Chapter 839: The Evil Sorceress Medea's Happiness Plan!
Chapter 839: The Evil Sorceress Medea's Happiness Plan!
Upon learning that Medea could summon a dragon, a mythical beast, in the modern world using the Golden Fleece (to deceive others), Aratram's expression was filled with excitement.
As a magician from the God Era, Medea also improved Aratram's magic and provided him with guidance, which greatly enhanced his abilities. This made Aratram even more enthusiastic and gradually began to trust Medea.
Aratram knew that the Caster Class skills 'Barricade Construction' and 'Item Enhancement' consumed a significant amount of mana. Therefore, he suggested capturing more children and using their vitality to convert it into mana crystals.
In truth, Aratram's method of converting mana crystals was rather crude, and Medea considered it pure garbage in terms of efficiency. It was even inferior to her own abilities.
However, remembering that Yecheng had initially summoned her by accident in an amusement park while pursuing a serial killer, Medea decided not to interfere with Aratram's plan.
As long as this scumbag killed enough people, Yecheng, if still in the city, would undoubtedly notice him and come looking. Thus, they would have another chance to meet.
This wasn't to say that Medea didn't want to get rid of the scumbag in front of her and search for Yecheng herself. The main issue was that the Caster Class lacked the 'Independent Action' ability.
Without a Master's mana supply, she would soon be sent back.
Having been summoned by the Holy Grail again, Medea's desires and obsessions were far stronger than before. She wouldn't give up this Holy Grail War so easily!
According to the rules, it was rare for a Heroic Spirit to be summoned twice in the Holy Grail War. The fact that Medea was summoned again in this Holy Grail War, a decade later, could only be attributed to fate!
Medea had initially thought that she might have to wait for several decades, or even hundreds of years, for another chance. She never expected the opportunity to come so quickly.
When a Heroic Spirit is summoned again, their memories of the previous Holy Grail War should be sealed.
In other words, even if Medea were summoned again in the Fifth Holy Grail War, her memories of the Fourth War would be sealed by the Holy Grail.
In simpler terms, she might forget about Yecheng and everything that happened between them.
However, as the strongest magician of the God Era and an expert in exploiting the Holy Grail system's loopholes, Medea had anticipated this situation. She had backed up her memories beforehand.
The moment she materialized in the present world, the spell she had set up was triggered, and her memories flooded back like a tidal wave.
Medea had expected that her second summoning as a Heroic Spirit might take centuries, given the numerous renowned Heroic Spirits and the low probability of consecutive summonings.
And by then, Yecheng, being human, might no longer be alive...
But Medea had already made up her mind about this possibility. Once summoned by the Holy Grail and granted victory, she would use her wish to incarnate in this world.
Then, she would eliminate her Master, steal their wish, and bring Yecheng back to her side.
If she couldn't use her Master's wish, Medea, now incarnated in this world, would participate in the next Holy Grail War until she achieved victory and fulfilled her desire!
Sixty years was nothing to a sorceress who had reached the pinnacle of magic. Medea was confident that she could achieve immortality if she so desired.
However, Medea's plans changed once again after her summoning. When the Holy Grail granted her modern knowledge, she was astonished to discover that only a mere decade had passed since the previous Holy Grail War.
If only a decade had passed, there was a high chance that Yecheng was still in this city.
Ten years might be enough time for a human to transform a handsome young man into a brooding uncle, but what did that matter... No, it was even better!
Medea preferred the charm of an uncle over a sunny young man.
Thinking about Yecheng ten years later, possibly even more captivating, Medea couldn't help but feel a surge of emotion. She began to reminisce about the times when Yecheng helped her replenish her mana.
Beside her, Athram witnessed Medea's flushed face and tightly clenched legs, and his expression immediately turned confident.
Indeed, even the so-called Heroic Spirits couldn't resist his deadly charm.
"Since not all Heroic Spirits of other Classes have been summoned yet, the Holy Grail War hasn't officially begun.
The Magic Workshop only has a limited number of Mana Crystals. Caster, if you're lacking in mana, do you need me to help you replenish it?"
Looking at Medea's exquisite face and her alluring figure, even under the black robe, Athram spoke with a righteous and stern expression.
It was undeniable that Medea, despite her infamous reputation as a wicked sorceress, was flawless in both figure and looks.
Athram hailed from a parvenu family of top-notch magicians, and his youth and good looks had granted him many romantic conquests.
He had seduced female magicians from lesser families and even female instructors from the Clock Tower, but this was his first encounter with a female Heroic Spirit.
"There's no need. My mana is still abundant, and you should also desire victory in this Holy Grail War.
If that's the case, it's better for you to act quickly. After all, if we can construct the Magic Campsite before the Holy Grail War officially begins, our chances of success will be even higher."
Although Athram had aspirations to become a "Heroic Spirit Knight," he had to admit that Medea was right.
Caster's combat abilities were never her forte, and now that she had been summoned ahead of others, it was crucial to utilize the advantages of her Class skills promptly.
In the end, Athram chose to suppress his evil thoughts, prioritizing his family's honor and the all-powerful wish-granting machine over his personal desires. He turned and left to search for suitable prey.
After all, each Holy Grail War lasted at least a month, and Medea was his Servant.
There was plenty of time ahead, and the opportunity to become a "Heroic Spirit Knight" was abundant. There was no need to rush; it was more important to focus on the task at hand.
However, what Athram didn't know was that as he licked his lips and turned to leave, a certain sorceress's gaze upon his back was filled with chilling intent, as if she were looking at a corpse!
"I had intended to let you live a few more days, but since you're so eager to die, I'll grant your wish.
It seems that modern magicians are quite scarce. I wonder if that little devil, Sakura, is still alive after ten years. If she is, finding her as a backup Master might be a good choice."
