Chapter 213 Lottery and the Army

Looking at the brick in front of him, Kurokawa Kazuya fell into deep thought...

This time, what he drew was none other than this brick.

There are two circles formed by bloodstains on the brick, with the larger circle enclosing the smaller one. A series of words are written between the two circles, and the words also enclose the circle on the outside.

At the center is a pentagram.

The five gaps connecting the pentagram and the circle are also inscribed with five letters.

You can tell at a glance... that magic circle.

The excess blood seeped out slightly along the stone.

"They actually... pulled out this thing..."

This time, he drew "Rurouni Kenshin," a manga he really likes. It was the manga that filled the gap from the previous draw and was immediately drawn; he didn't expect to draw it so quickly...

But what surprised me most was the other thing I had pulled out.

That's the rock right in front of me—

In Hellsing, the vampire Alucard is a formidable character.

Unafraid of sunlight, silver bullets, holy water...

It can be said that he does not possess any of the weaknesses of legendary vampires, nor does he possess the weaknesses of the Dead Apostles in this world... He has only power and no weaknesses, that's the way to put it.

Furthermore, it possesses a powerful immortal body.

Alucard's fighting style is generally to let someone else kill him first, and then fight back.

He can be said to be completely immortal. There are millions of souls in the River of Death, which means that you would have to kill him millions of times to kill him. Moreover, once he starts drinking blood, his life will continue to increase.

Furthermore, they can absorb the soul of the deceased by drinking their blood, and then make that person fight for them.

The liberation of the River of Death was also when he was at his weakest, because at that time, the millions of souls he absorbed would materialize to help him start the battle, forming the River of Death.

However, at that time he only had one life left... meaning that he would die after being killed once.

Until he absorbed the blood of "Schrödinger's cat," who had committed suicide...

He became someone who exists everywhere, yet is nowhere...

However, because of the millions of souls within him, he became lost, not knowing who he was or where he was.

At that time—

This stone remains at the spot where Akat disappeared.

After that... Alucard spent over thirty years killing all but one of the 3,424,867 souls within him.

Thus, I rediscovered myself and returned to the world.

And now...

Kurokawa Kazuya was holding such a stone in his hand.

He felt his head was a little big...

What? You expect to wait decades and then hatch an Alucard on your own?

Suddenly, his eyes lit up slightly.

There is no doubt that Dracula exists in this world, but he is not a vampire; on the contrary, he despises the identity that others assign to him.

But... what about now? What about using this summon now?

Can I summon him... in the form of Alucard?

This is really... worth a try!

"The Holy Grail War is progressing faster and faster, probably in about a year..." If Kurokawa Kazuya's prediction is correct... 1992 will be the year the Holy Grail War begins, and that's when countless people will head to Egypt!

......

"Oh, this is great, really great!"

"What are you looking at again, Hansa?" The speaker was a white-haired priest with wrinkles that could trap flies and age spots on his face, but... from the scars covering the back of his hands that were visible beneath his priest's robe, it was clear that he was no ordinary priest.

They must have been through countless battles before.

"Ah, this, this is Kurokawa Kazuya's new manga. It just finished serialization a while ago, so I bought the collected volumes right away." The priest who spoke looked to be in his twenties.

Medium-length black hair, one eye covered by an eyepatch.

"Kurokawa Kazuya's new manga..." The elderly priest slowly walked over: "What?"

Normally, few people in organizations like the Church of Christ and the Magicians' Association read comics, because such things are unnecessary for either God or magic.

At most, a few magicians treat it as a hobby.

Until Fate/Zero appeared...

This comic took a long time to spread in the mysterious world, revealing things that most magicians and priests were unaware of—the Holy Grail War, the summoning of Heroic Spirits...

and many more.

This allows people to further understand what the system is...

Especially now... in Egypt, where a new Holy Grail War is about to begin—

They need to understand what heroic spirits are, what they are, and how to treat them after they are summoned... especially the research on the King of Heroes, Gilgamesh.

After all, the Holy Church is preparing to summon that heroic spirit this time...

Then—some people didn't care after watching Fate and didn't read other comics, but others were attracted by the world of the comics and began to read other comics in depth.

For example, the Hanseatic League is an example of this.

"This is it, Father Andersen is so handsome... Ah~ ↑ Door ———— ↓ Like this..."

"Haha, I'm glad you like it," the priest said with a smile.

“By the way, Master,” Hansa said to the priest, “what do you think about our Church establishing a Thirteenth Betrayal Department? It sounds pretty cool!”

“Impossible,” the priest laughed. Although he didn’t know what Hansa was talking about, he could tell just from the name. The fact that the name “betrayal” was being used meant it couldn’t be directed at believers. In other words, “Don’t forget we already have agents and burial agencies.”

"No, no, it feels slightly different, teacher. You'll understand once you take a look!"

"I understand." The priest took the comic and set it aside, saying, "I called you here this time because I have a new task for you."

"Sigh... a new mission?"

“Yes.” The elderly priest nodded. “According to intelligence, the Holy Grail War is about to take place in Egypt. Barthezello is preparing to bring his Clone army… no, he has already brought it. So, in order to deal with them, our Church must also form a team to deal with them… and Hansa, I think you are very suitable.”

"Hmm? Isn't this great!" Hansa's eyes lit up. "Great! I'll join, but—could this new organization be called the Thirteenth Betrayal Division? Ahh ...

"...But this isn't my responsibility..."

"Huh? Then...who's in charge?"

"Archbishop Alvin and... Ambrose Conant, who is our agent."

Chapter 214 The Army of the Dead Apostles

In the dark room, women lay on the floor.

Because there was almost no light, her complexion was not visible, but her wide-open pupils, the hole next to her neck, and her motionless body told others what was going on.

They... are dead.

"Lord Dior..."

A naked woman, her eyes filled with love for the man before her, walked over the corpses on the ground and stood before him who was reading a book.

Dior put down the book he was holding and smiled slightly.

He touched the woman's neck with his fingers, and then inserted them!

Blood flowed down his fingers and into his body.

The woman also fell to the ground and died.

But... judging from her expression, she didn't seem to regret it at all.

Or rather, all the corpses on this ground were like that; they all voluntarily gave their lives for that man—DIO!

“You’re recovering very well.” Dio Brando stood up and stretched his body.

The description "Vulnerable Left Half :D" on his attribute panel has disappeared...

He now has complete control over this body, so even his stand has become more powerful, and the abilities he could use when he first became a vampire have also become stronger.

Or rather, it means that I have returned to a point where I can control things again.

He used to have some difficulty using it because of the incompatibility with his body, but now it's different. He has completely adapted to it!

"Heh... In this way, Jonathan's body is now completely mine... Colin Kidd!"

"exist--!"

The Dead Apostle knelt on the ground and bowed his head to DIO.

"How is it?"

"It's done, Lord DIO! Just as you commanded, eighty Dead Apostles have gathered in this mansion, including one high-ranking Dead Apostle! They have all submitted to your charm, Lord DIO!"

If you look closely, you can see that behind Colin Kidd are a group of Dead Apostles, all kneeling in the same position.

"Hmm, very good." DIO nodded, picked up the book, and walked to the bookshelf beside him. "I can feel it... the Holy Grail War is about to begin... Heh, the time is almost here. How wonderful, to win the Holy Grail War and reach that paradise where one can live in eternal peace... It's possible in this world too, I'm certain of that..."

DIO turned back to look at the countless Dead Apostles and laughed: "Celebrate! Before long... I, DIO, will create a paradise where we can all live, where everyone can live in peace forever. You... will no longer have to face the pursuit of the Holy Church and the Mage's Association... You can do whatever you want. Hmm? Master... you're back?"

DIO said with a smile, but there was no respect for Master in his tone. He simply regarded Master as a subordinate like the other Dead Apostles.

This is only natural.

How could DIO possibly let someone else be his master!
