Ch 557: The Holy Grail War

Huo Huo glanced at Tail Master's figure, which had gained a bit of weight, and couldn't help but complain.

"Tail Master spends every day either strolling around Liyue Harbor or eating snacks and watching television at home, without offering any help at all.

Every time I go to Wuwan Slope to escort souls to the afterlife, Tail Master always finds excuses to avoid going."

Tail Master heard this and scratched his head awkwardly.

"What? When did I avoid it? I really did have things to do, it's just a coincidence that every time you have to escort souls to the afterlife, I have something to do.

Next time, next time I will definitely go with you!"

Huo Huo chuckled twice.

"Hehehe, I don't believe you."

Seeing this, Tail Master raised his tail and swore.

"I swear, next time, I will definitely go with you."

Huo Huo still chuckled twice, expressing disbelief.

"Let's just say I believe you."

Tail Master heard this.

"Really! I absolutely won't lie to you! Next time I'll go with you!

Today I heard the Officiant Girl say that we just took a new order, right? Let's send it a little later, I'll go with you, I'll do what I said!"

On the other side.

Kafka looked at Silver Wolf and Asmodeus, who were still playing games on their mobile phones even while eating.

"You two, eat first, and then you can play games after you finish eating."

After saying this, Kafka reached out and snatched the mobile phones from their hands.

Silver Wolf was immediately unhappy.

"Kafka! Give it back! I'm about to turn the tables on this game!"

Asmodeus also stood up and reached out to grab the phone from Kafka's hand.

Kafka sighed silently.

【Listen to me】

Silver Wolf and Asmodeus instantly froze in place.

Kafka continued.

"Now, eat obediently, and you can play on your phones after you've finished eating."

Silver Wolf and Asmodeus immediately sat back down on their stools and began eating heartily.

Xing saw this scene and clicked his tongue in amazement.

"Tsk tsk, Kafka's Spirit Language Technique is too overpowered, even Asmodeus is completely subdued by her."

Hearing this, Liuyin pointed at Asmodeus, who had recovered and was rebelling again.

"It's effective, but not much, now Asmodeus is starting to resist again."

Several people chatted while eating, and after a while, Sand Gold came over.

"Friends, how was the dining experience?"

Xing saw Sand Gold coming.

"Need I say more? Our kitchen team's skills are top-notch!"

Sand Gold nodded.

"Indeed, the chefs are all very skilled.

By the way, tomorrow is the Elimination Rounds of the Universal Flying Car Race, how are you all preparing?"

Xing heard this.

"Of course, I will definitely win, okay?"

Sand Gold smiled.

"You're very confident, which is a good thing.

However, I still have to remind everyone that there are many masters in this Flying Car Race.

The records they have created on each map have long surpassed yours."

Xing heard this and was immediately agitated.

"What? Someone beat my record? Is that true?"

Sand Gold smiled.

"Why don't you go and check the Racing Dungeon?"

Xing heard this.

"I'll go take a look later, let's eat first."

Sand Gold nodded and then turned to the others.

"Everyone, tomorrow, the Elimination Rounds of the Universal Flying Car Race will begin, those who are free can come to watch the race."

Nightingale stood up after hearing this.

"Everyone, I also have an announcement to make. We at Pinoccone are planning to hold a grand competition, the Holy Grail War!

Participants can summon their Servants to compete, and the final winner will become the owner of the Holy Grail!"

Xing, Hu Tao, and Kiana, a group of playful people, immediately gathered around when they heard Nightingale's announcement.

"Summon Servants? How do you summon them?"

"What's the use of the Holy Grail?"

"Are there God-type Servants?"

Nightingale looked at Xing and the others who were chattering around her and said.

"For this, I can only say it's similar to a card game, participants can summon Spirits through a similar card drawing method.

As for the use of the Holy Grail, I'll keep that a secret, I'll announce it when the competition officially begins."

Hu Tao asked.

"When will it start?"

Nightingale smiled.

"5 days later, the clan is making preparations."

Hu Tao heard this.

"Then this Hall Master needs to plan her time well, she needs to free up some time."

Ying said bluntly.

"Hu Tao, do you really need to plan your time? You're playing all day, do you really need to free up time?"

Hu Tao heard this.

"What nonsense! What nonsense! I'm the Wangsheng Funeral Parlor Director! I'm very busy, okay?"

Amber pointed to Huo Huo in the distance.

"You're the Wangsheng Funeral Parlor Director? I remember it's Huo Huo, many people in Liyue Harbor say that, hehe."

Eula nodded in agreement.

"That's right, all the escorting souls to the afterlife work at Wangsheng Funeral Parlor is now being done by Huo Huo.

The internet cafe, you've also handed it over to your employees, aren't you just playing with us every day now?"

Hu Tao heard this and retorted.

"This Hall Master is giving Huo Huo an opportunity to hone her skills, do you understand?

Han Ya and Xue Yi were asked to let Huo Huo follow this Hall Master to Wangsheng Funeral Parlor for advanced studies.

Advanced studies, you know? It means learning.

In our line of work, the most important thing is practical experience.

So, this Hall Master gave the jobs received by Wangsheng Funeral Parlor to Huo Huo to let her practice.

Didn't this Hall Master follow along every day in the beginning?"

Ying clapped perfunctorily.

"Ah～yes yes yes, you're so right!"

Hu Tao heard this.

"This Hall Master is telling the truth!"

Hu Tao was indeed telling the truth, she did have this intention when she handed over the affairs of Wangsheng Funeral Parlor to Huo Huo.

The purpose was to train Huo Huo and let her deal with dead people every day.

Gradually, she naturally mastered the related rituals and techniques.

Seeing that Ying still didn't believe her, Hu Tao helplessly spread her hands.

Nowadays, no one believes the truth, sigh~ sigh~, let's eat, eat.

After eating, go back and rest, tomorrow we'll participate in the Universal Flying Car Race and have some fun.

Hu Tao decided to put Wangsheng Funeral Parlor's advertisement on her car to expand the customer base.

Afterwards, everyone ate, drank, and played until more than two o'clock in the morning before the train car finally quieted down.

Spider Child happily packed a large bag of meals and returned to her "home" made of spider silk.

Spider Child hummed an unknown little tune as she returned home.

She threw down her snacks, leaped up, and landed precisely on the bed.

"Ah~ it's still more comfortable at home~ I can do whatever I want."

Saying this, Spider Child picked up a strawberry, removed the leaves from the stem, and ate it in one bite.

"Mmm~ strawberries are so delicious~ they're simply the best in the world."

While Spider Child was eating strawberries, her room suddenly began to heat up rapidly.

Spider Child poked her head out to take a look, good heavens! Fire was spreading along the spider silk.
