Book 6: Chapter 6:2: Reincarnators as Extras, Part 2

“Captain, in this seven-on-seven, the red side members are the original cast of the Fourth Holy Grail War. We’ve taken four spots on the black side, but what about the remaining three Master spots?” asked the enchanting woman lying in the blond man’s arms.

“Who knows why it ended up this way? Initially, I planned for the seven Master-Servant pairs to brawl it out. We’d then swoop in for the kill, maybe loot some weapons. Who could have expected it to turn into a seven-on-seven?” The blond man was truly baffled, and just the mention of it gave him a headache.

Kal’tsit: Wait, are you saying you cooked up this 7 vs. 7 war?The source of this content nov(el)bi((n))

Self-Centered Elder Sister Shiki: Yeah, any problem? That mission was only issued with my approval.

God Sai: That’s a big problem.

Efreet: As a world consciousness, is it okay for you to disrupt the world’s trajectory like this?

Self-Centered Elder Sister Shiki: Relax, even without me, the plot would be a total mess. With reincarnators around, do you still expect things to follow the storyline? That’s why I straight up staged a 7 vs. 7 war. Without it, merely dropping some items into the Holy Grail wouldn’t be enough for the reincarnators to purify it. That’s why I came up with this 7 vs. 7 war.

Iron Fist Teacher: Speaking of which, why didn’t you, as the world consciousness, block these reincarnators, preventing them from entering the world?

Self-Centered Elder Sister Shiki: Like I said, I’ve delegated the world’s authority to the world automatic mechanisms. I’m not meddling for now. Our Type-Moon universe is unique; there are simply too many parallel worlds to manage, okay? Also, arranging for the reincarnators to enter took a lot of effort from the Host God Space.

Self-Centered Elder Sister Shiki: I suppose those reincarnators must have used some strange items.

Self-Centered Elder Sister Shiki: Plus, let me tell you, the reason I let those reincarnators cross over to that Fourth Holy Grail War world, and not any other Holy Grail world, is mainly because there’s a re:lifer in that world.

He Who Knows Fate: Re:lifer? Is the re:lifer Tohsaka Rin?

Self-Centered Elder Sister Shiki: Right, how did you know? Did you use the Absolute Precognition?

“Teacher, I detected a mana reaction near Mount Enzou. It appears someone has summoned a Servant; the reaction was strong. Should I send Hassan to investigate?” Inside the Tohsaka residence, Kotomine Kirei respectfully asked Tohsaka Tokiomi, who was holding a wine glass.

[TL Note: Kotomine Kirei is the son of Kotomine Risei, the priest mentioned in B05C046.2. Tohsaka Tokiomi is the father of Tohsaka Rin and is the head of the Tohsaka family in the 1990s. Here is more information about these two: /wiki/Kirei_Kotomine and /wiki/Tokiomi_Tohsaka. There are many Hassans in the Type-Moon worlds. Some of them are actually the same person but have distinct personalities. As a result, that particular Hassan can manifest as different entities at the same time. On top of that, Hassan-i-Sabbah is also a pseudonym used by the leaders of a Persian assassin order; they lose their true names after gaining this title. There were nineteen Hassans in total. Here is more information about the Hassan that appears in the Fourth Holy Grail War: /wiki/Hassan_of_the_Hundred_Faces. Here is more information about the Hassan-i-Sabbah title: /wiki/Hassan-i-Sabbah.]

“Send a clone of Hassan to investigate but be very cautious. The mana fluctuation was enormous. If it was a Servant summoning, it must be an incredible one. However, we can’t be sure if the summoner will remain there after a successful summoning. Be prepared to gain nothing.”

“Yes, Teacher. Anything else I should do?”

“No, Kirei. I trust your abilities.”

“What about the change in the rules of the Holy Grail War? Do you have any thoughts on it, Teacher?”

“All we can say is that fate plays tricks. An otherwise normal Holy Grail War, with seven pairs of Masters and Servants fighting to the death, has turned into 14 pairs racing for the Holy Grail in teams. It seems this Holy Grail War may be bigger than ever. As the administrator of Fuyuki City’s ley lines, I must be thoroughly prepared,” Tohsaka Tokiomi sighed, rose from his seat, and stood by the window with his wineglass, looking out at the scenery.

“But I’m still confident of victory. After all, my Servant is that king.... Speaking of which, Kirei, where has King Gilgamesh gone?”

“Master, it seems that king is wandering the streets.”

“...”

Meanwhile, back at the Fuyuki City Hyatt Hotel but in a different area from the group of reincarnators, Kayneth and his fiancée grandly booked the top several floors of the hotel, setting up a trap-filled stronghold.

[TL Note: Kayneth is a Magus and one of the original participants in the Fourth Holy Grail War. Here’s more information about Kayneth: /wiki/Kayneth_El-Melloi_Archibald.]

“Lancer, go investigate that massive mana fluctuation earlier. Make sure to conceal yourself and don’t act rashly,” Kayneth said to the unoccupied room.
