Chapter 1199 Dreams and the Holy Grail 10
Paimon: Now that you mention it, I think I vaguely remember it!
Traveler: Yes, I did say that…
Other people's fans—"My idol is like this and that," anyway, they're all good fans.
The change to gold dust was followed by a barrage of harsh criticism of their idol—"bad movie."
Fujimaru Ritsuka: What exactly do you like about him?!
Alluvial gold: a marketing tactic.
Dr. Truth: ...Oh, well, you certainly praised his marketing skills quite a bit.
Gallagher: Even Greedy himself didn't believe it when he heard it.
Toppa: But judging from what Sandalwood said, this person's marketing skills are indeed impressive. Hmm, I'll take a look when I get back.
Are you guys trying to drive Greta crazy?
Mikhail: No, at most he'll be resentful. After all, while it's not his most desired talent, technical skills and marketing... are indeed his strengths.
Also...
After learning that Sand Gold admitted it was a marketing tactic, Greedy was somewhat resentful, while Robin acknowledged him as a respectable director based on his dedication to filmmaking.
But she believes that what Greta did is absolutely unforgivable.
When Greta heard her words, he thought of the watchmaker who had said the same thing, but he admitted that he simply lacked the talent to create true art—it seems that once a person dies, they become indifferent to everything.
Upon seeing this, Sand Gold inquired about Old Emperor's plan. After all, if he really wanted to fulfill his wish, he could simply hire a few Masters and predetermine the outcome like in a variety show, instead of staging a Holy Grail War that would never actually happen.
Greedy told them that old Audi had given him a backup plan: when he lost, he should honestly admit defeat to them and sincerely invite them to the Grand Theatre, where old Audi and the Holy Grail would be waiting, and from him they would get the answers to all their questions.
He also offered some extra services out of consideration for Sandstone's fandom. In his opinion, Aude's reason for approaching them was simple—the ratings would be higher.
Gold dust, robins… all these things, from different perspectives, acknowledged Grady.
Admin Q: You've overlooked someone, there's also Rick.
Indeed, Reck's choice to let Greedy possess him was naturally an indication of his approval of Greedy in some way.
Doctor: Director Reich probably wanted to see Greta's life story, to see her past.
Rick: A person who remembers, what he wants is naturally obvious.
indeed
Mikhail: I hope he has truly come to terms with it.
If Greedy had truly come to terms with things, would he have needed to pull this stunt?
That's because he came to terms with it after all that happened...
All I know is that the next boss is about to appear.
Mikhail: Sigh, the next boss will definitely be Odi... Oh, wait, there's Asna, I don't know the situation... Could she be going to be a boss too?
Gallagher: Sigh, I didn't expect them to make such a fuss after 'we' left.
Tiernan: It's certainly lively...
The group discussed whether Greedy's words were credible, and Sand Gold felt that, looking at Pinocchio, there was no place more suitable for the show to end than the Grand Theatre.
At this point, Sandgold couldn't help but ask Potio why he was looking at him strangely.
Portio was still surprised that Sandstone was a fan of Greedy, while Archer thought that his Master's taste had always been consistent inside and out.
Seeing that Sand Gold, Portio, and Archer were going off-topic again, Saber steered the conversation back to the final battle at the theater, and the group decided to go together. The robin also prepared to go and retrieve Miss Note.
Doctor: The Grand Theater is indeed... um... Speaking of which, didn't Qiong and the others also farm gold dust in the cinema before going to the Grand Theater to fight the final boss, Sunday?
Placer gold: ^_^
Sunday: Hmm…
Qiong: Got it. This is Pinocchio's process. First, go to the movie theater to fight a boss, then go to the grand theater to fight another boss—maybe even two bosses like Brother Zhou Tian.
Sunday: It's Sunday...
Qiong: Okay~ Little Bird Brother~
Sunday: Whatever, whatever.
Robin: Poof!
'Thick eyebrows and big eyes'
Potio expressed disbelief.
These three are laughing.
If Qiong joins in the fun, then Robin and Artoria can just watch speechlessly as they complain about how these grown men are all so abstract.
Qiong is inherently abstract, mainly because he doesn't usually speak, but when he does, it's always something big ( ).
The only two decent people ( )
No, no, no, after seeing Miss Robin's split... um...
Miss Robin is still quite normal after the combination (definitely).
Regarding the defense of Gold Sands, without even needing to test it with Portio and Archer, everyone who's been through the battle with Dr. Truth and Hanabi already knows it has incredibly high defense...
Miss Robin is still worried about Miss Note.
Unfortunately, the robin will likely be disappointed.
Speaking of which, didn't they forget one person—like Scott, who was secretly preparing to run away?
Sand Gold looked at Potio and asked him if he knew which department Scott worked for.
Sand Gold revealed a smile more malevolent than any evil spirit, silently uttering the name of the department, while Potio let out a hearty laugh, cracking his knuckles as he grinned menacingly toward Scott.
Qiong heard a howl that only appeared in animation, with ups and downs and full of emotion. Qiong knew that it would be quite a long time before Scott could get out of bed.
But trust in the medical technology of the cosmic age—no Scott suffered irreversible damage in the Holy Grail War, especially not in a dream.
To be honest, I almost forgot Scott was there.
Scott Wei
Qiong: Sigh, I've heard frogs croaking so many times along the way, it's so boring.
March 7: That’s right!
Mischievous gold dust, hahaha
After all, it involves the market development department, and given Scott's blunders this time, it's not surprising that they got ripped off in return, haha.
Doctor: Indeed, given Potio's strength and his relationship with the company, not killing him outright was already showing mercy.
*A hearty laugh*
He's quite cheerful, so cheerful it's almost frightening.
Administrator Q: During this live stream, none of Scott's injuries were irreversible.
Sand Gold: →_→ By the way, this really is a Scott special, right?
Pepper Hill: Got it. Hure was only doing this because of Scott, the lone wolf.
This is the true power of a lone wolf!
Fujimaru Ritsuka: As expected of a lone wolf o( ̄▽ ̄)d
Qiong: Indeed~ This is impressive.
This is the kind of thing that looks funny in videos, but in real life you'd want to beat up.
After relaxing, everyone set off together for the Grand Theatre.
Inside the Grand Theater, Lancer approached Old Otto. As a Servant with 'some knowledge' of magic, he sensed the unusual nature of this Holy Grail War. It was clearly just a farce, yet it had such an ingenious setup.
Power is flowing continuously here, but there is no such thing as 'magic' or 'magician' in this world.
This puzzled Lancer, so he went to the old man, Ottoman, and the answer he gave was that the Holy Grail had told him everything he needed to know.
Old Emperor was slightly surprised by Lancer's keen observation, and then tried to divert his attention by mentioning his Master's safety. However, Lancer wasn't buying it. After all, even if his Master was in danger, it was better to deal with the mastermind here and there before he could get back, thus ensuring his Master's escape.
Red A Shirou; Someone has directly stormed the boss's lair!
Cú Chulainn: As expected of me, I didn't have to go through all the twists and turns like you did; I found your target directly.
Sand Gold: Hmm, you can beat Old Emperor, right? Speaking of which, who is his Servant?
Cu Chulainn: He hasn't appeared yet—probably either Berserker or Rider.
Sora: So, we're about to fight the big boss, where's the train conductor's Servant?
March 7: Uh...didn't we discuss before that Pam can't leave the train? I guess the Servants will stay on the train the whole time?
Qiong: Scratching head. I mean, shouldn't we at least give some visual proof that Pam really summoned it?
Doctor: Good question... Hmm... Maybe it's foreshadowing something?
Mikhail: I guess Ortega summoned a Berserker, and Pam summoned a Rider~
Tiernan: Since locomotives were considered 'cavalry' before, would trains be considered Rider-class artifacts?
Lazarina: So either of us could be a possibility?
Misha: Could Rider be the Hamster Ball Knight?
Mikhail: That's possible too~
Who knew that the person who understood magic best in the entire arena was Lancer, not Caster?
Cú Chulainn: Good question
Scáthach: A henchman of the hound family... Hmm... They're all canines, so how can they not count?
Cuchulainn: ...
Fujimaru Ritsuka: Ready to blow someone's head off at the slightest provocation; as expected of a Servant summoned based on affinity.
Doctor: The more I understand a group of masters and followers, the more I realize the authority of affinity summoning.
Lancer gave old Ortega a piece of advice: 'The Holy Grail never grants wishes; it only leaves behind the souls buried by desire.'
Old Emperor had no intention of pinning his hopes on the Holy Grail; he actually wanted to create an entertainment program that was a more worthwhile investment than the wish-granting machine.
Lancer suddenly understood and remarked that this kind of entertainment program was quite compatible with the Holy Grail, which explained why it could start this Holy Grail War.
He kept thinking, in this mysteriously decaying world, on such barren land, even if you hold the Holy Grail, what can you do besides pour wine into it? If something could replace magic and infuse the Holy Grail with the heat to create miracles... then that would be a different story.
The Holy Grail War, which was supposed to remain 'mysterious and hidden,' has been transformed into a public entertainment program. On this planet immersed in dreams, people believe in the existence of Holy Grail miracles because they know about the Holy Grail rituals and have witnessed the summoning of Heroic Spirits.
Thus, their every wish became fuel, providing an opportunity to coat the Holy Grail with a layer of falsehood, while the farce orchestrated by old Aurelius trampled upon their desires.
Thinking, I'm starting to not understand it anymore.
Simply put, it's about willpower, faith, and things like that.
Doctor: Yes, sometimes the 'mystery' is like this; belief is a miraculous power.
There's also the ability to become more effective the more people believe in it; this is also the case with prophecies in some worlds, because many people believe the prophecies will come true, thus driving the prophecies forward.
Red Archer Emiya: So why isn't Cu Chulainn a Caster this time?
Cú Chulainn: Why can't I be a Lancer-class Lancer!
Artoria: You didn't just rush in and start a fight, then discuss things while you fought. That's not like you.
Cú Chulainn: I'm not stupid, being new here. I need to figure out the enemy's hand before I can really fight them.
After listening to Lancer's words, Old Emperor was slightly surprised by his knowledge, but the arrival of these otherworldly Servants was necessary. The Holy Grail needed more efficient fuel, which was these otherworldly Servants.
With a single sentence from Old Otto, Miss Note, or rather Asna, appeared in the theater. Lancer was immediately caught off guard, and the curtain fell sharply, obscuring everything on the stage.
