In Arthur's previous life, there was a saying, "Cutting off people's wealth is like killing someone's parents, and this hatred is not shared!" ”

If something really goes wrong with the Holy Grail Wars game closed beta, the game won't be able to go through a second closed beta for at least three months.

It also meant that Arthur had to delay his earnings for three months.

He is a person who has to consume gold gallons every day to continue his life, how can he tolerate this kind of thing!

And as a person in Sequence 8: Mind Reader, he actually made people do something to their Holy Grail War game right under their noses.

It's really embarrassing for the audience.

"Arthur, can you do it alone?"

Cedric immediately asked.

In an instant, the entire chamber fell silent, and when the Wesley twins heard this, they all looked at Arthur.

Although they did not speak, their attitude has been indicated.

If Arthur alone can't fight against the mastermind behind the trouble, then the three of them, as Arthur's partners, must do their best to help Arthur, whether it is for righteousness or responsibility.

Arthur didn't speak, and after sorting through the messy pile of papers on the table, he picked up Hermione's ancient magic book from the bottom and summoned Artoria.

Then he swept the eyes of the three people in turn, and said in a calm tone.

"Can we no! The man who could make Hermione summon Artoria under the noses of us and our partners must be a terrifying wizard. I don't want anything to happen to you. ”

"But you're alone?"

Cedric, who is the most Gryffindor-like in Hufflepuff House, immediately retorted. But halfway through the words, he realized that his strength really couldn't help Arthur.

His face instantly turned gloomy, and he lowered his head and blamed himself.

"Cedric, you're here to compete in the Herbology Tournament and win the championship for Hogwarts."

"You don't have to worry about this matter. Arthur, if he can't do it alone, we're still here! ”

George and Fred stood on either side of Cedric, clapping their hands heavily on his shoulders and comforting them.

When the plan was first made, Cedric wasn't given much work. After he distributes the magic camera to the house-elves, his mission is complete.

In the entire Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, the only people who participated in the Herbology Knowledge Tournament were a third-year student and a Ravenclaw sixth-year senior.

But after coming to Durmstrang College, the sixth-grader has been admitted to Durmstrang School Hospital because of the lack of adaptation. The day after tomorrow is the Herbal Medicine Knowledge Championship, and it is still a question whether that senior sister can participate, let alone win the championship.

It was because of this bad news that Cedric, who was usually sunny and confident, began to get nervous.

Hogwarts Herbology Professor Sprout was the head of his Hufflepuff House, and Cedric, a member of Hufflepuff House, was eager to win the Herbology Championship trophy for himself, the Headmaster, and the whole of Hogwarts.

"You..."

Touched by his friends' encouragement, Cedric nodded to the Wesley Twins before speaking to Arthur.

"I'll come to your aid without delaying the game."

As a member of the game's production team, even if the members comforted him and told him that he didn't need his help, he himself did not allow himself not to lend a helping hand when the team was in trouble.

"No, you don't need help. Your tasks have already been arranged. I'll just take care of that. To say that you are inferior is not to comfort you. It's that I really don't want any surprises to you. ”

Arthur knew they had misunderstood what he meant, so he repeated it, this time more bluntly.

The person who ruined the closed beta of his Holy Grail War game, even he and Grindelwald didn't notice it, that means that his strength is very strong, and if you really want to involve Cedric and Wesley, they will definitely be very dangerous.

"We've known each other since the beginning of the school year, don't you have such no faith in me?"

Seeing the gloomy faces of the three of them, Arthur said again.

"You do your own thing, which is the greatest help to me. If you want the Holy Grail War game to be played by more people, the data from this closed beta test is very important. Believe in me and believe in yourself. We will definitely succeed in this closed beta. ”

】

Urging Sequence 8: The Mind Reader's abilities, Arthur begins to regain confidence in who is in front of him, convincing them that Arthur can solve this problem...

......

Durmstrang had a cold winter, and as a living dead, Arthur had just stepped out of the castle and within a few minutes he could clearly feel his body begin to stiffen.

But he held back the cold, withstood the biting cold wind, and continued to walk towards the mountain ahead.

Approaching a boulder, Arthur tapped lightly on the boulder, and as the spell on it vanished, a small black hole appeared in front of him.

Arthur, as a twelve-year-old boy with a height of only 1.51, could only bend down and walk slowly towards the cave in front of this short black hole.

"Kreacher, there's something you need help with."

Looking at the elderly house-elf who appeared in front of him, holding a torch, Arthur spoke slowly.

Kreacher, who had been wandering around Arthur since he had last begged Arthur to help him find the body of his little master.

He does not have the ability to obtain valuable items for Arthur from the Blake family, so he can only ask Arthur to help him several times.

This time, Arthur came to Durmstrang to participate in the Wizarding World Student Exchange, and he also used his own channels to follow.

Arthur didn't know that Kreacher had come to Durmstrang until last night after lunch, when a house-elf from Durmstrang told Arthur that Kreacher was here.

Now, that mysterious enemy is hiding in the shadows, and Arthur will have a hard time finding him. So he also needs a helper to hide in the shadows.

"Lord Pendragon, if only you could help me recover the body of my little master. I'm willing to do anything for you! ”

Kreacher pleaded again.

"Help me find the real owner of this book. When you get back to Hogwarts, I'll help you bring back Regulus's body. ”

Arthur handed Kreacher the ancient spellbook he had summoned Artoria from Hermione to Kreacher, and replied in a deep voice.

He had studied the book carefully, and he hadn't found the summoning spells and magic circles that Hermione was talking about. At the same time, he did not find any traces of human tampering from the book.

Of course, he could use his writing skills to find out the owner of the book. But his writing skills these days have to be used for other more important things.

So the task of finding the owner of this book was left to Kreacher.

Arthur remembers that in the later stages of Harry Potter, Kreacher easily brought the thief who broke into Blake's house back to Harry and the others.

So Arthur has great trust in Kreacher's ability to find people.

"Yes, Lord Pendragon. I will definitely help you find the true owner of this book. ”

When Kreacher heard that Arthur had finally agreed to help him recover the body of his little master, he couldn't control his emotions for a moment and burst into tears.

He stretched out his small, shriveled pale hand and took the book from Arthur's hand.

The cold wind that broke into the cave blew the swaying torches, flickering and dimming.

Arthur looked at Kreacher, who had regained his divine light, and nodded slightly. Then he turned and walked out of the cave.

Upon returning to the Hogwarts common room, George approached Arthur and told him that the remaining game participants and servants had all appeared.

The closed beta of this Holy Grail War game has officially begun.

The seven participants and their followers are:

Hermione Granger of Hogwarts, Saber Artoria Pendragon of Servant

Ruth *** of Falmorny, Servant Archer Jacob Green (Grimm's Fairy Tale Author)

Fleur Delacour of Beauxbatons, Joan of Arc of Slave Lancer (Beauxbatons Ghost)

Durmstrang's Alai Fields, Rider Blackbeard (famous pirate Titch)

Ichiro Oda of the Magic Institute, Servant Caster Service Kokaku (Japanese Onmyoji)

Pansy Parkinson of Hogwarts, Barrow the Bloody of Berserker (Hogwarts Ghosts)

Tom Ming of Castrobusche, Servant Peeves (Hogwarts Ghost)

"Headache, how did Pansy participate in the game, Servant or Berserker... Barrot the Bloodyman, the ghost of Slytherin, is indeed a good fit for her. ”

After parting ways with George, Arthur knocked on Pansy's dorm door. It's still half past eight in the evening, and most of the students are outside the dormitory.

The schoolgirls who live with Pansy seem to have gone to some kind of sorority. Pansy was left alone in the dormitory.

"Why are you participating in this game too?"

After looking at Barrow, the bloody man hidden next to Pansy's bed, Arthur gently touched Pansy's forehead and whispered.

"I'm going to prove that I've gotten stronger lately!" Pansy opened her eyes, looked at William's kind face, and said in a deep voice.

Her tone was very weak because of her poor health. But the words are powerful, representing her strong determination.

"I can see your progress. There's no need to make yourself so tired. ”

Noticing that the warm baby on Pansy's belly had become cold, Arthur pulled out his wand, heated it up, and put it back on her belly.

"There's a little bit of a glitch in the in-game beta this time, so you'd better not go to Hermione first. Her servants are not our own, and they are very dangerous. ”

After Arthur finished speaking, he clearly sensed Pansy's gloomy face, and explained again.

"I know what you're thinking, but now is not the time to be pushy. I don't want you to get hurt, you should know what I mean. ”

With that, Arthur took Pansy's small hand in the palm of his hand and waited quietly for his response.

"I see... As long as she doesn't come to me for trouble, I won't take the initiative to find her..."

Pansy put away the unwillingness on her face and whispered.

Arthur's words were so obvious that if she couldn't hear them again, then there was no need to follow Arthur anymore.

With Arthur's words, she was already satisfied, even if Arthur asked her to give up this Holy Grail War game now. She wouldn't hesitate to say yes.

"Hmm... I'll stay with you a little longer. Do you need to go to the toilet? ”

Arthur nodded, then thought about Pansy's current mobility and asked.

"Need..."

Pansy's face flushed, and her voice became lower than the sound of a mosquito.

Seeing this, Arthur uncovered the futon, picked Pansy up, and walked towards the dormitory bathroom......

Late at night, William sat alone in front of the fireplace in the Hogwarts common room, writing a line in his journal in the flickering light of the fire.

"There may be an element of surprise, but this game of the Holy Grail War will come to an end..."

As the two magic gems in his other hand shattered, Arthur calmed down and breathed a sigh of relief.

It was a simple sentence, but it cost him two magic gems and most of his body's physical strength to successfully activate his writing ability.

Two magic gems, these are the magic gems that Arthur has been accumulating for a long time.

He had accumulated a total of three, and had previously used one in the Realm of the Sun against Kaslovsky of the Russian School of Witchcraft and Wizardry in Kodosdos.

Now activate the writing ability, making the results of the closed beta of this Holy Grail War game a foregone conclusion, and the remaining two are consumed.

Again, there are two fewer hole cards, although it is a bit distressing. But it's well worth it to ensure that the closed beta ends smoothly.

"Today's writing power has been exhausted, and if you want to continue to activate, you have to spend a lot of money."

Arthur looked at his previous handwriting in the diary and said secretly in his heart.

He didn't know the details of who was behind the scenes, and if he didn't know the enemy's situation, if he dared to use money to activate his writing ability, the amount of money consumed would be more than he could afford.

It's only the first day of the game, the first day of the exchange, and Grindelwald's plot hasn't been revealed yet.

If you start using money to activate your writing ability now, what about later?

Since using money to activate his writing ability, Arthur has found that regardless of the difficulty, the cost of krypton gold is 10% higher than before.

The purpose of participating in this exchange meeting is to make money. Instead of saddling him with huge debts again.

If it's just to find out who is behind it right away, it's not worth it to take on a huge debt.

He is no longer the teenager who didn't have any power at the beginning, and he has to rely on the audience when he encounters problems.

Now that he's strong enough to defeat an adult wizard, why not find out who is behind it yourself?

And to figure out why Grindelwald suddenly held a student exchange meeting for the wizarding world at Durmstrang School of Witchcraft and Wizardry.

It's like a puzzle game. Rather than wizarding duels and life-and-death duels, Arthur prefers this sense of accomplishment after solving the mystery little by little.

As long as he hasn't really encountered an unsolvable dilemma, he won't ask the audience for help.

After becoming a Sequence 8: Mind Reader, he finds that his will begins to instinctively reject the viewer, seemingly with that feeling of rejection of the same kind.

Arthur didn't know why, but his instincts grew up. Since his intuition has become wary of the audience, he must also try not to ask the audience for help.

"You've finally grown... I am very happy. ”

Suddenly, the handwriting on the diary in front of Arthur began to distort, and the audience appeared in front of them with a smiley expression......
