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

"As I mentioned before, it's most likely Illya from 'Magical Girl Illya'."

The term "Dream Summoning" already explains a lot of problems. To be honest, the Holy Grail system there is more suitable for the card classification of Yu-Gi-Oh.

"Magical girl, that kind of thing from anime, how could that be possible? I'm just an ordinary elementary school student."

Illya (hereinafter referred to as Moyi, also known as Illya when appearing alone) in the battle area replied weakly. She was still struggling with her outfit and was so anxious that she was about to cry. A layer of mist had already formed in her eyes. "So, can you please give me a piece of clothing? Please!"

Illya was sure that the guy here was definitely not herself. Although she would be shy because of being too exposed, she would never look so soft.

It was like a side quest that could increase favorability, so Jiang You took off his coat and threw it to Mo Yi.

"Thanks……"

Moyi put on Jiang You's coat. Due to the huge height difference, the tuxedo hung loosely on Moyi's body like a cloak.

Jiang Youli got a card related to the magical girl Illya locally, a very small one, which increased his favorability, but not much.

"Illya from the parallel world..."

Toosaka Rin wasn't too surprised, because the Toosaka family had inherited some of the Jewelmonger's magic and were familiar with the performance of Jewelmonger's second method. The appearance of Illya with a different personality was completely reasonable. "She's so polite, not like the one we have here at all. But are you really not kidding me about magical girls?"

If the female magicians over there were called magical girls, Rin Tousaka couldn't imagine what she would be like if she were a magical girl. She quickly dismissed this terrifying possibility from her mind. At her age, how could she still act like a little girl who hadn't grown up? A magical girl like Rin Tousaka was simply impossible.

"Don't you know anything about magical girls?"

Although the name "Magical Girl" was coined by some frivolous old man out of personal preference, it's actually a magic costume. But Moyi should have accepted the name long ago. Jiang You guessed the reason, "It seems to be Illya before the story begins."

Moyi looked around curiously, and she soon saw Shirou Emiya lying on the ground.

"elder brother!"

She worriedly wanted to check on Emiya Shirou, but due to the rules of the duel, she couldn't stray too far from her combat zone. She then realized that almost everyone around her was wearing strange clothing, and some even carried weapons. The materials reflected the gleam of metal, clearly not props.

Add to that the scars left on Shirou Emiya's chest from the surgery, and Moyi's little head had already imagined a plot of about 100,000 words. Her legs were already shaking. "Could it be that you... are kidnappers?! If you want a ransom, Illya can do it alone. Can you..."

"You should at least take a look at what's in your head."

Illya nodded her head, she felt that she was so naive that it was a little silly.

"Jiang You's Noble Phantasm should have stuffed the knowledge into your head. If you had paid a little attention, you wouldn't have asked this question. And I don't acknowledge this guy as my family. Besides, even in terms of seniority, I should be the older sister!"

Illya still cares a lot about her family status.

"Eh?"

Moyi turned her head in surprise. In her mind, Emiya Shirou, already a high school student, was much older than her, so it was perfectly fine that he was her brother. She was also curious why the person behind her was answering the question from her perspective.

Then Moyi saw Illya, who looked exactly like herself, and her brain went into a brief blackout.

"I understand! This is a dream!"

Moyi quickly convinced himself.

"How about we drop this topic?"

Illya felt that there was no need to dwell on this issue anymore. It would be better to let this innocent girl return to her own world.

"Enter the combat stage!"

"If you encounter any difficulties, you can try to ask me for help, and I will definitely help you."

Jiang You knew he was nearing the end. The effects of the cards in his graveyard were blocked by [Illya (Mountain Elder)], and his only backfield card was ineffective. So he called out to Mo Yi, trying to open a new dungeon in a similar way to how Illya served as the key to the Fifth Holy Grail War. If Dog K had done it.

After all, magical girls are so tempting. Jiang You means that the effect of being able to melt the opponent's cards is too tempting.

"what?"

Moyi didn't know how to respond to such a nonsensical question. She looked at Jiang You, wondering why he appeared in her dream. Other characters like Matou Sakura, her brother Emiya Shirou, and herself all had traces of their connection. But she had no idea about Jiang You, Minamoto no Raikou, and Medusa.

"Um... why? And who are you?"

Seeing Jiang You actually using the same rhetoric to seduce her other-world self right in front of her, Illya was furious: "You bastard!!! I'm going to kill you today! [Illya (Mountain Old Man)] directly attacked Jiang You!"

4000 field attack is enough to scare people to death in the dark game.

"Is his name Jiang You?"

Mo Yi felt that Jiang You had at least helped her, so she still had a slight fondness for him. And even if she didn't have a fondness for him, it was still beyond her ability to hit someone.

"Forget about the attack. Illya, I... ahhhhhh???"

But how could a servant in the combat area of ​​a duel disobey the orders of the main combatant? Moyi only saw herself engulfed in flames, and she came in front of Jiang You in a way that she could not understand at all.

"Get away, get away quickly!"

Mo Yi had no idea where he'd gotten the strength to swing such a massive sword. The sword, blazing with blue flames, slashed from Jiang You's left neck all the way to his right waist. A blazing blue flame burned fiercely over the wound, enough to split Jiang You in two.

"Whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!"

Moyibi Jiangyou screamed first.

Jiangyou LP 1050 → LP 0!

Illya wins!

"I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry!"

The feeling of cutting flesh with his own hands made Moyi so frightened that his face turned pale.

Because the duel was over, Moyi's existence began to dissipate. She cried and apologized, and then as the duel space was lifted, she returned to her own world.

Chapter 170 Now Illya becomes the Duel King.

"I'm sorry! I didn't want this!"

Illya woke up in her crib with a start and sat up abruptly. Her small chest heaved violently, the sensation all too real.

"It is indeed a dream."

Illya carefully wiped the sweat from her forehead. She could clearly feel the sweat soaking through her pajamas, making her whole body sticky. She prepared to take a shower. "Guess I'll have to watch less anime from now on. Magical girls and all that bizarre stuff..."

But when Illya lifted the quilt, she saw the Victorian-style dress she was wearing. She touched the dress in disbelief and then pulled her face.

"Eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!"

Illya's screams echoed throughout the house.

Jiang You lay on the ground, his eyes fixed on the sky. He had adjusted the pain level to the lowest setting before Mo Yi attacked, but even so, he still felt the pain like a blunt knife cutting flesh. This made him suspect that Konami was trying to kill the player.

The reaction of the magical girl Illya was also very interesting. She was the one who was chopping people, but she showed a very cute expression: "I hope that Illya won't suffer any psychological trauma from this."

"At this point, your mind is full of other people. Although it's all Illya, she is her and I am me. Say to her again what you said to me. Do you still have me, your Master, in your heart?"

Illya stepped on Jiang You's chest, but with her weight, the force didn't have much impact.

"Although I know that you want her card, your attitude still makes me uncomfortable! From now on, you can only be my Servant!"

In fact, if Jiang You had to choose one, he felt that he preferred the innocent magical girl Illya. Of course, he couldn't say that out loud.

Seeing Jiang You nodding repeatedly, Illya finally let him go: "Okay, don't lie on the ground anymore. You still need to take care of the aftermath of things here. Hurry up and announce to the whole of Fuyuki that I am the winner!"

Apart from Jiang You's affairs, Illya's wish is to see her mother again. She plans to let Jiang You take Minamoto no Raikou out for a walk after finishing all the things here. After all, Jiang You is more familiar with modern society than herself, and then she can spend some time with her mother.

"No... there's no need to announce it. In fact, the whole of Fuyuki knows about it."

Toosaka Rin turned sideways, revealing the camera behind her.

"This duel was broadcast live a long time ago. Of course, when Hassan, who looked like Berserker, appeared, this Hundred Faces also knelt down. I don't know how much footage was captured."

"Huh? When did this... start?"

Illya suddenly looked reserved.

"It started when you grabbed Jiang You, right?"

Toosaka Rin showed a malicious smile. Nothing good had happened to her since Jiang You appeared. Seeing Illya in distress was a rare opportunity, so she seized it. "Now the whole of Fuyuki knows your attitude towards Jiang You - I want you to be my Servant for life!"

"No! I want to use him..."

Illya knew her previous words weren't very convincing. Initially, she'd only held that view, but now, reflecting on it, she'd inadvertently had a different thought. Her face flushed as red as Moyi's before. "And this guy, full of lies, is nothing good!"

"Isn't he allowed to lie to you now? Do you want to try and find out what he really thinks?"

Toosaka Rin looked like she was enjoying the fun. She knew she would be incredibly busy in the coming days, so she took the time to have some fun.

Illya looked at Jiang You. She was indeed very tempted, but she didn't forget that she was still on the live broadcast. She didn't want to say those words in front of everyone. So she said stubbornly: "His thoughts are not important. Let's deal with the duel competition first."

At this time, the host Baimao stood in the center with the microphone. She looked at Illya back and forth, and then as if she had made up her mind, she nodded to Jiang You.

Before Jiang You could understand what she meant, Bai Mao said, "Let us congratulate Illya, the contestant from Iinzbern, for her victory! After overcoming numerous obstacles, she defeated all the contestants and earned the title of 'Duel King'!"

"By the way, while she won the ultimate prize, the invaluable Soul Crystal, she also won away our sponsor! Spectators, don't rush to call the police. Not only is Illya an adult, but she also took the initiative..."

"Stop it!"

Illya's face turned even redder, like a cooked crab. Even when she was eating mapo tofu, it hadn't reached this level. She didn't know if it was out of shame or anger. She immediately ordered Minamoto no Raikou to attack, "Minamoto no Raikou, kill her!"

Minamoto no Raikou looked at Illya. How could she, who called herself a mother, not understand what Illya really meant? She sighed heavily, pretended to attack, and rushed towards the Hundred Faces without even using the Purple Lightning.

Soon, the next Baimao took over the host's job, "Dear audience, I'm Baimao. The previous me is being hunted by Minamoto no Raikou, but it doesn't matter, we still have enough manpower..."

While the scene was in chaos, Jiang You also found Medea.

Just like Illya said, now that the Fuyuki Duel has become urbanized, we do have to deal with some follow-up matters, such as how to obtain cards. Although it is not possible to directly make cards like in the orthodox Yu-Gi-Oh story, we can increase the number of cards we own by increasing our own experience.

Perhaps learning magic and making friends could also be ways to increase the power of your cards. The appearance of the Host's Hundred Faces card is a prime example. Jiang You intends to have Medea permanently reside in this scenario while running a model shop and exploring the rules of this card-printing game. When ordinary people pulled out the rather humorous cards from the Fourth Holy Grail War, Jiang You felt that the cards here didn't seem specially designed, but rather randomly generated, which was very interesting.

Incidentally, he had also seen a Cicada card in the mail a while ago, along with its accompanying Spell Card, Nymph Three Years. It was quite humorous, requiring a special summon of the Cicada card from the deck three turns after activation, a card with ridiculously low stats. Even more humorous than the Insect Queen's appearance requirements.

Jiang You is still very curious about what will become of Fuyuki in the future.

171

Chapter 171 Since the script is not open, I will force my way in.

Jiang You opened the game as usual. The script of the Fifth Holy Grail War had come to an end yesterday, but he still had not received any notification that the collaboration had ended. After asking the customer service, he was told that he had not yet fully experienced it.

Jiang You found a corner of the world of the fifth battle and began to look through his inventory idly. He wanted to find the card "Old Man of the Mountain" because he had summoned it in battle, but he couldn't find it in his inventory.

"So how did this [Sound the Death Knell] pull out Wang Ha..."

Jiang You picked up the card and looked it over. This game system was a bit obscure, and the beginner's guide was quite poor.

"And how can I get Wang Ha's cards?"

Having used all the powerful cards, but not being able to hold them in my hands, that itchy feeling is like a cat scratching. Jiang You pondered the summoning method: "By the way, Wang Ha's appearance coincides with the sixth chapter of the first part of FGO, and the same time as the Little Eggplant was summoned earlier. Speaking of Little Eggplant's card, it seems Lancelot also has it?"

Matthew is different from most summoned Heroic Spirits, as he was pulled from a separate timeline. Therefore, there is room for manipulation.

Regardless of whether Dog K had made any related connections, Jiang You felt it was necessary to try. He stood up and ran towards where Lancelot was.

"Ahrrrrrr?"

Lancelot, who was clumsily and carefully painting Matthew's body model in Medea Model Shop, was pulled out by Jiang You.

Lancelot had spent a lot of time helping Medea get this model, and he treasured it in every way. It was hard for Lancelot to express his feelings clearly to Medea in his frenzied state.

"Stop talking nonsense, let's duel!"

“Ahrrrrrr??”

"I'll see if I can help your child. No, not Galahad, but Matthew."

“Ahrrrrrr!!!”

"This is the Temple of Azrael... but there's nothing special about it..."

When Gudako stepped into the temple, Dr. Roman sent a message through.

It is hard to imagine that there are such carefully carved temples on top of such a deserted and steep mountain.

Everywhere you look, you'll see delicate reliefs. The angel sculptures standing on both sides embrace the skull with a compassionate look, which is both holy and terrifying.

"No, doctor... This is a heavy pressure that cannot be felt unless you are present... There is no reaction from magic or servants, and no reaction from life, but, but I can't help but tremble all over..."

Mashu hugged her arms across her chest. She felt a little cold, but as a sub-servant, her body should not feel this way in such an environment.

Matthew didn't know that this was a chill from her soul. Her soul was resisting staying in this temple.

"Keep going, Master Fujimaru Ritsuka. Ahead lies the territory of the First Generation, unknown even to us. It's impossible to predict what will happen, so please maintain maximum vigilance—"

Hassan of the Cursed Arm warned everyone, but it was too late. The invisible attack had already fallen towards Fujimaru Ritsuka. It was impossible to observe, but the fear of death made all the servants present feel their scalps tingle. Matthew instinctively raised his shield to block Fujimaru Ritsuka.
