() According to occultism, outside this world, there is the apex of dimensional theory - "force". It is defined as the coordinate origin of the origin of all things, and the "vortex of origin" where the long-cherished wishes of all magicians reside...

It is both the origin and the end of all things. It records everything that happens in the world and is the seat of God who created all things in the world.

200 years ago, someone once tried to reach this "outside the world". Einzbern, Machiri (now the Matou family), and Tohsaka, known as the three founding families, what they aspired to,

It is to reproduce the "Holy Grail" mentioned in countless legends. In order to summon the one who can realize

The Holy Grail that realizes all wishes, magicians from the three families exchanged their secret skills, and finally made this Holy Grail, which can be called the "Cauldron of Omnipotence", appear. However, this Holy Grail can only realize one person's wish. When this fact appears

In an instant, the cooperative relationship immediately turned into a bloody battle.

This is the beginning of the "Holy Grail War".

After that, every 60 years, the Holy Grail will reappear in the far eastern land "Fuyuki" where it was once summoned. Then the Holy Grail will select seven magicians who are qualified to possess it, and distribute part of its huge magic power to the seven people.

Allowing them to summon heroic spirits called "servants" to determine who is truly qualified to hold the Holy Grail through a death battle.

This is the official introduction to the Holy Grail War.

Of course, in Maya's view, there were a lot of loopholes in the Holy Grail War in Fuyuki City. It was probably because the three founding families at the time each had their own backdoors, which caused the entire Holy Grail War to be full of surprises. The first was Einzbern.

Jia summoned the eighth-level AV for the third time

enger, then the Matou family can make the Book of False Servants, and the Tohsaka family simply colludes with the church’s supervisors, and even Director Ken can find a way to supply the servant’s magic power to his fiancée. It can be said that there is no cheating.

War participants are not good exhibitors.

There is also the issue of popularity. If the higher the popularity of the Heroic Spirit, the strength of the Servant will be improved, then as the Gosan Family has focused on the Holy Grail War for two hundred years, they have never thought of increasing the Heroic Spirit’s popularity through media, movies, comics, etc.

Notability?

When I came to Fuyuki City, I had already bought a house last time. It is on the west side of the Dongmu River that runs through Fuyuki City. It is a three-story villa-type building, not far from the river, and not far along the river is Fuyuki.

The iconic Dongmu Bridge in the city.

The house is very clean, and the family must have arranged for someone to come over to manage it. The two of them sat in the living room to discuss the Holy Grail War.

"If we follow the plot, most of the contestants should be summoned tomorrow, so we will choose tomorrow too," said Zhenyu.

"Okay." Patchouli, who was reading on the sofa, replied, "By the way, have you chosen your holy relic? Are you not going to summon it immediately?"

"Get ready, there are two of them, one is said to be a leftover decoration from the Domus Aurea Theater, and this one." Maya took out a short knife.

"This short knife?" Patchouli took the knife and felt it, "There doesn't seem to be anything special about it."

"Well, there's really nothing special about it. Even the Analytical Demonic Eye only analyzes general sword skills from above. But it gives me a somewhat special feeling."

"Since it feels special, just keep it." Patchouli also knew that mysterious users like them sometimes felt very special, especially when Zhen Yu had a sense of intuition.

"So the other one is the decoration of Domus Aurea Theater? Are you going to summon that tyrant?" Patchouli thought for a while and asked.

"Well, I roughly know her abilities. With two EX skills, she is very powerful. She should be the strongest Saber."

"Wait, her?" Patchouli said in surprise.

"Yes, I didn't expect that the Roman tyrant of this world was a woman." Zhen Yu said with a smile.

"Female? I really didn't expect it."

"Actually, it's nothing. King Arthur is also a woman, and they both have the same face. This is the magical world of Xingyue."

"Well, it's indeed amazing, Mq~" Patchouli sighed, "By the way, what's the character of that tyrant?"

"Well, as far as I know, he's pretty easy to get along with, except for being a little narcissistic." Zhenyu thought for a while and replied.

On the other side of the Dongmu River, the Tohsaka family mansion stands in the remote mountain town of Fuyuki City.

Toki Tosaka and his disciple Kirei Kotomine are receiving reports from spies who have infiltrated the UK - the latest report from the "Clock Tower": "Prodigy" Kayneth Elumeroy Archibald seems to have obtained

New holy relic.

"In this case, his participation is confirmed. This is a troublesome opponent..." Tokitatsu Tosaka said to Kotomine Kirei beside him.

"After all, I am participating on behalf of the Magic Association, so my ability is definitely not too bad." Kotomine Kirei replied.

"No, if Rod Elumeroy is a troublesome opponent, then the two Asakami siblings are troublesome opponents." Tokitatsu Tosaka frowned.

This is the first time Kotomine Kirei has seen his master like this. In his impression, Tokitatsu Tosaka has always been optimistic, and his face is always filled with innate confidence. He rarely, no, to be precise,

Kotomine Kirei had never seen his master look distressed.

"'Quiet Purple' Asakami Akira and Asakami Maha?" Kotomine Kirei said.

"Well, I met Asagami Maya by chance three years ago. At that time, he clearly wanted to participate in the Holy Grail War. He should have obtained the Command Seals by now, but I don't know if both siblings have obtained the Command Seals. I just received the news that the two of them have obtained the Command Seals.

The siblings have arrived in Fuyuki City."

"What is their purpose in participating in the Holy Grail War? Logically speaking, as magician disciples, they do not need to participate." Kotomine Kirei asked.

"I don't know either. Maybe they knew the reason for the Holy Grail War from their teacher and wanted to get the Third Hoten's Cup. After all, there can only be one successor to the Magician." Tokiomi Tosaka guessed.

"The third method?" Kotomine Kirei lowered his head and didn't know what he was thinking.

"By the way, is there any news from your father?" Tokitoshi Tosaka asked.

Kotomine Kirei's father, Father Risho, assumed the role of supervising the Holy Grail War and was sent to the Fuyuki Church as a full-time priest. Currently, he has a magic weapon called the "Spirit Plate" in his possession. It has the ability to show that it was

The attributes of the heroic spirit summoned by the Holy Grail.

The identity of the Master can only be confirmed through everyone's report, but the number and rank of the Servant who appears, no matter where he is summoned, will definitely be displayed on the "Spiritual Weapon Plate" to facilitate supervision and control of the situation.

"No, according to my father, the only servant who appears now is my Assassin. The other magicians will take action later."

"Yeah. But it's just a matter of time. Sooner or later, there will definitely be other master's familiars coming and going around this room. Because this is the same as the Matou residence and the Einzbern family's villa.

It’s definitely the master’s stronghold.”

Compared with the Yusan family, the advantage of foreign magicians is that the place where they hide is unknown. Therefore, in the early stages of the Holy Grail War, no matter which family will use spies to spy day and night.

Suddenly, Kirei noticed that the movement of the gem that conveyed the message on the Luo Lin paper had not stopped, and it continued to write.

"It seems like there will be a follow-up."

"Well, ah, this is an investigation about another matter. It's not the latest news - it's probably about the master of the Einzbern family that I asked him to investigate."

Information about the Einzbern family, which has been cut off from contact with the outside world, is difficult to obtain even from the Clock Tower in London, but Tokiomi has said before that there are clues about the master.

Tokiomi rolled up the paper at hand and placed it on the desk, then picked up the roll of paper with the new characters on it.

"...This happened nine years ago. Einzbern, who has always been proud of the purity of his bloodline, suddenly found a magician from outside as his son-in-law. This incident was once discussed in the association.

It caused a lot of controversy, but apart from me, the only person who has seen through the truth of this matter is the old patriarch of the Matou family. The name of that magician is——"

"Magician Killer—Emiya Kiritsugu." Kirei's eyes narrowed slightly.

ps: It feels awkward that the Holy Grail War is not introduced.
