Chapter 676: Chapter 675: Meeting with the World Tree of a Thousand Realms Clan

Fang Zheng did not use the Unsealing Master to Teleport directly to Romania. On the one hand, he did not want to expose too much of his abilities to Danik. After all, through Ratziel, Fang Zheng hadde also learned that Danik was a typical magician who would stop at nothing to reach the Origin. Fang Zheng knew a fair number of such magicians and naturally could not let his guard down.

When fighting alongside such people, it was always better to keep your cards as hidden as possible.

Therefore, Fang Zheng chose to use a modern means of transportation, an airplane, to travel to Romania. Meanwhile, on the plane, he also took the opportunity to explain to Kurumi and Yoshino what the Holy Grail War was actually about.

"There really exists something that can grant any wish... If there were such a thing in my world, I would definitely obtain it at all costs."

Upon hearing Fang Zheng’s explanation, Kurumi couldn’t help expressing her thoughts. In response to Kurumi’s sentiment, Fang Zheng simply shrugged his shoulders. As Kurumi had said, if there were a Holy Grail War in her world, she would certainly participate. Moreover, with Kurumi’s abilities, winning the Holy Grail War would not be difficult. After all, Chronos was an Angel who could manipulate time, and there were few among the Heroic Spirits known to Fang Zheng who had the ability to counter time.

"Everyone would have to kill each other... it sounds so terrifying..."

Yoshino, however, seemed more concerned about a different issue.

"Mr. Fang Zheng, do we also have to kill each other among comrades?"

"There’s no need for that."

In response to Yoshino’s anxious inquiry, Fang Zheng waved his hand. Regarding the question of killing each other, Fang Zheng had already devised a strategy. Although all the Servants were technically enemies, Fang Zheng did not need to personally engage the Servants on his side. Since it was a battle of seven against seven Servants, as long as he could find an opportunity to incite conflict between the two sides, he could easily guide the Servants to fight amongst themselves. Then, Fang Zheng only had to intervene subtly, leading a few of his own Servants to die at the hands of the enemy, after which it would simply be a matter of eliminating the foes.

As for overplaying his hand, Fang Zheng was not worried. Although his system had not fully recovered, he now had Illya and Little Hei under his command, along with Yoshino and Kurumi, whose powers were no less than those of ordinary Heroic Spirits. Not to mention that Fang Zheng’s physical attribute strength had almost fully recovered. Together with the power of the Angel, dealing with Heroic Spirits was no trouble at all.

Plus, considering the two Sword Sprites currently merging with the Spirit Crystal... yes, Fang Zheng’s side could easily take on any other alone.

"Also, Kurumi and Yoshino, you need to be aware, although there are magicians in this world too, they are different from the magicians in your world."

While explaining, Fang Zheng also did not forget to remind Kurumi and Yoshino. In the Elf World, those so-called magicians are merely capable of using the Random Domain as a shield or enhancing their physical attributes to some extent. However, the magicians of the Type Moon World possess real magical power, and some of their magic, although unconventional, could pose a lethal threat to both Kurumi and Yoshino. Therefore, Fang Zheng had to consider this issue too.

"Ah? Is that so?"

"That’s right! Leave the issue with the magicians to me!"

Hearing this, Little Hei, who was sitting behind them, excitedly raised her hand.

"I am also a magician. Let me teach sister Kurumi and sister Yoshino about the common knowledge regarding magicians."

"Oh? Is that so?"

Faced with Little Hei’s response, Fang Zheng was momentarily startled, but upon reflection, it made sense. After all, Illya was indeed a magician in his memory... no, it should be said that Illya being a magician was the norm; her becoming a Magical Girl and Heroic Spirit was bizarre.

While Little Hei explained the common knowledge about the magicians of the Type Moon World to Kurumi and Yoshino, Fang Zheng continued to reflect on an issue he had been thinking about for some time.

That is... whether or not to incorporate the Moon World into his Free World.

In the previous worlds, Fang Zheng had not had this idea, the simple reason being that his system was still far from repair. But this world was different. If things went as Fang Zheng expected, his system would be restored after the Holy Grail War ended, and there would be a good chance of bringing the Moon World into the Free World.

To achieve this, Fang Zheng would need to create a faction in the Moon World, just like he used the Cursed Child to establish the "Heavenly Dao Palace" in the Pitch Black World, and then he must make this faction dominate. It would be difficult if Fang Zheng were alone, but knowing that he was a member of the World Tree of a Thousand Realms in this world roused his thoughts.

The World Tree of a Thousand Realms lacked top-tier power but was numerically strong, and their ideals resonated well with Fang Zheng. Having been exposed to the Type Moon World’s mage nobility through novels, animations, and games during the Fourth and Fifth Wars, such as Kenneth representing that type, Fang Zheng knew their character. If Fang Zheng were a representative of the Clock Tower, he would certainly leave right after the Holy Grail War without a backward glance, and might even take the opportunity to blacken the Clock Tower’s reputation on his way out.

But now, with his status as part of the World Tree of a Thousand Realms... it would be a waste not to use such a favorable position.

Moreover, leading the vast populace to overthrow the decaying nobility, which allowed the previously static class of magicians to start flowing again, also seemed rather thrilling!

Of course, if there was a problem, it wasn’t entirely without. The backer of the Clock Tower and the Second Magician was Mr. Fang Zheng’s biggest obstacle, but relying on the power of the Time Dragon, Mr. Fang Zheng was not very afraid of him. However, if possible, he still hoped to reach an agreement with the Second Magician... after all, from Mr. Fang Zheng’s memory, the relationship between the Five Great Magics and the Mage’s Association was quite ordinary, and... if things went smoothly, he might even be able to seek the help of other magicians.

However, all of this would have to wait until after the Holy Grail War had ended.

Just then, the plane began to descend slowly.

As the Holy Grail War was about to start, to avoid accidents, Romania had completely banned third-rate magicians from entering, fearing that the incompetent magicians might accidentally obtain the Inscription... Yes, Mr. Fang Zheng deeply agreed with this, fearing that a magically talented murderer would obtain the Command Seal and summon a tentacle monster, which could indeed become a big problem.

For this reason, when Mr. Fang Zheng and the others stepped out of the aircraft, they saw at the end of the staircase a luxurious sedan parked there, and beside the car stood a woman with white long hair and bright red eyes, appearing to be about twenty years old.

"May I ask if you are Mr. Fang Zheng?"

Seeing Mr. Fang Zheng, the woman looked towards him and asked in a low voice, and Mr. Fang Zheng nodded, then showed her the Command Seal on his right arm. Seeing the Command Seal, the woman’s initial wariness eased somewhat.

"I am here on behalf of the Yukdonia clan to welcome you and your companions, please come with me."

As she spoke, the woman opened the car door, and Mr. Fang Zheng and his companions got directly into the car. Only Illya gave the white-haired woman a few curious glances before sitting next to Mr. Fang Zheng and whispered to him.

"MASTER, that person looks a lot like our housemaid..."

"Hmm... that’s only natural..."

Hearing Illya’s curious question, Mr. Fang Zheng couldn’t help but smile bitterly. He obviously knew why Illya was confused; during the investigation of the World Tree of a Thousand Realms, Mr. Fang Zheng had learned that they had obtained the technology of the Artificial Human from the Einzbern family and applied it in practice... From this point of view, for Illya to feel curious was quite normal.

After all, they were both Artificial Humans created by Einzbern’s technology.

"Hmm..."

After taking a closer look at the Artificial Human maid, Little Hei let out a meaningful snort but didn’t say anything, just turned her head back and chatted with Yoshino and Kurumi.

The drive from the airport to the castle of the World Tree of a Thousand Realms took about five hours, and by the time Mr. Fang Zheng’s group arrived at the castle of the World Tree, it was already dusk.

"The environment here is quite nice."

Looking at the barren plains and the castle in the distance, Mr. Fang Zheng nodded in satisfaction. Although the location was in a less accessible suburb, it was also seldom frequented, meaning even if the Holy Grail War were conducted here, there was no need to worry about involving ordinary people. There would also be no occurrences like the massive park fire during the Fourth War.

But on further thought, it was clear that the World Tree also had such confidence for this very reason.

The black sedan passed through the gate and entered the heavily guarded inside of the castle, then stopped in front of the castle doors as Mr. Fang Zheng got out of the car and looked up at the castle in front of him.

"Wow, what a beautiful castle."

Seeing the castle, both Illya and Yoshino expressed their surprise and admiration, and at that moment, suddenly, a clear and soft voice spoke up.

"Thank you for your praise, and after such a long journey, it must have been tough on you all."

Hearing this voice, Mr. Fang Zheng turned around towards the source of the voice and saw a young girl in a wheelchair emerging from the main gate, smiling gently at them.

"I am Fiore Forvitch Yukdonia, welcome to the World Tree."
