A sound like chewing on crunchy bone rang out, and even Gao Wen couldn't help but let out a painful cry.

Blackbird Requiem began to devour Gawain's body—and more importantly, because Qin Chuan did not intend to kill Gawain now, he only needed Blackbird Requiem to consume half of Gawain's body.

This was even more terrifying for Gawain. He remained conscious, watching helplessly as half of his body was devoured by the Blackbird Requiem. The intense pain made it difficult for him to react.

In situations like this, keeping him alive might actually be more painful.

There was nothing that could be done about it. Qin Chuan still remembered that his main mission was to have Fujimaru Ritsuka return to Chaldea and then summon him there.

In other words, Qin Chuan must make Fujimaru Ritsuka and the others understand his value at this singularity—in that case, he must leave Fujimaru Ritsuka and the others with some powerful enemies.

In the original storyline, Gao Wen was a high hurdle that Fujimaru Ritsuka and the others had to face. If Fujimaru Ritsuka and the others didn't understand the strength of the enemy, how could they understand the strength of Qin Chuan?

For this reason, Qin Chuan did not eat Gao Wenquan—in the Holy City, with the Lion King's blessing, even if Gao Wenquan was left with only one breath, he should be able to be saved.

Of course, because Gawain attacked him, Qin Chuan didn't just swallow a hand like he did when facing Bucciarati and the others; instead, he ate half of Gawain's body.

Soon, Blackbird Requiem devoured half of Gawain's body, and Qin Chuan also sensed that he had gained the ability of "the number of saints".

With its objective achieved, Blackbird Requiem once again transformed into lightning, shooting straight into the sky and disappearing into the clouds.

It was only then that Mordred finally realized what was happening.

Despite what seemed like a lot had just happened, Gawain and Blackbird Requiem's ​​strength allowed them to complete the entire process in just a few seconds.

Seeing Gawain lying on the square, barely alive and only half of his body remaining, Mordred quickly shouted:

"Oh no! Gawain is being eaten by some strange thing and is about to die!"

Chapter 292 Qin Chuan Starts to Be Picky About Food

The people at the Radiant Composite Temple were completely unaware of what was happening in the Holy City.

Qin Chuan withdrew "Blackbird Requiem", and almost immediately afterward, the door in front of him opened, and Fujimaru Ritsuka and the others walked out with subtle expressions.

"Are you done talking?"

Qin Chuan raised an eyebrow, looked at Fujimaru Ritsuka and the others who came out, and stood up as well, walking towards the room.

"Then it's my turn to meet Osmandis and see what reason he has for making me wait outside."

“Mr. Qin Chuan, you should be a little careful. That Ramses II… doesn’t seem very easy to talk to.”

Seeing that Qin Chuan seemed to dislike Ramses II, Fujimaru Ritsuka quickly pulled him aside and whispered some words of advice.

As humanity's last Master, Fujimaru Ritsuka could sense that Ramses II was very powerful, but had a terrible personality and was the type to look down on people.

Indeed, this is true. In some FGO storylines, Ramses II can even get along well with Gilgamesh, which suggests that Ramses II's personality is not much better than Gilgamesh's.

Although Fujimaru Ritsuka could sense that Qin Chuan was also very strong, she was just an ordinary person with mediocre magical talent, so she couldn't distinguish between Qin Chuan and Ramses II.

Out of a bit of personal bias, Fujimaru Ritsuka naturally favored Qin Chuan, who had saved her twice before, which is why she specifically pulled him aside and whispered this reminder to him.

"...Don't worry, if that guy dares not speak to me properly, I'll teach him a lesson about manners."

Qin Chuan couldn't help but find Fujimaru Ritsuka's reminder somewhat amusing—he didn't think Ramses II was that ignorant.

The fact that he separated himself from Fujimaru Ritsuka and the others probably means he's already realized his special status. If he dares to give him attitude when he knows he's special, then he's really asking for trouble.

After saying that, Qin Chuan walked into the room and closed the heavy door behind him, leaving Fujimaru Ritsuka and the others looking at each other in bewilderment.

"I think what Mr. Qin Chuan meant by 'teaching etiquette' might not actually be teaching, right?"

Mashu, standing next to Fujimaru Ritsuka, said somewhat speechlessly. Of course, she understood what Qin Chuan meant—if Ramses II didn't know manners, then beat him up until he did.

Although Qin Chuan did save Fujimaru Ritsuka twice, he was clearly not the kind of person who followed the rules; he was the kind of person who might resort to violence at the slightest provocation.

If we follow the common faction classification, it would probably be classified as a Chaos Neutral faction.

"Hmm... The name Qin Chuan only appears in some fictional works or in the margins of history, but it is clear that those minor characters do not match his strength."

Da Vinci, standing to the side, was also quite conflicted. Since being summoned to Chaldea as a female Heroic Spirit, this was the first time she had encountered a Heroic Spirit whose name she knew but whom she still didn't understand at all.

"But he really is a genuine Heroic Spirit, which is really strange... Where did the Counter find such a strange guy?"

Like everyone else, Leonardo da Vinci believed that Qin Chuan was one of the heroic spirits sent by the Counter Force.

In these singularities, wild Heroic Spirits often come to help Fujimaru Ritsuka and the others. These are the work of the Suppression Force, which takes the initiative to act after noticing the anomaly of the singularity.

After all, the result of a singularity is the destruction of human civilization, and there is a restraining force belonging to humanity among the restraining forces, so naturally we cannot just watch the singularity continue.

Qin Chuan has already helped Fujimaru Ritsuka twice since he appeared, so it's normal for them to believe that it was the work of the Counter Force.

"Besides that, Mr. Qin Chuan's help to you probably goes beyond that, doesn't it?"

As Da Vinci spoke, she glanced at Fujimaru Ritsuka—although she looked no different from when she left Chaldea, she felt as if there was something else about Fujimaru Ritsuka.

"Your physical condition seems to have improved a lot compared to before. Did Mr. Qin Chuan do something to you?"

Fujimaru Ritsuka gave an awkward laugh—as expected of Leonardo da Vinci, she did indeed see something.

Of course, she couldn't say that she was wearing the "maid outfit" given to her by Qin Chuan, and that it was this "maid outfit" that enhanced her defense and physical fitness.

……

As Qin Chuan entered the central hall, he immediately saw Ramses II standing inside, waiting for him.

There was actually a throne high above in the room, which belonged to the Pharaoh—according to the original plot, Ramses II should have been sitting on it, looking down at Fujimaru Ritsuka and the others.

However, Ramses II was clearly not stupid. If he dared to sit like that when facing Qin Chuan, Qin Chuan would probably have to pull him down from there.

Ramses II was also a hero spirit of the Chaos Neutral faction, so he knew very well that Qin Chuan was similar to himself to some extent, both being loyal to their own desires and capable of doing anything.

"々Here it comes, the otherworldly hero named Qin Chuan."

Hearing footsteps behind him, Ramses II turned to look at Qin Chuan—his face did not show any arrogance, but rather a solemn expression.

Clearly, even someone as arrogant as him knew that Qin Chuan was not someone who could be treated with arrogance. If he said the wrong thing, he might be killed on the spot.

His current condition is not good—although he looks fine, his head and neck have actually separated.

After being summoned to this era, Ramses II implemented a series of defensive measures to contend with the Holy City, which affected the lives of the Mountain People and led to his assassination by the First Hassan.

As the progenitor of the Assassin Hassans, the First Hassan possessed a Grand-rank Spirit Origin. Even Ramses II could not stop his assassinations, and his head was severed on the spot.

However, because he was in his own magnificent composite temple, Ramses II did not die; his head would occasionally fall off his neck, requiring him to hold it in place.

"Did you specifically separate me from the Chaldeans to talk? Is there something you want to say to me privately?"

Qin Chuan didn't care, and simply asked Ramses II.

He wasn't interested in Ramses II; she wasn't a beautiful girl, and her abilities didn't particularly appeal to Qin Chuan.

When Qin Chuan first obtained the "Blackbird," his strength was relatively average, so he was naturally indiscriminate in his consumption of raw meat and wanted to eat everything he saw.

However, Qin Chuan's strength has now increased significantly. Unless it's a particularly useful ability, or an ability like Gawain's "Saint's Number" that can multiply combat power regardless of combat strength, Qin Chuan is too lazy to take action.

Ramses II's strength wasn't bad among the Heroic Spirits, but he certainly didn't meet Qin Chuan's standards.

Chapter 293 The Message of the Restraining Force

When facing Qin Chuan, Ramses II didn't dare to keep him in suspense and directly stated the reason why he had kept Qin Chuan behind for a private talk.

"I see, it was the inhibitory force that made you send me a message."

Ramses II's reason was the Counter Force—that's right, as the origin of the Type-Moon world, the Counter Force also took notice of Qin Chuan, this visitor from another world.

However, since the Counter Force cannot directly interfere with the restoration of human reason, all it can do during Fujimaru Ritsuka's journey is to help summon some Heroic Spirits as an aid.

In previous singularities, Fujimaru Ritsuka and his group always encountered wild Heroic Spirits in various places. These Heroic Spirits were summoned by the local ley lines, which are the Counter Force.

However, Qin Chuan's appearance clearly made the Counterforce feel uneasy, so the Counterforce chose Ramses II and asked him to convey some words to Qin Chuan.

As for why Ramses II was chosen to deliver the message instead of summoning a new Heroic Spirit to communicate with Qin Chuan... it's probably because they felt there weren't many Heroic Spirits stronger than Ramses II.

Ramses II had no way of explaining this – even though he was considered one of the stronger Heroic Spirits, he felt immense pressure when facing Qin Chuan.

"Simply put, the Counterforce wants you not to try to seize the Holy Grail in this world."

Ramses II conveyed the meaning of the restraint to Qin Chuan—to be honest, when 457 first heard this sentence, Ramses II felt like his heart had stopped.

Because the "Holy Grail" mentioned by the Restraint Force is now in the hands of Ramses II.

The reason for the emergence of singularities is that the culprits left "Holy Grails" in various places throughout history, and then someone obtained these Holy Grails, summoned Heroic Spirits, and rewrote history.

Therefore, in the process of Fujimaru Ritsuka and others restoring history, they must also retrieve these Holy Grails—this is one of their responsibilities in restoring human order.

If Qin Chuan steals the Holy Grail from this singularity, then Fujimaru Ritsuka and the others will have one less Holy Grail to recover, and the subsequent consequences will be immeasurable.

The restraining force was probably worried that Qin Chuan would do something that would disrupt the restoration of human order, which is why it specifically sent Ramses II to advise Qin Chuan not to touch the Holy Grail.

However, Qin Chuan laughed when he heard this:

"Why does the Counter Force think I would target the Holy Grail? I never even considered targeting the Holy Grail."

That's the truth. The Holy Grail's function is simply to condense a large amount of magical power. If he hadn't learned how to create magical power from Moro, he might have considered stealing a Holy Grail to absorb magical power.

However, Qin Chuan has now learned how to create magic himself after studying with Moro, so the Holy Grail is no longer of any use to him.

But then Qin Chuan thought about it again and roughly guessed what it was.

Perhaps it's because he attacked the Holy Grail in the story of "Fate/Zero"?

However, that was because the main quest of the Fate/Zero storyline required Qin Chuan to obtain the Holy Grail in the Fourth Holy Grail War, which is why Qin Chuan took action. Otherwise, he wouldn't have been interested in a cup filled with black mud.

He probably didn't expect that the black mud magic in the Holy Grail would react with the "ki" from the Dragon Balls in Qin Chuan's body, transforming into magic from the Dragon Ball world.

Although it's unclear whether the Counter Force witnessed my actions in the Fate/Zero storyline or sensed magical power within my body related to the Holy Grail.

In any case, the impression that Qin Chuan would seize the Holy Grail is etched into the Counter Force's memory. It's likely that every time Qin Chuan participates in a new storyline in the Type-Moon world, the Counter Force will inevitably worry that Qin Chuan will try to steal the Holy Grail.

If he were just an ordinary Heroic Spirit, there would be no need to worry too much about him stealing the Holy Grail, but... Qin Chuan is no ordinary Heroic Spirit; his combat power is far beyond what is expected.

"really?"

Upon hearing Qin Chuan say that he had no interest in the Holy Grail, Ramses II expressed some skepticism—after all, these were the words of the Counter Force, and he naturally believed the Counter Force's statement more than Qin Chuan's.

However, it wouldn't matter if he didn't believe it. If Qin Chuan really wanted to seize the Holy Grail, Ramses II felt that he probably wouldn't have much of a chance to resist.

……

"Mr. Qin Chuan! How are you? Are you alright?"

After Qin Chuan walked out of Ramses II's hall, he was greeted by Fujimaru Ritsuka's concerned expression.

In the story, the protagonist, Fujimaru Ritsuka, is often jokingly referred to as a Grand Succubus because she always manages to gain the favor of the Heroic Spirits—in reality, it's because she genuinely cares about them.

Qin Chuan is clearly now within her sphere of concern, and perhaps even more so than the average heroic spirit.

After all, she was still wearing the maid outfit that Qin Chuan had given her.

"What could possibly happen to me?"

Qin Chuan chuckled to himself. Wasn't Fujimaru Ritsuka concerned about the wrong person? She should be concerned about whether Ramses II was alright.

If he really did clash with Ramses II, it definitely wouldn't be Qin Chuan who got into trouble.

"It seems that even the arrogant Ramses II treats Mr. Qin Chuan with great respect."

Leonardo da Vinci, however, saw something more—judging from Qin Chuan's attitude, Qin Chuan was the one in a superior position during the conversation between Ramses II and Qin Chuan.

Although she didn't know what Ramses II and Qin Chuan talked about, it seemed that Qin Chuan and Fujimaru Ritsuka had a good relationship, which made her feel a little relieved.

This singularity is already quite special, and the enemy she will face is probably extraordinary. If Qin Chuan is also an enemy, she feels that she can really go home.

"So, will Mr. Qin Chuan be joining us this time?"

Mashu, standing to the side, also looked at Qin Chuan with some anticipation—she had learned from Nitocris and Leonardo da Vinci that Qin Chuan's strength was probably extraordinary when he was talking to Ramses II.

If Qin Chuan could join them this time, dealing with the singularity would probably become much easier, right?

"No, I will not be traveling with you for the time being."

However, Qin Chuan refused. If he wanted Fujimaru Ritsuka and the others to choose to summon him after returning to Chaldea, then he had to make them understand how difficult this singularity was.

Only after understanding how difficult it is to access singularities can Qin Chuan's strength be truly appreciated.

Hmm... it sounds a bit like a form of PUA (Pick-Up Artist) tactics, but that's just how the main quest the system gives us.

"In short, I will be staying with Osmandis for the next period of time. Come find me again after you have a better understanding of this singularity."

Qin Chuan saw that Fujimaru Ritsuka seemed a little disappointed, so he patted her head.
