It seems she needs to re-evaluate her relationship with Reines—this girl clearly also harbors some ulterior motives towards her Qin Chuan brother.
Reines turned and glanced at Matou Sakura, winking at her—though Matou Sakura didn't know, she and Qin Chuan had already taken that step that adults take.
Although she and Matou Sakura are friends, Reines has no intention of giving in to Matou Sakura when it comes to Qin Chuan.
What were you doing just now?
Qin Chuan, holding Reines, looked at Matou Sakura and asked with a smile.
Although he learned from Waver that Reines and Matou Sakura had gone to Kotomine Risei's place, he didn't know exactly what they had done.
However, it's hard to imagine they were discussing anything serious. Considering that Matou Sakura awakened her Stand, it's very likely that they used her Stand ability on Kotomine Risei.
"Is such that……"
Reines and Matou Sakura, of course, couldn't hide it from Qin Chuan. Upon hearing Qin Chuan's question, the two of them began to tell him what they had just done.
Perhaps wanting to be the first to explain to Qin Chuan, the two refused to give in, and their mere words made the hall quite noisy.
From the pained expression on Emiya's face in the corner of the living room, it's easy to see just how noisy their argument was.
……
"I see. So Matou Tsuruno even reported me to Kotomine Risei."
Although it was quite difficult, Qin Chuan still managed to get a general idea of what had happened from Reines and Matou Sakura.
His lips twitched. He never expected to encounter something like this. Both Kotomine Risei and Matou Tsuruno were characters who had almost no role in the original work.
It's unexpected that these two characters could be paired together—although it was Matou Tsuruno who went to Kotomine Risei on his own, he was clearly just asking for trouble.
Indeed, when Qin Chuan led Shido to break into the Matou family last time and kidnapped Matou Shinji, he made no attempt to conceal his presence. Therefore, it's quite normal for Matou Tsuruno to see him and Shido.
Matou Tsuruno was probably worried about his son, Matou Shinji, but he didn't have the ability to take Shinji back, so he could only report him to Kotomine Risei.
"Tsk, your father is quite worried about you, but unfortunately you didn't have many days left to live."
Thinking of this, Qin Chuan walked to Matou Shinji in the corner, squatted down, looked at Matou Shinji who was almost unrecognizable, and said to him with some pity.
Shinji Matou's body was in a state of decay, and the surface of his skin and bones still showed signs of Crest Worms wriggling.
Qin Chuan wasn't deliberately torturing him; he had simply tied Matou Shinji up here. Waver had been bringing food to Matou Shinji every day to ensure his nutritional needs were met.
His miserable state was entirely of his own making; the Crest Worms inside his body had been gnawing at Shinji Matou's body.
It's important to know that Shinji Matou's magical talent is not even as good as Kariya Matou's ten years ago, so the Crest Worms devouring Shinji Matou's body is more brutal, and the side effects are greater than those of Kariya Matou.
Even if Matou Tsuruno rescues Matou Shinji, he will only be able to watch helplessly as Matou Shinji dies in front of him a few days later.
"However, while I can understand that guy's thinking, it's a fact that he caused me trouble."
Qin 373 Chuan squinted at Matou Shinji and said calmly.
"Since you're about to die anyway, let Matou Tsuruno die with you. At least you'll have company on the road to the underworld."
Qin Chuan's voice must have reached Matou Shinji's ears, but Matou Shinji did not react at all.
It's unclear whether she didn't notice Qin Chuan's words or heard them but was too lazy to resist.
Shinji Matou isn't the type to unleash his full potential for his father; even when he heard that Qin Chuan wanted to kill Tsuruno Matou, he remained unmoved.
"never mind."
Seeing that Matou Shinji seemed to have no reaction, Qin Chuan shook his head as well—this guy was completely useless.
Moreover, he ruined himself. Qin Chuan didn't do anything to him, he just brought him here to restrict his movements, and he's about to die.
He turned to look at Matou Sakura—more curious about Matou Sakura's Stand ability than Matou Shinji:
"Sakura, your Stand is called 'Free as a Bird'?"
Qin Chuan has helped many people awaken their Stand abilities, but Matou Sakura was the first to name her Stand immediately after awakening it.
Although the Stand users in the past generally gave their Stands names later on, they didn't do it right away; they decided on the names only after they had calmed down.
Chapter 583 The Evolution of the "King's Army"
Qin Chuan originally intended to deal with Matou Tsuruno himself, but was stopped by Reines and Matou Sakura in the end.
They said that Matou Tsuruno was just an ordinary person without any magical talent, and that they could handle it.
Indeed, Matou Tsuruno is not much of a threat, not to mention Matou Sakura who has already awakened her Stand, or Reines who has multiple layers of protection from Qin Chuan.
Even if Reines had just arrived in Fuyuki City and hadn't yet received the maid outfit substitute from Qin Chuan, or had "Blackbird Requiem: Black Sabbath" as her backup, she could still take down Matou Tsuruno.
After all, the Matou family's magical talent had almost died out with Matou Tsuruno. Matou Tsuruno probably doesn't even know a decent magic trick. Reines' Moon Spirit Essence Liquid could easily kill him.
However, Qin Chuan, seeing the expressions on Reines' and Matou Sakura's faces, figured that the two of them volunteered to deal with Matou Tsuruno because they probably harbored a desire for revenge.
They probably felt that Matou Tsuruno dared to provoke Qin Chuan, so they wanted to teach him a lesson—ultimately, they wanted to show their worth in front of Qin Chuan.
So in the end, Qin Chuan didn't refuse and let the two of them deal with Matou Tsuruno—it's easy to imagine that Matou Tsuruno's fate wouldn't be good.
"Two magicians bullying an ordinary person with no magical talent—they really have no mercy."
Watching Reines and Matou Sakura leave, Waver, sitting in a chair in the corner of the living room, couldn't help but mutter a complaint.
In fact, he had seen the conversation between Reines, Matou Sakura and Qin Chuan earlier, but he didn't dare to interrupt about the relationship between the three of them.
If things go wrong, Reines might get angry at him again—don't let his title of El-Melloi II fool you, he's really just a worker for Reines.
He couldn't help but complain after Reines and Matou Sakura left, but he clearly didn't show any concern for their safety.
After all, as they just said, it would be too embarrassing if dealing with Matou Tsuruno would trigger Qin Chuan's "Black Bird Requiem: Black Rest~".
"With the 'guards' I arranged for Reines, there's no need to worry about them getting into trouble."
Qin Chuan said with a smile, and walked to the front of the Heroic Spirit Emiya in the corner of the hall, looking at the Heroic Spirit Emiya whose head was still thawed.
"However, it's time to finish you off—do you have any last words, Emiya?"
"So this day has finally come... But I was mentally prepared for it all along. In other words, it's a relief to end it sooner."
Seeing Qin Chuan walk up to him, the Heroic Spirit Emiya understood what was about to happen and let out a long sigh.
His body had been frozen here for more than two days. Although as a heroic spirit, he only needed magic power and did not need to eat, this feeling was still not pleasant.
Now that Qin Chuan has killed him, the torment of the past few days is finally over, and he no longer has to be sealed in ice.
As for Qin Chuan asking if he had any last words… Heroic Spirit Emiya thought for a moment, then looked at Qin Chuan seriously and asked the question he had been wondering about:
"Then, can you tell me who you really are? Or tell me why you know so much about me?"
There were no last words, of course. When the Heroic Spirit Emiya died, he simply returned to the Hall of Heroes and awaited the next mission from the Counter Force. He was naturally not afraid of death.
His only curiosity was about Qin Chuan's background and why he seemed to know everything.
"Is this your last words? I'm not going to answer your question."
Qin Chuan couldn't help but chuckle when he saw that the Heroic Spirit Emiya's last words were actually asking him a question—but he had no interest in explaining his existence to the Heroic Spirit Emiya.
If the Heroic Spirit Emiya were a beautiful girl, it would be fine, but as a rough man, Qin Chuan really had no interest in talking to him much.
Qin Chuan didn't have any ill feelings towards him, purely because this guy was indeed a kind-hearted person in the original work. He didn't dislike this kind of personality, but that didn't mean he would become like that.
"Okay, it seems you're not going to answer me after all."
Although he didn't get the answer he wanted, it was within Emiya's expectations.
He gave a bitter laugh, closed his eyes, and left with one last sentence.
"My last hope is that you'll be quick and decisive... just don't make me feel too much pain."
"Don't worry, considering you provided information about Assassin before, I won't make your journey too painful."
Qin Chuan smiled faintly and spoke calmly. The "Blackbird Requiem" appeared behind him instantly, and then his entire figure transformed into a huge shadow, enveloping the Heroic Spirit Emiya.
In Qin Chuan's vision, the enormous black shadow was like a giant maw, which devoured the body of the Heroic Spirit Emiya in the blink of an eye and merged into the body of "Blackbird Requiem".
To those without a Stand, Emiya's body seemed to vanish completely in an instant, like lines erased from a canvas with an eraser, turning into nothingness.
At least that's how Weber saw it.
"Is this the 'Stand' ability that Reines was talking about?"
Waver watched as the Heroic Spirit Emiya's body vanished instantly, and muttered to himself—he too was curious about the existence of "Stands." (②玖龄物删爸奇yisan. ⒉)
However, Qin Chuan had no time to concern himself with Webber's curiosity. He closed his eyes slightly, carefully sensing the changing light of the "Blackbird Requiem" ability.
The other abilities remained largely unchanged, but the "King's Army Force," which served as a unique barrier, underwent a significant transformation.
Presumably because it absorbed the Heroic Spirit Emiya, "Unlimited Blade Works," also a Reality Marble, was also obtained by "Blackbird Requiem," but this power did not exist independently.
It was integrated into the "King's Army," causing a significant change in its power. (Mio)
"The King's Army... no, perhaps this ability should have been renamed long ago." (Leek)
Qin Chuan slowly opened his eyes and let out a long sigh—in fact, he still couldn't determine what changes had occurred in the "King's Army's strength."
The only thing that could be sensed was that the range of the "King's Army" seemed to have changed. It seemed that those brought to other worlds through the "King's Army" could now travel to areas outside its designated range.
For example, Garou from the Dragon Ball world can now travel to areas beyond Planet Saiyan.
Of course, Qin Chuan's consent is still required—if Qin Chuan does not allow it, then the other party will still be confined to the sphere of influence of the "King's Army."
Chapter 584 The Little Holy Grail is a bit picky about food.
After sensing a change in his "King's Army Momentum," Qin Chuan opened his eyes.
Although I'm very curious about what exactly happened to "King's Army" after it absorbed Emiya's "Unlimited Blade Works," it's not convenient to test it right now.
He planned to wait until he left the world of Fate/Stay Night before going to Planet Saiyan in the Dragon Ball world to test the new features.
He could clearly sense that the changes in "Wang's Army" were not simply a matter of expanding its scope; there were new capabilities that needed to be tested to understand.
As for why we went to the Dragon Ball world to test instead of directly to Einzbern Castle... it's mainly because there's a guinea pig in the Dragon Ball world to use.
That's right, the new feature can be tested on Garou—in any case, judging from Garou's attitude towards him, he shouldn't mind becoming Qin Chuan's research subject.
Qin Chuan even felt that Garou's current view of him was the same as Genos's view of Saitama in "One-Punch Man"—both regarded them as incredibly powerful role models.
Of course, Saitama developed some feelings for Genos in the original work, but Qin Chuan's feelings for Garou remained unchanged—mainly because Garou was the target of mission 373 in One-Punch Man.
The Boros mission is already impossible to complete, and if Qin Chuan were to give up on the Garou mission as well, then he would have returned empty-handed from the One-Punch Man world, which he was naturally unwilling to do.
Shaking his head, Qin Chuan temporarily put aside his thoughts on "King's Army" and the Hungry Wolf, and turned to look at Webber, who was smoking a cigar behind him.
Weber was taken aback, wondering why Qin Chuan was suddenly looking at him—but soon he saw Qin Chuan reaching out his hand, as if asking for something:
"Webber, give me a cigar."
Upon hearing Qin Chuan's words, Weber almost instinctively reached into his pocket, pulled out a box of cigars, opened it, and took out a brand-new cigar, placing it in Qin Chuan's hand.
Out of respect for Qin Chuan, Weber chose the best cigar in the box—not only was the cigar itself of extremely high quality, but the tobacco inside was also a special product to enhance magic.
"...Who told you to give me this cigar?"
Watching Webber's actions, Qin Chuan tossed the cigar back into Webber's hand with a hint of annoyance—he didn't smoke and had no interest in cigars.
"I'm asking you to give me the vessel for the Lesser Grail."
"Oh... I'm sorry, I misunderstood."
Weber then realized what was happening, gave an awkward laugh, and picked up the gold cigar on the table, handing it to Qin Chuan.
Perhaps because he had just absorbed the soul of the Heroic Spirit Emiya, Waver felt that the golden cigar seemed a little heavier when he picked it up.
Weber had heard that ancient alchemists had studied the weight of the soul... He wondered if the slight increase in weight of this cigar counted as the weight of the soul.
Seeing Qin Chuan casually toying with the golden cigar in his hand, Weber thought for a moment and then offered a reminder:
"Mr. Qin Chuan, please be careful not to break this cigar—after all, if it breaks, the spirits of the heroes stored inside will dissipate, and the Holy Grail ritual will likely fail."
"Don't worry, I'm not taking this thing to break it... On the contrary, I'm going to help it grow quickly."
Seeing this, Qin Chuan smiled casually, and then, under Weber's gaze, began to fill the golden cigar with the planetary energy from his body.
The energy of these planets all comes from uninhabited planets in the Dragon Ball world—but uninhabited doesn't mean there's no life. The plants and lower life forms on those planets also provide energy of decent quality.
However, Qin Chuan tried it and frowned slightly—he could feel that the golden cigar did indeed contain planetary energy, but the cigar showed "resistance" to the planetary energy he had injected.
It seemed unwilling to absorb the planetary energy injected by Qin Chuan.
After a moment's thought, Qin Chuan understood—this golden cigar was the "Mini Grail," something built upon the system of the "Holy Grail War."
In other words, he will only absorb the souls of "Heroic Spirits" from the "Holy Grail War." What are Heroic Spirits? They are the boundary records of this planet, closely related to the Counter Force.
Therefore, it's not that this golden cigar is unwilling to absorb planetary energy, but rather that it is unwilling to absorb planetary energy from outside Earth.
