A certain sword soul's infinite journey

Chapter 462 Dragon Slayer's Broken Sword
Neon Country, Fuyuki City.

In the high-end residential area close to the city center, there are British classical-style villas everywhere. You can see exquisite and luxurious alloy garden doors carved with cloud patterns, and lush flowers and trees behind the doors. Pedestrians make the whole villa area look extraordinarily quiet and pleasant.

And in the center of this villa area, there is a manor with a larger area.

The black iron fence tightly surrounds the entire house, and the lush thorn bushes cling to the root of the iron fence to guard against thieves who may appear over the wall.

A little further in, tall trees are mixed with shrubs from time to time, standing tall behind the wall, some with luxuriant branches and leaves hanging from the top of the iron fence, covering the classical style single-family villas in the manor, making the wall Pedestrians passing by can only guess the beauty of its shape from the eaves tiles.

It was strange to say that it was already January, yet the flowers, plants and trees in the manor were still so flourishing that there was not even the slightest sign of withering or sprouting.

Not only this manor, but also other surrounding villas.

In this regard, the owner of the property and the community explained that there is a warm underground river in the ground of the community, which is why this strange scene that seems to be out of season appears.

The vast majority of people believed this explanation, and only a handful of owners knew the truth behind it, including the owner of the largest manor.

At dusk, a girl with twin ponytails wearing black knee socks, a school uniform lining, a red long-sleeved blouse and a black skirt on the outside returned to the gate of the manor, holding a schoolbag in her fair and slender left hand, blue He glanced at the house covered by leaves behind the door, took a deep breath, and opened his mouth slowly.

"Verfahren, Drei!"

A short but powerful spell was spit out from the girl's mouth, and a stream of light that was hard to detect with the naked eye flashed across the black garden door in front of her, and the locked iron shaft behind the door suddenly opened silently.

The door has been opened, but the girl in front of the door did not enter immediately.

She stood in front of the door with a complicated expression, as if she was engaged in some fierce ideological struggle.

But in the end, the girl still made a decision. She took a long breath, pushed open the door with a resolute expression, and walked into the familiar manor she grew up with.

Walking into this gate, the girl's identity has changed.

Outside the door, she is a second-year student at the private Hokunhara Academy, and inside the door, she is one of the three imperial families, the current head of the Tosaka family of the famous magic family-Rin Tosaka.

"Tonight is the most critical moment."

The girl pursed her lips slightly, and walked into the house muttering to herself.

As soon as he entered the door, the phone at the corner flickered non-stop.

"It's really strange that there is a recording of the phone call...Let me think about it, the people who know my phone number can be counted on one hand, so it should be you, Kirei!"

Rin Tohsaka walked to press the play button while talking to himself.

"Rin, it's me."

"Although I think you should understand very well, I still want to remind you that tomorrow is the deadline, and all Masters must be collected as soon as possible. Now there are only two jobs left for Archer and Saber. Summon servants as soon as possible. , activate the command spell."

"Of course, if you don't want to participate in the Holy Grail War, that's a different matter. If you still cherish life, you should rush to the church to contact me as soon as possible. It will take some time to dispatch the reserve magicians—"

"beep--"

Rin Tohsaka curled his lips slightly, and pressed the end button with his fingers without hesitation.

"It still takes time... Don't think that I don't know. You have as many preparation magicians as you need. As for participating in the Holy Grail War, I don't need you to tell me!"

The Holy Grail is a legendary treasure that can fulfill all wishes of the holder.

About once every 60 years, the spiritual power in the leylines of Fuyuki City will accumulate enough to support the birth of the Holy Grail, but in the end, only a pair of servants and masters can get the Holy Grail to fulfill their wishes. The master leads the servants of the heroic spirits they summoned, and the war broke out in order to obtain the ownership of the Holy Grail, that is, the Holy Grail War in Fuyuki City.

Once the spiritual power in the leylines has been accumulated, the next step is to choose a suitable master, that is, the Master. After all the seven masters and heroic spirits are all present, the Holy Grail War will begin.

Today, the Holy Grail War has lasted for nearly 200 years.

Just ten years after the Fourth Holy Grail War, the Fifth Holy Grail War was started again.

This is because the Fourth Holy Grail War ended when most of the magic power accumulated in the Great Holy Grail was unused, so it didn't take much time to replenish the magic power again.

As for the quota of the seven masters...

Generally speaking, the three royal families of Einzbern, Matou, and Tohsaka are basically determined by default. As the current head of the Tohsaka family, Rin Tohsaka will naturally summon followers to participate in the Holy Grail War.

Summoning a servant of a heroic spirit to sign a contract generally requires a medium related to the heroic spirit of choice, that is, holy relics, that is, swords, armor, coat of arms, and even bone remains that the heroic spirit once held, which are extremely expensive.

"It would be great if father also left something related to Saber."

After a while of rummaging through the box, the girl in the red dress and black dress sighed with her hands on her hips.

"Forget it! It doesn't matter, even if I don't need to rely on that kind of thing, I will definitely be able to summon the strongest Saber!"

Rin Tohsaka cheered himself up resolutely. After taking a deep breath, he got busy in the basement that had been transformed into a magic house.

Time passed quickly, and the figure of the girl came and went back and forth in the basement.

Finally, the time came to one forty in the morning.

"Engrave four receding formations to surround the summoning formation... good!"

After drawing the magic circle handed down from the Tosaka family, Rin Tosaka stood up and let out a long sigh of relief.

The magic circle that was originally drawn with blood, but this time she used dissolved magic gems. This behavior was considered extravagant in the Holy Grail Wars of the past. Even Rin Tohsaka spent half of the accumulated gems.

"The preparations are complete, and the next thing is to wait until two o'clock in the morning when my magic power reaches its peak."

"Participating in the Holy Grail War is my unavoidable duty as the head of the Tohsaka family and a magician... No, even for the sake of these gems, there is absolutely no room for error!"

"Unfortunately, no suitable holy relic has been found so far..."

The girl in the red dress and black dress sighed, while looking at the prepared brain on the table.
At this moment, there was a sudden sound from the front right corner, as if some metal object fell from a height to the ground.

This surprised Tohsaka Rin. She worked so hard to draw a magic circle with dissolved gems, but she couldn't be hit by some broken copper and iron. It was two o'clock in the morning, and she had no time to go. Ready for the second luxurious large magic circle.

Rin Tohsaka carefully stepped over the pattern on the ground and came to the place where the sound came from.

Looking at the metal object with a thick-covered book on the ground, Rin Tohsaka was slightly startled, stretched out his hand involuntarily, and picked up the thing.

"Is this...a broken sword?"

"Strange, why didn't I see it just now..."

A trace of doubt flashed in Tohsaka Rin's heart, but then, her gaze was deeply attracted by the broken sword, and even the doubt that had just arisen was thrown behind her.

Without him, this Broken Sword has too distinctive features!
Its blade is covered with all kinds of deep or shallow scratches, but there is no sign of any scars on the hilt, only the spots of rust corroded by the years are branded on it.

After discovering this, Tohsaka Rin immediately concluded that the former owner of this broken sword must be a powerful swordsman who has experienced many battles!

Thinking of this, Rin Tohsaka couldn't help but feel his heart move, and there was a gleam of splendor in his blue eyes.

"If I use it to summon, maybe..."

"No, no, I can't be so hasty. I have to find out the origin of this broken sword first. If this thing is really left by my father, then he must have an attached history introduction...Let me find it!"

Rin Tohsaka immediately put down the broken sword, and rummaged through the boxes again.

Time passed by every minute and every second, and when the set alarm clock "beeped", Rin Tohsaka finally found a few words left by his father in a thick hardcover notebook.

"found it!"

"Let me take a look... In a small town beside Lake Mjosa in Norway, the broken sword has been enshrined by the townspeople for generations. The locals call it the Dragon Slayer—that's great!"

Tohsaka Rin's eyes lit up immediately, and a rich ecstasy filled her chest.

Time is running out, and she has no time to read the following description, but even if there are only three words, the dragon slayer, it has already satisfied Tohsaka Rin.

No matter which era or myth, the brave who can slay dragons must be the most powerful swordsman!

"I didn't expect to have such a discovery at the last moment. Sure enough, I am the one who deserves the destiny in this Holy Grail War!"

Rin Tohsaka was delighted, but the movements of his hands were not sloppy at all.

She quickly placed the broken sword in the center of the magic circle, then jumped out of the magic circle with agility, stood in front of the circle and clenched the gemstone in her hand, slowly lifting it flat.

"Sterling silver and iron, the Grand Duke who made the covenant with the cornerstone..."

"Be full, be full, be full, be full, be full! Go round and round, followed by five."

"Declaration."

"Your body listens to my command, and my life rests on your sword. If you follow the destination of the Holy Grail, follow this will, this reason, respond!"

"I swear here, I am the one who accomplishes all good deeds in the world, and I am the one who punishes all evil deeds. You are the seven heavens wrapped in the three spirits of words, who come here on the wheel of restraint, the guardian of the scales!"

As the spell fell, the magic circle on the ground gave a strong response, a strong wind blew up, and an incomparably dazzling silver light bloomed from the dissolved gemstones, illuminating the entire basement like daytime.

Even Rin Tohsaka, who temporarily lost his vision due to the spell, can feel the powerful response of the magic power under him.

"Perfect summoning will definitely get the strongest servant!"

The girl was so excited, she tightly held her right hand, which was slightly tingling from the Command Seal, and patiently waited for the recovery of her visual senses.

Just a few seconds later, the vision that had been shut down by magic power and spells finally returned. The girl opened her eyes apprehensively. The strange light emitted by the gemstones on the ground looked at the tall figure slowly gathering in the formation.

It was a tall man with black eyes and black hair, wearing a mighty and luxurious silver armor. Numerous mysterious fiery red inscriptions were engraved on the surface of the armor, exuding a strong sense of fiery coercion. The sharp curved protrusions on the waist armor and arms Starting from the sharp steel thorns at the joints, every part seems to be designed for fighting.

Further up, there is a handsome face with Asian characteristics, black hair fluttering in the strong wind attached to the magic circle, a pair of dark eyes are like the deep starry sky at night, shining with countless silver stars.

The violent wind gradually subsided, and the man with black hair and silver armor lowered his eyes, and looked at the dazed girl in front of him.

In the next second, the man with black hair and silver armor spoke slowly.

"Girl..."

"You n...cough, you are my Master?"
