The Holy Grail, the being who is given this title, is not one. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

The most well-known is probably the concept of the golden cup used by the Holy Jesus at the Last Supper because of the widespread spread of the Christian church.

There are countless rumors about the Holy Grail. For example, "The Holy Grail once contained the blood of the Holy One" or "Only the most holy believers hold the Holy Grail......

However, about the Holy Grail...... There is also an untold legend......

That's ......

"Can the holder fulfill any of his wishes......

2055, United Kingdom, Clock Tower Collection.

A young lecturer with hearty blonde hair holds a delicate ancient book in one hand.

The warm orange candlelight swayed between the dimly lit wooden pavilions, and this ancient decoration gave a very fresh experience in the era of such advanced electrical technology.

In the soft scent of burning pine resin, the young lecturer thrust the book back into the shelf with a slight grunt.

"Huh...... It's a fantasy. ”

A satisfied smile appeared on the corner of his lips, the matter of [acquiring knowledge] made him feel happy at all times. However, there was a hint of mockery between the words, as if mocking the sentence that had just been read and memorized in the brain: "Fulfill any wish".

The man's sneering voice speaks volumes about his attitude toward this kind of account.

He has short soft blonde hair like sand gold, simply combed, but not particularly neat, the corners reveal a little messy casualness, Caucasian blood makes his skin extraordinarily fair, revealing a healthy blood color, sea blue eyes slightly drooping, revealing a little melancholy and deep feelings, the bridge of the nose is a typical European tall feeling, but the lips are very thin, always with a smile.

The combination of upright facial features shows a decent appearance that makes people feel good, coupled with his inadvertently revealing aristocratic cultivation and gentle temperament, I'm afraid that no matter where he is, he will attract countless admiring eyes.

This man's name is Albert Fergus Winifred, and he is a magician who belongs to the British clock tower.

When it comes to magicians, it's not a profession in the traditional sense of the word: a profession that makes poker disappear, or that uses visual errors to create small-scale sensationalism.

Starting from countless ancient times, he explored the true meaning of the Demon Dao, stepped into the realm of the occult, kept forging ahead, kept exploring, and stepped into a completely different world on the road contrary to science.

That's the magician's world.

For ordinary people, the name "magician" is more in line with this special group of people of secrecy.

However, within the magician, magic is a sacred word that must not be used indiscriminately. Things that can be done by driving magic, such as emitting flames or condensing water into ice, are the realms of magic. Only those great deeds that human beings cannot accomplish in a lifetime are in the category of "magic".

Abner is a member of this special group of people - the seekers of the Devil's Way.

Not only that, but at the age of twenty-four, he was already the eleventh generation of the Winifred family, and the clock tower's premier demon expert. Driven by the magic of the water element, he has a magical attainment that far surpasses that of other magicians.

However...... The best of the young magicians is only a small lecturer in the [Magic Engineering Optimization] course, which makes people doubt the selection criteria of the clock tower.

In fact, it was this mentorship that led to his status under the famous lecturer of the Achipolud family, Ermelo II.

When it comes to [Ermelo II], everyone knows about the clock tower, no one knows about it.

First, this man had participated in the Holy Grail War, and although he was not a victor, he was a survivor. The death of Kenneth Ermelo Aqipolud, the first-class genius magician of the Clock Tower, who participated in the war at the same time, and the death of the patriarch of the Tosaka clan who ruled Fuyuki, the Tosaka Toki, made him famous.

Second, this person is extremely good at digging up talented people in the Demon Path. Although my magic skills are shallow, let alone a second-rate magician, in the clock tower where talents are becoming more and more prosperous, I am afraid that even calling him a third-rate magician will be slightly touted.

But this man's knowledge of the Demon Dao is terrifying, he is simply an encyclopedia that can walk, he has many disciples, and he has a wide network of connections in the clock tower. Someone once said of this stereotypical old man: "As long as he has the heart, he can subvert the pattern of the clock tower".

Third...... The same person, forty years ago, that is, the tenth year after the Fifth Holy Grail War, personally went to the battlefield of the Holy Grail War, Fuyuki Town, to dismantle the core item of the Holy Grail War, [Great Holy Grail].

For magicians, the Holy Grail War can be said to be a high-level magician event, but also the highest event in the magic world, the Great Holy Grail accumulates magic, held every sixty years on average, and selects seven magicians from all over the world, giving them a part of the Holy Grail's vast magic power, allowing them to summon servants.

Seven magicians with different positions of servant fight each other to determine the winner, hold the Holy Grail, and grant their wishes, which is a miracle in the magic world!

However, Ermelo II personally destroyed the possibility of this miracle.

It's hard for this kind of person not to be famous, right?

As a result, Ermelo II and the Clock Tower have a problem, although on the surface everyone still exchanges information and looks safe, but on the other hand, all the magicians related to Ermelo II have been hindered to varying degrees in their future careers.

If it weren't for the reputation of the Winifred family, and the fact that Albert was a young master who was called a genius, he would not even have had the opportunity to touch the qualifications of this little lecturer.

This is also the reason why Abner previously scoffed at the Holy Grail War.

As the name suggests, the Holy Grail War is a battle that revolves around the Holy Grail, and even the Holy Grail has been dismantled...... What else to fight?

But......

Abner's left hand lightly overlays his right hand.

Although he was now wearing white gloves, under the silky soft touch, EBNER clearly felt the huge magic flowing.

It was [something] that was several times the magic of the human limit.

Three red marks, assembled into a whirlpool, appeared on the back of his right hand.

It's something called the Spell.

In the Holy Grail War, three consumables can be issued to summoned servants with "absolute obedience".

In other words, it was the "ticket" to the Holy Grail War.

Whoever is chosen by the Holy Grail and becomes the master will have a spell appearing. On top of that, if you summon a Heroic Spirit to come into the world as a servant, you will officially become a participant in the Holy Grail War.

Heroic spirits are essentially a type of demonic spirit. However, it is fundamentally different from the demon.

Or the world's famous heroes, thieves.

Or the fierce beasts and sacred beasts of myths and legends.

Or some kind of spiritual belief that people believe in.

Heroic spirits are such beings. Although it is the same classification as the conventional understanding of the demon, it cannot be compared because of the difference in "quality".

Pencils and diamonds are also made of carbon, but the latter is thousands of times harder. That's probably the difference between a demon and a heroic spirit.

The magic power needed to serve the Heroic Spirit is the magic power that human beings have been extremely poor and difficult to accumulate in their lifetimes. After all, the Heroic Spirit is a legendary hero, and I think it must be different from the bird, mouse and the like that are demonic in the conventional sense.

Other words...... Heroic Spirits are supposed to be beings that humans cannot serve, and even if they are reduced to Servants, they are still uncontrollable beings for humans.

This is one of the miracles of the Holy Grail.

The participants in the Holy Grail War will be supported by the huge magic power of the Holy Grail, and can summon the Heroic Spirit to serve themselves as a [servant], the master is only the magic power supplied to the Heroic Spirit [Present World], and the spell is the "rein" that absolutely requires the Heroic Spirit to obey him three times.

The matter of summoning the servant is in itself a "miracle" on the demon path. No one can doubt the power of the Great Grail as the cause of the miracle itself.

However, as mentioned earlier, from the moment Abner was born, the Holy Grail War was already in the "past perfect tense".

Not paying too much attention to the impossible, this is the character of Abner.

Now, however, he was suddenly subjected to the most severe problem caused by his own personality.

That's ...... Lack of intelligence.

As for the Holy Grail War, Abner simply knew that it was a high-profile "war" of magicians. That's all.

Other information, it is not clear.

Abner had never felt such an unreassuring emotion.

"It is necessary...... Let's take a closer look. Holy Grail War. ”

Gently stroking the back of his hand, Abner's melancholy eyes showed a rare resolute brilliance.

As a member of the Clock Tower, as a member of the Magicians, it is his duty to investigate everything about the Holy Grail War.

At the same time, however, his heart was calling.

If......

Even if it's only a 1 in 10,000 chance......

It's a true Holy Grail War......

If you can win...... Perhaps, with the power of the Holy Grail...... Reach the Existence of the Root, which every magician desires......

In that case......

EBNER strengthened his heart.

Either way, we have to look into it.
