Quadruple split

After the final curtain opened, a huge screen suddenly dropped from the sky and appeared in the center of the stage, while Xiao Ming and other main actors exited from both sides of the stage in sequence.

"Ahem, hello everyone, I am Mr. V, the chief planner of this party."

A listless male voice sounded in the venue, and after a brief pause, he ignored the commotion of the audience and continued on his own: "For some subtle reasons, tonight's finale program "On the Last Love" The finale will be distributed to everyone in the form of special coupons, please forgive me~"

Mo Tan, who was sitting in front of the computer screen waiting for the final act, was stunned.

The father of the Ji sisters, who was recording, was also confused, and then whispered in an extremely broken tone: "Hey, hey, hey! Is there any mistake? Why does that guy appear here! This It’s completely illogical, okay, I’m not dreaming right now, my wife, pinch me and scream!!”

His voice stopped abruptly.

The man who called himself Mr. V continued after a strange pause: "In short, this is the situation, this is the thing, but in order to compensate for everyone's loss of not being able to see the ending at the first time, I specially Well, I have specially arranged a special program to present to you, I hope you like it."

Amidst the noise mixed with abuse, the large screen covering the entire stage slowly lit up, with a line of large characters written on it -

【Fate/Split·Prologue:】

After five seconds, the screen lights up.

At night, a small seaside town was brightly lit.

Lines of subtitles appeared quietly, then turned into particles and disappeared with the wind.

[Time: December 31, 2549]

[Location: Innocence Mirror World (internal beta version V0.9.8) Fuyuki City]

[Event: The First Battle for the Holy Grail]

[Time ratio: 1:7]

[Worldview: False Copy]

[Supplement: All participants sign up voluntarily and are familiar with all the contents of this final test (including temporary world view copying and temporary memory shielding)]

【.】

The subtitles faded and the camera panned down, appearing in a warehouse that looked like it had not been used for a long time.

A petite girl wearing a large T-shirt sat cross-legged on the ground. While typing a lot of characters on the small portable terminal in front of her, she chewed the cherry-flavored lollipop in her mouth. His eyes were full of amusement.

"Hehe, hehehehe~~"

"Easy, easy! I didn't expect you to catch me so easily!"

"Hehe, he will definitely praise me when he comes back! He will definitely praise me with all his heart!"

"One, two, three, four! Very good, now you can move on to the next step, haha, it's so exciting, hahahaha!!"

"Then, the first step is to build a defensive position~"

The girl stretched her body lazily, then slowly stood up, took out a computer accessory from under her wide T-shirt and threw it out: "Wheel of Inhibition, Guardian of Libra, respond My command expresses the rejection of evil!"

The next second, I saw that the ordinary memory stick swelled up in the storm, and in an instant it turned into a cross more than two meters high, as if surrounded by stars, and crashed into the air!

Buzz buzz buzz——

In an instant, countless extremely small cross shadows appeared in every corner of the warehouse like stars, and disappeared after a hazy brilliance flashed together, as if they had never appeared.

A trace of bright red blood left the corner of the girl's mouth and dripped onto the dirty floor.

"Tsk, tsk, although the technical content is extremely low, it is not limited in terms of consumption."

The girl raised her hand to wipe the blood from the corner of her mouth, sat back in front of the computer, lazily tilted the virtual keyboard in front of her, and cursed.

Then her little face was pressed hard against the terminal screen by a hand that suddenly appeared above her head!

"If you act too unladylike, I will be very troubled, dear Master~"

A gentle and elegant male voice sounded leisurely, respectful and submissive, but the hand pressing the back of the girl's head became harder and harder.

"It hurts, it hurts, it hurts!!"

The girl was not released until her little face, which was pressed tightly against the screen, was about to be completely deformed. Then, the moment she gained freedom, she suddenly turned around and pounced on the tall, twenty-year-old man in front of her. A man of many years old, with evil eyes, wearing a butler's uniform. Although his appearance could not be called very handsome, but his temperament was extremely high, he cheered in surprise: "You are back! A~ssa ~ssin!”

The man known as Assassin smiled and spun around in a circle while holding the girl, who was not even taller than his chest. Then he skillfully pulled out a white handkerchief from his pocket and gently wiped the girl's handkerchief because of slamming the terminal. The little face with a lot of nosebleeds was looking at the screen: "Well, I'm back. Are you good?"

"I'm so good!"

The girl nodded vigorously with a smile, then pouted and complained: "Assassin, don't always treat people like children! I am a college student! An active college student!"

Assassin smiled playfully, his eyes slowly moved down from the girl's cheek, and after a few seconds, he sighed silently, turned his head away with a look that he couldn't bear to look at, and said sadly: "Obviously, I can't even understand the most basic skills of college students. Even if the conditions are not met, Master, how dare you say so."

"What are the basic conditions for college students?"

The girl was slightly stunned and said in astonishment: "What is that?"

Assassin turned to look at his master sympathetically, shrugged and said, "Literally, do you understand?"

"I'll bite you!"

"I'll slap you!"

"I'm sorry I was wrong."

It was clear that the Holy Grail War had just started a few days ago, but the girl who had already used two Command Seals sincerely apologized to Assassin, and then abruptly changed the subject: "Speaking of which, Assassin, what was your harvest in the first half of the night?"

The man smiled proudly, then leaned over and saluted the girl in front of him: "I have gained a lot. As the only heroic spirit with both [Aura Masking] and [Single Action] characteristics, it only took me three hours to successfully You have collected living funds and hiding places, and look, this pile is vouchers for all supermarkets in Nancheng District, and this pile is premium membership cards for all Internet cafes in DC area."

The girl's smile gradually solidified.

"Of course, the most important thing is."

Assassin showed a reassuring smile and handed a few thin sheets of printing paper to the girl: "Given that our current financial situation is not optimistic, I have found many part-time jobs that pay very well. Whether Master, you want to go to the maid coffee Whether I work as a waiter in the hall, or I want to spend an afternoon leisurely handing out leaflets, I have prepared relevant channels."

"Hey, if you want me to change my clothes, just say no."

The girl took the flyer dejectedly, sat cross-legged on the ground with it under her buttocks, and complained with a flat mouth: "With the ability of [Aura Masking] and [Single Action], you obviously have many more valuable things to do! "

Assassin raised his eyebrows, glanced at the data terminal in front of the girl, and chuckled: "If the 'more valuable thing' you are talking about means conducting 'investigation' work naively and blindly like you, even I wouldn’t have been that stupid if I didn’t even notice that I had half my foot in the trap.”

"Eh?"

"Let's go, it's no longer safe here."

"but."

"Okay, if you want to stay, that's up to you~"

"Ah! Don't leave me!"

at the same time

The top floor of a five-star hotel in Fuyuki City

"Hey, your reaction is really fast."

The girl with waist-length orange hair and round glasses snorted, extinguished the seventeen data terminals in the surrounding circle, and at the same time dispersed the water-like wave in front of her. Reflecting on the light curtain of an abandoned factory, he narrowed his eyes slightly: "It's obviously only one step away from successfully locking the position and launching long-distance attack magic. Are those two guys looking down on me?"

"I've said before that instead of setting up a 'game' that wastes time, it's better to just rush in and beat them up."

A tall woman wearing a dark purple leather jacket with a mole at the corner of her eye walked out of the shadows and showed a ferocious smile: "Anyway, that Assassin is far less powerful than you, so why not crush him head-on, lovely Miss Caster?" .”

The orange-haired girl known as Caster raised her eyebrows, adjusted her high-collar mage robe slowly, shook her head and said, "You know nothing."

"You deal with trash like Assassin, Berserker or Archer, and I'll kill their Master. What a simple and practical tactic."

The elegant leather-clad woman shrugged, obviously not expecting to be able to convince the eccentric 'magician' lady in front of her.

"Deploy the barrier, and I will turn this place into my home court tonight."

Sure enough, Caster not only ignored the master's suggestion, but even said in a commanding tone: "Make plans before ensuring safety, and don't act impulsively."

"I can cooperate with you."

The leather-clad lady curled her lips, then took out a stack of white sticky notes from her pocket, picked up one and printed a lavender lip print on it, frowned and said, "But my patience has its limits. , if you don’t want me to force you with the Command Seal, just show the results as soon as possible, Caster.”

"Yes Yes Yes."

Caster yawned and waved his hands impatiently: "So hurry up and continue working, silly sister."

"What did you say about me?!"

"Silly sister."

"Can you say that again!!"

"Are you cheap?"

Fuyuki City, a game center

"Ah, hit again."

The young man wearing a knitted hat looked at the three '7's on the slot machine in front of him. He stood up with a bored expression in the shocked eyes of other guests, ignoring the numbers that were constantly being used from the machine like a waterfall. I took the token and walked out of the store without looking back.

"This gentleman!"

A waiter quickly ran over and stopped him, and said with a stiff face: "You won the first prize, we will..."

"Give the tokens to everyone to play with, and I'll pay for it."

The young man patted the waiter's shoulder kindly, then lowered his voice and smiled in the latter's ear: "Don't worry, I didn't use any cheating methods, it's just pure luck~"

After saying that, he kicked open the store door and walked away.

two minutes later

"You shouldn't be so arrogant, Master."

A short creature with a hoe and a face very similar to a dog quietly appeared behind the young man and said dissatisfied: "Our current situation is very dangerous. If someone discovers your whereabouts."

"Ah, you still talk so much nonsense, Lancer."

The young man knocked on the miner's helmet of the mysterious creature with an indifferent expression and said with a smile: "It's okay. I've always been very lucky. No matter how ostentatious I am, I won't be discovered by the enemy."

"Good luck is only temporary, you can't pin everything on luck, Master!"

"Only people who are not lucky enough would say something like this. Who do you think you can make 777 by just pressing a button, or that you can help others work hard for a lifetime by buying a lottery ticket!"

"MMP!"

"ha?"

"It's nothing, as long as you are happy."

"Haha, don't be angry. You played a beautiful girl collection game yesterday, right? Let me draw cards for you."

"Stop joking, now is not the time to do such a thing. Damn it! SXR New Year Limited Edition Little Dragon Girl! Master, you are so awesome!!"

"Yeah, hahahahaha~"

"Yeah, hahahaha!"

Fuyuki City, a basement

A young man in school uniform and glasses sat on the only chair in the room with a complex expression. After a long while, he sighed: "I'm sorry, if I were stronger, I could directly use my magic power to treat you." ”

after a brief silence

"It's me who should apologize, Master."

A bitter voice came from the corner. A man with his upper body covered with bandages was leaning in the shadows. His soft voice was weak and self-reproaching: "Obviously, I should be the weakest heroic spirit in this Holy Grail War. It’s me who’s dragging you down.”

The young man, who was trembling because of fear, shook his head and tried to force out a forced smile: "As the weakest duo in this war, we don't need to use honorifics between each other, right? "

"That's true, Master."

The man in the shadow stood up with difficulty and struggled to put on his tattered cloak. His face under the mask was so pale that it was almost transparent: "I am probably the most useless Berserker in history. Although I can think of I remember my name, but other than that, I don’t remember any deeds, and I don’t even remember what my Noble Phantasm is.”

"Actually, I think we're quite compatible."

The young man laughed in amusement, looking down at the only Command Seal left on the back of his hand. Yes, it was the only one, not the only one left.

"As the worst successor in the worst family of magicians, I am worthy of my reputation."

The screen darkened, and the credits were slowly drawn out.
