Chapter 147 Good luck!

"We've finally arrived here."

Upon arriving in Romania, Mikaela took a deep breath. As he was about to participate in the Second Holy Grail War, it was impossible for him not to feel pressure.

After all, he had the most information in the Fourth Holy Grail War, and he calculated everything... In the end, various unexpected events occurred, forcing him to expose his strength, and he only managed to win by chance.

The final battle with Gilgamesh was truly a stroke of luck. If it weren't for his incredibly fast sword strikes, the King of Heroes might very well have been summoned back by Tohno Shiro.

If this outcome does occur, then Mikaela will likely have to face a truly serious Gilgamesh next.

Therefore, Mikaela's victory in the Fourth Holy Grail War was truly a stroke of luck.

"Hello."

Since the Holy Grail War had not yet fully begun, Mikaela arrived at an inn and, looking at the staff, asked calmly, "Are there any spare rooms?"

"Yes, we do." The waiter smiled, although Mikaela's attire looked a bit strange at the moment. She was wearing a simple maid outfit and sunglasses, and she looked 'strange' from any angle.

However, being someone who does this job, the waiter was very polite and asked, "How many people are there in total?"

"One person, staying for three days." Mikaela took out her bank card and handed it to the waiter, saying, "You can pay by card."

"Understood." The waiter took Mikaela's bank card, swiped it, and returned it to her, saying very respectfully, "Please follow me."

"Thank you for your trouble." Mikaela nodded gently, and with the help of the staff, he quickly arrived at a small room.

"Then, please tell me what's wrong."

The waiter quickly left. Mikaela didn't say much. He closed the door and then took out a cell phone to dial someone's number.

"Hello, this is the Garan no Dou. May I ask how I can help you?"

A very gentle voice came from the phone, and just by hearing that voice, Mikaela knew who it belonged to.

"I'm looking for Touko, Fujino, let her answer the phone," Mikaela said calmly. "I've run into some trouble and need her help."

"Eh? Aila-chan?"

On the other end of the phone, Asagami Fujino seemed somewhat surprised and delighted. She hadn't expected that the person calling would be Mikaela.

"She's temporarily out on business. Is there anything I can help you with?"

Soon, the phone seemed to be taken away, and a rather assertive female voice came through.

"..." Mikaela was silent. Why was it Ryougi Shiki who answered his call?

"What? Not saying anything?" Ryougi Shiki saw that Mikaela was silent and seemed a little displeased. She said coldly, "That woman went to find a partner for some 'Spirit Origin'. If nothing unexpected happens, she won't be back for at least a week. We will take over here temporarily."

"Tsk." Mikaela pursed his lips. He hadn't expected things to be so coincidental.

He sought out Aozaki Touko to use her connections to investigate information related to the Holy Grail War.

Although he had learned some information from Waver, the other party's relationship with him was never particularly good. He could listen to small pieces of information, but if he knew the big pieces of information...

Mikaela would then doubt whether the information Waver gave her was correct or incorrect.

Intelligence is always a necessity.

Although according to current information, Mikaela is like a bug in the system, and barring any unforeseen circumstances, she is a sure winner.

But then another problem arises: there's no such thing as a sure win in this world. Look at Wang Mang and Liu Xiu. The former thought he had it all figured out and that he could just recklessly charge ahead, only to be punished by the world! The final result was utterly tragic.

"Not going to talk anymore? Hmm?" Ryougi Shiki 'Ryougi Shiki tone seemed a little impatient. Since Aozaki Touko left, things have become less busy lately, and she's feeling a bit bored here.

The only thing that she found interesting was probably the maid who had stayed there for a week.

A voice inside Ryougi Shiki was telling her that the other person was very interesting! So interesting that she could kill him.

For this reason, in order to avoid hurting the other person with her inner impulses, Ryougi Shiki didn't communicate much with Mikaela during that week.

Furthermore, since the other party came to seek medical treatment, attacking a patient would be rather unseemly. Therefore, Ryougi Shiki hopes that Touko can heal Mikaela and prepares to fight the other party!

However, to Ryougi Shiki's surprise... Mikaela's illness was not cured by Touko, and after learning that the Holy Grail War would be held at the Clock Tower, she left in a hurry.

At that time, Ryougi Shiki was still suppressing her emotions. She kept telling herself that this was a good thing, that the other person leaving was a good thing, so that she wouldn't have to struggle with fighting a patient anymore.

The next day, when she couldn't see Mikaela at the Garan no Dou, Ryougi Shiki finally couldn't contain her emotions anymore; she regretted it!

She should have picked up a weapon and fought with the other party. That way, whether she won or lost, she would feel a little better.

"You can't do it."

Mikaela, of course, had no idea Ryougi Shiki was thinking. He sighed. Now that Touko had temporarily left Garan no Dou, he would have to rely on his own methods to find information.

"Hey?! Don't hang up!!" Ryougi Shiki seemed to understand something and said quite loudly, "What exactly do you want from that guy Touko? Is it for help?! If it's that, I can do that too."

"..."

Mikaela didn't speak. He silently hung up the phone. Although he knew that Ryougi Shiki was very strong, and the Root Shiki within her was even more terrifying, that referred to combat, not intelligence gathering.

Even her future husband wouldn't dare to extend his reach into Romania!

Thinking of this, Mikaela sighed helplessly and could only dial another number that she didn't want to call.

To be honest, in Mikaela's memory, there is only one person who can surpass Waver and Aozaki Touko in terms of intelligence.

"Hello?! Hello?!!!!"

Ryougi Shiki, furious at being hung up on, wanted nothing more than to cut the phone into seventeen pieces!

"Fine! Very well!! You're not going to tell me, right? Then I'll go myself!" Asagami Fujino Ryougi Shiki Fujino beside her and gritted her teeth, saying, "I remember, a month ago, Touko was constantly harassed by spam calls, so she researched Magic Crest that could track phone numbers. Come with me! I still remember where that Magic Crest is."

'Isn't this a bit inappropriate?'

Asagami Fujino wanted to say that, but she was similar to Ryougi Shiki in that she really wanted to see Mikaela one more time.

Unlike Ryougi Shiki, who wanted to fight Mikaela, Asagami Fujino simply wanted to stay with Mikaela.

That night...

It was the night that Mikaela and Asagami Fujino first met. Although Mikaela said several times that she was a man, Asagami Fujino did not believe her at all.

Although the other party eventually proved that he was male with 'facts', that night was the best night Asagami Fujino slept. Although it may sound a bit sentimental, it is indeed the truth.

Asagami Fujino didn't know how to express that feeling; she wanted to thank Mikaela.

If it weren't for the other person, I would most likely still be in school, pretending to be an 'ordinary student' and then having to pretend to be a normal person who can feel pain.

That kind of life was just too tiring. After gaining the ability to feel pain, Asagami Fujino felt for the first time how wonderful life was, so she was very grateful to Mikaela for bringing her here.

This is another world that originally did not belong to her.

"I understand." Asagami Fujino smiled gently and looked at Ryougi Shiki, saying, "Is there anything I can help you with?"

"Hmm?" Ryougi Shiki Asagami Fujino with some confusion. After spending the last few days together, she had a pretty good idea that the other was the kind of obedient girl who was timid and submissive. She should definitely stop her from saying those words.

Could it be?

Ryougi Shiki patted Asagami Fujino shoulder and calmly said, "Good luck."

"?" Asagami Fujino was puzzled, not understanding what Ryougi Shiki was talking about.

Chapter 148 Charging with the Ball

Mikaela was unaware that Ryougi Shiki and Asagami Fujino were about to arrive; he had already dialed another person's number.

Few people know this phone number; if anyone does, it's probably only Irisviel and Maiya Hisau.

That's right, Mikaela is about to contact an old friend named Emiya Kiritsugu.

"Hello, Jiuyu family."

The call was answered quickly, and a cold female voice came from the phone, leaving Mikaela completely bewildered. What the heck? He was calling Emiya Kiritsugu, wasn't he?

During the Fourth Holy Grail War, he dialed this number countless times using Irisviel's phone. Even though he was blind, he would never have entered the wrong number.

"Maiya Hisau?" Mikaela seemed to remember Maiya Hisau's full name and asked tentatively, "Is it you?"

"Your voice?"

On the other end of the phone, Maiya Hisau frowned slightly. She felt that the voice sounded familiar, but she couldn't remember who it was for a moment.

"Saber." Now that things have come to this, Mikaela no longer intends to hide her identity.

"!!!!!"

Almost instantly, Maiya Hisau hung up the phone. She didn't think the person on the other end was 'the dead Saber,' but rather someone from the Clock Tower.

Since the Fourth Holy Grail War, Emiya Kiritsugu has given up on being Magus Killer and has gone into seclusion with Irisviel, Maiya Hisau, and Illya.

However, his seclusion is a good thing for other Magecraft, but some people believe that Emiya Kiritsugu still has many secrets.

Ever since Matou Zouken told the Clock Tower everything about the Holy Grail War, a group of people have been eyeing Tohno Shiro, a group of people have been eyeing the history of the Holy Grail War, and a group of people... have been eyeing Emiya Kiritsugu, who is closest to the Holy Grail.

That's right, Emiya Kiritsugu is being targeted. A preliminary investigation reveals that the target is a large family from the Emiya Kiritsugu Clock Tower.

Although Maiya Hisau and Emiya Kiritsugu were not afraid of any powerful families, they were already preparing to retire and clearly did not want to continue fighting.

The key to getting Emiya Kiritsugu and Maiya Hisau put aside their fighting spirit was the child Illya.

For this angelic child, even the outwardly cold-hearted Maiya Hisau is willing to give everything for her.

"..."

Mikaela remained silent. He had just hung up the phone with Ryougi Shiki, only to have his former 'colleague' hang up on him right afterward, leaving him with very mixed feelings.

"Sigh." Mikaela sighed and dialed 'Emiya Kiritsugu's' number again, but this time, it was simply 'the phone is switched off'.

"This is really a headache, but thankfully I remembered Irisviel's phone number." Mikaela rubbed his temples, realizing for the first time that having a good memory was a great thing.

If he cannot contact Emiya Kiritsugu, then he will probably only have a 70% chance of winning this Holy Grail War.

A 70% chance of winning seems like a lot, but in the Fourth Holy Grail War, Mikaela has a 90% chance of winning!

Ninety percent certainty, threety percent Master isn't brain-dead, threety percent sufficient magical power, threety percent ample intelligence, threety percent Gilgamesh isn't serious.

Even with a 90% chance of success, Mikaela almost messed things up!

With a 70% chance of success this time, Mikaela decided to seize all the advantages: intelligence, strength, and magic! She couldn't afford to lose any of them!

The truth is that you must rely on yourself in everything.

"Hello?" Irisviel's gentle voice came from the phone. She seemed puzzled as to why someone other than Kiritsugu was calling her old phone.

Could it be one of those harassing phone calls? Are they trying to sell you houses or tutoring classes for kids?

"Irisviel, it's me, Mikaela. Don't hang up on me yet. I didn't die in the Fourth Holy Grail War; I survived by sheer luck."

Learning from Maiya Hisau's experience, Mikaela wised up and immediately said everything she wanted to say.

This left Irisviel, who had just finished showering and was waiting for Emiya Kiritsugu to return, completely bewildered. She looked at her phone, then at the towel on her body, and fell into a brief moment of contemplation.

Was it because I had too much fun with Kiritsugu last night that I'm still dreaming, and because I miss Saber, that cute little boy, so much that I had this dream?

She was supposed to die in the Fourth Holy Grail War, but thanks to Mikaela's 'help,' she was freed from 'the Holy Grail'.

Irisviel felt she could never repay this kindness to that lovely Saber in her entire life.

"Am I dreaming?" Irisviel murmured to herself. She felt like she was dreaming, having a beautiful dream called "I Called the Throne of Heroes".

"... Yes, you're dreaming. Go and Replenish Magic with Emiya Kiritsugu. It'll take three days and three nights to do that." Mikaela said helplessly. Why is it that after three years, Irisviel is still so clueless?

"That won't do! Although I'm willing to do it, Kiritsugu is already very tired." Irisviel immediately retorted, as if she had returned to three years ago, and continued, "Ever since that Replenish Magic, Kiritsugu seems to have developed a resistance to this. Although he still does it sometimes, he is unwilling to do it in the long run."

"... I'm participating in the Holy Grail War. Let Kiritsugu speak. I need his help."

Mikaela didn't want to continue arguing with Irisviel. He was really afraid that Maiya Hisau would suddenly burst in and shout, "Madam, this person is not Saber at all!"

Then, with a click, the phone was switched off again.

"Oh, Kiritsugu is downstairs. Wait a moment while I get dressed... Never mind!! I'll just go out. It's not like I haven't seen him before. Illya went out to play with Maiya too."

Irisviel realized that this was not a dream, so she decisively picked up the phone and, without caring whether her towel would fall off, ran downstairs.

At this moment, Emiya Kiritsugu was watching foreign news. He held a notebook and pen, seemingly writing something down. His expression was unusually serious, occasionally showing a troubled look, and sometimes a happy look, making it impossible to guess what he was up to.

"Kiritsugu! Kiritsugu!!"

Irisviel came down excitedly, and she pounced on him. Before Emiya Kiritsugu could react, he felt two round things stick to his back, and then he felt himself being knocked away.

He was knocked to the ground by his wife, which made Emiya Kiritsugu show a rather painful expression.
