I am a Type-Moon comic artist!

"What is it?" Kurokawa Kazuya asked directly.

"Um, someone wants to see you, President."

"No time. Let him talk to the vice president and the others when he has time. Didn't I already say that I'm not in charge of the company's internal affairs?"

"Yes..."

Kurokawa Kazuya frowned, feeling that there was something off about the receptionist's voice.

"She said her name is Aozaki Touko and she hopes to meet you."

"..." Kurokawa Kazuya was silent for a moment: "Let her in."

Chapter 170 Aozaki Touko

"So, it's on the ninth floor..." Aozaki Touko said, looking at the receptionist.

"Yes, Ms. Aozaki, the president is waiting for you there."

“I understand.” Aozaki Touko nodded, picked up her suitcase from the ground, and said, “Then, you will forget about me from now on. Work as usual.”

"I see."

As she spoke, Aozaki Touko put on the glasses she had just taken off and pressed the elevator button.

The receptionist at JOJO Company rubbed her head, feeling a slight ache: "What... just now?"

“Kanbuko City, huh?” In the elevator, Aozaki Touko said, looking at the constantly changing floor numbers. “I see. It seems that rumor wasn’t false. The Ryougi family must be nearby.”

She is preparing to leave Japan temporarily.

Although she was designated to be sealed away, she would not let that stop her from doing what she originally wanted to do.

"However, I was planning to see how his future prospects were before that matter started, maybe he could be of help... but it turns out he moved to Kanfuko City instead of Morioh Town. Honestly, I was about to leave after everything was finished. Oh well, I thought I'd just stop by and take a look."

As Aozaki Touko spoke, the elevator arrived at the ninth floor, and she stepped inside.

"Excuse me, are you Ms. Aozaki Touko?" someone asked as we entered.

“Ah, that’s right,” Orange said with a smile.

"The president is waiting for you here."

As he spoke, he led the way, and they soon arrived at Kurokawa Kazuya's office.

"So, you must be Miss Aozaki. Nice to meet you." He had already packed up his things and left the room to avoid any accidental damage to his manuscript in case of a battle.

“That’s right, so you must be Mr. Kurokawa…” Aozaki Touko said with a slight sigh, “You’re a little different from what I expected.”

"Huh? You mean futurism?"

"Oh...it seems you know a thing or two." Aozaki Touko sat down to the side, somewhat surprised. "Speaking of which, do you have anything to drink? Coffee will do."

"Okay, just a moment." Kurokawa Kazuya nodded, poured her a cup of coffee, and said, "Well, that's only natural. After all, I don't have any future vision. I'm just an ordinary person who was tricked by the Jewel Elder."

"You really dare to say that to just anyone." Aozaki Touko narrowed her eyes slightly, sensing danger and confidence in the man in front of her.

It gave her the feeling that if she made a move here, she would be beaten up...

How did he manage to do that?

There is no magic... no, I can sense the magic.

A strong magical fluctuation could be felt on the back of his right hand, in the area covered by the glove.

"Seriously... I have to say, as expected of a Grand-ranked magician, she saw through my trump card at a glance." Kurokawa Kazuya said helplessly, looking at Aozaki Touko's gaze. "There's nothing I can do. I'm not good at magic, so I can't hide the magical fluctuations on my face. I can only do this, using gloves to cover it up."

As he spoke, Kurokawa Kazuya took off his gloves.

Since the person in front of me has already seen through me, there's no point in hiding anymore.

but...

I'm really lucky.

Before heading to the [Eye of the Demon] train, I was fortunate enough to encounter this Grand Magus, making him arguably the most unique among all the Grand Mages.

If it were her...

“I see… Command Seals.” Aozaki Touko looked at Kurokawa Kazuya’s hand and said, “The Master of the Holy Grail War held in Fuyuki City… no, the Master of the next Holy Grail War?”

"No...this is indeed the Command Seal of Fuyuki City, but I managed to preserve it using some methods. Whether the next Holy Grail War will be held, and when it will be, is still unknown, isn't it? By the way, Miss Aozaki, how about we make a deal?"

"trade?"

"Yes, I have two deals I'd like to make with you. Of course, I'll pay for them; you need the money, don't you?"

"Ah, that's right, or rather, no magician is without money," Aozaki Touko said bluntly... although some of her money wasn't spent on magic, but rather on other strange and unusual things.

"I see... So, if I pay for it, could you make a glove that can help me hide my magical fluctuations? It just needs to cover the back of my hand, but it's better if my fingers are exposed, so it will be much easier to hold a pen that way," Kurokawa Kazuya asked.

"Of course." Aozaki Touko's tone immediately became cheerful. She had thought she had made a wasted trip, but she didn't expect there to be a hidden mission.

Yeah, it's just like playing a game.

She was very happy, as it seemed that completing this task would earn her a lot of money.

Whether it's my personal hobby or my research into magic, it's all the same, especially now that I can't borrow money from the Clock Tower.

The best thing about being sealed away by the Clock Tower like this is... that way she doesn't have to pay back the money.

"If you want to make gloves like those, as you said, well, how about I charge you 1000 million yen?"

So cheap!

Hearing Aozaki Touko's words, Kurokawa Kazuya said in a completely unfazed tone, "The cost of materials doesn't matter. Use the best, and the higher the level of the people you can hide from, the better. Ideally, even a magician of your level wouldn't be able to see it. What do you think?"

"Hmm... in that case, I'll take 500 million yen from you." Aozaki Touko's eyes lit up slightly as she looked at this person who seemed to think, "I'm not short of money."

"Okay." Kurokawa Kazuya nodded.

It doesn't seem too expensive.

So magicians aren't actually that expensive after all?

made money.

Both Kurokawa Kazuya and Aozaki Touko felt they had gotten a great deal.

'When the time comes, I can just use some of the hairs from the fantasy seed to knit him a glove, and then carve some spells into it... I already have the materials, so it's completely free.' Aozaki Touko was also in a good mood; before she knew it, she was about to have 500 million yen.

How should I spend this money?

"That's great! I'll definitely make something that will satisfy you. By the way, what's the second deal you mentioned?" Aozaki Touko asked expectantly, taking a sip of her coffee.

"Hmm...I wonder if you could make some adjustments or checks on the android."

“…Homunculi.” Aozaki Touko put down her coffee, paused as if thinking of something, and said, “Einzbern…?”

"Yes."

Chapter 171 The Transaction

Artificial humans and dolls are different.

Kurokawa Kazuya was a complete novice when it came to magic and had no idea whether there was any connection between them.

However, Kiritsugu Emiya once said that if it were Touko Aozaki, it should be possible... Does that mean that androids and dolls share some commonalities and have similarities?

In short, asking won't hurt you.

“Einzbern…” Aozaki Touko took out a pack of cigarettes, lit one, took a puff, and held it in front of her, watching it burn quietly. “I’ve heard about this too. The Fourth Holy Grail War was held in Fuyuki City, but at the most crucial moment, the Einzbern’s Holy Grail Vessel escaped… Therefore, the Einzbern couldn’t even participate in the Holy Grail War this time. I see. So that homunculus is on your side.”

As she spoke, she took off her glasses: "So, what exactly are you planning? The Holy Grail Vessel, Command Seals... you wouldn't be eyeing the Holy Grail, would you?"

As she said this, she put her glasses back on: "Just kidding, whatever your purpose is is none of my business. But... I still have to remind you, it is said that the next Holy Grail has been reserved by the Mage's Association, reserved to prolong the Great Source which is disappearing at an extremely rapid rate."

"I've heard about this, but don't worry, my goal isn't the Holy Grail... Well, you probably don't know this either... Actually, the Holy Grail vessel has a husband and this daughter."

“…Indeed, I’m a little surprised.” Aozaki Touko paused for a moment and said, “I see. Emiya Kiritsugu…I’ve heard of this magician before. So, what exactly is your purpose?”

"It's very simple... Although the Einzbern's artificial human technology is very strong, the Holy Grail is, after all, a Holy Grail. It doesn't need a long lifespan; it only needs to play a corresponding role in the Holy Grail War. Therefore... both Irisviel and her daughter Illyasviel have a deficiency in terms of lifespan... So, can you take control of their lifespans?"

"Well... I don't know." Aozaki Touko said straightforwardly, "After all, even if you've said so much, I've only heard of the Einzbern homunculi. I have no idea what the actual ones are like, or whether my skills can work. Magic is like that; if one step goes wrong, the result will be completely different. So I don't know if it will work... Well, if you're willing to pay, I'll take a look for you."

Kurokawa Kazuya is very curious now.

In the FSN route, how exactly did they convince Aozaki Touko to make a body for Emiya Shirou?

Or is it that they're robbing me because I have too much money...?

Well, never mind.

As Kurokawa Kazuya spoke, he picked up the phone beside him: "No problem, please wait a moment."

"Ok."

Aozaki Touko smiled and sat there drinking her coffee while watching Kurokawa Kazuya make a phone call.

"Help me call up Kiritsugu Emiya and tell him that Touko Aozaki is waiting for him here."

"Yes, I understand."

......

"Phew... This is so relaxing." Kiritsugu Emiya looked at the group of people next door who were busy making animation. If he could, he would like to join in and just stay here forever.

It also gives people a feeling of being too idle and boring.

However, we don't need him for the time being.

He's doing voice acting for some characters here, but he doesn't have any scenes yet.

In addition to this, I am also responsible for technical guidance on firearms and explosives, and am currently studying painting...

No one understands the effects of magic and firearms better than him; he has extensive knowledge in this area, which can be used in the animation production process.

This even includes the modification of firearms.

It's worth noting that his own magical costume is actually a modified firearm.
