What an unexpected encounter, John looked at the hero king with his back to him, and he didn't expect that this ancient king actually liked to play games. John thought about Iskandar, who was wearing a T-shirt around the game, and didn't feel a little funny: one was the Sumerian king of the Mesopotamian plains, the root of many heroic stories, and the other was the emperor who destroyed three of the four ancient civilizations and created the largest empire in the world at that time, but they were all addicted to the game. "If the Heroic Spirits can live forever, I'm afraid only Professor Yang can get them out of the game. Although he didn't know who Professor Yang was, it didn't prevent John from making such an exclamation.

But come to think of it, I don't seem to be qualified to talk about them. John thought that they were addicted to games, but they themselves liked the various recipes of this world, which was a subversion of other people's impressions of Heroic Spirits. Thinking of the first time he cooked in the castle, Emiya Kiritsugu's expression knew that this kind of thing was almost ruined for him.

While thinking about it, John had no idea of greeting Gilgamesh. Since I can't buy new books, I'd better go back. Thinking so, John glanced in the direction of Gilgamesh. It seemed that Gilgamesh had played the jackpot again, and the exclamation of the surrounding crowd of onlookers and Gilgamesh's barbell-like laughter spread far and wide in the empty streets outside. Forget it, it's rare to be here, and it's good to be able to have fun. John smiled slightly.

Back in the castle, John looked at the light by the window and could see that everyone was resting. Also, no matter how you say it, it's already early in the morning, and even Emiya Kiritsugu needs sleep to replenish his strength and energy. No, John touched his chin and thought about it, now Maiya Kuyu is out on a reconnaissance mission, and he is not in the castle, and the people in the castle, in addition to the androids, Alice Phil has inherited her own dragon vein, and not sleeping all night naturally will not have any effect; In this way, the most powerful and persistent Emiya Kiritsugu was the weakest one in the castle? John was amused by his own crankiness.

However, Einz Bellen's stronghold, one of the organizers of the Holy Grail War, naturally did not be unaware of John's return. As John pushed open the door, John saw a figure standing on the stairs. Surprisingly, it wasn't Emiya Kiritsugu or Alice Phil, but someone who had nothing to do with this war, the puppeteer - Aozaki Orange.

"Why?" Lookout for nothing, Orange Aosaki asked the question when she saw John. Even John didn't know what Aozaki Orange was asking, looked at Aozaki Orange, and said, "What?" "I said, why, you should know the value of your blood, but why did you give it to me?" This time, I just used a little bit to get that person to have a dragon vein, and you should know the value of this better than I do, but why did you choose to take out more blood instead of talking about its contagiousness when I first questioned its value? This is far more than the value of my dolls. This doesn't make sense. ”

"That's it. John looked at the blood that was only a small part less than when he had handed it over, and said, "The reason is simple, because I am not of this world, you know this." Orange Souzaki thought that what John was talking about was her Heroic Soul identity and nodded. John nodded when he saw Aozaki Orange and said, "Because I don't know if the blood left in this world will disappear with me when I leave." Now, after considering this possible risk, do you still think that I gave you too much?" Aozaki Orange heard John's words, thought about it, said nothing, and turned back to the room.

The next day, John was stopped by Kiritsugu Emiya: "Caster, let's start the battle meeting." "Indeed, the Holy Grail War has been going on for quite some time now, and three Heroic Spirits have returned to the Holy Grail. If there is no Eighth Servant, the Holy Grail War is already halfway underway, and the arrival of the Holy Grail can already be planned. And now, the key to summoning the Great Holy Grail - the small Holy Grail is Alice Phil's original body, so his side must have the upper hand. At the same time, his side also has two powerful servants, Saber has the best quality of all ranks, and Saber himself is also a well-known hero, the legendary knight king Arthur, that is to say, there is no conflict between the strongest rank and the strongest servant, and the fusion is very harmonious, even the Tosaka Shichen who is very confident in the most ancient king of his own side will be worried, not to mention the most outstanding performance in the high-profile eighth servant crusade, Although he only shot twice, he used a big magic trick close to magic at the end, directly burning the sea monster to ashes, and directly sending the eighth servant back to the Holy Grail, and naturally he is also one of the top servants, which cannot be underestimated.

"Caster, what do you think the other masters will do next?" "Emiya Kiritsugu writes and draws on the whiteboard with the pen in his hand, pasting corresponding photos from time to time, and explains the current situation to John, Saber, and Alice Phil, who are sitting below—although for Emiya Kiritsugu, the latter two have no need to attend the meeting. John looked at what Kiritsugu Emiya had written, and said, "If I were them, I would choose one person to join forces, and two against two is what they want to see." "That's what I think about that, too. Emiya Kiritsugu put away his pen and said, "The question now is, who is joining forces with whom? Indeed, the only people who still exist are Archer of the Tosaka family, Berserker of the Magiri family, and Webb Velvett, the apprentice of the clock tower.

"Although it is common sense that the Gosan family will exclude the other contestants before fighting each other to choose the winner of the Holy Grail War, it means that it is most likely that the Tosaka family and the Makiri family will join forces now. And according to the information I have explored, the Tosaka family also passed on their second daughter to the Maki family, so it can be said that the relationship between the two families is extraordinary, and the two families are naturally the most likely to join forces. But considering their servants...... "Emiya Kiritsugu put down the pen in his hand in distress, holding his chest with one hand and touching his chin with the other.

John nodded: "Needless to say, Archer's arrogance should not be the same as that crazy Berserker. No, if it were the Ancient King, he probably wouldn't even look in the direction of Berserker. And, if I'm not mistaken, the lord of the Makiri family doesn't seem to be as close to the Tosaka family as you say, and Berserker's appearance was due to the appearance of the servant of the Tosaka family, and after the appearance, he attacked Archer regardless of it. ”

"So, the situation is not very clear now. Emiya Kiritsugu rubbed his eyebrows, it seemed that he did have a headache.
