Christopher watched as the sunset finally ended, and inky darkness crept its way through-

Suddenly, multicolored lights streaked through the sky, heading towards the… Einzbern camp? Glancing towards his map, with the data he could gather through his own observations, familiars, and golems, he checked his deduction, and it seemed to be correct.

Well then.

The Holy Grail War had officially begun, then. 

But where to…

Going to fight a proper magus in their Workshop was the worst possible idea, even with something as strong as a Servant at his side. The potential Workshops, or at least bases, he could easily recognize were the Temple’s, with its excellent leyline, position, and anti-spirit barrier, the other “fallen” leylines, and the graveyard, a good source of material for any competent necromancer. That’s not to mention the Three Families, but going anywhere near their homes was literally suicide, and was not worth contemplating.

Someone had the confidence to send arrows streaking into the night, and-

An oh-so-delightful individual was smashing one of his familiars in a bag, somewhere around the Fuyuki, as that was where it, a cat, last was. Well then.

So either walk around Fuyuki, looking for a fight or something of the like, or to respond to this individual’s “invitation.” Wonderful. 

“Avenger, it is time to commence the battle, finish your preparations and ready yourself. Unfortunately for us, staying in the base isn’t precisely going to win us the war and its prize. I am thinking that we go to the Docks, as someone’s assaulting one of my familiars, and I would think it would be terribly rude for us not to respond to their invitation. However, if you have any other ideas, I would be open to suggestions.”

After saying that, Christopher pulled on his gloves, put on his coat and all of its various “accessories,” and grabbed one of his suitcases. It would be time for him to test himself against other magi, and he would best be prepared, lest he be defeated swiftly and ignobly. And that wouldn’t do, would it?
