Why fight the Holy Grail War? Let's play cards!

Chapter 351: The Second Duel Tournament, but Tiamat is also here.

"You actually have such abilities? Is this pan-human history? It's different from what I imagined. I thought your world would be more powerful, like your mother."

Bagzi, dressed in armor, appeared on the timeline of the fifth Holy Grail following Jiang You's summons. Since the qualifiers for the second Duel Tournament had already begun, Jiang You simply summoned all the Heroic Spirits he could. Anyway, the existence of Heroic Spirits was no stranger to them here.

Yao Lan was among them. She had already lost to Jiang You in the previous battle, and she easily filled up three basic character cards. However, Jiang You never got the subsequent cards, so his favorability was basically unimportant.

In short, Morgan's three fairy knights were all abducted by Jiang You, but Morgan didn't care about it now. She was now powerful enough to control all of Britain on her own. She gave Yao Gao and Yao Lan names to stabilize the disaster before it broke out, and gave Yao Lan names to enhance her strength and protect her. She didn't want their combat power at all.

"Tiamat doesn't even exist here. Pan-human history is very fragile!"

Yao Cui directly inserted (?) in between Jiang You and Bagzi, "And why did you summon her as well? What's so good about a woman with a brain full of muscles? Let her go back and fight Morse!"

"And please stay away from my partner."

Bagzi was not willing to be outdone. Jiang You had proposed to him, so it was Yao Cui who should leave.

"You fake son of prophecy!"

Because she was not in Britain, the kingdom of fairies, Bagzi didn't have to consider the overall situation at all. She directly exposed the fairy Cui's past.

"so what!"

Yao Cui is no longer the powder keg that could explode at any time. She learned how to be thick-skinned from a certain golden guy.

"Jiang You chose to give me this right, which naturally means that I am more important to him. I don't have the habit of sharing my belongings with others, so I can only let you withdraw."

"Want to fight?"

Bagzi glanced at the passersby and cast a questioning look at Jiang You. Even though the people around him weren't of his own race or even fairies, Bagzi still felt the need to be considerate of the weaker ones. As for Yao Cui's combat power, while it had improved, it was still far from Bagzi's match. However, Yao Cui clearly had no intention of using combat power to solve this problem.

"She's trying to trick you."

Jiang You glanced at the side quest that suddenly popped up, asking him to choose one or say "You are both my wings" to both of them. Jiang You simply turned it off because he felt something was amiss with Yao Cui's previous interlude, and at least he couldn't respond so simply.

"Fuyuki's battles will all be transformed into duels, and you'll definitely be no match for her if you use cards."

Jiang You felt things were getting a bit complicated. Wasn't it natural for players to have a favorable impression of their own cards? Balancing the relationships between the characters was a bit of a hassle. He wondered how Gudako would manage with at least a hundred people around her in the future. What a master of time management.

"Asshole! You're taking sides, huh?"

Yao Cui pounced on Jiang You and was about to touch him, but was stopped by Yao Lan.

"What? You, a sinner, want to get involved too?"

Yao Lan's eyes were dull, a state she hadn't had since sending Aurora into the swamp. She simply felt Yao Cui's actions were pointless. Jiang You clearly had no intention of responding, and as his servant, she felt it was only natural for her to fulfill some of her duties. He seemed to want it all, and Yao Lan understood his sentiment.

"It's natural for powerful creatures to dominate lower creatures. You and Gawain are both his property. So, there's no need to fight anymore."

Bagzi almost instantly agreed with Yaolan's statement. Both sides' thinking leaned more towards the wild side. She walked obediently to Jiang You's side.

"?"

Yao Cui couldn't understand the two people's thinking, she was a possessive person.

"No, are you serious?"

"My body now completely belongs to him. There is no room for resistance."

Yao Lan unconsciously said some outrageous words, although a large part of them were true.

"Wait for me a moment."

Jiang You also felt that this topic was a bit awkward. Yao Lan had no concept of shame, and she didn't deliberately lower her voice when she spoke, so passersby heard her and cast all kinds of glances at her, some with surprise, some with disdain, and some with envy. Even though they were all just NPCs, it made Jiang You feel a little stressed.

"Except for the Aurora incident, I've never given you any orders against your will. Can you please stop using that term?"

"But you've already taken away my most important thing (Aurora). You've already done something so outrageous, so I won't mind any orders from you. Don't worry about me resisting."

"stop!"

This would only make things worse. Jiang You interrupted again. He had pulled them out this time to let them relax, not to play Galgame. "Since you're all so energetic, why don't you participate in this year's duel tournament? The reward is a soul crystal, which is very valuable."

"Soul crystal?"

Morgan likes this thing very much, and Yao Cui naturally will not miss this opportunity.

"Don't think you can get away with changing the subject. I'm going to make you give me an answer. How about adding a condition? If I win, you have to promise me one thing unconditionally."

Yao Cui was very aggressive, and Jiang You probably guessed what she was referring to. But with Tiamat also participating in this tournament, Yao Cui actually had no chance at all.

"Okay, I agree, but the bet can't be made by only one person. What if you lose?"

"Humph, you shameless guy."

Yao Cui snorted coldly.

"If I lose, I'll accept this large dog! You don't want me to accept everyone, do you? I haven't settled the score with you for what happened to you, the little Master!"

Yao Cui still didn't see Yao Lan as a threat. Because Jiang You's actions against Aurora were completely unforgivable to Yao Lan, Yao Cui naturally had no competitiveness. To her, Yao Lan was no different from Jiang You's slave.

"I'll join in if you want."

Although he didn't understand the value of the soul crystal, since Jiang You had spoken, Bagzi supported it 100%.

"Actually, you can make a request."

Because Bagzi was so well-behaved, Jiang You felt a little embarrassed.

"You certainly won't make any excessive demands, so there's no need to place any bets."

Anyway, with Ti Ma as the finale, the champion is basically decided.

"I'm not really interested... If you want me to participate, you can give me the order."

This is Yao Lan’s answer.

Chapter 352: The Eve of the Second Duel Competition.

"Are you a mission master?"

Now it seems that Yao Lan will not move without orders. In fact, Jiang You can just order her to be happy. No matter what she thinks in her heart, she will appear normal on the surface. It's just too cruel.

"Well, like them, if you win the championship, I'll also agree to one of your requests. Of course, as long as I can do it."

"Then..."

Yao Lan instantly lit up, and Jiang You could tell what she wanted to say just by using his toes.

"You're always thinking about other people."

It's a shame that Aurora didn't produce a card called [Brainwash]. "You are forbidden to mention anything about Aurora's request."

"You're still harboring evil intentions. I'm telling you, don't even think about it!"

Yao Cui tapped Yao Lan's chest. She could understand Yao Lan's feelings for Aurora, but she felt that her feelings for Morgan would not be inferior to hers. If she could not let Aurora die so easily, she would not have let Aurora still be alive.

"It's a great blessing that traitors like you can still operate outside like this. Please stop dreaming."

"Then I have no request."

Yaolan's eyes returned to their lifeless state.

"There's still a long time before the trials. Let me give you the next order."

Jiang You had no idea what to do with Yao Lan in this state. The Yao Lan in Chaldea had completely severed ties with Aurora, having said goodbye to her personally. The Yao Lan here hadn't. "Go find what you want. No one here knows you. No one will label you a disaster and shun you. Just think about yourself for a moment."

Because it is in the form of an order, Yaolan will definitely obey.

"If you just want me to participate, there's no need to go through so much trouble."

Yao Lan didn't understand why Jiang You did this. She had no room to resist, and there was no need to beat around the bush when giving orders.

"It's different. What you desire for yourself is completely different from what I command you to desire."

In fact, Jiang You didn't really understand what Yao Lan wanted. She had a twisted sexual fetish of liking to be a lover, but what could Jiang You find to satisfy her? So this sentence was actually perfunctory.

After helping the three demons get some clothes that were more suitable for modern times, Jiang You let them move freely. Since Dongmu was under the supervision of several powerful gods, he wasn't worried about any trouble.

When they returned to Einzbern Castle, where Ilya was, Rin Tohsaka had been waiting there for a long time. Invitations to the second Duel Tournament had already been sent out to all corners of the world, and as the manager, she couldn't just sit back and do nothing. She had come to help Jiang You plan a venue, as the things from the other world no longer needed to be hidden in Fuyuki, and this Duel could be held in the city center.

However, when she came here, she saw Ai Lei, whose only difference from her was her hair color.

"You, you, you...what are you doing!?"

She initially assumed Elle was an android created by the Einzberns. With their technology, customizing her appearance would be easy. She even suspected that Jiang You and Ilya were tired of having to inform her about everything and were planning to get rid of her secretly.

Although it does not conform to the normal people's concept, this behavior is quite consistent with the magician's thinking circuit.

"Huh? She's the child who served as our container back then?"

Ailei also discovered the identity of Toosaka Rin. There was still some of Ishtar's aura remaining on Toosaka Rin's body. Although it was very weak, it could not escape the eyes of her old enemy.

“It’s the first time I feel the world is so small.”

"You're going to feel like the world is a smaller place."

Jiang You said that there are too many well-known male and female actors in Type-Moon. When the whole world and the parallel world are combined, it will only be the same few faces.

"Rin, don't be nervous. This is the Mesopotamian goddess Ereshkigal. You can just call her Ere."

"Can you come up with a decent excuse?"

Toosaka Rin was speechless. "In this era, there are no conditions to support the manifestation of gods. Even if it is a servant, this close to the main god level cannot be summoned easily. Besides, how can the gods of Mesopotamia look exactly like me?"

Toosaka Rin didn't have much contact with Jiang You. She only knew that Jiang You had the ability to pull out other Heroic Spirits, but she didn't know Jiang You's specific situation.

"The Indian love god next door looks just like Sakura, even though he's also in a suit."

The main reason is that the Servants of the Moon World often use the borrowed body trick, and we probably won't see what their true forms look like in this lifetime. In short, the three great families are a must-try part of the Type-Moon World.

"Why does it feel like they're leveraging the character's popularity to increase sales?"

Toosaka Rin didn't know what she was talking about. Since she couldn't understand it, she simply skipped the topic.

"Let's not talk about this anymore. Tell me the details later. I came to talk to you about the second Duel Tournament. You're handing out invitations without even preparing anything? The venue hasn't even been set up yet, and now those magicians have come to me to find out what's going on. I'm going to charge you for this! No, I'm going to charge you money!"

"Are you so short of money?"

You know, after a certain priest died, a large part of the property that originally belonged to the Toosaka family returned to Toosaka Rin's hands. Toosaka Rin should not have to worry about money anymore.

"Don't you get a share of the Duel Tournament's broadcast fees?"

"That's not enough! I mean, I can't just work for you for nothing. They all think I'm your agent!"

Jiang You often travels to other worlds. Of course, Jiang You's nominal master, Ilya, would not care about these things, so only Toosaka Rin came to receive him and explain things.

"And have you arranged the schedule and venue?! There are at least a thousand magicians gathered in Fuyuki right now, and a conservative estimate is that there are hundreds more on the way."

"By the way, because you, Jiang You, didn't send invitations to some of the established families, some magicians are dissatisfied."

The speaker was a red-haired lady in a suit. Unexpectedly, Bazette had also arrived. Because she had participated in the Holy Grail War, she had been sent here as a liaison with the Clock Tower for this tournament.

"So, those magicians who didn't receive invitations have started snatching invitations from others. Recently, the rate of magicians being killed has increased tenfold compared to usual."

"From what you said, it seems like the survival rate of magicians isn't that high, is it?"

Jiang You couldn't help but complain.

"By the way, where is Ti Ma?"

353

Chapter 353: As long as there are no accidents, there will be no accidents.

After Ti Ma came to the timeline of the Fifth War, Jiang You often couldn't find her.

By the way, Minamoto no Raikou doesn't deal well with Tiamat, mainly because their positions are repeated. She always feels that Tiamat will snatch Ilia from her, but she doesn't know that she is also a child in Tiamat's eyes.

"You mean the girl with the big horns?"

Tima is usually quite active, and with her unique appearance, passersby can immediately tell she's extraordinary. In Fuyuki City, it's now quite common for duelists to win their opponents' cards by dueling. Of course, Medea's model shop now also offers a card exchange service, allowing duelists to trade cards.

For example, there's a card that's incredibly popular among office workers. [Working Overtime]: Once per turn, pay half your life points and draw two cards. It's a Pot of Greed that requires you to pay life points. While the source is simple, the effect is quite good.

Some magicians or ordinary people with some strength would also try to challenge Servants, because the strength of the cards they possessed was quite high for them. And Tima was a person who accepted everyone, so Tōsaka Rin had heard of it long ago.

"Her name is Tiamat? What an amazing name."

Toosaka Rin has an extensive knowledge of mythology, which was originally prepared for the Holy Grail War, and now it comes in handy.
