Ability name The Tale of Genji

Thanks to the Fuyuki merchants who were still working hard late at night, Yuan Xiwu finally calmed down after eating dessert.Nakahara also adjusted the camera so that Osamu Dazai could see the whole room.Yuan Xiwu was sitting on a chair, her legs couldn't reach the ground, and she was eating cake with puffy cheeks.

Osamu Dazai looked at it with his chin resting on the other side of the screen for a while, and said with emotion.

"Mr. Sen is ecstatic."

Zhongyuan Zhongye: "..."

Suddenly, I thought that even the leader should be on guard!

"So, can you explain the situation to me?" Osamu Dazai leaned back, "I urgently obtained some information on magicians. There are many rumors about the Holy Grail War, but they are very vague. Also, Yugiri Now...is it a girl?"

Yuan Xiwu, who was eating the cake, swallowed hard and raised her head suddenly.

"How could it be! This attire is just the result of relying... Mr. Dazai, do you have a pity expression?!"

"Yes."

Originally, he thought he had finally found the person to die for.

"..."

Yuan Xiwu was aggrieved by Osamu Dazai.However, although his thinking has degenerated to a young age, his mentality is very mature, and when he talks about business, he becomes serious.

"Murasaki Shikibu." He said softly, "The Heroic Spirit attached to me is Caster, whose name is Murasaki Shikibu. In my current state, I am a pseudo-Servant with human flesh and blood, but I can use the power of the Heroic Spirit."

This is of course the result of Murasaki Shikibu's voluntary concession, because under normal circumstances, the pseudo-servant will be dominated by the consciousness of the heroic spirit.

"Hmm." Osamu Dazai thought deeply, "Actually, this is considered an advantage, but also a disadvantage."

The disadvantage is very obvious. After the heroic spirit is damaged, it can be healed directly by the magician. Yuan Xiwu, who is of flesh and blood, must not be able to do this.There are benefits, of course. If it is really a heroic spirit who is summoned, it must have its own ideas and persistence, and it may not be willing to fully follow Dazai Osamu's plan, which would be too troublesome.

Overall, the pros outweigh the cons.

"If it's for healing, I can also use the reversal technique." Yuan Xiwu raised the fork, "There are other abilities that can be used, and they have been strengthened."

This is really good news.

Dazai Osamu was perfecting his plan in his mind while searching for information on "Purora Shikibu".The biography of the existence named "Purora Shikibu" was presented to him, and his initial plan was almost completed.

Zi Shibu, a song fairy in the middle ages, is very vague about his life.Some sources say that she wrote a unique and beautiful book, but this book has not survived, only a title survives.

Osamu Dazai's iris-colored eyes slowly opened wide——

"Genji... the story..."

It actually has the same name as Yuan Xiwu's ability!

Now is not the time to pursue this, Osamu Dazai calmed down, and he issued the first order first.

"Take the Command Seal."

It's a pity that one of the three command spells was used up, which is equivalent to losing a lot of magic power.But this is also unavoidable, Osamu Dazai watched as Nakahara Nakaya dragged the young man who was entangled by the cursed bird over, showing the back of his hand.

——It is a flower-shaped Command Spell. It looks like a Xiwu flower, but a piece of filament is missing.

"Caster, you're a magus, right? It should be fine to transfer the Command Seals?"

"Ok!"

"Transfer quickly, restore the magic power, I have a better strategy."

***

The so-called better strategy...

The commercial street at night is still crowded with people, tired office workers, stylishly dressed men and women... but there are not many children, because there have been frequent cases of missing children recently, most of the children are restrained by their parents and are not allowed to go out at night.

But almost everyone will involuntarily slow down when they pass by the plain colorful billboard.

——There stood a beautiful girl.

The sweet and expensive dresses did not dilute her well-born temperament, but created a striking contrast.She even wore a plush painter's hat on her head, with black hair and purple pupils. She was looking down at her phone, as if she was waiting for someone.

"That..." A male office worker tentatively asked, "Miss, do you need any help?"

"If you are separated from your family, or if you need money..."

Yuan Xiwu heard Mr. Dazai's laughter coming from the miniature earphone, he sighed helplessly in his heart, he couldn't remember how many people he hit up.The others are just pretending. According to Mr. Dazai's instructions, Genyugiri must be eye-catching enough, and it is best to make a group or even more participants of the Holy Grail War notice him.

There is no place more suitable than Commercial Street. Judging from the number of people who spoke to him, the purpose of tonight has almost been achieved.

So he shook his head lightly, with an elegant demeanor, and when he was about to speak, a voice from the side came in.

"...she was with me."

The office workers saw a young man walking slowly. Although his orange hair was tied low, most of it was still loosely scattered on his shoulders.Wearing a Western-style top hat, but wearing a haori kimono, it looks like it came out of the Meiji era.

The office worker saw the expressionless girl showing a faint but trusting smile.

"You're here." She didn't call the other party's name, but a feeling of intimacy emerged spontaneously, "Have you bought everything yet?"

"Ah." The young man responded, and then he was apologetic, "Have you waited long?"

"Not long."

It looks like... a famous flower has a master?The office worker sighed in frustration, stepped aside, and watched the girl and the young man walk away together.As the girl walked around, her black hair was fluttering, she raised her hand wearing a silver sheepskin glove and gently flicked it.

The weather... doesn't seem too cold?Have you started wearing gloves yet?

"In this way, the play is over." In the hidden room, Dazai Osamu put on headphones and laughed in a low voice, "Now let's see, whoever has more eyes and ears will find you first."

Osamu Dazai's move is to test the intelligence capabilities of the masters.He preliminarily judged that only those magicians with deep foundations and strong magic skills would discover Genyukiri who suddenly appeared in Fuyuki City at the first time.

The result was as he expected.

"Teacher." Kotomine Kirei's Assassin was following, "I found traces of other participants."

"Can you determine which ride it is?"

"Preliminary judgment, the opponent's heroic spirit is compact and should be good at close combat."

"Very good, then Caster can be temporarily ruled out."

Caster, a magician, even if he had some melee ability, he wouldn't focus on it.

Also making judgments were the Lancer camp that relied on familiars to monitor the situation, and Emiya Kiritsugu from the Saber camp.

"It doesn't look like an orthodox magician, but an ordinary human being chosen by the Holy Grail."

Kenneth looked at the screen sent back by the familiar, and he didn't have any ill feeling towards the girl master. Fang Tong was full of noble aura from a famous family. Even if he wasn't a magician, he still made Kenneth, who was also from a famous family, look at him differently.

Unfortunately, this is the Holy Grail War.

"What's the matter, Kenneth?"

Probably because he was silent for a while, his fiancée Sola asked.Kenneth shook his head slightly, and when facing his fiancée, a warm smile appeared on his always strict face.

"Sora, I was just thinking."

"If we have a daughter later, we will also train her to be such a noble lady."

Obviously it was such a topic full of expectations, but Sola smiled as if he was a little bit reluctant, and didn't answer.Kenneth only thought that she was nervous before the battle, and quickly shifted his attention.

"There seems to be movement at the Tohsaka house."

***

"Mr. Dazai, there is a follower following, and the breath is very weak. If the magic thread is not arranged nearby in advance, you may not be aware of it." Yuan Xiwu said softly, "It should be Assassin."

"……really weird."

"what?"

Osamu Dazai looked at the other screen, which was connected to Yuan Xiwu's almost pervasive cursed bird.

"If Assassin is following you, then who is invading Tohsaka's house now?"

Yuan Xiwu was taken aback for a moment, and immediately synchronized with the Curse Bird's perspective.Sure enough, the assassin launched an attack on the Tohsaka family, and was finally killed by the golden light.

On the first night... out?

wrong!

"By mistake, I seem to have found the opponent's hole card." Zhongyuan Zhong was not used to raising his sleeves, so he just folded his arms, "It's really good luck."

Osamu Dazai thought about it and asked.

"How lucky is Xiwu?"

"A+."

"..."

The case is solved.

In fact, Yuan Xiwu's value was floating at the beginning. He knew that the lucky value was originally E, but for some reason, it has soared to A+ now.

Maybe it was really unlucky for him to meet Mr. Mori, but does the change in lucky value mean...

Was the Holy Grail War a turning point for him?

Putting aside these distracting thoughts for the time being, Yuan Xiwu paid attention to the stealthy Assassin and asked.

"Mr. Dazai, now..."

"Leave him alone, he will leave in a while."

"Yes."

Yuan Xiwu absolutely trusts Mr. Dazai, and his mind seems to still be echoing the firm words of Mr. Dazai when he made the plan the night before——

[The command spell is transferred to Chuya, but he is not a magician, you have to figure out your own way of magic power. 】

This is no problem, Caster could have obtained magic power through other means, even a huge amount of magic power.Genyekiri inherited the knowledge of Heroic Spirit Murasaki Shikibu, and he planned to use Fuyuki's spiritual veins to build a magic furnace.

[The general strategy of the entire Holy Grail War, I have already formulated it, and it can be summed up in one word... Guess what it is? 】

Chuya Zhongyuan: "...Chong?"

Genyuki & Osamu Dazai: "Go!"

[Wake me up, slug.It is true that as a human being, your "filthy" form can touch the ceiling, but our opponents are those heroic spirits. 】

[With magic supplies, you can keep fighting and maintain a strong phantom of the past. 】

[It's no good to head-to-head. 】

[So in the early days, before about three riders and one rider collapsed, you all have to implement a tactic. 】

The evening wind blew the girl's long hair, she took off her gloves, and Assassin, who was hiding in the shadows, could clearly see the pattern of Command Seals on the back of her hand.The heroic spirit in a youthful posture folded his arms, and the red light flashed all over his body.

"My lord, a master and a servant have been confirmed." Assassin reported, and then he received the command from the master.

"Choose the opportunity to assassinate the Master."

"Yes."

Osamu Dazai, who was wearing headphones, squinted his iris-colored eyes. There were stacks of documents under his feet, and several bright screens in front of him.Some fast food was piled up in a mess on the corner of the table. After staying up all night, there was no fatigue on his face, only vague excitement.

Isn't this... too interesting?

Let him compete with these ambitious masters and these heroes in human history.Isn't defeating these people the same as demonstrating the incompetence of human beings and history?

Now he has taken the first risky move.

[Servant and Master, swap identities. 】
