What kind of Servant would Anti-Entropy summon?
Takatsuki could guess who Otto and World Serpent would summon.
Otto simply wanted to verify if this ritual could truly resurrect the dead, so the most direct way was to summon Kallen Kaslana.
As for experimenting with others, with only one chance, Otto wouldn't do such a thing, but he would definitely make multiple preparations before summoning.
Takatsuki could feel that the other party hadn't signed a contract yet.
And it was the same with World Serpent, but Takatsuki estimated that they would definitely want to contact Kevin first, or at the very least, enter Elysian Realm.
As for Anti-Entropy, Cocolia, and that little girl Yang Yuxin from Shenzhou, Takatsuki had no idea who they would summon.
After all, Anti-Entropy's greatest possibility was to find Welt Joyce, the first Herrscher of Reason, who could also be said to be their belief.
However, the Servant pool Takatsuki could provide was too shallow, and Joyce wasn't in it at all.
And Takatsuki felt that they had already summoned a Servant.
Although he could directly see who they summoned through the contract, Takatsuki still chose to see it with his own eyes.
Then he saw Medea, with a mournful face, chanting magic at a pile of scrap metal.
Next to her was a group of people, among whom Tesla said excitedly, "Quick, see if you can restore the Titan."
And Einstein was constantly tapping on her keyboard, recording something.
"No way, are your imaginations that wild?"
Takatsuki knew what they were doing when he saw this scene and heard Tesla's words.
Medea's Rule Breaker was not simply healing; it calculated the original appearance of something and then repaired it. It wasn't just for injuries; even conceptual things, like broken emotions, could be repaired.
Although it wasn't time manipulation, it achieved an effect similar to time manipulation.
But precisely because it wasn't time manipulation, it couldn't resurrect the dead.
"Waaahhh… Mr. Takatsuki—"
The moment she saw Takatsuki, Medea almost cried out, stopping her actions immediately amidst Tesla's startled shouts, and scurried behind Takatsuki to hide.
"What? You two know each other?"
Tesla crossed her arms: "But that little girl's Noble Phantasm is really amazing. It can even repair inanimate objects."
Einstein, seeing the experiment halted, also spoke: "Yes, even energy. If the Titan can be fully charged after being repaired, it might allow Father to be activated."
Father…
Takatsuki recalled the Father that was smashed in the story and remained unrepaired even when all Herrschers appeared.
Cocolia's purpose in all her evil deeds was also for that troublesome Father.
"Takatsuki, why are you here? Did something happen with Seele?"
Bronya, who had been nearby, also spoke.
"Don't worry, nothing will happen with me here. I'm here to find Siegfried."
"Siegfried isn't here at the moment. I asked him to investigate recent movements of Schicksal in England."
Welt said, "If you need to, I can contact him now."
"Yes, I'll trouble you. Several people at home are waiting for him now."
Welt nodded and didn't ask anything, directly contacting Siegfried.
Takatsuki didn't have Siegfried's contact information. Durandal and the others did, but when he left, he had confidently said to leave it to him, so it would be a bit embarrassing to go back and ask for contact information now.
While Welt was contacting Siegfried, Takatsuki looked at Medea behind him: "You guys are really something, you scared the little girl. Which of you is participating in this Holy Grail War?"
Tesla and Einstein both looked directly at Bronya, and Bronya raised her left hand, showing the Command Seal on the back of her hand, which had a mechanical feel and resembled Project Bunny.
"It's Bronya."
Takatsuki nodded. He wasn't surprised that Medea was summoned; it was the same old reason—the pool was too shallow.
"How about it? Want to form an alliance? The good news is, Kiana was chosen as one of the three random candidates."
As soon as Takatsuki finished speaking, he saw Tesla looking at him with a strange expression.
"What's wrong?"
"Nothing, but you didn't cheat, did you? Giving your own people a back door?"
Takatsuki shook his head: "If you're talking about the quota, then no, Kiana truly fought her way out from billions of people on her own."
"Who are the other two?"
"I can't say that, otherwise it would be too unfair."
"Huh? You're still talking about fairness? Is there any fairness now?" Tesla looked at Takatsuki in disbelief: "This little girl Bronya is with you, and although I don't know who you gave your own spot to, they must be with you too. Plus Kiana, almost half the people in this Holy Grail War are your own. And you're still talking about fairness to me?"
"This is different. As the saying goes, the outcome of a battle is often decided off the battlefield. Forming an alliance is a strategy in itself, after all, only one person can lift the Holy Grail, and only one person's wish can be granted."
Takatsuki shook his head. Alliances and betrayals are not uncommon in the Holy Grail War. Although their relationship is very good, which mostly prevents such issues, the objective fact remains: there is only one Holy Grail. Masters can coexist, but ultimately, only one Servant can remain.
"Then why didn't you just let your own people participate from the beginning?"
"Even an exhibition match has to be fought for real. Besides, the Holy Grail isn't my goal. Relying solely on the Holy Grail cannot overcome Honkai."
Takatsuki shook his head without elaborating, then looked at Bronya again: "How about it? Do you want to form an alliance? Or does Bronya have a wish that needs to be fulfilled with the Holy Grail?"
"A wish?" Bronya looked at Takatsuki's face and was momentarily stunned: "Bronya's wish has already been fulfilled. For this Holy Grail War, Bronya will go and help that idiot Kiana, after all, Kiana is an idiot."
"That's great, Mr. Takatsuki, we can fight side-by-side again this time."
Medea, hiding behind Takatsuki, said happily after hearing their conversation.
"Speaking of which, I remember that Heroic Spirits can only be summoned if they respond to the summons, right? Medea, do you have a wish for being summoned?"
After summoning Medea, Bronya also developed a slight fondness for the little girl. She always felt that Medea's personality was somewhat similar to Seele's, making her feel a sense of affection for her.
"No, I just came down because I heard someone needed help."
