Type-Moon: Upgrading Traits, Joining the Chat Group at the Start Chapter 3

[Lumine]: Give it up, there's no way you'll draw anything good.

[Wang Xiaomei]: Nonsense! That's only because you're already strong to begin with—the things you draw don't improve you much, so of course they seem bad. But this lottery for an ordinary person with no supernatural power? This is a chance to overturn fate!

[Busujima Saeko]: Hmm... Even though I drew a sword manual that greatly improved my swordsmanship, it doesn't seem to have reached the level of overturning fate.

Seeing this, Su Luo already knew this chat group was the same as the ones he was familiar with.

But just as Kaguya Houraisan said, it's free to draw, so why not? Since it's a handout, there's nothing to complain about.

With that thought, Su Luo used his mind to tap the check-in icon on the panel, then performed another lottery.

[Ding! Congratulations to group member Su Luo for checking in and receiving 100 Points.]

[Congratulations to group member Su Luo for drawing the Noble Phantasm Gate of Babylon.]

"?" Su Luo slowly typed out a question mark, then an indescribable joy surged through him.

"Am I... really going from unlucky to lucky!?"

He recalled how before his transmigration, even pulling a character card would often go wrong—he was a true unlucky one. But after crossing over, he'd directly flipped from unlucky to lucky.

Whether it was obtaining Traits or the chat group's lottery, he'd never drawn anything bad so far!

Su Luo quickly took two screenshots and sent them to the group, along with a message.

[Su Luo]: @everyone, newbie asking for advice—are these things any good?

[Kaguya Houraisan]: ?

[Lumine]: ??

[Busujima Saeko]: ...

[Wang Xiaomei]: Fake, definitely fake! You must have drawn an empty shell!

[Su Luo]: That's a strange thing to say—if there's no treasure inside, can it still be called Gate of Babylon?

[Lumine]: Big shot! I'm not asking for the Noble Phantasm, but could you spare some Golden Treasure? This kid is really starving!

[Kaguya Houraisan]: Godfather! Could you spare an A-rank Noble Phantasm for your daughter to play with?

[Su Luo]: @Kaguya Houraisan, are you dreaming? We're not related—why would I give you a Noble Phantasm of that level?

[Kaguya Houraisan]: You're my godfather, I'm your goddaughter—how can you say we're not related! Isn't it only natural to give your adopted daughter a couple of Noble Phantasms for self-defense!

[Ding! A group member sent a group red packet.]

[Su Luo]: Don't even think about A-rank Noble Phantasms. I'll send you all some Golden Treasure, plus a few Low-rank Noble Phantasms—that shouldn't be a problem.

In his excellent mood after drawing Gate of Babylon, Su Luo didn't mind giving the group members a few low-level Noble Phantasms. For him now, this was just a drop in the bucket.

He'd treat it as scattering wealth to accumulate some luck.

[Busujima Saeko]: Thank you very much. If there's ever anything you need my help with, please don't hesitate to ask.

[Kaguya Houraisan]: A D-rank Noble Phantasm (disdain)

[Wang Xiaomei]: Thanks, big shot. @Kaguya Houraisan, have some shame—you're not related to him, so getting a D-rank Noble Phantasm is already pretty good.

[Kaguya Houraisan]: Group Owner, when have you ever seen anyone in Gensokyo care about face?

[Lumine]: Thanks, godfather! Now I don't have to wake up early every day to do commissions just to earn Paimon's meal money.

Teyvat.

Having just gained a foothold in Mondstadt, Lumine looked at the pile of gleaming gold in her system space and couldn't help but shed tears of gratitude.

Heaven knows how hard her life had been since she picked up Paimon.

At least two-thirds of the Mora she earned every day went to feeding Paimon, leaving only one-third for her to use.

After deducting some living expenses, there wasn't much Mora left.

With that thought, Lumine took out the Noble Phantasm Su Luo had gifted from her system space, then pulled out her own Dull Blade.

She sized up the two swords for a moment, then suddenly slammed the Dull Blade to the ground!

Clang!

"Whoever wants this broken sword can have it!" Lumine cursed angrily.

"Mmm... Lumine, why's it so noisy in the middle of the night?"

Paimon woke up from her sleep at that moment.

She floated unsteadily in the air, rubbing her sleepy eyes with small hands, her voice a little whiny.

Hearing Paimon's voice, Lumine spun around sharply.

In the dim room, Lumine's golden hair was slightly disheveled.

A faint crimson light flickered in her eyes, and a chilling, terrifying aura emanated from her.

Paimon was startled, her groggy consciousness instantly snapping awake.

She gave an awkward laugh. "Well... Lumine, you go ahead. I won't bother you."

Though she didn't know why Lumine was looking at her with such anger, her instincts told her this was not the time to get on Lumine's bad side.

Chapter 4: The Other Masters' Situations, Preparing to Kill the Bugs

Type-Moon, Fuyuki City.

Su Luo looked at the thanks from his group members, and the corners of his mouth involuntarily lifted.

Then he closed the panel and began planning for this Holy Grail War.

"Master, you've finished your business?" Melly asked curiously, noticing his demeanor.

Su Luo had been standing in place for a while now, his expression shifting along with his slightly lowered head, like a modern person scrolling through their phone.

Yet before her eyes, she saw nothing at all.

She had even deliberately checked the surrounding environment and found no anomalies.

It was hard not to be curious.

"Mm, it's done." Su Luo nodded, looking at Melly's enchanting face and letting out a light laugh.

"I'll explain it to you later. Our primary goal right now is the Holy Grail War."

Since he had already summoned a Servant, there was no way to avoid this Holy Grail War.

Besides, he also needed to bind the participating Masters and their Servants to gain more opportunities to acquire entries.

They were all special figures. If he could bind every Master and Servant in this Holy Grail War...

Then every week, he would have thirteen chances to obtain Random Entries.

And this Holy Grail War also had strong individuals like Saber and Gilgamesh.

Extracting their Exclusive Entries would definitely bring him a huge boost.

Thinking of this, Su Luo's mood couldn't help but grow excited.

"Alright, so Master already has a plan?" Melly tilted her head slightly and asked with some curiosity.

"Not really, but first we need to confirm who the Masters in this Holy Grail War actually are."

Su Luo shook his head, then used his Clairvoyance to observe the present.

Although he knew the anime plot, who could say for sure that this Holy Grail War would develop according to the future he knew?

He had already taken the place of Ryunosuke Uryuu, Caster's Master.

It was entirely possible that other Masters' situations had also changed.

Melly looked at Su Luo's eyes with astonishment.

As another owner of [Clairvoyance EX], Melly naturally sensed that Su Luo, like her, possessed the highest level of Clairvoyance.

And with her own insight, she could also tell that Su Luo's Clairvoyance ability was the same as hers—Present Vision!

This was extremely rare!

Letting out a long breath, Melly calmed down and couldn't help teasing Su Luo: "I didn't expect Master to also have the highest level of Clairvoyance, and the same Present Vision as me. Doesn't that mean we're fated to meet?"

Su Luo didn't respond, silently using his Clairvoyance to observe the other Masters' situations.

Seeing this, Melly had to change the subject, offering Su Luo some warnings about using Present Vision to spy:

"Master, be careful when using Clairvoyance to observe. If it's a goddess-level powerhouse, or someone else with [Clairvoyance EX], they can sense someone using Clairvoyance to peek at them."

Compared to [Past Vision] and [Future Vision], the ability of [Present Vision] was quite lackluster.

It was essentially an enhanced global surveillance system—you could look anywhere.

But it could be detected by some strong individuals.

If Su Luo ever angered a powerhouse she couldn't handle, then she would have no choice but to take Su Luo into Avalon and live a life for two!

Mm, it was definitely not because she wanted to keep Su Luo for herself.

"I'll be careful." Su Luo responded casually, then suddenly sensed something and fixed his gaze in one direction.

'Wait, Kiritsugu Emiya and the Einzbern family are only in a simple cooperative relationship? Illya hasn't even been born yet!'

A flicker of surprise passed through Su Luo's eyes, but he didn't dwell on this small detail.

No relationship was best.

Although losing the "wife" identity would lower the attack speed a bit, the original flavor was even more to his liking.

Thinking this, Su Luo observed the situations of the few Masters he knew for a while longer.

He could now confirm that the Holy Grail War had not yet begun.

Some people hadn't even received their Command Spells yet; they would probably have to wait a while.

What caught his attention was that when he observed Tokiomi Tohsaka, he saw him and Sakura Tohsaka sitting in a sedan, heading somewhere unknown.

But seeing Sakura Tohsaka's sorrowful expression, Su Luo turned his gaze toward the Matou family.

When he saw Zouken Matou standing at the Matou family's entrance, brimming with joy as if waiting for something, Su Luo immediately understood what was about to happen.

Clearly, today was the day Tokiomi Tohsaka was transferring Sakura Tohsaka to the Matou family.

"Master, what's wrong?" Melly sensed the anger in Su Luo's heart and couldn't help wondering what he had seen to make him so upset.

"Come, accompany me to kill some bugs." Su Luo offered no explanation.

He raised his arm, and golden ripples shimmered in the space behind him.

A radiant "vessel" of gold and emerald, capable of soaring through the skies, materialized before Su Luo and Melly.

This was none other than the Vimana, the personal mount of the King of Heroes, Gilgamesh.

A flicker of awe passed through Su Luo's eyes, but the thought of Sakura Tohsaka immediately drove it away as he boarded the Vimana.

He then turned to Melly, who stood stunned, and urged, "Get on quickly."

He had to reach the Matou residence now and eliminate that old worm, to save Sakura.

This was practically one of the events every traveler to the Type-Moon world would complete.

Hearing Su Luo's urging, Melly suppressed her curiosity, asked nothing, and hurriedly climbed onto the Vimana.

Before the Matou family's gate.

A black sedan slowly came to a halt.

The door opened, and Tokiomi Tohsaka stepped out with Sakura Tohsaka, approaching Zouken Matou. He bowed gracefully.

Then he spoke slowly, "I entrust Sakura to you. I hope you will keep your promise and allow her to inherit the Matou family's Magic Crest."

With that, Tokiomi sighed inwardly.

Today was the day he formally gave his younger daughter, Sakura Tohsaka, to the Matou family, and his heart was a tangled mess of emotions.

This decision carried his wish to restore the glory of the Tohsaka family, as well as his love for Sakura.

In the world of Magi, deception and betrayal were rife, laying bare the vilest aspects of human nature.
