I am a Type-Moon comic artist!

"Hmph! Anyway, we never had such thoughts. Alright, let's listen to what they have to say."

Chapter 334 Chaldea

"Mmm—it's so delicious~~"

Kurokawa Kazumi picked up a piece of tempura, popped it into her mouth, and exclaimed in surprise, "When did your cooking skills become so good, brother? And didn't you hate Japanese food?"

“That’s right, because I didn’t make it.” Kurokawa Kazuya smiled and said, “It was made by a housekeeper… or rather, a nanny I just hired. It’s not bad, is it?”

"Mmm, that's really great! You have to bring it to me every mealtime from now on. It's so rare to find food this delicious!"

"I'll try my best. After all, the time flow is different in the two worlds, and I don't know if I can catch up."

"That's good." After swallowing the tempura in her mouth, Kurokawa Kazumi cleaned up the food.

"What? Aren't you going to eat?"

"No, I'll go find Ophelia to eat with." Kurokawa Kazumi smiled. "After all, we've just made a new friend, so of course we should share such good food. By the way, where did you find such a good chef?"

"Valhalla".

"I see, Valhalla... Valhalla?" Kurokawa Kazumi paused, then asked, "Um... is it a company that hires nannies called Valhalla?"

"No, it's the Hall of Heroes that you're thinking of."

"Really? They even provide a nanny there?"

"Of course not... a subspecies Holy Grail War. That's right. Ever since the Holy Grail War in our world was exposed several years ago, someone has constructed a Spirit Foundation Disc that can summon pseudo-Heroic Spirits... Their power may decline significantly, but other aspects are still fine."

“For example, cooking skills,” Ryougi Shiki added from the side. “This time, the Heroic Spirit was summoned because of his excellent cooking skills.”

"Well, to be more specific, it's not just about cooking skills, but his Servant panel should have an ability like [Housekeeping: A], or maybe even higher."

"...That's wonderful." Kurokawa Kazumi remarked with some emotion, "There are even Heroic Spirits like this, who know everything about housekeeping...you mean, the kind that understands everything about domestic matters...I want to summon a Heroic Spirit like that too, um, what's his class?"

Kurokawa Kazumi suddenly thought of Fuka: "I also have the qualifications of a Master. If possible, maybe I can summon the Servant you mentioned in this world!"

"Alright, I'll tell you. His class is Archer, his ability is projection, his real name is Emiya Shirou, and he's a Heroic Spirit from the near future. If he existed in this world, he would probably still be a human at this point in time."

"What about your identity?"

"His identity... should be that of a magician, and probably a high-level one who can create enchantments. Don't mess with him, he's a human who can go toe-to-toe with top Servants."

"I see." Kurokawa Kazumi was somewhat surprised: "A magician of this caliber also has such excellent domestic skills...?"

......

"He...just mentioned the Holy Grail War, right?"

“Ah, that’s right.” Roman nodded. “It seems that his Holy Grail War has become widespread. He even came directly from Valhalla to play a role that specializes in this kind of thing for a babysitter… This… is a bit hard to evaluate.”

"Even if it's a pseudo-Servant, it's still a Servant after all. Humanity's inherent flaws have never changed."

"However, Rafe, since he was able to summon a Servant in that world, does that mean he has the potential to be a Master?"

"That should be the case, but he's only a Master. Whether he can adapt to spirit particle transfer is still unknown. What? Do you want to leave him at Chaldea?"

"No, it doesn't matter whether he stays or leaves, but... that's on the premise that he doesn't have Master qualifications. Anyway, let's see if he chooses to take the test."

......

At night, Kurokawa and Ryougi Shiki, as always, returned to their original world to rest.

After waking up, I didn't rush over.

"It should only be dawn over there tonight, so there's no need to rush. Hmm, today's breakfast was great too, as expected of Emiya."

"You flatter me." The heroic spirit Emiya said, letting out a slight sigh in his heart. This period of time was enough for him to understand the true identity of the Master who summoned him.

Although I'd seen it before, it's only now that I truly understand some of the things...

For example, those things.

The original author of those comics is this person right in front of me...

......

"So, do you see that? This is the essence of Chaldea! The magical crystal that can reflect the light of the past and observe the future—Chaldea."

Rafe introduced the object in front of him, which looked like a "celestial body," to everyone present.

Even Kurokawa Kazuya, who only had a superficial understanding of magic, could sense the immense magical power contained within it.

You can feel that immense sense of oppression.

It makes one wonder—who would have thought that humans could do something like this?

Although Kurokawa Kazuya had sensed similar dangers in other worlds, they were so perilous that he had only observed from the sidelines. This was the first time he had ever directly confronted something like this.

It wasn't just him.

The same is true for others.

You could tell from the surprised looks on their faces that they, like Kurokawa Kazuya, were visiting for the first time.

This is the first time we've ever seen this thing.

Look at these people's faces.

Olga Marie, sitting in the control room nearby, had a slight smile on her lips.

Everyone who actually saw Chaldea was amazed by it.

"This is...Chaldea!" Olga Marie thought with a mix of emotions. This was the legacy her father left her, one she had to inherit no matter what.

"You can visit here for a while, but don't get close to Chaldea... you'll die!" Leif said with a smile, looking at the group of visitors in front of him. "You really will die, don't be fooled by its harmless appearance. If you get too close..."

"In addition, if you want to participate in the Master qualification test this afternoon, you need to register first. We also need to confirm the number of participants and make preparations."

Kazuya Kurokawa nodded and asked Ryougi Shiki, "Do you want to participate in the Master test this afternoon? You're free anyway, so why not give it a try?"

"Okay, let's give it a try."

Chapter 335 Master Qualification Test

"Please come this way to register for the Master qualification test," a Chaldean staff member said to the people in Chaldea.

The enormous artificial celestial body was still emitting light.

Although it was frozen in FGO 2.0, it's still unknown whether it can be restarted.

But that was done by a Servant, so it's not something a human can do to it.

There were no clearly identified defensive forces nearby.

At least on the surface, no search was conducted when they entered.

Although, this may not be of much use to magicians.

After all, even without weapons or magical costumes, a magician is still a powerful force.

However, the fact that not even a formality was performed still surprised Kurokawa Kazuya.

"Brother~~"

Just then, a sound came from inside.

Kazumi Kurokawa walked in from the side entrance, wearing Chaldea's work uniform.

"What? You've already decided to join? Aren't you going to reconsider?"

“Yeah, I’m in.” Kurokawa Kazumi nodded. “After all… this place seems really fun, and if what you said is true, then there’s no place more suitable for me than this, right? Hehe, I believe you.”

"...I said that to get you to leave here."

Kurokawa Kazuya sighed softly.

Battles are dangerous, and Kurokawa Kazumi isn't like herself; she has Mystic Eyes, Avalon, Command Seals, and Noble Phantasms.

There's also D4C, which can travel between parallel worlds.

Although on the surface he might not even be able to defeat a third-rate Servant with high magic resistance, if he takes all his trump cards into account, he might be able to go toe-to-toe with even an exceptional Heroic Spirit.

Correspondingly, Kurokawa Kazumi is in far greater danger.

Ripple, magic, stand-in.

That's all she has.

And the strongest of them is undoubtedly her stand-in.

As for this place... the reason why Chaldea is the most suitable for her is quite simple.

Because, as long as it's here, as long as the burning of human beings is carried out...

Therefore, there will definitely be no shortage of battles.

Kazumi Kurokawa's Stand is a device that steals other people's life force to strengthen itself, and it can also use the separated life force to heal others.

This is a means of manipulating small sources, that is, manipulating life force.

In the world of FGO, various fantasy species such as dragons, demons, and chimeras frequently appear.

At first, Kurokawa Kazumi might only be able to fight against things like the Dragon Fang Soldiers, and even wyverns might not be a match for her, but... as long as she keeps surviving and keeps fighting.

For her, the world is like a game.

You will gain experience by defeating monsters.

Moreover, it is a small source of enhancement, rather than an enhancement of power.

Therefore, her strength, speed, stamina, recovery ability, etc. will all increase at a steady rate... This Stand is simply a bug.

There is enough source of energy for her to absorb, and Kurokawa Kazuya doesn't know how far she will grow in the future.

but--

All of this is based on the premise that there are monsters to kill.

Without a doubt, among the countless Type-Moon worlds, there are no more monsters to encounter than in the FGO world.
