Chapter 1359: Soon (1/2)
Usually, Holy Grail War would happen at Fuyuki City in Japan, but there was an anomaly during this time Holy Grail War and it happened in Trifas, Romania.
So why did this anomaly happen?
It was because the Yggdmillennia had gotten Greater Grail during the previous Holy Grail War.
Then there is another question, who is Yggdmillennia?
Yggdmillennia is a unique family of Magus that takes in other families rather than continuing a single bloodline. Though they have a long history, they are not a family of Lords. They are speculated to have lost a power struggle with the three royal families of the Association in the past or have been estranged from others due to the poor quality of their magic circuits. They neither belong to nor have a connection to any other group, and they are often not recognized as a noble thaumaturgical family.
They abandoned the common method of thickening the blood of thaumaturgical potential over generations while mastering the thaumaturgical system chosen by the first generation. They instead took in all magi families with even the smallest connections to them from all over the world. They focused on taking in those with a little history and weak Magic Circuits, those with their Magic Circuits on the decline with successive generations, those defeated in power struggles that were forced into ruin, and those with a price on their head as a punishment by the Association.
Though the families had strayed from the core of the Association, they had refused to give up the path to the Root, so Yggmillennia gave them the chance to leave their blood's legacy and a mark upon history. Their family names are given as middle names to each member of the family, and the Magic Crests of each family are still passed down within each one rather than having a single unified crest for a single successor. This has caused them to develop a broad range of studies with each member pursuing a different path, which included Western alchemy, dark arts, witchcraft, astrology, Kabbalah, runology, and the Onmyodo of Japan.
They are considered to be a loose alliance of the new, the weak, and the dying, so the Lords consider them to be trivial. Though they have many in number, average members can usually only reach second-class, and only a few rare cases of first-class Magus exist. They pose little threat, and only the elder's, Darnic Prestone Yggdmillennia, political finesse allows them to be left alone. It was thought that their only merit was quantity, but the revelation of the Grail has changed that evaluation. They would have had no chance to become Lords in one thousand years, so they instead opted to form a new Association of Magi around their own clan.
The clan came to Romania from Northern Europe, and have used the Fortress of Millennia in Trifas as their base since the middle ages, although they have relatives across the world.
But that didn't really matter and it wasn't that uncommon for a Magus family to join the Yggdmillennia family, however, that only happened during peacetime and not during the Holy Grail War.
On the top floor of Fortress of Millennia, there was a luxurious room, and inside this room, there was a single man that stared at the crystal ball with a frown, staring at the young handsome man who shouted something unbelievable.
”Mr. Darnic Prestone Yggdmillennia! I am Kasugano Haruka! I am your fan! Let me work with you and join you in this revolution to bring down the Tower Clock together!”
The man stared at the young man for a while and rubbed his chin wondering whether his charm was so high that he had a fan, as everyone had guessed, this man was Darnic Prestone Yggdmillennia who happened to be the one that was admired by Haru.
However, that wasn't the problem since the biggest problem was this young man owned Command Spells!
In his mind, he wanted all the members of Yggdmillennia to own all the Command Seals, but the appearance of this young man broke that plan, however, this young man can to Trifas because he wanted to join him and destroy the current Clock Tower.
If this was a normal magician, then he wouldn't care, but the problem was that this young man was a very strong magician!
He could tell instantly when Haru entered the barrier, Haru directly flared out his Magic Power which made him instantly notice him the moment Haru entered the barrier.
Most of the Magus that entered the Yggdmillennia were the new, the weak, and the dying, and it was rare to see someone who had such a large amount of Od inside his body such as Haru.
(Od is the life-force energy found within living organisms such as humans, animals, and Magical Beasts).
