Chapter 1: The Tree of a Thousand Worlds
Holy Grail War.
It is a battle around the Holy Grail, which grants countless wishes.
When the article "Fuyuki's" is added, it refers to a very special war between magicians who summon the Heroic Spirit as a Servant and fight each other until the last man.
Perhaps it was the Society's lax surveillance of this small Eastern nation that it wasn't aware of it until the Holy Grail War was repeated three times. The almighty wish opportunity to manifest this kind of stupidity in the backwoods of the Far East, even if it is a joke, has a limit - the Magic Society's knowledge is only to this extent.
However, the third Holy Grail War distorted everything. Presumably, there was also a reason why World War II was about to break out, and the unusual state of affairs such as "state involvement" led to the end of the Holy Grail War in Fuyuki. At the same time, the system itself of the Holy Grail War is spreading among magicians around the world as intelligence.
Stunned, the magicians rushed to start the Holy Grail War in the form of Fuyuki. Only then did I learn how excellent the Holy Grail War system built by Tosaka, Einzberen, and Machiri was as a ritual.
Unfortunately, the Holy Grail War has not been held again in the 60 years since the birthplace of Fuyuki, and every magician who aspires to the Holy Grail is stuck.
Nowadays, the Holy Grail Wars of the Subspecies are widely held all over the world. These subspecies of Holy Grail Wars are small-scale rituals, and the servants summoned are at most five bodies. Even though the ritual was carried out in its entirety, none of the results could reach the level of a universal wishing machineβ
Tulliface is a small metropolis in the northern part of the Transylvania region of Romania. In the Middle Ages, the walls built to protect against Turkish invasions are still intact and surround some of the fortresses and cities.
Most of the city's buildings have been renovated and remodeled from medieval buildings, and they are of great historical value. With a population of about 20,000, they barely survived on trivial agriculture and textiles.
The symbol of the city is the city of Mirenha, a huge castle that rises over a hill. The owner of the castle has not changed since the Middle Ages. Despite the hardships inflicted on Tulliface by the Ottoman invasion, the Black Death, and the bombing of modern warfare, the fortress and its owners are still alive today.
The name of the clan is the Thousand World Trees, and they are a group of magicians who migrated from Northern Europe to Romania. Right now, the city is full of pomp and circumstance.
Not just the Thousand Realms Tree, but a group of good-looking servants from unknown places were working meticulously and patrolling the city with battle axes far behind the times. There are also stone beds that can walk and stone statues that glow in their eyes......
To the onlooker, it must be surprised to think that something is happening. However, among the simple inhabitants of Tullyface, there is not half a scheming person who will set foot in this strange castle, as long as the lights in the city are still on, and even late night outings are guarded.
And so when the castle lights, which had been extinguished for a long time a few months, began to shine again, the inhabitants looked at each other with a gloomy look on their faces - the blood-stained tyrants had returned!
The residents pray for peace and tranquility while living an ordinary life.
In the wee hours of the morning, the city of Tullyface had already fallen into a deep sleep. In a room in the Fortress of Mirenya, a man is seen watching out of the window. The eyes of the man looking out at the lonely streets lit up with a silent determination.
This is also a matter of course that cannot be successful. If you want to say the reason, it is that as the core of the Fuyuki Holy Grail War, none of the magicians who held the Subspecies Holy Grail War brought it with it. β
"That's?" a majestic voice sounded in the shadows of the room.
"The Great Holy Grail!"
Darnick turned his head, a smug smile on his handsome face.
"Fuyuki's Holy Grail War is to bury the Great Holy Grail in it with the land spirit vein as the core. On top of that, pour magic into the small chalice that is competing with each other in the Holy Grail War. The magicians who imitate the Holy Grail War can only make small chalices, and they are really a bunch of boring fakers. β
"What's the difference between that and the Holy Grail War this time?" the majestic voice sounded again, and the voice owner spoke in a way that was different from that of modern people, full of ancient style.
"Of course, Grand Duke. The smile on Darnik's face deepened, "This land is buried with the Great Holy Grail, the Great Holy Grail that I took from Fuyuki sixty years ago!"
The man's name is Darnick Preston, and he is the patriarch of the Thousand Trees clan and one of the participants in the Third Holy Grail War. It was more than 60 years ago, but the man's face was not wrinkled, and he would have thought he was between 26 and 30 years old. It was as if his time had stopped since the Third Holy Grail War.
"In that Holy Grail War, the little Holy Grail was lost in the middle of the war, and it seemed that it could only be returned in vain. However, I stumbled upon the existence of the Great Holy Grail hidden under Fuyuki, so I snatched it up. At that time, I was able to succeed with the help of the German NAZI Army, to which I belonged. β
Then, taking advantage of the chaos of World War II, he disappeared from German NAZI with the Great Grail, and was closely connected to the spiritual veins of Tullyphas, the stronghold of the Thousand World Tree clan. β
Danick's words are really full of thoughts. In any case, for more than 60 years after the end of the Third Holy Grail War, he has been carefully preparing in order to hide his eyes.
The only miscalculation was that due to the spread of the information about the Holy Grail War of "Fuyuki's", all the holy relics that became catalysts lost their whereabouts. The catalysts of the ancient hero king, the knight king with the strongest holy sword, and the conqueror king who ruled half the world have all escaped without a trace. Despite this, he ordered the clan to gather enough relics over the decades to summon the best Heroic Spirits. It is no less than the holy relics collected by the Magic Society alone.
"That's right, it's all for today!"
The chime of "jingle bell, jingle bell" curtailed Darnick's inflated ambitions, and he left the window to walk over to a phone that modeled a two-thirty over-ear telephone, and picked up the receiver.
"βit's me. β
The old voice ringing in his ears was all too familiar to Darnick.
"Oh, isn't this a summoning of the Minister of Science, His Highness Belfeibon? β
Danick, who answered the phone, and just now, were like two people, and their enthusiastic voices gave people a sense of intimacy like a spring breeze.
However, the old man on the other end of the phone didn't seem to accept this, and his already deep voice was even lower.
"There's no need to pretend to be crazy and stupid, you should know what I'm looking for you for. Relying on the old man alone has reached the limit, and it is still too late. β
"It's really an old-fashioned statement, so I'll return your sentence as it is. β
Darnick didn't seem to pay attention to the old man's implied warning words, his voice was still kind, but it sounded a completely different layer on the other side.
"It's still too late, has the Magic Association made all the necessary preparations for our subjugation?"
"Are you serious?" the old man confirmed one last time.
"You're still talking about this by this time, and it's obviously us who issued the declaration of war. β
For such a confident and almost arrogant Danic, Belfabon only dropped one sentence: "You will regret it, Danik Prestone Thousand Circles Tree." β
"I'll be careful not to get to this point, and so should you. β
"That's what it's called a telephone, it's really funny. Another person, who never showed up, said after Danik hung up.
"Well, in this trivial world, it can be regarded as a product of convenience. β
Darnick nodded, unconcerned about this kind of disconnected statement, knowing that it was 1999, when communications were highly developed, and in a few months, humanity would enter a new century of even more rapid development.
His spirit is connected to the barrier that covers the whole of Tulliface, focused on the foreign object that suddenly appeared.
"In the conversation I just had, it seems that my organization has received an ultimatum from the Magic Society. Immediately, the rebels appeared, and the cleaning team that had arrived to eradicate us, a combat-competent clearing team, had invaded the land. Archduke, they're invading your territory, so they're β "
"Needless to say, magician, please understand your position. The man known as the Grand Duke stood up from the shadows and interrupted Darnik's speech, "Servant, Order, Master!"
Danick was slightly stunned, and then revealed a hideous expression full of murderous intent:
"Annihilate the little ones who invaded this place, Berserker!"
"Understood. Berserker's voice was equally murderous.
