Chapter 471 The Value of the "Riding" Skill
The various Scotts initially shifted blame to each other, but they quickly reached an agreement.
Scott's men: "Greddy! Do you still want to win the Holy Grail? Rewrite the script right here, change the set! Give me more power, let me crush them! Like a real devil, I'll have them in the palm of my hand!"
Greedy sighed, utterly disappointed: "I'm sorry, Mr. Scott, I misjudged you."
Greta: "You're a natural comedian, only suited to playing clowns. Putting you in a horror movie is not only a waste of your acting talent, but also a desecration of the camera."
Xing: [That's still an understatement.]
Scotts: "Greddy! You want to rebel again? Don't forget, I'm your Master. If I use a Command Spell, you'll have to—quack? Quack quack quack quack?"
Suddenly, Scott, like Sand Gold, seemed to have been silenced.
Greta: "Three Command Seals and you think you can control me on my set? Mr. Scott, you're fired."
Director's cut audio track: "Actors, you have witnessed the unsightly scene of the director arguing with the actors. Underestimating the power of the Holy Grail was my mistake, and I shouldn't have let you all gather together."
Director's cut audio: "So, I will do my best to adjust the timing of your entrances. In the next film, I will continue to enjoy your ear-piercing screams."

When the opening credits disappeared, everyone was scattered and separated again.
Hoshino and Archer arrived at the opera house gates.
Archer: [We...left his Reality Marble?]
Xing: [Something's not right.]
Xing: [Our dialogue is still in subtitles.]
Director's cut audio track: "Whenever night falls, Clockwork Paradise reveals its hidden side."
Director's cut audio track: "You, the protagonist, open your eyes, only to find yourself in an inescapable nightmare. Now, a terrible enemy has come to your side."
Archer*speechless*: [Knowing we're allies, why are you still trying to sow discord?]
Director's Cut Audio Track: "Mr. Archer, you don't seem like the kind of Servant who would rigidly adhere to an alliance. Wouldn't it be wonderful to take advantage of this 'split operation' I've specially arranged to eliminate an opponent for your Master?"
Archer's Thoughts: [This suggestion is indeed worth considering.]
Xing: [Don't get turned!]
Archer: ["Should I kill her?" I rejected the answer to this question 12 times before you woke up. If I were to act, you wouldn't have a chance to open your eyes.]
Director's cut audio: "Too bad, I thought you were a smart guy. Then you're in for a lot of trouble—"
Director's Cut Audio Track: "The evil watchmaker brings from hell evil spirits who control various curses. Disguised as harmless dolls in paradise, they lure their victims into sleep, endlessly tormenting their souls."
Star: "I'm a director at Croker Films. Do you have the rights to our Watch Kid movies?"
Director's cut audio track: "Don't worry, the organizer's PR team will take care of it for me—I dreamed of turning the Crook Studios into my nightmare park in my past life, and I never thought it would come true in this way."
Director's Cut Audio: "It's an experience even more exhilarating than eating a three-layered Stargazing pie. Enjoy it, dear characters, until..."
Director's cut audio track: "Become a toy for evil spirits!"
Archer: [If you're planning to stay here, I don't mind considering Assassin's suggestion to let you leave early.]
Archer: [Let's go. According to that famous director, we should go and be tormented by evil spirits.]
The two ignored his words and walked through the gates of the Kroc Film Park.
Xing found another note on the ground.
Clockwork Night
One or two, the dream is locked away by musical notes.
Thirdly, wolves love to eat crying.
Five, six, turn the revolver to the center of your eyebrows.
Seven or eight, the clock is ticking.
Ninety, the evil spirit is about to attack.
..........
Star*Speechless*: [That's really strange, do horror movie directors all like to do this kind of thing?]
Xing threw away the note and continued following Archer.
Xing* pointed ahead*: [That looks like Miss Yin Fu. Wait, what's in front of her?]
Archer: Let's go take a look.
A doll stands in front of Miss Note, holding a violin in her hand.
Miss Note: 【▆?▆▆▆█?▆！】
Grandma Note: [Sorry, darling, I almost forgot, your voice is now my private property.]
Grandma Musical Notes: [It started with the song's copyright, then the image, and finally the name...]
Grandma Note: [They found a girl younger and prettier than you, and ███ became her stage name. And you, you died with your eyes wide open in the wasteland of dreams.]
Grandma Note: [I will slowly devour your body, and even the borrowed pseudonym "Miss Note" will become my possession.]
Star* stopped him: [This isn't copyright, this is monopoly!]
Grandma Musical Notes: [Finally here! Perfect timing to let your friends enjoy your embarrassing moments.]
Grandma Note: [Don't rush into anything, handsome young man in red. Despite my old age, I can easily take this Miss Note with me before you make your move.]
Archer: [Why should I lay down my weapon for an enemy Servant? Wouldn't it be better to let you both die together?]
Archer: [In my opinion, you're just like Greedy, a blustering empty shell.]
Grandma Note: [That's true. You foolish outsiders certainly don't understand just how powerful this nameless Servant truly is in the land of Pinocchio.]
Grandma Musical Notes: [Let's just consider this a charity performance, so you can really appreciate a glimpse of the power of Casters.]
Grandma Note: [A harmonious song is enough to make all life willingly dance for me, becoming my familiars. As for you, drown in the syrup.]
After the puppet finished speaking, countless dream-torn troupes appeared in a cloud of smoke.
The atmosphere suddenly became tense.
At that moment, Saber appeared behind them.
Saber: [That's hard to say.]
Saber: [Those who fight with stolen weapons will ultimately be hurt by the weapons they wield. If I were you, I wouldn't so recklessly use the power I stole from Miss Note.]
Saber: [Master, are you alright?]
Star* complains*: 【Archer threatened me.】
Saber (angry): [Archer, what nonsense did you spout in front of the Trail Blazers again?]
Archer*helplessly*: [I didn't—no, is this the time to go and complain to an adult?]
Grandma Musical Notes: [Dare to steal my lead role? All of you, get on set! Whoever can beat them, the investors will reimburse them for life with their sulfamethoxazole!]
An extra who loves soda: 【For Sulphurda!】
All the extras: [For the free lunchboxes!]
Saber: [Sulfa? Two bottles of syrup, and you're willing to serve the devil? Where has your dignity as monsters gone?]
An extra who loves soda: [I'm already an extra, how can I care about saving face?]
Saber: [Humans, fairies, even monsters of the mountains and forests—all sentient beings have the right to earn hope with their own hands. And the weight of your souls far exceeds the price offered by this employer.]
Saber: [I cannot promise you a paradise. But I can assure you that I will always be at the forefront, leading the charge, rather than hiding behind and watching you die.]
Saber: [Will you be manipulated by it and become a clown for life, or will you be a knight for a moment for the sake of dignity? It's not too late to turn back now.]
All the extras: [There's only one answer.]
All extras: [Where our king's sword points, our hearts follow!]
Grandma Note: [I was here first, so why can you control my familiar?]
Star*Arrogant*: [Leadership qualities, friend, and our skills have higher priority.]
Grandma Note, *angrily*: [And you lot, you betrayed us after just a couple of sentences? A bunch of mere extras, do you even want your paychecks?]
An extra who loves soda: [You arrogant jerk, what else can you do besides blackmail us with money? I'm the King of Knights' mount now, not some familiar you treat like a dog!]
Saber: [Ramri III, I bestow upon you the name of my beloved horse. Now, join me in vanquishing the demon before us!]
All extras: [In the name of the King!]
In an instant, all the Dream Theatre troupes defected and ran to Saber's side.
Grandma Note: [Stop! If you kill me, you familiars will also disappear.]
Grandma Musical Notes: [Ah—ah!]
The subtitle "[Bang]" appears, and the puppet musical note grandma is completely destroyed.
Miss Note: [Not only did I fail to protect my Master and was forced to scatter, but the enemy even had to come and rescue me personally. I—]
Archer: [Madam, in situations like this, you should say "thank you," not something as discouraging as "sorry."]
Miss Note: [No matter how I try to explain, I can't hide my incompetence and dereliction of duty. A servant without power is nothing more than a worthless puppet.]
Saber: [There's something I need to ask about Miss Robin—never mind, you guys should just come with me.]
The group moved forward under Saber's guidance.
Soon they arrived at a place where a lipstick, a crown, and a microphone were placed in front of them.
Saber: [I don't know what the enemy did, but Miss Robin split into many... It took me quite a while to find these in front of me.]
Miss Note: [As expected, I accomplished absolutely nothing in this war and am unworthy of being called a Heroic Spirit.]
Star: [The "Don't Laugh in Your Dreams" Challenge.]
Director's cut audio track: "You like to use the power of homophony to find fault with me? Then let's break your singers into a pile of loose sand and see who can help you get out of my nightmare paradise."
At that moment, the microphone emitted a sound.
The Singing Robin: 【Please don't be sad because of us.】
The Singing Robin: "You have done your best, ah, like an iris by the water!"
Director's cut audio track: "Incompetence is incompetence; there's no need to make excuses for her."
Then the lipstick made a sound.
Polite Robin: [It's a meme! When I find that bastard Scott, I'll definitely pull his hair out!]
The crown also made a sound.
Scholar Robin: [In my judgment, the separation of us into different individuals mostly stems from feelings of revenge. However, due to the self-merging nature of consciousness itself, theoretically, as long as all the "selves" are gathered together...]
Star*Excited*: [We can combine to form a giant robot!]
Archer: [Spare me, is there no decent person here?]
Director's cut audio track: "The correct answer is that it will be able to reassemble into its original form. As long as you can survive the curse of the demons."
Star*Excited*: [Let's hurry up and set off!]
Scholar Robin: [Do you really want to fight the enemy with a bunch of burdens? Let me make it clear, I don't handle the "actions" part of the robin; I'm only responsible for thinking, not doing.]
Miss Note: [Wait, please, one person must stay behind to help me protect Miss Robin. I know this is a very unreasonable request, but I'm willing to give my life for it—]
Saber: [A victory won through coercion is a great disgrace to a warrior. Since Miss Robin is our ally, protecting her safety is our duty.]
Xing*volunteered*: 【I'll stay.】
Saber *shakes head*: [As a Master, your resistance to magic is far lower than ours. If you are attacked and forced to leave the field by Greedy, I will also disappear, which is clearly what the enemy wants.]
Star: [Then let Archer stay.]
Archer *Refuses*: [Sorry, little girl, I won't take your orders. My Master is currently missing, so there's no reason for me to stay here and look after this child who's been torn to pieces.]
Star*helplessly*: [Then we'll just have to let Saber stay.]
Saber nodded: "This is indeed the best solution right now. Archer, please protect the Trail Blazers; this is my request as their opponent."
Archer (arms crossed): [Hmph, don't have too much faith in me.]
Saber: [I've always had a lot of faith in my friends—Master, best of luck.]
Archer: [Then, let the knights stay here to protect the princess, and we'll go and reap the lives of the enemies.]
