The robin looked at Potio curiously:
"As far as I know, this Holy Grail War should have only extended invitations to family members, company executives, and the Starship."
"In other words, it's the decision-makers at Pinocone."
Upon hearing this, Potio patted his chest proudly and said:
“Am I, Mr. Pam, not a member of the Star Train?”
"..."
Seeing the robin standing there in a daze, Potio stopped teasing her:
"Okay, that's definitely not the reason."
"Actually, I don't know what happened, but that old darling actually sent an invitation to Liumeng Reef as well."
"Gallach was worried about a trap, so he discussed it with Mikey and decided to give me the invitation directly."
"I understand," the robin said thoughtfully.
“Mr. Mikael and Mr. Gallagher have a great deal of trust in you.”
“Of course! I’m on very good terms with the Nameless Guest,” Portio said with a smug smile.
"I've been a part of all the recent disasters in Pinocchio. Whether it was Sunday or the Monkey Day..."
"Uh, sorry, look at my loveless mouth, why did I bring this up with you?"
Upon realizing that the robin's brother was Sunday, Potio quickly changed the subject:
"In short, I have no interest in the Holy Grail or anything like that, but the Holy Grail War sounds too damn dangerous."
“Indeed,” the robin said seriously. “I feel the same way.”
Potio thought for a moment, then continued:
"Summoning the dead from their graves to fight each other, with the winner taking all?"
"These rules for the competition, which involve raising animals with noses, are completely incompatible with my own thinking; they're typical of a cute little office worker."
"Now that I've accepted Mika's request for help, I must do my best to prevent things from getting out of control."
"Alright, it's time to get ready."
Potio bids farewell to the robin.
"I'm going to summon heroic spirits now. See you later!"
In the lounge, Scott's face turned green after reading it.
He said in a trembling voice:
"This person is... the wanted criminal Potio?"
He turned around and looked at old Audi with great fear.
"Mr. Audi, could you... could you revoke his qualification?"
"It's far too dangerous to involve a wanted criminal in the Holy Grail War... What if he wishes for the entire company to die instantly? That would be the end of us!"
Seeing that Scott was panicking again, old Emperor Auermann patiently advised him:
"Kid, are you assuming this cowboy will win the Holy Grail War? That's not a good way to diminish your own morale."
"Once the invitation is accepted and the Command Seals are imprinted, the qualification as a Master cannot be revoked."
Upon hearing this, Scott anxiously said:
"Then please send out hunting dogs immediately and strike hard against this wanted criminal!"
"Hohohoho~" Old Emperor sat on the sofa, unmoved.
"But Mr. Portio is right. He also participated in the rescue of Pinocchio twice. He is our hero."
"To rashly launch an attack on him would not be a proper course of action."
"...Why is Mr. Scott so wary of this guy?"
This question made Scott lower his head in embarrassment.
"Uh... because of some minor personal grudges, he was particularly brutal when he attacked our colleagues in the department."
"Hohoho~"
"Isn't this the perfect opportunity for you to avenge your colleagues?"
Old Ao Di said with a smile:
"Please do your best to win and bring this arrogant cowboy down with a vengeance."
Although the Pinocchio tycoon spoke politely, he left Scott no room to back down.
The enemy is strong? So what?
Scott took a deep breath to calm himself, then gritted his teeth and said:
"Okay...okay!"
"Don't worry, Mr. Audi. Let alone a mere Potio! As long as the traps and schemes are well prepared, even Louis Fleming is nothing more than a lamb to the slaughter!"
"Mmm~! Okay! Okay! Okay!"
Old Man O'Brien slowly clapped his hands, cheering for Scott:
"Hehehe! Your ruthless methods remind me of my younger days!"
Scott immediately turned around and looked at the third television monitor.
At first glance, this looks like the observation car of the Starry Sky Train.
At this moment, the train conductor, Pam, was diligently sweeping the floor of the carriage with a small broom.
"Which passenger littered again? When I catch him, I'll make him copy the train hygiene rules a hundred times!"
"Huh?" It moved the broom aside, looked at the ground, and suddenly paused.
"Pinocchonne's First Holy Grail War... cordially invites the Star Train to participate?"
"Yan Huan and the passengers on March 7th will definitely be very interested in this kind of fun."
Pam picked up the envelope and paused for a moment.
"Hmm, wait a minute, it seems like they're not here."
"How about we give it to passengers Walter and Himeko... Oh, and passengers on Sunday might also be interested."
"Huh? Why is there graffiti on Pam's hand?!"
"Why can't I get it clean? Who played this prank on me?!"
Before Scott could even complain, Old Man Auer was stunned by what he saw on TV.
"Huh...?"
"I never thought that the invitation I sent to the train would only be discovered now."
"No wonder those two kids said they didn't see it..."
Scott stared at Pam on the television and felt a chill run down his spine.
"Tsk, this is truly a reversal of moral order!"
"Animals on the Starry Sky Train can actually qualify for the competition...?"
Seeing this, Greedy finally spoke.
He asked Audi:
"Mr. Audi, should I handle this as a priority?"
"No need," Old Emperor regained his composure and smiled faintly.
"Isn't it interesting to have players like this compete?"
Scott then went to the two television sets behind him.
Following the order, this should be the screen used to monitor Yan Huan and March 7th.
But it's still flashing with snowflakes, and there's no content at all.
"Wait, wait, wait...Greddy, are you even capable? How come you can't even watch the two most important ones?!"
Chapter 1512 I, Scott, will also block the door!
"Hehe, I was quite surprised by that too."
Greta smiled faintly:
"However, the stage has indeed been set up, and the characters have all come on stage."
“Master, there seem to be some underlying concerns about this Holy Grail War for both of us.”
"Some?" Scott's face darkened.
"I feel like I won't live more than five minutes, you know that?!"
"Haha, no need to panic so much," Grady said calmly.
"Although looking at the backstories of these characters, they can be mainly divided into three categories: those who are in competition with your department, those who have personal grudges against your department, and those who are your mortal enemies."
"In other words, from a narratological perspective, every participant we have identified so far will target you immediately."
"It's us! Don't try to distance yourself!" Scott roared.
"Can't you say something useful? Do you think I don't know that everyone here has a grudge against me?!"
Old Emperor sat quietly to the side, smiling slightly:
"A little bit of personal experience: not everyone is your 'enemy,' kid."
"You need to learn to distinguish between conflicts of interest and personal grudges."
"The core difference between the two is that the former is open to discussion, while the latter is not."
