London-
Great Grail.
The Great Holy Grail filled with magic gave off a faint light, illuminating this space deep underground in London.
The monarch of the legal department, Barthamelo Lorelia, stood on a high platform at the side and walked slowly, looking at the situation below.
Behind her was Einzbern's contemporary Patriarch, Ubstakuhaid von Einzbern.
"It's already done, the grant of the Command Seal." Lorelia said, her tone was firm and could not be refused.
Of course, although she is not a professional magician in this field, she is the monarch of the clock tower after all, and she doesn't think she will lose to anyone in terms of magic ability alone.
Although it might be troublesome for her to do something about the Holy Grail herself, but—
She has now roughly understood the composition of the Great Holy Grail.
"Yes, that's right." Ubstakuhaid said: "Now, the command spells can be given at any time, and according to the back door we prepared, who can get the command spells can already be granted?" The operation is accurate, but... if you want to summon the heroic spirit, you need to gather magic power for about a year at the current speed."
"Is one year...enough! Well, let's start now!"
Following her order, seven magicians stood in their positions.
In the surrounding area, there were dozens of other magicians among them, almost all of them were magicians from the Department of Law and Political Science, and of course there were two people, Meivis Clara and Hanano Hisashi.
as always.
Hanano Hishiri stood there in furisode kimono, staring at the chosen magicians like a snake...
Those people are just like experimental props...
Even if it is abandoned, no one will stand up—
"start!"
With the order of the Clocktower Queen.
The magic device on the side is connected to the great chalice—
A red light rose at the feet of the seven magicians.
Command Seals floated in their hands.
"Successful!"
Someone shouted excitedly.
"In this way, Dayuan will be able to continue successfully."
Barthemelo frowned slightly. After all, this was something she was responsible for. How could it not go well, how could it not be successful?
"Successful..." Noel Layard looked at the Command Seal on the back of his hand and slowly knelt down to the ground and kissed the ground: "Successful..."
I already have the Command Seal, and the next thing is the Heroic Spirit...
As long as I can complete this mission...
Then...he'll get funding from the Clock Tower.
Noel Layard, he comes from an ancient magic family that has been passed down for thirteen generations, with a history of hundreds of years, but... just like the Matou family in the Far East.
Their family has long since fallen.
The assets in the hands are ten to one.
However, things often turn around like this. A genius appeared in the generation of the Layard family...that is his sister.
It was supposed to be a good thing.
but...
It's not that there is no technique for a complete separation or reintegration, but...a tuner with such a technique...he can't afford it.
So the Layard family can only keep his sister in a comatose state, without getting worse, but there will be no progress.
But now... three years have passed.
If you don't make a decision...
Their family is going to be completely destroyed.
So he participated in this ceremony and took a gamble! If he succeeds, he will be able... to be able to help the clock tower to pay for his sister's recovery, and... in his heart, there is a deeper ambition...
Now, the first step is finally successful.
"No... not good! What's going on—?"
The sudden sound made him startled, and he quickly raised his head to look: "Big... Great Holy Grail? Is it glowing?"
The Great Holy Grail is said to be a cup but in fact it is not. It is wrapped in soil, a special magic block with special lines on it, and traces of the soul are carved inside.
"This is... what's going on?" Bathomero frowned and looked at Yubstakuhaid beside him.
"No...impossible, this is...I don't know either!"
"The magic power in the Great Holy Grail continues to decline! 9, 7, 4, 3, 1...The magic power of the Great Holy Grail...almost half of it disappeared directly..."
"Investigate for me! What happened!" Barthamelo said dissatisfiedly: "Such a thing happened during the ceremony I supervised, don't you want to live?"
"yes!"
The magicians were startled and began to investigate with all their might.
And then...about an hour later the conclusion came out.
There is this hidden mechanism in the Great Holy Grail...just triggered...
"Oh... the Great Holy Grail. Has it changed from a seven-person Holy Grail War to a seven-on-seven... In other words, the total number of Heroic Spirits has changed to fourteen?"
Barthamello smiled.
Faced with such a mistake, she smiled instead: "Very good! It's interesting this way!" As she said, she jumped from a high platform tens of meters away, landed lightly on the ground with the wind, and walked onto the back of a hand. The magician with the command spell said: "Since there are enemies, you who are immature cannot be allowed to use them. Give me your command spell."
As she spoke, she took off the glove on her right hand.
"Huh? What—" Before the magician could say anything.
The Command Seal in his hand is disappearing!
Slowly, one stroke after another appeared on the back of Barthamello's hand.
"I see, is this the Command Seal?"
Barthemelo looked at it and laughed: "It's just—Mavis!"
"exist."
"Notify the other monarchs that a meeting is about to take place. Since enemies may appear, of course it is impossible to let these rookies go to the battlefield. Reselect people from the clock tower for me. My Clone brigade needs three people, and the rest will be handed over. Give them... by the way, from Einzbern, do you want a place?"
"Yes, please be sure." Ubstaku Hayd's eyes lit up, and the old man sensed an opportunity.
"Then, I'll give you one." Barthemelo said indifferently: "In this case, I will take one for myself, three from the Clone brigade, one from Einzbern, and two from the other factions."
"Yes." Meivis saluted and said with some doubts: "But...is this okay? Just give them two..."
"If you don't, just get lost!" Barthemelo put on his gloves and said, "Anyway... the Holy Grail War, I alone is enough."
Meivis was slightly taken aback, then bowed and saluted, she knew... this Queen is serious, she is really ready to end this Holy Grail War by herself...
The others... it's just a sideshow...
"Wait—!" At this moment, a cry came from behind Barthel-Melo.
