In an unknown space, communications that cannot be heard by outsiders are taking place secretly.
An indistinguishable male and female voice echoed in the unknown space: "The intruder took advantage of the opportunity, and he came to Fuyuki City in advance as an assassin."
Another voice asked with a slightly confused voice: "In the Fuyuki Holy Grail system, the assassins summoned through conventional means can only come from the Assassin Order. How did the invaders bypass this restriction and come as the assassins?"
"Unknown, but this is good news for us. Compared with the upper three knights, the assassin's ability is relatively weak, so it should not be too difficult to deal with the threat of intruders."
Another voice was silent for a moment before retorting: "That's not necessarily the case. You should first look at the inherent skills and treasures given to him by the rules of the world."
"..."
"!!!"
"Is this person really a human being born in modern times?"
A long silence ushered in the unknown space. After an unknown period of time, the person who spoke out first sighed softly: "We cannot allow intruders to destroy the fragile balance and stability of this world."
"Send a coordinator in the name of the Holy Grail to unite the participants in the Holy Grail War as much as possible. Before persuading them to start fighting each other, first eliminate the invading descendants and give the participants certain rewards to stimulate their enthusiasm."
"But, who should we send as referee to join the Holy Grail War?"
"Considering the intruder's inherent skills, let's dispatch the saint in a targeted manner."
"No objection."
…
At this time, Lu Xiao still knew nothing about the secret conspiracy between the two beings.
The way he entered the new world this time made him a little uncomfortable. In the past, the system would issue world tasks before traveling through the world, and inform him of the name of the world in advance.
It wasn't until Lu Xiao officially came to the earth that the system, which had no idea what it was doing before, released the world mission belatedly.
"The only world mission released - overcome difficult obstacles and win the Holy Grail War."
Lu Xiao: “???”
"No more? Where's the reward?"
System: "Depending on the total number of servants defeated by the host, the reward given after completing the task will fluctuate. The host can choose whether it requires a lottery wheel or points."
"Okay." Lu Xiao sighed helplessly: "To put it bluntly, I only drew one big pie. How much I can eat in the end depends on my performance, right?"
After completing the task release and Q&A, the system enters the state of pretending to be dead again.
Putting back his divergent thoughts, Lu Xiao turned his attention to the little Master in front of him.
This little lady with very delicate appearance is wearing a rather elegant dress and is about 6-8 years old.
Judging from her dress, this little girl should have good family conditions and upbringing.
Faced with the sudden appearance in front of her, Lu Xiao still tried her best to show a calm attitude...but her trembling body and the tears in her eyes revealed her true thoughts.
"Hey~"
Taking off his hood and squatting down, Lu Xiao tried his best to keep his eyes level with the girl in red.
"Little lady, are you my master?"
"you you……"
Seeing that the other person was so nervous that he was breathless and speechless, Lu Xiao smiled and stretched out his hand to gently comfort the other person's head.
"Don't be nervous. Take a deep breath first and recall the family education you usually receive. You don't want to embarrass your family, right?"
This sentence seemed to hit a vital point in the other person's heart. The little girl with twin tails took a deep breath and finally suppressed her nervousness.
"My name is Tohsaka Rin, and I set up the magic circle to summon heroic spirits, but..."
Tohsaka Rin looked guiltily at the formation patterns randomly drawn with chalk on the ground. She was just trying to vent her depression, and she never expected that the summoning ceremony would really succeed.
'Tohsaka Rin?'
Lu Xiao's eyes narrowed, and he looked at the little girl whose tears had not gone away thoughtfully.
'Iconic twin tails, stubborn and unyielding character, and a big age gap from the ubw chapter, but you can still vaguely see some outlines of her 10 years later, so it shouldn't be wrong.'
It has been several years since Lu Xiao watched the complete series of fate/zero. Although she still remembers the general plot, some of the details are very blurry.
This time, the system did not give Lu Xiao time to review the plot, and hurriedly threw him into the new world. Lu Xiao failed to recognize the young Rin Tosaka for a while.
Lu Xiao looked back at the chalk magic circle that still had traces of it on the ground, and raised his eyebrows slightly, but he didn't say anything more about it.
"Then, I'll call you Rin."
Lu Xiao gentlemanly stretched out his right hand and placed it in front of the young Tosaka Rin: "Rin, can you let me see the back of your right hand?"
After Lu Xiao's reminder, Tohsaka Rin remembered his father's teachings and put his right hand into Lu Xiao's hand with his head held high.
"You want to see the command spell, right? Come on, this is proof that I am the master."
The command spell of young Tosaka Rin has not changed significantly compared to when she participated in the Fifth War ten years later. It still has a two-layer semicircular structure as the main structure. The bright red command spell is engraved on Xiao Rin's delicate and white skin.
Conspicuous.
"The contract is officially established."
Lu Xiao put one hand on her chest and half-knelt in front of Tohsaka Rin and said solemnly: "Master, I will serve as your sword to win the Holy Grail War. What wishes do you hope to realize through the Holy Grail?"
Tohsaka Rin subconsciously opened his mouth to say something, but considering something that happened recently, Tohsaka Rin, who was less than 7 years old, was unable to say "help his father win" and fell into silence temporarily.
"I...I want Sakura, my sister, to return to the Tohsaka family with the consent of her father and mother."
The smile that had been on Lu Xiao's face paused for a moment, and his eyes became a little deeper.
'Has Sakura's adoption happened already? As expected, everything is Tokiomi's fault.'
After basically confirming the timeline at this time, Lu Xiao lowered his head slightly and assured Tohsaka Rin: "This request is not difficult. It can be achieved even without the power of the Holy Grail. Rin, please wait and see."
…
Lu Xiao still vaguely remembered that Sakura seemed to have been adopted by Tokiomi Tokiomi and given to the Matou family a year before the Fourth Holy Grail War.
The Holy Grail system in Fuyuki City is jointly managed by three major families called the Gosan Family. Every 60 years, the Gosan Family will send members to participate in the Holy Grail War, hoping to fulfill the long-cherished wish left by their ancestors and complete the Third Magic Heavenly Grail.
The remaining four candidates are recruited from outside, and are usually given a spot in the Magic Association Clock Tower.
The three Gosaka families are Tohsaka, Machiri (Matō) and Einzbern. Lu Xiao’s master, Rin Tosaka, is one of the members of the Three Gossaka families.
However, Rin, who is fashionable and young at this time, has not yet taken up the important responsibility of the Tosaka family. The current head of the family, Tokiomi Tosaka, is still alive and actively planning how to win the Holy Grail War and touch the root vortex in the Tosaka mansion.
According to the information provided by Xiao Lin, there is still nearly a year until the Fourth Holy Grail War officially begins.
Tokiomi Tosaka has been preparing for this Holy Grail War for many years.
Relying on the good relationship between the Tosaka family and the Holy Church Church's leader of the Holy Grail War, Kotomine Rimasa, he accepted Father Kotomine's son Kotomine Kirei as his disciple two years ago and secretly concluded an alliance agreement.
The reason why Rin used chalk drawings to summon the magic circle was mainly to relieve the depression in his heart.
Each generation of a magician's family will record their lifelong research on family magic in the magic seal. The magic seal is the most important inheritance for magicians.
Each family will only have one magic seal, which will usually be passed down to the best successor of the current generation.
The luck and misfortune of the Tohsaka family all come from this. As the mother of the bloodline inheritance, Zenjo Aoi was of such excellent quality that she gave birth to two outstanding successors who were qualified to inherit the magic seal.
From Tokiomi Tosaka's point of view, the family's magic seal can only be passed down to one person, and another child with excellent magic qualifications is destined to not receive a complete family inheritance.
In the absence of his own strength, this child with excellent qualifications is likely to attract the covetous attention of some magicians and even the Clock Tower.
Out of this consideration, Tokiomi Tosaka decided to adopt one of the children to the Matou family, whose talents were declining, so that she could inherit the Matou family's magic seal.
Once he himself fails to win the Fourth Holy Grail War, the two sisters who control the Matou family and the Tohsaka family respectively may be able to cooperate in the next Holy Grail War 60 years later and complete the Tosaka family's long-standing ambition.
Sad wish.
"The starting point is a good one."
Lu Xiao, who turned on the aura blocker, stood outside the Matou residence in a very gloomy atmosphere, and said with a sarcastic sneer: "But you know too little about the Matou family, Tokiomi Tosaka."
