Tohsaka Rin: "Personality? What does that mean?"
Tohsaka Tokiomi: "It means that each of Hassan of the Hundred Faces' es is a distinct personality—essentially, parts of their mind split into individual selves."
Waver: "Wow… normally, having two personalities would be extreme, but he's got dozens."

[B: Hassan of the Cursed Arm is one of the 19 Assassins who ied the title Hassan across history. His right arm isn't ordinary; it's a cursed limb, granted by deceiving a demon.]
Kayh: "He actually gained power by trig a demon?"
Waver: "I used to think Hassan was weak, but it turns out he's far from simple."
---
[C: Hassan of the Serenity is one of the 19 Assassins who ied the title Hassan. She's a quiet female assassin skilled in poison. Her skin, body fluids, and even her nails are highly toxic.]
Tohsaka Rin: "Her whole body is poisonous? How does that even work?"
Chihiro: "Trust me, you don't want to know."
Tohsaka Tokiomi: "Rin, there's o learails of something like this."
Tohsaka Rin: "…"
---
[D: Hassan of the Fathomless Rift, another of the 19 Assassins to bear the title. While not as profit in assassination as others, his cealment skills are unmatched. With an EX-level Presence cealment, even his Master 't check his stats.]
Emiya Kiritsugu: "EX-level Presence cealment!"
It was no wonder Kiritsugu was surprised. EX was the highest rank.
Emiya Kiritsugu: "With this level of cealment, he'd be invisible even if he stht in front of me."
Kayh: "Even his own Master 't see his data?"
Tohsaka Tokiomi: "Now this is a top-tier assassin."
---
[E: Hassan of the Hundred Faces possesses multiple personalities—88 in total. Each personality has its own thoughts, making her incredibly knowledgeable. Her es are created by splitting her Noble Phantasm.]
Waver: "Wait! So this is the real form of Hassan of the Hundred Faces?"
Tohsaka Rin: "So, Hassan of the Hundred Faces is a woman?"
So-ui: "I'm shocked. I always thought she was a man."
Artoria: "Same here."
Kayh: "Eighty-eight personalities… how do you mahat?"
Hassan of the Hundred Faces: "It requires bang primary and sedary personalities, though some are… challenging. Even I struggle with certain ones."
Chihiro: "With that many personalities, doesn't it drive you mad?"
Hassan of the Hundred Faces: "Keeping a clear mind helps."
Hassan of the Hundred Faces: "But holy, I'd love to have a peaceful rest… though I know that's wishful thinking."
After all, those personalities were her source of power. If she lost them, she wouldn't be Hassan of the Hundred Faces anymore.

[F: The Old Man of the Mountain, also known as the First Hassan or King Hassahe founder of the Assassin Order and the Grand Assassin. It's said that he appears to decapitate any Hassan who strays from the path. He is the Assassin who kills Assassins.]
Everyone: "!!!"
Although they'd seen images of didates frand titles, this was the first time they entered a genuine Grand Heroic Spirit—a Servant who occupied a fixed "Grand" role withihrone of Heroes.
Hassan of the Hundred Faces: "Yes, that's him."
Waver: "He's actually the Grand Assassin—and a Hassan!"
Tohsaka Rin: "A Grand Assassin… but wielding a greatsword?" (T/N: Lmao)
Chihiro: "What's se about that?Gilgamesh as a Grand Caster didate wielded axes and s."
Kayh: "It's as expected for a Heroic Spirit of his caliber to differ from the norm."
Iskandar: "Just looking at him, you feel the weight of his presehis is a true Heroic Spirit."
Gilgamesh: "Hmph, it's just a Grand title."
Chihiro: "A, not everyone is fated to achieve it."
Gilgamesh: "Are you mog me, mongrel?"
Chihiro: "Not at all. After all, you were the one who said that the King of Heroes and the Wise King of Uruk were distinct."
Chihiro: "So, just because the Wise King is a Grand didate doesn't mean you automatically are, Gilgamesh."
Gilgamesh: "You i…!"
He wao retort, but found himself at a loss. After all, he had indeed made that distin himself.

[The correswers were A and E.]
[gratutions to Chihiro, Hassan of the Hundred Faces, Kotomine Kirei, Zhang Jiao, and Sigurd for each receiving 5 Saint Quartz.]
[All others answered incorrectly and will have 1 Saint Quartz deducted.]
Most partits had at least chosen option E. After all, who would have guessed that the little girl was also a part of Hassan's mind?
Even Tokiomi hadn't anticipated it, having never seen that particur e in a.

[For today's quiz, Kiritsugu Emiya ranks first, followed by Chihiro, Hassan of the Hundred Faces, Kotomine Kirei, Zhang Jiao, and Sigurd. In third pce are Waver, Gilgamesh, Kayh, Artoria, Iskandar, Diarmuid, La, Kariya Matou, Bluebeard, So-ui, Red Hare, the Sed, So-ui, Brynhildr, and the First Emperor. They are awarded one gold, one silver, and one broreasure chest, respectively.]
[Today's Q&A session has ended and will resume tomorrow.]

"Heh, didn't think I'd e in sed today," Chihiro said, examining the silver chest in his hand. "Still, better than nothing."
"Let's see what I've got today."
Zhang Jiao opened his ow first. A card fell into his hands, and upon seeing it, he frowned.
The card depicted a middle-aged man in a leather jacket and sungsses, bearing three scars over his right eye.
Chihirnized him instantly—it was Shishigo Kairi, an infamous neancer.
The magic gift set he received was for neancy, a practice dating back to the a days of magi.
However, Zhang Jiao seemed repulsed by it. Neanvolved maniputing corpses, a practice frowned upon.
Relutly, he kept the card, since he couldn't simply destroy it.
, Sigurd opened his reward, revealing a sword nearly identical to his own Gram, yet somehow distinct.
Chihiro chuckled knowingly. This version of Gram had inated in Gilgamesh's Gate of Babylon, where every treasure was stored but subtly altered from its inal form.
Now, with two Grams, Sigurd could attempt a dual-wielding style.
Eagerly, Chihiro opened his ow.
"Ding! gratutions, you've obtaihe 'Magie: Code Cast'!"
The picture on the card depicted a striking image of Rin Tohsaka in a revealing outfit. Chihiro stifled a ugh, imagining her rea.
Still, the card depicted a Rin from the "Fate/EXTRA" universe, not the Rin of this world. Her backstory, even her appearance, was different—lighter hair, a slightly altered physique.
Code Cast was a uype of magecraft developed by Rin in that alternate universe. It allowed for preset ands, funing almost like a program. O, casting the spell was instantaneous, with no need for verbal intations.
Chihiro activated the card immediately, feeling the new knowledge of Code Cast settle into his mind.
"Not a bad draw today. I'm feeling lucky, so maybe I'll open the rest of my chests ter."

Kotomine Kirei: "Chihiro, where do you want to meet?"
Kotomine's message popped up in the group chat, reminding Chihiro of their earlier arra.
"Oops, almost fot about that," Chihiro muttered, smag his forehead.
This meeting was crucial; it art of his bet with Gilgamesh. Chihiro quickly shared a location in the chat.
It was an old restaurant he'd stumbled upon a while back. The elderly chef was sideriirement, as his son had no i in taking over.
Though the food was average, the kit was well-equipped, which was what Chihiro needed for his pn.
Arriving first, Chihiro rehe kit space for a few hours and asked the owo gather some fresh ingredients.
As the elderly chef departed, Chihiro started preparing. Tonight, he po set Kotomine Kirei down a new path—ohat would irrevocably ge him.
After all, he had a bet to win.
