Chapter 39: Can You Pick Up the Holy Grail While Taking a Walk?

  ---

  Goddess Venus : "Uh…"

  Ishtar realized her image as a proud goddess had pletely fallen apart in the group chat. And it was all Gilgamesh's fault. She vowed to teach him a lesson, just oo vent her frustration.

  ---

  [You have 5 mio answer. Begin answering now.]

  Irisviel: "For this question, I think we're just going to have to guess."

  This really was a question of luck. Si was about luck, they could only rely on their own luck to get the right answer.

  Tohsaka Rin: "No wohe system was kind enough to provide names for the Heroic Spirits in the pictures. Turns out it doesn't matter if we bel them or not."

  Diarmuid: "The answer should be Scathach. After all, she's incredibly powerful."

  Waver: "Well, lud strength don't necessarily go hand-in-hand."

  Chihiro: "Not always true. Gilgamesh has excellent luck."

  Hero King: "Naturally. My luck is A."

  Gilgamesh's stats could vary depending on his Master, but his luck was always rated at A.

  Goddess Venus: "Hmph, what's so great about that? My luck is also A."

  Zhang Jiao: "..."

  The old Taoist, who shared an A-ranked luck, didn't want to get drawn into this versation.

  "So what do you think the answer is?"

  "It's hard to tell, so let's just take a random guess." Chihiro said.

  Chihiro actually khe answer should be C, but wasn't sure how to expin it to Zhang Jiao and the others.

  ---

  [Time's up. The quiz is over.]

  [Now, let's reveal the answer.]

  ---

  "La …"

  [The image showed a cute, pink-haired dragon girl, humming and hopping along. It was Elizabeth Bathory.]

  [Suddenly, she stopped a down to piething up off the ground.]

  [It was a round, golden goblet.]

  [The system helpfully beled it: Holy Grail.]

  "What the heck?! You found the Holy Grail while out for a walk?"

  The entire group was dumbfounded.

  It turns out you just stumble upon the Holy Grail anywhere.

  "Oh, another ohis year?"

  Elizabeth tilted her head, looking puzzled. "Wait, is this the first one I picked up this year?"

  "I 't remember. Never mind. I pie up every year anyway."

  After p for a moment, Elizabeth gave up and tinued hopping along.

  ---

  [The video ends here.]

  ---

  The group chat erupted.

  Finding the Holy Grail while casually walking around was ohing, but pig one up every single year? Where did that leave those who fought life ah battles for it?

  What kind of insane luck was this? Could she be blessed by Fortuna herself?

  ---

  [Ding! Dispying the luck values of the Heroic Spirits featured in this question.]

  Diarmuid: Luck E

  Cu n: Luck E

  Elizabeth: Luck B

  Gareth: Luck D

  Percival: Luck C

  Scathach: Luck D

  [Therefore, the correswer to this question is C.]

  ---

  [gratutions to Chihiro, Hero King, Tohsaka Rin, Tohsaka Sakura, Zhang Jiao, and Goddess Venus for each earning 5 Saint Quartz.]

  [Bluebeard has chosen not to answer.]

  [All other members who answered incorrectly will lose 1 Saint Quartz.]

  [The top performers for today's questions are as follows: Chihiro in first pce, Kayh in sed, and Emiya Kiritsugu in third. They will each be awarded a gold, silver, and broreasure chest, respectively.]

  ---

  With the quiz over, everyone in the group remained in a daze.

  A Heroic Spirit who could just casually pick up the Holy Grail, and her luck was only rated as B?

  Even Gilgamesh, who prided himself on his A-ranked luck, was half-tempted to take a stroll and see if he could pick up a Grail himself. Otherwise, his high luck felt almost… fraudulent.

  Kayh: "I didn't expeeone as formidable as Scathach to only have D-ranked luck."

  Diarmuid: "My lord, this also ily highlights her strength. To achieve so much despite her luck…"

  Kayh: "Of course, I uand that."

  Kayh was in a good mood, finally winning a treasure chest himself. Perhaps he really was skilled, he just hadn't been giving his best effort before.

  ---

  "Is this the treasure chest you mentioned?"

  So-Ui, looking at the silver treasure chest that suddenly materialized, regarded it with a curious gaze.

  "So, why don't you open it?"

  Kayh hahe treasure chest to So-ui without hesitation, his attentiveo her on full dispy.

  So-ui didn't hesitate. She took the chest and ope.

  Ding! gratutions to group member Kayh for obtaining a "Heroic Spirit Summoning Card - Holy Grail Version"!

  Kayh's face brightened when he saw the item he had received.

  This was exactly what he had been hoping for.

  With Chihiro, Emiya Kiritsugu, and Waver all having summoned additional servants and with Ishtar also joining the chat the gap between him and the others was growing more pronounced.

  But now, he finally had the opportunity to summon another Heroic Spirit to aid him.

  However, he no longer had any relics to act as catalysts. This time, he'd have to rely purely on luck.

  "Kayh, what is this?"

  So-ui had been examining the summoning card, but couldn't figure out its purpose, so she turo Kayh for an expnation.

  Kayh expihe card's effects without hesitation.

  " this card really summon an additional Heroic Spirit?"

  So-ui's eyes lit up as she looked at Kayh, her expression filled with excitement.

  Though she didn't say anything directly, her iions were clear.

  "Alright, I'll give the card to you."

  Kayh handed her the card without any reservations. To him, this was a simple decision.

  So-ui was his fiancée, his partner. Naturally, she was on his side.

  Besides, this would give So-ui an added yer of prote.

  In this Holy Grail War, with people like Emiya Kiritsugu who fought without honor or mercy, Kayh didn't want to take any ces with her safety.
