Started as a comics editor

Chapter 96 Comic Ends
Su Deqiang stared at the website on the screen and stood there in a daze.

Because the website has completely changed...if the website was just a comic strip site before.

At this moment, the website has basically nothing to do with comics.

Even the name of the website has changed... The icon logo is no longer "Fate/Zero", but has been replaced by "Fate/Grand Order".

The navigation menu no longer only includes characters, worlds, settings, and comics.

There are also personal centers, information... and game download sections.

This is a fully-fledged commercial website.

And below the navigation bar... is the most classic main view of "Fate/Grand Order". In the clear blue sky, a circular hole similar to a black hole is placed in the center, with clouds lingering in it, and shining light... It seems as if there is another world above the sky.

Several heroic spirits seemed to emerge from another world and appeared in the center of the main view. Of course, Artoria occupied the C position, while the other heroic spirits surrounded her.

Joan of Arc, Scathach, Attila, Mash, Mephistopheles, Henry, Darius III...

And in the lower right corner, there is something like an introduction -

[Destiny—Grand Order, Observer of the Temple of Time.]

【Lead many heroes and take back the future of mankind! 】

[An unprecedented grand battle story begins! ]

[The greatest Holy Grail War in history begins—]

"...Is this really paving the way for a game? 'Fate/Grand Order'? The greatest Holy Grail War in history?"

Su Deqiang looked at the main view, finally came to his senses, and shook his head slightly.

This game caused a lot of buzz during testing, so of course he had heard about it.

But unfortunately... he doesn't like playing games. He would discuss it with other players at the beginning, but as the plot of "Fate/Zero" became completely crazy in the later stages, he stopped paying attention.

...Is it possible this game was tested again? Those lucky players who got in were pretty excited after playing it?
He forgot.

Because he mainly reads comics, he mostly goes to forums to discuss comic plots.

In fact, most readers are like this. Later readers probably know that the fact that a third-rate painter authorized the IP to the game can no longer be changed, and the plot of the comics is not affected. Not only is it not affected, but it is even more exciting than the early stage!

Moreover, the third-rate painter had no intention of prolonging the plot to serve the game. The characters that readers liked died at any time...

Readers who originally liked the comics gradually began to focus on the comics that were about the death charge in the later stages.

As for the game, I basically didn't pay much attention to it. I just knew it existed.

Su Deqiang is a typical representative of them.

"It looks quite interesting, and the original art is beautiful, but unfortunately I don't play games, and my mind is full of "Fate/Zero" right now... I can only wish it success."

Su Deqiang glanced at it, and although he was a little moved when he saw Saber in the main view...

But he really doesn't play games, and he knows very well that game promotional pictures are one thing, and the actual game is another... No matter how good the picture is, the game may not be like this.

After all, the game can't be about players collecting these heroes, right?

So he quickly looked away and clicked on the comics section of the navigation bar.

There is no change in the comic reading section.

The last episode of "Fate/Zero" has been released.

Su Deqiang immediately put aside the game, excitedly clicked on the last chapter, leaned forward slightly, and looked at the screen.

...Tang Yao's previous life, "Fate/Zero" is the prequel to Fate Stay Night. Its ending has long been determined. For Type-Moon fans and players of the original series, there is almost no suspense.

But this is not the case for readers in this world.

The ending of this work is completely unknown to them.

The ending of Fate/Zero is a complete tragedy, with almost all the charming characters failing...

After Saber was forced by the Command Spell to destroy the Holy Grail, overflowing black mud fell from the sky, and Fuyuki City was engulfed in flames.

Faced with this hellish scene on earth, Emiya Kiritsugu completely collapsed, desperately searching for anyone alive. Even just one survivor would slightly alleviate the guilt in his heart...

The villain Kotomine Kirei survived, but he also completely transformed into a twisted antisocial person. At his mentor Tokishin's funeral, he even gave the murder weapon to his mentor's daughter, Rin Tousaka, and even became Rin's guardian...

The only one who survived and could be considered to have a good ending was Weber.

As for the heroic spirits, Gilgamesh, who only regained some favor in the battle with the emperor and was disliked by readers at other times, successfully obtained a physical body and finally stayed in the world.

But Saber returned to the Sword Hill battlefield in despair, crying bitterly and denying her own worth as a king.

This isn't really a good ending...

Su Deqiang felt a little uncomfortable, so he turned very slowly, but no matter how slowly he turned, he would eventually reach the bottom.

Soon, he finished reading.

At last.

The ending of the comic still leaves some hope.

The child that Emiya Kiritsugu saved said that he wanted to inherit Kiritsugu's ideals... to become a messenger of justice. Having inherited his ideals, Emiya Kiritsugu slowly closed his eyes.

On the desolate and gloomy Sword Hill battlefield, covered with dark clouds, the sun suddenly broke through the clouds... and shone on Saber's dazed face.

"..."

Su Deqiang watched Saber look up for the last time, and saw a large page with sunlight breaking through the clouds. He slowly let go of the mouse. Although he felt a little uncomfortable... he still couldn't help but sigh.

wonderful.

It's really wonderful.

This story is really great.

But...

Su Deqiang looked at the screen and smacked his lips, feeling a little unsatisfied...

With this ending, why does it always feel like the story is not finished yet?!
Gilgamesh is alive! And Kotomine Kirei is a joyous pervert! And how could that adorable loli, Tousaka Rin, be under the guardianship of such a pervert?

its not right.

Is this the end?
The more Su Deqiang thought about it, the more he felt something was wrong. He opened the comment section below the comic and found that many readers had the same idea as him.

Is this the end? Is there going to be a second part? Or what? I feel like the story can continue!

"Yes! We can go on! The Fifth Holy Grail War?"

[The fate of children like Tohsaka Rin, Emiya Shirou, Illya, and Matou Sakura seems to be unknown... a sequel?]

【…】

Su Deqiang looked at the comments with an expression of "as expected", then closed the page and was about to go to the forum to see what other readers had to say.

But before leaving, he suddenly thought of the portrait he saw when he opened the website, and paused.

Although I don't like playing games, let's take a look...

With this thought.

At the same time, driven by the feeling of wanting more, Su Deqiang hesitated for a moment, returned to the homepage of the website, and prepared to click on "Fate/Grand Order" to take a look.

But just as he returned to the homepage, out of habit, he subconsciously slid the mouse wheel.

As soon as he interacted with the scroll wheel, the page automatically pulled down... and the second main view appeared.

"..."

besides?

Su Deqiang was stunned. He really didn’t notice this just now... Huh?

He looked at the second game main view on the website. Just as this thought came to his mind, he saw those familiar figures on the main view.

This time it's not the main view of the game's main line, but the main view of the game's observation line...

A boy with short brown hair, a beautiful girl with twin ponytails, a beautiful girl with short purple hair, and Saber...

and many more……

this is not……

Su Deqiang immediately looked at the lower right corner of the main view.

There is also an introduction in the lower right corner of this main view——

[Fate - Grand Order, the Fifth Holy Grail War.]

[Seven magicians, led by their summoned heroic spirits, battle for the ownership of the Holy Grail.]

[The victor who survives in the end will take ownership of the Holy Grail——This is the Holy Grail War in Fuyuki City! ]

Emiya Shirou, the adopted son of Emiya Kiritsugu, accidentally made a contract with a Servant and was forced into a Holy Grail War...

[The Fifth Holy Grail War officially begins——]

"?????"

Su Deqiang looked at the introduction and suddenly jumped up from his chair.

ha! ?
