### New Capital of Fuyuki City
The residential area east of the Mifunagawa River, originally developed from the wilderness during the period of rapid growth, is the new town of Fuyuki City. Although it was not initially planned as a historic mountain town, the city is now facing a large-scale redevelopment project as the government and citizens plan to transform the site of the former national railway into a modern commercial street. Although 40% of the buildings that will become the commercial district are still under construction, the park and mall in front of the station are about to open. The new capital will soon appear with a clean, pale, and elegant yet characterless appearance. The city government is gradually moving to the new capital, and various modern buildings made of steel, glass, and paint are being constructed. The urban functions of this mountain city are gradually being forced to change. Today, the city welcomes a group of infinite apostles who traverse worlds.
### A Shop Appears in Fuyuki City
A shop quietly appeared in an inconspicuous location in Fuyuki City. The blue color, like the sky, is the symbol of the shop, and the five large characters "Tendou Tofu Shop" are clearly visible at the entrance. Xunxin, Yaoyue, and Chilian appeared in the shop, looking at the shop that had appeared with a look of surprise.
"Contractor, this shop is designed based on your shop from the previous world. As a reward for passing through two worlds, it is given to you for free. The magic array on the shop is the same as the one from your previous world, except for the style. No need to thank me."
"… This guy actually gave me something for free this time. It can’t be that the difficulty of this mission is going to be very high, right…" Thinking that the Infinite Heart would give him something for free, Xunxin immediately felt a sense of crisis.
"Also, contractor, this world is a fusion world, partially merged with the information from the first world you passed through. Therefore, this world has the legends of the Rurouni Kenshin world. You need to be aware of this."
"… As expected, it’s a trap…" Xunxin无力地趴在店铺的桌子上。
### Preparations
After several days of preparation, Xunxin completed the replacement of the protective magic array centered around the Tendou Tofu Shop. The Infinite Heart simply replicated the shop Xunxin had used before and dropped it into Fuyuki City without considering that the magic array of the Tendou Tofu Shop was connected to the entire town. As a result, most of the magic array in the replicated Tendou Tofu Shop was in a state of disrepair, and Xunxin had to replace and upgrade it. After updating the magic array, Xunxin adjusted the energy source for the Tendou Tofu Shop to the local ley lines. To do this, Xunxin had to set up many hidden magic arrays to deceive the managers of the Fuyuki City ley lines, the Far坂 family. After completing all these preparations, Xunxin needed to summon a Servant, a specialty of Fuyuki City.
"Although the abilities of the summoned Servant can vary slightly due to the different materials used in the magic array, … if Fuyuki Tokichiro were to find out that you used nearly a ton of gemstone solution to draw this magic array, he would probably bleed to death…" A super-large magic array with a radius of 100 meters was drawn by Xunxin in just a few minutes. If it weren’t for the fact that the spirit summoning array wasn’t too complex and Xunxin had exchanged for a magic compendium below the ten hearts, it would have been impossible to complete such a large magic array. Xunxin had been exhausted just by charging the gems over the past few days. Even after injecting almost all of the magic power he had generated over these days into nearly a ton of top-grade gems, it was still far from enough. In the end, it was only with the infinite magic power provided by Yaoyue’s awakened bound weapon that the remaining part of the gem charging was completed.
After carefully checking the magic array, Xunxin inserted the Reverse Blade into the prepared altar. If the weapon used by the Heroic Spirit in life is used as a holy relic, the probability of summoning that Heroic Spirit is almost 100%.
"Although summoning Kenshin should not cause any problems among the Servants, the Infinite Heart has warned that this is a fusion world. The Reverse Blade used by Kenshin might be too obvious, and it could easily be recognized by those familiar with history during a battle. Moreover, Kenshin is a non-killer. Even so, Xunxin, are you still going to summon Kenshin, the non-killer?"
"… It’s fine. I value both the strength and the ability to get along with the Master when summoning a Servant. If I were to summon a top-tier ancient Heroic Spirit like the King of Heroes, there would be a significant advantage in combat, but I wouldn’t be able to get along well with them. Also, don’t forget that we are in Fuyuki City, Japan, where Kenshin’s reputation is high, which would bring attribute bonuses. The Kenshin I summon will appear as a Saber-class Servant, exploiting a loophole in the Holy Grail War. Although he might not match Artoria with the red dragon bloodline in terms of strength and endurance, Kenshin’s swordsmanship far surpasses that of King Arthur. It’s likely that the Hiten Mitsurugi-ryu will become Kenshin’s Noble Phantasm, giving us a significant advantage in human combat. As for large-scale enemies like the sea monster summoned by Caster, my power should be sufficient to handle them. Even if I can’t use the final arrival, which could destroy the entire Fuyuki City, my ordinary magic cannon, equivalent to a military Noble Phantasm, and my super ultimate spark, equivalent to a city Noble Phantasm, should be enough to handle them." Xunxin said confidently. Seeing that the time was right, Xunxin stood at the edge of the magic array, raised his right hand, and recited the incantation needed to summon the Heroic Spirit.
Fill, fill, fill, fill, fill, in a cycle, next is five, when full, it is the time to discard.
Proclaim
Your body, listen to my command, my life is with your sword.
Answer the call of the Holy Grail, if you are willing to follow this will and this righteousness, then respond.
Here I swear, I am the one who achieves all good deeds in the world, I am the one who gathers all the evils of the world.
You are the seven days of the three great words, the guardian of the balance wheel and the scales.
From the other side, come to this side, the legend wrapped in wind and lightning. The wind and dust gradually disappeared after the Heroic Spirit was summoned, and a familiar figure appeared in the center of the magic array.
"Servant Saber, I have come in response to the summoning. Who are you… Master?"
"Cough, yes, I am your powerful and handsome Master, Kenshin. And in this Holy Grail War, I will also be your Master."
"… Master, how old are you this year?" Kenshin looked at Xunxin with dead fish eyes.
"Um… Let me calculate… About a hundred years old, I think." After calculating the time, Xunxin came to this conclusion.
"… Oh, I didn’t expect you to still be alive, Master. But let’s complete the necessary ritual first. From now on, my sword is with you, and your fate is with me. —— Thus, the contract is completed."
The hope of seeing emotional exchanges between the master and apprentice was dashed. For the entire night, the two exchanged information. Neither Xunxin nor Kenshin were accustomed to the emotional displays of two men hugging and cuddling. Apart from the basic master-apprentice interactions, Xunxin spent most of his time studying Kenshin’s Noble Phantasm. The next morning, Kenshin was pitifully dragged out by Xunxin. The few boxes of tofu placed at the entrance reminded Kenshin of the time he was dragged by his master to deliver tofu in his past life.
"Well, Kenshin, you see, I’m so old, you must feel embarrassed to have me deliver the tofu myself, right? So, you can deliver this batch of tofu according to this map. You are familiar with the tofu shop, right? As the saying goes, when the master has a task, the disciple must serve it."
"… Master, I think delivering tofu like this will easily be noticed by other Servants." Kenshin said helplessly, thinking that having his master as the Master in the Holy Grail War was a significant advantage, but now it seemed that his unscrupulous master was just trying to summon a helper.
"Don’t worry about that. My motorcycle, the Tofu Ace, has a stealth effect, and I’ve also equipped you with several magic items that can hide the Servant’s aura. As long as you don’t attack, the other Servants won’t recognize you."
"… Unfortunate…" Under Xunxin’s overwhelming presence, Kenshin had no choice but to take the few boxes of tofu and activate the Tofu Ace, speeding away.
