The young man's face showed a bit of curiosity. After all, anyone who saw their own family registry would be a little expectant that their family had some famous figures, right? Especially when they had guessed that their own family might have been very extraordinary in the past, this curiosity became even stronger.
He put the things in his hand to one side, then sat on the ground and slowly unrolled the scroll. It seemed this family registry had not been used for a long time. The last recorded name seemed to be his great-grandfather. The family registry didn't have many branches, or to be precise, there were no branches at all. Their family was a single-inheritance line. Even in the case where a single daughter was born in the family, the final choice was for the man to abandon his own surname, marry into their family, and then continue the single-inheritance line.
As for why this family registry was not used in time? It should be related to the time they moved to this house. It seemed that it was during his great-grandfather's time that the family had moved here. At that time, this family registry had been put in the warehouse and then was not found.
He continued to unroll the family registry, looking at the earlier periods. Only then did he discover that his family had actually changed their surname in the middle. The earliest surname recorded in this family registry was different from the surname of the second name. His ancestors, his very first ancestors, had a very famous surname.
[Muramasa]
Now, when one spoke of Muramasa, the most famous was the Muramasa blades. And the Muramasa clan, who had forged them, had disappeared into the long river of history. No wonder there were no more records of the Muramasa clan after that. They had probably all changed their names one after another. He didn't know the reason. Maybe it was because of their forging technology?
After all, "an innocent man gets into trouble because of his wealth." And thinking about the fact that he had the talent to peek into the other side of the world, while his own old man did not, the young man had roughly guessed something. After all, although he was an optimist, it didn't mean he was a fool. More or less, he was always at the top of his class.
He rolled up the family registry again and placed it at the bottom of the box. He would just pretend that he had never discovered this family registry. Hundreds of years had already passed. He couldn't be sure what the reason was back then that had caused his ancestors to change their surname, but in any case, it wasn't a good thing. And the former glory of the family had already passed away. Just let this pain, along with that past, sleep in this corner of the family's history. What's more, if he became a great swordsmith, then in the future, their family's new name might not be unable to sit side by side with the former name of Muramasa. If his ancestors could see that he, the descendant, had surpassed them, his ancestors would surely only feel happy and would not have any other thoughts.
While continuing to sort out the sundries in his family's warehouse, the young man began to think about the things that had happened during this period. Speaking of which, his cheap magic teacher had also taken a two-month leave from school. It seemed he had something important to attend to. He wondered if his cheap teacher had managed to get things done.
"Ouch."
A sharp pain came from the back of his hand. Looking at the protruding wooden splinter on the old wooden board at the side, and the wound on the back of his hand, the young man sighed. He picked up a discarded iron kettle and slammed it hard on this wooden board, smashing all the burrs and protrusions flat. Even a good old man has a temper. It was just that the young man did not notice that the blood on the back of his hand had begun to outline a strange red tattoo.
In Antarctica, in the summoning room, all the magi and technicians in Antarctica were gathered here. It was no secret to them that their own director was going to participate in the Holy Grail War. Whether it was to witness the summoning of a Heroic Spirit, or to capture the fluctuations and state generated during the summoning of a Heroic Spirit, in order to perfect their Chaldea's special summoning system.
Marisbury, of course, did not refuse the others to watch. After all, this was also helpful for perfecting their entire Chaldea.
In fact, if these people hadn't gathered, he would have issued a notice to let everyone come and watch.
He raised his hand, revealing the three Command Spells on the back of his hand. Marisbury prepared to conduct the Heroic Spirit summoning in Antarctica, and then rush to Fuyuki. On one hand, only this place had so many instruments. On the other hand, of course, it was also to prevent someone from attacking them on the way. After all, the fact that Marisbury was out looking for a catalyst was not a secret. If someone with intentions really wanted to stop Marisbury from going to the Far East, then they could, of course, choose to attack him on the way.
"Is everyone ready?"
Upon hearing their director's inquiry, all the surrounding staff nodded. Everything was ready. Whether it was the summoning of the Heroic Spirit, or the subsequent capture of all fluctuations, and even the viewing of the video, had all been checked several times. The only ones standing here who had seen the summoning of a Heroic Spirit were one or two. The others were all seeing it for the first time.
That's right, those one or two were Aslan and Melusine.
Even Marisbury himself had only gone to the Far East after the last Holy Grail War had begun. He had naturally never seen the summoning of a Heroic Spirit.
So Marisbury was also a bit excited at this moment. Most importantly, although this Heroic Spirit was not the existence he had originally wanted to summon, he was definitely a first-rate, or even a top-tier Servant. As long as he could obtain victory in this Holy Grail War, he would no longer have to worry about the problem of a financial deficit in the future.
At the thought that his financial deficit phobia was very likely to bid him farewell, Marisbury couldn't help but feel a bit of relaxation in his heart. From now on, he would no longer have to pretend to be sick in the infirmary. From now on, all the researchers could go all out to conduct their project research. This was something he had been looking forward to for a long time.
"Fill, fill, fill, fill, fill.
Let each be turned over five times, simply breaking asunder the fulfilled time."
The expression on Marisbury's face began to become serious. He looked at the summoning circle in the center emitting a dazzling light, nodded at the surrounding people, and then continued to chant.
"I announce!!"
Following the chant, a violent surge of magical energy erupted directly within the entire magic circle.
All the surrounding devices issued a warning. But fortunately, this was within expectations. Very quickly, the staff made adjustments. The alarm was silenced, and everyone also squinted their eyes at this time. Although the light was dazzling, no one was willing to close their eyes at this moment and miss something crucial.
All the surrounding researchers also began to collect the upcoming magical energy fluctuations, and at the same time, began to observe the entire Heroic Spirit summoning system, preparing to decipher the entire summoning system at a deeper level.
