Type-Moon, the Path of a Magician

Under the earl's coercion, he managed to sleep for about two hours. Judging from his complexion, he had recovered quite well.

He was also stunned when he saw the Rider group appearing here.

The trajectories of Weber and Kenneth in this world were very different from what he expected. Weber did not secretly run to the Far East to participate in the Holy Grail War to prove himself to Kenneth. Instead, the two of them teamed up and came to the Far East to participate in the Holy Grail War.

So what happened? Is this the butterfly effect? ​​Did this world's Weber not write that paper? And did other groups experience this change?

With many questions in mind, Xia Yuan couldn't help but think about it, but now they are allies and can be considered brothers. With the addition of Weber's group, their strength will undoubtedly become stronger. At least the change that has taken place is beneficial to them.

"Ah?" Weber turned around and saw Xia Yuan standing next to Kenneth and greeting him.

Xia Yuan behaved very appropriately: "Hello, Brother Weber, I am Caster's Master. Like you, I am now a student of Teacher Kenneth, so I am considered your junior, or junior fellow apprentice."

"Junior brother?" Hearing this title, Weber was stunned for a moment, then turned his head and looked at Kenneth with a puzzled look.

Things changed too quickly and he really couldn't understand what was going on. He had only slept for about five hours, so how come he had a new junior brother for no reason?

"Yes, I have invited Xia Yuan to join the El-Melloi classroom. According to seniority, Xia Yuan is indeed your junior fellow apprentice now, but..."

Kenneth's tone changed, and he said, "However, Weber, you should not be too proud. Although he is only a first-generation magician, Xia Yuan has a high talent for magic. He is much stronger than you, who only has three generations of inheritance."

"The first generation of magicians, very talented."

Weber was stunned when he heard this. This was the first time he heard Teacher Kenneth praise a student like this. At the same time, he looked at Xia Yuan curiously. The fact that this young man could be evaluated like this by the always sarcastic Teacher Kenneth was enough to reflect his high talent.

But...how did Teacher Kenneth receive this student?

Could it be that the teacher broke into Caster's magic workshop while I was asleep, then used physics to convince Xia Yuan, and finally saw his potential and brought him back as a student?

But it's daytime now? Isn't it said that fighting can't happen during the day? It can't be that Xia Yuan surrendered on his own, right?

While Weber was daydreaming, Kenneth woke him up with a cold snort.

"Idiot, what are you still doing here? It's almost night time, why don't you get ready and take Xia Yuan to my magic workshop to get some protective gear. We are going somewhere tonight."

"Where to?" Weber asked.

"As for the Holy Grail War Supervisor, even though we hate those priests, we still need to go there because we don't admit that he knows more about the Holy Grail War than we do."

As he spoke, Kenneth took out the invitation letter from his pocket and handed it to the two of them.

"This is the invitation letter sent by the church's familiar this afternoon. They seem to be gathering all the masters. Although it's inexplicable, it's still necessary to give them some face. I'm also very curious about what tricks they are playing?"

"Of course, even if this is a trap, we still have three Servants here, so there will be no problem.

Compared to Kenneth's confidence, a hint of worry flashed in Xia Yuan's eyes.

Amakusa Shiro Tokisada, what on earth are you playing at?

Chapter 30: The Masters Gathered Here

——The Cathedral Church.

As time passed, in the vast night, moonlight fell from the night sky and fell on this beautiful building, shining with extraordinary brilliance.

The cross on the roof flickered slightly, turning into a magical beacon, summoning the Masters who would take part in the Holy Grail War.

"Is this where it is?"

Altria, who had already come outside, raised her eyes and looked at the church.

"Come in, Saber. If you need any help, I will support you remotely."

At this moment, the voice of Emiya Kiritsugu was heard from the earphone.

After what happened last night, he was even more afraid to show up now.

Although he had the priest's promise, as an excellent magician killer, he would not trust anyone easily.

All Masters were invited to gather here. Although the priest had told him the truth in advance, he could not guarantee whether every word Amakusa said was true.

If this is a conspiracy, the consequences will be disastrous. After all, this is the church, the territory of these priests. It is too dangerous to enter rashly.

The church is the base of that group of priests, just like the magic workshop is the base of the magicians. Once you enter it, you will become very passive. If Amakusa Shiro sets a trap in advance, the consequences will be disastrous.

Going there in person would be tantamount to betting one's life on Amakusa Shiro's integrity.

He would not trust Amakusa Shiro. Although the plans and aspirations he mentioned were very grand, he was not going to take such a risk.

His seventh sense, which had been wandering on the edge of a knife for many years, reminded him that Amakusa Shiro Tokisada's feelings were very dangerous, no matter from which aspect. Before he saw his true face thoroughly and knew whether this so-called big plan was really feasible, he would not trust him, and he also did not intend to let Irisviel take risks.

So after careful consideration, Kiritsugu Emiya decided to let Artoria enter alone with the monitor, while he would use the communicator to give commands on the other side. Artoria had no objection to this.

"Kiritsugu, they are coming."

Altria turned her head and looked in the direction above the woods in the distance. A powerful magical power was approaching, and the owner of the source of the magical power had no intention of hiding anything.

"The mana of the person who came is very strong and not hidden. It should be Rider. It seems that the other masters will be here soon."

"Rider? I understand, Saber. This is the church. There is no need to confront them head-on. You go into the church first, and follow my instructions for everything that follows."

"it is good."

After the exchange, Altria turned around and entered the church without hesitation.

Just as she said, the mighty wheels in the night sky were ravaging the thunder, and were rapidly approaching here with a sound like muffled thunder.

“Ah! Ah!! Rider, you bastard, you bastard——!!! Please listen to me at least a little! Don’t fly so fast!!! I’m carsick! I’m carsick!!!”

"Hahahahahaha, this is the best speed for driving a chariot across the sky. Hold on tight, we are about to land."

There was a heroic laugh in the sky, and a scream with a hint of crying.

With the sound of Weber's self-esteem being crushed by the Shenwei wheels "click, click", the Shenwei wheels made a perfect emergency landing.

If we don't consider the big trees behind us that were violently smashed by the sacred bull...

After carrying the frightened Weber out of the car, Iskandar looked at the surrounding woods vigilantly and sniffed.

"It's obvious that there is a magical aura. I didn't expect that another group of Servant had arrived before us, kid."

"Hey, have the other Masters arrived yet?"

"It is certain that some people have come, but it is hard to say how many they have," Iskandar analyzed.

"But the teachers haven't arrived yet. Let's wait here for them to join us. I'm a little scared if we go in like this."

Waver couldn't help but shrink his neck when he thought about being in the same room with those scary Servants.

"Ugh……"

Looking at Weber who was already starting to get nervous, Iskandar felt helpless. He tapped his forehead and said dissatisfiedly.

"Kid, what's wrong with you? What's the point of being like this now? Relying on others will only make you more cowardly. If such a small scene can make you so nervous, then how can you talk about proving yourself?"

As he finished speaking, Iskandar's big hand had already reached his forehead.

"it hurts!"

This familiar feeling, and then another familiar development, Waver covered his forehead again.

"Boy, I have always been very good at judging people. You are actually very talented, but your personality is also terrible. This is your biggest flaw."

"So think about it seriously, look at it carefully, and then tell me the answer in the end. What is your choice?"

"Rider..."

After he finished speaking, Iskandar didn't wait for Weber to reply, but pushed open the door of the church with his big hands. Rather than sneaking in quietly as a spirit, he preferred to go in with dignity.

The style of a conquering king.

Push the door open and enter.

What you see is a spacious church. The moonlight shines through the skylight onto the floor, illuminating the figure standing inside.

But there weren't many people, obviously not all of them had arrived yet.

In the spacious church, apart from the young priest standing on the pulpit waiting, there were only three figures scattered around.

One was the somewhat youthful King Arthur whom he had met at the dock before, but her Master didn’t seem to be around, so was she here alone for the appointment?

The other was a middle-aged man sitting on a bench, wearing a red suit, leaning on a cane, and with a neatly trimmed beard, Tousaka Tokiomi.

His manners were very elegant, and he looked like a noble, but again, there was no sign of his Servant around him, probably hiding in the dark.

As for the last one, he should be a member of the church. Kotomine Kirei was wearing pure black clergy clothing and a cross pendant, standing next to Amakusa Shiro.

As the door opened, their eyes also fell on Iskandar and the thin and handsome boy standing next to him.

"Welcome, Rider, and this young magician."

Amakusa Shiro greeted them gently.

"Hello, hello." Weber greeted nervously.

"Sorry, there are still many Masters who have not arrived, so please take a seat and wait for a while."

"Hahaha, it's okay. I'm not in a hurry. But I don't think we need to wait any longer. They're already here."

"Another Servant's presence is approaching..."

Altria spoke up after noticing Finn's familiar presence.

Then everyone followed the line of sight and looked at the trio that appeared at the door again.

Xia Yuan, Kenneth and Finn had enough troops, and it was enough to take Rider and Lancer with them. The Earl was ordered to stay in the magic workshop to prevent other magicians or people from the church from using tricks to steal the house.

Kenneth, who knew in advance that he was at risk of death, acted very calmly.

Not only were many protective measures arranged in the Magic Workshop, but strongholds were also set up in other locations to facilitate relocation.

"Well, this is really surprising. I didn't expect the two of you to come together. Master Caster, have you formed an alliance with Lord El-Melloi?"

Seeing Xia Yuan appear, Toosaka Tokiomi was stunned for a moment, and said in a bad tone that he still remembered how much trouble the gas chain explosion arranged by Xia Yuan had caused him.

"Yes, after all, I am just an ordinary person who was involved in a magic ritual. It is difficult for me to survive without relying on a magician. And it seems that the head of the Tousaka family is not going to let me go. In order to survive, I must choose the most reliable person to rely on, right?"

"At least the price Sir Kenneth wants is something I can afford, but you really want to kill me."

Xia Yuan immediately retorted.

"Is that so... I really underestimated you."

Being ridiculed by an ordinary person in his impression, Tōsaka Tokiomi's eyes suddenly turned unfriendly, and the strength of his right hand holding the cane unconsciously increased a little.

However, Xia Yuan did not feel afraid. They were now in a neutral area. Toosaka Tokiomi would not be so reckless as to openly break the rules and become the target of public criticism in order to deal with him. Besides, Kenneth and Finn were by his side. He did not believe that Toosaka Tokiomi could kill him alone in front of Kenneth.

As a lecturer who protects his own people, Kenneth also cooperated very well and stood beside Xia Yuan, staring at Toosaka Tokiomi with a bad look, supporting him.

Xia Yuan is the talent he has his eyes on and will be absorbed into the El-Melloi family in the future. As a disciple of El-Melloi, it is not his turn to be bullied by a country magician. Does he really think that Kenneth is dead?

"Hmph?" Noticing Kenneth's unfriendly gaze, Toosaka Tokiomi snorted coldly and wisely chose to shut up.

Because he was worried that Gilgamesh might cause trouble, he did not inform him and came here alone. It was not appropriate to conflict with Kenneth now.

After the bickering, Xia Yuan did not forget to ask Kotomine Kirei and Amakusa Shiro: "Master Supervisor, I remember that if someone takes action in the Holy Church, it is against the rules, right?"

"Yes, fighting is not allowed in the neutral area where the Holy Church is located, so please restrain yourselves."

Sensing the gradually unfriendly atmosphere around him, Amakusa Shiro smiled helplessly.

After looking around and feeling that most people had arrived, the young priest stood on the steps, stepped forward, his pale hair glowing slightly in the bright moonlight, and began his speech.

"It seems that the masters who are supposed to come are now gathered here, so let's get down to business."

The young priest's voice was gentle and echoed in the church.

Under the guidance of the supervisor, these masters who were supposed to be hostile to each other gathered in this church for a rare occasion.

Although there was no smoke or fire, the atmosphere was extremely depressing.

Tōsaka Tokiomi frowned and looked around in confusion. Where was his old friend Kotomine Ri? Why did the supervisor become the young man Amakusa Shiro? What happened? And what did he want to do by summoning all the masters?

Looking at Shiro Amakusa who was about to start his speech at the podium, he felt more and more uneasy.

Of course, all the Masters present, except Xia Yuan, were as puzzled as Tōsaka Tokiomi about Amakusa Shiro's behavior.

Xia Yuan knew him very well that [Ruler] was the leader of the Shimabara Rebellion, the sad saint of Christianity - Amakusa Shiro Tokisada, who, for some reason, appeared in this world line where he should not exist.

If the Servant summoned by the Einzbern family sixty years ago was Amakusa Shiro Tokisada, then the Holy Grail of the Fourth War would not have contained the evil of this world, but would have been the perfect Grail of Heaven.

However, the Cave King, who is also an Avenger, is naturally very clear about the evil aura of this world of Angra Mainyu, who is also an Avenger, and he will never make a mistake.

So he was very sure that the Holy Grail this time was still the contaminated black cup, so what happened to Amakusa Shiro? Not only did he get a body, but he also joined the Holy Church for further training like in another world line and became a supervisor.

So, who summoned Amakusa Shiro in the last Holy Grail War?
