"ah?"
No one expected that this lich who had lived for who knows how many years actually wanted to join the academy. Everyone at the scene was slightly stunned.
But soon, everyone spoke at almost the same time:
"No, no, no, no, that's impossible no matter how you think about it."
"Why do I feel like you guys look down on me?"
Everyone smiled awkwardly at Leticia's remarks. After all, who could have thought that this super-class lich would actually want to go to the academy to study
This is as outrageous as His Majesty the King suddenly deciding to go to the fields to farm.
Of course, given King Hubbard's character, it is not impossible for such a thing to happen.
In short, after discussing the topic of the academy, everyone quickly packed up. After all, the afternoon movie "Fate Stay Night" was not far away, and they had to rush over immediately after preparing for a while.
…
There was nothing worth mentioning during the lunch break, or rather, the anticipation for the new movie was enough to dispel all movie lovers' desire to eat and rest.
With still an hour left before the movie started, the entrances of all the major cinemas were already packed with people, and people couldn't help but discuss "Fate Stay Night".
"The sequel to the Fate series will be out this afternoon. I've been looking forward to it for a long time!"
"Yeah, yeah, I've been looking forward to it too. The ending of the previous "Fate Zero" was so outrageous that I couldn't accept it at all. I hope this time's "Fate Stay Night" can fill the gap."
"Speaking of which, who will be the protagonist of this fate? It seems that at the end of the Fourth Holy Grail War, most of the remaining people have died, and only Kotomine Kirei and Waver are still alive. Will the next story be about these two people?"
"Weber? Maybe it's possible. After all, he acted so cowardly during the Fourth Holy Grail War. Maybe he will have a prominent role in the sequel?"
"But even so, what kind of story will this "Fatestay Night" tell? The Fourth Holy Grail War has ended. Is it the Fifth Holy Grail War?"
"Maybe. Anyway, I'm looking forward to it!"
"… "
The discussion about the afternoon movie "Fate Stay Night" was overwhelming throughout the empire, which was enough to prove the extremely high popularity of the Fate series.
The previous success of "Fate Zero" made all the audience firmly believe that this "Fate Stay Night" must also be a good enough movie.
Therefore, even though the movie had not yet started, people's discussion about the film had reached an extremely intense level, causing the managers of major cinemas to fall into a confused feeling of joy and panic.
…
At the same time, in Arkans in the east.
The dwarf prince also heard the discussion about "Fate Stay Night" among the people around him. As a person who had just arrived in the human empire and whose knowledge of movies was limited to "The Quintessential Quintuplets", he could not quite accept the almost fanatical praise of the Fate series by the people around him.
Therefore, facing the discussion of the people around him, he couldn't help but speak:
“Is this “Fate” really that good?”
In response to the typical country bumpkin's remarks from the dwarf prince, the people of the East Territory immediately shouted:
"What do you mean, you little dwarf? Do you look down on "Fate"? I tell you, "Fate Zero" is the best movie so far, no objection!"
For a moment, just as the man finished his speech and Prince Bunilla had no time to get angry about the other party calling him a dwarf, the other people around him started to scold him.
"What did you say? "FateZero" is the best movie so far? I, "Steins;Gate", disagree!"
"That's right. Even if we don't mention Steins;Gate, the previous Kon: God's Blessing on This Wonderful World and Goblin Slayer are also very exciting movies. Why do you say that Fate Zero is definitely better than them?"
"There's also 'Kara no Kyoukai', even though it's only been shown on TV, it's definitely as exciting as ever!"
"… "
Suddenly, because of a small provocative remark, the scene was immediately filled with verbal attacks among major movie lovers.
In response, Prince Bunilla felt even more horrified when he saw this shocking scene he had never imagined seeing before.
In fact, this shock far exceeded the huge explosion felt on the ship before.
After all, the Big Bang is just a powerful physical destructive force, but the excitement of the movie revealed in these heated discussions among the public is far greater than the shock brought by the physical destruction.
Prince Bunilla couldn't wait to rush into the cinema to enjoy how wonderful the so-called movie was!
Chapter 391: "Fate Stay Night" Released (Part 2)
Chapter 391
The movie "Fate Staynight" has attracted the attention of thousands of people before it officially started, and everyone has started various discussions about the sequel to this Fate series.
As soon as the cinema officially announced the opening of its doors, endless numbers of people naturally poured into the cinema again.
People are all eager to see the sequel to the movie and want to know what exciting plot is waiting for them.
Of course, there are also many people complaining about the ending of the previous "Fate Zero". The tragic endings one after another really hurt too many people's hearts.
This time, people just hope that the protagonist of the movie can have a less tragic ending, that's all.
…
Not only ordinary people, but also magicians of the Imperial Magic Academy are looking forward to the sequel to this Fate series.
The previous "Fate Zero" showed so many wonderful confrontations between magicians, which completely changed the magician's perception of spell battles.
At present, the magicians in the academy are naturally looking forward to its subsequent content. They want to know what kind of strange magician will appear in this fate movie and what kind of fierce battle will take place.
"Will this fate movie still be about the Holy Grail War?"
"That should be the case, but the question is what kind of Master will summon what kind of Heroic Spirit this time? Will the Heroic Spirit that appeared before appear again?"
"I don't know. The most important question is, what happened to Kotomine Kirei and Gilgamesh, the last two survivors in Fate Zero? People like them have no bottom line when it comes to doing bad things, right?"
"Yes, maybe after the Holy Grail War, many ordinary people fell into their hands."
"This time, "Fatestay Night" must explain all these plots."
“I’m really looking forward to it.”
"… "
…
While the magicians expressed their expectations for the movie, the knights of the Imperial Knights also expressed their expectations for "Fate Stay Night".
After all, they are knights, and they cannot appreciate the magician's awkward and unpleasant fighting style, but on the contrary, they are looking forward to the fierce fights between heroes and the passionate sword fights.
"The last heroic battle was quite exciting. It would be great if we could have a similarly intense battle this time."
"Yeah, I still want to see another intense life-and-death battle like that between Saber and Lancer, or Archer and Rider."
"It's a pity that the magicians in Fate Zero are too much of a hindrance, not allowing the servants to fight freely at all. Lancer's death is really unfair. And Berserker, if his master hadn't collapsed so quickly, it would have been better to let him fight Saber to the end."
"I was actually looking forward to the battle between Saber and Rider. I felt that the battle between these two would be very interesting. On the contrary, Archer, due to his excessive strength, defeated Rider without even having to fight."
"Yeah, yeah. If I have to say, the most exciting battle in FateZero is the one between Saber and Lancer. Both sides used many killing moves and had a lot of strategies."
“But in the end, in the entire “Fate Zero”, there is almost no fair and honest battle that ends smoothly. I hope that this “Fate Stay Night” can have a sufficiently exciting battle that can be fought from beginning to end.”
"By the way, will our Vice Captain Liya play Saber again this time? The Saber she played last time was so handsome. I really want to see it again."
"Well, who knows? But last time, the vice-captain, the knight commander, and many knights suddenly disappeared for a while. Could it be that they went to film a movie at that time?"
"Is this true? Knight Commander Wycliffe is also going to play a role?"
"If it's true, I think he would play a very old-fashioned character who is very indifferent to everything. After all, he is exactly like this in his daily life."
"What you said is that even if the Knight Commander is usually like this, he might be able to play some rather lively roles?"
"Are you sure?"
"… "
For a moment, the knights' voices rang out, and some of them complained about a certain Wycliffe.
They apparently did not notice that a certain knight commander had been looking at them from time to time, and secretly memorizing the appearance of the person who was speaking.
…
All in all, while audiences across the empire were already talking about the upcoming "Fate Stay Night", the movie itself was ready and was slowly being aired in front of everyone's eyes.
To the audience's surprise, the first scene of the movie was actually a scene from "Fate Zero".
In the picture, a shocking fire destroyed everything, and desperate people fell down in the flames, unable to get up again.
At the same time, Kiritsugu Emiya appeared again, searching and searching in the fire in confusion.
Finally, he found a surviving boy with an excited look on his face.
After a few years, Kiritsugu Emiya died quietly in the moonlight and left a last word for the boy, symbolizing the complete end of the previous era.
The boy he adopted grew up gradually and inherited Emiya Kiritsugu's surname.
His name is Emiya Shirou.
In this way, time passed little by little, and after a long, long time had passed since the last Holy Grail War, everything seemed to have calmed down completely, and all traces of the Holy Grail War had completely disappeared.
However, just ten years later, in the Cathedral Church, a voice that surprised everyone slowly rang out.
Kotomine Kirei stood in front of the church at night, looking at the candlelight calmly, slowly stating the rules of the Holy Grail War, and announcing that the Holy Grail War had begun again after a lapse of ten years.
At the same time, in a mansion that the audience was very familiar with, a girl in red clothes and black twin ponytails stood on a magic circle, slowly chanting words towards a vague place.
"Declare that you are under my command, and my destiny is attached to your sword. Respond to the call of the Holy Grail. Those who follow this will and truth, respond to me!"
"I am the one who accomplishes all good deeds in the world. I am the one who gathers all the evils in the world. I am entangled with the seven heavens of the three great word spirits."
"Come forth through the Wheel of Suppression! Guardian of the Scales!"
With a burst of red light lighting up the entire mansion, the story of "Fate Stay Night" finally officially began.
Chapter 392: "Fate Stay Night" Released (Part 3)
Chapter 392
The prologue of the movie "Fate Staynight" officially begins.
Seeing the strange yet familiar characters appearing on the screen, the audience felt confused and immediately exclaimed.
After all, although the appearance has changed, there is no doubt that the magnetic voice belongs to Kotomine Kirei, the last survivor of the last Holy Grail War.
"Why did Kotomine Kirei appear again? What's his situation now?!"
"I don't know, but no matter what, I'm afraid he will have a great impact on this Holy Grail War."
"By the way, doesn't the Holy Grail War happen every sixty years? Why is it so soon? Why is it happening again after only ten years?"
"Also, the boy adopted by Emiya Kiritsugu is called Emiya Shirou? Who is he?"
"Who is that girl in red with twin ponytails?"
"… "
For a moment, after reading this prologue, all kinds of questions lingered in the audience's heads, and everyone couldn't help but want to continue reading immediately to answer the many unclear questions in their hearts.
…
The story officially begins in a simple warehouse.
The red-haired boy Shirou Emiya seemed to have a distant dream. In the dream, he seemed to see a golden sword that was constantly shining.
However, the specific image of the sword was very vague, and Shirou could not see the specific appearance of the long sword no matter what.
"Senior...Senior..."
Suddenly, the girl's voice woke him up.
A girl with long purple hair appeared in front of Shirou.
"Good morning, Senior."
Hearing the other party's words, Shirou slowly got up from the ground and began to move while recalling, or rather narrating his life story.
Shirou Emiya has lived with Kiritsugu Emiya since he was adopted by him when he was a child. However, after five years of living together, Kiritsugu Emiya suddenly passed away, and he has been living alone in the house left behind by him.
Of course, he is not alone. The granddaughter of Fujimura Taiga, a gangster boss who is related to Emiya Kiritsugu, often comes to Shirou's house to take care of him. Of course, in a sense, she is just coming to eat for free.
It's not just Fujimura Taiga. Sakura, Shirou Emiya's junior at school, often comes to Emiya's house to help Shirou cook and do housework because of an incident a year ago.
These three people together make up the usual daily life of the Emiya family.
Next, Shirou Emiya went to school and, at the request of the student council president, Kazunari Yanagido, helped repair the heater in the student council room.
