TM : [207] The Chosen Battlefield of the Holy Grail War
🕑 Added 2023-12-24 06:49:02 +0000 UTCAnd then—
During the peak popularity of JOJO, another manga titled "Hellsing" also began its own rapid serialization.
It progressed at a pace of two chapters per week.
JOJO's Bizarre Adventure also experienced its peak at this time.
Its popularity even surpassed the Fate series for a while!
With a style that resonated with the times, exceptionally high production quality, mesmerizing music, and sound effects, not to mention the unexpectedly unique character of Joseph Joestar in Part 2, it exuded a distinctive charm!
Kazuya was extremely satisfied as well.
With so many people enjoying this anime, he was also delighted. This production was something he liked himself. This JOJO undoubtedly gathered the highest standards of non-black technology of this era.
As for black technology...
This was, after all, the Nasuverse, and even if someone brought out technology more advanced than the 21st century, to be honest... he wasn't surprised!
Although he was preparing for the Holy Grail War, getting ready financially, at the moment, he was more focused on the animation side of things.
The production of JOJO's Bizarre Adventure Part 3.
The production of Hellsing.
The former, since everyone was already accustomed, was maintaining a super-fast pace in production, and if it continued at the previous level, it would produce about three episodes per month, which was much faster than before.
By the end of the year, it would be possible to produce over 30 episodes. By then, preparations for broadcasting could begin, and when all 48 episodes were completed, it should be just in time for the TV broadcast to finish—
Suddenly, while watching the footage, Kazuya's right hand trembled slightly—
"Is it decided? The chosen battlefield for the Holy Grail War." Kazuya paused slightly, sensing the information transmitted by the Command Spell—
The chosen battlefield for the Holy Grail War is—Egypt!
...
"Hurry up on the right—slower, slower! Yes, like that!"
Countless people were transporting something—this was directly transported from the Clock Tower in England.
From Fuyuki in Japan to London in England, and finally to this place in Egypt—
The Greater Grail!
(MENACING)
Egypt, a country where more than ninety percent of the entire land is desert and semi-desert, can be said to be the perfect location for the Holy Grail War!
The Libyan Desert, occupying one-third of the entire country, where most areas are uninhabitable.
It can be said to be the most suitable battlefield.
Even if someone wreaked havoc here, it wouldn't matter!
And—
Land bonus.
This is an important factor in the Holy Grail War.
If a Heroic Spirit summoned from here is the place where they were before death, where their legend is spread, their strength will greatly increase.
A third-rate summon can become a transcendent summon.
Even a third-rate Heroic Spirit can exhibit first-rate abilities—
Moreover!
The Clock Tower—the Heroic Spirit that the person there is preparing to summon, even without the land bonus, can be considered a transcendent existence!
Like this, if someone were to ask who the strongest Heroic Spirit is, no one could give a definitive answer. However, if asked which Heroic Spirits are among the strongest, then he must be one of them!
...
Kairo—
"Is it in your hands now?"
"It's already in my possession, Lady Barthomeloi," the magus said to the girl in front of him. "Please follow me."
Barthomeloi Lorelei slowly followed and then looked at the coffin-like object covered in black cloth, her lips curling slightly. "Open it and take a look—"
"Yes—!"
In the next moment, the two magus next to her lifted the black cloth in one go, revealing the figure inside separated by glass.
It was an ancient relic with a significant magical value, previously stored in the Egyptian Museum, but Barthomeloi managed to acquire it through some means—it was the mummy of the renowned Pharaoh Ramses II!
"If it's this item, it should naturally be able to summon the strongest Heroic Spirit. Coupled with the land bonus and—" Barthomeloi said, glancing at the magus in the room.
There were fifty of them.
All of them were a formidable army of high-level magus—these fifty individuals could rival high-level Dead Apostles or the Burial Agency of the Holy Church, making it the Clock Tower's strongest force.
Calling them a platoon with just fifty people might not be an exaggeration but rather modest.
On their way forward, there were almost no entities that could resist them.
This was also a test for Ramses II, who had yet to appear. After all, as a top-tier Heroic Spirit with the added bonus of the land, if they couldn't surpass him, there would be no need for their existence.
"So, preparations are complete—next, infuse the leyline and quickly initiate the Holy Grail War for me!"
"Yes—"
Barthomeloi walked in front of the mummy and smiled faintly. "If it's really successful... the summoned Heroic Spirit should be such an existence..."
The most top-tier, invincible Heroic Spirit.
Even if it's just her alone, she is enough to conclude the Holy Grail War. If you add the land bonus here, it becomes even more formidable.
She could even foresee that it would be the strongest Heroic Spirit, an existence that no one in the upcoming Holy Grail War could match!
And...
This was also a trial for herself.
If she could command such a Heroic Spirit, she could achieve tremendous growth. Therefore, she personally participated in this Holy Grail War.
Here, she would undoubtedly display something that would astonish the world and evoke admiration with the sentiment of "This is Barthomeloi"!
...
Countless people are preparing for the upcoming Holy Grail War.
The involved groups can be said to be unprecedentedly massive.
The Mage's Association, the Holy Church... and even Dead Apostles, and... Germany!
This country, which shone brightly during World War II, although it ended in defeat, no one could deny their power during that period.
And...
The power they obtained during that period.
In Germany—there is also a magus chosen as a Master, and he... is preparing to summon an existence that has deep connections with the land of Egypt!
