Chapter 391 - Chapter 390: On the Possibility of Commercializing the Holy Grail War

Looking at the contents of the commission, Waver raised an eyebrow. His face showed an expression that said, "Although I don't quite understand why there's such a commission, I am still greatly shocked."

How to put it? The things mentioned in this commission were sim... simply too bold.

Waver had been through a lot over the years, even life-and-death crises. But, how to put it, this matter wasn't life-threatening, but it was indeed unimaginably bold. So much so that Waver rubbed his eyes, took out his glasses from the side, and after putting them on, read it all over again carefully.

After confirming it again and again, Waver took off his glasses and sighed. "What a bold idea. Why make such a choice? Most importantly, is this new supervisor planning to commercialize this Holy Grail War? No... it's hard to say, maybe future Holy Grail Wars could also adopt this method...

As long as it runs reliably this time, and the Holy Grail actually grants wishes, that will be enough to attract others to participate. Whether it's for their own wishes, for their own fame, or to pursue the Root, or to pursue the Third Magic...

And it only happens once every 60 years, so there's enough anticipation. How terrifying."

The contract clearly stated the intention to live-stream this Holy Grail War to the world of magi, and also to promote it. After all, this Holy Grail War is related to the Third Magic. However, those who give up participating will also be given safe harbor by the entire Holy Church. Anyone who attacks someone who has already forfeited their right to participate will be making an enemy of the entire Church.

In this way, half of the initiative in the Holy Grail War could be considered to be in the hands of the Church. In a way, the Church has also established a close relationship with the Third Magic. It is precisely because of this that the Church would agree to this seemingly absurd proposal.

However, just as Waver had thought before, if the entire Holy Grail War were to be commercialized, it might really be profitable. But if the Holy Grail War really became very famous, then in the future, in order to compete for the right to participate, more and more people would fight outside of the war itself.

"In the end, who is the supervisor sent by the Church this time? How could they propose such a bold idea?"

Reines opened her phone, looked at the information she had saved, and answered Waver's question. "It seems to be the granddaughter of the previous supervisor. I think her name is Caren."

Huh?!

Wasn't the previous Holy Grail supervisor that old man, Kotomine Risei? That old man's granddaughter... in other words, the daughter of that perverted priest?!!

Thinking of that perverted priest's final appearance in the last Holy Grail War, he suddenly felt that to be able to come up with such a strange way of making money... should one say, "as expected of that priest's daughter"?

Reines continued to search for her intel. "This young lady named Caren, after looking through the records of previous Holy Grail Wars, as well as the repair costs spent on the aftermath, immediately thought of this method. After all, the funds the Church gives to each region are limited. Even for the location of a Holy Grail War, it wouldn't be much higher.

Therefore, how to reasonably handle the aftermath is the key among keys. And unfortunately, this new Holy Grail War supervisor doesn't seem to be very good at these things. So, in order to better handle the aftermath, she could only choose to make money. Perhaps even she didn't expect that her mere proposal would be directly approved."

And the facts were indeed so. In the church in Fuyuki City, the white-haired girl looked at the reply from the Church's management on her mobile phone. She was especially stunned by the two words [Approved]. She had originally just been hoping to get a little more funding from headquarters for the aftermath. She had not expected that the Church headquarters would actually approve her proposal.

No matter how many times she looked at the reply on her phone, she still found it a bit hard to believe. At the same time, in order not to let the people from the Mage's Association feel that they were taking too much of an advantage, she had entrusted the matter of the live broadcast to the people of the Clock Tower. This could prevent her from being targeted, and also ensure that her plan would not be actively sabotaged.

She looked at the suggestion she had submitted in her proposal, that she would take a portion of the live broadcast commission, which had also been approved. The girl's lips curled into a slight smile. She had to earn all the money for the next 60 years at once!

I've also lived a hard life for a while, so being a little more realistic shouldn't be a problem, probably.

"But this is a Holy Grail War, after all. Although you're just going to help with the live broadcast, it's best to have someone to protect you. If you really want to take this job, it's best to bring Gray along."

Reines propped up her chin with her hand and made a very useful suggestion. Waver nodded. Indeed, if he was going to take this job, it was better to have an extra bodyguard. After all, that was the Holy Grail War; anything could happen. Even those like them, who were standing from a third-person perspective, could be attacked.

Of course, besides the lack of money, there was another reason he was taking this job, and that was to see with his own eyes who had taken a part of that King's cloak. After all, if there were no accidents, the Heroic Spirit summoned from that part of the cloak would definitely be related to the King! During the Holy Grail War, he might not be able to make a move. But after the war was over, he would definitely give the culprit a pair of silver handcuffs!

In the name of the great detective, Waver!

In Great Britain, the tourist spot of King Arthur's grave welcomed a special guest. A black veil covered her face, and her light-golden hair was draped behind her. Although there were other tourists coming and going, these ordinary tourists seemed as if they could not see this lady at all.

"Artoria, after so many long years, have you let go of your wish? Across 1500 years, I finally have a chance to see you again..."

Recalling the Lion King she had once seen, and then recalling everything she had experienced in this long time, the various influences on her personality and thoughts from back then had finally been stabilized by her. In fact, several hundred years ago, she had even given a certain village a mission in the name of the "Black Mother." If things went smoothly this time, that village could also be freed from its long mission.

On the back of this lady's hand, a red mark like a spear was quietly shining.

And the golden-haired lady raised her hand. A portion of the soil from the so-called King Arthur's grave turned into beads and came into her hands.
