Chapter 8 Rest
Chapter 8 Rest
After Matthew learned the Noble Phantasm, the group entered a nearby building to recover from their injuries and magic power.
It looks like a burned-down school building. If nothing goes wrong, this should be Hogunhara Academy. Well, this is Fuyuki, so of course such an important scene will appear.
"However, if the rest time is so short, a third-rate magician like me can't even recover much of my magic power." Yu Yiyu sighed and concentrated his mind on the small stone in his hand. He finally figured out the delayed activation of Rune, and it would be the right thing to do now.
"Instead of complaining, you might as well get to work quickly. In the next battle, you must use all the tricks you have stored away." Olga Marie put down the stone, and a magic circle unfolded under her to assist the progress of the project.
"I really envy those of you who have high-quality magic circuits. You can unfold the magic circle and speed up the process. If I do this, my magic power will be exhausted in less than an hour." Yu Yiyu sighed. However, he should feel fortunate to have discovered that he had a circuit at that time and could become a magician. After all, there was no inheritance of magic family.
"Really? You've said this three times in these five minutes. Forget it! I'll lend you my magic circle, so you can come in and finish your homework!" As if she had been hinted by Yu Yiyu several times, Olga Marie could only sigh and expand the range of the magic circle so that he could use it.
"Oh! Really? Thank you~ Miss Director is so nice."
"Humph!"
She raised her head proudly, while Yu Yiyu moved a little closer to her and continued working at the edge of the magic circle.
Originally, according to the nature of this singularity, the magic power in the atmosphere is actually quite sufficient, which means that the effect of performing magic using the Great Source within the range of this singularity will be greatly increased.
However, these modern magicians do not have the ability to directly see the magic power flowing in the atmosphere, nor can they use the magic resources of the great source.
Animusphia, who is good at celestial magic, might have a way, but that is not something that Yu Yiyu, a mind magician, would know. The level of his mind key pattern is not enough to connect to that kind of knowledge.
"Stars (star shape); Cosmos (universe shape); Gods (god shape); Animus (my shape); Antrum (celestial body is the void); Unversed (the void is the void); Anima, Animsphere (the void is the place where God is)."
Olga Marie drew the rune stone while chanting the spell. Yu Yiyu put down the rune stone he had drawn, then took out the only remaining white paper and began to draw the rune.
"Oh! I'm doing it, I'm doing it!" The caster, who had released his spiritual form, also came to the roof and reached out to pick up a rune stone that Olga Marie had not yet drawn a pattern on.
"Wait—what are you doing!"
"Hmm~ You're still preparing this kind of thing."
"It's better than nothing."
"Better than nothing... right? Haha." Caster put away the pebble and walked to Yu Yiyu to watch him draw the talisman.
"Will this kind of thing really be useful, kid?" Caster asked, seeming to understand but not quite understand.
Yu Yiyu did not answer him directly, but concentrated on drawing the talisman until it emitted a faint light, then he replied: "Sorry, I have to concentrate when making this, otherwise it will definitely fail. Well, even if I concentrate, I will fail sometimes."
He picked up the newly made talisman and said, "This talisman has a spell that can damage and control spirits. The servant says that he is the hero's clone, but in fact he is just a high-level familiar. In other words, he is a spirit that has gained a physical body called a spirit base, so this kind of spell against spirits can work on the servant to some extent."
"You, it's amazing that you know so much about servants."
"Well, just think of me as a lunatic who loves solving mythological puzzles. It's not like I know nothing about the Holy Grail War and servants."
"Wow~" He looked at Yu Yiyu with interest, and then said: "Then you should be able to help a lot, such as recognizing the real name and the opponent's weaknesses."
"Ah, sure. If I know, then since you brought up this topic, it means you know the other person's identity, whether it's Saber or Archer."
"Ah, of course I would say that. Understanding our enemy is also necessary for fighting."
Olga Marie listened to the two of them talking about the main point, put down the rune stone in her hand, looked up and asked: "What is Saber's true form, do you know?"
"Ah." Caster turned and walked to the railing and continued, "If you have seen that treasure once, you will definitely know who it is. It is one of the most famous holy swords in your era. Its name is Excailbur (Sword of Promised Victory)."
"Excailbur?! So, Saber is that King Arthur!? You want Matthew to fight King Arthur? She is just an ordinary person who has just become a servant!" When Olga Marie heard this name, she immediately felt that the situation had become worse.
"A holy sword user, that's bad. The protection of that holy sword seems to prevent the holder from aging, which is not a problem. As for King Arthur, there is also the protection of the lake fairy, so it won't sink into the water." Yu Yiyu then asked: "Caster, what does Saber's Noble Phantasm look like when it is released? Also, does she hold Avalon?"
"The Noble Phantasm released by Mana is a beam attack, and it's an extremely huge one. The power is estimated to be at least A+. As for Avalon, well, I haven't seen it, so I'm not sure."
"Very good, then it should be understood that she does not hold Avalon, which is good."
"What is the effect of the treasure named Avalon?" Olga Marie asked.
"Based on the story, it is very likely a barrier-type treasure that can open a barrier paradise that can block all damage, that is, the utopia of Avalon. Of course, even if it does not have this effect, just holding the scabbard is estimated to give Saber unparalleled recovery power. In the legend, King Arthur who holds the scabbard will not be injured or bleed. That is the ability of the scabbard."
"I see..." Olga Marie nodded and continued, "But in the story, King Arthur's scabbard has been lost. This may be the reason why Saber does not have Avalon."
"It's a reasonable guess. It's a good thing to know that King Arthur doesn't have Avalon. Matthew's shield should be able to block the holy sword, provided she doesn't give up first."
"Oh? Apparently, you figured out which heroic spirit the little girl got her power from? Right?"
"Don't you know that, too?"
The two guys pretending to be riddlers smiled at each other, which made Olga Marie stunned.
"You two, if you know, why don't you say it out loud?"
"No, this kind of thing...right?"
"Yeah, that's right." Yu Yiyu replied and then looked at Olga Marie and explained: "The hero who lent Matthew the power did not tell her the name of the power, which means he is also hesitating about something, so now is not the right time. When the time comes, Matthew will definitely know the name of the shield."
"You guys--!" She was very angry and didn't understand why important information had to be hidden at this time.
There is a reason why Caster cannot say this. For Yu Yiyu, he simply thinks it is fun to be a riddle teller. Moreover, if he says it out loud, who knows what will happen to him if he is watched from behind.
"Hey!" Caster came over and patted Yu Yiyu's back heavily and said, "Okay! The chat is over. Next, let's fulfill our promise. I will teach you something very powerful. However, it is quite difficult to learn. Be prepared! Well, if you can't learn it, this knowledge will keep echoing in your mind until you learn it."
"If you want me to die here, just say so!" The knowledge keeps echoing in my mind, so how can I do anything? It won't be removed until I learn it. At least make it a type that can be viewed! The kind that won't affect my normal life!
"Hahaha! There's no point in refusing now! I've already decided to teach you!"
"Damn it, you rabid dog!"
