Therefore, Reines speculated that this guy who was frozen into an ice sculpture but not sent directly back to Valhalla might have had a similar situation to Mordred.

"No, that's not it. I'm definitely going to get rid of this guy."

Qin Chuan shook his head and smiled as he spoke to Reines.

"There's a rather special reason why we haven't taken action yet—you should know where the souls of the Heroic Spirits go after they die in the Holy Grail War, right?"

"Where do Heroic Spirits go after they die...aren't they collected by the Lesser Grail? When enough Heroic Spirits have died, the Lesser Grail will become the vessel to open the Greater Grail."

As a member of the Mage's Association, Reines had done her research and gathered relevant information before participating in the Holy Grail War.

Especially with Waver, a survivor of the last Holy Grail War, providing supplementary information, Reines gained a deeper understanding of the details of the Holy Grail War in Fuyuki City.

"I remember the Minor Grail in the Holy Grail War was handled by the Einzbern family, right? It seems they used their family's homunculus as the Minor Grail... Wait a minute!"

At this point, Reines seemed to realize something—she looked at Shidone standing next to Qin Chuan, whose white hair and red eyes were clearly characteristic of the Einzbern family's homunculus.

She had been wondering why Qin Chuan would bring a little girl back, but it turns out this little girl has quite a background.

"Just as you guessed... she is the 'Little Holy Grail' that the Einzbern family prepared this time."

Qin Chuan squatted down, stroking Shidone's head as he spoke to Reines.

"However, there is a rather special reason between us... so I need to take her out of this world, and she can no longer be used as the Lesser Grail in this Holy Grail War."

"It really is the Lesser Grail... Wait! She's clearly a Heroic Spirit, isn't she!?"

Reines felt overwhelmed by the amount of information and rubbed her temples, trying to calm her overloaded brain.

The Masters of the Holy Grail War can see the Servant's ability parameters to a certain extent. Reines just saw Shitonai's ability parameters, so it can be confirmed that Shitonai is a Heroic Spirit.

The Einzbern family's homunculus has become a living Heroic Spirit...? What a lame joke! Did the Mage's Association even know the Einzbern family had this ability?

"And what do you mean by taking her out of this world...? If she's not here, then the Holy Grail War will fail without the Lesser Grail, won't the ritual fail?"

"That's why I haven't killed Archer yet; I'm saving him until I've prepared the new 'Minor Grail' before dealing with him."

Qin Chuan smiled and pointed to the ice sculpture of the Heroic Spirit Emiya next to him, explaining why he hadn't dealt with him immediately.

Ultimately, if the Heroic Spirit Emiya were to be devoured now, his soul would enter Shidon's body, officially activating Shidon's "Lesser Grail" function.

Therefore, in order to prevent this from happening, we must first take Shido away, then create a new "Minor Grail" vessel in this world, and then devour the Heroic Spirit Emiya.

"Eh? Mr. Qin Chuan, have you prepared a new Lesser Grail?"

Upon hearing Qin Chuan's words, Reines paused for a moment, then seemed to breathe a sigh of relief—her purpose in participating in the Holy Grail War was, of course, to win, so she naturally did not want to see the ritual fail.

However, after she finished speaking, Reines noticed the ambiguous smile on Qin Chuan's face, and her heart began to pound with apprehension.

"What's wrong... Was there something wrong with what I just said?"

“There is indeed a problem. I did not prepare a new Lesser Grail... but I brought the method for making a new Lesser Grail.”

As he spoke, Qin Chuan waved his hand, and a large number of golden ripples appeared in the spacious living room.

The next moment, a large number of books and documents, as well as some strange magic instruments, fell from the ripples and crashed heavily onto the living room floor, causing the whole house to shake.

"These are the Einzbern family's magical materials, which include records of homunculus beings, Lesser Grail technology, and other information. They should be quite valuable, right?"

Seeing Reines's stunned expression, Qin Chuan smiled.

"I know nothing about magic, so I'll have to trouble you to conjure up a small Holy Grail based on this information."

"Let me make a miniature Holy Grail?"

Reines stared wide-eyed at Qin Chuan in disbelief, as if she had heard something incredible.

But judging from Qin Chuan's expression, Reines quickly realized that he wasn't joking, but serious.

There are no other Lesser Grails in Fuyuki City because Qin Chuan directly killed Zouken Matou during the last Holy Grail War, thus preventing Sakura Matou from being corrupted by the Insect Technique. Therefore, there is naturally no Machiavelli Grail there either.

"Ugh... really, Mr. Qin Chuan is really giving me trouble."

Reines scratched her head, looking quite helpless—but what could she do? Qin Chuan was the Heroic Spirit she had summoned, so there was nothing she could do about it.

"However, it would be too difficult for me to make the Lesser Grail by myself. I'll need to call some help from the Mage's Association."

As she spoke, Reines pointed her finger at Qin Chuan and said with a very serious expression: i

"But I've gone to such lengths, Mr. Qin Chuan, you absolutely must obtain the Holy Grail for me!"

Chapter 524 It turns out you have a bit of a tsundere personality.

In the Einzbern Forest, the Winter City of Germany, Qin Chuan returned with Sera and Lisserite.

Limbs were still scattered throughout Winter City, but because the forests of Winter City were perpetually covered in ice and snow, there was surprisingly little odor. ②

"But it's still better to clean it up, since this place might become my territory." (Umbrella)

Entering the hall, Qin Chuan looked at the devastation inside and shook his head helplessly—although he didn't feel anything for these Einzbern family members, leaving it like this wasn't a good solution.

Especially after today, this Winter City will likely belong to him, and he certainly doesn't want his possessions filled with other people's corpses, or even corpses without any remains intact. Dad

"Then I'll take care of it." (Bar)

Following behind Qin Chuan, Lizette bowed slightly—she, who hadn't said much before, finally took the initiative to take on the task.

She hadn't spoken to Qin Chuan before, partly because she wasn't a talkative person, and partly because Qin Chuan was still an enemy at the time.

However, now that everyone in Zhidu has accepted Qin Chuan and even calls him "Dad," then strictly speaking, Qin Chuan can be considered Liselit's master.

Working for her master was no problem—Liselette wasn't good at housework, but throwing away corpses was no problem for her.

There are actually some wild animals in the Einzbern Forest, and these corpses must have provided them with a lot of energy.

"Then I will go and repair the Einzbern family's barrier."

Sera nodded and went to another room.

Qin Chuan brought Sera here this time because Sera knew how to repair the Einzbern family's barrier and turn Winter City back into an isolated territory.

That's right, Qin Chuan wants to try to see if he can bring Einzbern's Winter City into the "King's Army".

Although Qin Chuan has his eye on the Magic Association and plans to take advantage of the time to incorporate the Magic Association's clock tower into the "King's Army," no one has stipulated that a world can only have one stronghold.

The Magic Association is also needed, as is the city of Winter Six Orders 2223, only then can it be considered complete.

The Einzbern family is now extinct; theoretically, only Shidone, Sera, and Lisserite can be considered members of the Einzbern family.

Zhidunai has undoubtedly accepted Qin Chuan, and Liselit seems to have placed herself in the position of Qin Chuan's maid. Only Sera seems a little awkward.

Once the three acknowledge it, the "King's Army" will surely be able to incorporate Winter City—thus establishing a passage into this world ahead of time.

In that case, even if I didn't find a chance to visit the Mage's Association by the end of the Holy Grail War, it wouldn't lead to me losing this world.

……

hum-

More than half an hour later, Qin Chuan noticed the commotion outside the castle.

Clearly, Sera has repaired the barrier of Einzbern, and a barrier that prevents people from entering the territory of Winter City has reappeared outside the city.

It has to be said that it was quite lucky that the corpses in Winter City were not discovered for several months after the barrier was destroyed.

Now, all the corpses in Winter City have been thrown into the forest by Lyselite. Although there are still some dried bloodstains on the ground, at least the visual impact is not so great.

We can clean this place up again when we have some free time after Sera.

Speak of the devil, and he appears. Just as Qin Chuan was thinking about this, he saw Sera walk out of the room next door.

Seeing that Qin Chuan seemed to be staring at her, Sera blushed slightly and glared at him with a hint of annoyance:

"What are you doing? I only came to help you because of Ilya, I have not recognized you as our master."

That being said, Sera got to work faster than anyone else, which made Qin Chuan wonder if Sera had truly accepted him as her master.

However, it's very simple to verify.

Qin Chuan raised his head and began to try to bring Winter City into the "King's Army" – the scope of which includes Winter City and the surrounding Einzbern Forest.

Although there are some wild animals in the forest, those animals are obviously not considered members of the Einzbern family, but merely byproducts of this territory.

This saved Qin Chuan from having to negotiate with those wild animals or slaughter them all—although it's a bit late to say this, Qin Chuan still considers himself to be a great animal lover.

The next moment, Qin Chuan felt as if Winter City had entered another dimension... Without a doubt, the "King's Army" had successfully swallowed Winter City.

Sensing this, Qin Chuan turned to look at Sera, who was picking up cleaning tools and starting to clean up the bloodstains.

Although this maid is sharp-tongued, she has actually already accepted Qin Chuan as her master—so she has a proud and aloof side after all?

……

With Winter City incorporated into the "King's Army," Qin Chuan's objective for this trip can be considered achieved.

Although this winter city will most likely never be used in the future, it will simply serve as a transit point in the world of Fate/Stay Night.

After Sera cleaned up some of the more obvious bloodstains, Qin Chuan and his two maids used teleportation to return to Fuyuki City.

"You're back!"

When Shido, who was sitting on the living room sofa, saw Qin Chuan appear in front of her with Sera and Lizzie, her eyes lit up and she quickly stood up to greet him.

Some luggage had already been placed beside her—those were all packed by Sera, and were some of Shidone's... or rather, some of Ilya's clothes from the past.

At first glance, it does look a bit like someone going on a long trip.

"Is everything prepared? Is this all you're bringing?"

Qin Chuan looked at the suitcase next to Zhi Du and said with a smile.

"There might not be another chance to come back?"

Of course, this was just a casual remark. If Qin Chuan wanted, he could bring Zhi Du back to this world at any time—after all, Winter City had become part of the "King's Army".

However, Shido shook his head and said very seriously:

"I won't be coming back."

Although Qin Chuan had already told Shidone that once they arrived in that world, they might only be able to move around within the confines of one house for a short period of time and wouldn't be able to go too far.

But for Shidone, with Irisviel around, it wouldn't matter if his range of activities was a little smaller—it was pretty much the same as his life in Winter Castle before.

Moreover, Qin Chuan also said it was only for a "short period of time," which means that there is still a possibility of going to more distant places in the future.

As for this world... for Shido, there is nothing left to cherish.

After all, Sera and Liselit will also go there, and all traces of the Einzbern family in this world will truly disappear completely.

Chapter 525 Thor, who always felt a sense of crisis

As Qin Chuan used "King's Military Might" to envelop Zhi Du Nei and the two maids, the next moment, their figures disappeared from the original house.

Immediately afterwards, the figures of the group appeared in Qin Chuan's mansion in the real world.

Sensing that the surrounding environment had shifted from indoors to outdoors, Shido opened her eyes almost immediately.

She looked around with some surprise, and after realizing that the courtyard they were in was indeed not the original residence, she looked at Qin Chuan and asked:

"Is this our new home?"

This statement was quite ambiguous, but Qin Chuan didn't care and simply nodded.

"Yes, this is no longer the world you were in before... There are no magicians or anything like that in this world, so you'd better hold back your power a little."

Shido nodded eagerly, then asked the question that mattered most to her:

"Um...where is Mommy now?"

For Shido, the person she most wanted to see was probably Irisviel—the only family member she cared about in her original world.

She had thought she would never see Irisviel again, but now that Qin Chuan had promised and confirmed that Irisviel was in this world, she naturally didn't want to wait a moment longer.

"She's still sleeping. It's only 4 a.m., and given her usual routine... you'll probably have to wait another 4 hours before she gets up."

Qin Chuan smiled and said to Zhi Du, while also taking out his phone to check the time.

Of the women sleeping in Qin Chuan's bed, Irisviel is always the last to get up, so Zhi Du Nei will probably have to wait a while.

"Can I sneak a peek at her? I promise I won't bother her."

However, Shido was clearly impatient and didn't seem to want to wait even four hours, so he pleaded with Qin Chuan.

After all, Shido is a Heroic Spirit, and she is quite confident in her control over her body. She can indeed sneak into a room without disturbing others.

"Well... I wouldn't really recommend you do that."

A hint of embarrassment crept onto Qin Chuan's face—the situation in his room was probably not suitable for Zhi Du to see.
