Chapter 469 Reines and Matou Sakura
"...You guys really gave me a hard time right from the start."
In the living room of the mansion, Bazett looked at Reines and Qin Chuan with a somewhat speechless expression, while behind her stood Cú Chulainn, who had recovered from his injuries.
As a magician, I certainly know simple healing magic—if a Servant is injured, I can quickly restore them to full health by using a healing spell.
Just like in the original work, Bazett has short, wine-red hair and wears a suit. Although she is outstanding in appearance, she does not give people a gentle feeling.
Calling her "heroic" would be the most appropriate word, which explains why she's jokingly referred to as "a handsome guy with a chest".
"This is your own heroic spirit coming here to get beaten up, it's not my Qin Chuan's fault."
Reines sat on the sofa opposite in the living room, a smug look on her face—a feeling she hadn't experienced in a long time.
Since the decline of the El-Melloi family, she has been walking on thin ice in everything she does. If she takes a wrong step, she may fall into an abyss from which she can never recover.
16. Even from a very young age, they have to face assassination attempts from both family members and outsiders, so they have to be careful at all times.
Today, Qin Chuan gave her a taste of triumph – as long as Qin Chuan was by her side, even if a heroic spirit attacked her, Qin Chuan could slap it away with one blow.
Bazette's conflicted expression today wasn't because of his El-Melloi reputation, but because of Qin Chuan's strength beside him.
"What do you mean, Qin Chuan from your family? That guy is just a heroic spirit that was summoned a few days ago."
Standing behind Bazett, Cú Chulainn couldn't help but mutter a complaint—as a Heroic Spirit, he knew very well that he and Qin Chuan would have to disappear after the Holy Grail War ended.
However, as soon as he finished speaking, Qin Chuan gave him a calm look, and he dared not continue.
In fact, Cú Chulainn was right. Under normal circumstances, after completing the main quest of this world, he would no longer be able to enter this quest world.
Even though "Fate/St. Night" was originally the storyline of the last Holy Grail War in Fuyuki City, it is very likely that it will no longer be possible to enter Fuyuki City through the system in the future.
[Current World: Fate/Stay Night]
Main Quest: Obtain the Holy Grail in the Fifth Holy Grail War
[Player Kobold's strength synchronization status: 0%]
Players are encouraged to progress through the main storyline to unlock synchronized power levels.
The main mission of this world is also to obtain the Holy Grail. The mission will end after the Holy Grail War, and Qin Chuan must leave.
However... this time Qin Chuan has figured out the function of "King's Army", so he can choose a force in this world and put it into "King's Army".
In this way, Qin Chuan can enter this world at any time through the "King's Army Force" without worrying about losing contact with it.
Cú Chulainn will indeed have to leave completely after the Holy Grail War ends, but Qin Chuan doesn't need to worry about that.
"You really don't know how to talk, you heroic spirit."
However, while Qin Chuan knew he could return to this world in the future, Reines did not.
The sense of security that Reines had just felt because Qin Chuan was by her side was shattered by Cú Chulainn's words, which made Reines's gaze towards Cú Chulainn turn dangerous.
She was already considering whether to have Qin Chuan kill Cú Chulainn first, after the Holy Grail War officially began.
Bazett gave an awkward smile, then turned and glared helplessly at Cú Chulainn, telling him to stop saying strange things that might provoke Reines and Qin Chuan.
She had been considering whether to form an alliance with someone else, after all, Qin Chuan could slap Cú Chulainn into such a state, it was no wonder that Cú Chulainn couldn't defeat a Heroic Spirit by himself.
As a result, Cú Chulainn has offended Reines and Qin Chuan, and he might be eliminated as soon as the battle officially begins.
"Ahem... Lancer is indeed not very good at speaking."
Bazette coughed lightly, somewhat awkwardly changing the subject in an attempt to ease the tension caused by Cú Chulainn's earlier remarks.
"Speaking of which, didn't I remember Matou Sakura also said she was coming to participate in the Holy Grail War? Didn't she come with you?"
Although the Mage's Association officially only has two slots in the Holy Grail War, in reality, someone can disregard the Mage's Association's quota if they want to participate secretly.
Sakura Matou was that kind of person. Instead of using the Mage's Association's quota, she planned to use her "Matou" name to participate as one of the three starter families.
Although Matou Sakura did not receive the Matou family's insect magic modification and magic circuits, she was indeed adopted by the Tohsaka family and given the Matou family, so she can use this name.
However, when Reines heard Bazett mention Matou Sakura, her expression instantly became somewhat subtle.
"Oh... I didn't come with her."
Reines's gaze wandered, and her voice became much softer, as if she had done something wrong and been exposed.
In fact, Reines and Matou Sakura had a pretty good relationship—the reason is simple: Matou Sakura was sent to the Mage's Association by Qin Chuan.
Under Waver's narration, Reines had always been very interested in Qin Chuan's great strength. Therefore, after learning that Matou Sakura was related to Qin Chuan, she took the initiative to contact Matou Sakura.
Sakura Matou didn't know many people in the Mage's Association, and Reines didn't have many friends because of her family background, so the two quickly became acquainted.
Later, Reines learned more about Qin Chuan from Matou Sakura.
Although Matou Sakura and Qin Chuan didn't actually spend much time together, she was able to recount many small details about Qin Chuan, thus enriching Reines's impression of him.
Reines wanted to summon Qin Chuan, and Matou Sakura played a significant role in this.
But precisely because of this, Reines knew very well that Matou Sakura's purpose in participating in the Holy Grail War was simply to see Qin Chuan, and she had no other desires.
By summoning Qin Chuan first, I had, in a sense, already intercepted him.
She couldn't even imagine what Matou Sakura's expression would be if she saw Qin Chuan being summoned by her ahead of schedule.
"However, Sakura only wants to see Qin Chuan. As for who summoned Qin Chuan, she probably won't care too much..."
This is the only excuse Reines can use to comfort herself now.
Chapter 470 Breast-grabbing Reines, right?
When Reines summoned Qin Chuan, it was already evening, so after visiting Bazett earlier, night had already fallen.
The Holy Grail Wars are fought at night, and during the day, to avoid being discovered by ordinary people, there is usually a truce.
It is probably for this reason that the system set the time when Qin Chuan entered the Fate series quest world at night.
Of course, it's not impossible for Qin Chuan to enter this mission world during the day; he just needs to find an opportunity to enter during the day.
After all, Qin Chuan no longer has the 8-hour anti-addiction period, so even if he stays in the mission world for more than 8 hours, he doesn't need to worry about not being able to take the abilities he gains out of that world.
"In that case, the main objective now is to gather intelligence." (Neighbor)
Back at the base, Reines looked at Qin Chuan and said with satisfaction, "Wu..."
Although Qin Chuan didn't possess the "clairvoyance" she had anticipated, she didn't blame him for it. Instead, she blamed Webber for giving her false intelligence.
However, without clairvoyance, it meant she had to gather intelligence herself—a troublesome task, but Reines was mentally prepared.
"I heard Sakura say that Qin Chuan, the time you can spend in the mortal world each day is limited, right? That's probably a balance effect brought about by your immense strength..." Qi
Qin Chuan was always nowhere to be seen during the day during the previous Holy Grail War, only appearing at night—a fact that Matou Sakura was naturally aware of.
Although the real reason for this situation was that Qin Chuan could only stay in the mission world for 8 hours at the time. (Shan)
But Reines thought that this restriction on Qin Chuan was probably imposed by the Holy Grail War to balance the combat power among the Heroic Spirits.
After all, Qin Chuan is such an exceptional Heroic Spirit that if there were no restrictions, Reines would feel that it was a bit unfair.
"...That's about right."
Qin Chuan shrugged helplessly, without explaining anything about the system and the mission world.
Since Reines believes this is a limitation of some kind of Holy Grail system, it seems quite reasonable.
"Well then, it's time to divide the work and cooperate!"
Reines nodded and said.
"Next, you will help investigate the situation of the three starter families, while I will investigate the information of the remaining Masters."
The three starter families are undoubtedly the greatest enemies in the Holy Grail War, and they may even have summoned their Servants in advance, just like Reines. Therefore, it is natural for Qin Chuan to investigate them.
Although they might encounter enemies and fight, Reines certainly believed in Qin Chuan's abilities and that he wouldn't be at a disadvantage against any Heroic Spirit.
"And what about you? Don't you need me to come along?"
Qin Chuan naturally didn't think he would have any problems; he was more worried about Reines.
Although he should be able to act on his own if Reines really died, he didn't want anything to happen to her since Reines had treated him well.
"It's alright, I will try my best to avoid direct contact with other Masters."
Reines was quite pleased with Qin Chuan's concern, and a smile appeared on her face.
"And if a battle really does occur..."
As she spoke, Reines suddenly waved her hand—a suitcase placed in the corner of the room suddenly opened, and a large amount of mercury-like substance rushed out of it.
Then, the mercury quickly twisted and formed a human shape, transforming into a mercury maid who stood calmly behind Reines.
"Trimmau will escort me to safety."
Trimmau is a familiar created by Reines after she inherited Kenneth's Mystic Code "Moon Spirit Fluid" and infused it with artificial intelligence.
Although the "Moon Spirit Essence Liquid" may seem insignificant in front of Qin Chuan, it is, after all, the magical artifact of Kenneth, the Lord of the Clock Tower, and its power should not be underestimated.
After being transformed into a familiar maid named "Trimmau," she was indeed able to protect Reines and help her escape from ordinary magician battles.
"Hmm... While dealing with magicians isn't a problem, it would be troublesome if we encountered a Heroic Spirit."
Qin Chuan did not deny the superiority of "Moon Spirit Essence Liquid" against magicians. Even Kiritsugu Emiya, the magician killer, was chased down by Moon Spirit Essence Liquid.
However, this thing is not enough when facing Heroic Spirits.
So Qin Chuan thought about it and decided to give Reines some protection.
Then he reached out and, under Reines's astonished gaze, slowly drew a magnificent scabbard from the void.
"This is……"
Reines looked at the sword sheath that appeared in Qin Chuan's hand with some surprise.
As a magician, she could clearly sense that this was a conceptual costume with an extraordinary origin.
"This is Avalon, the scabbard of King Arthur's sword—it has strong defensive and regenerative capabilities. As long as you have it, it can at least guarantee that you won't die."
Qin Chuan reached out and placed his hand on Reines's chest—it looked a bit like he was taking advantage of Reines, which made Reines blush immediately.
But soon, Reines felt the scabbard merge into her body, making her feel much lighter on her feet.
"It seems like my body really does feel different..."
After being implanted with Avalon, Reines was somewhat surprised to feel her body completely transformed.
"But is it really okay for me to have something this important?"
"Anyway, that thing is useless to me."
Qin Chuan said with a smile, "Avalon was originally intended as a transitional item when my 'immortality' could not be fully utilized."
Now that the synchronization rate of the Dragon Ball world has reached 100%, his immortality can be fully utilized, so Avalon is naturally useless.
Using it to provide some protection for Reines is making the best use of it.
……
As night fell, Aoi Tohsaka was alone in the empty room, reading a book.
Although Tokiomi Tohsaka is dead, the Tohsaka family is doing quite well now, thanks to the help of the Mage's Association.
However, as a woman, Tohsaka Aoi would occasionally miss some things from the past... not Tohsaka Tokiomi, but Qin Chuan.
After all, Qin Chuan at that time was already far superior to ordinary people in terms of physique, which indeed gave Tohsaka Aoi an experience beyond imagination.
So much so that now, when Aoi Tohsaka occasionally dreams of meeting her lover in her sleep, it has nothing to do with Tokiomi Tohsaka anymore, but is entirely related to Qin Chuan.
Just as Aoi Tohsaka was pondering whether or not to prepare something to help Rin Tohsaka with her summons, she suddenly heard someone knocking on the window.
Tohsaka Aoi was first taken aback, then shocked—her bedroom was on the second floor, so why was someone knocking on the second-floor window?
However, when she looked out the window, she saw a very unexpected visitor.
"Mrs. Tohsaka, it's been a long time."
Qin Chuan opened the window, flipped himself in, and smiled as he looked at Tohsaka Aoi, whose expression was a mix of confusion and surprise.
Seeing Tohsaka Aoi's reaction, Qin Chuan already knew what she was thinking.
Although she refers to him as Mrs. Tohsaka... Tohsaka Aoi probably doesn't even remember that Tohsaka Tokiomi exists anymore.
