Walking in the Question and Answer System of Heroic Spirits

Weber: "Hephaestion has appeared. So it really is the work of the person behind the scenes."

Kiritsugu Emiya: "It's a bit like a diversionary tactic."

Tokiomi Tohsaka: "It seems like something bad is going to happen to the Second Prince."

After separating from Grey, Calabre and his companions were attacked by the forest's frenzied forces not far away.

[Calaber explained that because of their earlier act of setting up road signs, they were completely perceived as intruders.]

Yvette's Gem Eyes switched to their ruby ​​form, unleashing flames to clear a path for the three.

They quickly found a second location, a large rock, and set up markers.

[The three then chased each other through the forest for an unknown amount of time. After sliding down a slope, they finally found the center of the spiritual vein and quickly activated it.]

Thanks to their efforts, the train finally restarted.

Meanwhile, back in his room, the junior director...

After calming down, she felt something was off, but she just couldn't figure it out.

Suddenly, as the train started moving again, she stumbled forward and fell, her hand unexpectedly touching a spell coordinate in mid-air.

[Because this coordinate only reacts to her magic crest, no one else noticed it before.]

[The junior director immediately recognized that these coordinates belonged to the imaginary dimensional pocket left by Theresa. She quickly opened it with a password, only to witness a scene that nearly terrified her.]

[Theresa's head, which had been missing, somehow fell out of there.]

The junior director was so frightened that he fell to the ground, and in doing so, discovered a white snake under the bed.

[This is Adashino Hisaori's white snake familiar; that woman has been watching her all along.]

The barrier at the entrance was immediately destroyed, and Adano Ryori walked in with a smile, making no attempt to hide herself.

Rin Tohsaka: "I knew this woman wasn't a good person, and I was right."

Weber: "No, although the people in the Department of Law and Politics are very unpleasant in their behavior, everyone in the department has been rigorously selected."

Kenneth: "That's right, this woman wouldn't do such a thing."

Koles: "Shouldn't you be concerned about the head? Why is that woman's head there!"

Danic: "Haven't you figured it out yet? We were wrong before."

Danic: "That woman actually foresaw her own death, so she had already prepared a backup plan."

Koles: "But if we know the future, shouldn't we try to avoid it?"

Feng Xi: "Those who place too much faith in the future will only allow fate to dictate their lives."

Kiritsugu Emiya: "Having the ability to see the future, she believed that the future was inevitable, so she accepted her own death with equanimity."

Fiore: "How pathetic."

Feng Xi: "Fate can be changed, and our king is an example of that."

Altria: “???”

Feng Xi: "Have you forgotten about all those parallel world counterparts of yours?"

Artoria: "Yes, fate has many branches, but she chose to give them up."

Sakura Tohsaka: "Imaginary Dimension Pocket, is this imaginary magic?"

Kenneth: "That's right, this is the imaginary number magic you'll be learning in the future."

Kenneth: "Tokiomi Tohsaka, won't you accept my offer? Let her join my family, and I can find Sakura a very good teacher."

Kenneth: "As you can see, while the Imaginary Attribute is rare, there are quite a few magicians with the Imaginary Attribute in the Clock Tower. She can receive the best instruction here."

Tokiomi Tohsaka: "Let me think about it some more."

[Mission accomplished, Calabre and his two companions returned to the train, each one exhausted and panting.]

Soon, the Mystic Eyes collecting train set off again, but Grey had not yet returned.

She is still fighting Hephaestion.

To prevent Hephaestion from harming her master again, she resolved to keep him alive.

However, an avalanche soon followed.

Because the spiritual vein was taken away, the son of Fuhai Forest began to go berserk.

A moment later, Hephaestion and Grey were both in a cave.

The two have temporarily ceased hostilities.

[Grey: "Why did you save me?"]

Hephaestion: "You are a warrior, and you should die on the battlefield if possible."

[Grey: "Next time we meet, I'll kill you."]

Hephaestion: "Bring it on if you can do it."

Hephaestion has discovered Grey's true identity and feels she resembles him.

They are all shadows of the king.

The Conqueror: "Hahaha, well said, warriors should die on the battlefield."

Weber: "Is this what you taught her?"

Feng Xi: "There's no need to teach at all; it's all about being influenced by what you see and hear."

Conqueror King: "Yes, that's right."

"Grey, I will definitely find a way to save you. You are not my shadow."

"My king thought to himself."

Meanwhile, in the second prince's dream, he found himself back in his old classroom, where he saw the deceased Kenneth again and was questioned by him.

Kenneth: "Wave Velvet, why are you so determined to participate in the Fifth Holy Grail War and steal the relics from me? What are you after?!"

[Second Generation: "...I just want to see him one more time."]

Kenneth: "Foolish. Even if the Servant were to descend again, they wouldn't remember you."

[Second Generation: "Even so, I still want to prove that it's only me who's incompetent; he's the hero who deserves to win."]

Kenneth: "Do you still think that way? The relics have been stolen, Hephaestion doesn't acknowledge you as the Conqueror's subject, and yet you still want to continue fighting?"

[Second Generation: "Of course."]

Chapter 153 - Identifying the Murderer

Kenneth: "I'll ask you again, what does victory mean to a magician?"

[Second King: "Abolish all preconceived notions and focus solely on achieving the ultimate goal."]

"So what is your ultimate goal?"

Kenneth shouted, "Answer me, Lord El-Melloi II!"

[Second Generation: "Then I will answer you, my teacher, what I pursue now!"]

The scene shifts to Shishio and Luvia.

Sora: "I didn't realize Kenneth, you held a pretty high place in this kid's heart."

Kenneth: "Hmph."

Weber: "..."

Second Generation: "Cough cough..."

Danic: "So, are we just going to leave Fuhailin's son like this? What exactly is the person behind this going to all this trouble for?"

Tokiomi Tohsaka: "Who knows? Maybe they're just having fun."

King of Heroes: "Tokiomi, are you implying something about me?"

Tokiomi Tohsaka: "I didn't name anyone."

King of Heroes: "Hmph!"

[The Lion's Robbery team found a woman named "Marie Lilo Fargo," who is Theresa's best friend and should know something.]

[Lion's Robbery didn't mince words, stating his purpose directly: he wanted to know why Theresa was investigating a case from seven years ago.]

Mary told them that she had last seen Theresa a month earlier.

[At that time, Theresa told her that seven years earlier, around the same time as the decapitation case, the old director was also investigating the Holy Grail War and discovered that the Greater Grail had been corrupted. From then on, he became indifferent to the young director.]

This is highly illogical. After all, the young director is the old director's only son, the heir to the Animusfia family, and possesses considerable talent. Yet, the old director's actions seem to suggest he has abandoned her.

Theresa was puzzled and wanted to understand why.

According to Teresa's investigation, the person who accepted the old director's commission at that time was a person without a heart.

Upon hearing this description, Luvia's expression immediately changed.

Although she didn't mention a name, she did know someone who didn't have a heart.

[Rumor has it that he is a magician whose heart was stolen by a fairy but who is still alive; the outside world labels him as extremely dangerous.]
