874 Snatch
After saying goodbye to Lindy and Precia, Claude embarks on a shuttle to Earth.
Unlike the dimensional fleet that sails in the starry sky, the number of people that the shuttle can carry is actually very small, and counting the maintenance personnel, there are only fifty, and all of them are sitting prosecutors who are out on a mission like Claude.
"Claude, you're being sent out again?"
Claude is also a regular customer of the shuttle, and as soon as he got on the plane, a female prosecutor who had a good relationship with Claude came over.
"Yes, I took on a troublesome task."
Claude nodded, and after finding a random seat to sit down, he was ready to close his eyes and rest for a while.
However, the female prosecutor clearly would not miss the opportunity to be alone with Claude - even though there was a prosecutor resting next door.
"Claude, don't sleep, talk to me, we haven't seen each other for two months."
"If I'm not mistaken, I just helped you solve an incident three weeks ago."
Although Claude spoke, his eyes did not open, and he was thinking about how the next task should be completed.
The female prosecutor also saw what Claude was thinking, pouted, and reluctantly ended the conversation.
Who knows, the female prosecutor was just about to rest, but Claude on the side suddenly opened her eyes.
"Yuna, I have something to ask you for."
"Huh?" After the stunned, there was an uncontrollable look of ecstasy, "No problem, wrap it up on me!" ”
The female prosecutor named Yuna didn't ask, so she agreed to it in a big way.
"Whether it's in love, getting married, or having a bang, it's all -- no problem!"
“……”
Looking at Yuna, whose face was flushed from overexcitement. and the rest of the prosecutors who looked over because of the conversation between the two. Claude suddenly felt. Did you make a mistake?
But the words have already been spoken, and stopping at this time gives people room for reverie.
"I remember Yuna, you were an immigrant from the other side of the earth."
"Well, I'm British, but my mother is of Oriental descent, so she has dark red hair. Then again, are you really going to meet your parents?! ”
"......" Faced with Yuna's increasingly excited appearance, Claude finally couldn't hold back, and interrupted the other party's delusion with a hand knife. I need your help to arrange an identity for me! ”
"Cut, that's true."
Yuna looked like she had already guessed Claude's intentions, and snorted, then raised her head again and smiled brightly.
"So how about arranging to be my husband? Anyway, my task can be completed in a day at most, and with me by your side, you can make it a lot easier, right? Yuna said with her palms clasped together and whispered in a voice that only she could hear, "By the way, it can also increase feelings." ”
“…… Never mind. If only you were willing to help. ”
In his past wanderings, Claude has not been to Earth. But that was a long time ago, when the earth was still in the era of the ancient kingdom and empire, and although technology was in its infancy, it was more of a dance of swords and blood.
When Claude was on Earth, he did not affect the normal development of the world, and it is strange to say that he was always very irritable in other planes, but he could get rare peace on Earth.
Now that I am revisiting the old place, I naturally have a different feeling.
After accompanying Yuna to complete and deliver the assignment, Claude came to Earth.
Yuna's parents had been taken to Midcherda a long time ago, and now they are living a fairly comfortable life there. However, Yuna prefers life on this side of the earth to Midcherda, because she often comes back to live, her home does not seem very empty, and the two-story villa has all the daily necessities of ordinary people's homes.
"Then, come with me to get a marriage certificate!"
"It's a 'fake'." Knocking Yuna's head, Claude asked for a head with a wry smile, "The task on my side is more troublesome, and the people above asked me to investigate the Holy Grail, but if I was just an ordinary person, there was no possibility of intervening in the Holy Grail War at all." ”
"So, you want to get the status of MASTER?"
After submitting her assignment, Yuna applied to join Claude's team, so she naturally knew a lot about some information.
"It's not hard to get the identity of the MASTER, I've tried to make two spells before."
As he spoke, Claude raised his right hand, and on his arm, two bright red marks appeared, which were the legendary 'Spell', a forgery of his information through the Guò Temporal and Space Administration.
Although it is called a 'forgery', it is no different from a real spell, the only problem is ......
"Unfortunately, I don't have the authority to summon Heroic Spirits."
Putting down his hand, Claude smiled helplessly.
"There are two ways to obtain Heroic Spirits, the most orthodox is to sign a contract with the consciousness of Earth or human beings, and rent a Heroic Spirit from them, and the other is to be selected by the Holy Grail as a contestant and then summon a Heroic Spirit."
"We can't do either, though." Yuna shrugged her shoulders, but a little devil-like smile appeared on her face, "However, it's not like there's no way. ”
"Yes, when someone summons the Heroic Spirit, we can just grab it."
Claude is not a good man, and once he has made up his mind, he doesn't care what other people think.
"It's overbearing, but I like it." Yuna pointed to the computer screen, which was displaying information about the participants in the Holy Grail War, "It just so happens that one of them is near us." ”
-- Kenneth. Al Meloy. Aqipolud.
A magician from the Clock Tower, whose strength has reached B level, although he is in the middle of the many MASTERS, but the Heroic Spirit has SS level or even above strength! He had just recently signed a marriage contract with the daughter of the Sofia family, and this was the time when he was at his most proud.
Unfortunately, this pride will come to an end tonight.
"MASTER, how's it going? Would you like to have a drink? I have to say. Modern sake is so delicious. The wine, the beauties, and the sea of stars, whirring, my blood seems to be boiling again! ”
"RIDER, SHUT UP!" Kenneth pinched his forehead, looking impatient, "I'm thinking about my next strategy." You're going to drink and go out for a drink! ”
"Cut, strategy or something, nothing at all in the face of absolute power."
The job manager pouted for RIDER's heroic spirit, and was about to run out with the barrel in his arms, but at this time.
Hum -
Hum -
Hum -
The alarm from the enchantment made Kenneth and RIDER's expressions change instantly, and without Kenneth's command, RIDER summoned his treasure, pulled Kenneth over, and rumbled out of the room.
And then. In the hallway, the two saw the intruder.
A man and a woman came. Dressed in a similar black uniform, the man had short black hair, while the woman had long, ear-length dark red hair, and even though she was just standing there, she felt like she was pressed against her chest.
"You're ......! Sola! ”
As a 'noble' magician, Kenneth was about to ask about the identities of the two people in front of him according to his understanding, but the next second, when he saw his fiancée lying next to the woman, he completely fell into anger.
"Bastard! I'm going to kill you! RIDER! ”
"Got it!"
MASTER and the servant is a glorious and lossy relationship, although not as good as the ancient monarchs, but not far behind, at this moment to see their master's fiancée was arrested, RIDER did not hesitate, a "across the era, come to me", and then used their most powerful treasure - the king's army!
In an instant, the surrounding scene changed.
The yellow sand is long, and the scorching sun is shining!
Behind RIDER and Kenneth, an army of tens of thousands of people appeared out of thin air, although it was not as good as RIDER, but everyone in the army had the strength of the Heroic Spirit, and it was with this power that the Heroic Spirit, who was named RIDER, was able to sweep the entire Eurasian and African continents in the past.
"Do you use a trick as soon as you come up?"
CLAUDE LOOKED AT THE ARMY BEHIND RIDER, ALTHOUGH HIS FACE WAS A LITTLE SURPRISED, BUT THERE WAS NO FEAR AT ALL.
Not only him, Yuna also did not have the slightest timidity, holding the guide device in her hand, countless magic arrays had appeared behind her at some point.
Midcherda-type, Beruka-type, tree thunder magic, and even magic on Earth!
"Yes...... GIVE RIDER TO ME? ”
Although he thought it was impossible, Claude still asked.
Kenneth replied with a furious voice.
"KILL HIM, RIDER!"
"Great!"
"Isn't it really good?"
Claude shook his head, after returning to Midcherda, he suppressed his strength to the SSS level, which was enough for him to face most enemies, and in fact, even an immortal, with his newly comprehended secret technique, was enough to challenge the next level.
"Well, let's move a little."
In the face of the tens of millions of troops rushing towards him, Claude raised his hand without a little fear, and immediately, an invisible energy quickly transmitted to the surroundings with him as the origin.
The energy passed, and all the enemies were stagnant in place, and in the next second, the energy suddenly exploded, and some Heroic Spirits who were only A-level and B-level were blown back to Valhalla at once.
When the dust stirred up by the explosion fell, the army of tens of thousands of people was left with less than 100 people.
“……”X2
Seeing that the original numerical advantage was erased in the blink of an eye, RIDER was fine, but Kenneth was already terrified.
"Who the hell are you?!"
It shouldn't be! The Holy Grail War is clearly three days away, so why is anyone fighting now?
No, their goal is ......
KENNETH LOOKED AT RIDER BESIDE HIM.
"You, are you trying to rob my Heroic Spirit?"
"Although the strength is not good, the brain is okay." The magic array behind Yuna kept lighting up, and while harvesting the rest of the army, she replied with a smile, "We wanted to participate in the Holy Grail War, but we weren't chosen as MASTER, so ......"
"Do you want to snatch the spells and spirits of other masters?"
Kenneth smiled bitterly, his original ambition completely dissipated after seeing the strength of the two people in front of him, he was not stupid, he could become a lecturer in the clock tower, although he was arrogant, he also had extraordinary wisdom.
IF YOU GIVE UP RIDER, YOU AND SOLA MAY STILL HAVE A CHANCE TO SURVIVE WITHOUT GIVING UP......
"LET ME AND MY FIANCÉE GO, AND I WILL TRANSFER OWNERSHIP OF RIDER TO YOU."
IN THE END, KENNETH MADE A WISE DECISION, AND RIDER BESIDE HIM DIDN'T SAY ANYTHING THE WHOLE TIME.
The handover ritual was simple, and although Kenneth cried out in pain from the pain of the Stripping Spell, it was nothing compared to life.
"THEN, PLEASE ADVISE, RIDER."
Erasing Kenneth and Sora's memories, Claude looks at his own Heroic Spirit.
"I don't understand, don't mention the women around you for the time being, but you do have more strength than me, so why do you need me to ......"
"Because I want to be in the Holy Grail War."
"With your strength, what else can't you rely on yourself?"
"A lot, a lot ......"
The conversation didn't last long, although RIDER changed to a MASTER, but it wasn't a big deal for him who was open-minded by nature, he was originally here to participate in the Holy Grail War, as long as it wasn't the exact opposite personality, it didn't matter who MASTER was.
In the days leading up to the Holy Grail War, Claude spent the next few days searching for books on curses in the libraries of various magical families, eventually finding clues in a book that had lost its cover.
- That's a demon! The demon who seduces humanity to fall! Even an angel will fall into hell under its whispers, and even an elf will demonize madness because of its existence!
――Who is it? Who created that book! That book that will ruin miè a qiē! Dark Book!
- Damn! Has the curse begun? It's too late, I'm going to kill them all before the curse spreads!
- Adults, children, males, women...... How many people did I kill? But why? Why does the curse still not go away? More and more people are getting caught up in the curse!
- Hahahahaha! So that's it! So that's it!
- I was the first to be infected with the curse! As long as I don't die! The curse will be passed on forever!
- Hehehehehe! Come on! Death! I'm not afraid of you! I'll devour you! I am the master of death!
It was a person's diary, and due to its age, only a few lines could be read clearly, but even so, Claude could still feel the power between the lines, the ...... The power of the curse!
Although he did not find a specific solution to the curse, Claude was not too discouraged, he flew to Fuyuki City, Japan, and was about to join Yuna and RIDER, who arrived first, but the next second, the whole world suddenly came to a standstill.
"Yo, long time no see, little ghost." (To be continued......)
