Their commission was suspicious.

The fact that it can be spread is already outrageous. If no restrictions are imposed, Merlin will start to suspect that Chen Luo is the biological son of Alaya and Gaia.

But... first you give the other person blood to drink, and then you have to inject magic into them, right?

If you think about it in a slightly crooked way, wouldn't you be constantly relying on replenishing mana to maintain the materialization of other people's souls?

“Do you want one? I can make you one of your original body as well,” Chen Luo said.

“Sorry, not interested.” Merlin shook his head.

"While soul materialization is indeed considered the third magic, to be honest, I don't really want it." Merlin was a magician from the Age of Gods, and it wasn't like he hadn't seen soul materialization before.

Besides, Merlin, as a nightmare, is an unkillable being.

What do you mean by materializing the soul?

"I feel like Morgan really needs it," Merlin thought to himself.

Morgan can't leave Chen Luo for more than 10 hours a day now, but if his soul is materialized, he might be able to leave Chen Luo for longer periods of time.

Since it was Chen Luo's magic power that was initially injected, can we also regard the magic power generated by the pseudo-infinite as Chen Luo's magic power?

For Morgan, the true materialization of the soul would be useless, because Morgan can directly absorb the magic in the atmosphere, something that all magicians of the Age of Gods can do.

Immortality was useless to Morgan anyway, since Morgan was already like that.

On the contrary, the abridged version, which requires the infusion of Chen Luo's magic into a materialized soul, might allow the other party to break free from Chen Luo...

Okay, so it's gone from not being able to leave each other for 10 hours to being able to leave each other for more than 10 hours.

“Master, I feel that Morgan might really need this propagation version of the soul materialization,” Merlin suddenly said to Chen Luo.

"That's what I think too." Chen Luo nodded.

"Then I'll go and talk to Morgan for you. It just so happens that Artoria is also arriving with Irisviel. You should get back to your work, and I should also avoid Artoria," Merlin said seriously.

"Okay, then I'll trouble you." Chen Luo nodded indifferently.

Anyway, it doesn't matter who says this information, Merlin wouldn't be wrong about this little bit of information, right?

perhaps……

After receiving Chen Luo's permission, Merlin excitedly ran off to find Morgan.

Well, those who offer unsolicited favors are either up to no good or are thieves!

But Chen Luo didn't pay attention. After being reminded by Merlin, he turned his gaze to the area below the Matou family's residence.

There, a black sedan drifted around a drainage ditch and stopped in front of the Matou family's house, then... crashed right through the front door.

Chapter 709 Irisviel's Jealousy of Kirei Kotomine

"You've arrived." Chen Luo sat on the sofa, waiting for Irisviel and Artoria to arrive.

Where is Kiritsugu Emiya?

"Irisviel asked."

After all, Chen Luo's command to Artoria was for her to bring Irisviel to pick up Kiritsugu Emiya, so it's normal that this was Irisviel's first sentence upon arrival.

"He's alone with Kirei Kotomine right now. Their time together isn't exactly pleasant, but it's not terrible either," Chen Luo said, pointing to a room in the Matou family's house.

After hearing this, Irisviel hurriedly headed towards the room.

Irisviel has not forgotten what Kiritsugu Emiya once said: the first person he least wanted to face was Kirei Kotomine.

How could Chen Luo do something like locking the two of them up together?

That's truly devilish!

However, when Irisviel opened the door, she found something was amiss.

That was Kiritsugu Emiya and Kirei Kotomine calmly gazing at each other. There was no tension or verbal exchange as one might expect; they were simply looking at each other quietly.

"..."

Whether it was Irisviel's imagination or not, Irisviel felt that Kirei Kotomine was closer to Kiritsugu Emiya than herself.

This doesn't refer to physical distance, but rather the distance between minds. The two have similarities, and even more similarities than I do.

After a moment of subconscious tension, Irisviel shook the strange thought out of her mind and ran towards Kiritsugu Emiya.

"Kiritsugu, are you alright?" Irisviel asked with concern.

"It's nothing," Kiritsugu Emiya said to Irisviel, who had been staring at Kirei Kotomine, after he looked away.

"Why is he standing here so quietly?" Irisviel looked at Kirei Kotomine warily.

Although Irisviel witnessed Kirei Kotomine being arrested yesterday, there are only Kirei Kotomine, Irisviel, and Kiritsugu Emiya in the room now, so it's impossible not to be wary.

Yesterday, Alice truly witnessed just how terrifying Kirei Kotomine, the proxy known as the Magician Killer, really was. However, her own husband also seemed to be a Magician Killer, which added another boring similarity to her.

"Madam, there is no need to worry. I have no intention of continuing the fight," Kirei Kotomine said, shaking his head.

As for why Kirei Kotomine stayed with Kiritsugu Emiya, the deeper reason was that Chen Luo wouldn't allow Kirei Kotomine to return to the doll collection.

Since the number of people in the Doll Collection is still relatively small, if Kirei Kotomine were to enter the Doll Collection, he would most likely encounter Yvette, who is currently educating that blank-minded android.

Given Kirei Kotomine's rather dangerous personality, Chen Luo did not intend to let Kirei Kotomine have much contact with that android.

Because of this, Kirei Kotomine was disliked.

Out of boredom, Kirei Kotomine asked Chen Luo for a mission to monitor Kiritsugu Emiya, since Kiritsugu was still a prisoner.

Although Chen Luo felt it was unnecessary, seeing that the other party was enjoying it, Chen Luo didn't interfere.

"The most important thing right now isn't this matter, but the issue concerning your health. Chen Luo has promised me that he will use special means to help you resolve the problem related to the Lesser Grail. Go find him quickly," said Kiritsugu Emiya.

"Oh, really?" Irisviel was taken aback.

Irisviel originally came to ask Chen Luo for help, but she didn't expect that Kiritsugu Shigemiya had already made the request for her, which made Irisviel quite happy.

This at least proves that Kiritsugu has me in his heart! - by Irisviel

……

"Can you really help Irisviel survive as the Lesser Grail and summon the Holy Grail?" Artoria couldn't help but ask.

"Why don't you just tell me... where are Sister Wang and Merlin?"

"...Who are you looking down on?" Chen Luo said, embarrassed and angry.

"But can you really modify the Holy Grail War system using magic?"

"Uh, no." Chen Luo shook his head.

"So you can skip the Lesser Grail and summon the Greater Grail directly?"

“That won’t work either.” Chen Luo shook his head.

"Then what makes you think you can do it?" Artoria asked.

"Just tell me if you need me or not!" Chen Luo said, slamming his hand on the table.

"Emmm... I'd like to ask you for help if possible." Although Artoria trusted Morgan and Merlin more in magic, given Chen Luo's amazing performance, she was still willing to give him a shot.

“But your sincerity is clearly not enough. You won’t even call me ‘master’,” Chen Luo sighed.

"...Master, please help me."

[Ding! You have a new request!]

【Save Irisviel】: As the name suggests, the knight Artoria is naturally unable to resist the princess.

Reward: 300 Primogems + 20 points of Artoria's affection

Difficulty: 3 stars

"Master, how do you plan to save Irisviel?"

"You'll see in a moment."

"Master, what wish do you plan to make after summoning the Holy Grail?" Artoria asked after hesitating for a moment.

“Let’s go to the source,” Chen Luo said matter-of-factly.

"Then...which Servant's wish do you plan to grant?" Although she felt that granting a Servant's wish was definitely not her turn, Artoria still wanted to hold onto some hope.

Then Artoria saw Chen Luo looking at her like she was an idiot.

"W-What's wrong? Why are you looking at me like that?" Artoria asked, somewhat confused.

"You want to fulfill your wish, right?" Chen Luo asked.

"You can just say it directly."

"Morgan's wish cannot be fulfilled by the Holy Grail alone, and she hasn't even revealed what her wish is yet. Merlin... never mind."

"You can simply ignore Assassin's wish. Gilles' wish is for Enkidu; I'll help him with that later."

“So, in terms of the right to grant wishes to Servants, it should be your turn,” Chen Luo said, pointing at Artoria.

"So, you're willing to grant my wish?" Artoria said excitedly.

"But have you ever thought about this? There's only one Holy Grail. If I make a wish, what will you make a wish with?" Chen Luo asked a fatal question.

"Huh? Isn't the Holy Grail supposed to grant the wishes of Masters and Servants?" Artoria was taken aback.

"However, things are not like that. There is only one Holy Grail. According to the original logic, the seven Servants, including you, should be killed, and then the real Holy Grail should be summoned to fulfill the Master's wish. In fact, the Holy Grail War is a hoax from beginning to end, tricking you Servants who want to fulfill your wishes into coming here to do free work."

"Ah, of course, if a Master doesn't want to go to the Root and gives up on drilling, simply using the souls of six Servants as sacrifices to summon the Greater Grail can actually fulfill a limited wish," Chen Luo suddenly said just as Artoria was in shock.

"What limits to wishes?"

"Well, it's impossible for your wish to come true. To go back to the day of the chosen king and let someone else become King Arthur? Do you believe that Alaya will mark this place as a singularity?" Chen Luo asked.

"Is it... impossible to fulfill my wish?" Artoria sighed.

To be honest, although Artoria's obsession with the Holy Grail remained, she also sensed to some extent that the Holy Grail was not as omnipotent as she had imagined.

Moreover, this Holy Grail War brought Artoria many new insights.

"Hmm... it's not impossible. If you really want to do it, I can help you. It's just that it might lead to the destruction of the world," Chen Luo said, stroking his chin.

"The world is destroyed?" Artoria's voice trembled.

"That's right, not just anyone can pull out the sword in the stone, right?" Chen Luo asked.

"Mm." Artoria nodded.

“But I can. There’s no weapon in the world I can’t use, no sword I can’t draw. If I were to replace you as King Arthur, I could ensure the smooth continuation of Britain. And then I could indefinitely postpone the Age of Gods,” Chen Luo said.

"Then... the world might be cut into a Lostbelt because there is only one world line."

"..."

"Sigh, Artoria, you should think about it first. Think carefully about whether you really want to fulfill this wish, and whether it's even necessary," Chen Luo said directly.

“I understand. I’ll go find Merlin to discuss this. Where is Merlin?” Artoria asked.

Chen Luo pointed out a direction to Artoria.

After Artoria left, Irisviel arrived late with Kiritsugu Emiya.

"Madam, would you like a temporary solution or a permanent solution?" Chen Luo asked directly upon seeing Irisviel arrive.

"Are you referring to the Lesser Grail? If it can address the root cause, then of course it will," Irisviel said after a moment's hesitation.

"But it's easier to treat the symptoms than the root cause," Chen Luo tried to persuade the other party.

"Please address the root cause, thank you." Irisviel isn't stupid.

"Alright, if you insist, it's not impossible." Chen Luo sighed and stood up.

“Come on, come with me to the lab. I’ll extract your system functions as the Lesser Holy Grail. Then I’ll have another android die in your place,” Chen Luo said, pushing open the bar door.

In Chen Luo's third-floor attic, besides the bedroom, there is also a laboratory.

Through physical surgery and the ability to strip away the Grail, Irisviel could be completely disqualified from the Lesser Grail, both physically and conceptually.

Actually, it would be more convenient to directly create a Lesser Grail, but what Chen Luo is trying to do now is to make Irisviel lose her function as a Lesser Grail.

In that case, Chen Luo would only need a cup in a physical sense.

Removing the Lesser Grail from the other person is extremely difficult.
