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

"Then let me start first!"

Ritsuka Fujimaru looked at the five cards in his hand with a very curious expression.

"They are all Servants I've met before. What amazing Noble Phantasms!"

"By the way, Mr. Jiang You, how did you get to know Matthew? Matthew never mentioned you before."

During this gap, Gudako expressed her doubts to Jiang You. The helper that Matthew mentioned before was obviously Jiang You, but after arriving at the singularity, Matthew had been with her all the time, so he should not have had the chance to get to know Jiang You.

"I was summoned by Mr. Jiang You's Noble Phantasm before. The owner was Lancelot, and he was with Mr. Jiang You at the time."

Matthew immediately explained that she didn't want Fujimaru-senpai to misunderstand her.

"Lancelot?"

Xuanzang was alert, knowing that the Knights of the Round Table were their enemies here.

"Are you from the Lion King's side too? No, that's not right. Your name should mean you're from the same place as me. Your Noble Phantasm is so amazing, it should be very famous, but I haven't heard of your name."

"It's not that Lancelot. Mr. Jiang You is in a very modern city. Although you may not understand what I'm saying, I'm sure you know what I'm talking about, senior."

Matthew helped Jiang You explain so that everyone wouldn't regard him as an enemy.

"It's just that Mr. Jiang You, we haven't prepared the summoning ceremony yet, why did you come here directly?"

"I thought the summoning ritual had already been prepared... It seems that the way I manifest is similar, the Holy Grail itself correcting the world and summoning a Servant."

In fact, Jiang You saw an additional Fate Grand Order scenario option and clicked it to enter. He said this just to make it easier for others to understand.

"It doesn't matter. The result will be the same. I'm here to help you! Then, I'll have to trouble Miss Fujimaru to be my Master."

"Just call me Lixiang."

Gudako was quite familiar with the situation. "Then it's time to start the battle. I'll Normal Summon myself first!"

【Fujimaru Ritsuka】

1-star Master has an attack power of 500.

"[Fujimaru Ritsuka]'s effect allows you to Special Summon any Servant from your Deck!"

"!"

Jiang You could only say, "Wow, this guy's effects are a bit too much! There's not even any limit to his special recruitment. He's not even pretending." He truly deserves to be the strongest Master in the human race. He can perfectly match with any Heroic Spirit. He has developed a desire for Gudako. I mean, a desire to collect it.

"I want to Special Summon——[Da Vinci]!"

"?"

Jiang You asked, "Why did you summon such a strange thing? Let's bring some big monsters."

174

Chapter 174: Gudako doesn’t have a stuck hand.

"I want to Special Summon——[Da Vinci]!"

It was a world-famous painting - "Mona Lisa's Smile". The character in the painting came to life, stretched out his hands from the frame, squeezed himself out of the painting, and fell into the scene.

Leonardo da Vinci

Caster 6 stars, attack power 2200.

Seeing her deceased companion again, tears welled up in Gudako's eyes: "Dear Da Vinci! It's so great to see you! This treasure can even pull you, who have already sacrificed yourself, here. Go with peace of mind, your last wish..."

"Wait a minute, I'm not dead yet! As an omnipotent being, Da Vinci-kun has a backup plan even if he really dies~☆" Da Vinci scratched her head awkwardly. She had indeed prepared to sacrifice herself before, but her emotions had been brewing to that point, but she didn't die. It was just that she couldn't reunite with Gudako now, so she comforted him, "I think we'll be able to meet again soon."

"So... you pull Dabi..."

Jiang You called out the profiteer's nickname in a sly manner, but realizing that this matter was related to his favorability, he immediately changed his words and asked, "Did Da Vinci come out just to see her?"

"Not entirely."

After knowing that Da Vinci-kun was fine, Gudako's expression was obviously much lighter, "Da Vinci-kun is also the strongest servant in my deck."

"The strongest?"

Jiang You tilted his head. Considering Gudako's situation, it wouldn't be surprising if she could use her effects to pull out any monster from the deck. She might even be able to shock people with a little Beast right now. Furthermore, even the servants she encountered in the first five chapters were quite powerful. Da Vinci probably wouldn't even be ranked there. It was a bit questionable for her to even say "strongest."

"Who's in your deck?"

Gudako didn't play any tricks and answered directly: "There are quite a few, Matthew, Jeanne d'Arc, Kiyohime, Elizabeth Bathory..."

Gudako called out a series of servant names like the names of dishes. Jiang You found that they were all servants that had established bonds with him in the previous main storyline, and there was not a single future servant. It seemed that Gudako here seemed to have been nerfed. However, even if there were no future servants, the number of servants now was very terrifying. Would it really not be a problem if they were in the same deck?

"What about the Cave King?"

Jiang You thought of a certain freeloader. This guy had been active in both the main and side quests. He had even lived in Gudako's heart, so how could he not come?

"Hey, Mr. Jiang You, do you know the Earl?"

At this point in time, the Rock King had not officially appeared in front of other people, and Gudako still thought that she was the only one who knew of the existence of the Rock King.

"Although the Count is indeed stronger in terms of attack power, Da Vinci himself will not lose!"

He is definitely an expert at keeping things balanced.

"Da Vinci's effect: She's skilled at crafting various costumes and items. Therefore, when a Super Summon or Special Summon is successful, flip two cards from the top of your deck, add the flipped Spell or Trap cards to your hand, and send the Servant cards to the Graveyard."

"Of course, this isn't without side effects. At the end of the round, you need to remove cards from your hand and add an equal number of cards to your hand."

Leonardo added, "After all, the materials used are very expensive."

In addition to the effect mentioned by Gudako, Jiang You also saw another effect of [Da Vinci], which is that when it is destroyed and sent to the graveyard by a battle destruction effect, a [Leonardo da Vinci (Rider)] will be added from the deck to the hand or special summoned to the field, which is the little Da Vinci.

Little Da Vinci has always been kept in Chaldea, so it is not a future event, and it is reasonable for him to appear here.

So Jiang You watched helplessly as Gudako flipped out two magic and trap cards, replenishing her hand to 6. This bond was truly amazing, and Jiang You felt that even without him, Gudako would still be able to kill her way through the scene.

"Next, I activate the Spell Card [Roman Succession] to Special Summon a Level 4 or lower Servant called the King of Rome from my Deck. May the Flower of Rome bloom here! Special Summon [Nero Claudius]."

【Nero】Attack power 1800.

Amidst the roses, the red swordsman entered the stage, dancing and singing like an opera singer.

Her beautiful face was incompatible with her singing voice, which was enough to cause mental pollution. Jiang You suspected that if he hadn't been in the middle of a duel, he might have received an invitation to a duel.

"Now I roughly understand how Wukong felt when the golden hoop curse was recited to him."

Xuanzang complained quietly.

"Hmm, I've seen this Noble Phantasm before."

Nero looked back cautiously and relaxed when she found that it was not the God Ancestor Romulus. She did not dare to speak casually in front of the God Ancestor.

"It's you, Ritsuka. It seems you've also encountered that Servant. That's good, I can help you this way. Are those two guys with black energy your opponents? Leave it to me!"

"I feel relieved with Your Majesty the Emperor here. And the famous Servant you mentioned is right beside me."

Gudako shows her true nature as a socialite.

"It's you."

Nero looked at Jiang You. She had a very favorable impression of him because of their previous experience. "You deserve a reward for letting me meet the Divine Ancestor and our ancestors! If there is a chance for us to meet in other ways, you can ask me for a reward. The Emperor of Rome will never break his promise!"

"I won't be polite then."

For Jiang You, Nero's words were enough. As long as he found the corresponding script, the Roman deck would be ready.

Seeing that Jiang You had no intention of refusing, Nero nodded with satisfaction. She hated arguing with others the most, and this straightforward personality was exactly what she wanted.

Gudako waited for the two to finish their conversation before continuing her own actions: "I activate the effect of [Nero]. When it is successfully Normal Summoned or Special Summoned, I add a Continuous Magic Card [Golden Theater] from my deck to my hand!"

Then, the Golden Theater rose from under everyone's feet. In the golden light, rose petals filled the sky and slowly fell in the fragrant breeze.

"Activate [Golden Theater]! This card requires [Nero] to be on the field to activate. While this card is on the field, Roman servants cannot be destroyed by battle. [Nero]'s attack and defense increase by 1000!"

[Nero] Attack damage increased from 1800 to 2800.

"Mmm, that's the feeling. Let me show my skills! Ritsuka, remember to give me a round of applause."

"Your Majesty, are you interested in donning that pure white wedding dress once again? Show us your most beautiful side."

Gudako was not worried that Nero would misunderstand her meaning, because Nero was a willful servant, and whether she would wear a wedding dress was just a matter of whether she wanted to.

"Um, is there any need to ask?"

Nero naturally would not refuse.

Only then did Jiang You realize that Gudako was still adjusting her servant.

175

Chapter 175: Doubles players, remember to leave backcourt space for your teammates.

"The conditions are [Nero Claudius] + 1-star Synchronous Servant! 4 + 1 = 5! I will synchronize [Nero] and [Fujimaru Ritsuka] here! The spring sun shines, flowers dance! The May breeze caresses my cheeks, and blessings spread to the distant planets - open, Golden Wedding Hall! Synchro Summon [Nero Claudius [Hayabi]]"

The petals floating in the Golden Theater turned into white roses, and the primordial fire in Nero's hand also followed this atmosphere, changing the blade from red to silver.

The Servant dressed in a pure white wedding dress descended amidst the ringing of happy bells.

Nero (Bride)

5* Saber's attack power increased from 2000 to 3000.

"Ohhh... this is the pinnacle of Rome, the most beautiful battle bride costume on earth! Yu and Ru are truly imposing!"

Nero looked at her wedding dress and hummed a song with satisfaction. She wore the wedding dress not to get married, but to show her "beauty".

"Hmmmm, the more blessing bells the better."

"No matter what, the words wedding dress and battle don't really go together."

Xuanzang complained that she thought this matter was too outrageous.

"And is it considered a provocation to ring the bell of happiness in front of the Angel of Death?"

"Please don't talk about her."

Jiang You looked at the Servant named Xuanzang. Having grown up reading Journey to the West, his impression of Tang Sanzang still stuck on the classic image from 86. It wasn't that Jiang You disliked the name of this demonic monk, but it was hard for him to accept. "Your existence is already outrageous enough. Can I call you Magician 113?"

“Why 113?”

Xuanzang was very curious why this servant, who came from the same country as him, used this number to refer to himself. Could it have any special meaning?

"Because you are the 113th Servant according to the card pool order."

Jiang You once again said some incredible words with an expressionless face, but Xuanzang couldn't possibly understand them.

"[Nero.]

"Then the Spell Card [Chakhtice Castle]! Special Summon [Elizabeth Bathory] from your deck in Defense Position!"

Jiang You felt that there should be a reason for this card. Dragon Girl alone has a lot of forms, second only to Artoria, and once upon a time, she had more forms than Artoria.

The eerie castle temporarily replaced the Golden Theater. A young girl with dragon-like features slowly descended the towering stone steps. It was more like a stage than a staircase.

"Come on, bring the spotlight over here!"

The stained windows in the castle reflected scarlet blood light, if that thing could be called a spotlight.

"What idol group?"

Seeing the card Gudako used, Jiang You took over the role of sarcastically commenting on it. He was now extremely worried that Gudako would use a card like [Duo Debut] to ruin the whole situation. After all, the effect of a magic card with a similar name was secondary; he didn't want to hear any demonic sounds piercing his ears.

I don’t know if Wang Ha can withstand it if this happens.

"Yo ho——"

This little dragon girl is more inclined to the idol side. Even when she is summoned in this era, she is still full of Japanese idol style.

"Little puppy, let me help you."

Elizabeth Bathory

Lancer 4 stars, defense 1000.

"Miss Elizabeth, I need to rely on you."

Gudako boasted to everyone she met, "The effect of Elizabeth Bathory: When this card is on the field, our servants' attack power increases by 300. It also has a defense-piercing effect."

The dragon lady further increased Gudako's field attack, though it was useless. Gudako summoned her mainly to block the frequency of her attacks. Jiang You looked at the dragon lady who was happily wagging her tail and decided not to say anything more.

[Da Vinci] Attack damage increased from 2200 to 2500.
