Ebner felt he had fallen into a misconception and couldn't help but reflect:
Only I, who know I cannot release Zaratul's historical projection, and a limited few deities who are familiar with past transmigrators, know that the Goddess opposes Roselle's resurrection plan...
But in the eyes of outsiders, or rather, Outer Deities, the Goddess probably sent me to rescue Roselle!
This is absolutely a misdirection!
Roselle established this "Dream Labyrinth Tower" and painstakingly wanted to resurrect a separated part of his soul, which must have been influenced by the "Fallen Mother Goddess"... Or, even if his initial intention was his own decision, there must have been problems during the setup process!
This is just like when his main body wanted to use the "return of the Black Emperor" to cleanse contamination, yet he deliberately placed the last mausoleum on that problematic island.
And since the "Fallen Mother Goddess" invested a considerable "cost" in this matter and believes She successfully "deceived" the Evernight Goddess and the God of Knowledge, She will certainly not give up easily. She will likely gradually increase the cost... and this might be what the deities are plotting...
As for which deity is the mastermind? Ebner believes it must be Lilith, who, from the very beginning, acted as if it had nothing to do with Her, expressed a neutral stance, but was the only one who could act near the "Chaos Sea"!
As for the contradictions and conflicts between the God of Knowledge and the Evernight Goddess in some details, it's probably just to make the act more convincing.
In the eyes of the "Fallen Mother Goddess," She probably accepts any method of Roselle's resurrection, as She can use it to infiltrate more power through the barrier...
But obviously, letting me release Zaratul's historical projection, making the deities inside the barrier believe that Roselle's resurrection is truly "uncontaminated," aligns more with Her intentions.
After all, if Roselle were to return in a potentially "contaminated" state, the deities of Earth would not stand idly by.
Therefore, She will definitely try Her best to ensure I win the "Holy Grail" War and reach the wish-granting stage.
And to force Her to continuously increase Her "cost"... why not just lie flat and see how far the contaminated "Roselle" and the "Fallen Mother Goddess" behind him can favor me.
As thoughts raced, Ebner nodded to "Temperance" Sharon, saying, "Thank you for the reminder, Miss Temperance... I've figured it out."
Recalling the "historical projection" talisman given by the Goddess, Ebner roughly guessed Lilith and Amanises' plan.
"What have you figured out?" Klein asked deeply.
Ebner glanced at him, smiling, "It's better if you two don't know some things... And this trap is probably tacitly approved by Mr. Fool, and even more credible because of your involvement!
"So, when the time is right, Mr. Fool should tell you personally."
Mr. Fool tacitly approved? How would I know that? Don't make decisions for Mr. Fool without permission! Klein grumbled inwardly, but he couldn't tell if "Tower" genuinely believed that, or if he had already seen through his identity and was deliberately teasing him.
Calm down, calm down. The 'respect' and 'trust' that 'Tower' usually shows me aren't faked. If he had known all along that I, the 'Fool,' was a 'fake,' he wouldn't have had that genuine 'respect.'
After all, respect for a person generally depends on their strength, status, and achievements.
If he had known all along that I was Klein in disguise, it's impossible that he was respecting my 'achievements,' right?
Heh, what credit do I have in this world? Awe of strength is more reasonable.
Having convinced himself, Klein also understood that the matters involved here were probably truly unsuitable for him and Sharon to know, so he nodded and changed the subject, asking, "Have you summoned a Heroic Spirit?"
"Not yet." Ebner shook his head, then expressed some of his conjectures about Heroic Spirit summoning, concluding with, "In short, if no 'Holy Relic' is used to sacrifice a high-level soul, then the resulting Heroic Spirit will most likely be an impersonation of 'Roselle's Phantom.'"
"Is that so?" Klein's tone was slightly off, but he quickly controlled it and then asked, "If every 'tower climber' used a 'Holy Relic,' wouldn't Roselle's act of 'gathering' those 'phantoms' fail?"
"The churches, as supervisors, must possess a large number of 'Command Seals.' Even if everyone uses 'Holy Relics,' they can probably still produce many extraordinary Heroic Spirits, as this is also the norm for Holy Grail Wars.
"And there probably aren't too many 'Roselle Phantoms' anyway..." Ebner replied after thinking for a moment.
You're really familiar with the Holy Grail War... Klein muttered inwardly, then carefully said, "Actually, I've already summoned a Heroic Spirit..."
"What kind of Heroic Spirit?" Ebner asked curiously, eager to know what kind of "Heroic Spirit" Roselle had designed.
Would it be consistent with the original Fate/stay night (FSN) story, or would it directly use historical figures from the "Mysteries" world?
"I didn't know then that the true 'Holy Relics' were the 'souls' of high-sequence Beyonders, so I asked Mr. Fool to bestow a blasphemy card... well, I placed the 'Witch' card there..." Klein explained, organizing his words.
"What was the result?" Ebner was quite "impressed" by Klein's operation and grew even more curious.
"I summoned a Rider-class Medusa..." Klein thought for a moment, then added, "The one from FSN."
Not Lancer? But Rider-class Medusa does fit better with the 'Witch' card...
"Her appearance is extremely similar to the one in FSN, and her self-perception is 'Medusa'...
"Her normal state should have Sequence 3 level strength, but her pathway cannot be discerned from her abilities, nor can she display a 'Semi-Mythical Form.'
"And according to her, after her 'Noble Phantasm' is unleashed, she can unleash strength at the 'Angel' level.
"Also, she told me that Servants almost never disobey Command Seal orders, which is different from how it's described in the story." Klein paused here and couldn't help but ask, "Is she really shaped from a Roselle Phantom?"
Her appearance is probably 'imagined' into existence, her personality perhaps bestowed by a 'Dream Weaver,' and her abilities are closer to being pieced together with 'simulation' and applied to her, so her pathway can't be discerned... As for Noble Phantasm release, it's either temporarily summoning a 'historical projection' or 'mystical reappearance'... Of course, it could also be the effect of a 'simulated' high-rank 'recording' ability.
As for the Command Seals... is it a modified version of the 'Herding' ability?
Hmm, perhaps the 'Holy Grail summoning' system is a 'secret art' composed of all the above abilities combined... It's a shame that this 'secret art' likely utilizes the 'Chaos Sea' and the special environment of 'Groselle's Travels,' so even if one learned it, it couldn't be replicated in the real world.
As Ebner pondered, he also responded to Klein's earlier question: "I think so... You can try to 'awaken' him... If successful, your Heroic Spirit's strength might even increase."
"Awaken..." Klein was thoughtful, and a whole plan instantly formed in his mind.
Then, after the three discussed where to meet up, the conversation shifted to the "battle plan" segment.
But at this moment, Ebner shook his head and said, "This map... no, I mean this scenario is very large, almost the same size as the 'City of Miracles' Liveseyd, encompassing the entire Honshu Island.
"There's no need for us to concentrate in Fuyuki City. We can go travel for a few days first, experience the unique 'civilization' created by Roselle, and only maintain necessary surveillance on Fuyuki... Wouldn't it be better if we only came over to clean up the mess when they're almost done fighting?"
Klein was dumbfounded. He thought for a moment, then tentatively asked, "Wouldn't that be cheating? Won't we be disqualified as 'Masters'?"
"If it were a normal 'Holy Grail War,' of course it would...
"But I have a premonition that the 'Church' in this scenario will go easy on us."
Ebner narrowed his eyes and said.
Lying flat like this would also help test the "Fallen Mother Goddess'" tolerance limit.
And if his prediction was wrong and they really were disqualified as "Masters," then that would be even better; he and Klein wouldn't have to worry about it anymore.
