After saying goodbye to Takayama Kiyoko, Lope walked along the mountain road to the downtown area of Fuyoki City.
The system was very praiseworthy in this regard. It would not send him too far away from the scene of the incident, or else it would take a lot of time and energy to get to the scene.
Walking in a foreign country and a foreign city, despite knowing that this place was about to become the battlefield of a cruel war, Rope still tried his best to observe the city as a tourist.
Although 40% of the buildings in the commercial street were still incomplete, the park and mall in front of the station were about to open. The new capital that was about to be built would appear clean and pale, gorgeous but without any personality. The city government was also gradually moving to the new city. Steel bars, glass, and paint were also combined into various modern buildings. The city's functions were gradually being forced to change.
" Japan in the 1980s. What a nice experience…"
The clothes he was wearing were still a little thin, but now that his vitality had increased, it was no longer something worth worrying about.
He wouldn't get sick anyway.
As it was a rest day afternoon, there were many people on the street today. Other than the clothes that did not match the season, Rope was inconspicuous in such a crowd, as if he was invisible in the crowd. Thanks to the cold atmosphere in Japan, they would not waste their time on a stranger's strangeness.
"Let's get a map first."
Rope looked around and happened to find a slightly dilapidated bookstore at the corner of the street. In Japan in the 1980s, such bookstores would usually sell maps.
"Please give me a map of Dongmu City, the most detailed one.”
Rope took out a note and handed it to the salesperson behind the counter. It was more convenient to let the salesperson handle it than to find it himself.
I have to say, the system really helped me a lot. It would be terrible if I didn't understand Japanese. Rope thought gratefully.
"Thank you for your patronage."
As the shop assistant smiled, Rope walked out of the bookstore with the map. He opened it and looked at it. It was indeed very detailed, which was exactly what he needed.
" Next is the place to stay..." Rope looked around casually.
This was considered a relatively remote place in Fuyunmu, but it also had its advantages. At least, Rope was sure that the money he got from Chongshan Qingzi was enough for his monthly expenses if he was frugal.
"Let's do it here."
Rope chose a furnace that looked very suspicious. From time to time, some young men and women would walk into it arm in arm.
Was this the prototype of the Love Hotel? With this thought in mind, Rope walked in.
This hotel only had a decent lobby and front desk. At most, it was a cheap hotel that was equivalent to a business hotel. From travelers with families to men and women who had one-night stands, the guests here could be said to be of all kinds.
"A single room with a shower.”Rope said to the front desk.
"Alright, how long do you plan to stay?”
"One month."
"A monthly package? Okay, please sign here and fill in your resident card.”The waiter smiled and handed over a list.
“???”
Oh no, he had forgotten about this.
Rope looked at the white paper in front of him with a toothache, but now that things had come to this, he could only brace himself.
"Miss, I'm a tourist from Shenshan Town. Unfortunately, I lost my resident card when I got off the car. I'm still in the process of reapplying for it urgently, so I'm just looking for a place to stay.”Rope said with a perfect smile.
"You're really unfortunate, but don't worry, we're just asking a routine question. Just fill in your name here.”
The receptionist was not stupid. It was impossible to lose a resident certificate. She had seen many such things. The guys who came out to have an affair did not want their true information to be found out by their wives, so they tried their best to cover it up.
As long as the money was in place, it would be fine.
"Thank you."
Rope heaved a sigh of relief, filled in his name, and went upstairs with the key and map.
Stepping on the stone steps, Rope soon arrived at the residence on the third floor. When he noticed the old brownish-yellow wooden door, he suddenly felt a sense of reality.
He was really in this game of life and death.
Half a year ago, when he was at his most desperate, he met the self-proclaimed 'Supreme God Substitute System.' Not only did it repair his paralyzed body from the car accident, but it also gave him the courage to live on and became his only and best friend.
'Are you sure you want to be friends with me? You might even die in my hands in the future.'
'Wouldn't it be the best ending for a meaningless person like me to die after witnessing the mystery?'
" Hmph, the ignorant are fearless. You should just hug your fantasy tightly. This was the only thing that could keep you from peeing in your pants when fear descended.'
"It's been half a year." Rope was trying to figure out the copper doorknob, but his eyes were not focused on it.
"This is my first mission. If I still fail even with the greatest help from the system, it will prove that my life is just so-so…However!”
"For the sake of my only friend, I definitely won't let it down.”Rope's eyes became sharp as he suddenly twisted the door handle.
Crack.
After closing the door, Lope did not choose to waste any time. Instead, he laid the map on the bed and took out the pen and notebook he got from Chongshan Qingzi.
" According to the system's information, I'm currently ten days before the Heroic Spirit Summoning. However, this is only limited to the Summoning Days of Archer, Saber, Rider, and Berserker. The remaining Summoning Days of Lancer, Caster, and Assassin are not given in the works, so it's still unknown.”
Rope wrote down the words 'ten days' in his notebook, and next to it, he noted that the time of the remaining three heroic spirits was unknown.
" To participate in the Holy Grail War, one must have a Servant. It would be foolish to rely solely on my 'Substitute' ability. Fortunately, the system said that it would be in charge of summoning, so there's no need to worry about mana. The only thing left is the choice of the Heroic Spirit…"
Rope turned a page and wrote down the true names of the seven heroic spirits on a blank piece of paper.
"Altolia, Gilgamesh, Iskandar, Dilumudo, Hassan, Lancelot, Gil. de Lei…"
After writing, Rope bit the tip of the pen and began to erase them one by one. "King Arthur's summoning location and holy relics are in the Ainsberm Castle in the country of Dé. Gilgamesh's summoning target was the largest local tyrant, Enzaka, and he could not afford to offend him. Lancelot felt the same way. Hasan's summoned target, Yan Feng Qili, should not be provoked, so these three were eliminated.”
" So, the rest are Rider, Caster, and Lancer…"
After writing down the name, Rope carefully searched through all the things related to " Fatezero " in his mind and connected them together.
" Theoretically speaking, I have an overwhelming advantage over Wilbur and Ryunosuke with the 'Mad Hell'. Furthermore, be it Rider's King's Army Force or Caster's secret technique, they would definitely be of great help to me in obtaining the Holy Grail, but…"
Closing his eyes and pondering for a long time, Rope crossed out the two names on the paper.
"…Their personalities are too incompatible."
It was similar to the heroic spirit's personality, and its importance was even above the heroic spirit's own combat strength.
"So, the last one left is really you?”Rope put down his pen, stood up, and looked down at the last name on the notebook.
"The representative of foolish loyalty, Lancer Dilumudo. Audi. And Kensi. Elmalloy. Aqipolud."
