To be king and magician

"Don't say that, at least let me see something very interesting." Aoqi orange lit a cigarette and said, "However, compared to relying on letters to use illusions, I'm still more interested in what you just mentioned about the Holy Grail." War matters are more interesting."

"Before that, please explain to me what the Holy Grail War is?"

The only one who had almost nothing to do with the magic world, the two rituals, frowned and interjected.

Looking at each other, seeing Xia Chuanhu spread his hands towards him, Cang Qi Chengzi knew that he had to explain by himself.

Breathing out a puff of smoke, Aozaki Orange asked: "The Holy Grail War revolves around the universal wish-making machine that can grant any wish - the Holy Grail. It is a magic ceremony held in Japan every 60 years. Seven magicians summoned each to leave their names. Heroes in history or mythology fight each other. The winner who survives in the end can get the Holy Grail."

"Simply put, that's it."

A wishing machine that can grant any wish.

The two ceremonies raised their eyebrows: "Is the Holy Grail such an exaggerated thing?"

"Who knows? I haven't actually participated in the Holy Grail War, and I don't know much about the Holy Grail, but I guess it shouldn't be such a omnipotent thing. But as far as I know, the Holy Grail War has been held four times, and no matter which time The Holy Grail has not come down, so there is not much authenticity." Cang Qi Chengzi took a puff of cigarette while talking, "The next thing is up to the person concerned."

"The teacher is basically right."

Xia Chuanhu took over the topic: "The Holy Grail is indeed not an omnipotent wish-making machine. Its way of realizing wishes is to consume the accumulated magic power, skip the intermediate process, and present the results in front of the wisher. The reason why every 60 years To hold it once is to allow the Holy Grail to accumulate enough magic power."

"After all, with the magical power of 60 years, as long as the wish is not so outrageous that it is unimaginable, it should be able to come true."

"When you say that, I immediately feel that the Holy Grail is nothing special." The two ceremonies suddenly lost a lot of interest, "The omnipotent wishing machine, the result is just like that."

"You can't say that. It's a bit exaggerated to say it's a universal wishing machine, but if you say it's [a universal wishing machine for magicians], then there's no problem. After all, as long as it's serious All magicians have the same wish."

Get to the root.

This is the unifying wish of almost all magicians.Therefore, after obtaining the Holy Grail, they will all make this wish without exception. Coincidentally, the Holy Grail was created to reach the root.

When Xia Chuanhu said this, part of the interest that had been lost in the two ceremonies was lost again: "What, you can only be said to be omnipotent if you are restricted by various rules and regulations. That is not omnipotent at all. There can't really be something omnipotent, right?"

Hearing what the two ceremonies said, Xia Chuanhu couldn't help laughing and said: "Who can say that? Maybe it really exists, almighty thing."

"I always feel that there is something in your words..."

"No."

Looking at Xia Chuanhu who was starting to play sloppy eyes, he curled his lips in some dissatisfaction, and the two ceremonies changed the subject: "Then what about you? I know the concept of the Holy Grail War, so it's time to talk about you."

Although Xia Chuanhu just mentioned a sentence casually before, and the explanation was very brief, but it was such a simple sentence, and the amount of information contained in it was extremely huge, so huge that it made Aozaki Chengzi and the two rituals feel strange. .

What happened to this 21-year-old boy in front of him three years ago?

"Can you stop looking at me with that expectant look? It's not a big deal. Compared with me, Mr. Chengzi's youthful experience must be more interesting, isn't it?"

"I'm still very young!"

While chatting and laughing, Aoqi Orange directly threw a ballpoint pen at Xia Chuanhu.

Shrinking his neck to avoid the sneak attack, Xia Chuanhu put on a serious face: "Teacher, I told you not to throw things around. No one wants this kind of habit——hey! Don't throw it! I shut it up! Shut up!"

"Brother, I have prepared all the ingredients."

At this moment, Gray, who was wearing a pink children's apron, opened the door and walked in. Seeing this, Xia Chuanhu breathed a sigh of relief: "Thanks for your hard work, I will do the rest now—just in time, about my Let's talk about the Holy Grail War while eating."

————————————————————————————————————

To be honest, Xia Chuanhu personally doesn’t think there is much to say about the Holy Grail War. If he is asked to summarize by himself, he can only say that he spends more than half of the time retreating, and the remaining half of the time goes to Krypton. It's just dead.

but--

"So in the end, your Holy Grail War was an unwarranted disaster caused by a little girl who loved too much?"

After listening to Xia Chuanhu's narration, Aozaki Chengzi shook the beer can slightly and smiled.

"Because the famous King Arthur was summoned by accident, but because of this, he was targeted by King Arthur's former master, but that was a genius magician, and the result was that he was tortured so much that he couldn't bear to die——Your Holy Grail War is not what I imagined Woolen cloth."

The two ceremonies also echoed: "That's right, it's just like a child messing around."

(Sajo Aiga will be furious when you say that... It's better to say that she is already furious now.)

"What can I do, who made me just an ordinary person who didn't know any magic at that time." Rubbing his eyes, Xia Chuanhu sighed with a wry smile, "But... also because of that The Holy Grail War made me who I am today, and to be honest, if I had to go back and choose again, I should still participate.”

"Why?" Aoqi Chengzi couldn't help being a little surprised, "If you're just an ordinary person, isn't participating in the Holy Grail War the same as courting death?"

"That's the truth, but even so... I don't want to lose the memory of fighting with that guy (Arthur). If I had to say one thing that I never regret, it would be It must be meeting him—why are you looking at me like that?"

"Do not......."

Taking a sip of beer, Aozaki Chengzi slightly turned her head away: "It's just a little unexpected that you will show that expression...but it's not unexpected after all, right, Shiki?"

"Ah."

"So what kind of expression is it? Gray, did I show a strange expression just now?"

"No, it's my brother's expression all the time."

(I didn't realize it at all, this person......when he mentioned King Arthur, he had a very proud expression on his face.)

(However. Sajo Aiga, Sajo... a surname I have never heard of. There are only a few famous magic families in Japan, and most of them have contacts with the Aozaki family, but when I was young, I could Never heard of the surname Shatiao.)

So, who is that Sha Tiao Ai Ge?

"Forget it, I won't worry about the boy's affairs."

"Teacher, what did you say?"

"It's nothing—speaking of which, what are you going to do about that Lord El-Melloi?"

————————————————————————————

at the same time.

"How dare you talk about the prince in such a proud and proud tone! Foxy, if I can get out from here, I will definitely torture you to death!"

Because of Xia Chuanhu's involuntary tone, Sha Tiao Aige was furious.

28. Graduation is a hassle

Kenneth is coming to Japan.

"If you want me to tell you what to do... Actually, I don't know either."

According to Mei Li, Kenneth came to Japan mainly for two things - Xia Chuanhu's graduation of all basic courses, and Xia Chuanhu's rank conferment.

However, what troubled Xia Chuanhu was that he didn't know the specific process of these two matters.

"Teacher, you have experienced it before, tell me about it?"

"Ask me for help... But that happened ten years ago, and I don't remember much." Ao Qicheng rubbed his temples and thought for a while, "Let me think about it, everyone If you graduate from basic courses, it seems that you need three credits to meet the requirements."

"three aspects?"

"The first is the attendance score, which is generally no problem. Then there is the self-defense score. Given your physical condition, it should be enough for you to beat the teacher." Ao Qicheng gave a very pertinent suggestion , "As for the last one, it is the practice score, as long as you complete the homework assigned by the teacher on time."

"Then after everything is completed, those who can graduate will be gathered together, and the opening ceremony will be performed uniformly."

(Graduation ceremonies... are not too different from high school.)

Xia Chuanhu recalled his situation.

(Attendance scores... Well, it should be fine. Although they are basically stuck on the timeline, they have not skipped classes. If they do not go to class, they will have a formal leave of absence, so it is no problem.)

(Self-defense...you will be fine if you beat Mr. Kenneth, just hit him lightly, just to loosen his whole body. He often sits in the office for a long time, so it is good to let him move around.)

(Practice scores... wait a minute!)

Thinking suddenly stopped, Xia Chuanhu suddenly covered his face.

Two rituals: "What's wrong?"

Xia Chuanhu: "It seems that I haven't gone to the clock tower for class for half a year!"

"..."

Cang Qi Chengzi couldn't help being stunned.

Like, really?

"I thought you came to me to learn art from me after completing all the formalities?"

"This...Because I didn't know if I could find you smoothly at first, so I only planned to stay here for a winter vacation, but I didn't expect to find you all at once, and the follow-up was also because life was too natural I just forgot about having to go back to class..."

"I'm very sorry, brother, I also forgot...Obviously I should have reminded you..."

Seeing Gray blame himself, Xia Chuanhu quickly waved his hands to comfort him: "It's all right, it's basically my fault, Grey, you're not at fault at all, really! Don't take it to heart!"

"But this is a little troublesome." Aoqi Chengzi said in a deep voice, "you said you came here during the winter vacation, young man, it means that you skipped all the classes in the clock tower for the first half of the year—no, you even Didn’t report it. The attendance days are overwhelmingly insufficient.”

"Although the clock tower has a rule for early graduation, it is also based on the premise of meeting the graduation requirements. In the normal five-year system, all basic courses, as long as you are not an idiot, you can definitely graduate, but you have skipped half a year.. ...."

I have to go back and read the book for half a year.

Xia Chuanhu couldn't help scratching his head: "I have almost learned all the basics, and I really don't want to go back. Compared with those basics, I want to stay here and learn about dolls."

"I'm very happy for you to say that, but the basic rules still have to be followed. Besides, for dolls, it's not too late to learn after you graduate. I'm not going to close this Garan Hall in two or three years. You can come anytime."

"That's true."

Originally, the reason why Xia Chuanhu visited Cangqi Chengzi this year was because it was only this year that he could determine the whereabouts of Cangqi Chengzi. After this year, the person in front of him would go to nowhere.But since she herself said that she is not planning to leave in two or three years, it is not a bad idea to return to the UK temporarily to complete her studies.

"What about the ceremony for giving me a rank?" Xia Chuanhu continued to ask, "Mei Li said that the teacher is going to give me a sacrificial place. I remember that it is a rank that can be bestowed on the basis of special talents, so in this rank Magicians vary in level."

Cang Qi Chengzi nodded: "The matter of assigning ranks is quite troublesome, but you have a teacher Monarch, who will help you with all kinds of things, but there is another problem before you."

"what is the problem?"

"Thesis. The rank is actually the same as a degree. If you want to improve, you have to show your own research results. The thesis is just a form of expression. The important thing is the [result] - just take a doll like me. "

Having said that, Aozaki Orange pointed at Xia Chuanhu: "But you don't have it?"

"Hmm... What Meili said before was based on my physical fitness evaluation."

"But that's because you have fused the power of the heroic spirit, it's not your own research result—and, it's not guaranteed that you will receive the designation of the seal. Fusion with the heroic spirit, in the history of the clock tower, you should be In the first instance, I can fully imagine how those magicians would react."

What kind of conditions are needed to be able to fuse with the heroic spirit?Are there physical needs?Has the magic circuit changed its quality due to the fusion of heroic spirits?What about your physical condition? --wait.

Driven by doubts like these, those magicians would use all means to study Xia Chuanhu's body.

in short.

"You will be dissected."

"In that case the Clock Tower would absolutely disappear, in every sense of the word."
