Chapter 130

(Caules)

[Soon, El-Melloi II returns to his office after class, constantly complaining.]

["I am an acting Lord, without the corresponding strength. Rather than worrying about those power struggles, I would rather do more research myself."]

["Those monsters, those magi who have forgotten even the essence of inquiry, deserve to be cursed to hell."]

[The little girl named Gray listens quietly to the Reverse Reverse Reverse Reverse Side.]

[Her address for El-Melloi II is different from other students; it is Master.]

[This also means that she is El-Melloi II's personal disciple.]

[At the same time, her appearance is fully revealed.]

[It is actually the face of my King.]

Artoria: "This, this is!"

Lancelot: "She looks exactly like the King. Standing together, it would probably be hard to tell them apart."

Tokiomi Tohsaka: "Is this a coincidence?"

Shishigou Kairi: "Maybe she is a descendant of King Arthur."

Mordred: "What nonsense! My Father King only has me as a child!"

"Could it be!"

Looking at the white-haired Gray, my King immediately thinks of that woman.

However, that shouldn't be, after all, that woman died long ago.

Dǎníkè: "But it seems Mr. El-Melloi II also has deep resentment towards the Clock Tower."

Kayneth: "Hmph, stop sowing discord here."

[After complaining, El-Melloi II prepares to go out with Gray to handle business, but at the corner, he bumps directly into Flat and Svin who are moving things, and the crystals in the box scatter all over the floor.]

["I've been set up. The curse has backfired."]

[It should have been just a normal small mistake that anyone would consider bad luck, but El-Melloi II notices something wrong and touches his head, speechless.]

["Although it was just an unintentional curse, those narrow-minded monsters still took advantage of the situation."]

Dǎníkè: "Heh, this is the Clock Tower. It doesn't even allow the most basic freedom of speech."

Iskandar: "It is indeed a bit excessive. Even complaining gets you cursed."

Rin Tohsaka: "Suddenly I don't want to go to the Clock Tower to study anymore."

Waver: "..."

So those Lords are really that narrow-minded.

Kayneth: "..."

That bunch of people, have they all become so narrow-minded in the future?

["Damn it, the clothes I haven't worn many times are ruined like this."]

[El-Melloi II complains while looking at his dirty clothes.]

[Gray says obediently: "I will help you brush it clean later."]

["Then I'll leave it to you."]

[El-Melloi II gets up and is about to leave, but steps on a crystal on the ground, stumbles and falls to the ground in pain, landing on the crystals, howling in pain.]

[Flat: "Are you okay, sacred and inviolable magus professor!"]

[El-Melloi II: "I'm fine. Don't call me by that boring title."]

[Flat: "This is an honorific."]

[El-Melloi II: "Even worse."]

[Svin: "It would make you happier if I called you the 'fourth place in the Clock Tower fantasy object poll voted by girls'."]

[Flat: "It's precisely because you have no malice that it's annoying."]

[Waver, supported by Gray, stumbles away along the path he came.]

[Clearly, the subsequent itinerary is cancelled.]

Sola-Ui: "The Clock Tower fantasy object poll voted by girls? Is there such an activity?"

Rin Tohsaka: "Clearly, it was started in the future."

Illya: "Is this uncle in the video so popular with girls?"

Iskandar: "Kid, it seems the future you is very charming."

Waver: "There's nothing to be happy about with this kind of thing."

Iskandar: "Why? Don't you like the feeling of being surrounded by girls?"

Illya: "Could it be that you don't like women!"

Irisviel: "Illya!"

Waver: "My sexual orientation is very normal!!!"

[After returning to the office, El-Melloi II sits back on the sofa, and Gray goes to get him medicine.]

["Ah, among so many Lords in the Clock Tower, he is the only one who would fall because of a curse."]

[At this moment, a voice sounds from nowhere.]

["Add!"]

[Gray immediately lifts her robe, revealing a strange magic cube inside a birdcage.]

[The one who spoke just now was actually this thing.]

Kayneth: "That is, a mystic code!"

Dǎníkè: "A talking mystic code, it seems it even has self-awareness. This is interesting."

Artoria: "This thing..."

For some reason, she always feels that she is very familiar with this small cube.

Mordred: "A disgusting feeling."

Mordred has the same feeling, but she has extreme disgust for it.

["Stop talking."]

[Seeing Add still being sharp-tongued, Gray directly shakes the birdcage, shaking the other party unconscious.]

[Subsequently, El-Melloi II's shoes are snatched away by a stray black cat, and El-Melloi II falls again while chasing the cat.]

[Afterwards, he feels helpless for dirtying the first pair of shoes he bought with his Clock Tower salary.]

[The thoughtful Gray will help him wipe them clean.]

[And El-Melloi II actually seriously wants to prepare a magecraft to retaliate against the cat.]

[The next day, because El-Melloi II stayed up late and slept in, he was directly pulled up by Gray, who served him by helping him wash his face.]

[Then El-Melloi II was dragged to class by Gray with a tired body, but on the way, he saw it was raining and immediately found an opportunity to announce the suspension of class.]

Iskandar: "Hahaha, kid, your teaching is really interesting!"

Kayneth: "...It's really disgraceful to be made like this by a small curse."

Waver: "..."

It's too shameful. What the hell is the first pair of shoes bought with Clock Tower salary? Am I that poor?

Uh, it seems it really is. The future me owes a large debt to the El-Melloi family.

Feng Xi: "Waver, you don't feel like you've taken in a disciple, but rather found a nanny."

Rin Tohsaka: "Finding a nanny who looks exactly like King Arthur, you really know how to play."

Gilgamesh: "You mongrel, your luck is not bad."

Feng Xi: "It's very enviable, right?"

Mordred: "This guy named Waver, how dare you humiliate my Father King like this!"

Artoria: "Quiet, Sir Mordred, don't listen to their nonsense."

[Just as the two hadn't walked far, El-Melloi II suddenly discovered that the black cat he said he would retaliate against yesterday had been seriously injured by a car.]

[So El-Melloi II took the black cat back and kept it in the office to watch over it.]

[After Reines learned of this news, she laughed at him for not being like a magus at all.]

[It's a pity that the cat didn't make it in the end, and El-Melloi II prepared to bury it in the garden outside.]

[At the same time, El-Melloi II's body was also a bit wrong, walking unsteadily.]

[He didn't pay attention, just thinking he hadn't rested well.]

["If I were an excellent magus, this level of injury could probably be cured immediately. I always miss opportunities, and I don't have the necessary strength."]

[Looking at the kitten's grave, El-Melloi II immediately remembered the scene where the Great Emperor lost to Gilgamesh.]

Iskandar: "You kid, no matter how old you are, you are still so kind, but this is also your merit."

Kayneth: "To make yourself like this for a cat, it's indeed not like a magus."

Emiya Kiritsugu: "...Something is wrong."

Irisviel: "What's wrong, Kiritsugu?"

Emiya Kiritsugu: "...I can't say for now, I just feel his state is a bit wrong."

Dǎníkè: "Those weapons all over the sky, could they all be Noble Phantasms!"

Gilgamesh: "Hmph, have you seen this King's strength?"

Emiya Emiya Shirou Kotomine: "Gilgamesh... could it be the Gilgamesh known as the King of Heroes?"

Gilgamesh: "Ha, you mongrel has some knowledge."

[Facing the lost El-Melloi II, Gray steps forward to comfort him.]

[El-Melloi II: "Gray, don't let me see that face of yours."]

[Gray puts on her hood and slowly retreats, but a look of relief appears on her face.]

["Sorry, but I am happy that you hate this face of mine."]

[El-Melloi II: "Is that so..."]

["Meow!"]

[Just at this moment, Gray suddenly hears a cat's meow.]

[El-Melloi II thinks Gray heard wrong, but Gray says there is no mistake.]

["Reflection!"]

[Finally, El-Melloi II also realizes something is wrong.]

[His reflection has actually turned into a cat.]

[Video paused.]

[Question: What is going on with the cat's meow that Gray heard and the cat's reflection?]

[Start answering!]

Feng Xi: "It's a curse, El-Melloi II was cursed by someone."

[Feng Xi answered part of it correctly, rewarded 1 Saint Quartz.]

Waver: "This guy's reaction is still so fast."

Kayneth: "Hmph, is it to state the specific effect of the curse?"

Kayneth: "It is a vicious curse that connects the life of a pet to its owner through magecraft. Once something happens to the pet, the owner will feel the same pain."

Kayneth: "Waver, this idiot, thought it was retaliation for complaining behind his back, but actually, the person who cast the curse is someone else, and they want his life."

[Kayneth answered correctly, rewarded 5 Saint Quartz.]
