873 Holy Grail War
In the following days, as Claude said, he took Lindy and Presia across countless planes.
The r39 world where only the monster exists, the c441 world dominated by the dragon, and the i63 world where humanoid races are...
The various customs and customs not only made the lively Lindy excited, but even the quiet Presia's smile on her face became much brighter.
Time flies...
When the three of them bid farewell to the hotel and returned to Midchelda, winter was already unknowingly.
After sending Lindy and Presia back to the academy, Claude returned to the Time and Space Administration. His vacation was completely exhausted two weeks ago. However, in order to help Presia, Claude applied for more than a month of vacation from his superiors.
Including the days he was delayed in Fantasy Country, Claude's holiday was still more than a week. However, in order to find the book that caused the "Pavatroca Curse" as soon as possible and to truly awaken his memory, Claude decided to reinstate his post as soon as possible. He had to go to the Infinite Library to find clues, but before that, he still needed to complete all the tasks accumulated during his vacation.
As the ace of the Time and Space Administration, Cloud needs to perform various tasks every day, such as slaying dragons, finding lost secret treasures, exploring mysterious relics, etc. In the past, a whole brigade or even a fleet could accomplish the tasks. After Cloud joined, he only needed to complete it, and it took him not long, at most a week, at least half a day...
The title of hero is not blown out, it is precisely because of these glorious deeds that Claude's name is circulated in Meadchelda and the surrounding planes.
This time I didn't accumulate many tasks. In addition, the further improvement of my strength, it took only two days to complete them all.
Just as he was about to enter the Infinite Library to find clues, an emergency order was issued suddenly.
——Travel to the 97th management outside world to investigate the situation of the ritual ‘Holy Grail War’ and the final reward ‘Holy Grail’. If possible, seize the ‘Holy Grail’.
The 97th manages the outside world, as its name indicates, is a world that does not belong to the jurisdiction of the Space-Time Administration.
There are actually many such worlds in the starry sky, but most of them are unmanned worlds. A small number are subordinate worlds belonging to the "tree thunder", and a part is the three-region area where thieves are rampant in the starry sky.
The only exception is perhaps the 97th manages the outside world, commonly known as "Earth".
The earth is an ordinary world that focuses on the development of material technology. Since scientific and technological civilization has not yet met the standards, it is not considered help for the time being - this is recorded in the official textbooks of Shu Lei and Midchelda. But in fact, it is not Shu Lei and Midchelda who do not want to manage the earth, but the "indigenous people" on the earth... very powerful!
I don’t know what’s going on. Humans living on Earth either do not have the potential to become magicians. Or they have extremely powerful magic power. There are countless strong people at level B and A, and there are many above level S.
You should know that the entire Midchelda, including the "ace" brought from various planes by the Time and Space Administration, only a few people were only S-level and S-level, and only a few people reached S-level.
On Earth, some powerful hidden families, who have been practicing for a while, have the strength of SS or even SS.
Those who start practicing halfway or whose family power is a little slow, as long as they don’t die, can still reach level A step by step.
A-level can even be the leader of a ship in the Time and Space Administration, but there is only a gate for just entering the cultivation.
Such a difference has almost eliminated the idea of invasion among the upper class of the Time and Space Administration. Shu Lei, their top talents are indeed more than the Time and Space Administration, but there are almost no practitioners at the middle level. In addition, when the entire race is more peaceful, for millions of years, as long as the Shu Lei people's fleet will hardly leave Shu Lei Star.
Plus the aftermath of the rebellion two years ago...
There are many strong people on the earth, and there are also many forces. In order to compete for limited resources, the people living in the inner world have caused extremely dangerous events again and again. Among them, the "Holy Grail War" can rank among the top three!
Unlike the top two events that led to the silence of the mainland and the death of an island residents, the "Holy Grail War" has occurred three times before and after. Each ceremony was initiated, which will cause a rapid decrease in the population of the ceremony location. On the third time, it almost affected surrounding areas and countries!
The Holy Grail War, as the name suggests, is a war of killing and calculating each other with the omnipotent wishing machine - the Holy Grail as a bet. Although it is called war, it is just seven magicians who fight on the land called Tomoki City with seven summoned heroes.
Originally, it would be enough to carry out such a battle once, because as long as someone can get the Holy Grail, the ceremony can be declared completed.
But unfortunately...
At the end of the first three Holy Grail Wars, the Holy Grail did not successfully arrive!
It wasn't that the content and steps of the ceremony were wrong, but the people who participated were really furious. Finally, they died to the point where only two people were left, but the final outcome was mostly death.
The only time, during the Second Holy Grail War, a girl named Ayaka Satsuki defeated everyone, but did not perform the ceremony in order to be together with her heroic spirit. What will happen to the two of them later? No matter the magician on Earth or the Time and Space Administration records are mentioned, but according to Claude's guess, the ending of the two of them will definitely not be very good.
Without the help of the Holy Grail, the existence of heroic spirits cannot be maintained by relying solely on the B-level magic. Even if the girl barely meets the requirements through secret techniques, her life span will be shortened to the limit according to the principle of equivalent exchange.
Five years, up to ten years...
The girl will die, and her heroic spirit will return to the temple because of the middle section of magic power.
Speaking of the "Saturday of Valhalla", it is actually a place where the souls of heroes on earth will go after their death. Because these strong men are strong enough, they will be selected as guardians by the Earth's consciousness "Gaia". When there is a crisis on the earth, they will come one after another. After the crisis is lifted, they will return to the Silk Hall to wait for the opportunity.
Unlike the S-level and S-level mentioned earlier, the heroes often appear in front of the fleet of the Time and Space Administration. In their words, "You have crossed the boundary, either go back by yourself, or we will take you back."
The heroes have such strength. They are the weakest S-level and strongest and the strongest, and they can easily solve any fleet. If the Time and Space Administration sends a fleet group, their number will increase accordingly.
Therefore, for countless years, except for Alhazard, who had self-destructed, even Beruka, who believed that he was the best in force, had never had the idea of the earth.
Logically speaking, the Holy Grail War, which may cause disaster on Earth, should have been solved by Gaia, who has long since the emergence of the ceremony, but for some reason, not only Gaia, but also the human consciousness, "Alaya", has never interfered with it. They even sent many capable generals to help the group of magic envoys. Unfortunately, after three rituals, the Holy Grail still did not come.
The Holy Grail reward for the Holy Grail war is not only the magicians on Earth, but also the senior executives of the Time and Space Administration are also extremely envious. It is a wishing opportunity to realize any wish! With the Holy Grail, it is entirely possible to become the only emperor in the starry sky!
In the three Holy Grail Wars, in order to win the Holy Grail, the Time and Space Administration secretly sent a lot of elites, but none of these weakest and A-level elites were able to come back alive in the end.
Originally, the senior executives of the Time and Space Administration had already lost their minds, but who would have thought that Claude, the monster, was born out of nowhere. With even the senior executives, he might really be able to win the Holy Grail!
As for Cloud taking the Holy Grail for himself... It seems that this is not impossible to ordinary senior officials, but those big names who truly "know" Cloud understand that with Cloud's strength, they simply disdain for the Holy Grail.
You should know that over the years, the treasures that Claude brought back to the Time and Space Administration have been filled with a warehouse, and there are many treasures of the same level as the Holy Grail or even higher.
Take a step back ten thousand steps. Even if Cloud really uses the Holy Grail, it is better than using it for the indigenous people on Earth. Cloud is "his own people" no matter how you say it, and those indigenous people are all enemies who are blocking the battle for hegemony by the Time and Space Administration!
"That's it. I'll leave Meadchelda for a while recently. Lindy, take care of yourself." In the cafe, Claude put the gifts he had prepared on the table. "Also, Precia, this is a gadget I've made recently. It can absorb the curse in your body. Although it cannot cure the root cause and the amount of absorption is also upper limit, it is better than not. Moreover, I will be back in at most two weeks. In the past two weeks, I will also go to Earth to try my luck and see if the magicians there can be a way to lift the curse."
"Hey~" Lindy pouted and sucked the drink in her cup dissatisfiedly, "Oh Earth, I want to go too."
"Lindy, Lord Claude is going to work, you don't want Lord Claude to have an accident because of taking care of you." Presia was still that gentle.
Due to the contact lenses, Presia's popularity in the college has soared recently. Several confessions appear in her shoe cabinet every day. Facing these confessions, Presia refused them all without exception. The reason she used was high-sounding - focusing on academics, but in fact, only she knew the little thoughts in her heart.
I... want to go with Lord Cloud.
He secretly glanced at Claude who was drinking coffee, and then the girl who had just fallen in love blushed and lowered her head.
"Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
Lindy covered her head and lay on the table with tears in her eyes. Looking at her like this, Claude couldn't help but sigh helplessly.
"I promise, I won't disappear casually until you have enough fun."
The original palm knife turned into a stroke, and when the worry in Lindy's eyes disappeared, Claude sat down again.
"Although my memory has not been restored, since I already know who I am, I don't plan to play with anything else to disappear. Don't worry, I will come out to accompany you often in the future."
Claude meant that he would fulfill the promise he had made two years ago, but in Lindy's ears, the girl's face turned red.
“Woo…”
Confession! This must be a confession!
Huhuhuhuhu! After countless failures, I, Lindi, finally achieved the right result!
"And Precia..."
Hey? Why does Presia's name appear at this time?! Are you confessing? Since it is a confession, I will say a few more sweet words to me!
Lindy yelled in her heart, and Presia, who was beside her, raised her head in surprise at this time.
"Mr. Claude...what do you want to... say?"
Presia did not notice, her expression was full of expectations at the moment.
Lindy, who was still humiliated by Claude, did not notice the change in her friend's tone.
As for Claude... if he could see what a girl was thinking, it wouldn't be Claude!
"This is a magic weapon that can contact a family of that guy. If your condition worsens, don't hesitate and contact him directly. Although you can't completely cure it, that guy can still do it after a temporary delay."
“…”
"What's wrong?"
"No, nothing."
Presia barely pretended to smile, but she felt a burst of loss in her heart.
Claude's words of concern turned into countless swords at this moment, constantly stimulating her heart.
She also wanted to say loudly that I like you like, she also wanted to enjoy Lord Claude's care like Lindy, she also wanted to act spoiled as Lindy...
But that's not possible. Presia is just Lindy's friend. Although she knows Lord Claude, she can only be regarded as a familiar stranger at most.
Even helping her lift the curse was Lord Claude for Lindy's sake.
So... Give up...
Freeze your heart and block love...
The conversation continued, but most of it was Lindy and Claude's interaction, and Presia was just smiling, laughing unreal.
If this happens, you won’t feel the pain, right?
How is it possible?! Emotions cannot be blocked at all!
The voice in his heart sounded again, with unstoppable contempt, easily breaking through Presia's defense.
Then what do you want me to do?!
Facing her inner self, Presia has been used to it these days. She is already in her life, and even if her personality is split, it is not a big deal.
Unexpectedly, the voice in my heart didn't think about it after hearing this, and answered quickly like what I had eaten for breakfast today.
Of course, I'm snatching my sweetheart! It doesn't matter, I'll help you! Just like helping the previous masters... (To be continued...)
