Although the Matou family is currently in decline, it's still necessary to investigate. (Scar)
For example, right now, in a corner unknown to Qin Chuan and Reines, Matou Shinji is giving himself a brutal beating.
Although Shinji Matou didn't know that his "efforts" might not change the outcome, his methods were certainly ruthless. 7.
Chapter 475 Qin Chuan's Interest? (Leave)
After providing Reines with triple protection, Qin Chuan prepared to leave this world.
There is still some time before the Holy Grail War officially begins, and the participants are preparing materials and gathering intelligence during this time.
Qin Chuan had also wanted to end the Holy Grail War as soon as possible, but now that the plot had changed, he really didn't know who the participants would be this time.
Moreover, some participants haven't even summoned their Heroic Spirits yet, so they can't end the Holy Grail War early even if they want to.
"Speaking of which, shouldn't there also be supervisors sent by the Holy Grail Church in this Holy Grail War?"
Before leaving, Qin Chuan asked Reines one more question—about the supervisor of this Holy Grail War.
The Holy Church will send overseers to monitor the rules of the Holy Grail War. If the Holy Grail War becomes too influential, the Holy Church will also be responsible for handling the aftermath and suppressing public opinion.
In the original storyline, the supervisor of the Fifth Holy Grail War was Kirei Kotomine—but now Kirei Kotomine has been killed by him.
Even Gilgamesh, who should have remained in the mortal world after being corrupted by the black mud, was swallowed up by Qin Chuan.
"It is the supervisor of the Fourth Holy Grail War, Risei Kotomine."
As a participant, Reines naturally knew who the supervisor was this time—she had already met with him at the church before summoning Qin Chuan.
"Because he did not make any mistakes in supervising the last Holy Grail War, he will continue to serve as the supervisor this time."
"That guy is still alive?"
Qin Chuan was somewhat surprised—Kotomine Risei was already an old man ten years ago, but he didn't expect that he would still have the energy to continue serving as a supervisor ten years later.
In the original storyline, Kotomine Ryougi was supposed to be killed by Kenneth in the Fourth Holy Grail War, but due to Qin Chuan's intervention, Kotomine Ryougi is still alive.
"Although Father Kotomine is indeed getting on in years... he seems to have practiced martial arts, so he is still in good health and more than capable of serving as the supervisor."
Although Reines didn't know why Qin Chuan looked so surprised, she still spoke up.
"He seems a little melancholic whenever the Holy Grail War is mentioned, perhaps because his son died in the last Holy Grail War."
In the end, Kotomine Risei was just an old priest... Although he had secretly colluded with Tohsaka Tokiomi before, he wasn't exactly a law-abiding person.
He should be thankful that he never found out Kirei Kotomine's true colors in the end.
His son was the kind of guy who would find pleasure in the death of a human being, even when faced with the death of his own father.
……
After learning that the supervisor was still Kotomine Risei and not someone noteworthy, Qin Chuan left.
Because Reines had previously believed that Qin Chuan's "limited time for action" was a limitation imposed by the Holy Grail, she was not surprised when Qin Chuan disappeared.
Anyway, the Avalon and maid outfit substitute that Qin Chuan left her were still on her, which made her feel very safe.
Even if she were truly unlucky and encountered a Heroic Spirit, Reines felt she should be able to escape from their clutches.
"Alright, Trimmau, while Mr. Qin Chuan is away, go out and do some more reconnaissance!"
Looking in the direction Qin Chuan left, Reines also stood up from the sofa, and then a serious expression appeared on her face.
Although she could rely on Qin Chuan, Reines wasn't the type to sit back and reap the benefits; she felt she should still demonstrate the abilities expected of a Master.
For example, intelligence gathering and reconnaissance—Qin Chuan has already investigated the situation of the Tohsaka family and the Einzbern family, how can he leave empty-handed?
Otherwise, it would be impossible to tell whether Qin Chuan or oneself is the master.
Thinking of this, Reines couldn't help but look down at her maid outfit again, her expression somewhat strange:
"But why does Mr. Qin Chuan have a Noble Phantasm that looks like a maid outfit...?"
Because Qin Chuan was too lazy to explain the existence of a "stand-in" in detail, he simply used the term "treasure" to get Reines to accept the maid outfit stand-in.
However, this also made Reines's imagination run wild.
Judging from Qin Chuan's behavior, it's clear that Qin Chuan would never wear this maid outfit herself.
So, was this maid outfit something Qin Chuan gave to another woman? Perhaps it's because Qin Chuan has a special fondness for maids that he possesses such a "treasure"?
Reines was unaware that Qin Chuan could acquire the abilities of others through "devouring," so she naturally created a setting for Qin Chuan based on the definition of a "treasure."
"Mr. Qin Chuan likes maid outfits..."
Soon, Reines accepted the scenario she had conjured up in her mind, then walked to the mirror, looked at her maid outfit, and seemed to be deep in thought.
"As Mr. Qin Chuan's master, it is also important to build a good relationship with him... perhaps we can cater to his preferences."
The relationship between the Master and the Servant is also very important. For example, the Einzbern family allowed Illya to summon the Servant two months in advance so that she could get used to getting along with the Servant beforehand.
Although the Einzbern family ultimately messed things up, the underlying idea is sound.
So Reines was also wondering if she should take this opportunity to improve her relationship with Qin Chuan—just like improving the affinity of a Heroic Spirit in a mobile game.
……
Shortly after Qin Chuan left the mission world, a taxi drove into Fuyuki City.
Soon, a girl got out of the taxi—it was Matou Sakura, who had rushed back from the Magic Association.
Ten years have passed, and Matou Sakura, like Tohsaka Rin, has grown from a little girl into a tall young woman.
Unlike Rin Tohsaka's somewhat arrogant demeanor, Sakura Matou appears more gentle, yet within that gentleness lies a hint of seriousness and sharpness.
After all, the educational environment that Matou Sakura received was completely different from that in the original work.
Although her gentle nature remains, she has never been abused in the Matou family, so she is not timid or hesitant in her actions.
She stood on the side of the street, pressing her hand to her chest—inside her clothes, she kept the black feather that Qin Chuan had given her close to her body.
“Very good… This time we must summon Brother Qin Chuan!”
Sakura Matou wore a satisfied smile—she had been waiting for the next Holy Grail War for a long time, and it had finally arrived.
She was unaware that Reines had already summoned Qin Chuan first, so she was still full of hope.
Dragging her suitcase, Matou Sakura walked towards the Hyatt Hotel.
She had no intention of returning to the Matou family. After all, although she had been adopted into the Matou family, she had no fondness for that place whatsoever.
Furthermore, Matou Tsuruno and Matou Shinji are currently living in the Matou household, and Matou Sakura does not want to see any other members of the Matou family.
So she chose to stay at the Hyatt Hotel—just like Qin Chuan had arranged for himself ten years ago.
Chapter 476 The Hero Association is in Hand
After leaving the world of Fate/Stay Night, Qin Chuan did not immediately return to the real world.
After all, we didn't spend much time in Fuyuki City, so it's probably still a while before dawn in the real world.
After leaving the world of Fate/Stay Night, he re-entered the world of One-Punch Man.
After all, before Qin Chuan left, he had planted the image of "Blackbird Lover" in the minds of the Hero Association's higher-ups.
The Hero Association's higher-ups seemed to still hold onto a sliver of hope, preparing to ask Child Emperor for help in removing the things from those brains—and now there should be a result.
……
"Still nothing has been detected?"
In the Heroes' Guild's high-level office, only two people were sitting—Sickey and Child Emperor.
As one of the few people in the Hero Association's upper echelons who gets things done, Sitch is trusted not only by the heroes but also by the upper echelons who are happy to entrust him with important tasks.
In matters of life and death, those incompetent higher-ups knew very well that if they had to choose someone to discuss things, the best candidate would be Sitch.
Sitting opposite Sitch was Child Emperor fiddling with his laptop and operating a pair of automated instruments beside him.
The instruments looked like they were modified medical devices, and they were constantly scanning Sitch's head, with the analysis results popping up on the computer screen.
"...No, we really can't find anything abnormal. There are no foreign objects in your brains or any abnormalities in your bodies."
Finally, Child Emperor closed his laptop, shook his head, and looked at Sitch with a helpless expression.
He had tried his best, but he couldn't find anything wrong with Sitch's body—if he had to say, it was probably that Sitch had high blood sugar.
But Sitch's high blood sugar obviously couldn't have affected the brains of the entire Hero Association's top brass; there must be something else stimulating their brains.
"Haven't given up yet?"
Just then, the conference room door opened—the lock on the heavy door was destroyed by superpowers, and Tatsumaki's petite figure walked in.
She looked at Sitch and Child Emperor in the conference room and said somewhat speechlessly:
"As long as you listen to Qin Chuan, there won't be any problems with your heads. Why do you have to resist?"
"Tornado!"
Upon seeing Tornado enter the conference room, a hint of anger flashed across Sitch's face.
Although he is different from other high-ranking officials and has always respected all the heroes, what Tornado did this time was still a bit too much.
"How could we possibly entrust the Hero Association to someone of unknown origin!?"
"That only shows that you don't have a clear understanding of Qin Chuan's strength yet."
Tornado sighed – after all, the higher-ups of the Hero Association had never actually seen how strong Qin Chuan was in combat.
If they saw how strong Qin Chuan was, they would realize that Qin Chuan actually looked down on the Hero Association's fighting power.
If Qin Chuan truly harbors ill intentions towards the Hero Association, he could probably eliminate all the heroes of the Hero Association within just a few minutes.
Just look at what happened to Psykos and Homeless Emperor from the Monster Association; those two were directly and violently subdued by Qin Chuan's strength.
Of course, there seems to be an even more special reason for Homeless Emperor's situation—but that's something Tornado wouldn't know.
"Even you are no match for him, Tornado?"
Upon hearing this, Sic's expression also turned serious.
He was well aware of Tornado's power; if she unleashed her full strength, her superpowers could even uproot an entire city.
"I'm no match for him. Even if I attacked him with all my might, he wouldn't even flinch."
Tornado spread her hands in a gesture of helplessness, then raised an eyebrow and spoke to Sitch.
“Sich, you need to understand, Qin Chuan has no interest in interfering with the Hero Association's operations, and may even be able to act as a backer for the Hero Association to some extent… I suggest you make the right choice.” (Qi)
Upon hearing Tornado's reply, Sitch clenched his fist, his expression complex, even contemplating whether to seek help from Blast.
Blast, the number one S-class hero, is usually elusive, but Sitch actually has a way of contacting him.
But even if they get in touch, what then? Blast is undoubtedly very strong, but that won't solve the problems plaguing the Hero Association's higher-ups.
Blast has a long list of exploits, including destroying a superpower research organization and defeating Elder Centipede, etc... but Sitch has never heard of Blast performing brain surgery.
In fact, even if the Hero Association's higher-ups could do it, they wouldn't agree to let anyone else operate their equipment.
"I understand... I'll go tell the others the final result." Qi
After a long silence, Sitch finally made his final decision, his expression contorted with struggle.
It seems he's preparing to give up—next, he'll go tell the other high-ranking members of the Hero Association this fact, so they can also prepare themselves mentally.
Child Emperor watched as Sitch left the meeting room, then looked at Tornado with a somewhat serious expression: "Yo..."
"Tornado, just who is this Mr. Qin Chuan? What is his purpose in controlling the Hero Association?"
Although judging from what Tornado just said, it seems that Qin Chuan's control of the Hero Association will not change the current situation of the Hero Association, Child Emperor is still a little skeptical.
Therefore, he also hoped to learn some more accurate reasons from the tornado.
"To be precise, I just wanted the Hero Association to help me find someone."
However, it wasn't Tatsumaki who answered Child Emperor, but a deep male voice that came from behind him.
Tong Di was startled and quickly turned to look behind him, only to find that Qin Yilin, Qi Siwu, Jiu Bachuan had appeared behind him at some point.
He carries a lot of technological equipment that can constantly monitor the surrounding situation—even when the tornado approached the conference room, his equipment emitted an alert signal.
However, Qin Chuan's appearance caused all of his equipment to malfunction, rendering it completely useless.
The Assassin's aura concealment effect could even hide Child Emperor's technology.
"Qin Chuan!"
Tornado let out a startled cry, then quickly flew to Qin Chuan's side, just like a cat seeing its owner return home.
