In fact, Aika had already made targeted arrangements for the Masters six months ago.
They can reap victory as soon as the Holy Grail War begins.
Of course, she had promised Yalin that she would become a normal girl.
To murder an innocent high school student. And a guest that Yalin knew—this is absolutely unacceptable.
A normal girl wouldn't be so cruel.
Therefore, her arrangement will not harm Laiye Xun's life; at most, it will only put him into a deep sleep for a period of time.
Over the years, Aika has come to understand Yalin's personality. She would never do anything to make him dislike her.
Yes, Aika's values have always followed Yalin's.
Yalin hopes she will become a certain kind of person, and Aige will respond to his expectations and transform into that kind of person.
“They’re all regulars,” Yalin said casually, glancing at the fairy-like girl, before changing the subject.
"Next, I'll cook. Do you have any preferences regarding the taste?"
"No, no matter what dish Lin-kun makes, I will eat it with love. Even if it's poison, I will swallow it without hesitation." Aika clenched her fist, her face resolute.
"Don't say such extreme things."
Yalin tapped the girl on the head in an annoyed tone. As the girl covered her forehead, he closed the shop door and went upstairs to the kitchen.
Ai Ge followed closely behind, looking aggrieved.
Even though I said all that, I was still ignored. Yalin is such a blockhead.
However, when she saw that Yalin had specially cooked for her, the girl's dissatisfaction vanished, and she smiled happily.
They proactively washed the dishes and waited for dinner to begin.
During this time, Aika inadvertently glanced at the Command Seals on Yalin's wrist.
A look of surprise appeared in her eyes.
Strange, Lin Jun was actually chosen by the Holy Grail?
This is a variable that will not exist in the future, and it may even disrupt her plans to some extent.
Aika didn't really care about that, and this wasn't the first time her plans had been disrupted by Yalin.
What she really cared about was what kind of heroic spirit Yalin would summon.
If it's someone of the same sex, that's fine, but if it's someone of the opposite sex...
Just thinking about Yalin living intimately under the same roof with a strange woman for at least a week is unbearable.
The girl couldn't help but feel jealous; she was very possessive.
......
"Lin Jun, do you have a suitable relic?"
After finishing her meal, the girl sat on the sofa and asked Yalin with concern.
"No, I was just about to ask the Sajou family if they have any extra relics. They don't need to be too valuable, as long as they can summon Servants."
Yalin recalled his previous purpose and immediately spoke.
Anyway, he was prepared to take the field himself, and ordinary Servants wouldn't be of much use to him.
If all else fails, you can use affinity summoning.
Aige smiled happily upon hearing this, patting her chest and confidently declaring, "Don't worry, Lin-kun, I will find the most suitable relic for you."
If Yalin were to perform an affinity summon, she couldn't be sure what kind of Servant she would summon.
However, if you provide artifacts, the probability of something going wrong is greatly reduced.
The likes of fox spirits will certainly never appear again.
"Then I'll have to trouble Aigo."
Since the girl's concern and kindness were hard to refuse, Yalin did not decline.
He knew that Ai Ge was up to something, but that selfishness was part of what made her so endearing.
As the moon rose high in the sky, Yalin personally escorted Aige back.
And halfway through, we chose two pastries as a late-night snack for my wife and her friends.
When I left Sajou's house, the streets were deserted in the dead of night.
Yalin stretched and began his nighttime mana replenishment.
......
Warehouse in Minato Ward, Tokyo.
A summoning of heroic spirits is taking place in an empty room.
"—I declare. You entrust your body to me, and my fate rests upon your sword..."
A magician named Seiji Ninaga chants a summoning incantation.
As one of the Masters chosen by the Church of the Holy See and born into a prestigious family in the Far East, he was both excited and anxious at this moment.
He has poured everything he has into the Holy Grail War and cannot afford any mistakes.
"...You are bound by the three great incantations for seven days, come forth from the Wheel of Suppression, guardian of the scales—!"
Renga Seiji's bloodshot eyes were fixed on the summoning circle on the ground.
If he succeeds, he will be the first Master to summon a Heroic Spirit, taking a firm step toward the Greater Grail and even the Root.
As for failure... it's absolutely impossible for him to fail. He's as poor as a ghost now, there's no turning back, and he's counting on the Holy Grail War to rise to the top in one fell swoop.
In his longing gaze, a phantom gradually solidified, eventually revealing a graceful young woman.
The girl wore a skull mask and stood in the shadows, seemingly blending into them.
It worked! It actually worked!
"Haha, I knew it would work."
The magician couldn't help but burst into laughter, cheering for himself.
As the first Master to successfully summon a Servant, he couldn't help but be excited and cheer.
As the saying goes, if you're quick in one step, you'll be quick in every step.
Now, Seiji Renga is full of confidence and has even made a declaration of victory.
"I will definitely win!"
"Determination and confidence flowed out of my mouth together," the magician said with certainty.
"I will slaughter six men and six riders!"
No one could stop him from winning.
Renhe Zhengji was very confident about this. He had already bought the port surrounding the warehouse and transformed it into a magic workshop teeming with murderous intent.
Whether they are magicians or heroic spirits, once they arrive here, they will surely be ensured that their opponents never return!
"Because, this Assassin and I are invincible!"
After achieving victory, he will fulfill the magician's great wish and reach the legendary source.
Just imagining such a scene made Seiji Renga's heart pound, as if he had already obtained the Holy Grail and was indulging in unbridled fantasies.
But after a few breaths, he felt his heart beating faster and faster as if it were no longer restricted by his body.
This alerted Seiji Renga, who began to struggle. His various magical artifacts immediately took effect, but they couldn't quell the turmoil in his heart.
"No, this shouldn't be happening. Help me!"
Unable to resolve his predicament on his own, he could only reach out and try to ask his followers for help.
Assassin noticed this and immediately rushed over to save his Master, but suddenly stopped halfway.
Her entire body is covered in venom; if she gets close to her Master, the Master will die.
Therefore, the Assassin named Hassan-i-Sabah, also known as the Serene Hassan, could only watch helplessly as his Master's heart shattered, dying with his eyes wide open in disbelief.
Gazing at her Master's corpse, she fell into utter bewilderment.
Heroic spirits summoned by the Holy Grail usually have wishes that need to be fulfilled.
Tranquil Hassan was no exception.
She had a very superficial wish: to meet someone who wouldn't die or fall down even if she were touched.
She would give anything for this.
But what is the situation now?
She had barely shown herself when her Master was gone.
The stark contrast caused the usually composed Hassan to instantly lose his composure.
After losing her Master, she will not only be unable to fulfill her wish with the Holy Grail, but will likely dissipate completely in the near future.
No, we can't give up yet!
Quiet Hassan immediately left the warehouse; having achieved her goal, she was absolutely unwilling to perish.

Book 1: Chapter 34: The Poison of Silent Hassan
Yalin wanders in the shadows of Tokyo, constantly absorbing negative emotions.
As physical strength and mental fortitude improve, the magical power the body can hold reaches an incredibly terrifying level. If it were to fill that capacity from scratch, the time required would be far longer than initially.
However, in the past six months, apart from expending a lot of magic power to learn magic, Yalin has not needed to expend a lot of magic power.
Therefore, the magic power in his body is always close to overflowing, and only a little replenishment is needed.
"After all this time, EVA Yarin should have raised the ceiling of her Demon King talent by now, right?"
Yalin thought with a hint of anticipation. His expectations weren't high; he just wanted to expand the range of negative emotions he could perceive and absorb.
N-A-A
