Chapter 20 The Magician's War

Weekend mornings at Akiyama House are routine time for watching the news.

"Let's take a look at the social news. On the evening of xx, a gas explosion occurred in the xx district of Fuyuki City, Japan. A total of xx people were injured. Fortunately, no one was killed. The local police are still investigating the cause of the accident..." On the news, the hostess was outlining an accident.

"Gas accident? There are quite a lot of incidents recently..." Mrs. Akiyama remembered the attack on the students here not long ago.

"Over there in Fuyuki City, the Holy Grail War has started again." Counting the time, Xiao Man's mother-in-law thought of something.

"Holy Grail War? Those non-stop magicians..." Xiaoman's father didn't have a good impression of magicians.

The Holy Grail War revolves around the miracle of the "Holy Grail", a war between magicians and heroic spirits.According to rumors, the Holy Grail can grant any wish.

As the city with the most magical power in Japan, the magic power of the Holy Grail will be sufficient every 60 years and reappear in Fuyuki City.The Holy Grail will automatically select magicians who have the ability to obtain it and give them command spells. The magicians use the power of the command spells and the Holy Grail to summon the celebrities in mythology and history, that is, "heroic spirits", and then start battles.There are a total of seven combinations of such masters and servants, but only one group can get the Holy Grail in the end, so one can imagine the fierce competition.More than one magician died because of the Holy Grail War, and there were many cases where innocent civilians were involved and died. That's why Xiaoman's father didn't like the Holy Grail War.

The Holy Grail that grants any wish?Xiaoman recalled what he knew about the Holy Grail War.

One of the most impressive events related to me was the fire in Fuyuki City ten years ago.

It was a big fire with a lot of momentum.Everything in the fire's path was burned, no one was spared, and grass was overgrown. Psykers in Fuyuki City cast spells one after another, but they failed to stop the continuation of the fire.At that time, the whole family of Xiaoman went out and did a "sacrifice" for three days and three nights.That is also the scene of the greatest sorrow of the soul that Xiao Man has experienced so far.Every time I think about it, Xiaoman's head is full of sweat.

The fire was eventually officially defined as a "natural fire" and ended.

"But the Holy Grail War takes about 60 years, isn't it? This time it's only been ten years..." Xiaoman felt that the timing was a bit wrong.

"The last Holy Grail War did not seem to go smoothly. The fire was an accident. The Holy Grail only used up a little magic power, and now it is full again. It is an accident, but only some of their magicians know the truth." .” Xiaoman’s mother-in-law explained the reason.

"Is that so..."

Regardless of whether the Holy Grail really has such a heaven-defying ability, just to win the Holy Grail requires a life-and-death battle, which makes Xiaoman feel that the Holy Grail is somewhat problematic.And if there was an accident in the Holy Grail War like ten years ago, the damage caused by the huge magic power would be immeasurable.

If you have to sacrifice other people's lives in exchange for the realization of your wish, Xiaoman would rather work harder to realize your wish by yourself.

But the heroic spirits in history and mythology, I still really want to see their heroic appearance... The participants in the Holy Grail War and so on are magicians and heroic spirits. As an onmyoji, there should be nothing wrong with me who has no magic power, right?Xiaoman touched his nose.

"I'm full. I'm going to go out later, so mom won't have to wait for me for lunch." Xiaoman clasped his hands together.

"Be careful outside." Mrs. Akiyama still doesn't restrain her daughter from going out to play.

"So, I'm going out..."

Choosing to go out today was because Sayogi and Shinto Hikari made an appointment to play Go together, and Sayogi called himself again.As for Xiaoman, there are some things he wants to ask Zuo Wei.

"...So you shouldn't be here, but you should use 'wrench'." Sayogi pointed to Shinto Hikari.

It seems that after letting Zuowei play Go with his own body for a few days, Shinto Hikari himself became interested in Go and began to study seriously. Zuowei was his instructor.

"This is also very good. In the future, even if you are at home, someone can play chess with Zuo Wei." Xiao Man watched from the side.

"But Xiaoguang's level is not enough." Zuo Wei waved his small fan.

"Everyone has to grow up slowly. It will be a great sense of accomplishment to be able to train an excellent chess player in the future." Xiaoman turned his head.

"But my thoughts are like this..." At that table, Shindo Hikari was still discussing the chess game with Sayogi.

"As for Zuo Wei, he is from the same era as Mr. An Pei Qingming, have you met him?" Taking advantage of Zuo Wei's free time, Xiao Man wanted to hear the story of the most famous person in their Onmyoji clan.

"Ampere Qingming? As for Mr. Qingming, I have been lucky enough to meet him several times in the palace. He is a handsome man." Although it has been a long time ago, that person's peerless beauty is still in Zuo Wei's mind.

"Beautiful boy..." In Xiao Man's eyes, Zuo Wei himself was "amazing".

"Yes, yes, I heard that at that time, many women liked Mr. Qingming very much. The Yinyang Liao controlled by Mr. Qingming was also very influential in politics." Zuo Wei also admired Mr. Qingming very much.

"Then what about catching ghosts?" Xiao Man asked.

"That Lord Qingming is naturally the most powerful. I have seen his twelve generals, and each one is very strong. Compared with him, his children are not as good, but they are also outstanding figures." Zuo Wei recalled...

I chatted with Zuo Wei about Ampere Seimei for a long time.The demeanor of the most famous onmyoji is indeed very attractive.Such a big man, even I have to fall in love with him.In comparison, myself...is still far behind.

When will she be half as good as Master Ampere Seimei?

"In my opinion, Xiaoman and Xiaoguang are both children who are still growing up. As long as you work hard, one day you will be able to become the person you dream of." Seeing Xiaoman's careful thinking, Zuo Wei encouraged .

"I will work hard!" Xiaoman clenched his fists.

"Come again, I don't believe I can't beat you!" Xiaoguang over there was not willing to fail and asked for another fight.

Come on, that's for sure...

The author has something to say: I received a negative review last night, and the content of the review was "The writing is not sophisticated, it's a small white article"

It's okay to say that the writing style is not sophisticated, after all, it is indeed the case, but Xiaobaiwen...

Well, as long as everyone enjoys watching it, Xiaobaiwen is fine -3-

And because of the extension of this matter, I was a little unhappy, and decided to just focus on code words and ignore other things from now on, and strive to be a diligent update party.

And, after writing this article, I really shouldn’t write the same words again.
