Walking in the Question and Answer System of Heroic Spirits

After Grey and her mother left, he didn't rush to find Belsac, but instead continued to wander around the cemetery for a while.

[Reines: "What's wrong, brother?"]

[Second Generation: "Hmm, I don't feel quite at ease."]

[Lenes: "You mean her mother who just came?"]

[Second Generation: "That's one of the reasons, but I feel something's really off about this place. If only my investigative skills were a bit better."]

"Excuse me, Reines, may I have you watch this instead?"

【"Ahhh..."】

Although she appeared reluctant, Reines activated her Mystic Eyes.

[Yes, the magical atmosphere around here is far more active than in the city. The spiritual energy permeating the cemetery appears and disappears like mist, resembling a scene from a low-budget horror movie.]

[There seems to be nothing unusual?]

[Second Generation: "Don't just look at one spot, but observe the whole. Also, don't fixate on a single point; vaguely bring your consciousness to the top of your head. Don't just use the Mystic Eyes to see; create in your imagination another self that controls the Mystic Eyes and yourself."]

Reines: "Hey, this is starting to sound like a class."

[While complaining, Reines narrowed her eyes as instructed by the Second King.]

The field of vision slowly changed.

Reines: "Hmm? What's this?"

[Second Generation: "What's wrong?"]

Reines: "No, how should I put it... when viewed like this, the spiritual energy here is both dense and sparse."

In Reines's eyes, the spirits Gray had spoken of slowly emerged, but their outlines were indistinct, almost indistinguishable from magic, and could only be identified as a seamless mist.

[Moreover, she sensed a peculiar quality different from pure magic.]

The entire cemetery resembles a gigantic ghost.

[In addition, there are several faintly shimmering lines within the cemetery, clearly entities of a different nature from the cemetery itself.]

Kenneth: "It seems that this Blackmore Cemetery is not simple either; it's like a large-scale magical costume."

Weber: "Or perhaps, it is some kind of seal or barrier."

Rin Tohsaka: "This village has quite a few secrets."

Tokiomi Tohsaka: "However, those lines seem to have a different magical composition than those in the graveyard. Does this mean that someone else has investigated this place beforehand?"

Webber: "Have you forgotten? When that Belsack first came on stage, he said that other people had come before."

Rin Tohsaka: "I thought that person was referring to Hartles."

Weber: "That's certainly possible, but if it were that guy, he'd probably already be gone."

After all, the Second Prince and Hartres first met on the Magic Eye Train.

“Bingo!”

After Reines told the Second Prince about the situation, he snapped his fingers.

Reines: "You've got a clue?"

[Second Generation: "That's right, this cemetery has an aura of external interference. Since you were able to find it immediately, it means there's no disguise. Although it's at least made transparent, does the other party think it doesn't matter if they're discovered?"]

Reines: "I'm so sorry, my eyes aren't very good."

[Second Generation: "Can you tell where those lines lead?"]

Reines: "Wait... it's that direction."

[That was in the opposite direction from the swamp, a small, raised hill, with what appeared to be an old windmill-like cottage on it.]

Chapter 231 Atlas Academy

"By the way, he mentioned that he'd had a series of visitors, right?"

At this moment, the Second King finally remembered what Belsak had said when they first met.

"Let's meet up."

The two of them arrived directly at the top of the hill, and looking back, they found that they could overlook the entire cemetery and swamp from there.

Reines: "Haha, so that's the legendary swamp?"

[Having been repeatedly warned not to go near there, Reines' curiosity was now at its peak.]

Since getting close is forbidden, observing from a distance shouldn't be a problem.

[Hmm, the swamp is surprisingly large, easily comparable in size to a cemetery, yet it looks like an ordinary swamp.]

Perhaps it's because many villagers perished there that people are forbidden to approach.

The two arrived at the windmill hut, which was also quite old and dilapidated.

The windmill appears to be broken; despite the strong winds, it shows no signs of turning.

The Second Prince stepped forward and knocked on the door, but there was no response from inside.

[Seeing the door, the Second Prince opened it and went in without saying a word; Reines didn't even have time to stop him.]

Once inside, the scene was astonishing.

Inside the dilapidated shack, various modern machines were neatly arranged.

No, it should be described as magic props modeled after modern machines, such as cube computers without keyboards and mice.

The magician who could create such a thing is definitely not a magician from the Clock Tower; it must be that mysterious and powerful organization.

But don't their people usually hide underground? How come they're here?

Kenneth: "Hmm? I didn't expect people from that organization to come too. That's strange."

Rin Tohsaka: "That organization? What is it?"

Shiki Jie Li: "I guessed it too, it's that dangerous and mysterious organization."

Just then, the Second Prince looked towards the corridor on one side of the hut, where footsteps could be heard.

【"Cut off."】

A blond young man, about twenty-five years old, wearing a long cloak, emerged from the other end of the corridor.

This person walks perfectly straight as if they can see, even though their eyes are closed.

[If he's from that organization, then his age definitely doesn't match what he appears to be.]

"We can only say it's been cut off."

The visitor murmured, "This is supposed to be the meeting place of the new monarch and dean of the Modern Magic Department, yet the stage design is flawed. The producer, screenwriter, and director all must be held accountable. A simple structure isn't bad, but dramatic scenes still require a certain form."

"Ah, I should actually greet you both at the entrance, but the sun is blazing today. My constitution is a bit difficult to deal with; although I've taken some precautions, the direct sunlight is really troublesome."

"hiss!!!"

Upon seeing the person in the video, Kenneth gasped in shock.

How could it be this person!

In front of this person in the video, even the monarch is just a minor figure.

"How... is this possible..."

Upon seeing the person's face clearly, Reines was so shocked that she couldn't speak.

[“Tsbia Eltnham Atlasia…”]

[The Second Prince said in a hoarse voice, "The Dean of the Atlas Academy."]

Tokiomi Tohsaka: "!!!"

Tokiomi Tohsaka: "What the hell?! The current headmaster of Atlas Institute, what are you doing here?!"

Although he had never met the other person, he had heard of their name.

The young man with his eyes closed is the current dean of the Atlas Academy, and also a Dead Apostle who has lived for nearly five hundred years.

The Atlas Institute, one of the three major departments of the Mage's Association, is an organization that has existed since before Christ. Located in the Atlas Mountains of Egypt, it is an academy of alchemists and is also known as the "Crypt of the Giants".

The alchemists of the Atlas Institute were originally a group of people with very few magic circuits. They acknowledged their shortcomings as magicians and chose the path of pursuing truth as human beings.

The result of this choice is the Atlas Academy as we know it today.

They are better than anyone else at using their minds to create blueprints for the future.

In order to avoid the "end" proved by the first dean, they endlessly repeat the destruction and creation of weapons.

To date, the Atlas Institute has developed seven weapons capable of destroying the world, all of which have been strictly sealed away.

Lion's Tribulation: "What an extraordinary figure has appeared."

Weber: "No way! How could something like that come to such a remote place?"

Kiritsugu Emiya: "Anyway, he's definitely not here for a vacation. It must be related to this village and Gray."

[Tsbia: "Oh, you don't seem too surprised."]

[Second Generation: "Of course I was very surprised, but I just didn't show my excessive surprise on my face."]
