Walking in the Question and Answer System of Heroic Spirits

After all, he didn't know that fictional characters could become heroic spirits as long as they were famous.

Now that he saw Bluebeard's infatuation with Joan of Arc, he finally understood.

This guy is the prototype of Bluebeard from fairy tales, Gilles de Rais.

Gilles de Rais developed mental problems after Joan of Arc's death. In order to study alchemy, he tortured 300 children to death and was eventually burned at the stake.

This also matches the guy's twisted mentality and behavior.

The Masters in the group also realized who this guy was.

[D: An alternate version of Artoria born in a mysterious time and space, the mysterious heroine X.]

Tokiomi Tohsaka: "Hmm? Another parallel world?"

Kenneth: "The Mysterious Time and Space? What kind of place is that?"

Webber: "So, this really is King Arthur."

Feng Xi: "Of course it counts. Didn't I already say that it's a parallel world counterpart of Artoria?"

[E: In a parallel world, Artoria, because she didn't draw the Holy Sword during her youth and instead chose to use the Holy Lance "Rungomminiad" as her weapon, didn't stop growing. Her physical age matured to a stage consistent with her status as a king, and due to her long-term use of the Holy Lance, she became an existence close to a god.]

Altria: “???”

Webber: "This is King Arthur from a parallel universe!"

Rin Tohsaka: "The difference is too big!"

The Conqueror King: "Hahaha, what's the big deal? I was very different when I was young."

Weber: "How big?"

The Conqueror King: "In your words, he's a handsome young man."

Weber: "A handsome young man! You?"

It wasn't that Weber didn't believe it, but rather that Iskandar's massive size was truly unimaginable; he had been a handsome young man in his youth.

[F: A male King Arthur from a parallel universe, the wielder of the Star Sword, Arthur Pendragon.]

"!!!"

Now everyone in the group was at a loss.

Waver: "A male King Arthur! Does he really exist?!"

Tokiomi Tohsaka: "We've all been misled..."

Rin Tohsaka: "Heh, I will never believe any information given by the system again."

Kenneth: "Thanks to the system, it reminded me of the memories of being dominated by exams."

The correct options are D, E, and F.

[Congratulations to Feng Xi for obtaining 5 Holy Crystals.]

[Bluebeard has given up on answering this question.]

[All other answers were incorrect, deducting 1 Saint Quartz.]

Weber: "Hmm? Feng Xi, you got it right!"

Feng Xi: "I just played with reverse thinking and chose the least likely option."

Feng Xi: "This is my experience with exams."

Weber: "What kind of experience is this...?"

Kenneth: "Hmph, why don't you use that time to study properly?"

Feng Xi: "Do you think you can answer the questions in this group just by studying?"

Kenneth: "..."

[In this quiz, Feng Xi had the highest win rate, followed by Emiya Kiritsugu, and then Waver. Each was awarded one gold, one silver, and one bronze treasure chest respectively.]

[Today's quiz is over. See you tomorrow.]

Weber: "Today's questions have truly broadened my horizons."

Kenneth: "Indeed, there's a lot of information."

Tokiomi Tohsaka: "Wave, what did you get from your treasure chest?"

Weber: "Oh, this..."

Weber: "Wait a minute, why should I tell you!"

Kariya Matou: "Hmph, Tokiomi Tohsaka, still with that hypocritical and disgusting face, trying to sneak up on someone and find out their hand."

Tokiomi Tohsaka: "Hmph, Kariya Matou, when did it become your place to speak, someone who isn't even a magician?"

Kariya Matou: "Hehe, sorry, I'm a magician now."

Tokiomi Tohsaka: "Are you kidding me, you don't even have magic circuits?"

Chapter 14: The Holy Grail War Begins, Summoning Heroic Spirits

(Irisviel)

Kariya Matou: "Haven't you noticed yet? The shops in this group sell magic circuits, and they only cost one Saint Quartz per circuit."

Kariya Matou: "I have already purchased four Magic Circuits."

Tokiomi Tohsaka: "What!"

He really didn't know that, since his attention was always on items like jeweled swords.

Kenneth: "You can even buy magic circuits?!"

It is important to know that magic circuits are the most important thing for a magician. They are the vital organs that magicians use to transform life force into magic power.

Without a magic circuit, you're destined never to become a magician.

The more magic circuits a user has, the more magic they can use.

Of course, more magic circuits are not necessarily better; quality can be prioritized over quantity.

The number of magic circuits is predetermined from the start and cannot be increased by external factors.

But now there is an exception, and that is this mysterious system.

It turns out that you can add magic circuits to yourself by obtaining Saint Quartz through answering questions.

If this gets out, it could cause turmoil throughout the entire Magic Association.

They hadn't really looked at the system store before; it seems they'll have to study it carefully from now on.

"What an amazing system!"

Weber had already arrived in Fuyuki City and settled in a hotel.

But he doesn't have time for that right now.

In front of him were a gold treasure chest and a bronze treasure chest.

It was the reward he received for answering questions yesterday and today.

He didn't open the treasure chest yesterday because he was on the plane.

I'm going to start summoning Heroic Spirits tonight, so I'm summoning them all at once to see if I can get any useful items.

"Huh? This is it?"

Weber stared into thought as he looked at the card and the dagger that had appeared in his hand.

On the other side, at the Einzbern castle.

"Irisviel, the plans have changed."

Kiritsugu Emiya found his wife wiping Avalon and said with a serious expression.

Irisviel asked curiously, "What's wrong, Kiritsugu? Aren't you going to summon King Arthur anymore?"

"No, the summoning remains unchanged."

Kiritsugu Emiya looked at the card in his hand and said in a deep voice, "What needs to be changed is the person who performs the summoning."

Let's turn our attention back to Fuyuki City and the hotel room where Feng Xi is.

"Ding! Congratulations, host, you have obtained the 'Heroic Spirit Summoning Card - Chaldea Edition'!"

Feng Xi's face lit up with joy.

Haha, I finally got something good!

Chaldea uses the "Guardian Heroic Spirit Summoning System: Fate" to summon Heroic Spirits. The summoned Heroic Spirits can remain in the world until they are sent back or defeated.

In other words, the heroic spirit summoned with this card can remain in the mortal world indefinitely.

This way, I'll have two Heroic Spirits available for this Holy Grail War.

Unfortunately, even if they win this Holy Grail War, there will be no benefit to them.

After all, the Holy Grail had been corrupted by Antonidas to such a terrible state that it was completely unusable for making wishes.

"Keep it for now, we'll use it together tonight."
