On the Eve of the Summoning / The Operation Begins!

Because Gae Bulg, Mikaela died from exhaustion of energy. He was afraid... He became more careful with his energy, so he would never waste it meaninglessly unless it was a matter of life and death.

"Hey! Hey! Hey!! That's not fair!!" Cú Chulainn watched as the Gae Bulg in his hand disappeared, seemingly trying to stop Mikaela; he wasn't done playing yet!!

"Ahem, Little Master is tired. Mr. Cú Chulainn, why don't you go fishing?"

Hassan of the Arm and Hassan of the Hundred Faces once again blocked Cú Chulainn, brandishing fishing rods and buckets.

"Perfect timing, let's go fishing together. It's a bit embarrassing to just sit around doing nothing." Bazett nodded as well. She was also going fishing, although she had some money on her, but it was funds given to her by the Clock Tower.

Funds cannot be misappropriated. Bazett is a very upright person, so Bazett is prepared to obtain food through his own efforts!

For example, you can go fishing to get fresh fish, or see if there is any fresh seafood in the nearby river.

And so, Cú Chulainn was taken away by Bazett, and Mikaela was also preparing to make a summoning circle.

"By the way, how did you summon Kiyohime?" After returning to the house, Mikaela found Asagami Fujino and asked her how she summoned Kiyohime.

"Huh?"

Asagami Fujino Mikaela suddenly spoke to her. She looked into Mikaela's eyes, which were usually closed, although she had seen him open them before.

But at that time, Mikaela's eyes looked so dull and lifeless.

But now it's different. Now Mikaela's eyes look very pure, giving people a very comfortable feeling.

"Um..." Asagami Fujino blushed slightly, as if she had thought of something. She turned her head and whispered, "It's summoned by drawing a summoning circle with chalk and then chanting a spell."

"Chalk?" Mikaela exclaimed in surprise. He really hadn't expected that a True Magic circle drawn with chalk could summon Servant.

When he summoned Hassan of the Arm, he used his own blood to draw a True Magic circle, and then summoned the Servant after nightfall.

"What's wrong? Is there something wrong?" Asagami Fujino sat on the bed, looking at Mikaela, a rare moment of nervousness creeping into her heart.

"No, there's nothing wrong with it."

Mikaela exclaimed, "I think it's quite efficient. If I had known, I wouldn't have used blood to summon Servant. Servant used chalk like you."

At this point, Mikaela looked at Asagami Fujino and smiled, "So, do you have any extra chalk on you?"

"Um...yes." Asagami Fujino went to her suitcase and silently opened it.

Mikaela came closer, looked at Asagami Fujino's clothes, and said with some surprise, "You didn't bring much stuff."

"Um... I just came here to see you briefly, and then I'm going back."

Asagami Fujino nodded slightly. Her suitcase contained only two sets of clothes to change into and two sets of underwear, which was quite standard.

"In a way, it's quite daring." Mikaela looked at the black lingerie, not expecting that Asagami Fujino, a girl with an innocent appearance, would buy such daring lingerie.

However, Mikaela soon noticed a small corner inside the suitcase where there was a bag of chalk.

Asagami Fujino also handed the bag of chalk to Mikaela, which she had bought at a specialty store after learning about the gift from Touko.

Since she wasn't sure if it would work, she bought a whole pack, since it wasn't expensive anyway.

"Hmm, it seems to be just ordinary chalk." Mikaela took out a piece of chalk and infused it with magic. The chalk did not exhibit any unusual behavior, so it seemed to be just ordinary chalk.

"Then let's go draw the summoning circle together."

Seeing that Asagami Fujino was just sitting in the room anyway, Mikaela took her hand and ran downstairs.

"Huh?" Asagami Fujino looked at the hand that was being held and followed it involuntarily. At this moment, she seemed to understand what Kiyohime had said.

"Don't stop me!!!"

After Mikaela and Asagami Fujino left, Kiyohime was stopped again, this time by Red A, Hassan of the Arm, Hassan of the Hundred Faces, and Red Hare.

"Other couples are a perfect match, what are you going there for?"

Red A was speechless. Anyone with eyes could see that Asagami Fujino clearly had feelings for Mikaela. Didn't Kiyohime understand that?

"That's right, that's right, we are people of the past." Hassan of the Arm nodded, his tone very serious. "After this Holy Grail War ends, we will inevitably disappear from this world."

"I can do it too!! I can be a victim too!!" Kiyohime shouted in dissatisfaction.

"Impossible." Red A shook his head, his tone very serious. "According to the procedure, although this Holy Grail has the function of granting wishes, your wish to be born into the flesh requires at least ten years of accumulated magical power. Do you want everyone to wait for you for ten years?"

"If that happens, Mr. Emiya's daughter will probably be dead," Hassan of the Arm said in a low voice. "I'm sure the Little Master won't live to see that happen."

"So, you'd better give up quickly," Red Hare with a smile.

"Aaaaaaah!!!"

Kiyohime continued to be frantic, but she was powerless to do anything about it. She couldn't possibly betray Lord Anchin, but if things continued like this, she would definitely lose in love!

"Got it!"

Suddenly, Kiyohime had a flash of inspiration. She smiled gently and said, "I understand. Then I won't stop them."

Chapter 212 The Eve of the Summoning

Once outside, Mikaela drew a Servant summoning circle with chalk. He turned to Asagami Fujino and asked, "Is this how it is?"

"Well... I drew it a little smaller than this one."

Asagami Fujino fiddled with her hair, looking embarrassed. The summoning circle she had drawn was much, much smaller than this one.

"About how small?" Mikaela asked somewhat nonchalantly, since in his memory, even the smallest summoning circle was just that small.

"It's about that small."

Asagami Fujino casually picked up a stone from the side and drew a circle around it, roughly big enough for one person to stand in.

"???"

This made Mikaela's lips twitch slightly. So small??? How could this possibly allow Servant to emerge from the summoning circle? Wouldn't they find the passage cramped?

"However, being able to summon it is quite impressive." After finishing drawing the Servant summoning circle, Mikaela clapped his hands and looked at Asagami Fujino with a smile, "But you've also grown quite a bit."

Mikaela was naturally aware of Asagami Fujino's current condition; she had no magic power within her body, but instead used her Mystic Eyes to form a contract with Kiyohime.

The power of her Mystic Eyes, which she had suppressed for so many years, was enough for Kiyohime to use her power recklessly.

"Hmm." Asagami Fujino nodded silently, then looked at Mikaela and said softly, "Aila-chan, what were you like in the past?"

"Me?" Mikaela Asagami Fujino and chuckled, "Nothing much, just an ordinary life. I lived with my parents when I was a child."

"But one day, my dad passed away. My mom told me that he had gone to become a real hero, so he couldn't come home for the time being."

"Later, my mom made some mistakes and was arrested by the 'hero.' At that time... I was quite desperate."

Perhaps it was a rare moment of relaxation, but Mikaela also revealed her past to Asagami Fujino.

After all, keeping things bottled up inside only makes one more anxious. After arriving in this world, he also talked to Irisviel about his past.

So it doesn't matter if I talk to Asagami Fujino now, since Mikaela is only cold on the surface, but in reality he also hopes to talk to as many people as possible.

On the other hand, Asagami Fujino was also very interested in Mikaela's past, and the two kept talking next to the summoning circle.

Meanwhile... on the Black Faction...

"Hoo." A fat man took a deep breath. His name was Gordes Musik Yugdomilenia, a dignified Magecraft.

He is not a true member of the Yugdomilenia race, but Magecraft has temporarily Yugdomilenia for mutual benefit and common goals.

"How is it?" Darnic looked at Gordes and asked calmly, "Has your magical state reached its peak?"

"That's natural." Gordes looked at Darnic with great pride and said, "I'm always at my peak, but it will take some time to get back to my best condition. However... Chieftain, I have a request."

"Oh?"

Darnic looked at the fat man in front of him with some surprise. To be honest, although the other man had good talent as Magecraft, he was only considered good. Compared to his talent, his pride was far too strong.

"We're at a disadvantage right now, aren't we?" Gordes looked at Darnic with considerable pride. "If I successfully summon that dragon-slaying swordsman, then we can turn the tide of the battle, right?"

"That's right. If we really summon that hero, with his strength combined with Vlad III, then we can be said to be invincible." Darnic nodded slightly. To be honest, he didn't understand what Gordes was trying to say.

"Very well! Then I have only one request! That is, after Saber is summoned, let him become a warrior without emotions." Gordes said with great emotion, "I don't want a situation like Valkyrie's to happen again. We must win this Holy Grail War."

"... No problem, turn him into a ruthless warrior."

Darnic nodded slightly. He thought Gordes made a lot of sense. To be honest, he still didn't know what Brynhildr was all about.

Although Siegfried and Sigurd are two different people, if Brynhildr were to reappear, would Siegfried show mercy? Darnic couldn't guess what the heroes were thinking.

So what Gordes said at this moment made him feel that he could simply use Command Seal to restrict the Servant and turn him into an emotionless warrior. He only needed to wield his sword and bring victory to himself and the others.

"Alright!" Gordes nodded; he was ready to summon Saber.

"Well then, it's up to you." Darnic turned and walked out of the room where he summoned his Servant. He slowly walked to the other side and soon encountered Roche Fryin, who had been bothering Avicebron.

"How is the creation of Avicebron's Noble Phantasm?"

Looking at Roche Fryin, Darnic said in a very calm tone, "They didn't make a move yesterday, but they will definitely take action today. If I'm not mistaken, they may be planning to do the same as us, summoning Saber first and then launching a large-scale attack."

"The teacher said that the Noble Phantasm will be successfully created around midnight." Roche Fryin bowed respectfully to Darnic and said very seriously, "In order to prevent the Assassin from intercepting the Homunculus, the teacher hopes that you can send a Servant to protect him."

"That's no problem."

Darnic agreed, since the Hassan of the Hundred Faces who had left earlier must have known when the Avicebron Noble Phantasm was created.

Furthermore, Chiron and Medusa also stated that they could still sense the presence of Hassan of the Hundred Faces assassin within the castle; they remained hidden in the shadows and had not completely departed.

Even if Chiron had eyes that could see into the near future, he could not possibly find where Hassan of the Hundred Faces was hiding.

Unless they themselves step forward and declare that they will fight Chiron and the other Servant to the death!

However, it's obvious to anyone with eyes that that's impossible. Only Hassan of the Hundred Faces's lost their mind would jump out of the shadows.

"Everything is ready. We can only wait and see how things develop." Darnic sighed, glancing at the Command Seal in his hand. His tone was somewhat cold as he said, "Hopefully, we won't have to play this final trump card."

Darnic knew that the current situation was quite unfavorable for them, and... the Clock Tower was already running out of steam. He had to quickly eliminate the other Servant and Master, and then use the power of the Holy Grail to protect the future of Yugdomilenia!

Chapter 213 The Operation Begins! (Third Update)

As evening fell and the sun had completely set, Mikaela and the others finished their dinner in silence and prepared to begin their operation.

"Well then, see you on the battlefield."

After finishing her meal, Jeanne d'Arc planned to leave early. As the referee, she knew that something would definitely happen tonight, so she had to get to the battlefield in advance to watch the fierce battle of the Holy Grail War.

"Don't do anything unnecessary," Cú Chulainn kindly reminded him. "If you do anything unnecessary, don't blame us."

"Although you are a guest at the dinner table, we trust you far too little. If you do anything wrong, we will definitely kill you." Red A also picked up a towel to wipe his hands. He looked at Jeanne d'Arc very seriously and said, "I hope you won't do anything unnecessary."

"I've told you so many times, I'm not that kind of person." Jeanne d'Arc was quite helpless. To be honest, she felt that these Servant didn't trust her at all.

They've known each other for a while now, haven't they? They should know a bit about her personality by now.

Mikaela knew why Jeanne d'Arc was viewed with suspicion by the other Servant. He patted the Black Whistle on the shoulder and said calmly, "The one with the fewest desires is the one most prone to headaches. Please understand this principle."

"It's like what someone said: 'I don't care what you think, I care what I think.' That's pretty much how people are."

After saying that, Mikaela walked past Jeanne d'Arc and headed towards the door; he was about to summon Saber.

"Is that so?" Jeanne d'Arc was a little troubled. She had no desires, yet she was being treated with suspicion by others. Was there really such a thing?

Jeanne d'Arc left quickly, and the others followed Mikaela to the summoning location. Irisviel couldn't help but laugh when she saw the simple summoning circle.

"Isn't this a bit rude?" Emiya Kiritsugu's lips twitched slightly. It was the first time he had ever seen True Magic circle drawn with chalk. Even chalk mixed with magic would have been better.

At least it looks better on the surface, just like real gold and gold plating. Even though you know the latter is not as good as the former, the difference in appearance is not significant.

"Not impolite." Mikaela shook his head slightly and said calmly, "Summoning is just a ritual. If the other party really wants to come down, then they certainly don't care about the so-called ritual."

"That's right." Ryougi Shiki nodded slightly, agreeing with Mikaela's words that the ritual was merely a process, not the final result.

If the other party is someone who cares about the process, then it doesn't matter, no matter how powerful you are, Saber! There are so many Servant here, they have ways to severely injure you in one go, or even use Command Seal to make you commit suicide.

"It's starting. Everyone, please get ready." Mikaela stretched out one hand. He had already handed over all his Command Seal to Irisviel, so he didn't have any Command Seal in his hand at the moment.

"Buzz—!!"

An invisible magical power erupted from his body, and the Command Seal reappeared in Mikaela's hand, a sign of the Holy Grail's renewed approval.

As for why it's "again," that's not entirely clear.

"Announcement."

Mikaela chanted the incantation she had repeated countless times, finishing it in one breath, and her Servant successfully responded to the summons and descended into this world.
