Chapter 171

Familiar is just a euphemism; to put it bluntly, it's a walking corpse.

Feng Xi: "This is called 'bring your head to see me'."

Illya: "Sigh, is this idiom used like this?"

Regarding Heartless's operation, Feng Xi was also clicking his tongue.

Using a human head as a prop, did he learn this technique from Kratos?

[Subsequently, the Second took out the Yab-Yum Buddha pendant.]

["If visual recognition is the oldest magecraft in human history, then Mystic Eyes also have countless coping strategies."]

[The Second swung the pendant and muttered: "For example, using a lewd amulet to block the line of sight."]

["The stronger the other party's vision, the easier it is to be bounced back."]

["The only person who could do this and have a motive is..."]

[Just at this moment, Hishiri Kayano suddenly made a move, but her target was not the Second.]

[I saw Theresa's head suddenly open its eyes, the Mystic Eyes released purple magic power, turning into shackles to bind 'Caules' who was holding her.]

["Wait a minute, Teacher, what does this mean?"]

['Caules' was confused, Hishiri Kayano had already made a move to Matsuwanko Matsuwanko Take the head back.]

[The Second said lightly: "You are the real killer who manipulated Calab to kill Theresa."]

Gordes: "Good guy, this is a trap."

Conqueror: "Haha, always being calculated by the other party, now finally turned the tables on them."

Kayneth: "Hmph, this kid is still smart, knowing to cooperate with the Law Department."

Fiore: "Caules, seeing yourself being caught, how do you feel now?"

Caules: "Sister, that's not me at all."

['Caules': "What a joke, Teacher, you have no evidence."]

[Second: "So I'm waiting for evidence."]

[Just at this moment, the door opened.]

["I'm really exhausted, if Svin hadn't found me, I really don't know what would have happened."]

[Two people walked in from outside, it was the real Caules and Reines.]

[The two of them used Aoko's magecraft to fly over.]

[And to send them over, Shishigou, Luvia, Svin, and Flat, who were responsible for casting the spell, were exhausted.]

[Aoko's magecraft, as long as the destination is set in advance, can make people arrive at the destination like being pulled by a rubber band, at a speed exceeding Mach.]

[Of course, the flight process is not very pleasant.]

Kayneth: "Aoko, you actually have contact with that woman in the future."

Waver: "Teacher, it's useless for you to tell me this."

Rin Tohsaka: "Is there such a teleportation magecraft? It just looks like the process experience is not very good."

[Seeing the real person appear, 'Caules' no longer disguised.]

["Where was I exposed? I think I disguised myself very well."]

["You only had one mistake, and that was treating me."]

[The Second said directly: "Caules cannot use such perfect treatment technology."]

[Caules: "..."]

['Caules': "So that's it, because it would be troublesome if you died, so I was a bit too forceful."]

[Gray: "So it was swapped before getting on the train?"]

["No, it was even earlier."]

['Caules' said proudly: "My investigation of him was perfect, there was no sense of incongruity, right?"]

["The source of the information was given by her, right?"]

[The Second looked directly at Yvette.]

[Yvette: "Um, because he promised that the Mystic Eyes he auctioned could be given to me for research..."]

Illya: "Good guy, it turns out there was an inside man."

Irisviel: "I thought she was controlled, I didn't expect..."

Emiya Kiritsugu: "This is profit."

Darnic: "See it? This is the Jewel Jewel Mage of the Clock Tower. Even if it's a student, as long as there is profit, any classmate friendship can be thrown aside immediately."

Kayneth: "Hmph, don't talk about yourself as a good person, we are all half a catty to eight taels."

Kirei Kotomine (Emiya Emiya Shirou): "It's really sad."

[Second: "After figuring everything out, I secretly found Miss Hishiri and asked her to act in this play with me."]

['Caules': "So that's it, was everything before just to buy time for this moment?"]

[Second: "Now you can tell us, who on earth are you?"]

['Caules': "Oh, shouldn't you have guessed it?"]

["Yeah."]

[The Second said in a deep voice: "Nice to meet you, former head of the Modern Magecraft Department, Heartless."]

['Caules' immediately turned into a tall, thin man with long red hair.]

Kayneth: "Heartless, it really is him."

Rin Tohsaka: "It's this guy, he doesn't look vicious at all."

Tokiomi Tohsaka: "Villains won't write their identity on their faces."

"Heartless..."

Darnic thought for a while and confirmed that he had never heard this name when he was at the Clock Tower.

It seems that because of the deviation in world development, this Jewel Jewel Mage named Heartless was not born in their world.

[Second: "The only one who can easily open the vault of the Modern Magecraft Department and has the ability to fund Yvette is you."]

[Heartless: "That's right, I've also always wanted to meet you formally."]

[Second: "Your purpose is not just this one, right?"]

[Heartless: "Oh."]

[Second: "Your transformation technique is very similar to the spell of 'Gordoa Davenant'. One of his sponsors happens to have invested in the Marbury Workshop."]

[Gordoa was the killer in a case he had handled before, who was good at transformation techniques.]

["You want to use the power of the ley lines to achieve a certain purpose."]

["You are like an examiner taking care of a poor student, constantly leaving traces to guide me."]

[Heartless: "So that's it, then what else? The motive for the crime (whydunit)."]

["This case is just an afterimage, your purpose was actually achieved long ago."]

[The Second said seriously: "You are for the Holy Grail War."]

[Heartless smiled without saying a word, with no expression of shock.]

["You, who were originally missing, investigated the Holy Grail together with 'Lord Marisbury', and you discovered a method at that time."]

["If the two are placed on a ley line, distortion will inevitably occur. Just like that, another Holy Grail was born."]

[Reines: "So that's it, is this the so-called subspecies Holy Grail?"]

[Second: "Just this doesn't count as a Holy Grail, it needs further processing."]

["The condition is to connect this ley line to the one under Fuyuki City in Japan."]

["Of course, to forge the Greater Grail, you also need the most important thing, which is the person who once served as a Master, that is, me."]

["These are the stage props you need. From the moment the Servant was successfully summoned, your crime was already completed."]

Kayneth: "So this guy actually forged a Holy Grail."

Kayneth: "Genius, this guy Heartless is an absolute genius."

Darnic: "This kind of method is something we old-school mages have never thought of."

Emiya Kiritsugu: "Summoning a Servant outside the Holy Grail War through the means of forging a Holy Grail."

Tokiomi Tohsaka: "How long has this guy been studying the Holy Grail? He actually achieved such results."

Rin Tohsaka: "I know now what it means to be compared to others and be angered to death."

All the mages in the group were shocked by Heartless's talent.
