Rafe noticed their open observation and couldn't help but glance at Weber.
'Is it him?'
He now has some doubts: could Weber be the one who exudes that Holy Grail aura?
It's understandable that he would be suspicious, mainly because Weber's actions were too convincing. He was constantly watching everyone's every move, as if he suspected that there was something wrong with the Chaldea people.
Okay, not just seemingly, Weber did indeed have that suspicion.
He was just thinking that if Marne was fine, then Chaldea must be the problem.
Otherwise, why would problems arise here as soon as they arrive?
If it wasn't Marx and Engels who did it, then it could only have been someone from within Chaldea.
Moreover, this person may have already realized their purpose in coming here, which is why they rushed to cause trouble.
Chapter 193 First Encounter with Group A, Marne: Jack or Kyoko, choose one.
Weber already had a suspect in the person who caused this trouble.
Thinking this, Weber glanced at Rafe subtly before quickly looking away.
Yes, he suspects Rafe is behind it all.
Because I had contact with them and knew that there weren't many people who were coming—just a handful.
Aside from the staff who greeted them, there was only the director, Olga Marie, and executive Rafe.
Knowing that he was there for an inspection, only Olga Marie and Rafe were present at the beginning.
Most of the other people only found out after the incident, so these two are the prime suspects.
Based on his observations, Olga Marie can be ruled out first.
This girl doesn't seem like the type to scheme and plot; she's too immature, like an immature child.
Therefore, Webber locked in the only remaining player, Rafe.
Of course, we cannot rule out the possibility that it was one of the staff members who knew about their arrival.
However, Weber needs to observe these people further; he cannot contact them at the moment.
Amidst the mutual distrust between Waver and Rafe, a noisy and busy night passed in Chaldea.
The anomalies in Chaldea were investigated and identified as singularities. Chaldea then began to take action to deal with the singularities.
The first order given was to cooperate with the Mage's Association to begin recruiting Master-suited and Spirit Transfer-suited personnel worldwide to expand the 'Humanity Salvation' team.
Meanwhile, the status of each facility was checked in preparation for the commencement of the spirit transfer experiment in the near future.
After that night, Maren's job was finally confirmed: to work alongside Da Vinci as the technical advisor for the 'Guardian Spirit Summoning System: Destiny'.
However, Da Vinci was in charge of the summoning system itself, while Maren was responsible for the handover with the Masters and assisting them in choosing suitable Servants.
It was through this job that Ma En met the members of Group A in Group A's preparation room.
The captain of the handsome young nobleman: Talia Wodim.
A plant-themed literature girl:
Known as a modern-day Valkyrie, and possessing both heroic spirit and gentle beauty: Aya Famsolone.
A three-no man who looks like a robot: Zem Void.
A slightly gloomy but warm-hearted man: Zemrups.
The eldest male: Navia Peperoncino.
More like a gangster and murderer than a magician: Gat.
The above seven Masters, plus Mash Kyrielight who is slated to be both a Demi-Servant and a Master, constitute the entirety of Group A.
However, Mash wasn't there; she had gone to assist Leonardo da Vinci in researching how to fuse Heroic Spirits.
"Hello, Advisor Ma En, I am the captain of Group A, Kirshtalia Wodim. Please take care of me."
Kirshtalia was the first to come forward and greeted Marn warmly.
They can't be unenthusiastic either. Heroic Spirits, or rather Servants, are their main means of combat after the Spirit Transfer, and their only reliance at that time.
Therefore, it's natural to cultivate a good relationship with Maren, an advisor who can be very helpful in selecting Heroic Spirits.
"Hello." En nodded, took out a form, and got straight to the point: "I heard that you all already have Servants you plan to summon. I would like to ask why you made your choices."
Seeing Marne's businesslike attitude, Kirshtalia, as the captain, was the first to cooperate and replied, "My priority is compatibility with myself, and then strength."
Then he looked at the team members behind him and gestured.
Kadoc replied, "I planned to summon Caster because I have too little mana. A Servant that consumes too much mana would affect my ability casting."
Debit: "I'm not good at communicating, so I chose Berserker."
Peperoncino: "It's a personal interest of mine. I really like Indian mythology. That mythological view of destruction and destruction is really fascinating."
Beryl: "I have a compatibility problem; it seems like only Assassin can get along with me."
Hinako Akuta: "There's no reason."
Ma En glanced at her.
Don't think I don't know what you're thinking.
All he wanted to do was see his ex-lover; this is blatant misuse of public transportation.
However, Marne was too lazy to expose her and looked at Ophelia at the end.
Ophelia: "It's because of personal preference that I don't particularly like certain Servants."
“I see. I understand. I will make a list for you later, and you can choose a specific Heroic Spirit from it. At that time, the list should prepare the corresponding relics for you.”
Ma En quickly jotted down the requirements, then waved his hand and said, "I'll get back to work now. I'll talk to you privately if there are any problems later."
Seeing Ma En come and go in a hurry, no one reacted for a moment. They didn't expect Ma En to ask a simple question and leave. They looked at each other in bewilderment.
Actually, Marx and Engels didn't have anything to do.
It's just that everyone in Group A is focused on one thing right now, making it a bit difficult for him to approach.
As for the preliminary list mentioned earlier, it was just an excuse to contact them individually.
Marne wouldn't tell them too much about the Heroic Spirits, lest they become Hidden Ones and use that information against Chaldea.
Although Marne wasn't entirely on Chaldea's side, he was at least on humanity's side; he didn't have the habit of aiding the enemy.
Another point is that Ma En didn't actually know much about the heroic spirits; all he knew was a portion of Yun Lai's abilities from his previous life.
Therefore, Marne will not make any recommendations for these people in Group A, but he might be willing to take on some risks.
For example, that scumbag, isn't he supposed to summon an Assassin? Then let's recommend a very 'kind' Assassin to him.
"Little Jack? Or perhaps Kyoshiko?"
If we're talking about who's the most 'kind' among the Assassins, then these two are definitely the top contenders, both having a history of killing their masters as soon as they're summoned.
"They all seem pretty good."
The thought of these two being summoned by the scoundrel and then instantly turning on their master to kill him brought a smile to Ma En's face.
Meanwhile, Beryl, who was waiting in the preparation room, suddenly shivered, and his heart began to pound.
"What's wrong, Beryl?"
The eldest sister, Peipei, was the first to notice her companion's unusual behavior and asked her with concern.
Seeing this, the kind-hearted Kadoc asked with concern, "Are you feeling unwell? Should we go to the infirmary to see a doctor?"
Beryl paused for a moment, then waved her hand and said, "No need, thank you. I just had a sudden heart palpitation, but I'm much better now."
Captain Kirshtalia frowned slightly and instructed, "If it's not working, don't force it. Go to the infirmary as soon as possible."
“Okay, I will.” Lille nodded in agreement.
Seeing this, everyone stopped caring and continued to pass the time.
Chapter 194 Fou from Beast 4: An Encounter in the Cafeteria
Marne was unaware of what was happening in Group A. After leaving the preparation room, he went directly to Leonardo da Vinci's workshop.
Because he doesn't have his own office yet, he has to work wherever he can find a place to work, but he's not familiar with other places, so he came here.
Inside the workshop, Da Vinci was fiddling with some equipment on his workbench, while Mashu sat obediently at the desk beside him, holding a white creature the size of a squirrel in her arms.
"Hey, Marne, you're back. How did the handover go over there?"
Upon seeing Marx and Engels arrive, Leonardo da Vinci, who was working, looked up and greeted them with a smile.
"It was alright, they were all quite cooperative, and it was done quickly."
Maren casually replied, "Can I borrow your desk?"
"No problem, you can use it."
Ma En nodded, sat down at the desk, smiled at Mashu, and said, "My daughter's here too. And what's this little guy?"
Mashu hesitated for a moment, too lazy to refute Maren's address, and picked up the white creature in her arms to explain, "This is Fou-san, a peculiar creature that can roam freely in Chaldea."
"I guess I'm the one who takes care of it, but it slept in its room yesterday, so I didn't bring it out."
"I see. Your name is Fufu. Hello."
Ma En smiled and reached out a finger to the little guy, rubbing its cheek.
"Fuu~!"
The little guy let out a cheerful cry, then lightly leaped onto Ma En's shoulder, nuzzled his cheek with his little head, and even licked it.
"It seems like it likes you a lot. That's rare. Fufu-san usually doesn't take the initiative to get close to anyone."
"Really? I'm honored."
Ma En laughed as he grabbed Fufu, wiped his face with a handkerchief, and then petted the little beast.
"I'm sorry, although you are very cute and I like you very much, I am not used to being so close to small animals."
