FATE: Target of Grand Master

Xia Yan tried to take Oliver out of the small world within the Holy Grail War grid, but found that he and Oliver were judged to be enemies. Neither of them could leave the small world unless one of them was annihilated or evacuated.

So, Xia Yan used a method to circumvent this rule.

He had Morgan use illusion magic to control Oliver's consciousness, and then he led four Servants to voluntarily leave the main world.

When they returned to their respective maps on the Holy Grail Front, Xia Yan and the other three stood in front of the square where Oliver was.

When Xia Yan moved forward again, he made an application to Oliver, and under Morgan's illusionary manipulation, he made Oliver click "agree".

And so, Xia Yan was able to return to the first square outside Oliver's safe house, and his next step was to try to enter Oliver's safe house.

However, based on Xia Yan's previous understanding of the safe house, the owner of the safe house has absolute control over it. In addition, after each trial, the safe house will restore the Master and Servant to their best condition. If Oliver is brought in rashly, he may break free from Morgan's restraints and kick them all out.

Therefore, Xia Yan is going to conduct an experiment to see if there are any loopholes in the safe house now that the level of protection has been reduced.

The experiment Xia Yan was going to conduct was actually quite simple. He tried to open the door to Oliver's safe house, but a message box popped up the moment he touched the doorknob.

As with previous visits to other Masters' territories, this message box asks Xia Yan if he wants to request permission from the safe house's owner to enter.

Upon seeing this message box, Xia Yan became certain that his idea might actually come true. However, this was not a good thing, because it proved that there were loopholes in the rules of the safe house.

Oliver, still under Morgan's control, confirmed Xia Yan's permission to enter the house. Xia Yan then turned the doorknob and entered, accompanied by three servants other than Morgan.

To be on the safe side, Xia Yan did not let Oliver into the safe house. At the same time, to ensure that there would be no problems with Oliver's controlled state, Xia Yan also left Morgan outside.

Anyway, with all of Oliver's Servants killed, there shouldn't be any danger inside the safe house.

After thoroughly exploring Oliver's safe house, Xia Yan came to a conclusion: as long as he obtained the safe house owner's permission to enter, he could receive almost the same treatment as the safe house owner inside, and even if he damaged the safe house, he would not be punished at all.

The reason it was described as almost identical treatment was because Xia Yan's attempt to enter Oliver's micro-singularity was unsuccessful.

It's not that they didn't have permission, but that they weren't even qualified to have permission. In other words, if a safe house were to be unexpectedly invaded, a microsingularity would be a place to take refuge.

Although Xia Yan still had many ideas he wanted to experiment with, all of them had to be based on the premise of putting Oliver back in the safe house.

Now that things have come to this, even if Oliver no longer has any followers, Xia Yan will not give him any more chances to live and continue to leak information about himself.

Just as Xia Yan left Oliver's safe house, preparing to send Oliver to meet God, the surrounding environment changed again.

Xia Yan, his followers, and Oliver re-entered the small world within the grid, which meant that someone else had attacked again.

"Xia Yan?"

A somewhat familiar female voice came from behind.

Xia Yan turned his head and saw that the attacker was actually Hu Xia.

"What are you doing here?"

Xia Yan was quite surprised by Hu Xia's appearance.

"Of course, it's because of my clever brain that I deduced the location of the scum who betrayed my ally, and I wanted to vent my anger for my carefree ally."

Hu Xia spoke with righteous indignation, and if Xia Yan hadn't known this man's character, he almost would have believed him.

"to be honest."

Xia Yan crossed his arms, giving off an expression that said, "I'll just watch how long you keep acting."

"That's the truth! Seriously! Xia Yan, are you misunderstanding me? Am I really that untrustworthy?"

Hu Xia pouted, looking aggrieved.

"If you could get rid of that unnatural theatricality when you communicate, you might be more likely to gain other people's trust."

Xia Yan didn't completely disbelieve Hu Xia's words, but he still felt that Hu Xia was hiding something.

"Okay, you win, I surrender."

Hu Xia sighed and added, "Part of the reason I came to help you get revenge is that, but the other part involves my privacy. I can only tell you that I have some issues with this guy."

Seemingly realizing something suddenly, Hu Xia looked at Oliver, who was standing next to Xia Yan with a blank expression and a dazed look, and said, "You didn't already take care of him, did you?"

Xia Yan spread his hands and said, "The followers have all been dealt with, and all that's left is this lone commander. If you had arrived any later, there might really have been nothing left."

"Damn, so I came all this way for nothing?"

Katniss, who was next to Hu Xia, immediately began to complain.

"Shut up, you battle maniac. Don't embarrass our Master in public."

"Alter!" Artoria shouted sternly.

"cut."

Although Katniss was somewhat resentful, she didn't want her Master to be looked down upon, so she could only stand aside and sulk.

"Sorry. Please excuse my poor appearance."

Hu Xia wore an expression as if he were a naughty child at home who didn't know any better.

Xia Yan found it quite amusing to watch other people's kids make a ruckus. Since they weren't his own, the more they made a fuss, the more entertaining it would be.

"Xia Yan, I have a request..."

Suddenly, Cú Chulainn Alter, who was behind Xia Yan, spoke up.

"Brother Gou, we're already so familiar with each other, there's no need to be so polite."

"Dog...Dog Bro?"

This was the first time Xia Yan had heard the name Cú Chulainn Alter. Although Xia Yan meant no harm when he said it, it still sounded strange to him.

Oops, I accidentally said it.

Xia Yan quickly changed the subject, asking, "Cú Chulainn, what are you trying to say?"

Cú Chulainn Alter remained his carefree self and didn't take the title seriously.

"Could I have a fight with Katniss here? Don't worry, we won't fight to the death. We just made a promise that if we meet again, we'll settle things once more. Anyway, you and that girl can probably chat for a while longer. In that time, Katniss and I can easily exchange a few blows."

"You just fought Minamoto no Yorimitsu, are you alright?"

Xia Yan did not object to Cú Chulainn's proposal, but he had some concerns about Cú Chulainn's current condition.

"Don't worry, it's fine. With Morgan's spell enhancement, I completely suppressed Minamoto no Yorimitsu, and my injuries healed quickly."

Cú Chulainn replied confidently.

"Okay, as long as you have no problem, I have no problem either."

"Thanks, Xia Yan."

"Shall I make an appointment for you?"

"Okay, please."

After discussing with Cú Chulainn, Xia Yan looked at Hu Xia.

"Alright, I got it. Let them fight over there. As long as they don't die, let them fight however they want."

Hu Xia immediately noticed that Cú Chulainn was whispering something to Xia Yan. In the end, this was also to satisfy her mischievous child, so she naturally wouldn't stop them.
