My Fanfics. Read 'em. Or not.McJon01: We all know that the real reason Archer would lose to Rider is because the events of his own Holy Grail War left him with a particular weakness toward "older sister" types.
maybe she is actually the Zmey larping as Dobyrynya, idk
Don't think so, the bond 10 CE is the Zmei Gorynych
The text flavor goes along like
Dobrynya: This is the dragon I slayed
Guda: BTW, how did your wife felt when you went away adventuring for so long
Dobrynya: Eh?! Well...
Zmei: Why the fuck are you talking about your wife now and not me?!
(The artwork is pretty cool at least, great design for Zmei)

What's Sion saying at the start? Also did Ibuki just randomly get summoned in the border or did she follow us from the WS? They way she appears feels a bit random.
I realised I miss it when they give you a set party for the first fight in a chapter so that you can get a preview of what gimmicks are coming without being chucked in blind.
can't believe holmes fucking died
Jiang Ziye hits really hard, when he is against divine he outdamages all the other AoE Riders.
Because you are too young. Or too stupid. Or both.
I mean the debuffs weren't even that bad... It was just like order change got disabled. No big
WELP that was a nice start for the story. A bit short but straight to the point, we going there to take out Vitch while doing test run in preparation for LB7.
speaking of something strange, it looks like Jiang Ziya in story is not a servant. similar situation with Merlin in Babylonia.
he said he came straight from 仙境 (dunno the appropriate translation) before he corrected he was being summoned.
Google translate gives 'wonderland' for 仙境. And we're chasing a rabbit so...
You can read the NP section in his profile for confirmation on that. The servant we have is a bunrei of him - the Xian Jiang Ziya. The real him already attained Xian-hood. That's why he said he came from "domain of Xian"
- - - Updated - - -
wonderland is kinda unironically fitting because the realm of the Xians in Chinese myth are literally supposed to be a paradise-ish place but not really paradise.
speaking of rabbits, what's the chance that Vitch is fused with this thing
https://zh.wikipedia.org/wiki/%E8%AE%B9%E5%85%BD
I suppose it depends on if the blank spaces on Vitch's profile are accurate in the amount of letters they indicate. Unless the Japanese translation of that animal mentioned is a lot longer, it seems unlikley. Of course it could be another Castoria case where they completely redo her bio after the relevant event.
Edit: What was the earliest of the fox spirt legends? I recall hearing that there were some in India and Korea but were they earlier than Daji?

???: Sion. Sion Eltnam Sokaris. Visitor from Atlas. The one who personally traced the route to destruction. Your condition to use the Wandering Sea: In exchange for the newly-issued 8th Atlas Contract, you get permission to live in the Wandering Sea for one year of virtual time on the bleached Earth. Your time limit is approaching. Shall you revise this future?
Sion: No. No cuts or retakes. Please keep the contract unaltered. I ask for the dignitary families of the Wandering to keep watching Chaldea.
???: Very well... Each of us from Baldanders, the Wandering Sea, acknowledges your genius. Selen, Gate of Preservation, offers a toast to your mind and spirit. Ganne, Gate of Rebirth, pities your actions. Ellen, Gate of Advancement, mocks your losses. Guénon, Gate of Storage, empathizes with your mission. Fushiruka, Gate of Subordination, remains ever spiteful. In respect to the Atlas Institute, us of the Wandering Sea will turn a blind eye to the Human Order Preservation Whatever-they're-called.
Sion: Phew. Weird comms line disconnected. Well that was a surprise. Didn't think I'd ever get a call from the Wandering Sea. That's from Ganne's Gate of Rebirth. Ganne was the one who took one mage from the Clock Tower as a student around 1000AD, right? Were they using a relatively modern person as a middle man? Or are they just lacking people? Well, now is not the time for theory crafting. Let's get back to work!
