Chapter 19: The Significance of the Holy Grail War
The sun had just set, and one day it was evening, and Rowe was at Ermeiro's house again. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
After carrying Miss Miria to the infirmary, Rowe planned to continue to study in the library, but he didn't want to happen to meet Lecturer Ermero, and he told Ermelo II about the duel between Milia and Atlas just now.
Later, Ermelo II called a carriage and after briefly treating Miria's wounds in the infirmary, he asked her to return to Ermelo's house in the carriage.
However, Rowe also went with him to Ermelo's house.
"The head of the Rhaenys family has something to do with you, so it's just right that you can accompany Miria back. ”
So Rowe went to Ermeiro's house again, and as soon as he entered the gate, the maids took care of Miria and went back to her bedroom, while Rowe was taken to the drawing-room.
Luo Wei was told that the head of the house was out on business and might not come back very late, so in order not to make Luo Wei bored, the maid also brought two magic books to Luo Wei to read.
Addicted to magic books, Rowe waited from two o'clock in the afternoon until about nine o'clock in the evening before the head of the house returned from outside.
However, the head of the Rhaenys family looked like he had forgotten to call Luo Wei, and his first reaction when he saw him was to ask with a surprised face, "Why are you here?"
"The head of the house.... You called me here, and you won't forget it. ”
Of course, it is impossible for Rhaenys to really forget, just now it was the moment when she performed her acting skills, and she just pretended to forget and wanted to see Rovi's reaction.
It's good, smarter than my cousin.
"Of course not, your reaction is not as interesting as my brother's, every time he is deceived by my acting skills, and he honestly explains it to me, it's funny to think about, isn't it?"
"Grey, Flower Tea. ”
"Understood, master. After bowing, the head maid went to prepare the tea that Lyenys needed.
Luo Wei still stole a glance at the head maid with great concern, after all, her appearance was a little too similar to X.
"So, your Servant should still be with you now, right?" Rhaenys' eyes swept around Rowe's left and right, as if she was looking for traces of magic through the Magic Eye, but the Servant's spirit could not be seen even by the Magic Eye.
Rowe nodded, Skaha had actually been by his side today, in order to prevent a sudden sneak attack like last night.
"Anyway, now that you're from my Ermelo family, is there anything you want to do? ”
That's a lot of gratitude, but Rowe didn't dare to accept Rhaenys's help, for fear that accepting it would cost ten times as much.
"Thank you, Master Rhaenys, I now devote all my time to studying, and the library in the Clock Tower is the best place for me to live. ”
"It's good to be studious. Soon the head maid returned and placed the prepared tea on the table between the two of them, and laid down two white teacups, one for Rhaenys and one for Rowe.
Picking up the teacup and taking a sip, the faint fragrance poured into his mouth, and it was the first time Luo Wei had drunk such a high-grade tea.
"So do you want to come to my Ermero house as a son-in-law? How about Milia? I think you two get along quite well, and didn't you help her defeat that gopher today?"
A sip of tea squirts.
The head maid on the side handed over the tissue, and Luo Wei hurriedly took it and wiped his mouth.
"The head of the house.... Are you kidding. ”
Leaving aside the son-in-law, how do you see that Miria and I are quite compatible? And does the gopher mean Atlas?
"No kidding, I don't think there's a problem. Rhaenys laughed as she spoke.
Rowe understood why Lecturer Ermelo didn't come back with him, and it stands to reason that he was the only one in the Ermelo family who would help Rowe, so it would be more appropriate for him to come back.
Just facing this demon can be a headache, not to mention that it's still a demon who likes to play tricks on people.
"Uh.... Let's get down to business, we can put this problem on. Rowe knew that there was no way Rhaenys would call him for something like this.
"Oh, don't refuse but place? That means you still have a crush on Miria? That's right, after all, you're still a little boy, and you're always excited to see beautiful girls, aren't you?"
Rowe now feels not just a headache, but a slight stomach ache.
Anyway, Luo Wei doesn't have a good impression of Miria, or he doesn't pay attention to such things as love between men and women now.
Now Luo Wei is addicted to learning and can't extricate himself, and everything else is ignored by him.
Seeing that Luo Wei had no intention of discussing this issue, Lenys, who had not found fun, also smiled helplessly.
"Well, since you don't want to discuss this, let's get down to business. ”
Take a sip from the teacup and put it down.
"Rovi, how much do you know about the Holy Grail War?"
Anything about the Holy Grail War?
"Gather seven magicians as masters, and let them each summon the Heroic Spirit to become their own servants, fight each other, and finally the winning group can grant any wish through the Holy Grail. Rowe said what he knew.
"Generally speaking, that's true, but there are a few things that need to be corrected. ”
Rhaenys held out her right index finger.
"The first point is that instead of fighting each other, they slaughter each other, and only by killing all the other six servants and accumulating a huge amount of magic power as a sacrifice will the Holy Grail appear. If you just beat and admit defeat, you won't be able to. ”
Then Rhaenys held out her middle finger.
"The second point is that any wish is something that can be achieved within the scope of the magic that the Holy Grail has, and if your wish exceeds the upper limit of the magic of the Holy Grail, it will not be granted. ”
"In other words, even if you win in the end, do you want Miss Miria's servants to kill my Lancer?"
"You don't have to worry about this, because this Holy Grail War is not an orthodox Holy Grail War, just a subspecies Holy Grail War. Rhaenys leaned back and sank into the couch.
"The Holy Grail War in London was started by just a broken Grail kept by the Magic Society, and there may not be seven participants, and there is no need to kill all the servants. ”
"In fact, just by summoning a Servant, the magic power of that Holy Grail should be consumed, right? After all, the few Servants summoned are all first-class Servants as far as I know now, and the significance of this Holy Grail War is not the function of the Holy Grail to realize its wishes, it is a matter of dominance. ”
"Dominance?" Rowe didn't quite understand.
"Of course, you won't understand that this subspecies Holy Grail War is nothing more than a battle for power, needless to say, it is naturally the gophers of Animsfia, the purpose.... It doesn't hurt to tell you now. ”
Rhaenys stared at Rovi and told the true purpose of this Holy Grail War.
"Because the orthodox Holy Grail War will begin in two and a half years. ”
As with the Holy Grail War in Fuyuki City in the Far East, the Magic Society has reconstructed the Great Grail System of Fuyuki City over the years, although it may be lacking, but its actual power has not been affected, and because the Holy Grail of Fuyuki City has been contaminated, the newly constructed Holy Grail can be said to be a very good wishing device.
The location was throughout the United Kingdom, and after two and a half years, it was now confirmed that the Animsfia and Ermelo families were at war.
However, the rest of the masters are uncertain, and in order to ensure that the ownership of the Holy Grail will eventually belong to the Magic Association, the magicians of the Clock Tower have proposed a plan for Animsfia and Ermeiro to join forces.
However, the dispute between the two is over who is in the driver's hands and who will get the Holy Grail in the end.
To be honest, the Animsfia family and the Ermeiro family are equal in strength, and it is not a very easy thing to define, so there is this subspecies Holy Grail War, and the winner will take the lead in the orthodox Holy Grail War.
A simple and crude method is also the best way to prove ability.
"Then who is the Master of the Ermelo Family?" Rowe was curious about this question, he could see that Rhaenys did not have a spell on his hands, if it was a legitimate Holy Grail War, then the spell would appear in the hands of the chosen Lord long before it began.
Should it still be Miria?
Rhaenys reached out and beckoned to the chief maid beside her.
"Grey, show him. ”
The head maid, Grey, walked over and took off the white gloves that matched the maid's outfit, and the three red imprinted spells were engraved on the back of her hand.
The lord of the Ermelo family is actually a head maid?
"Boy, don't underestimate Grey, although she is the head maid of my Ermeiro family, she is a descendant of King Arthur and the tomb keeper of King Arthur's cemetery. ”
When it comes to British myths and legends, the most famous is undoubtedly the Arthurian legend.
Luo Wei was a little speechless, he didn't expect that a head maid was actually a descendant of King Arthur, or what surprised him even more was that King Arthur was not just a legend?
"Well, but it's not Grey that you're going to focus on right now, it's about the Holy Grail War. ”
Leenys waved her hand, and Grey stepped aside.
"This Holy Grail War is actually a power struggle within the Magic Association, and our opponent is the Animsfia family, according to the news, he has secretly encircled a family as an assistant, and it seems that he has also summoned the servants of the Caster rank. ”
"But there is one more point, that is, this Holy Grail War prohibits the master, and only allows the servants to fight each other. But ....." Lyenys had a sinister smile on her face.
"Actually, as long as you don't kill the Master, you and Miria can beat the Gophers of the Animsfia family to pieces, and that's fine. ”
Ruthless enough.
However, listening to what Rhaenys said just now, Luo Wei had doubts.
"Are there only Animsfia and Ermeiro?"
Rhaenys nodded, indicating that this was it, and then took another sip of tea from her teacup.
So what's going on with the Ed family? Rowe didn't quite understand, they shouldn't be the target of the Animsfia family, otherwise Messeri wouldn't have come to her assistant to the Ermeiro family for help.
After all, doesn't even Rhaenys know about Eddard's family?
This made Luo Wei feel that it was better not to get involved in that quagmire, and now everything in Ed's family was full of mysteries.
"Anyway, Rovi, how did you help Miria defeat the Gopher of the Animsfia family today? No, what did that gopher do to make Miria almost defeated, right?"
Rhaenys didn't know the details of today's duel, and Rowe told her all about it, including his assumption that the Animsfia brothers and sisters were both masters.
"Ah, I know that. But Rhaenys knew it.
"But your statement is very unreliable, the master's magic power is supplied to the servant, and another master draws it from it?do you have any theoretical basis?"
"I guess it's the same nature as mana transmission. With that, Luo Wei raised his right hand, and the cyan magic circuit appeared, and Luo Wei began to transmit magic power towards Rhaenys.
Rhaenys's face changed instantly, her pupils turned red, and her eyes began to work at high speed.
"Who gave me permission to transmit your mana?" With the support of MONOCULUS, she was able to see the magic coming from Rovi's hand, flowing through the air like a river, surging towards her.
"Uh.... I'm sorry, my lord. It was a bit rude to do that, and Rowe immediately stopped the mana transmission.
"Hmph, don't take it as an example. But what made Rhaenys curious was the form of magic that was released from Rovi's hand just now.
The magic of the river surges, the embodiment of control. She had seen many magicians unleash their magic power like mist spreading out in all directions, while Luo Wei controlled the magic well, forming a one-way river.
Miria's control of magic Lynys has also seen it, but it is completely different from what Lowe just showed, if you use the sand sculpture to describe it, Rovi has cast a magnificent castle, while Milia's is a plate of loose sand.
"You have a lot of control over magic. ”
However, Luo Wei didn't quite understand what control meant, and he hadn't realized that mana transmission was essentially a way of controlling mana.
"Okay, I've finished what I called you to say, anyway, you just need to be careful not to kill the gophers of the Animsfia family by mistake, and the rest is up to you, after all, your servant is one of the top servants, use it well." ”
Rhaenys thought of something and continued, "Oh yes, in return, when Miria wins, I'll tell the old guys in the Tower of Clocks to give you back the title of magician." ”
The word "also" is quite true, in fact, the paper written by Lowe has already made the review of the clock tower approve of him, and he is ready to give him the title, and that was three years ago.
"Then I'll thank the master of the house in advance. Luo Wei didn't show any expression on his face, just faintly thanked him.
"Nothing, as it should be. ”
It's really a ridiculous situation, obviously taking away the title of a person, but still asking him to do things for himself, and the reward after success is what she took away.
It's like a thief stealing someone's money, asking the stolen person to help her steal something again, and only returning the money to him after stealing.
Luo Wei was angry in his heart, but it was not yet time to show it.
Now he really made up his mind that one day, he would definitely make this demon cry out and show him.
Leaving the parlor, Rowe walked towards the outside of Ermelo's house, feeling a little tired at the thought of walking back to his house again.
Although I usually have to walk half of London from the Clock Tower home, it is still a little unbearable to have to cross the whole of London every day.
Thinking like this, Luo Wei, who was walking with his head down, didn't pay attention to the people walking by on the side, and bumped into it.
It's hard, this is Luo Wei's intuitive feeling, and the cold feeling is like steel, but the person he hit just now seems to be very small, but he doesn't know why the force is so great, and that force directly pushed him to the ground.
"It hurts... It hurts, it hurts. Beside Rowe, another person who had fallen to the ground as they hit each other let out a slight groan.
The blonde girl was holding her head and whispering in pain, the problem was that she was wearing white armor and steel boots on her feet, and Rowe had never seen her, nor did she look like a maid, if she had to say, she looked more like a knight in the Middle Ages.
But when she saw Rowe, she quickly stood up and reached out to Rowe.
"I'm sorry, are you hurt?" he spoke very quickly, and his movements were a little large, and he felt a little reckless.
"Well, it's fine. Pulled up by the girl, Luo Wei felt the power again. Obviously he is very petite, and he doesn't seem to have many muscles on his arms, but why does he have so much strength.
"By the way, who are you? I don't think I have seen you yet, from the Ermelo family?" Rowe asked, one thing she wanted to know.
Because the blonde girl in front of him was the third person he had seen who looked very similar, the first was X, and the second was the maid chief Grey. If the three of them are related, Luo Wei will not doubt it at all.
"Ah, I forgot to introduce myself. ”
The girl's right hand clenched into a fist and hung down on her chest, standing straight, and she really looked like a knight.
"I'm Artoria Pendragon, I just drew the sword of the king (Caliburn) not long ago, and now I am on the way to practice as a knight, please advise. ”
