Book 6: Chapter 3:1: Magi “Mari”-chan, Part 1
Personal Skills:
Chen Clan Sword Technique: EX (When cultivated to the peak, just one sword strike can destroy the world.) (It contains countless sword techniques and cannot be evaluated using the measure of ordinary sword techniques.)
Dragonslayer: A (Given by Alaya, brought forth from previously.)
Absolute Precognition: A++ (An ability that surpasses mortals. An ability to truly see the future. After two ability strengthenings, it has already reached the point of showing the past or future of any person the user meets, with certain limits, even if the user only sees a photograph of the target.)
Attraction Control: EX (Able to pull down the moon.)
Electromagnetic Control: EX (Can turn into lightning. Powerful enough to reduce a city to rubble with one strike.)
Gravity Control: EX (Starting from 100x gravity, it can directly crush a person into blood foam. It can even create a simulated black hole to swallow a city or continent.)
Spatial Control: EX
Independent Action: EX (No Master can affect the user. The user can exist independently in the world as a Heroic Spirit.)
Cooking: B+ (Already reached the pinnacle of human cooking.)
Firearm Proficiency: B+ (One shot, one kill within 400 kilometers.)
Myriad Techniques: A
Chiliad Sword Conception: D (Incomplete) (Contains supreme sword conceptions from the sword dao of many worlds, a supreme realm of the sword dao.)
Chiliad Sword Formation: D (Incomplete) (A sword formation formed by Will Energy swords containing high-grade sword conceptions. Just the cultivation method of the Will Energy sword is a priceless treasure.)
Noble Phantasm:
Moonfall: EX (A true falling of the moon. Directly using the attraction ability to use the actual moon as a projectile to smash the enemy on the ground to death. Of course, its execution may face obstruction from the Counter Forces, provided they dare to stop the user.)
Simulated Black Hole: EX (Using the gravity ability to create a black hole that can swallow up a continent.)
Demon-Subduing Lightning Dragon Ritual Array: A (Lay a ritual array that can generate 108 lightning dragons, each over 300 meters long and possessing peak conceptual-natured strength. This will form a lightning zone.)
Poké Ball (Jeanne d’Arc Alter): B (Can summon Jeanne d’Arc Alter, who resides in the Poké Ball, to battle.)
Poké Ball (Fafnir): B (Can summon Fafnir, who resides in the Poké Ball, to battle.)
…
Chen Clan Ancestral Necklace: EX (An artifact containing over two thousand years of accumulations of a clan and numerous “small gifts” from a transcender. This artifact represents a tremendous wealth that can entice even multidimensional organizations. However, they would have to consider whether they could withstand the three full-powered attacks the transcender stored within the necklace and the transcender’s subsequent relentless pursuit, should they survive the attacks.)
Ancestor, Save Me!: EX (Regardless of his location, the danger he faces, or the strength of his enemies, when Chen Heng utters these words, it signifies the end of all things. Nothing, not even the world itself, can harm him, provided he can overcome his embarrassment to shout this plea.)
After Chen Heng had perused all the information, he had only one comment: Damn it.
As a Heroic Spirit formed through the Dimension Administrators Association, Chen Heng should not have any Noble Phantasms, but…
Chen Heng currently had two suspects: Gaia and Alaya. Only these two Counter Forces could tamper with a Servant’s status screen. Alaya seemed unlikely, considering her understanding of Chen Heng’s character, someone who bore grudges—urm…lacked magnanimity. If such a situation had occurred, she probably would have modified his status screen before summoning him.
Therefore, it must have been Gaia. First, Gaia had the capability, as the Throne of Heroes was essentially under her control. Modifying a status screen would be a breeze for her.
Second, Gaia had the motivation—Chen Heng had once helped Alaya. Although Gaia could not interfere with Chen Heng overtly, she could still make things unpleasant for him.
Third, Gaia had the time. Only Alaya appeared at that place that was likely the Throne of Heroes, not Gaia. Chen Heng did not believe Gaia had no interest in him.
Taking all this into account, Chen Heng added Gaia to a small notebook containing only three other names: Merlin, Alaya, and Shigure Kira.
The purpose of this notebook? The individuals mentioned here were people whom Chen Heng wanted to reason with and persuade through rational explanations and emotional communication.
It was absolutely not a grudge list. Chen Heng was such a magnanimous person. How could he bear a grudge?
Actually, Chen Heng would not have been so angry if he alone had seen the name of the Noble Phantasm. However, as his Master, his younger sister had also seen it. This truly vexed him.
“Elder Brother, what’s that notebook?” asked Sirin after her laughter finally subsided, as she curiously leaned over to peek at the small red notebook in Chen Heng’s hand.
“Children shouldn’t be so curious,” Chen Heng said, pulling it out of her reach.
“Elder Brother, let me see!”
“No!”
“Chen Heng, quickly! Come here. The summoning ritual is ready. Don’t miss this classic scene.” As Chen Heng and Sirin tussled over the notebook, Doctor Roman, who had been standing next to Yakumo Yukari all along, waved Chen Heng over.
“Coming!” Seeing that the summoning ritual was ready, Chen Heng placed the small notebook in his spatial storage and rushed over to Yakumo Yukari.
Sirin huffed with dissatisfaction when she saw Chen Heng put away his notebook. However, she followed him to Yakumo Yukari, choosing to float rather than walk. Her laziness was extraordinary.
As Chen Heng approached, he took in the summoning ritual Yakumo Yukari had spent about ten minutes preparing.
“A Holy Grail?” Chen Heng’s first glance at the summoning ritual landed on a golden cup nestled at the center of the hexagram magic circle. It reminded him of the Holy Grail in the Fate/Grand Order game that boosted a Servant’s level cap, though he couldn’t be sure.
“Yes, it’s a Holy Grail. I spent a significant amount of points on it. It can provide nearly unlimited mana and is reusable. Once it’s no longer needed, I can sell it back to the store at a 20 percent point loss. The Holy Grail even contains Merlin’s hair, which I purchased from you,” Yakumo Yukari explained after she heard Chen Heng’s question.
Chen Heng failed to recognize anything else in the magic circle, but he could feel strong mana emanations from them. Evidently, these were not ordinary items.
