People in Type-Moon start from adopting Sakura

Hearing that Gilgamesh openly wanted to abandon him, Tōsaka Tokiomi could no longer sit still and he almost roared in anger.

But all he got in response was a few flying golden blades that pierced directly in front of him, frightening Tōsaka Tokiomi so much that he suddenly sat down on the ground.

Obviously, Gilgamesh's meaning was very clear at this moment. As long as he dared to interrupt him again, the clown Tōsaka Tokiomi would have no need to exist.

"Relying on you... This is such a difficult choice. Although I know that if I rely on you, my future will be smooth sailing. With your kindness and generosity, I can also make rapid progress on the path of magic, and even the Holy Grail will be within my reach. But unfortunately, I have already promised my Scathach that I will help her realize her wish with my own hands, and my life will also be entrusted to her spear, so I can only beg for mercy and do not obey your command."

"...I see. It seems I'm late this time."

Gilgamesh glanced at Scathach, who had stood next to Rowe at some point, and did not force her. He then laughed out loud towards the sky.

But soon, the smile on his face suddenly disappeared, replaced by a hint of arrogance and greed. He stared at Luo Wei in front of him, and then said without any concealment.

"However, even so, all the treasures in this world still belong to this king! This naturally includes you, the treasure that this king has never controlled."

Hearing this, Luo Wei couldn't help but shudder.

"Why do I feel like I'm being watched by someone sinister? Could this guy have that kind of hobby?"

Thinking of the unofficial history recorded in the Epic of Gilgamesh, he suddenly felt his back tighten.

"Do you wish to steal my Master? Arrogant Hero King, just because I have remained silent does not mean I have no objections. If you wish to snatch my treasure from my hands, then come and ask this vermilion magic spear of mine if it will grant you the favor."

Facing the threat from Gilgamesh, Scathach stood up, her crimson eyes as beautiful and intoxicating as wine collided with Gilgamesh's dragon-snake-like pupils, and she fought back without any hesitation.

"Hmph, Queen of the Shadow Kingdom, I know what you desire. Queen of the Demon Realm, there is no need to be so arrogant. When the time comes, I will personally grant you the death you desire."

Gilgamesh sneered and said that no one in this world could stop him from getting what he wanted, not even the queen of the demon world.

"Kill me? Haha, you mean to say that with this body of yours, controlled by humans and once defeated by death, you want to cross the seven gates of the Kingdom of Shadows and bring me death? Don't make me laugh, Gilgamesh. You once lost to death and suffered so much pain, and now you are so confident that you shamelessly tell me that you want to defeat death."

"As the Master said, we have already made a pact. His fate rests with the tip of my spear, and my life will be ended by him personally. Therefore, this time I must win the Holy Grail and hand it over to my Master, who shares my ideals. Anyone who stands in our way of fulfilling our pact, no matter who it is, will be killed by my spear without hesitation."

Scathach sneered back.

There was no concealment of his esteem and preference for Luo Wei in his words.

Seeing this scene, Iskandar couldn't help but sigh.

The military advisor was indeed a military advisor, having earned the favor and approval of himself, the King of Heroes, and the Queen of the Demon Realm. If he wasn't also very satisfied with his own little Master, he would have been tempted to go and snatch her away at this moment.

Kenneth shook his head when he saw the war that had started for Rowe, while Finn found it very interesting. If he had met such an outstanding and interesting person in his lifetime, he would have tried his best to recruit him into his own knight order.

Tōsaka Tokiomi, who was despised by his own servants and had to watch Gilgamesh and Scathach almost fighting over a magician, was completely speechless.

…I was here first, but how did things turn out like this?

"Very good, very good! You need to have this kind of courage, otherwise I won't feel any pleasure when I kill you, huha ...

After hearing Scathach's answer, Gilgamesh laughed out loud, his face full of anticipation and excitement.

"The pinnacle of martial arts! This king really wants to experience it!"

"Good, good, really good, fellow cultivators, I had a lot of fun tonight." After laughing, Gilgamesh's figure gradually disappeared from the courtyard, leaving only some golden spots of light dissipating on the spot, and the sound echoing in the courtyard.

"When we meet again, I will kill you without hesitation and take the spoils that belong to me."

The voice faded away, and Gilgamesh's figure completely disappeared. Only a few remaining servants and masters were left, as well as Tōsaka Tokiomi who was left here by Gilgamesh.

Luo Wei walked up to Tōsaka Tokiomi and patted his shoulder as if nothing had happened.

"Master Tosaka, if you want to go back, I can give you a ride."

Kenneth's eyes lit up behind him.

Now that the guests have left, there is naturally no possibility for this banquet to continue.

Rejecting Altria's request to stay, Luo Wei smiled and reminded her that she could only open the letter after she had figured out the three questions. She could ask for the answers when they met again.

He laughed heartily. Then, having returned with a full load, he did not stay any longer and left with Scathach.

The heroes present also understood this tacitly.

Because they knew that after this banquet, the battle would not be just a small fight like before.

Someone is ready to put an end to this Holy Grail War.

Chapter 7: The War Begins (K words)

"Is it...about to begin? The true Holy Grail War."

"It seems that after some minor quarrels, it seems that things are finally getting serious."

The young man leaned back in his chair, looking at the gray ceiling alone, and let out a faint sigh. However, there was no melancholy on his face at this moment, but rather a hint of excitement.

"Gilgamesh is truly remarkable. He managed to get most of what I was saying out of him... This made Kenneth-sensei realize that I clearly had a purpose."

"Even if I go back now, I won't be able to gain their trust so easily. Once the seeds of vigilance are planted, it will be difficult to remove them easily. And Tōsaka Tokiomi, when I laid all the truth out in the open, his life must have been in danger, right? I was even planning to give Matou Kariya a chance to face him head-on, what a pity, but..."

"Why didn't Matou Kariya come? Did something go wrong with Berserker again?"

Recalling what happened at the banquet and everything he had experienced, Luo Wei couldn't help but sigh and kept muttering to himself.

"Master, do you have a headache?" Scathach, who was leaning on the chair, suddenly asked, and then asked him: "I can't see it at all. Anyway, what you paid tonight is just a small matter, right? You won't even have any big emotional fluctuations because of it."

"As expected, Queen Scathach, you really understand me."

Hearing this, Rovi slowly stood up from his chair and said confidently, "They should be the ones worrying. Whether it's exposing their intention to sacrifice Archer to reach the source, or their attack plan being exposed prematurely, these things are actually trivial matters to me. After all, our biggest goal has been achieved, right? And we've also gained something very unexpected. Now all we need to do is use Irisviel as a bargaining chip to trade with them."

"Tsk tsk, Junior Crowley, your words really make me feel sad..."

Just as Lowei was talking to Scathach, Aozaki Touko, who was ordered by Lowei to pack up Irisviel, pushed the door open and walked out. She was seen walking out wearing her signature windbreaker. Because she had been in the workshop with those messy experimental materials for such a long time, Aozaki Touko's hair was a little messy, and her body was filled with the unpleasant smell of mixed materials.

"You should take a shower, Orange-senpai."

Seeing the other party appear, Luo Wei fanned his nose and then kindly reminded him.

"You still have the nerve to say that you have a place to take a shower here?"

In response to Luo Wei's complaints, Aozaki Touko rolled her eyes at him, then looked around and saw the parking lot under her feet, which was completely enclosed by Luo Wei using special magic.

This place is more than ten meters above the ground. Not to mention a bathroom, there are not even any living facilities. It's no wonder that Scathach clamors to go out and play every day. After all, the environment here is not much better than that of the Shadow Kingdom. It's really not a place for human beings to stay.

However, those so-called flaws were only mundane issues; from a magician's perspective, this location, close to the ley lines and the location of the Greater Holy Grail, was an ideal location for drawing magical power while maintaining secrecy, a truly blessed feng shui location.

As for comfort, Luo Wei had never considered it at all.

Compared to those unimportant things, what he cares about now is the colorful gem hanging in the center of the hall, and the white cup below that is emitting light and constantly blending with it. At this moment, the two complement each other and shine in the distance. What he expects has now taken shape.

Even Luo Wei's eyes became excited when he saw this important scene.

'It's finally almost over, my ultimate dress is mine.

"What a remarkable ritual! It's crafted using the magical energy stored in the ley lines and the Holy Grail, incorporating your own unique theories and techniques. Combined with the runes engraved on it, it feels almost divinely crafted."

Scathach, standing aside, expressed her own opinion, and at the same time, she became more and more appreciative of her Master's methods.

The ceremonial dress in front of him is an absolute treasure that could only be forged by the God of Craftsmen, let alone in modern times. It is hard to imagine that it was made by a modern magician, and in this era.

Amazing, really amazing.

Scathach was already looking forward to the power this thing would display when it was finally born. Perhaps only something of this level could satisfy her in the end.

"Well, after all, this is the supreme ceremonial garment that incorporates the Philosopher's Stone..."

Luo Wei nodded. Thanks to his tireless efforts, nearly a third of the magical power stored in Fuyuki City's leylines and the Greater Holy Grail had been extracted. Through his precise manipulation, it was now concentrated here, condensing into the new pseudo-Holy Grail before him, the ultimate ceremonial garment he had planned. And now, with the addition of the Philosopher's Stone gifted to him by Gilgamesh, the already certain situation suddenly became even more interesting, and the progress had taken a huge leap forward.

The dress in front of him had become even more perfect than he had expected.

It has truly reached the level of divine creation, and it looks truly magnificent...

"Oh, really! My research has just reached a critical juncture, and as soon as you come back you ask me to bring that android out. You even say you want to exchange the Lesser Holy Grail for Avalon. I really don't understand."

Aozaki Touko, who had just been called out of the workshop, felt a little unhappy about the interruption of her research and Luo Wei's decision, and was also confused.

"Although Avalon is very valuable, it can't compare to the Holy Grail, right? Except for King Arthur, none of us can use that treasure. Even if we get it, at best it can only be used as a healing and curse-lifting amulet. As for using the Holy Grail to exchange with Emiya Kiritsugu?" Aozaki Touko asked.

She was completely bewildered by Rowe's current thoughts, and she didn't understand why he would trade the Lesser Holy Grail for a useless Avalon. After all, the point of the Holy Grail War was to achieve ultimate victory. Clearly, in this regard, the Lesser Holy Grail was far more effective than the Avalon. So... what was Rowe doing?

Although she was confused, Aozaki Touko did not refuse Luo Wei's request.

At best, she was just a little reluctant to let go of the third magic she had obtained, so she wanted to study it thoroughly with all her might. However, she had not truly forgotten the cause and effect of the matter.

Aozaki Touko knew full well that even the opportunity to touch the Lesser Holy Grail and dispel the Third Magic was only granted to her by Rowe, who saw her as a friend and wanted to help her untie the knot that had once trapped her. To this end, he was even willing to share the existence of the Third Magic and the secrets of the Holy Grail War with her, and he offered her all the support he could without reservation.

In comparison, what she did for Luo Wei was completely disproportionate.

Originally, she wanted to use her own magical achievements, runes, as a reward, but when Scathach appeared, her so-called runes became a complete joke.

After all, anyone with eyes can see that Scathach values and is satisfied with Rowe. Although the two have only been together for a short time, the relationship between them is like that of old friends, who trust and can rely on each other.

As for Scathach, Rowe can delegate power to the greatest extent, even to the point of being too free. He will unconditionally provide Scathach with what she wants, encourage her to go out and see the modern world, and also make a promise that he will fulfill her wishes in his own way at the last moment.

As for Rowe, Scathach can also give her trust and help him win wholeheartedly. The two are like comrades with tacit understanding. Things like runes have naturally been given to him a long time ago.

In her time, Scathach would teach anyone who sincerely came to learn the art, let alone Rowe, who was now very much to her liking. If time allowed, she really wanted to train Rowe personally, take him in as an apprentice, and train him to become a hero as great as Cu Chulainn.

In contrast, Aozaki Touko, who had to work like a slave and please everyone, yet had only received three runes, undoubtedly looked a little disappointed. She might even ask Luo Wei for more runes later.

Alas, after thinking about it, I really owe more and more favors...

I don’t know how to pay it back anymore.

Aozaki Touko sighed helplessly.

However, Luo Wei didn't care much about what he was thinking, and he didn't hide the information he knew from her.

"The reason for abandoning the Lesser Holy Grail is that, no matter what, she will eventually return to the place where the Holy Grail descended when the Holy Grail War draws to a close. Even if she holds it, the effect it can have is not significant, not to mention that the Greater Holy Grail is currently experiencing some problems. Therefore, using it to exchange for Avalon with Emiya Kiritsugu is the option that will maximize the benefits."

Luo Wei patiently explained to Aozaki Orange, then he took a step forward and walked onto the altar in the center of the room. He came to the supreme ceremonial dress that was about to be completed and gently stroked its smooth and beautiful outline.

"Now, I've extracted nearly a third of the Greater Holy Grail's magic power. Combined with the Philosopher's Stone provided by Gilgamesh, and with the runes and the Alchemy Array, I've completed the conceptual completion. It can be said that this pseudo-Holy Grail in my hand, aside from its slightly inferior magical power, is capable of rivaling the Greater Holy Grail in all other respects. So, there's no need to worry."

"As for the other reason, the Hero King Gilgamesh's Noble Phantasm is the Sword of Sundering, a terrifying Noble Phantasm capable of destroying the world. Even Scathach finds it difficult to compete with it in terms of power. And because Scathach's main function this time is Caster, even her ultimate trump card is unfortunately restrained by the opponent's Noble Phantasm. Therefore, we need a Noble Phantasm that can resist the Sword of Sundering as a substitute to deceive the opponent. And this thing, besides the tomb of a certain Sun King and the Chain of Heaven, is the scabbard of Avalon, which also has the property of rectification. And Sister Orange, you must know that the threat to us is different depending on whether King Arthur has Avalon or not. Doing this can not only weaken King Arthur's strength, but also resist the Noble Phantasm of the Hero King, so why not do it? As for the method of releasing it..."

Luo Wei smiled, then slowly released the pink petals in his hand. He continued, "Originally, I planned to use alchemy and sufficient magic power to forcibly activate it. But fortunately, a certain magical being offered a method of deployment, asking me to help him awaken a sleeping princess. Thanks to him, my chances of victory are much greater now. Clearly, we can begin the final battle."

While Luo Wei patiently explained his plan to her, he stretched out his hand to soothe the Supreme Dress that was trembling slightly in front of him, as if it couldn't wait to be born.

"Be patient, be patient. Although it's the final moment, this is only the second half. The battle between you and me should be left to the end."

He lowered his head and murmured softly, as if trying to soothe it with words.

"Wake up Princess, magical beings, what on earth are these strange things? Is this a fairy tale from somewhere?"

At this moment, after listening to Luo Wei's explanation, Aozaki Touko still had some doubts in her heart, but she no longer had any objections.

After all, from the beginning till now, this student had never once cheated her, nor had he ever lied to her about anything important. Even if there had been some unexpected incidents at certain points, the battle had always been within his plan. Aside from her minor contribution to the current outcome, she had played no role at all.

Since it has come to this, why can't she trust him? Rather, since she has accepted so much affection from him, at this critical moment, it is she who should accompany him to do it.

Thinking of this, Aozaki Touko couldn't help but chuckle, and then a wanton smile appeared at the corner of her mouth.

"Since you've made up your mind, then go for it. I don't know what your specific plans are, but this time, I'm always here for you."

"Even if you really do die, as long as your death isn't too complete, even if you're only halfway there, I'll still be able to pull you back from the brink of death."

"Is that so... That's a really reassuring assurance. Anyway, thank you so much for your concern, Orange-senpai."

Hearing Aozaki Touko's assurance, Luo Wei couldn't help but smile slightly.

Then he looked at the ritual formation in front of him that was ready to go and only needed to be activated, as well as the ceremonial dress hanging above, shook his head slightly, and then asked himself the question.

Failed?

No, absolutely not.

Now that things have come to this, and we have come this far, how could we possibly fail?

What awaits him is only the fruits of final victory.

That being the case...

"Then let's set out together and win this Holy Grail War together."

After the last small talk, Luo Wei noticed that the time agreed with Emiya Kiritsugu was almost up, so he looked at Scathach, who was already ready, holding a spear and smiling at her, and Aozaki Touko, who had just lit a cigarette for him and had a wanton smile on her face. For a moment, a smile appeared on his face.

"There is no opponent ahead of us."

As he spoke, he stretched out his hand and pushed open the door, walking into the outside world. Then he suddenly touched his hair, changing his hairstyle immediately, completely changing the humble impression of a good guy. He truly revealed his sharp and ambitious eyes, overlooking this endless world.

Regarding this situation, the moods of the two people behind him also began to change. Orange sighed, but didn't say anything.
