Next, Shen Er, what's your business?

Chapter 330 Masters of Thousand Boundary Tree
In Mirenia Fortress, a male roar suddenly came from Fiore's room.

"hateful!"

Along with the roar and the sound of fists hitting the wall, it was Fiore's brother, Cowles, who made it all.His face was extremely gloomy, and he had been in this state ever since he learned of the sudden change.

"This is no ordinary Holy Grail War. The seven knights summoned by the Magic Association, the seven knights summoned by us, the two camps attack each other, this is too big a gamble."

"Yes. But, Cowles—"

In contrast to her restless younger brother, her older sister, Fiore, had a look of relief on her face.

"—This is not a bad thing, at least I don't have to fight you. When I think of this, I feel very relieved."

Hearing her sister's transparent voice, the anxiety in Cowles' heart gradually calmed down.

Coles Fulvage Tree of Thousand Worlds didn't want to participate in any Holy Grail War.Furthermore, he didn't even want to be a magician.He just purely loves magic itself.The thrill of holding in your hands the illogical phenomena that science cannot bring about is hard to find anywhere else.

Even so, he didn't want to dedicate his life to magic.After all, magicians are beasts in clothes, a bunch of brutes.But even they would not allow thousands of people to be slaughtered in order to explore magic like in the Middle Ages, but that was purely because they were afraid of being exposed to the world.They are seekers who are far from such beautiful-sounding words as true love and tenderness in the world.That's the magician—I don't want to be that kind of existence.

The reason why Cowles was asked to learn magic was very cruel.Elder sister Fiore's preparation is just such an insignificant existence.

Fiore Furvigi Tree of Thousand Worlds is a jewel of a family of geniuses in seancery and ergonomics.

Generally speaking, there are two kinds of people who are called "geniuses".One is a person who has brilliant talents in a wide range, and the other is a person who hides a terrible talent in a specific field.

Fiore falls into the latter category.Although she is not good at almost all magic, she is only as talented as the first-level lecturer in the Clock Tower in the spiritual arts and ergonomics.In particular, she added a variety of Bronzelink Manipulators created after personal transformation, which are powerful enough for a third-rate magician to eliminate a first-rate magician.

After several generations of blood inheritance, there may not be a magician who can surpass her in the Thousand World Tree family.In terms of potential, she even surpasses the current patriarch Danic, and she will definitely be able to rise from the last child to the first position after she grows up.It is also expected to ascend to the top three (crown position, color position, and allusion position) after concentrating on research.

If there are any shortcomings, the only thing is that I can't move my feet.This is inseparable from her magic.Fiore's magic circuits are located on the feet.However, her magic circuit was naturally degenerated. Affected by it, the functions of her feet stopped completely, and sometimes unbearable pain would strike her.

This aroused the uneasiness of the patriarch Furvigi at the time, so he asked his wife to give birth to Coles as a backup heir, and at the same time acted as the person who took care of Fiore.It's a pity that the miracle didn't happen a second time, and the ordinaryness of Cowles was like the decline of the Fulvig family.The patriarch judged that Fiore should be made the heir even if his feet were inconvenient, so he ordered Corles to take care of her.

For those who are interested in magic and want to inherit the family business, having such a sister must be unbearable.But Cowles didn't think so, on the contrary, he felt very happy.Compared with shouldering the heavy responsibility of a family's fate, it is too easy to just learn magic.It is also because of this that the relationship between the siblings is very good, and they can be regarded as a pair of outliers among the cold-blooded orthodox magicians such as Gold, Roger, and Serenika.

As time passed, when Fiore took the position of head of the Fulvigi family and was expected to become the patriarch of the Yogdomerenia clan, Coles began to explore other ways-as a magic trick that did nothing. Is the teacher going to live his whole life, or should he pursue a more different life?
However, the Holy Grail War came at this time.Coles, who was appointed as Fiore's back-up, showed signs of the Command Seal just after visiting Romania.

He is noncommittal.Other skilled magicians cast jealous glances at him, but he just kept silent.However, no matter what the outside world thinks or what he thinks, he must participate in this Holy Grail War as the master, just as his sister Fiore said——

"That is, I waited for the thousand-world tree's sad wish. To realize the millennium's prosperity, I have to face such a danger. My uncle must have thought a lot, and I am the same. In order to make a wish to the Holy Grail, I have already made it Awareness to fight."

Fiore's still soft voice aroused Coles' uneasiness again, because he knew that his sister was not as strong as she showed.Spiritually speaking, my sister is not as good as him.

I must protect my sister, maybe I can take this opportunity to make my sister realize...

A bold idea was gradually brewing in Cowles' mind.

Cowles was about to say something when Fiore handed over a rectangular box.

"Cawles, take this."

There was an ancient arrow in the box, and the part of the arrow that turned blue and black was blood or something else.Seeing this thing, Cowles was stunned.

"Eh? But isn't this the catalyst you prepared, sister?"

"Yeah, I originally planned to use it." Fiore nodded, "but now the situation has changed. You were originally scheduled to summon Berserker, but this position has already been occupied by that Grand Duke. You originally The one to be summoned doesn't have the aptitude for other job titles, so—”

"What about you, sister?"

"The new catalyst I prepared has been delivered this afternoon."

There was also a box in Fiore's hand, which was much smaller than the box containing the ancient arrows, and there was a black fragment in it.

"Although I don't know if it's the thing I want, but it is indeed older than the one in your hand. Using this should be able to summon quite powerful heroic spirits."

"Since there are such uncertain factors, I should be allowed to—"

"Okay, that's the decision. The time is almost up. I'll go invite Uncle Danik. You can go to the king's room first."

Fiore didn't give her younger brother a chance to continue talking, and drove the wheelchair out of the room, leaving Coles alone with a frown and a wry smile on his face.

——I can only pray that what my sister is holding is genuine, otherwise——What a clumsy sister.

◇◇◇

"Yes, everything is for today"

Danic's words were full of thousands of thoughts.In any case, for more than 60 years after the end of the Third Holy Grail War, he has been making careful preparations in order to deceive others.

The only mishap is that due to the spread of "Fuyuki's" Holy Grail War information, all the holy relics that became catalysts have lost their whereabouts.The catalysts of the ancient King of Heroes, the King of Knights with the strongest holy sword, the King of Conquerors who ruled over half the world, etc., all disappeared without a trace.Even so, the holy relics that he ordered a family to collect over decades are enough to summon excellent heroic spirits.It is not inferior to the sacred relics collected by the Magic Association alone.

And tonight, four heroic spirits will be summoned at the same time, so there will be six.Including Assassin, who should have been summoned in Shinjuku, Tokyo for some reason, there were seven of them.

In other words, in a few hours, Yugdomirenia will set off a rebellious war against the Magic Association.Everything worked as expected except for one thing.Even the fact that the clock tower wanted to annihilate its own clan who showed their intention to betray——it was completely within the scope of prediction.

It was even expected that after fifty magicians sneaked into Tulifas, they waited in the outskirts of the forest, preparing to decide the winner overnight.Fifty magicians who were skilled hunters were wiped out in just 30 seconds by the servants summoned by Danik, which exceeded his expectations.

Also beyond expectations is the fact that the servant's position is not the expected Lancer but Berserker, perhaps influenced by the legends added by some later generations of Vlad III.Generally speaking, Berserker is the most difficult to control among the seven types of jobs. Not only does it consume a lot of mana, but the loss of sanity caused by the madness of job skills also makes it difficult for the master and servants to communicate.

However, these problems did not exist in Vlad III. The supply of magic power was shared by man-made humans. The highest level of EX-level madness possessed by Vlad III also allowed him to maintain rationality and normal communication.That is to say, Vlad III, who has received the bonus of Berserker's job promotion and has not lost his mind, is in the strongest state ever. This makes Danik overjoyed.

Of course, there are surprises and unexpected troubles—the fact that the surviving magician activates the backup system is a flaw that Danik did not predict, but in a sense, he has already made up his mind about this kind of thing .He already understood that if he used all seven servants, he would definitely be hindered by the Magic Association.Seven vs. seven, at least in terms of numbers, can fight against each other.

Although with the background and strength of the Magic Association, it is sure to be able to summon quite high-level heroic spirits.In Romania, however, no Heroic Spirit is more famous than Berserker.Berserker was summoned two months ago, and then he used his inherent skills to turn Tuliphas and the surrounding area into a land under the control of a lord.

As long as he is in this territory, all of Berserker's ability levels will be improved, and continuous use of Noble Phantasms will become possible.The only difficulty is that this servant is a bit difficult to get along with in terms of personality, but Darnic optimistically believes that since the purpose is the same, there is no problem for the time being.

It is also under control which magicians the opponent sent.Except for the supervisor from the Holy Church, the other six are all magicians who have specialized their skills for battle.However, they are doomed to fail in the face of the Thousand Boundary Tree that has been secretly prepared for many years.

The sound of the wheels rolling made Danic turn around.

"Uncle, the time is almost up."

The girl in the wheelchair was smiling, and as if being seduced by that cute smile, a smile appeared on Danic's face.

"How's it going, Fiore."

"The situation is okay, but my brother seems to be a little carried away."

"I didn't expect both of you siblings to manifest Command Seals. If it was in the Holy Grail War following the original form, this might be the beginning of a tragedy."

"...Yes, it will definitely be like that."

Whether it is a junior or a biological brother, as long as there is a conflict of interest, they will kill each other. This is the common sense of magicians.But the situation of the siblings is different. This is purely because the strength gap between the siblings is too great.In Danik's view, if that accident hadn't happened, it might have turned into a scene like Fiore unilaterally killing her timid younger brother—a tragedy without a doubt.

"I heard that the Magic Association has dispatched the last magician."

"The news is really well-informed."

Danik smiled wryly.The person lurking in the clock tower sent a report about an hour ago.

"It's finally about to start..."

"That's right. Just today, the Holy Grail War between the "black" and "red" servants will begin. We, the Thousand Worlds Tree, will hold the mysteries and miracles of this world in our hands."

"..."

Fiore's melancholy expression was not purely due to her distaste for fighting.She used to study in the clock tower just like ordinary magicians.Her classmates are still in school now, so she doesn't have any particular dissatisfaction.Of course, I didn't want to be directly enemies with my friends... Even so, I still felt a certain grudge in my heart.

Needless to say, there is also horror.In the world of magicians, the clock tower is an absolute symbol.In the organization founded in the first year of the Western calendar, all mysteries and all magic are gathered, and it is truly the most advanced magic organization in the world.There was something in that organization that Fiore couldn't even imagine.

However, it is even more impossible to disobey the Patriarch Danic.It's a 20-year-old delicate monster that has lived for a hundred years, but has a family's number one magic imprint.The moment someone disobeys him, he will be expelled from the clan's network. Even if he flees to the Magic Association, those who are waiting in front of him will only be regarded as blood relatives of traitors, and they will live a miserable life.

Even so, if there is no chance of winning, Fiore will object.However, what is now reflected in her eyes is a huge pale altar—a big magic circle that stores infinite power and moves.

"I'll just let you see it, but keep it a secret from the others."

Having said that, Darnic invited her to come to the bottom of the Great Holy Grail that has been secretly hidden all this time.Although it hadn't been fully activated yet, the overwhelming amount of magical power and solemn atmosphere had already fascinated Fiore.

——With this wish machine, the wish hidden in your heart can be easily realized.

Fiore couldn't resist Darnic's whisper.She also has a dream, a wish that cannot be realized no matter how extreme magic is.

The confrontation with classmates is nothing more than sadness after all, and it cannot stop myself from achieving my goal.Fiore had already decided that she would put her body into a full-scale confrontation with the Magic Association.

"Then, please attend the summoning ceremony of the guarding knights (servants) together with the Grand Duke."

"Yes, Uncle."

PS: The next chapter, Servant Summoning, is when the second master will appear on the stage.
