What?! My anime figurines have all come true!

Chaldea Faction: Import when the crisis is significant enough.

Let us observe three seconds of silence for poor Paris.

Chapter 281 The Golden Fairy Girl Wielding the Holy Sword

Meanwhile, Eiffel and Sanson, who had been rescued by François, found themselves inexplicably in the outskirts of the Paris region, with the brightly lit city lights visible in the distance.

"That was dangerous! That was dangerous! If we had been any later, the Assassin faction would have had to leave before the ceremony even started!"

François, who had saved the three, spoke words of relief, but his tone was very relaxed, as if he had only done something insignificant.

However, neither Eiffela nor Sanson relaxed in the slightest when facing their savior. Putting aside the other party's amazing spatial teleportation ability, the fact that he publicly admitted to being one of the organizers of this ritual was enough to make the two of them extremely vigilant.

"Oh dear~ Is this how the French treat their benefactors these days? The way you look at me hurts me!"

François actually took out a handkerchief to wipe away non-existent tears.

"While you have indeed helped us, that doesn't mean we can trust you... As the leader of this Holy Grail War, you are naturally also a participant in it. From our standpoint... we are enemies!"

Sanson gripped the twin blades in his hands and stood in front of Eiffella to protect her.

"But it's not time to go to war yet, is it? Charles-Henri Sanson, the most famous executioner in French history."

François, however, showed no sign of preparing for battle. Instead, he called out Sanson's real name, which startled him.

'This person actually knows my real name! Did they figure it out through my previous (execution) operation? Or is it some kind of ability to see through real names? Or perhaps... No! This person is too mysterious and too dangerous! For Master's safety, perhaps we should just stay here—'

Thinking of this, Sanson decided to chant his Noble Phantasm. Even if he couldn't behead the boy in front of him, who was probably not even human, he could at least buy some time so that his Master (Ephira) could escape with her father.

"Mr. Sanson..."

Behind her, Eiffela looked worried. Due to the angle, she didn't see the change in Sanson's expression and was unaware that her servant was about to unleash his Noble Phantasm and explode at François.

"Whoa... Let's talk this out, don't suddenly unleash your Noble Phantasm!"

François seemed surprised by Sanson's fiery temper, and looked flustered, quickly waving his hand to indicate that he really had no intention of starting a fight.

But Sanson paid no heed to this and continued to gather his magic.

"Sigh! What a pity. I thought I could win over an ally... But is this really a good idea? The Lone Wolf faction won't survive long in the Holy Grail War. Even a temporary alliance would be better, especially since you've exposed yourselves to the French authorities far too early..."

Seeing that the chances of winning him over were zero, François had no choice but to give up. With a hint of regret, his body gradually disappeared into the air, leaving only his voice echoing around, which was quite chilling.

"He just left like that?"

Eiffella was still a little taken aback.

"Um……"

Sanson nodded, and secretly breathed a sigh of relief after withdrawing his magic.

They are safe...

temporary.

…………

On the other hand, under Cassandra's strong and efficient execution, the selection of the holy relics was completed quickly, with an efficiency that would make the neighboring Federation admire them.

As a former "robber" nation, France naturally possesses an immense amount of cultural relics, and even excluding counterfeit and substandard products, the total number is astronomical.

However, choosing a suitable medium from among them to use as a summoning medium for a relic is not an easy task.

The first question is whether they want to summon ancient Servants or modern Servants. Victorique specifically stated that the summoned Servants are beings with self-awareness and cognition, and even with the modern knowledge granted by the Holy Grail, they rarely exhibit personality deviations.

In other words, if the Servants they summon are very powerful but have a tyrannical personality, they might have to fight amongst themselves before even facing other factions.

Because there is no contemptuous perception among some magicians in the Type-Moon world that 'Servants are just larger versions of familiars,' even though there are three mandatory command opportunities in terms of Command Seals, and Servants will disappear if their Master does not supply them with magical energy, such a restriction makes it incredibly easy for some clever people to secretly 'plant mines'.

"Servants who respond to the summons also have their own interests," Victorique said.

Furthermore, if a powerful Servant from mythology is summoned, it could trigger a chain reaction, causing other Masters to also summon Servants from mythology. In that case, they would lose all hope of taking over Paris!

Therefore, Cassandra naturally had to consider all aspects when making her selections. First of all, the French could not be summoned, which immediately eliminated 80% of the artifacts. The rest were all items belonging to the French themselves.

For example, the sword used by Charlemagne during his lifetime, the cup used by Charlemagne's twelve warriors, the brooch of Clovis I (the founder of the Frankish Kingdom), and so on...

Indeed, France was the successor to the Frankish Kingdom.

But they might not agree!

As for the modern followers of France...

The same question remains—which previous dynasty are you loyal to?

As soon as a follower related to the Bourbon dynasty appears, the Bourbon loyalists in France will immediately jump out and say, "Let's restore the Bourbon dynasty of the Sun King's era!"

If we summon Servants related to Napoleon, or even Napoleon himself, it would be like Napoleon's old retainers jumping out and saying, "Let's conquer Europe one more time, Your Majesty!"

Then the first to die was present-day France.

Cassandra does not want France to 'die' for the sixth time.

Even if a subordinate belonging to Napoleon's old guard secretly put Napoleon's love letters on the table, she resolutely refused to look at them.

As for Joan of Arc?

Unfortunately, these canonized characters are usually impossible to summon.

"Can't you really choose a suitable relic?"

Victorique, who had already applied the stigmata to Cassandra, was speechless to see them struggling in front of a pile of artifacts like a certain cabbage lady.

"If all else fails, just summon Servants from 'our side'. They are powerful, have little selfishness, and there won't be any crossovers with mythological legends."

Upon hearing Victorica's words, Cassandra and the other officials, who had been having a headache, suddenly felt enlightened.

"Oh yes, there's another way!"

Although 'that world' is also an external aid, compared to foreign Servants, or even Servants from other civilizations, after two months of internet propaganda, the French have long since developed an immense admiration for those powerful and beautiful girls.

With a beautiful and powerful girl from 'that world' siding with the French government, it's advantageous for France right now, both in terms of public opinion and politics, and she's also quite powerful.

As for whether they might have any desire for the Holy Grail?

Haha, in a place where gods roam everywhere, the so-called 'omnipotent wish-granting machine' probably isn't anything special.

“Since you’ve made that decision, I’ll inform them to get ready… Ms. Cassandra, please recite the summoning incantation with me in a moment.”

After saying that, Victorique took out her phone from her pocket and made a call in front of everyone, speaking to the person in the display case.

'So that's how you're notified?'

Cassandra and the others were at a loss for words.

This method of contact is indeed a bit 'simple'.

"Alright, Lady Cassandra, please stand in front of the magic circle, raise your hand to release your magic, and shout with me..."

Seeing that it was over so quickly, Cassandra hurriedly walked to the magic circle, followed Victorique's demonstration, struck the pose, and began to chant—

Declaration:

You are under my command; my destiny rests on your sword!

He who answers the call of the Holy Grail, who obeys this will and reason, respond to me!

I am the one who accomplishes all good deeds in the world, and I am the one who gathers all evils in the world!

Entangled in the Three Great Words of Power for Seven Days!

Emerge beyond the wheel of suppression—Guardian of the Scales!

As the vast, azure magical energy surged within the room, a petite figure wielding a peculiar longsword gradually emerged from the magic circle.

"Orlando Merchant Guild's Fourth Warehouse Fairy Soldier—Ctholly Nota Senioris. Since you've summoned me, prepare yourself..."

—Inherent Skills—

The Fate of the Golden Fairy: A

Explanation: Introduce the flame called "Demon" into the inside of the heart and ignite it, transforming it into immense power.

Because the Golden Fairy is not obsessed with survival, she can unleash magical power beyond the limits of humans and regular Servants, but at the cost of continuously consuming her own Spirit Origin, and gradually losing her memory and sanity in battle.

The world's happiest girl: A+

Note: Even though she was destined for destruction, and even though her memories and personality were constantly being eroded by her past life, Chtholly still chose to embrace the miracle of meeting 'that person'.

When facing dire straits or on the verge of spiritual origin collapse, one can use this "happy" memory to temporarily suppress the erosion of past life memories, gaining an opportunity to activate a Noble Phantasm regardless of conditions or remove negative status effects.

——Noble Phantasm——

First Noble Phantasm: Sereneolith - The Holy Sword That Cuts Off Death

Noble Phantasm Rank: A++

Noble Phantasm Types: Anti-Personnel/Anti-Castle/Anti-Beast Noble Phantasms

Description: The Miracle Sword, composed of forty-one metal plates connected by cursed lines, is the holy sword among holy swords, boasting both historical significance and proven achievements. It can return all things, including the undead, to "death" (it can inflict an extremely complex curse called "death" on those harmed by the sword, even "killing" the undead).

When unleashing her Noble Phantasm, Chtholly summons a fire called "Demon" into the inside of her heart and ignites it to its fullest extent. At the cost of sacrificing some of her Spirit Origin, it transforms into a torrent of light that cuts through everything, ignoring enemy defenses and inflicting "skill seal" or even "instant death" status on the target.

In addition, this Noble Phantasm has a special effect against "divinity", "immortality" and "beasts".

Second Noble Phantasm: Echoes of Stardust - Burning Azure (Hidden)

Noble Phantasm Rank: Ex

Noble Phantasm Type: Anti-Personnel (Self) / Special Attack Noble Phantasm

Note: This is the manifestation of Chtholly's final decision, and also her ultimate self-destruct Noble Phantasm as a Golden Fairy.

When faced with an insurmountable predicament or to protect the most important person in her life, Chtholly will completely give up resisting the erosion of her past life, igniting all possibilities of her existence, soul, and even the past and future, turning them into fuel for "Senecioris".

When she activates this Noble Phantasm, she will briefly reach the peak of "world's greatest happiness," breaking through the limits of all her abilities, fighting until her Spirit Origin completely collapses, and finally releasing the power that has gone out of control to the extreme (Gate of Fairy Land).
