At the site of the collapse of the Hyatt Regency Fuyuki, rescue teams were working through the night.

The hotel's evacuees finally found out after Kiritsugu's magic lost its effect. At the time of the collapse of the hotel, two important guests remained inside.

Although there is no hope for the survival of the two guests who were on the top floor of the hotel at the time of the accident, at least their bodies must be found before they can die. The rescue team used an excavator to quickly clear the rubble from the site under the daylight of the lighting truck.

By dawn the next day. The faces of the rescue team members, who had worked nervously all night, were full of tired expressions. And just then, a strange thing happened.

"You said you found something strange?"

The director who received the report quickly rushed to the scene. According to team members, silver spheres up to three meters in diameter were found in the rubble. Something that didn't look like building materials by any means suddenly appeared in the rubble.

“…… Is it in the building? The installation of the revolving restaurant on the top floor?"

"Even then, isn't it strange that there are no signs of damage at all?"

In this way, the surface of the silver sphere does not show any signs of damage, but instead reflects a vivid luster like a mirror. It looks like it's just been polished here.

"Why- it looks like mercury."

Feeling a little incredible, the director walked over and touched the surface of the sphere as he explained his feelings.

When his hand touched the surface of the sphere, he pressed it all at once.

“?”

Just when he was taken aback, he took a closer look. only to find that his hand only touched the surface of the hard sphere and did not press it inside.

"Director?"

“……”

None of the surrounding team members seemed to notice the anomaly just now, and they all looked at the director with a surprised expression on his face.

"Did something happen?"

“…… This thing has to be shipped out. ”

"Huh?"

… Get it out by truck, hurry. ”

The rescue director suddenly became unusually calm. In calm language, he commanded the team members to move quickly.

Although the rescue team members are still somewhat unclear so. However, he still knows that the orb of unknown origin in front of him should be evacuated from the field as soon as possible. So everyone quickly moved the silvery-white sphere to the rack of the truck.

"Huh? Where's the director?"

Suddenly, one of the team members noticed. The director, who had been supervising their work just a moment ago, was gone. And just behind the rescue team members who were busy working, the sound of the truck engine starting.

In the driver's seat of a truck slowly driving away from the scene of the accident. Sitting was the rescue director with a glazed eye. But by the time the rescuers found out, it was too late. The truck loaded with the silver orb had disappeared into the streets of dawn.

Five hours later, police cars patrolling the outskirts of the city found the missing truck and the rescue officer, who was still in the driver's seat but unconscious. But the silver sphere that was supposed to be loaded on the truck rack was left with an empty shell.

"What's that?...... In the eastern direction. Early in the morning, Webb, who was discussing with Rider whether or not to wear pants, was drawn to attention by a magic pulse.

Iskander, as a Servant, could also clearly feel the stimulation of the sound just now.

Looking out of the open window, a layer of clouds could be seen above the clear sky. Although it looks similar to the smoke produced by the explosion of fireworks, judging by the flickering light, it is not the smoke produced by ordinary fireworks.

Although the smoke was obvious to Webb, it was caused by magic, so no one but the magician could see it. The sound just now is the same, but it sounds like an ordinary firecracker to ordinary people.

"That location...... It's the location of the Fuyuki Church, right?"

Webb, as one of the masters of the Holy Grail War, still had some basic knowledge, so he immediately discovered what this signal meant.

The Templar Church, as the battle overseer, will release such notification fireworks whenever it is necessary to inform the Masters of a major decision. There is no better way to inform the Masters of their whereabouts than this.

"Is it something that has something to do with us?" Rider asked.

This question made Webb a little confused about how to answer yes, "I can't say that it doesn't matter at all. How do you say it......"

In fact, Weber did not declare his status as Master to the Church of Fuyuki, which was the overseer.

However, as long as you stand on the land of Fuyuki City with Servant, you can naturally establish yourself as a Master. So there is no need to look at the face of the church—Weber judged. After all, he used dishonorable means to obtain the holy relics. If you do something superfluous now, you may end yourself up in a difficult situation.

However, it would not be safe to ignore the convening of the Fuyuki Church just like that. What kind of emergency does the church as the overseer call a meeting attended by all the masters?...... Generally speaking, there are only rule changes or additional conditions, etc. And maybe there will be some new information to come.

This information may be the key to determining the outcome of future battles. As things stand, it would be useful to listen to the overseer's advice. And even if it's a rule that restricts itself, it's good to ignore it when the time comes.

"Rider, more on the pants later. Now I have to prepare something else. ”

"It's a shame, it's a rare day to walk in." Rider sighed in disappointment.

In the Templar Church, Father Yan Feng Lizheng looked at the thick demonic aura in front of him and smiled helplessly.

About an hour after the signal to recruit the Master is issued. None of the Masters showed up at the Winterwood Church, and instead the five Messengers gathered here. Except for Kiri Yanmine, who ostensibly withdrew from the war, and Ryunosuke, the Master of Anverger, who couldn't see the magic signal, the other Masters all sent representatives. It seems that if all the masters are counted, everyone doesn't care about the superficial attitude towards the church.

Even Tosaka Tokitomi only sent envoys to attend. The remaining four demons should have been sent by Ainz Belen, Makiri, and the two masters from outside. This also proves the fact that Kenneth, whose whereabouts are unknown during the bombing of the Hyatt Fuyuki, is still alive.

"Originally, I also specially prepared cold words, but it seems that no one came, so I will just say it."

After a brief opening remarks, the old priest continued in front of the empty congregation – at least without humans as an audience.

"The Holy Grail War, which has been able to fulfill your long-cherished wishes, is now facing a major crisis. Originally, the Holy Grail would only give power to those who pursued him and the Heroic Spirits, but now there was a betrayer in the midst of it. He and his Heroic Spirit disregarded the righteousness of the Holy Grail. Use the power given to them to satisfy your own shallow desires. ”

Perhaps because he was accustomed to preaching as a priest, Rimasa spoke alone, regardless of the audience's reactions. Of course, the audience sitting in the devotee seat will only listen in silence. After coughing, the old priest continued.

"The servant who appeared last night is an Avenger, not a regular job of the Holy Grail. Although his real name is unknown, there is no doubt that the one who can serve as an Avenger is either a peerless villain or an anti-hero who hates everything, and if such a guy is allowed to get the Holy Grail, there will inevitably be serious problems. And his master, yesterday we found out that this man is the culprit of the recent serial murder in Fuyuki City. ”

"He and his Servant are no longer your personal enemies, but public enemies that threaten the call of the Holy Grail."

"For such an existence, I will use my extraordinary overseeing powers to temporarily change the rules of the Holy Grail War." Yan Fengli was making a declaration in a serious voice while rolling up his right sleeve and exposing his arm.

All the masters who had passed through the Demon to see Yan Fengli's arms were shocked, from his elbow all the way to his wrist. It's covered in spells.

"These are the things that I have recovered from the past Holy Grail War and entrusted to me as the overseer of this Holy Grail War. Before the decisive battle was fought, the legacy of the Servant Masters was lost—the spells they had not yet used. ”

Seeing this evidence, no one doubted the authority of Father Lizheng as an overseer.

The spells that the masters didn't have time to use in the past are now kept by him as the administrator.

Also known as stigmata, the Spell is a testament to the fate of participating in the Holy Grail War. Not only does it contain the meaning of fate, but it is also a kind of control device for the Servant.

The phenomenon of mantras can be called a miracle in itself. However, although this mark on Master's body has very powerful energy, it is only a type of consumable physical enchantment, so it can also be transplanted or transferred through spells.

"I can transfer these preparatory spells to anyone at my own discretion. For those of you who are now in control of the Servant, you should know the importance and value of these markings, right?"

Although he was faced with the demons who were only responsible for relaying what he heard to his master, Father Risho gradually entered a state of preaching and began to become agitated.

"All the Masters have stopped all the fighting they are fighting now, and everyone is doing their best to annihilate Avenger first. In addition, I will select the person who eliminated Avenger and his Master, and give him a spell that will be added as a special measure. If it is completed by a single person, it will be given to only that person, and if it is completed by multiple people, it will be given to each person who gives power. When it is confirmed that the Avenger has been eliminated, the Holy Grail War will begin again. ”

After lowering his sleeve, Father Risho added, "Then, if you have any questions, please raise them here." ”

There was a commotion in the darkness. The sound of moving chairs, getting up, and leaving mingled and then faded away.
