Chapter 206

【On the other Reverse Reverse Reverse Reverse Side, in the forest on the east Reverse Reverse Reverse Reverse Side of the Sun Tower.】

【Inorai: "What should we do? You heard El-Melloi II's tone, right? The matter is basically half-exposed. At this rate, who knows how tomorrow will develop."】

【"What's the use of knowing who the culprit is?"】

【A voice sounded from a dark corner.】

【"Neither you nor I are competing for the sake of chasing the culprit. In this place, any correct deduction is just a card available for factional struggle."】

【"Cards might have their own moods, too."】

【Inorai suppressed her laughter and said: "Then, should we call that person?"】

【"We should. The cooperation with you is also settled."】

【The person speaking walked out slowly, touched his buzz cut, and said: "After all, that person is my client."】

【This person is exactly the dark-skinned Mick.】

【A moment later, inside a hotel suite in the suburbs of Windermere Station.】

【"Then, there's no problem, Lord Barthomeloi."】

【A brown-skinned young man spoke lazily, with the temperament of a nouveau riche; his phone was held by a maid with revealing clothing.】

【Everyone recognizes this person; he is exactly one of the participants of the Fifth Holy Grail War, Atrum Galliasta.】

【"Yes, that's right. Do not interfere with this intervention at all."】

【Atrum hung up the phone and quietly clenched his fists.】

【"Then, let's go harvest the fruit. After all, winning requires means. Let Izelma regret not agreeing to the negotiations."】

Kayneth: "Atrum, I didn't expect this guy to come and stick his foot in, too."

Darnic: "That spy Mick turns out to be his man."

Waver: "He knew the future me in the video before; it must be this time."

Rin Tohsaka: "This guy looks like he has a grudge against Izelma."

Tokiomi Tohsaka: "Waver might be able to unite with him to deal with Izelma together."

Waver: "It's not that easy. This guy looks like the type who is unruly. Besides, why would he unite with the future me?"

Tokiomi Tohsaka: "That's also true."

【Focus back to Waver and his group.】

【The sky gradually darkened. Waver looked at the constantly changing shadows of the Twin Towers and kept analyzing in his notebook.】

【"No, the sun and moon really can't be aligned... Does it really have nothing to do with that secret treasure?"】

【Reines: "Hey, hey, Onii-chan, are you still obsessing over that point? At this rate, will you make it in time for the deadline set by Byron?"】

【Waver: "Hm, I'm also thinking about this while waiting."】

【Reines: "Waiting?"】

【"Hm..."】

【Waver said vaguely.】

【Just at this moment, Reines suddenly discovered that a shadow not far away was a bit strange.】

【"..."】

【Waver silently picked up the cigar by his mouth and chanted a spell to release flames.】

【"So hot!!!"】

【The shadow let out a cry, and a blond, blue-eyed boy jumped up directly; it was Flat.】

【"Oops, I was discovered."】

【Flat patted out the fire on his butt like a clown, without the slightest embarrassment of being caught.】

【Waver: "What are you here for, Flat!"】

【Flat: "I'm here, Professor! In Japanese, it's 'Yoroshiku'. Japanese greetings are so Buddhist-styled; they are truly profound and deep."】

【"Flat."】

【At this moment, another boy ran over from the road direction, looking furious.】

【Needless to say, it was naturally Svin.】

【Svin: "I clearly told you to come over first and tell him I'd be late!"】

【Flat: "Wow, doggy!"】

【"I told you not to call me a dog!"】

【Svin also greeted him without any embarrassment: "Ah, Professor, sorry to keep you waiting!"】

【"You guys..."】

【Waver covered his face with one hand and let out the deepest sigh since arriving here.】

Illya: "Haha, these two clowns are here again."

Darnic: "Lord El-Melloi II, it seems your students really trust you."

Rin Tohsaka: "Yeah, completely different from Lord Kayneth."

Kayneth: "..."

Waver: "I actually wish they would behave themselves. After all, if something happens, I can't Matsuwanko Matsuwanko Take responsibility for it."

【Reines: "Onii-chan, didn't you say that ordering students around is forbidden?"】

【"This is the result of them acting autonomously."】

【Waver said with a headache: "I told you guys to just send the investigation results."】

【Flat: "But Professor, little Reines is in trouble, right? How could I ignore such an interesting thing!"】

【Reines: "..."】

【Kill him. After this matter is over, I'll kill him.】

【Svin: "I have to monitor Flat."】

【Waver: "Alright, what about the results of the investigation I entrusted to you?"】

【"Here."】

【Svin immediately handed over a piece of paper.】

【"... see."】

【Waver nodded after reading the content on the paper.】

Rin Tohsaka: "What's written on it? I can't see."

Caules: "Damn it, if I could see it, maybe I could know something."

Tokiomi Tohsaka: "The usual tactic of this video—keeping parts of the clues in suspense. I'm already used to it."

【Reines: "What's wrong? Is this a secret plan to turn the tables?"】

【"Yes, although various fragments are still missing, I have no choice but to act hastily."】

【Waver said seriously: "Alright, let's prepare for the sortie first!"】

【Subsequently, Waver confirmed the sequence of events with Reines once more.】

【Beside them, those two, Flat and Svin, were actually arguing again.】

【The content of this argument was whether Waver counts as a detective and whether he knows the Ba-Ryu technique.】

【Flat: "Sherlock Holmes is a kind of romance, and Jack the Ripper is too. Although it's scary and I feel sorry for the victims, he is a superstar who embellished London's history!"】

【Svin: "Don't compare the Professor with a murderer. Besides, whether it's Holmes or Napoleon, anyone who only has a little achievement in literature and history cannot be compared to the Professor!"】

Reika Rikudou: "Oh my, Jack, it seems you have quite a few fans, too."

Jack: "I don't need fans or anything; as long as I have Mommy, that's enough."

Reika Rikudou: "Mm-hmm, good daughter."

Atalanta: "..."

【"You guys, be quiet."】

【Waver, who was continuing his analysis, interrupted them and said: "Someone is coming."】

【"Any discoveries?"】

【A voice that was pleasant to hear just by listening sounded.】

【The visitor was actually the Silver Princess.】

【Not far behind her, the maid Regina naturally followed.】

【Silver Princess: "Nice to meet you, Lord El-Melloi II. I have heard rumors about you."】

【Waver: "I don't think I have any positive rumors."】

【Silver Princess: "Regarding the deaths of my sisters Tiadra and Karina, what do you know?"】

【"I offer my heartfelt condolences to the two who have passed away."】

【Waver said seriously: "However, I believe that precisely because of this, it is necessary to find the real culprit."】

【Silver Princess: "You believe your foster sister is not the culprit?"】

【Waver: "Yes."】

【Silver Princess: "... ou have a good brother."】

【Reines: "Yes, I certainly think so."】

【"Is this your sister's personal belonging?"】

【Waver took the amulet out of his pocket and showed it to Regina.】

【Regina: "... hank you. This is indeed my sister's thing."】

【Waver: "The pattern is very Celtic-styled."】

【Regina: "Yes, when we were born, Grandma..."】

【Just at this moment, a chill suddenly enveloped everyone; it was the reaction of the barrier being activated.】

【Reines asked: "Lord Silver Princess, is this the Izelma barrier?"】

【"Excuse me."】

【The Silver Princess hurriedly bowed and turned to leave.】

Rin Tohsaka: "Interrupted at a critical moment again."

Illya: "Keeping people in suspense is so annoying."

Kayneth: "The barrier is activated; this is someone launching an attack."

Darnic: "I'm afraid it's that Atrum Galliasta."
