Chapter 753
【Magdaniel: "So, what is the significance of this matter, in your opinion?"】
【"Of course, it is because this will affect the outcome of the vote."】
【Kayano Rishiri said without fear: "Furthermore, this Grand Rank Resolution is precisely the place where we can collect all testimonies other than those of Heartless himself."】
Rin Tohsaka: "That woman is truly bold."
Kayneth: "Hmph, this is the Department of Law and Politics, an existence that is both annoying and terrifying."
Kayneth: "Even if Kayano Rishiri is just an ordinary staff member, as long as she doesn't go too far, even the Lords find it difficult to move against her."
Rin Tohsaka: "So the authority of the Department of Law and Politics is that great."
Feng Xi: "After all, the Department of Law and Politics is effectively the police department of the Mage's Association."
Rin Tohsaka: "Ah, it's much clearer now that you put it that way."
【Rufleus: "... You mentioned testimony?"】
【Kayano Rishiri: "Lord Rufleus, are you familiar with the name Makiri Zolgen?"】
【Rufleus: "... That is the name of the mage who loved to dream."】
【Kayano Rishiri: "The Zhong Ta should still have his thesis regarding boundary record belts."】
【Rufleus: "You... coming to find us earlier... was it not just to relay a message for Barthomeloi... but also to dig up this thesis?"】
【Kayano Rishiri: "Heartless summoned a boundary record belt called Faker. The issue is, by what method was he able to collect this technique and information? Makiri Zolgen's thesis is one of the strong possibilities."】
【Magdaniel: "I see. I have also heard a bit of news regarding the Noble Phantasm attack on Sla. Successfully summoning a boundary record belt with enough precision to use a Noble Phantasm in its complete state, rather than just a small connection like the Department of Spiritual Evocation, is a rare example even in the history of the Zhong Ta. Now, please, Mr. Rufleus, do share your thoughts."】
Waver: "I never thought the ancestor of the Matou family would have some fame in the Zhong Ta."
Kayneth: "After all, he was the only mage to study boundary record belts. In fact, I only wanted to participate in the Fourth Holy Grail War after reading the articles he left behind."
Waver: "Teacher, you read his articles back then?"
Kayneth: "Yes."
Waver: "With this, the situation for Luvia in the video is likely not good."
Kayneth: "..."
【Rufleus: "Speaking of old theses, there is one in the secret archives... summoning the Seven Heroic Spirits... the winner obtains the Holy Grail... regarding such fairy-tale-like theses... I do not know how that fellow Heartless... however, the previous Lord El-Melloi might have been moved by such fairy tales..."】
【The old fox, without mentioning the actual existence of the Noble Phantasm and the boundary record belt, limiting the topic to the thesis part is indeed the best way to handle it.】
【Furthermore, this one sentence shifts the suspicion from himself onto El-Melloi.】
【This can already be considered a straightforward indication that the leaker of the information might be the previous Lord El-Melloi, Kayneth.】
【This old man is truly a guy who stops at nothing!】
【("──Brother-in-law Kayneth read that thesis?")】
【("──Hey, Brother?")】
【("──Sorry, we are in the middle of a battle!")】
【Hearing the reply from the Second, Luvia's expression turned ugly.】
【The situation has been disrupted to this extent; it seems one must be prepared to play their trump card.】
Shishigou Kairi: "This old man, selling out his own disciple just like that, really fits his previous style of speaking."
Sola: "..."
Kayneth: "Sigh..."
Although he was mentally prepared, seeing it with his own eyes still felt very unpleasant.
