Type-Moon: My Destiny Guide

Thus, amidst the hustle and bustle and a series of unexpected events, the first day of the holiday came to an end.

As the sun sets, a bonfire burns brightly beneath a notice board that reads, "The venue for the first Magical Girls, Servants, and Master Fujimaru's BBQ gathering."

After a busy day, the group gathered together, their laughter masking a hint of seriousness.

Because now is the time for the Holy Grail to reveal the results of last night's Werewolf game.

"Ding." A notification sound rang out, and soon a light screen appeared in front of everyone.

[Results of Day 1 Night: Christmas Eve]

"what?!"

Chapter 349 The Struggle for Sheriff

Chapter 350 The Struggle for Sheriff

As the saying goes, play is play, joke is joke, but don't joke about games.

Especially dangerous games like this, where one wrong move could lead to the loss of one's morals.

The campfire burned quietly, crackling occasionally. The night breeze was refreshing, carrying fragrance as it blew across the round table, painting a picture of eyes meeting and clashing.

The days of concerted effort have ended, dusk has fallen, and man, god, and wolf must fight for their victory, even at the cost of the sacrifice of others.

The first night has passed, and the Holy Grail has announced the result of the first night: Christmas Eve.

As the name suggests, it means that no player died that night.

The possibilities that can be extended from this point are numerous—perhaps the witch saved the person, or the werewolf did not kill the person, or... the Dream Weaver's protection took effect.

As a dream hunter, Shuoyue's first reaction was that she had done the right thing by protecting Lixiang. The werewolf attacked Lixiang at night, but failed because of her protection.

Following this line of reasoning, there are two possibilities: either Ritsuka is not a werewolf, but was chosen by one, or Ritsuka is a werewolf who is about to kill herself to trick the witch into giving her the potion and gaining her trust.

However, all of this is based on the premise that the werewolves take action and the witch does not save anyone; otherwise, if the logical basis is wrong, the game will almost certainly fail.

"That's the fun of Werewolf. How many changes are hidden in the unobserved black box? And who can cut through the fog of lies and pretense to uncover the treasure called truth from day and night?"

With a hint of excitement, Shuoyue whispered, her eyes sharp as she swept over the group of people with varying expressions.

During the discussion, the Holy Grail system will provide a virtual panel to display everyone's number and information, and the number of the new moon is exactly 1.

Number 2 is Kojiro, number 3 is Cú Chulainn, number 4 is Diarmuid, number 5 is Mash, number 6 is Fujimaru Ritsuka, number 7 is Artoria, number 8 is Tamamo-no-Mae, number 9 is Kiyohime, number 10 is Mordred, number 11 is Illya, number 12 is Miyu, and number 13 is Chloe.

At this moment, everyone was sitting in front of the huge round table projected by the new moon, and the last one, namely contestant number 14 Draco, happened to be sitting next to the new moon.

Noticing Draco's gaze, Shuoyue tilted her head in confusion: "What's wrong?"

"I'm wondering whether I should bite you to death," Draco said expressionlessly, then turned his head away, no longer looking at him.

"Bite me to death? Why? Is it because of something I did during the day... No, this is a discussion, it's a game of Werewolf."

In other words, Draco knew something to say that to me.

What do I have that makes her wary? The Dream Weaver is on the good side, which means Draco is a werewolf... No, if he's a werewolf, there's no reason he would know my identity. Even the Wolf King doesn't have the ability to foresee the future.

Prophetic abilities? Could it be...? But why would she say that...?

Switching from holiday mode to serious mode, Shuoyue pondered and quickly deduced most of Draco's logic, even making reverse inferences about her identity.

"Hey, don't just stand there spacing out." Draco, unaware of what Shuoyue was thinking, felt a tug at her sleeve. Taking advantage of the Holy Grail System's inaction, she whispered, "Explain this game to me, how exactly do you play it?"

Introduction? The little red dragon, who's never interested in anything, actually asked me to explain the rules?

Would she be this proactive if she were an ordinary person?

Shuoyue's eyes flashed strangely for a moment, then quickly returned to normal.

"Of course, no problem. Let's hear my opinion."

The most important factors in identifying an identity are the following: first, the state and perspective; second, the behavior; and finally, the configuration.

In terms of their demeanor, those who draw the Divine card sometimes exhibit striking polarization. Some try their best to conceal their identity, while others directly step forward to lead the team; these latter individuals are generally quite confident in their setup. On the other hand, those who want to hide their identity will try their best to disguise themselves as a commoner, resulting in a slightly weaker speaking style.

Some identity cards, due to the advantage of their hidden cards, speak with an inherent sense of justice; others will deliberately act a little pretentious, pretending to be very nervous while saying they are a civilian, and they are also likely identity cards.

In general, players whose speech fluctuates greatly and whose state swings between extremes are most likely those who are playing a role, while those who remain calm from beginning to end are most likely ordinary players.

"Oh." Draco seemed thoughtful, then suddenly pointed with his small hand to the ahoge (cowlick) opposite her, which was Artoria, the number 7. "So that means that guy is either a wolf or a god?"

"Hmm? What do you mean..." Shuoyue looked over subconsciously, then shook her head helplessly, "Yes, that guy is too easy to understand."

Looking around, after the daytime buffer, those who were prepared remained calm, searching for clues through conversation and probing. Even those who were not good at pretending sat upright, and although they were all struggling to hold back, at least they didn't let others easily see through their facade.

But only the Ahoge-King, her ahoge (cowlick) swayed restlessly, her eyes darted around, and her whole body was tense. If anyone even touched her lightly…

"Miss Artoria, what do you think? Is it because the witch used the antidote last night that no one died?"

"Ah! Master! Um... I... um... maybe it's like this, ahaha..." Ritsuka patted his shoulder, startling him so much that he jumped up from his seat. Then, reminded by the Holy Grail System, he sat back down shakily, looking as suspicious as could be.

Her movements quickly attracted everyone's attention. Seeing that the king was becoming increasingly uneasy, Shuoyue sighed and rubbed her forehead.

"That's what makes our game special. Few of you here are familiar with Werewolf. In other words, everyone here, except for me, is a complete novice."

Being a novice means uncertainty, it means reckless and impulsive behavior. Novices are more impulsive and unpredictable than veterans, but they are also easier to understand and control.

"Is this your reason for confidently offering the Holy Grail as the prize? Because you have a huge advantage in this game?"

"Of course, but if someone really tries to drag me down with them, I'll accept it. After all, the prize is a wish granted by the Holy Grail, not the Holy Grail itself."

"You really are... quite prudent."

"Excellent."

Just then, the Holy Grail System spoke up again.

[All players who wish to join the police force, please raise your hands. A 30-second countdown is now beginning.]

The term "going on the police force" refers to the activity of players running for sheriff and competing for the sheriff badge during the first day. The sheriff will have the final vote and a 1.5x advantage in voting. After dying, the sheriff can choose another player on the field to continue the role of sheriff.

Regarding the ownership of the police badge, a school of thought called "badge flow" has emerged. Since people who die at night do not leave a last word, a prophet can pass on his information about the deceased by giving the badge when he is elected sheriff and has no last words.

Shuoyue didn't hide this knowledge; instead, she spoke openly about it, letting everyone know.

Only by understanding the rules can one utilize them, and once they proceed in accordance with the rules, it will be much easier for Shuoyue to deduce their actions.

Perhaps introducing the issue at this point was a bit of an overreaction, because when the deliberation time ended, most people raised their hands to indicate that they wanted to run for sheriff.

The players who have joined the police force are: #1 Sakuya, #3 Cu Chulainn, #6 Ritsuka, #7 Artoria, #10 Mordred, #13 Chloe, and #11 Illya, a total of seven players.

[Players will speak in reverse order, starting with player number 11]

"Huh, me?" Chloe was taken aback. The countdown projected above the round table had already started, and she couldn't help but panic.

"Ah... well, actually I was just joining in the fun. Anyway, I'm not a werewolf, let's move on."

Just as Shuoyue had predicted, the disadvantages of novice players participating in Werewolf became apparent at this time. It wasn't just Xiao Hei who spoke casually; when it was Ilya's turn, who hadn't had time to prepare, her speech was completely uninformative. Although Ilya tried her best to appear serious, Shuoyue felt that she was more like she was running for class monitor.

Mordred probably raised her hand specifically to target her 'dad,' but she ended up speaking in reverse order, with the ahoge (cowlick) speaking after her. After rambling on for a while, the ahoge also retreated in a sorry state. The ahoge's speech was decent, but due to his lack of experience and the fact that it was only the first day, he couldn't provide much information.

So, it was contestant number 6's turn, Fujimaru Ritsuka's turn.

"The first night is number 5, which is Mashu's gold water. Tonight, we'll test number 7, Artoria. If I die, then Ms. Artoria is a good person, and her badge number is 7. Otherwise, the badge will be torn up."

After a series of amateur contestants, Ritsuka, a modern person, gave a truly valuable speech.

Here comes the interesting part.

Shuoyue sat up straight without making a sound, her gaze intense.

The term "good guy" refers to a player who is identified as a good person by the seer at night when their identity is checked.

So here's the question—is Fujimaru Ritsuka a prophet?

Or was she a werewolf who deliberately revealed herself to lure out the real seer?

While everyone else looked at Ritsuka, subconsciously waiting for her to speak, Sakuzuki deliberately looked at everyone except Ritsuka, catching their expressions.

Then, a conclusion is drawn.

Chapter 350 The True Prophet is

Chapter 351 The real prophet is...

The badge flow is a technique that only prophets can use. Since Ritsuka chose the badge flow, it means that she is declaring her identity as a prophet.

The moment Ritsuka mentioned the badge flow, Sakuzuki looked around, especially at Draco, trying to verify her guess by observing their expressions.
