[Comprehensive] Self-cultivation of the villain master

There was no contact from Romani Akiman from Chaldea, nor did I receive a call from Kudo Shinichi. After Astra returned from England, she learned that Tsunayoshi Sawada was busy with Vongola's affairs. I have been staying at the newly built Vengley headquarters for a few days and will not go back to my residence.

Astra stayed alone at Tsunayoshi Sawada's residence lazily, enjoying the rare quietness and leisure.Since the beginning of the human rescue mission, he and Tachika Fujimaru have been running around almost non-stop. Compared with the young man who had just entered the battlefield, he was already used to fighting and seeing life and death.

As for why he didn't go back to his home?God knows if there will be someone waiting to plot against him now. Anyway, people who know that he has a relationship with Sawada Tsunayoshi are all eager to fight him. I don’t know if it’s because Pengo Li’s people are all fighting mad. Thanks Stella for that.

"You are really leisurely."

Merlin walked in from the door, and glanced at another servant of the Master who was lying on the table, who was sleeping soundly at the moment.Because of the master's relationship, the servants who were summoned were obviously young, but they were extremely sensible, and they didn't look like the ordinary servants he said.

Came to the table and sat down, Merlin looked at Astra.

"Is something wrong?"

"I suddenly felt a little sympathetic to Tachika Fujimaru. As the master, you can be so comfortable, but he can only stay in the extremely limited place of Chaldea."

Merlin's words caught Astra a little off guard, he spit out the gum in his mouth, and gave him a sideways glance.

"There's nothing to sympathize with. I'm different from him. I'm an original person in this world. I went there out of responsibility. I can't help him share everything."

Merlin spread his hands and said in surprise: "You seem to be a little emotional today, what happened, Master?"

Astra reflected on herself today, and it seemed a little strange. Since the morning, she had a feeling of not being able to lift herself up, and her whole body was limp.

And he who has been insisting on exercising and practicing has nothing to do with lack of exercise.

So, what's the problem?

After thinking about it, Astra felt that Fuyuki's situation had caused his body to suffer a relatively large blow. Thinking of what Aiolos said at that time, he felt more and more at a loss.

There was a question that made him want to know the answer very much.

Before meeting Tsunayoshi Sawada, who was he, what did he do, and what happened to his body?

Seeing that his master had already lost his mind, Merlin couldn't help but ask, "What are you going to do to that child?"

Immediately brought back to his senses, Astra looked at the black-haired boy over there. In fact, he had always thought he looked familiar, but he just couldn't remember where he had seen him.

"He doesn't even know his real name, what can I do with him?"

After pouring Merlin a cup of tea, Astra said slowly, "If you can fight, take it with you. If you can't, let him collect information. His ability to hide is quite strong."

Merlin remembered how horrified he was when he saw the boy for the first time.

Unknowingly, he followed him all the way and asked who he was?He only said that it was sent by the master, but as for why he followed him, the child couldn't explain why, only that it was an order.

It wasn't until they came back together that Merlin realized that this was his master's evil taste, and this boy servant whom he had never seen before was the latest summoned by him.

"Speaking of which, what's wrong with Agas, I haven't seen him since London, did you fail to summon him?"

Astra rolled her eyes when she heard this.

"Are you kidding me? Anyway, I am also one of the masters of Chaldea. Even if I usually do errands and often support Fujimaru Tachika in the rear, I will not fail so that the summoning will fail."

Reviewing his master's words again in his mind, Merlin just wanted to ask one question - who is the person his master said?Rear support is clearly the work of Commander Chaldea, so what does it have to do with him?What else is called running errands?The person who immediately raised his sleeves and started beating up the enemy when he saw the enemy... Isn't it the master, is it their collective illusion?

Opening his mouth, Merlin still decided not to expose the facts. Who knows if the master would kick him directly in anger?

After finally being able to come to the outside world, Merlin was naturally willing to stay longer. Avalon was good, but it was too quiet, and he almost spent it in a dream.

Looking carefully at the boy's face, Merlin suddenly said, "Master, do you think he looks like a person?"

Astra didn't turn her head back and said, "Children of this age are about the same."

For such an unreliable answer from the Master, Merlin knew that he wanted to go wrong, and hurriedly explained: "Do you think he...does he look like a young version of Agas?"

This time Astra reacted. He leaned sideways against the wall, looked at the servant whose face was pinched by Merlin from a distance, and frowned, "It seems a bit like..."

"Then could he be Agas' childhood?"

Seeing that Astra was still confused, Merlin patiently added: "Look, your current strength is showing a sense of weakness, so the summoned servants should also be greatly reduced."

Seeing Astra's eyes resting on him, Merlin emphasized: "Although I was summoned by you, I was supplied with Chaldea's magic power, so... your identity will not be suspected. "

Merlin's words cheered Astra up a bit. He yawned lazily, glanced at the still unconscious boy sleeping on his stomach, and sighed.

"The direction of your guess is correct, but unfortunately - this child is indeed not Agas. To put it more directly, he has nothing to do with Agas."

After thinking about it, Astra said: "Fake. This is what we call imitation or counterfeit substances, and this child is undoubtedly a fake of Agas."

"You... summoned a fake servant?"

"It's not me, it's the Holy Grail that summons the servants."

Astra put a golden square object on the table, and said seriously: "The holy relic I used to summon is still this, but the summoned servant has undergone a fundamental change, that is to say ——There is a problem with the Holy Grail used for summoning.”

Astra is a little worried, the Holy Grail in this world won't be the same as Fuyuki's original one, if that's the case... don't worry about the Holy Grail War, just purify it.

As for the person who owns the Holy Grail, through the dialogue with El-Melloi II, he has roughly been able to know who the other party is.His advantage now is that he knows the other person, and that person doesn't know his existence.

Merlin pondered and said: "...This is really surprising. It seems that something happened to the holy grail of this world."

Astra glanced at Merlin out of the corner of her eye, and thought to herself: It's really that good.

After solving the doubts in front of him, Astra continued to be lazy. If Takeshi Yamamoto hadn't come to find Tsunayoshi Sawada, he would have been so decadent until the Holy Grail War began.

When Takeshi Yamamoto saw that the person who opened the door was Astra, he couldn't help taking a few steps back, and after confirming that the house number was correct, he scratched his head: "I saw that the glass window was open, so I thought Agang was at home."

Astra's tone was indifferent: "Sawada Tsunayoshi will not be back in a short time. If you have something to ask him, just go to Pengo Li's headquarters directly, provided that he still has time to see you."

Even if it is a guardian, it is not always possible to see that person anytime and anywhere.

As far as Astra knows the schedule now, Tsunayoshi Sawada has several meetings to hold, and they are all held for one day. With Reborn, he, the obvious bodyguard, can naturally take a break.

"Is that so..."

Takeshi Yamamoto didn't leave right away, but instead asked with interest: "It's okay if Ganga isn't here, anyway, I have something to look for you."

Astra raised her eyebrows lightly: "Looking for me?"

Apart from fighting with each other, he didn't think he had a good relationship with the guardians, and he couldn't think of any reason for these people to find him.

"Aren't you in charge of the Holy Grail War this time?"

Astra corrected: "It's not responsible, it's participating in the war as one side."

"Then there's no problem."

As he said that, Takeshi Yamamoto took Astra's hand. The latter's body was a little stiff, and his tone was very unnatural.

"You let go... I will go by myself."

Takeshi Yamamoto realized later: "Could it be that you—are you not used to being in contact with people?"

Watching Astra move his hand away, Takeshi Yamamoto said with some doubts: "I thought Hibari was the only exception among Ganga's friends, but I didn't expect you to be the same."

Astra had a cold face and a cold voice.

"Didn't you say that you have questions to ask me about this Holy Grail War? If that's the case, please ask quickly. I still have things to do, and I don't have that much time."

"I'm not the only one who needs to know the answer, but also several other guardians. I'm sure it's better to bring you here to explain."

I always thought that Hayato Gyodera was still struggling to deal with the mess before Pengo Lie, and Astra didn't think of him, but now that he heard Takeshi Yamamoto say this, he asked, "Isn't Hayato Gyodera dealing with business? "

"Ah Gang left a message to tell us that the Holy Grail is the priority, and he will come over when he's busy, so let's go to the gathering place first."

When Astra came back to his senses, he had been dragged onto the plane by Takeshi Yamamoto.

"Wait, why are you flying?"

"Because the destination is in Bingsheng."

I have always known that Tsunayoshi Sawada and the guardians have an indelible affection for Namori, but I never expected it to reach this point, and I even took a plane to that place in order to gather.

Looking at the plane except for him and Takeshi Yamamoto, he didn't know what to say except that he was rich and self-willed.

The cabin with only two people was very empty, and Takeshi Yamamoto seemed to have just rushed back from somewhere, but he just sat quietly in his seat, not dragging other people to talk as usual.

Soon, Astra became a little drowsy.

Standing by the ocean, listening to the sound of huge waves rolling, Astra's heart suddenly calmed down.

He remembered that he had just got on the plane, and that he would appear here, it could only be a dream, or—

Turning around, Astra saw the two people that the clock tower was looking for madly.

"Long time no see, Astra."

The silver-haired woman with a bright smile was wearing a very strange costume. Seeing Astra, she looked very happy and waved at him.

Beside her, Emiya Kiritsugu was wearing a simple black suit with a gentle face.

"I think... I need an explanation."

If this was a dream, Astra swore he would beat Merlin, because it was impossible for these two people to appear in his dream.

"Well, I suppose so. So where's a good place to start?"

The original master of Astra, Irisfel Einzbern, rested her index finger on her chin, looking very distressed. Just looking at her made her feel speechless.

Seeing this, Emiya Kiritsugu could only explain for his wife who was not good at this.

"At that time, you made a wish to the Holy Grail instead of Ellie, isn't that right?"

Astra nodded and said, "Yes, there is nothing wrong."

"But the Holy Grail is not omnipotent. No one knows how to make Ellie, who is the little Holy Grail, become an ordinary human being."

Astra was extremely puzzled, tilted her head and said, "We really don't know, but as long as the Holy Grail knows."

Emiya Kiritsugu was silent for a while, with a somewhat frustrated tone.

"We know the method and let the Holy Grail be fulfilled. This is what the Holy Grail can do. And if we don't know how to do it, even the Holy Grail...can't give us any help."

"Then what did you wish for in the end? In order to find a way to save Irisviel, you spent your time in the Fuyuki Holy Grail War?"

"We thought so too, but you took the Great Holy Grail away at that time, so—"

Astra took Emiya Kiritsugu's words: "You... also followed me back to this world?"

"Yes, that's it."

Astra did not expect that he not only brought back the Holy Grail, but also brought two people from the past era to the future.what does that mean?

"But don't worry, in order to prevent time refutation, we will only stay in your world in the form of heroic spirits."

Astra: "..."

The feeling of having two more servants at this moment... so complicated!
