El-Melloi II, whose real name is Waver Velvet, is the Rider of the Fourth War--the master of the conquering king Iskandar.
This is undoubtedly a very important figure.
Weber revived the El-Melloi School after Director Ken's death, inherited the name "El-Melloi", and became the Lord of the Modern Magic Department (Nolighi), one of the twelve departments of the Clock Tower of the Magic Association.
At the same time, Weber is also the most popular lecturer in the Clock Tower. He has huge influence in the Clock Tower. In the future, he will become Rin Tohsaka's mentor during his further studies in the UK...
"Deal? With all due respect, your identity is really suspicious. I have never heard of Tohsaka Riko."
On the other end of the phone, Weber didn't ask about the transaction. He first questioned the identity of the other party.
What the hell is Tohsaka's meritorious service?
After the Fourth War, he made a special investigation of the Yusan family and almost identified all eighteen generations of their ancestors...
There is absolutely no such person in the Tosaka family, let alone Tosaka Tokiomi’s brother!
Ren coughed lightly and explained:
"Ahem, it's just a joke...El-Melloi II, I can now fully represent the Tosaka family when it comes to transactions. You can easily ask the Tosaka family for confirmation later."
"Oh, is it so?
Sir, you are not a Servant, right? The Holy Grail War has already begun, right? Why, the Tohsaka family has been in trouble recently and needs help from the Association?"
Weber's voice on the other end of the phone was very calm. Although he was asking a question, there was no doubt in his tone and he seemed to be sure of his guess.
'Awesome, my brother.'
Ren's mouth twitched slightly. Ten years later, Weber was not only taller and more handsome, but also more difficult to fool.
Of course he knew Weber Velvet, and the two had even talked to him many times and had many interactions.
During the Fourth Holy Grail War, he and the emperor finally had a decisive battle at the Miyokawa Bridge. He used the enhanced version of the "Infinite Sword System" to defeat the emperor's "King's Army"...
After Si Dai was selected by the system as the "Blessed One No. 2", she did not choose to take away the Holy Sword of the Star Excalibur. In the end, Ren gave the Holy Sword to Weber and asked him to give it to Xiao Hui in the future, that is, Ge.
bud.
However, for this world, this is something that happens in a parallel world.
Therefore, of course, Renn is not looking for Weber to reminisce about the past this time, nor can he have any relationship with him. He knows Weber, but the Weber in this world does not know him.
"That's right, I am Archer. My master Tohsaka Rin hopes that Mr. Velvet will use your personal connections to introduce a top conciliator to the Tosaka family.
In exchange, any future activities you carry out in Fuyuki City will receive the full support of the Tosaka family, the managers of Fuyuki City’s leyline and mysterious side!”
"Teacher? Is there something wrong with the magic seal?"
El-Melloi II's tone on the other end of the phone was a little confused.
A tuner is a magician who specializes in adjusting magic seals. He can naturally intervene in the circulation, suppress the side effects of seal transplantation, and even repair magic seals... This profession is very rare even in the Clock Tower.
All living things have their own inherent fluctuations. Although the fluctuations between blood relatives will be very similar, they are by no means exactly the same.
The magic mark is also a kind of life, so it has different fluctuations from the host. Therefore, as long as the fluctuations of both parties are as close as possible, the efficiency of the magic mark will be significantly improved. This is the role of the tuner.
"Yes, we need a mediator, your friend Melvin Weintz, who can arrive after the Holy Grail War ends."
Ren said calmly, his eyes beckoning Sister R beside him to come over and give him a pat on the back.
With that pretty face, Sister R reluctantly walked behind him. Thinking that he was really trying to find a way for Ying, she reluctantly stretched out her hands to squeeze her shoulders and hit her back.
On the other end of the phone, Weber seemed to be thinking and didn't reply for a while.
Melvin Weintz was born in the branch of "Tranberio", one of the three nobles of the Clock Tower, the headquarters of the Magic Association, and is a magician affiliated with the Clock Tower Creation Department (Baruye).
He is engaged in the specialized profession of regenerating and activating magic seals——Tunemaker.
By the way, when Weber came to Fuyuki City to participate in the Holy Grail War, he borrowed the air tickets and travel expenses from him.
Melvin's family is also good at repairing magic seals. For example, their family is planning to repair Kenneth El-Melloi's original magic seal with a fifty-year plan.
Director Ken was hit by an "Origin Bullet" from Father Kiritsugu. Due to the "cut and then resume" nature of the Origin Bullet, his magic mark was almost completely damaged, with only 10% left, which is why it took so long to repair.
In comparison, it is much easier to peel off and repair the Matou family's magic seal which is generally intact.
As long as Melvin is willing to take action, it won't take long. This is why Renne called Webb.
After all, he didn't know Melvin, and it was very difficult to find someone with a profession like a lawyer, so he had to use the Magic Association's channels.
On the other end of the phone, after a moment of silence, Weber suddenly asked a somewhat strange question:
"Any activities? Archer, if I want to destroy a spiritual vein in Fuyuki City, will the Tohsaka family support me?"
"That depends on which spiritual vein it is."
Ren's eyes narrowed slightly and his voice gradually slowed down.
"for example?"
"For example, the one at Liudong Temple is fine."
"..."
There was another brief silence before Weber's quiet voice came:
"Ten years ago, after the Fourth Holy Grail War, a fire broke out in the Fuyuki Civic Hall. I broke through the church's blockade to check and found some remaining traces... Well, it's a bit strange. It doesn't look like it.
Caused by the fight between Servants... In short, there seems to be something wrong with the Holy Grail system in Fuyuki City."
Such keen insight?
Ren was a little surprised and said meaningfully:
"There is something wrong with the Holy Grail system... Moreover, this is the last time the Tohsaka family will participate in the Holy Grail War. If it fails, the Holy Grail will have no value.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! If you want to do anything afterwards, the Tosaka family would not mind cooperating."
"...I understand, Archer, the deal is done!"
Over there, Weber's voice was particularly calm, "After this Holy Grail War is over, I will come to Fuyuki City immediately. I hope that the Tohsaka family can share information about the Holy Grail and cooperate with my actions as appropriate."
“A pleasure to work with.”
The corner of Ren's mouth curled up slightly, and he happily sold the Holy Grail and Xiao An ("The Evil in this World" Angora Mainyu).
After all, even without him, ten years after the end of the Fifth Holy Grail War, Lord El-Melloi II would visit Fuyuki City again, and together with Tohsaka Rin, the head of the Tohsaka family, would completely dismantle the Great Holy Grail.
This time, he just let Weber confirm in advance that there was something wrong with the Holy Grail.
“A pleasure to work with.”
Weber agreed immediately, and then he seemed to have a headache:
"I can give you Melvin's contact number and give him a call first... However, if you want him to go to the Far East, you still need to spend some time."
"No problem, can you tell Melvin what he likes?"
Holding the microphone, Ren said lazily while enjoying the service of Sister R, a maid who squeezed her shoulders and rubbed her back.
"Hmph, what else could it be, money and beauties? As long as you are generous enough and use 'Japanese beauties' to seduce him... Ahem, in short, it is not difficult to make him, an unscrupulous guy, go to the Far East.
"
Weber's voice suddenly became very disdainful, as if in his eyes Melvin, the flirting lawyer, was a pervert and a playboy.
"Japanese beauty?su go i(so amazing!)"
Weber bit these four words hard, and Ren seemed to understand what he meant, with a lewd smile on his face.
After talking for a while, he hung up the phone.
The contact information of the adjuster Melvin has been given to him. Weber said that he would contact the other party first and then call Melvin to discuss it half an hour later.
The hotel suites are brightly lit and luxuriously decorated.
Ren turned his head and stared at Medusa. Her graceful body curves and soft skin like snow and porcelain were particularly attractive under the light. He reached out and patted the big bed:
"Beauty, waiting is always boring, and wasting time is shameful. How about we have an in-depth exchange of ideas?"
"Archer, you said there was something wrong with the Holy Grail. What happened?"
Sister R had a pretty snow-white face and snorted coldly. She crossed her arms and stared at him with her purple eyes.
"What's going on? I've eaten up the Holy Grail. Otherwise, why don't I grab the Holy Grail first and then use it to make a wish to change Sakura's body... Why bother now?"
Ren leaned back and lay on the soft big bed of the hotel.
A broken cup is not a "universal wishing machine". If someone wishes for world peace, happiness for everyone, equality, etc., then it is better to go to bed early.
Not to mention the Holy Grail, even God himself can't do this.
However, if the Holy Grail is not contaminated, making a wish for a different body, asking for money, etc. can still come true.
"Archer, why do you know so much?" Sister R's beautiful eyes were full of doubts.
There was something wrong with the Holy Grail. This news really surprised and shocked her. Doesn't this mean that all the Masters and Servants are fighting pointlessly?
"Rider, if you don't want to sleep with me, don't be surprised. I know a lot of things. I don't have time to explain them to you one by one. You are not my ally."
Lying on the bed with her body in a big letter shape, seeing a look of disdain on Sister R's face beside her, Ren curled his lips:
"You don't believe it, do you? For example, a woman named Medusa is 172 cm tall, weighs 57 kg, and has measurements of 88/56/84 cm... Wow, this devilish figure is so hot, it makes me feel a little bit...
I can’t hold it anymore.”
"you……"
Sister R's face suddenly changed, and she felt a little horrified.
As a woman, all her private data was exposed. She was so frightened that she took a few steps back and put her hands on her chest.
"Hey, are you scared? Don't worry, follow me from now on and keep your favorite food. Maybe one day you go back to your hometown and you can exalt that scumbag Poseidon and accept Athena as your little sister.
.”
Master Ren started brainwashing through pyramid schemes again... ahem, and started planning a great future for his subordinates.
"...Stop talking nonsense, Archer, since we are on the same team now, tell us about the Holy Grail."
Just thinking that he was talking crazy and bragging, after Medusa calmed down, she was still more concerned about the Holy Grail.
"Well, as my subordinate, since you asked the question sincerely, I will tell you with great mercy..."
Ren grinned and talked about the Holy Grail system.
Including the three imperial families, the Great Holy Grail, the Lesser Holy Grail, the Third Heavenly Grail, and the matter of reaching the source... There is no doubt that this information surprised Medusa.
"So, even if something goes wrong with the Great Holy Grail, it can still play some role?" Sister R frowned.
Renn couldn't help but sneered: "Yes, for many people, it doesn't matter whether the Holy Grail is contaminated or not!"
For the Einzbern family, the contaminated Holy Grail can still achieve the third magic - the materialization of the soul.
For the Tosaka family, the contaminated Holy Grail can still reach the "Source Vortex" as long as it is fully activated.
For the Matou family, the contaminated Holy Grail can still help the old bug achieve immortality.
Magic is magic, and polluted magic can also be used as energy. What the Yusan family longs for has never been a "universal wishing machine". This is just a cover for them to trick other magicians into joining the war.
The people who were really tricked by the Black Holy Grail, and who were very unlucky, were not the Gosan family, but Emiya Kiritsugu, and the idiot King who wanted to use the Holy Grail to make wishes.
Even if they get the Holy Grail, their joy is in vain.
So that's it... Sister R's face is a bit ugly, her emotions are all in vain, the Holy Grail can't save Sakura at all!
"Archer, thank you."
Medusa thanked him sincerely, and then she realized that without Archer, the possibility of Sakura being saved this time was very slim.
"It's useless to say this. Thank you very much for lying in my arms. If you don't lie down, just cool down."
Ren got up from the bed, took out a game console he bought in the store a few days ago from "Infinite Arms", and prepared to play "Super Mario". It didn't matter if he didn't have a girl, FC games were his true love.
.
This guy has such a bad character... Sister R suddenly had black lines on her head:
"Archer, can you be more serious? We are fighting the Holy Grail War!"
"I'm very serious. In order to clear the level in one life, I put my best foot forward!"
After connecting the FC red and white machine to the TV, Ren held the handle.
His fingers were pressing the buttons quickly, and he was playing the game character Mario with a big nose and a hat, and his expression was very serious.
I think back then, he was the "Little Prince of FC", he had passed all levels of Red Fortress, Double Dragon, Contra, Green Corps, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, and he was the tyrant in the village in terms of operation, reaching the level of Dugu Qiu.
The only thing he didn't clear was Super Mario, which made him feel very sad and deeply regretful.
He doesn't believe it anymore. Now that he is so strong, he is at the ceiling level of a servant, and he still can't clear Super Mario!
Sister R: “…”
"Archer!! Stop making trouble. Since the Black Holy Grail is still useful, in order to prevent some careerists from getting it, we should find a way to control the key item - the Little Holy Grail, so that we can take the initiative!"
Medusa glared at him and said solemnly.
"MD, it's all your fault that it died!"
Ren threw away the controller, rolled his eyes, and explained:
"Why are you anxious? The Matou family has been destroyed, which has broken the situation of this Holy Grail War... Even if we don't take action, others will definitely not be able to sit still."
"Then let's just watch like this?"
"That's right, Rider, I add your power, Rin plus Bazett, we have become one of the strongest camps, and we have the qualifications to watch and watch the show.
Since other people want to cause trouble, let them perform to their heart's content!"
Ren smiled coldly, now, Mapo's side is no better than them.
He goes to deal with Jin Shining. As long as Sister R can restrain Lancer, Bazett and Rin are enough to deal with Kirei Kotomine.
Take the initiative?
They already have the upper hand! What's more important than being strong?
"That's it." Sister R thought for a moment and nodded.
Master Ren continued to pick up the game controller and started playing Super Mario.
It's just a Holy Grail War, can it be compared to playing FC mini-games? I don't think so, anyway, he is an invincible copycat king.
………
Dongmu Church has a quiet environment on the hillside. The Western-style building stands in the blurred night, looking slightly eerie.
Squeak~
The dusty Kotomine Kirei exhaled a breath and opened the door of the church.
He had just gone to the Matou residence and asked the people from the Holy Church to cordon off the area.
How to explain the situation to the public tomorrow gives Mapo a little headache. If it doesn't work, just say it's a gas explosion...
"Kirei, how's the situation?" Jin Shining, who was wearing a motorcycle suit, sat on a chair and looked at him with scarlet pupils.
"...Matou Shinji is dead. Matou Zouken is not sure, but even if he is not dead, he is still hiding. Matou Sakura's whereabouts are unknown, and it was Archer and Tohsaka Rin who took action.
In addition, Rider stopped Lancer who wanted to investigate the situation."
The corners of Jin Shining's mouth raised slightly: "Interesting, it seems that the situation has become a bit tricky."
"Yes, if Archer and Rider join forces, it will be a bit difficult." Mapo frowned. The Tosaka family's lineup can already threaten his side.
"It doesn't matter, it seems that the unfortunate woman from the Matou family has been rescued, but in this way, she will not fall into depravity, and there is no value in continuing to observe."
Jin Shanxian said calmly, thinking that once he became serious, he would be invincible. He didn't care at all whether the enemy was difficult or not.
At most, he would be more serious when fighting later, so now he talked about Matou Sakura's situation.
In fact, Jin Shining had already noticed the abnormality of Matou Sakura who had been implanted with the Holy Grail fragment by the old bug, so he went there that day and told her to commit suicide as soon as possible.
"That's right. In this case, Illya will be even more important."
A pleasant smile appeared on Father Mapo's lips:
"Gilgamesh, are you interested in taking action? Although Lancer has extraordinary strength, he has unfavorable compatibility. It will be very difficult for him to deal with the monster Berserker."
The Tohsaka family was already a big threat. He changed his mind about watching the show slowly and wanted to get the Little Holy Grail first to take the initiative.
However, Lancer's must-hit gun "Death Thorn" is very unfavorable against Berserker who can be resurrected multiple times. In hand-to-hand combat, Berserker is also stronger.
Therefore, Kotomine Kirei is not optimistic that Lancer Cu Chulainn can defeat Hercules. The winning rate is yes, but it is relatively low.
In fact, Kuang Hai, who is also one of the "Three Shinings in Europe", is indeed stronger than Big Dog and Dumao Wang without a scabbard.
"Huh, I'm tired of fighting with low-level amateurs."
Jin Shining crossed his legs with a disdainful expression. He had participated in the Holy Grail War once and was not very interested in participating in the war again.
"However, since it is Hercules, that is a different matter! The great hero in Greek mythology must be able to wipe away all my fatigue!
At least, it can serve as a warm-up before the final battle!"
Mr. Jin stood up, with a fighting spirit in his scarlet pupils.
"warm up?"
Kotomine Kirei held the Bible in his hand and looked at the ancient king with a strong aura, "Oh, in your opinion, there is a stronger enemy? Is it that weird Archer?"
"Anyway, he makes me feel very uncomfortable... In a few days, I will go to Einzbern Castle."
Jin Shining frowned, said nothing, put his hands in his pockets and walked away.
When he observed Archer before, the sense of threat that lingered in his heart was always lingering... However, he was naturally not afraid, but found it interesting and looking forward to it.
It's just the Holy Grail War, don't think about it anymore, I am invincible anyway, let's clear the game first.
After returning to the small building where he lived, Mr. Jin hurriedly sat in front of the TV and picked up the game controller connected to the red and white machine.
There are many cassettes on the tatami next to them, such as "Contra", "Double Dragon", "Ninja Gaiden", "MapleStory" and other classic FC mini-games. He has basically completed all of them.
Don't wonder why the Ancient King plays games.
He has been in modern times for ten years. Apart from occasionally chatting with Kotomine Kirei, he basically has no friends and often stays at home.
Otaku, if you don’t play games, what else can you do to chase fans?
Are you touching yourself?
"Dead again..."
Seeing the game character Mario fall into the cliff, Mr. Jin's face was livid, his body was shaking with anger, and he immediately chose to start over.
"It's just Super Mario! I don't believe it anymore, I can't pass the level!!"
Gilgamesh is at odds with this game! It’s important to clear the level first, and then go to the castle to fight with Berserker.
………
"Shit! Dead again!"
In the hotel's luxurious suite, Ren was sitting in front of the TV with a slightly ferocious expression.
Why can't I pass the level of Super Mario? Maybe he was too excited, and with a click, he broke the game controller in half!
"..."
Sister R rolled her eyes, looked at the clock on the wall, and reminded: "Archer, it's time to call the adjuster Melvin."
"Okay!" With a look of resentment on his face, Ren threw away the broken game controller in his hand and started making an international long distance call.
After a while, the call was connected, and a man's breathing and a woman's strange voice could be heard faintly from the other side.
"Oh, baby, please be gentle, hey...hey, who is it? Is it the guy introduced by Weber? If you fart, hurry up, I'm busy here!"
The noise on the other end of the phone was a bit loud and the voice was very impatient.
