While Cu Chulainn, Sakura, and Shinji were explaining, the church's supervisor walked to the front of the Sky Boat, the most prominent position, and gave a public speech to everyone.
"Good evening, everyone. Those who have registered with the church should know me, but there are many who have not registered. Here, let me introduce myself again - my name is Fiore, and I am the supervisor of this Holy Grail War assigned by the Holy Church."
Just one sentence made Coles dumbfounded.
Sister, sister, you actually joined the Templar Church and became the supervisor of the Holy Grail War
Shinji was also a little dumbfounded. Although it was not the same world line, it was too far off - except for an outlier like Heine, how many magicians from a magician family would join the church
As for Fiore's best friend Luvia, she had already been shocked.
Fiore's eyes swept across the faces of several people without leaving a trace, and the corners of her mouth raised a barely perceptible arc: "First of all, please allow me to apologize for interrupting your battle at such a critical moment. If possible, I don't want to, but because of the emergency, I have to-"
"Don't talk nonsense like that." Gilgamesh interrupted without any hesitation, "Don't add to my unhappiness."
Fiore remained calm and said, "Let's get straight to the point. This is the path that can fulfill everyone's long-cherished wish. The Holy Grail War is now facing a huge crisis. The Holy Grail is a treasure that belongs to human nature, and it will only share its power with humans who pursue the Holy Grail. However, this treasure has been targeted by a monster called the 'Dead Apostles' who distorts human nature."
"The Templar Church's nose is still as sharp as ever, and so is their ability to win people over." Loreleija said indifferently.
"Isn't it the same for Barthelmero?" Fiore responded lightly, "At least in this regard, we should stand on the same front. Even if we can't become allies, we should avoid making enemies."
Lorelea snorted in acknowledgment.
Fiore continued, "According to our investigation, these monsters have attacked Masters and Servants many times, intending to obtain the Command Seals and snatch the Servants. It is certain that a pair of Masters and Servants have become the bait of these monsters."
"Darius III..."
Anger was evident on Iskandar's face, and he remembered what Nero Chaos had said.
"This is not only a violation of the rules, but also a provocation to the Holy Grail War itself and even humanity itself. Those monsters and their collaborators are not only the enemies of the Holy Church or you personally, but also a major threat to the Holy Grail itself. Therefore, I will use the authority of the Supervisor in extraordinary times to temporarily change the rules of the Holy Grail War. All masters and servants will immediately stop fighting each other and do their best to annihilate the 'Dead Apostles' and their collaborators!"
"... "Silence fell.
No one spoke. Some people lowered their heads to think, some had changing expressions, and of course there were also some who looked hesitant.
I don't know how much time passed, but someone finally spoke. It was Weber.
"May I ask what benefit we can gain from doing this? It's not that I don't believe what the Supervisor said, but it will allow the Supervisor to use her authority to change the rules. I believe the enemy is very powerful, and the people in charge of the crusade will also take considerable risks. If there is no certain incentive mechanism, I think many people here will be passive and lazy."
Most magicians are selfish, and it is useless to talk to them about righteousness. If they are asked to take risks and work, they must be paid a certain amount of money. The risks here are not only the dangers of conquering the Dead Apostles, but also the risks of exposing intelligence or being taken advantage of by others after the expedition.
"I participated in the last Holy Grail War. There were also people who violated the rules. The supervisor at the time gave out extra Command Seals as rewards."
"I see. Since there is a precedent, I will follow suit."
Hearing Waver's words, Fiore nodded thoughtfully—she pulled open her sleeve, revealing her right forearm.
The skin was as smooth as any Shinji had seen before, but no one had the heart to appreciate it. Everyone was attracted by the red patterns engraved on it.
There was no doubt that it was the Command Seal. Although there were not many strokes, it was not difficult to tell from the uneven arrangement that it was not a Command Seal possessed by a single Master.
"It has been found that there are four targets that need to be conquered. Two of them are the Dead Apostles, namely Chaos; Nero Chaos and Akasha Snake; and Michel Roa Fatanyan. The other two are the barrier master Araya Soren and his Servant Assassin, whose real names are currently unknown. If you conquer any of the above targets, I will give you one additional Command Seal. If you conquer together, you will get one additional Command Seal. If you find any additional ones, I will make a judgment at my discretion. When the threat is eliminated, the Holy Grail War will resume."
After saying that, Fiore lowered her sleeves and let out a light breath.
"Those who have questions can ask them. If you don't have any questions, please act as soon as possible."
Problems? Of course there are.
Let's not talk about why she appeared here and why she became a supervisor. What Shinji wanted to know most was where did the Command Seals in Fiore's hand come from? Obviously, all the Command Seals in Li Zheng's hand were in his hands. If he hadn't been able to sense the magic power contained in them, Shinji would have even thought it was fake. As for why he also sensed Roa's existence, he was not surprised. The Church's means of finding vampires were the best in the world, not to mention that they had been keeping an eye on Roa for a long time.
But he couldn't ask this question. He could only watch other masters and servants communicating with Fiore, expressing their attitudes, or seeking information. Shinji felt very uncomfortable.
"Don't think about unnecessary problems. Think about what you should do now." Scathach, who saw through everything, reminded in a low voice.
What to do? Of course, kill Roa and his gang.
Whether from Elquet's standpoint, Lorelei's standpoint, or for himself and Yustisa, these troublemakers must die.
Others had similar ideas. No matter where they were, people who disrupted things would never be welcome.
After Iskandar expressed his attitude first, the rest of the masters and servants also expressed their agreement one after another. Just when the situation was developing in the direction Fiore wanted to see, a sharp sneer suddenly rang out.
"Hahahahaha."
It was Gilgamesh. Only this extremely self-centered guy would not care about the atmosphere and other people's opinions. Even if Rin said, "Archer, I have already agreed. This is not only the duty of the church supervisor, but also the responsibility of the local manager."
"Cleaning the garden is the job of the gardener. I am not interested in such trivial matters. But I don't want to delay my enjoyment. Little girl who claims to be the supervisor, your method is too rigid and inefficient. If you keep doing this, the mice will stay in the burrows forever. Do you want everyone to dig holes with you?"
The fact is just as Gilgamesh said, he was blocked once by Lorelea and beaten up by Shinji again. These guys would not show up easily if they have any brains, and it is like looking for a needle in a haystack if you really want to find them, especially when there are other vampires lurking nearby.
"I wonder what the King of Heroes has to say?" Fiore asked humbly.
At this time, some people started to react and wondered, this weird guy - was he making suggestions in this way
Gilgamesh seemed to enjoy the feeling of being the center of attention, showing his signature happy expression.
"Hold a banquet, a banquet that is even grander than the one we had ten years ago!"
"...
"... "
"... "
"Huh?"
Is this guy's brain broken
PS: I suddenly felt a little sorry for Sakura. I liked her so much that I wanted to give her more roles, but in the end, she still became a passerby. Is Sakura really cursed? The curse of the purple-haired female passerby
