The S School District [Hall of Truth], which is currently closed to the public, is located in an alien world independent of this world set up by Zero View. Among the modern and ancient mysterious buildings, the most striking and noteworthy building is none other than the Great Library, which is named "Discover the Truth".
The library is so large and covers a vast area that at a glance it is more magnificent than any human-built building on Earth.
The collection of books in it was made by one person.
Although the makers are all zero-minded, he did not indicate this in the Demon Dao book, but wrote his own name on the books that he sorted out, and the other existing books were marked with the name of the original author. The books here cover all fields, and the books with the highest protection level are all at the level of 103,000 magic books, including the magic books on the magic side, as well as the knowledge and books on the technology side.
As a result, this huge library is filled with books, and each shelf is filled with corresponding books, a staggering number of them. In fact, Zero Guan didn't have so many magic books he had collected, but in order to fill the library, he deliberately liberated the power of the [Seat of Reason] and carried out a small-scale calculation, and at least obtained this number of books.
The moonlight shone in the sky.
Zeroview leads Shirou through a long path, avoiding traps and traps set along the way. Eventually, the two of them came to a remote place next to the Great Library.
In the open space is a circular platform. An intricate and beautiful dark red pattern is carved on the platform, which is the magic circle of the Lord's summoning of the Heroic Spirit. Since it had not yet been activated, the color of the magic circle was a little dull, like the color of coagulated blood.
Shirou wondered, "Can you really summon a legendary hero with this?" ”
"Of course." Zero Guan asked him to walk to the magic array. "The sigil that appears in your hand is the best proof of the participants in the Holy Grail War, and if you win this battle, you will be able to achieve what you want to achieve most. It's not that hard to be a partner in justice or something. ”
"That's right...... Alright, let me see who the hero is fighting alongside me. The young man's face was as generous as righteousness.
"Don't be so tragic! I won't hurt you! "Zero watching is funny.
Shirou will be brought here because Zeroview is going to hand over the work of patrolling Fuyuki City to his future justice partners. In order to strengthen him. Zero View deliberately made a magic array, allowing him to summon his own heroic spirit with the spell given by the "Great Holy Grail" first.
Anyway, the Fifth Holy Grail War is destined to have distorted the original book, and I don't care about that.
"What should I do?" Shirou asked.
"You don't have to do anything, just just stand there and wait. I'll do the rest for you. With that, Zero Guan activated the magic array on its own.
There is no need for any chanting, and there is no need for any strange props, Zero View just sends the mana into the magic array, and the rest is all run by the magic array. Instilled with mana, the color of the magic circle gradually became brighter and brighter. The magic circuit activated, and a blue pillar of light suddenly rose into the sky.
Pillars of light lit up in front of him, and the space was violently distorted like a whirlpool.
Shirou watched this scene in surprise.
However, he remembered what Zero Guan had just said, and stood there motionless.
The light curtain around the blue pillar of light became more and more bright, and the degree of spatial distortion became more and more violent, and then suddenly a blonde figure appeared.
"There is no obstacle to success?!" Looking at all this that happened, Zero View suddenly felt a little disappointed. The "Great Holy Grail" actually didn't stop him from "sneaking away"!
There are few clouds today, although the bright moon has not reached its fullest moment. But it's not far off.
Bright moonlight scattered from the sky, shining on the maiden in knight's attire.
“……”
At this moment, Shirou could no longer make a sound.
Not because of the confusion that happened suddenly, but because the girl in front of him was so beautiful that he lost the ability to speak.
The girl in knight's costume glanced at Zero Guan without emotion with jewel-like pupils. Then he stared quickly at Shirou next to him.
In the depths of her eyes, Zero saw a deep exhaustion and despair, the obsession to pursue the Holy Grail and change everything was already very thin, and her eyes were not as determined as before.
"No wonder she was attacked by Shirou, her faith must have been gradually eroded in the previous failure in the battle for the Holy Grail." Zero Guan sighed in his heart.
A girl in a knight's costume - King Arthur - Artoria. Ignoring the existence of Zero View, he just asked Shirou in an awe-inspiring tone, "I'll ask you." Are you my master? ”
"The host...... Yes? Yes! Yes, that's right! Awakened by the girl's awe-inspiring voice, Shirou's brain gradually regained its function, remembering the fact that the slender girl was a legendary hero.
Hearing Shirou's words, Artoria immediately continued to say in an awe-inspiring voice, "Servant, swordsman, follow your call. Master, please instruct! ”
"Hmm!"
With the approval of the Heroic Spirit, the contract between the Master and the Heroic Spirit was completely completed, and Shirou's left hand felt like it had been burned by a soldering iron, and he involuntarily pressed the back of his hand.
The girl looked at him quietly and said directly: "From now on, my sword is with you, and your fate coexists with me." At this point, the contract is complete! ”
"Contract? Well, yes, that's right. Being stared at by such a beautiful strange girl, Rao Shirou was thick-skinned enough and felt that his face was burning in a panic.
Just when he was a little flustered, the girl had already looked at Zero Guan next to her with her beautiful face, and there was obvious hostility in her eyes.
Seeing this, Lingguan raised his forehead and sighed: "Hey, hey, I'm your master's principal, are you sure you want to do something to me?" ”
"Ahh This is my principal, you...... Make no mistake about it. Shirou reacted at this time and hurriedly stood in front of the girl to prevent a misunderstanding.
"Is it the master, your headmaster? Well, it's me who is rude. The girl frowned, and the hostility in her eyes lessened considerably.
Zero Guan didn't bother with her, and turned to Shirou, who had his back to him.
"Shirou."
"Yes, Headmaster."
Shirou turned around and looked at Zero.
Zero Guan smiled and said, "I have already told you what I should say before I came. Now that you've summoned your future comrades, let's go. ”
"Hmm."
Shirou nodded solemnly.
When he arrived, Zero Guan had already told him that an evil magician who had plundered a large number of children in other cities was coming to Fuyuki City, and that his mission with the "hero" was to patrol Fuyuki City, find the hiding place of this evil magician, defeat the other party, and save the stolen children if possible.
The task can be said to be very difficult!
Although Shirou was also puzzled, why didn't Zeroview give this task to the very powerful Loreleya and Vena, or simply let Rin Tosaka, the current head of the Tosaka family, who is nominally the manager of this land, do it. But at the thought of a fragile life facing the danger of death, he was immediately indignant and couldn't help but agree immediately.
In order to prevent a child from being killed while wasting his time, Shirou and Zeroguan immediately left with Artoria after a few words. (To be continued......)
