Chapter 568 A Cry from Strawberry Underwear (FGO players! The server opened early! Time to gacha!)
Tokyo, Haneda Airport.

"Really, isn't there even anyone to greet us?"

Having spent almost the entire day on a plane, El-Melloi II (Weber), who was not yet thirty but already showed signs of "death from overwork," looked around, his long hair flying in the wind.

"It seems the Tohsaka family is also without a successor~"

A young man with short blond hair peeked out from behind the overworked man, looking on with curiosity, as this was his first time visiting an Asian country.

Fratacecaldes, Waver's core disciple, is a highly talented but eccentric individual whose thought process is too chaotic.

As a monarch, and on a dangerous transnational mission, Weber would naturally not act alone; he had the authority to bring his disciples along.

Although Frat is still a newcomer among the many disciples, his talent and ability are enough to make him a core member.

Besides the little blondie, Waver also brought his bodyguards. After all, this investigation not only required facing the curse of the Holy Grail, but also had a high probability of directly confronting the Servants and Masters of the Fifth Holy Grail War. Although he had become a monarch, Waver was still very weak in melee combat.

Webber flicked the little golden retriever's forehead with his finger, neither responding nor denying it.

It must be said that Tokiomi Tohsaka's death will indeed be a huge blow to the Tohsaka family. Currently, there is only a little girl as the guardian of Fuyuki's land, and she also has to face the Holy Grail War and the Holy Grail Curse at the same time. Just thinking about it is enough to give one a headache.

Combined with the intelligence report that some Heroic Spirits had already clashed with each other using the Divine Age Noble Phantasms in Fuyuki City, leaving behind huge, unmanageable marks, Waver judged that the young head of the Tohsaka family was probably already overwhelmed and had no time for the usual social niceties.

"It looks like we'll have to figure out how to get to Fuyuki City ourselves."

The magnanimous monarch said this to those around him.

After all, he had been here once ten years ago, and it had a profound impact on his life. Even if he wanted to forget it, it would be difficult. Therefore, Waver still kept the specific route to Fuyuki City in his mind.

"Teacher! How do we get there?!"

Flatt, still rubbing his forehead, remained enthusiastic.

"Only the Shinkansen is left."

Weber replied irritably.

If you take the Shinkansen, the journey takes about 3 hours one way, not including transfers, and that's already considered a relatively fast direct route.

If you take a bus or other vehicle on the highway, the journey could take up to eight or nine hours.

This was indeed quite a ordeal for them, who had just gotten off the plane.

Suddenly, Flatt's expression sharpened, and he looked to his left as if he had sensed something unusual.

Weber, who was familiar with the state of his students, also looked over and saw someone who could be considered a colleague.

“Ms. Bazette Fragamacremys”.

"Lord El-Melloi".

The way they addressed each other was quite formal, which suggests that they were not familiar with each other.

Just as Waver had predicted, Rin Tohsaka was extremely busy, and the gems she had were visibly being consumed as the price for releasing magic.

Although the crater is still there and cannot be covered up in a short time, the news has not spread widely, and the people of Fuyuki City have gradually begun to ignore it and go back to their normal lives.

Rin Tohsaka has completely forgotten about the matter, so naturally Cheng Tian will take charge of part of it. After all, the materials were submitted in Bazett's name, and the outside help they found should be taken seriously.

Cheng Tian couldn't leave his post, because he had to keep an eye on Qiuqiu to prevent her from turning into Fuyuki Laoba, and at the same time, he had to keep an eye on the battles between the local Masters and Servants.

So the job of picking people up fell to Bazett.

In fact, besides providing a space for Utan and Aozaki Touko to communicate and begin technical exchanges on dolls and bio-mechanical dolls, Cheng Tian also tried to deliver the information that the Holy Grail had been corrupted to other Masters and Servants through various means.

Cheng Tian's idea was somewhat naive. He thought that once the Masters and Servants learned that the cup had been contaminated by black mud, even if they didn't unite to fight against the Black Cup, they would at least stay away from it to avoid being contaminated.

But the truth is, some people, when they see poop-like poop, insist on convincing themselves that it's chocolate and even go over to taste it to see if it's salty or bland.

Some people think that since the Holy Grail is cursed, wouldn't purifying it make it still a good wish-granting machine? Wouldn't a purified Holy Grail still be able to grant wishes?
All I can say is that they are driven by insatiable desires and blinded by greed, refusing to turn back even after hitting a brick wall.

Apart from a few Servant Masters, the vast majority of them appeared in the Fifth Holy Grail War with strong desires.

If their desire for the Holy Grail can be easily extinguished with a few words, then it proves that their desire for the Holy Grail is not actually strong. From this perspective, it is a paradox to make the participants in the Holy Grail War give up the Holy Grail.

However, even though Cheng Tian was no longer personally involved, a series of special circumstances still occurred within just a few days.

The fake Assassin, who was originally bound to the gate of Ryudouji Temple and given the name "Sasaki Kojiro," and the real Caster, who was stationed at Ryudouji Temple and named "Medea," both disappeared without a trace within a day.

They are probably already dead, but we don't know who did it yet.

Cheng Tian suspected that Kirei Kotomine might be behind it, but he couldn't detect it. Furthermore, when he contacted the Blue Lancers, he discovered a peculiar situation.

That was Kirei Kotomine, who deliberately blocked the contractual connection between him and Cú Chulainn.

The Master Contract is still intact, but the connection has been severed, and Cú Chulainn has no idea where Kirei has gone.

Based on this information, Cheng Tian deduced that Kirei Kotomine's most likely hiding place was the large hollow inside Mount Enzo, where Ryudouji Temple is located, which is also the location of the spiritual veins, the Holy Grail, and the black mud.

Only this place could shield him from his sense of dominance, and at the same time, it was enough to make him dare not rush in.

Although Cheng Tian himself has a high resistance to black mud, it does not mean that he is willing to voluntarily crawl into the black mud to take a bath.

Currently, the souls of Gilgamesh, Kojiro Sasaki, and Medea have been recovered, so theoretically, the incomplete descent of the Holy Grail can be forcibly initiated.

From this perspective, the underground cavern has become a cursed, chain-reaction magical bomb that can be detonated at any time!

For safety's sake, we should wait for professionals to handle it.

Through a phone call, Cheng Tian learned that Bazette had already picked up the person, and the problem was not far from being resolved.

However, just as Cheng Tian and Qiu Qiu were fighting each other using their substitutes, the blue swordsman, whom they hadn't had a chance to officially meet before—namely, "King Arthur Artoria"—came to their door with her Master.

The moment Artoria saw Cheng Tian, ​​she was somewhat dazed, as if she saw the figure of a bearded man in Cheng Tian.

Cheng Tian also reacted—

The strawberry underwear he inherited from Arthur shimmered with a faint glow.
