At this moment, Mikaela also came downstairs looking refreshed. She looked at Emiya Kiritsugu and nodded slightly, saying, "This is the prime of his life."

"..." Emiya Kiritsugu silent. He looked at his trembling hand holding the cigarette and his legs that were shaking uncontrollably. You're telling me?! This is my prime?

"Master, this is how he sees it." Red A barely suppressed a laugh. After all, this was his father, and he couldn't laugh. If he did, his father, though he wouldn't use Command Seal, might very well hold a grudge against him.

Red A Emiya Kiritsugu grudge against him.

"I know." Emiya Kiritsugu a deep drag on his cigarette. He knew that Mikaela wasn't seeing things with her naked eye at the moment. In her eyes, he was probably in an unimaginably good condition.

Indeed, in Mikaela's eyes at this moment, Emiya Kiritsugu was emitting a very strong blue light, which proved that he had a lot of magic power at the moment, and had reached the saturation level.

Emiya Kiritsugu might be a little tired, his back hurts a bit, and his legs feel weak.

But this is a good thing, since this Holy Grail War is pretty much a contest of magical power. Whoever has enough magical power to support their Servant in fighting without restraint will win the war.

If Mikaela had accumulated sixty years of magical power, without hesitation, he summoned those Servant had consumed a lot of energy last night to see which one would respond to his summons!

Unfortunately, what can one do with only three years of magic power? It's not even enough for him to fight with all his might.

"Quickly, help me recover." Emiya Kiritsugu looked at Mikaela and said in a speechless tone, "My legs are so weak right now. It took a lot of effort for me to even walk out of here."

"Aren't you the Magus Killer? Have you given up training for the past three years?" Mikaela said sarcastically, then calmly crushed the card, a dandelion appearing in her hand, which she waved at Emiya Kiritsugu.

A green light descended upon Emiya Kiritsugu's head, restoring the 'things' he had consumed and significantly restoring his stamina.

"..." Red A's eyes narrowed slightly. Although he had known for a long time that this 'assistant' was not simple, after seeing the other party casually conjure a dandelion, a voice in his heart told him.

This child is terrifying!

Cough cough... No, it's that Mikaela is very powerful, because it seems that I can't copy the dandelion in her hand.

Copying the shell is relatively simple, but copying the functionality is obviously not very likely.

'Servant?'

In that instant, Red A seemed to understand, and he asked, "Are you also Servant who has obtained a physical body?"

"Hmm?" Emiya Kiritsugu looked at Red A with some confusion. He was puzzled as to why Archer could recognize Mikaela as Servant with a physical body at a glance, and... he even said "also"?

"Yes, I've been taken in." Mikaela wasn't surprised. He naturally knew that Red A was Emiya Shirou and had seen Gilgamesh, the pleasure-seeker.

Gilgamesh was in his physical form during the Fifth Holy Grail War, a fact that Emiya Shirou naturally remembers vividly.

"I won't go into the details. I need to continue summoning. If you want to hear about me, you should ask Kiritsugu."

Red A seemed to want to ask something more, but Mikaela didn't have time to argue with him. He could sense that it was around 7 p. m., and to avoid the situation from last night, he decided to go and summon right now.

They kept summoning until 6 a. m.! Mikaela couldn't do that; she couldn't draw upon anything with low mana consumption. No matter how strong you are, your mana consumption must be low!

If Stheno and Euryale could be summoned, that would be the best!!! Mikaela could then have a heart-to-heart talk with them right then and there.

However, the chances are extremely slim, so Mikaela can only hope that the person participating in this Holy Grail War has Holy Relic capable of summoning a god.

In any case, the Holy Grail's magical power is not particularly sufficient in this Holy Grail War. Even if the gods were to descend, they would only restrict themselves and their Master.

"Hmph hmph hmph." Seemingly thinking about a bright future, Mikaela didn't have much regret about last night's 'failed' summoning. He jogged towards the location he had pre-summoned.

"..." Looking at Mikaela's back, Red A felt a little helpless. Why did he always feel that this Servant had been taken in by flesh seemed to trust him very much?

While this sense of reassurance is pleasant, they don't really know each other... Even Kiritsugu, whom I trust, is now on my guard.

"Master, can you tell me about that Servant?" Red A looked at Emiya Kiritsugu, who had recovered some of his strength. His legs were no longer shaking, and his hand holding the cigarette was no longer trembling slightly.

"Let's have a drink first. Although I haven't had a drink in a long time, we naturally need to drink while telling a story." Emiya Kiritsugu felt better and didn't plan to go back to his room. The only thing he could do was let Irisviel see that he had returned to 'normal,' otherwise he would probably be in trouble.

"Haha, okay." Red A showed a very bright smile. He also wanted to drink with Kiritsugu, but as a Servant, he would not get drunk.

However, drinking with his father was also a good thing for him, because... he really missed Kiritsugu. The other man had saved him from the fire, and the smile on his face when he rescued him was a sight he would never forget.

"That's a short but profound story. I'll tell you most of the details about that Servant, but for my own sake, I won't tell you about his true power."

Indeed, Emiya Kiritsugu still harbored some wariness towards Red A. Although sharing information was normal, Emiya Kiritsugu would not play his biggest trump card without fully understanding the other party's situation.

Mikaela is the biggest trump card to save Illya in this Holy Grail War!

Chapter 166 Finally Summoned

Upon arriving at the familiar summoning circle, Mikaela once again set up a barrier to dispel ordinary people, preventing any ordinary people from interfering when she summoned her Servant.

While the chances of this happening are practically nonexistent, since Mikaela summons Servant sparsely populated areas, unless it's a couple having sex in the wild, they would never find such a place.

But even if it's a one in ten thousand, you can't be too afraid of the unexpected. If an ordinary person saw this scene, they would probably be at a loss and call the police, which would definitely lead to the other party's death. Similarly, the location of himself and Kiritsugu would also likely be exposed.

If I could summon Servant, that would be fine, but since I haven't summoned Servant yet, I'll have to stay here a little longer. So it's better to set up a barrier to dispel ordinary people for now.

After all, the magic power consumed to banish a barrier from an ordinary person is only the size of a fingernail.

After setting up the barrier, Mikaela began summoning. He refused to believe that the ones who would respond to him tonight would be those high-cost Servant again!

"Announce!"

Magic began to gather, Mikaela was once again enveloped by the blue light emanating from the beads on her wristband. This time... it was another high-consumption event.

"Grass!"

Mikaela couldn't help but curse. This time the energy consumption was lower than last night, but who the hell responded to him?! People with high energy consumption should have been eliminated last night.

"Is someone summoning me?" In Hall of Heroes, a burly man with a towering physique opened his eyes, holding an axe-sword, ready to answer his Master's summons.

Then... the summoning sound disappeared.

"Ah! Even with me like this, you're still willing to summon me? Sure! Mommy will wipe out all the enemies for you~"

A woman with an extremely voluptuous figure, seemingly both crying and laughing, gripped her katana tightly upon receiving the summons, preparing to respond to her beloved Master.

"Huh?"

The summoning voice disappeared, the smile vanished from the woman's face, and tears streamed down her cheeks as she sobbed, "So that's how it is. I really am an unwanted existence. Ah... such a demonic mother, does the Master not need her?"

"Ah~ Did you summon me~ How cute~ How dare you summon a ghost! Although I have no wishes, since you've summoned me~ there's nothing I can do about it." A loli dressed in a very sexy way, with a childlike appearance and two gourds hanging from her waist, revealed a very charming smile.

She is an existence that is virtually impossible to summon. Since someone has successfully summoned her, as a 'demon', she must respond to the other party's existence and see what kind of person her Master really is.

The price of summoning a demon isn't just magic power; you have to pay a much higher price.

Perhaps having guessed what the little girl was thinking, the summoning was interrupted.

"Oh my~ This is really interesting. I'd like to go down and take a look." The little girl wasn't angry at all. Instead, she showed a very interested smile and wanted to go down and see for herself who the guy who summoned her was.

Five hours passed quickly, Mikaela was already somewhat numb. If his situation hadn't prevented him from summoning high-level Servant, he would have wanted to summon those high-cost Servant directly and give her a command!

Commit suicide!!! Servant!!!

If it was a compatibility summon from the beginning, then after so many summons, a large number of the best compatible Servant should have already been lost.

Servant with good compatibility or a destined connection have been taken by Mikaela. Next should be random summoning. I've been trying random summoning for so long, knocking on the doors of countless Heroic Spirit, but I still can't get any weak Servant with low mana consumption!

"That's terrible."

Red A, who was drinking with Emiya Kiritsugu in the distance, was using his Clairvoyance to observe the summoning situation on Mikaela's side.

It wasn't that he intentionally wanted to see, but the magical fluctuations emanating from the other party were too conspicuous. He had just been summoned last night, and although he sensed some magical fluctuations nearby, he didn't pay much attention to them. Instead, he quickly checked his surroundings.

After finding no danger, he stood reassured by Emiya Kiritsugu's bedside, looking at his elderly father, his mind drifting into memories.

That's why Red A overlooked Mikaela's summoning wave yesterday; now his attention is focused on Mikaela, and he's discovered that she wasn't lying.

Even from that distance, he could clearly see that the bracers in the other person's hand, used to test the Servant's mana consumption, were flashing with intense light without stopping for a moment.

The authenticity of this bracer has been confirmed; it can indeed be used to observe the extent to which Servant's mana is depleted.

Even just the present world would consume so much energy! This made Red A twitch, not understanding what kind of being this Servant named 'Mikaela' was in her previous life.

This 'fate' is somewhat terrifying; it keeps summoning itself, and so many Servant with extremely high mana consumption respond.

There was a one-hour break in the middle of the process. If we were to be conservative, the Servant responded to Mikaela's summons were probably all of very high level, and most of them were probably top-tier or first-class Heroic Spirit.

"Um?!"

Suddenly, Red A narrowed his eyes. He saw it: the light on Mikaela's wristband had shrunk! It had become extremely small!!!

Compared to the light that had previously enveloped his entire body, the light now only covered half of his body at most.

"They're here!!!" Red A suddenly said. Emiya Kiritsugu also seemed to notice something, patted his face to force himself to wake up, and then casually picked up the tactical binoculars next to him and looked in Mikaela's direction.

"Your body is entrusted to my command, and my fate is tied to your sword."

"Respond to the call of the Holy Grail, heed this will and this reason, answer me!"

"I am the one who accomplishes all good deeds in the world, and I am the one who gathers all evils in the world..."

"Seven days of being entangled in the three great spiritual words."

"Break through the Wheel of Suppression, appear!"

"Guardian of Libra..."

Mikaela was also thrilled. How many times had she waited?! How many times had she waited?! She had finally waited for Servant with such low energy consumption to appear!!!

"Responding to the summons." The Servant appeared in the summoning circle wore a skull mask and a black cloak. He wrapped his right arm in bandages, slowly raised his head, and looked at his Master.

"!!!!"

Seemingly sensing something, this Servant, who looked like he could frighten a child, shuddered, quickly took a few steps back, then knelt on one knee and said very seriously, "My Master, my name is Hassan of the Arm, and I will bring you victory from now on."

My wife!. jpg

Chapter 167 I understand!

Hassan of the Arm?

Looking at the masked, black-robed Servant in front of him, Mikaela smiled, a rare occurrence. He had drawn a good hand.

It was worth the time he spent summoning the Servant. Although Hassan of the Arm is very weak in 1v1 battles, Hassan is something that needs a master to use!

In the Fourth Holy Grail War, Hassan of the Hundred Faces possessed extremely strong intelligence gathering abilities. If this card had not been taken by Kotomine Kirei, but by Emiya Kiritsugu, then... the consequences would likely have been dire.

In the Fifth Holy Grail War, Hassan of the Arm followed Matou Zouken and achieved many brilliant victories. Judging from the strength of the Servant, Hassan could only be considered a second-rate Servant.

However, he once pushed a top-tier Heroic Spirit like Artoria to the brink of despair. Although Artoria was extremely frustrated at that time, her Master was out of mana and she herself could not use her Noble Phantasm without restraint. Coupled with various unfavorable factors, this led to her being tricked by Hassan of the Arm.

However, Hassan's intelligence and ability to utilize every advantage to fight against Artoria's Hassan of the Arm should not be underestimated.

"Victory? My goal is not victory, but to obtain the Spirit Origin of a Servant." Mikaela spoke up. Although he knew that Hassan of the Arm was a loyal and righteous person, he would not trust him so easily.

As soon as he opened his mouth, he stated his goal. He looked at Hassan of the Arm and said calmly, "Moreover, if you have a wish to grant the Holy Grail, then I can only apologize, because this time the Holy Grail is unable to perform the 'wish' function due to insufficient magic power."

"So that's how it is. Does it require Servant's Spirit Origin to heal one's injuries?" Hassan of the Arm also sensed the strangeness about Mikaela.

In his eyes, Mikaela herself had a very strong aura, but he could sense that something was missing from her.

This is an injury, an injury called a curse. Although I don't know why my Master suffered this injury, if it's about getting Spirit Origin, then anyone can have it.

"That's right."

Mikaela nodded slightly, then calmly said, "However, I need Divine Spirit Core, so you don't need to rush to commit suicide."

"It seems I still have some use in the mortal world." Hassan of the Arm seemed to be smiling. He had indeed just considered committing suicide and offering his Spirit Origin to his Master.

After all, it was his duty to dedicate his Spirit Origin to someone connected to the First Generation Master!

When he first appeared, Hassan of the Arm shuddered the moment he saw Mikaela. This familiar shudder was definitely not caused by the cold.

It was the trembling feeling he experienced upon 'having the honor' to meet the First Generation Master, a feeling that no one could imitate! Therefore, Hassan of the Arm immediately became certain! His Master must have had a very close relationship with the First Generation Master!

For this reason, he is willing to give everything to help the other party!

"Hmm... the mana consumption isn't particularly high." Mikaela nodded. He glanced at the Lesser Holy Grail near his heart, where a small amount of mana was missing, but that small amount was only enough for half a month's worth of mana consumption.

If it's a battle, it's better to end it quickly. Use Judas to imprison the enemy, and then have Hassan of the Arm use his Noble Phantasm Zabaniya 'Zabaniya'. Most Servant can be killed instantly.

"Come with me, we have allies this time."

After briefly testing Hassan of the Arm, Mikaela felt he could initially trust him, so he led him toward Emiya Kiritsugu.

"An ally? Servant? If he's Servant, then he's already here."

Hassan of the Arm, wielding several short swords, looked into the distance, clearly not abandoning his Master's protection because of his Master's words.

Even allies can betray you, so he won't do that unless he's absolutely certain the other party is harmless!

"How."

Under Red A's protection, a slightly drunk Emiya Kiritsugu approached. He looked at Hassan of the Arm, who was holding a short sword beside Mikaela, and calmly asked, "Is this Hassan of the Hundred Faces?"
