My fiancée Yukino

The reason for going there now was naturally to meet El-Melloi II, also known as Weber Velvet.
At the same time, Luo Bai was also thinking about something: Waver's current strength was really not worthy of his status as a monarch, and there were many people in the Clock Tower watching him.
After thinking for a moment, Luo Bai looked at the person sitting with Artoria.
Grey, who was with him, asked, "Grey, is your master trying to improve his strength? To be honest, given his current situation, he's likely to encounter dangerous events every ten days or so. I really think he might lose his life one day."
In the events of the case file alone, specifically the upcoming Mystic Eyes Train incident, Waver was severely injured by Hephaestion, summoned by the Iskandar Relic, and remained in bed for a long time.
If he hadn't received timely treatment, this guy would most likely be dead.
Although Webber's outstanding qualities as a magician lie in his observation and insight as a magic researcher, he unfortunately inherited the title of monarch, which makes his strength a constant threat to him.
Considering that Gray is studying under Waver, and Artoria doesn't intend to take Gray away, Luo Bai has to consider improving Waver's strength.
Otherwise, if something were to happen to Webber during the incident, Grey would most likely also be in danger.
Faced with Luo Bai's question, Grey was momentarily at a loss for words.
Reines, however, helped answer the question.
"As for you, my sworn brother, at this stage, relying on your own magic power and magic tricks to improve your strength is already limited. After all, magicians do value bloodlines and lineage. In this respect, you are far behind. However, with your Mystic Code and your own exceptional observation skills, you can still avoid some dangers. What, do you feel that's not enough?"
“Of course, especially considering what we’re about to face, I think he needs more ways to protect himself.” Luo Bai said, stroking his chin. “I just don’t know if the method to make him a pseudo-Servant will succeed.”
"Similar to... a follower?"
Reines' eyes widened as she looked at Luo Bai with great interest and asked, "Oh my, you can actually do that? If you can really succeed, then I will truly believe that my sworn brother can live a little longer!"
It seems even Reines thinks Waver can't last long on his own.
In the past, Webber resolved many incidents with the help of Grey's influence and his connections.
Luo Bai nodded: "I have some ideas. There's an 80% chance of success. I also know a Heroic Spirit who has a high compatibility with Waver. If we can successfully summon him, he can possess Waver's body without taking over his consciousness. He will only lend his power to Waver. Of course, Waver's consent is required. That's why I was thinking of going to meet this Lord El-Melloi II."
Artoria finally understood and looked at Luo Bai, asking, "Is it because of me?"
Luo Bai shrugged: "Who told you not to take Grey with you? Otherwise, I wouldn't have to worry about this. But, I guess Grey herself wouldn't agree, right?"
Grey nodded vigorously: "That's right, it was my master who brought me out of my hometown, took me as his disciple, and taught me so many things. I can't abandon my master!"
Grey has a really good personality; she's grateful and repays kindness.
Normally, with Gray around and her Holy Lance Mystic Code, most problems could be handled, but the Type-Moon world is never short of outrageous enemies.
If they were to encounter each other someday, Grey certainly wouldn't be able to focus on protecting Waver.
Luo Bai lightly tapped his temple and said, "Let me study it first."
After saying that, he closed his eyes and began to work on his inhibitory control.
Within her consciousness, accompanied by Luo Bai's call, a ray of light appeared, transforming into a white-haired loli.
Looking at this adorable, emotionless, white-haired loli, Luo Bai asked, "Excuse me, are you Gaia or Alaya?"
"I am Gaia, the chosen one of the world. What brings you here?"
The world is favoring us?
Luo Bai felt that Gaia seemed to have revealed the truth about something he had been wondering about.
However, he didn't think much of it and asked directly, "I want to ask if I can continue to summon Heroic Spirits to turn people into pseudo-Servants?"
“Weber Velvet, is that right?”
Gaia had clearly been observing this area and directly voiced Luo Bai's thoughts.
"Yes, I can grant you access to the Throne of Heroes. You can communicate with the Heroic Spirit named Zhuge Kongming. As long as he agrees, there will be no problem. However, there is one thing: don't go too far. The Heroic Spirits in the Throne of Heroes have many responsibilities."
"Of course, I don't need that many Heroic Spirits to help me. By the way, can I ask for help when we fight Goetia later?"
"That's fine, you can communicate with each other yourselves. The burning of civilization is not something the Restraint Force wants to see either."
After saying that, without giving Luo Bai a chance to stay, he raised his hand and sent a point of light into Luo Bai's body, which also drove Luo Bai out of this space and back to reality.
As soon as Luo Bai opened his eyes, he found that everyone was looking at him.
"what happened?"
Artoria said, "After you closed your eyes, Medea said that your consciousness had fallen into a deep sleep."
"To be precise, we went to a special place." Snapping his fingers, Luo Bai said, "It's confirmed. Summoning a Heroic Spirit is indeed feasible. As long as El-Melloi II agrees, I can directly perform the Heroic Spirit possession operation for him."
Reines laughed happily: "That's wonderful! But Luo Bai, these aren't free, are they?"
"Of course, but I'm not the kind of person who asks for an exorbitant amount. You can assess the value yourselves and pay me accordingly. Like Rin, I only accept gold."
"no problem!"
Reines readily agreed.
This is a pseudo-Servant. If successful, El-Melloi II's strength will be greatly enhanced, and his position as monarch will be more secure. No one will dare to cause trouble.
Correspondingly, the family can also achieve better development.
Looking at Luo Bai, Luvia asked curiously, "Um, may I ask if it's only possible for the monarch to become a pseudo-Servant, but others can?"
"What, you're interested too?"
"Of course, this is the power of a Heroic Spirit; no magician would be uninterested!"
"As for the others, let me think about it some more. After all, I need to find a suitable Heroic Spirit and communicate with them."
Book 1: Chapter 615 Meeting Weber (1/2)
Those who can obtain possession by a Heroic Spirit are very rare in the entire Type-Moon universe.
There were indeed two people present: Rin and Luvia.
In the Sixth Singularity, Rin was possessed by the goddess Ishtar and, after merging with her, became a pseudo-Servant.
Luvia is the same, but she is possessed by Astraea, the goddess of justice in ancient Greek mythology.
These two individuals had a high compatibility with the two goddesses, which is why they were chosen to possess them.
For anyone else, let alone a god, even an ordinary heroic spirit would be unable to possess them.
In the Type-Moon universe, there are very few other people who can become pseudo-Servants. Only Fujimura Taiga and Sakura are capable of it. One is a leopard person, and the other is Parvati.
While explaining the pros and cons of the pseudo-Servants to everyone, the car slowly arrived at Waver's residence.
After getting off the train, Luo Bai knew that the next major event in the case file was the Mystic Eye Train, where Waver's collection of Iskandar's relics had been stolen.
Upon returning, Grey happily led everyone into the house, to Webber's office, knocked on the door, and came in.
Master
"I'm back. Miss Reines and Miss Luvia are here, along with several other guests."
After hearing Grey's words, Weber composed himself and turned around, whereupon he spotted the figure he had seen ten years ago.
With his pupils dilated, Waver exclaimed in shock, "King Arthur? How is that possible?"
Artoria was also very surprised and said, "Wave Velvet? Really? It's only been ten years, how did you change like this?"
Reines covered her mouth and chuckled, "Indeed, my sworn brother's appearance has changed a lot over the years. But even so, he's still number one in the Clock Tower's 'Most Wanted Man to Hug' poll~~"
"Lenice!"
After glaring at his adopted sister, Waver looked at Artoria with a complicated expression and said, "I didn't expect that King Arthur would be summoned again after ten years. So, the Holy Grail War has begun again?"
Artoria smiled and shook her head: "No, the Holy Grail system has been completely destroyed by us, and the Holy Grail War in Fuyuki is a thing of the past."
"What? It's over?"
Waver was incredulous. He had been thinking of secretly participating if he didn't get a spot, but who would have thought that the Holy Grail War would be over before he even went to Fuyuki?
Then, Waver looked at Rin, who was standing next to Medea.
"You... I've seen some information about the Fuyuki Magician. You're the current head of the Tohsaka family, Rin Tohsaka, right?"
Rin smiled and bowed: "Greetings, Lord El-Melloi II. I am Rin Tohsaka, and this is my Servant, Caster Medea. The Holy Grail War in Fuyuki City has indeed come to a complete end. We have come here for two reasons: first, to see Gray, and second, to make some deals with the Edfeld family."
"..."
Webber was silent for a few seconds, then said to everyone, "Come in and sit down. Grey, could you please make some tea?"
"Yes, Master!"
After everyone entered Waver's office and sat down, Luo Bai and Elma introduced themselves.
After learning about Grey's origins, Waver lit a cigar, took a puff, and said with a sigh, "So that's how it is. I felt something was off from the beginning, but I never imagined it would turn out like this. So, you've come here this time to take Grey away?"
Artoria shook her head: "From a bloodline perspective, Gray is my kin, but that doesn't mean I'll control her thoughts. My sister's plan for my resurrection ritual will not succeed, and I will handle the aftermath. In the future, Gray can live the life she desires in peace. Now she is your disciple, and I hope that Waver can be her mentor and teach her well. Of course, if there are no good plans in the future, Gray can come to my side, and we can see what Gray herself wants."
Waver glanced at Gray, who was pouring tea for everyone, and nodded, saying, "I understand. As her mentor, I will teach Gray well, so you can rest assured, King Arthur. It just so happens that Reines is here now, and you are the ones who ended the Holy Grail War. I've also encountered some troubles, and I hope you can give me some advice."
Then, he took out a box and an envelope from the drawer.
“Grey should already know about my participation in the Holy Grail War ten years ago, right? This was originally where the relic that summoned Iskandar was stored. But now, the relic has been stolen, leaving only this envelope with an invitation to the Mystic Eyes Collection Train. It says that if I want to know the whereabouts of the relic, I should go there.”
"The Magic Eye Collection Train?"
Upon hearing this title, not only Luvia and Reines, but also Rin frowned.
Even Rin in Fuyuki knew some information about the Mystic Eyes Collection Train.
Weber explained step by step, "This is a train that collects all kinds of magical eyes and auctions them off once a year. The people gathered on the train are not normal people."
Upon hearing this, Grey knew that this was a very dangerous place.
"Master, are you going?"
Waver nodded and said, "I have to go. I must get back what was stolen. So, Grey, do you want to come with me to the Eye Collection Train?"
Grey looked at her master with a serious expression, nodded vigorously, and then looked towards Luo Bai.
"Mr. Luo Bai."
"Ah, I know."
Luo Bai looked at Weber, magic surged in his hands, and then a magic circle appeared above everyone's heads.
"Weber, you should recognize this magic circle, right?"
Looking at the magic circle that appeared above his head, Waver frowned: "This is... a Heroic Spirit Summoning? No, something's different."
"This is indeed a magic circle for summoning Heroic Spirits, but the difference is that it's used to summon a Heroic Spirit to possess a human body and fuse with it to become a pseudo-Servant. Of course, this isn't complete; there are many parts I haven't shown. What I want to say is that I have a way to summon a Heroic Spirit with a high compatibility with you, making you a pseudo-Servant to deal with the upcoming crisis of the Mystic Eyes Train. So, are you willing to accept this method?"
"...like a follower?"
Weber never expected that Luo Bai would bring such a method.
Without a doubt, if this could be achieved, then regardless of who the summoned Servant is, it would greatly enhance one's own strength.
After all, his own power as a magician was really insignificant.
However, Weber did not agree immediately. Instead, he looked at Luo Bai and asked, "Then, what do I need to give in return?"
Volume 1: Chapter 616 Heroic Spirit Possession, Summoning Iskandar (2/2)
Reines waved her hand and said, "Brother, you don't need to worry about this. Your improved strength will also benefit the family. I can pay for this part of the money. Just tell me if you want it or not."
Waver was surprised by Reines's generosity, but upon reflection, it made sense; after all, not just anyone could become a pseudo-Servant. Just like a medium, successful possession requires not only luck but also a high degree of compatibility.
Now that Luo Bai dares to bring it up, it proves that he has the ability in this area and can become a pseudo-servant.
Looking at Luo Bai, Waver asked, "So, I can only choose one Servant, is that right?"
“Of course, I know what you’re thinking. You probably want to summon Iskandar, right? I’m sorry, although you are his subject, it’s impossible for you to possess him. However, I think I should have a way to let you meet him, even without the relic.”
"really?"
Weber's eyes widened, and he stood up abruptly, displaying an extremely rare excitement.
Luo Bai smiled and nodded: "To be honest, I have the authority to communicate with the Throne of Heroes. Although there are many Heroic Spirits inside, I think it wouldn't be a big problem to help you find Iskandar and let you meet him. I think as a king, he would definitely want to meet his subjects ten years from now."
After taking a deep breath, Weber forced himself to calm down and sat back down on the sofa.
"I understand. I'm willing to become a pseudo-Servant. Then I'll leave it to you. Shall we begin now?"
"Of course, my time is limited. Besides going to Gray's hometown with Artoria, I also need to go back to prepare for something else, so time is quite tight."
"Then let's go to the basement."
