Chapter 5: Grey

The Book of Events, known as the Book of Events of Elmeloy II, is one of the works of the Moon Society, which tells the story of Webb Velwitt after the end of the Fourth Holy Grail War.

The story is set in a clock tower and uses reasoning and magic to portray human nature, which is a masterpiece suitable for calming down and reading slowly, and it is also one of Shinji's favorite works in his previous life, except for the four main works. It's just that the work itself is more reasonable, and the style is far from most of the works of the moon, so the popularity in the moon kitchen circle is not as high as other works with the name of FATE, but the quality is really good - at least much higher than a certain FA.

The first volume of the opening chapter of "The Book of Events of the Second World" is the chapter of "Stripping the City of Adra", and Weber, who is nearly thirty years old, shows a mature charm and wisdom that is different from other male protagonists in the world of the moon. Shinji originally witnessed this kind of demeanor up close, and swept away the image of more and more "overwork" recently, but he didn't expect this guy to refuse.

No, if you think about it, this is the choice that fits Weber's character.

In the original world line, after Kenneth's death, Al Meloy owed a lot of debts, which weighed Webb down, so he had to take on all kinds of troublesome commissions. But now it is different, Weber does not have so much foreign debt, and the loans for the modern magic department are all benign loans, and it is not very difficult to repay, there is no need to take risks, especially those related to the dark side of the "Law and Political Science Department".

Not getting involved in political struggles and teaching with peace of mind is Kenneth's hope, Weber's credo, and the capital of the Elmeroy classroom beyond the faction.

Thinking of this, Shinji no longer insisted on it, and reached out to take the invitation: "Then I'm welcome, is it okay to participate in the name of the classroom?"

Webber nodded indifferently: "No problem, most of your superficial relationships in the clock tower are in the modern magic department, and the outside world thinks that I am not interested in participating, so I send someone over to go through the motions - unless you make a big event." ”

"I haven't done anything in three years, don't worry. ”

"Mr. Makiri, we provided the name and invitation letter and took a certain risk, what should you give. ”

"Ma'amβ€”"

Without giving Webb a chance to speak, Shinji took the lead in making a statement.

"Miss Rhaenys is right, courtesy is reciprocated, and it is right. The inheritance of Adela is under the supervision of the Legal Affairs Section, and when the incident is over, I will fight for you a copy - what do you think of the 'Stripping City' itself?"

Leenys shook her head, "I don't like that twisted castle. ”

"And what do you like?"

"I think the engraving restoration technique is good, and it would be nice to get that. ”

"You're shrewd, worthy of Webber's little butler. ”

Hearing Shinji's praise, Rhaenys' eyes suddenly narrowed into crescent moons, and Webber covered his forehead with his hand as if he couldn't bear to look at it directly.

"But I can't guarantee this, so I can only try my best to fight for it. I really can't get you more resources, this kind of thing, like technology, will never go out of style. ”

"Thank you, Second Brother Shen. ”

"Hehe, I know to call my brother at this time. Shinji laughed.

"Aha. ”

Rhaenys laughed and pretended to be stupid, and quickly got up to leave. This kind of point-to-point, just right attitude makes people feel very comfortable, no wonder the original world line, after Kenneth's death, after the turmoil of the Elmeloy faction, the remaining forces have gathered around her.

As she turned around, the smile on Shinji's face slowly faded, and finally turned into a light sigh that no one noticed.

I'm sorry, if you knew the body of that technology, you wouldn't say that, you can ask for anything in "Stripping City", but you can't touch it - when this matter is over, the eldest lady is probably going to get angry again, so this damn magic world really should be cleaned up.

Pushing open the office door, Rhaenys stopped at the entrance, as if speaking to someone.

"yes, are you here too?"

β€œβ€¦β€¦ Well. Another girl's voice, weak and unconfident, contrasted with Leenys.

"How's life like an apprentice, haven't you been abused by that sinister master?"

β€œβ€¦β€¦ That, compared to life in the country, is much easier. ”

"That's it, that's good. Oh, if you want to talk about my brother, there are still so many students, but there are almost no inner disciples who are responsible for helping with housework. In a sense, you're the ultimate line of defense. Well, there's a lot of responsibility, huh?"

β€œβ€¦β€¦ I will, work hard. ”

"It's a shame to wear a hood with such a lovely face. ”

How does it look like the feeling of the main wife talking to the concubine? Shinji complained in his heart. Webb, who was beside him, had long since given up thinking.

"Excuse me. ”

A weak girl walks into the office.

Seeing this girl, Shinji suddenly felt extremely kind. The girl's outfit is exactly the same as her former self. The dark cloak wraps around the whole body, the face is not visible, and the sense of existence is thin, and it is the true biography of the crown assassin (fog).

"Master, your disciple, Grey, is here......"

"Speaking of which, you haven't seen it yet, this is my new inner disciple, Grey. Grey, this is my friend, Shinji Makiri. ”

"Hello, Miss Grey. ”

"Hello, Mr. Makiri. ”

The girl bowed in a proper manner, perhaps because of the big movements, and the hood of the cloak showed a gap, revealing the girl's true face.

Shinji pressed Webber's shoulder with his backhand: "I'm sorry, Miss Grey, I have something to talk about with your master, please avoid it a little." It won't be long, just a few minutes, please. ”

Grey quietly looked at Webb, and after getting permission from the latter, she exited the door.

"I need an explanation. ”

"I was about to tell you. Webber's expression remained unchanged, "She is a descendant of King Arthur's family, King Arthur's grave keeper, Grey, Gray, Grave." ”

"So she and Artoria look exactly the same?

That's right, the girl's face is exactly the same as that of Arthurian Artoria. The only difference is that Artoria is blonde and the maiden has gray hair, just like her name, Gray.

"It's not. Webb shook his head, "Her original resemblance was not so high, it suddenly changed one day ten years ago. ”

"Ten years, you meanβ€”"

"It's the one you and I both know, she has an unusual psychic nature, and may have been influenced by that. ”

"Yes. ”

Shinji let go of Webb's hand and looked thoughtfully out the door.

Sure enough, it just looks alike, and the personality is not like it at all.

"Webb, give her to me for a while, there are some things you can't teach her, I can. ”
