Crossover Anime: Picking up Medea at the Start

"Among the Servants that the King's Army usually summons, there are actually Servants who are more powerful than Iskandar. However, because they are only given the skill of acting alone (E-), they can only come and fight to the minimum, but that's all."

“But now that all the followers in the King’s Army have become Gods, the fastest way for them to advance in their promotion ladder must be through the magic power they consume all the time.”

"And because they lack magic power, they are in a weak state. Training in this state will definitely allow them to advance very quickly in the advancement ladder."

"Then, as their magical power increases and their physical abilities improve, the Servants in the King's Army will gradually unleash their true power."

"Although there are still limitations of the Reality Marble, when Iskandar feels that he has trained his troops enough using the God People model, he can transform all these Servants into Gods... Then his troops will be freed from the limitations of the Reality Marble and the limitation of constantly consuming mana, and he will probably usher in a significant boost."

"Such a force is too overwhelming for the world."

At this point, Hyakko looked in the direction Esdeath had left, her gaze becoming slightly more profound.

"But I can't explain why myself. I always feel that if this woman is leading the troops, then it's not impossible for them to catch up with, or even surpass, Iskandar."

Hearing Bai Mao say that, Roland smiled.

"That's up to them then."

After saying this, Roland then spoke to Bai Mao.

"By the way, Bai Mao, make sure you arrange everything that needs to be arranged by May 5.4th, and also spread the word that I will execute former Minister Ernest in the central square of the capital in three days!"

"Yes."

Bai Mao nodded, then disappeared into the shadows and left.

Roland only just opened the [God Group System].

Now that the center's enhancement has been raised to Lv4, Roland has received another boost to his attributes. At the same time, seeing this boost, Roland also thought of Bai Mao, who had disappeared as if teleported after disappearing into the shadows.

"It seems that Bai Mao has developed some more personality clones. She turned each personality clone into a god. So when all the personalities are merged together, the boost to her from the advancement ladder is hundreds of times, and the attribute enhancement is also very comprehensive. She has become much stronger."

Roland sighed at this, then rubbed his hands together and opened the lottery page.

We'll look into the new features that will be available when the number of members reaches 15.

And now...

Esdeath's lottery draw count, let's start!

....

22. The Prelude to the Dead Apostles War

Congratulations on acquiring the skill "Shadow of Shadows"!

With this notification popping up, Roland easily checked the skill's effect.

This skill is undoubtedly a component of a shadow-based skill set.

Moreover, it's a generic component that doesn't require much explanation.

The effect is that when Roland's shadow-based skills hit, a special negative effect will be applied - this effect will make people feel sleepy, tired, cold, and heavy-bodied, and it can be stacked.

Moreover, once you're hooked, it's very difficult to untie unless Roland helps you get it off.

That's the skill.

"Well, I was thinking that since I got the lottery chances from Esdeath, maybe I could get a Stand like Star Platinum or something, with the ability to stop time. I didn't expect it to turn out like this."

"Hmm...not bad either."

Roland pondered the use of the Shadow of Yin for a moment, then nodded.

He certainly doesn't think he has too many of these skill components.

Then he shifted his attention away from the skills and began to examine the new features that the God Group unlocked after reaching 15 members.

The new feature launched this time is also very simple.

It refers to the function that allows members within the group to communicate remotely.

But this feature is very important; it could even be said to be the feature Roland needs most right now.

This feature enables cross-platform communication.

In other words, Roland is currently in the world of Kill!, but he can use this skill to contact the other 14 people in the Type-Moon world.

Such communication capabilities are very important and strategic for Roland, who focuses on the multiverse.

So after confirming this feature, Roland contacted the other members of the God Group, informing them of the feature and asking them about some random things.

For example, are the creation of the Mecha Gods for Medea, Aozaki Touko, and Illya going smoothly?

For example, Bazett, Artoria, and Beo—have they already returned?

Iskandar's situation seems to be going smoothly, while Medea's situation is still in the trial and error phase because she already had the idea and plan to create a machine god, so there's not much to say about her.

But Bazett, Artoria, and Beo—the three of them haven't returned yet.

It is said that the Magic Association was unwilling to budge, but they also did not intend to force Bazett to stay. After discussions, they decided to let Bazett go on one last mission and then settle all previous accounts.

And the target of this final mission is—Roya.

Roland was quite surprised when he first heard about this goal.

He knew Roya; she was the villain in Tsukihime, the snake Akasha who was constantly being hunted down by the white princess.

Moreover, according to Orange, it seems that for some reason, Roa's possession target this time became Kurogiri Mikiya after the Tohno family was defeated.

This guy is regarded by the church as one of the twenty-seven Dead Apostles, but the twenty-seven ancestors despise Roya—Roya is not even among the twenty-seven ancestors recognized by the Dead Apostles themselves.

Given Arcueid's connection to him, the Mage's Association should theoretically be ignoring him.

After all, this is a designated seal... If that White Princess finds out, she will definitely come and kidnap Roya and kill him.

If a lot of manpower and resources are spent and nothing is gained, and the loss of manpower in Arcueid's hands is equivalent to giving it away for nothing, it will be impossible to get compensation afterward, which is a huge loss!

But after Bazette explained the cause and effect, Roland understood.

It turns out that after the White Princess sensed Roya's presence, she woke up and then wandered around Europe.

Whether to the magician or the church, she could be considered a walking natural disaster.

And that’s not all.

It is said that while Arcueid was wandering around Europe, several of the Twenty-Seven Dead Apostles became active.

Granzog Brachmore, also known as the Blackwing Duke, and Melion Solomon followed Arcueid everywhere.

Nerochaos, under the orders of Tefal Ottenrose, the White Wing King, the uncrowned king among the Twenty-Seven Dead Apostles, planned to capture Arcueid and bring him back.

Arcueid himself was unaware of the Mage's Association's knowledge of this matter, but in any case, Nero Chaos and Blackwing had already fought several battles, each of which caused significant damage.

Afterwards, Altrudge, the true Queen of the Dead Apostles, changed her previous inactivity due to her injury and became active again with her Black Knights, White Knights, and Primate Hunters.

Then, upon discovering this, the White Winged Duke also became active, seemingly intending to attack the Black Princess and solidify his identity as the Uncrowned King, thus becoming the true King of the Dead Apostles.

The White Wings have taken action. It seems that the financial demon king, Vanfem, who has a grudge against the White Knight under Black Princess, also intends to cooperate with him in order to cause trouble for the White Knight.

With so many ancestors making moves, the fifteenth ancestor, Rita Rosean, and the twenty-first ancestor, Smirre, have teamed up.

Then Anhans, who had always been thinking about hunting the other twenty-seven ancestors, naturally became active as well.

Furthermore, according to information from the Mage's Association, it seems that the Nineteenth Ancestor has also taken some action.

Good guy.

After hearing this information, Roland understood why the Mage Association had ordered Roya to be sealed.

After all, most of the magic families in the Mage's Association are in Europe, and most of the remaining members of the Twenty-Seven Dead Apostles in Europe are now active!

If Whitewing and Altrouge really start fighting, the Dead Apostle War will probably break out directly in Europe!

If Arcueid gets dragged into this...

So, a massive battle between a True Ancestor and at least ten Dead Ancestors—it's hard to say what their fate will be afterward, but most of the magic families rooted in Europe will definitely decline as a result.

Even some large families will suffer heavy losses, and there is even a possibility that they will be wiped out in the war of the Dead Apostles.

Roland guessed that even the monarch had probably started getting involved at the Clock Tower.

Since this matter involves so many ancestors, even the Gemstone Elder might get involved.

This chaotic situation was actually caused by that Roya.

Thinking about this, Roland felt that even if Roya really died this time, it would be glorious enough.

As he thought this to himself, he warned Bazett to be careful—if Bazett were alone, Roland would definitely make her refuse the Magic Association.

After all, if Bazett were to run into any of the ancestors, he would be in trouble.

But if Artoria and Beo are there too...

“Bazett, participating in this mission is fine, but even if it fails, it doesn't matter. If the Mage's Association causes trouble because of this, then leave it to me—so remember, during this mission, don't confront the White Princess and the Black Princess's factions head-on. The White Princess's combat power should not be underestimated, and although the Black Princess is seriously injured and it's unknown how much of her combat power she can still exert, she is still not easy to deal with, especially since she has primate hunters under her command…”

"Even if you have to abandon the mission, you must ensure your own safety. As long as you, Artoria, and Beo can come back alive, that's more important than anything else. If all else fails, we can team up later to regain our dignity, but we must not lose what is truly important, understand?"

Hearing Roland say this, Bazette was touched, and Artoria, who was staying at the hotel with her, and Beo, who had become human, also felt a warmth in their hearts.

However, after being moved, Bazett realized that there were still some things Zuroran hadn't mentioned.

Those who act alone or stick together for warmth seem to be doing well, but...

"Roland, have you forgotten about Duke White Wing?"
