isn't it just being a security guard?" Sasaki Kojiro thought to himself and asked again, "Is there any problem with the Holy Church?"
"According to the information obtained from Atram, the Templar Church is the judge, a force that has been staying in Fuyuki City, monitoring the Holy Grail War. From this point of view, this organization may have extra Command Seals."
"You want to snatch the Command Seal?"
"No, it's just to prevent them from using the extra Command Seals to attack during this Holy Grail War, thus causing some trouble... and no one can be sure that they, as referees, won't leave the field themselves."
Medea smiled slightly when she said this.
"After all, for the magi participating in the Holy Grail War, the last thing they could have imagined was that the Holy Church, the judge, would suddenly intervene in secret. The Holy Grail, which can grant all wishes, may not necessarily grant all wishes, but it demonstrates its immense power. Not many could resist its temptation."
Sasaki Kojiro listened to the other party's sigh and said, "After all, they are human beings. People always have their own desires."
……
"So, what's going on?!" Seeing a bunch of people suddenly appear in Emiya Shirou's house, Fujimura Taiga, who is Emiya Shirou's teacher and a friend of Emiya Kiritsugu, roared like a tiger.
"Tell me quickly, did you do something bad, so these people came to your door?!" Fujimura Taiga pulled Emiya Shirou and asked in a low voice: "For example, you owed a debt, so they came to your door?"
Emiya Shirou said helplessly: "No, Sister Fujimura, debts won't make foreigners come here, right?"
It was originally difficult to explain the addition of a Saber to the family, but now that there are a lot of people, Shirou Emiya finds it much easier to explain.
"For example, Saber, Illya, and Morpheus over there are all here from England to play, and Tohsaka-san is their friend, so she came to help this time."
Toosaka Rin immediately smiled and said, "That's right, Mr. Fujimura, we are friends. This time, I heard that they were coming here to play, so I came over to help. It's just that my home is too far away, and Emiya-san's home is big enough and it's also indoors, so I asked Emiya-san to do it for me."
Fujimura Taiga looked at Toosaka Rin with some disbelief, then looked at Morpheus and Saber, as if he was wondering how credible these words were.
"Oh my, this trip to Japan was really a sudden decision... Oh, no, how do you say it in Japanese? Yes, yes, yes, it was a sudden decision, it was sudden!"
Morpheus suddenly said at this time that the Japanese he spoke was like someone who had studied Japanese from scratch for three consecutive days and then went on a trip, and he also had a distinct British accent.
"I'm really sorry to bother you, Mr. Emiya. If it weren't for you, I might not even have a meal right now. After all, I lost my wallet on the way!"
Saber listened to what Morpheus said and looked at him in slight shock. She had never expected that he would speak like that.
The Holy Grail will provide the servants with the necessary local knowledge, including the language, so they speak almost like the locals, but at this time Morpheus really pretended to be an outsider, and his Japanese was extremely poor.
If this guy was going to act, couldn't he have just told me? How was she supposed to pretend she didn't know much Japanese? She hadn't even practiced!
Just as Saber was thinking this, Fujimura Taiga also laughed immediately: "You speak Japanese very well, hahahaha, you lost your wallet, that's really a pity, in that case, it doesn't matter if you live here!"
Morpheus, who was praised for his good Japanese, immediately burst into laughter. "Really? I spent quite a while learning it, too. It's great to be able to communicate smoothly!"
Watching the interaction between the two, Saber fell speechless, while Toosaka Rin looked elsewhere. She felt that she could no longer bear to look at her Servant. As for Emiya Shirou, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
"I passed the test perfectly!" he couldn't help but think.
Now, apart from considering how to explain this reason to Matou Sakura, there is no other problem!
Emiya Shirou thought so and looked at the field outside.
Last night, a mysterious magic circle appeared in that place and sealed the black giant.
Now the magic circle has been lifted and the giants have been liberated, but the giant named Berserker is still too big, and it is difficult to explain after he comes out, so he has been in a spirit state and has not been revealed.
As for the girl named Illya, she is watching TV over there now.
She didn't pay any attention to the communication here, as if these things had nothing to do with her.
Just at this moment, there was a knock on the door. Shirou Emiya immediately walked out and opened the door. The person who appeared at the door was Sakura Matou, a schoolmate who often came to his house to help. She was the sister of his friend Shinji Matou.
Thinking of Shinji Matou, Shirou Emiya felt a little envious. This guy had recently traveled to other places and just happened to avoid the Holy Grail War in Fuyuki City. His luck was too good.
"Good morning, Senior Emiya." Sakura Matou greeted Shirou Emiya, then followed him into the house. She was about to greet Taiga Fujimura, but when she saw the people in the house, she was stunned.
Her gaze passed over Fujimura Taiga, over her sister Tousaka Rin over there, and over the blonde woman who was obviously a Servant.
Her attention was focused directly on the man wearing a trench coat and dressed in British style.
That figure was so familiar, one could even say it had never changed, just as it was in memory!
"Sakura, that blonde woman and the man in the trench coat are both Servants."
The voice of the hidden servant Medusa came to her ears, but these words could not disturb her at the moment, because her brain was unable to think about other things at this moment.
"It's actually him! He shows up again! He really shows up again! After all these years, he's here again!"
Sakura Matou was cheering in her heart at this moment. She wanted to go over and say hello to the other party, but she couldn't, because she saw that when the other party looked at her, he just smiled and nodded, which was considered a greeting. These actions were not used to greet acquaintances.
At this moment, she remembered what her servant had just said.
"Big brother is a servant? How is that possible?!" This was the first thought that came to her mind, but then, relying on her own uniqueness, Sakura Matou felt the other party's uniqueness, and there was indeed the feeling of a servant in it!
"How could this be? Why is Brother Morpheus a Servant? Or is this an experiment he conducted in his pursuit of the path of magic?"
Matou Sakura thought about it and did not ask the other party directly. Instead, she suppressed her excitement and showed a look of surprise. She asked Emiya Shirou: "Senior Emiya, why are there so many people in your house all of a sudden?"
Since Morpheus is pretending not to know her, she will not recognize him casually. Even though she can't wait to talk to him, Sakura Matou knows that she has to wait for an opportunity until they are alone!
So, after listening to Emiya Shirou's reasons which were obviously all lies, Matou Sakura nodded: "So that's how it is. Looks like I have to make a lot more breakfast today!"
There was no need to doubt it, these reasons must have been approved by Morpheus. Since they were approved by Morpheus, she naturally didn't need to think too much about it, she just had to pretend to believe it!
Chapter 75: Enlightenment
Toosaka Rin originally thought that her meeting with Matou Sakura might be very awkward, but the awkwardness she expected did not occur.
It's not because there is no barrier between her and Matou Sakura in their conversation, but because, at this moment, Toosaka Rin and Matou Sakura couldn't even say a word to each other.
The reason is very simple. Sakura Matou's attention is almost entirely focused on Morpheus. Even if she tries to hide it, the admiration in her eyes cannot be faked. With Toosaka Rin's familiarity with her own sister, she can see that Sakura Matou is very interested in Morpheus.
For example, now, when everyone is gathered together for dinner, Sakura Matou's eyes almost never leave Morpheus!
"What's going on? These two people should clearly be meeting for the first time. Morpheus's attitude is also very clear, just like they're meeting for the first time. But Sakura's attitude, although pretending it's the first time, is obviously like seeing someone you haven't seen in a long time..."
"And judging by the look in her eyes, her attitude towards Morpheus is clearly different. In all these years, I've never seen her show such an expression towards anyone else...
"Although Morpheus is indeed quite handsome, not to mention in the school, he's probably T0 in the entire Fuyuki City, but it's a bit too exaggerated to say that he can bewitch people so instantly. Morpheus can't possibly have the bloodline of a succubus, right?
"Could it be that the blessing from the god of love he mentioned has increased his charm? Well, it's possible. After all, it's a blessing from God. It's only natural that he would become a heartthrob!
"No, I have to remind Ying, don't be fooled by this guy. He looks very young, but I don't know how long he has lived!"
Just as Toosaka Rin was thinking this, Matou Sakura suddenly said to Morpheus: "Mr. Morpheus, you are traveling here, do you need a guide?"
These words made several people look at Matou Sakura, and Emiya Shirou looked very surprised, as if they had met each other for the first time.
"Is this still the Sakura I know? She's usually so shy and timid, but now she's saying something like that!"
I was shocked that Fujimura Taiga also liked you, and I started complaining wildly in my heart.
"This guy may be handsome, but he shouldn't say such things, Sakura!"
Toosaka Rin also stared at Sakura Matou. Although she had long noticed that she had been observing Morpheus, she did not expect Sakura Matou to say such words directly.
It looks like a question, but in fact the hidden meaning of this sentence is "I can be your guide."
Before Morpheus could answer, Tohsaka Rin opened her mouth and said, "Don't worry about that, Matou-san. I'll be your guide."
There was a smile on her face, but it looked a little unnatural.
Seeing Rin Tohsaka say this, Matou Sakura glanced at her, feeling a bit worried and puzzled. "But isn't Senpai usually very busy? And judging from your familiarity with the city, I'm probably more familiar with it."
In response, Toosaka Rin continued to maintain her smile: "Don't worry, I still have time to accompany him."
Seeing this, Matou Sakura said, "Oh," and then said directly to Morpheus, "If there's somewhere you want to go but I don't know where it is, you can come find me."
She directly ignored Toosaka Rin and extended an invitation to Morpheus.
Just when a surge of air rushed up in Toosaka Rin's lungs, almost blocking her throat, Morpheus spoke.
"Thank you very much. If you need anything, I'll be at your service, Miss Matou."
Matou Sakura smiled slightly: "It's not a problem."
Afterwards, the two of them stopped talking.
Illya, who was eating on the side, watched this scene and fell into deep thought.
"It seems that Morpheus and Matou Sakura don't know each other. That's right. After all, Morpheus is a Servant, and he doesn't know many people in this world. He first met Rin, and then the others. If they met Matou Sakura today, then they must have known each other today..."
"But Matou Sakura's reaction makes it seem like she's known Morpheus for a long time. Could it be that Morpheus was summoned ten years ago? But that shouldn't be the case. I have all the Servant information from ten years ago, and there's no such thing as Morpheus..."
Illya thought so and looked at Artoria who was concentrating on eating.
"Rather, Saber and I have known each other for ten years. Now she's pretending not to know me, and I'm pretending not to know her. We're both acting pretty well.
"And Morpheus wasn't summoned ten years ago, so... what secret is hidden here? Could it be that it's hidden in his special magic... um, his special magical knowledge?"
When Illya thought of this, she couldn't help but look forward to learning magic with Morpheus even more.
Time passed slowly. After dinner, Fujimura Taiga rushed out of the house shouting "We're going to be late". Then Toosaka Rin, Matou Sakura and the other three slowly left the house and walked towards school.
As for Morpheus, he stayed at home for the time being.
Toosaka Rin is protected by the Moon Stone, and can also rely on the Command Spell to communicate with herself, so she is not in danger even if she is alone in school.
Morpheus also didn't believe that Sakura Matou would watch her sister in danger without taking any action.
So there is no problem even if I stay in Shirou Emiya's house now.
What's more, he is not the only one here, there are also Ilia and Saber, plus Hercules who has been in spirit form.
While Rin Tohsaka is at school, Morpheus plans to teach Ilia the introductory knowledge so that she can temporarily have a certain understanding of Morpheus's magic, so that the other party has time to consider the next cooperation relationship among them.
Thus, the basic course that Rin Tohsaka had already completed unfolded in front of Ilya.
Time always flies when studying, and Ilya is a fairly diligent student, so more than two hours passed in the pleasant teaching process.
After letting Illya review over there alone, Morpheus came out of the house and looked at Hercules who had revealed his body in the yard. He shook his head.
"You look helpless. Is it because of this giant?" asked Altria from the side.
"About the same. If Ilia had summoned an archer instead of a Berserker, her chances of winning the Holy Grail War would have been even higher."
This surprised Altria a little, and she couldn't help but ask, "Do you know him?"
"We know each other, and we're considered friends. If he were allowed to maintain his consciousness and use his weapons, he would be able to unleash even greater strength. Moreover, due to his rich combat experience, even you, Saber, would not be his opponent."
Morpheus' words were not refuted by Artoria. She could see that this black giant contained great power. Although Artoria was proud, she was not blindly arrogant.
Altria glanced at Illya, who was still studying inside the room, and suddenly asked, "How do you plan to cooperate with her?"
Morpheus smiled: "Are you curious?"
"As a temporary ally, it's normal to have doubts about these things." Altria immediately found an excuse.
Morpheus knew that Artoria was still worried about the children of her former master, but she couldn't say it casually. Once she said it, her attempt to hide the fact that she had participated in the Fourth World War would be in vain.
In fact, seeing that Illya did not say that she knew her, and even pretended not to know her, this also made Artoria feel relieved. At least in the short term, she could continue to hide it.
Just as she was thinking this, Morpheus said slowly: "As the daughter of your former Master, it is natural for you to worry about her situation. I can understand."
"You!" Artoria suddenly looked at Morpheus, her expression as if she had seen a ghost. She stammered, "How, how did you know?!"
"I told you I got it from divination, do you believe me?"
Morpheus said, seeing Altria's "you're kidding me" expression, he didn't even continue to explain, but just said: "I don't like people getting hurt, especially children. Although this girl is older, she is a child in mentality.
"And the Holy Grail, or rather the Holy Grail War, is full of tragedy. To reduce some of the tragedy, I intend to intervene a little."
At this point, Morpheus suddenly asked, "Saber, what will you do if the Holy Grail is different from what you imagined?"
"The Holy Grail is different from what I thought?" Artoria repeated what Morpheus said. She felt more and more that the man in front of her knew a lot of things, knew her secrets, and seemed to know some details about the Holy Grail that she didn't know.
"During the Fourth War, the Holy Grail's center, or heart, was Irisviel. As for the Holy Grail's core, it was the ancestor of the Einzbern family and the first android, Yustiza.
"Now that Irisviel is gone, the Holy Grail Heart of this Fifth War will be Illya. Once the Holy Grail War begins and the Servants die, their power will gather within her, causing her body to collapse."
When Morpheus said this, he looked at Artoria. The other party's expression did not change, and it was obvious that she had known this for a long time.
"You've participated in four wars, so you should know this."
Since her secret had been seen through by the other party, Altria no longer concealed it. She nodded directly: "I know."
"The end justifies the means, even at the expense of others, to achieve his goals. Although cruel, it is ultimately for his own success. I think this person is suitable to be a villain with ideals."
When Morpheus said this, Altria's expression changed.
