"What if the guy you mentioned doesn't come back? Do we have to wait forever, Master?" Diarmait said at this time. This question attracted the attention of almost everyone. Perhaps this is also something that everyone is very concerned about.

"It won't be long. If he doesn't come, then we can proceed with our own intelligence. With seven Servants, and they all belong to the same faction, we have a huge advantage.

Kotomine Kirei shook his head: "No matter what, it's impossible for them to completely gather together and become one. Everyone has their own plans and ideas. Unlike us, we are one!"

Looking at the changes in these people's expressions, Kotomine Kirei felt that his speaking skills were quite good.

Then all we have to do next is wait for Hassan Baimao to bring back the information, then directly raid the other side, use the advantage in numbers to take down one of them, and then slowly use similar methods to suppress them.

In the Holy Grail War, as long as you have the advantage in numbers and the advantage in reporting, you will have a great advantage.

And he has advantages in almost all of them!

Chapter 98: An Excuse for Peace of Mind

Toosaka Rin lay silently on the bed. Although she had been lying in bed for more than half an hour, she still couldn't fall asleep.

Lying quietly alone in such a place, she felt inexplicably lonely.

I want to find someone familiar to chat with, but I find that I don’t have anyone I really know.

Or maybe the person he is most familiar with should be Sakura Matou, after all, she is his sister, and from this point of view, it is indeed Sakura Matou who has lived with him the longest.

However, she didn't know how to address the other person, and she also felt that the other person seemed a little strange.

When Rin Toosaka thought about the fact that although she and Sakura Matou had been classmates for many years, she was not only her junior, but also not in the same grade, and they had never spoken to each other, she felt discouraged.

She gently touched her heart, feeling its beating, and smiled softly, a somewhat painful smile.

"I'm scared?"

Talking to oneself is actually asking oneself a question, or in other words, it is self-acknowledgement.

She was indeed afraid.

She was afraid to face her sister.

It was so hard for her to meet the other person face to face and even start talking, but because the so-called truth suddenly broke out, she became scared instead.

And who can I rely on now?

Toosaka Rin found somewhat helplessly that if she were to ask who she was most familiar with, it seemed to be only the guy named Morpheus.

"But he's never really had a close relationship with me, right?" Toosaka Rin shook her head and sighed.

Morpheus is very free, not like a Heroic Spirit, or rather, he is not like a Servant, who is uncontrollable and has his own ideas. Moreover, it is more like the Master leading him than the Master leading him.

Now that so many people have gathered here and formed a group, it is all thanks to Morpheus, and she herself is like a pendant, useless.

Are you inferior?

Not really. Toosaka Rin doesn't feel inferior. Although she always thinks she is a genius, she doesn't think there is anything wrong with Morpheus being more talented than her.

She just felt very lonely and didn't know who to talk to.

Loneliness has nothing to do with low self-esteem.

Toosaka Rin thought so.

However, after lying there silently for about ten minutes, she still couldn't fall asleep and began to wonder whether she should call that guy.

"Can't sleep?"

The sudden voice from the side made Tohsaka Rin stand up suddenly. She stared at Morpheus who appeared beside her and asked, "Why did you suddenly appear?!"

"Of course, it's because I sensed someone was upset and couldn't sleep, so I came to see what was going on." Morpheus shook his head. "After all, you are my Master. If you don't get enough rest, it will affect my ability to work!"

"I'm sorry..." Rin Tohsaka apologized honestly, which made Morpheus look at her. He once again confirmed that there was indeed a big problem with Rin Tohsaka's condition at this moment.

So, Morpheus sat casually aside and said, "Actually, I think you could try to have a good chat with Ying."

"You two are really close," said Rin. This made Morpheus turn his head and look at her for a long time. Rin felt a little uncomfortable being stared at and asked, "Why are you looking at me like that?"

"No, I just felt like you were jealous from what you said just now."

Toosaka Rin's reaction was even more intense: "No way!"

"Okay, if not, then not." Morpheus seemed to be indifferent, which made Toosaka Rin pout a little unwillingly, but she didn't say anything.

"Actually, Ying trusts me more than I trust her. Her trust is higher than mine. Can you understand?"

Toosaka Rin shook her head: "So she knows you? Or does she know you in this world?"

Morpheus told Rin Toosaka what happened. Rin Toosaka was shocked when she heard what Morpheus said.

"When Sakura was about to be in danger, you showed up and helped her?!"

"Well, that's what she said. Listening to this description, I'm pretty sure my future self appeared ten years ago. As for why, it's because she has something that's closely related to me."

"Closely related?"

"It's similar to the Moon Goddess's gem you have. She also has something similar. Based on it, my future self appeared. That's my guess." Morpheus said, spreading his hands. "I can only say that this is fate. If it weren't fate, I can hardly explain why that thing appeared in this world."

Morpheus became curious again. "But why didn't she summon Atalanta even though she had that thing? That thing could clearly be used as Atalanta's holy relic."

This made it even more difficult for Toosaka Rin to understand.

"It's closely related to you, but it's a holy relic of Atalanta?"

"It's simple, because I gave it to Atalanta. After Atalanta passed away, it must have been lost in the world, and I don't know how it ended up in her hands.

"The biggest question here is how this thing can travel through time and space. After all, the world where Atalanta is should be another parallel world."

Toosaka Rin thought about it and found it difficult to figure out what was going on, so she temporarily put the question aside. She just breathed a sigh of relief and said, "So, that means Sakura didn't suffer too much pain?"

"You didn't even ask me if Sakura didn't suffer any pain."

"I'm not stupid. She got this from Uncle Kariya, but when Uncle Kariya arrived... it had already been a few days. She must have suffered."

Morpheus did not say these things at the dinner table, but told them to Toosaka Rin now, and Toosaka Rin also had her own guesses.

Seeing Morpheus nod, Toosaka Rin showed pain, but at the same time she felt relieved.

"That's great. At least, at least there is always something protecting her..."

This will at least make her, as an older sister, feel better.

But this feeling of looking for an excuse to make herself feel better made Toosaka Rin feel a little disgusted.

Finally, the girl could only stop thinking about it and asked, "I've been here for so long, why did you just show up?"

"Of course, we're setting up a barrier to surround the Emiya family and prevent anyone from breaking in and disturbing our rest." Morpheus smiled and gently patted the other's shoulder. "Rest now. I won't leave until you fall asleep."

Toosaka Rin glared at Morpheus and said, "Don't even think about doing it!"

"I'm a gentleman, don't worry."

Toosaka Rin looked at Morpheus doubtfully, but finally lay down and pulled the quilt over herself.

Morpheus looked at the girl closing her eyes, smiled, and asked, "Would you like to sing a lullaby?"

After a long while, the other party's soft, mosquito-like voice was heard: "No need!"

Chapter 99: Medea's Plan

Looking at Morpheus who came out, Medea asked, "Are you asleep?"

"Yeah, fell asleep." Morpheus nodded and then sat aside.

Medea smiled and shook her head, "Actually, all you need to do is hug her and kiss her, and she should relax."

Morpheus frowned. "Although what you said makes sense, and I think my charm is indeed sufficient, but if I do this, why do I feel like a pervert?"

Then he shook his head: "That won't do. I'm a gentleman, not a pervert. It's not good to take advantage of others when they are in pain."

Medea asked, "So this is why you didn't kill Atalanta?"

Morpheus immediately shook his head. "No, was she emotionally wounded at the time? No, I was simply teaching her, not thinking about it that way. I still respect women very much, but if she had made a move at that time, maybe I would have given in."

"Puchi!" Medea couldn't help but laugh when she heard the shameless words. She was of course very clear about Morpheus's character. He was a gentle and responsible person towards women. Apart from being a bit fickle, there was nothing wrong with him.

She walked over quietly and sat next to Morpheus. They leaned against each other and looked at the night sky together. Then she asked, "How long has it been since we looked at the night sky together like this?"

"It must have been a long time for you, right? I'm not very clear about what happened on the Throne of Heroes, but at least within my lifetime, it must have been many years."

"Yes, it's been many years, a very long time. And the so-called lack of time on the Throne of Heroes is essentially a relative statement. It's simply because the Throne of Heroes has its own time, independent of the outside world. If there truly is no concept of time, then the Heroic Spirits on the Throne of Heroes would be unable to do anything, let alone respond to summons."

Medea said this and shook her head slightly.

"But this also gives me an opportunity. After this Holy Grail War is over, I will not stay. I will leave here and return to the Throne of Heroes."

Morpheus looked at the mature woman with some surprise. He didn't expect that she still wanted to go back.

As a result, he saw the other party shook his head: "Don't look at me like that. I have made a great determination. After all, I am just an avatar, not a real heroic spirit."

This sentence made Morpheus frown slightly, and he couldn't help but ask: "You want to leave the Throne of Heroes?!"

"The probability is low, but not zero. As long as I bring back the information that I've seen you and my main body takes action, there will always be a chance to escape from the Seat of Heroes. Plus, the time between the Seat of Heroes and this world is not closely related, so as long as I seize the opportunity, I can reappear the moment I leave."

Morpheus shook his head and said, "This is difficult. Time control is not that simple."

"Of course I know. Don't underestimate me. Although I mainly studied magic knowledge, and the main source of magic knowledge is the goddess Hecate, but no matter what, I am also a true witch, the most powerful magician in the Age of Gods!"

Medea's face was full of confidence, as if she didn't think she would fail at all.

"The timing may not be very precise, but I believe it won't be too long. We will definitely meet again. When the time comes, it won't be my clone who will come to see you, but my real body!"

They were relying on the Holy Grail to stabilize the passage between the roots and the present world, but Medea actually wanted to cross out directly without any huge magic power to help stabilize it, and did not want to continue staying in the Throne of Heroes. This choice made Morpheus silent.

After a while, he said, "Don't be too reckless. I will find a way to get the beacon and send its signal to the Throne of Heroes!"

"Then I don't know how long I will have to wait."

"It won't be long. Maybe a few months, maybe a few years, or maybe even decades. But no matter what, it won't exceed an ordinary person's lifetime. I'm sure of that."

At this point, Morpheus shrugged helplessly again: "My arrival in this world was an accident. I can't confirm which world I will go to next, and I also have a world I must go to. So if you let your true body come to this world, it will be very troublesome. After all, you don't have the means to travel through worlds at will like me."

This sentence finally persuaded Medea. She had to admit that what Morpheus said made sense. Even if she could really quickly cross the barrier between Heroes and the world, if Morpheus had already left this world, then it would be much more troublesome for her to find him later than when he was in Heroes.

If this is the case, then waiting for the other party to send a message on the Throne of Heroes seems to be the only feasible solution.

At this point, we need to bet on Morpheus's magic level.

Medea was not worried about this at all. Morpheus' magic was very powerful and magical. Some people's magic was just powerful, and some people's magic was just magical. But Morpheus's magic was not magic but magic, and it was both powerful and magical. So, there must be no problem with him, Medea thought.

However, no matter whether you are worried or not, after waiting for so many years, there are some things that you have to do.

Her fingers gently brushed across Morpheus' chest and whispered, "Don't even think about running away tonight. These few hours tonight belong to me!"

Medea at this moment is as passionate as fire!

It’s like it can melt the steel bars directly!

……

Inside the room, Sakura Matou was lying on the bed, but she was not asleep.

"It's an amazing feeling, isn't it? Even though it was that person who sent me to that hell, now that I hear the reason for his death, I still feel a little angry."

Matou Sakura said this with a slight smile.

"But Harmony must not be seen by my sister. She doesn't need to see these things. She just needs to continue to be the head of the Tohsaka family and work hard for the Tohsaka family's dream."

Medusa listened to Matou Sakura's words silently. After a while, when Matou Sakura seemed to have finished speaking, she said, "Sakura, since you are so worried about your sister, why don't you go and comfort her?"

"Comfort? There's no need. My sister is always strong and will definitely get over it on her own." Matou Sakura shook her head, rejecting Medusa's offer. Then she smiled and said, "Compared to this matter, I'm more concerned about the situation with the Holy Grail. Although Brother Morpheus has gained an absolute advantage and can be said to have solved the most troublesome opponent, can the Holy Grail accept this outcome?"

"what are you worried about?"

"The Holy Grail has its own consciousness. It follows the purpose for which it was originally created and is preparing to achieve this purpose. Given the current circumstances, it is inevitable that the Holy Grail War will not proceed as planned. So, does it have any plans of its own?"

Matou Sakura said, looking at Medusa's somewhat shocked expression, she smiled and said: "These are just my speculations, don't worry too much, even if an accident really happens, I believe Brother Morpheus can handle it."

Medusa couldn't help but ask, "Why are you so confident? Is it because he helped you in the past?"

"Yes, and after this meeting, I am even more certain that there is no problem. Because the person who helped me in the past is his future self, then he must not have encountered any real crisis and must have achieved his goals.

"Brother Morpheus from the future didn't give me any reminders or tell me to pay attention to anything at this time. That also shows one thing: he is satisfied with the outcome at this time, so there is no need to change it.

"Otherwise, considering Brother Morpheus's plan, even if he knew that this action would most likely only create a parallel world where his plan would succeed, rather than truly changing the past, he would still choose to tell me."

These are very reasonable speculations. Although these speculations are based on the fact that Morpheus is a good person, Medusa has to admit that after these few days of contact, she also thinks Morpheus is a good person.
