Hey Timothy Grail

(Ah...what I saw...wasn't this thing.)

That wasn't the blushing thing Matthew saw when he first met Tricia.

It is a strange decoration, with an eyeball-like pattern drawn in the center of the blue glass, as if it is staring at us.

Fang Han put the ornament back on the desk again,

"Besides, there is one more thing I want to ask you."

"Although you said it was because of Animsfia's investigation, you still know too much detail about the Holy Grail War. If possible, can you tell me what happened?"

"It's not a big deal."

"No matter how trivial details."

"Ah this..."

Olga Marie was lost in thought.

As if looking into the distance, she spoke slowly after a long time.

"...It was my former father, Maris Billy Animsfia, who said it."

Beautiful lips said so.Olga Marie's father is the current Lord of Astronomy (Animsfia).It is the third Lord Fang Han knows after Kong Ming and that open-minded old woman Lord Baru Yereta.One of the twelve kings who rule the Clock Tower.

"He said that Fuyuki's Great Grail is defective."

"Oh, the Great Holy Grail is defective?"

Fang Han nodded and repeated.

Indeed, the Fuyuki Great Holy Grail after being polluted by Xiaoan has no power to fulfill any wishes at all, it is just a fake.

Lixiang seemed to be thinking about this question too, thinking of his own experience at singularity F, so he asked:

"What does it mean?"

"I don't know either. For a while, Dad desperately investigated the Holy Grail War in which the ancient monarch El-Melloi was killed, but he finally came to this conclusion and then gave up. ... That's why I feel that the Holy Grail War should be a lie. Although some tricks are used to summon heroic spirits, they are not extraordinary things that can be used to make wishes. I always thought that was what it meant.”

Olga Marie raised her head and said word by word.

"What about you, do you know what it means? As someone who has experienced the Fifth Holy Grail War?"

"...It's about the same as you imagined."

Fang Han nodded slowly.

The silver-haired girl's eyes wandered, and she said so abruptly.

"Like an afterimage."

"You mean the Holy Grail War?"

"I mean everything. Everything I touched on this train journey was like an afterimage."

Olga Marie replied.

She squinted her eyes and cast her eyes on the afternoon scenery galloping out of the window.

In the weak sunlight in winter, the passing shadows are also so faint.After breaking away from the son of Einnashe, the train passed through mostly open fields, as if the train was moving forward in parting the green ocean.

"The Holy Grail War you experienced was the same, the son of Einnashe was also the same, and the Rail Zeppelin was also the same. They are all like afterimages that have been left behind. Obviously the master has already gone away, but the shadow is left behind. Now. Knowing that the only thing left is the shadow, why is everyone still so reluctant to part with it. How stupid."

The girl's words made such an illusion appear before Mash's eyes.

The body of Einnashe.

The original manager of the Rail Zeppelin.

Both parties were present in the conversation, leaving only shadows in this incident.Not only them, but also the magic eyes of bubbles that make the shadows of the past emerge.Everyone is bound by the past, even though the main body has been farther and farther away from them, they are still played by the shadow.

"...afterimage?"

Fang Han repeated again.

"What do you mean?"

"...Yes, this is it. This is the second part. The decisive gear."

Then he put his hand on his forehead, and slowly stroked his face, letting out a low and tax-evading laugh.

"As expected of...the successor of the astronomical department and the director of Chaldea. Even if it is not out of reason, your point of view is still overlooking the world."

"Well, what, what are you doing. Don't suddenly call others hot!"

"But to verify this answer... ah, damn it, at least if I can get a map of the clock tower,"

Seemingly concerned about what he said, the flushed Olga Marie asked.

"You need a map?"

"That's right. I need a map that includes the status of the spiritual land. Although I should be able to figure out a way by relying on the latest satellite photos alone, considering the situation of the Rail Zeppelin, the corresponding data of the Netherworld... ..."

"I can prepare."

The girl said bluntly.

Yes.

This kind of thing, the observatory is best at it!

029 The welcome auction begins!

"What do you mean?"

"I said I can prepare. In short, as long as there is the reality of this planet and the coordinate information of the inner world that overlaps with the reality, it will be fine, right?"

After speaking, Olga Marie took out a machine consisting of lenses and gears from the luggage at hand, about the size of a palm.

I am!

Jia has an old man, just like a treasure.

The old man sincerely does not deceive me.

Fang Han and Li Xiang opened their eyes wide, it seemed to be a magic dress similar to a projector.

"Bright."

With the singing of Olga Marie, light shines from the lens.

A deep voice sounded from the dress, and a globe-like illusion was reflected in the center of the room.

There are a few beams of light flowing on the surface of the phantom, and Olga Marie raised her hand to expand it, and the surrounding area of ​​England where we are now emerged.

"……This is,"

"It is one of the many prototypes of the virtual environment model produced by the Astronomy Department (Animsfia). Although it is an illusion, it can only be used to confirm the spiritual veins and spiritual lands, but it should be enough for you. What's the matter, it's not surprising. The law department should have something similar. Otherwise, they wouldn't be able to confirm the frequency of use of the patented magic."

Looking at Mr. Fang Han who was amazed in a low voice, Olga Marie puffed up her chest, with a smug smile on her lips.

The masters of another world, Chaldea, stared intently at the phantom in front of them, and then nodded.

"... Ah, I understand the truth. But I really didn't expect that our astronomical department would have such a treasure. It should be the prototype of Sheba."

"What is Sheba? I don't seem to understand very well, but isn't our earth a planet? And in the final analysis, our purpose is not actually the celestial body itself. It's just that if you want to understand this planet more deeply, Solving the surrounding problems first can be said to be a shortcut, so if that’s the case, then as long as you reproduce—”

Halfway through speaking, the girl suddenly covered her mouth.

"...Miss Olga Marie?"

"That's our Jia's secret... I didn't say anything! Closer to home, if this thing is okay, then you should investigate it quickly."

"it is good."

After speaking, Fang Han also turned his gaze to the magnified surface.

The slender fingers flicked the white light flowing on the surface of the sphere, and stopped at the position where we were probably.Fang Han kept nodding while taking notes on the notepad, writing down the numbers as if he was doing a check.

"That's right, that's right. At least the reason is clear. The murderer's purpose is now very clear. Then..."

Fang Han's voice sounded far away.

Looking at the passing scenery outside the window, the ice and snow forest has disappeared, only scenes of tranquil pastoral scenery pass by, and Fang Han's thoughts are also sinking into the unreachable depths.

Finally, he let out a tax-dodging laugh.

"...tsk tsk."

"senior?"

"I see. Is it a matter of order?"

The smile on his face was far from the past.

The white teeth are as creepy as the fangs of ferocious beasts, as if they are deceiving demon gods.

"Ah, I finally caught it...hahaha, why didn't I notice it before? This is not a mystery at all. It was obvious from the beginning that it was provocative. .

Ah, that's right, there is no way to think about why the summoned Hephaestion is a woman.But it doesn't really matter.It doesn't matter why Hephaistion didn't show up in the King's Army.After more than 2000 years, it is not surprising that there are any secrets or mistakes in the process of inheritance.Therefore, the question that should be considered is more basic. "

He paused, then whispered as if chewing his own answer.

"...Why, that person has to report the name Hephaistion."

"The name is nothing more than an afterimage of past events. No, an even more hopeless wreck."

"Why is the other party obsessed with this?"

"What are you mumbling about?"

Olga Marie frowned in surprise, but Fang Han just shook his head.

"Afterwards, I will explain together. Unfortunately, if no physical evidence is presented, this speculation will probably not be believed. ... However, I don't know if I can catch up."
