Type-Moon Simulation: Starting with Conquering a Greek Goddess!-Chapter 387: Short-Sighted People of the Past

Marie entered the palace and became a student by Moran's side.

Although her status was not as high as Rin and Sakura, who were direct disciples of Moran, she enjoyed the same treatment as the two girls.

In Moran's eyes, status was merely a name card.

For someone already at the pinnacle of power in Britain, status didn't really matter.

In any case, the news of Marie becoming a court student quickly spread; such matters could not be hidden in the Clock Tower.

When the monarchs learned of it, they each had different attitudes.

Many were astonished by the boldness of the Animusphere family, actually sending out the heir of the family head.

It was clear to anyone with eyes.

The Animusphere family publicly held a stance of aristocracy, but their direction had already tilted towards supporting the king.

The primary interests of their family in the future would no longer be the Clock Tower, but rather aligned with the royal family. Of course, this would not affect the relationship between the Animusphere family and other magical families.

Other magical families could not even establish a relationship with the royal family.

The remaining eleven families, upon seeing Marisbury's move of sending his daughter, also had many thoughts.

However, for Moran, this was something to worry about later.

The reform of the Clock Tower was progressing slowly.

Led by Moran, the decision to assist modern magecraft with Britain's national strength was directly passed in the parliament.

The cabinet meeting was merely formalism.

They were only responsible for existing as an institution to facilitate the operation of the country when Britain had not elected a king.

Once Britain elected a king.

Then the cabinet members would have to devote themselves entirely to the king, and at that time, the entire cabinet would basically become a tool for governance, absolutely obeying the king's orders and policies.

This is the system that Britain has forged over thousands of years.

When this system was first proposed, it did not go smoothly; it was gradually shaped through blood and fire.

Inside, there is the sweat and effort of the kings throughout the ages.

Moran was also moved by this.

Even if Britain has sent away its first king, it continues to coexist and move forward with people in its own way.

A nation that was destined to perish has survived to this day.

How could this not make Moran feel emotional?

However, Britain's ability to do this is largely due to Moran's contributions.

He unified the nations and cultures of Great Britain and maintained a stable rule for over a hundred years.

Britain is the last brilliance of the divine age.

This brilliance has not yet extinguished.

A thin porcelain cup is filled with steaming amber liquid, and then a cup is gently placed on the table.

Marie holds the plate with both hands, her face full of anticipation.

Like a little bird waiting for praise and a gentle touch, her proud yet humble appearance is quite touching.

"Marie, there are two months left until the Holy Grail War in Snowfield City. What are your thoughts?"

Moran holds a stack of intelligence summaries.

He utilized Britain's intelligence agency to gather information about the Holy Grail War in Snowfield City. It must be said that intelligence collected at the national level is indeed much more effective.

The military intelligence agency was directly called upon by him.

It was used to investigate various intelligence from both the mysterious and the surface sides, with the Holy Grail War in Snowfield City set as the highest priority.

The military intelligence agency is known in the West as the "founding ancestor" of world intelligence agencies and is also one of the most efficient intelligence organizations in the world.

It is one of the four major intelligence agencies in the world.

Of course, this military intelligence agency is quite different from the one in the original world line.

They are an organization established as part of the surface society.

However, they have extensively integrated mysterious powers from the divine age, embodying the wisdom of military organization.

Whether in technology or magecraft, they have involvement.

Everything that can be used is armed.

In terms of intelligence-gathering capabilities, there are few organizations in the world more efficient than the military intelligence agency.

Not to mention, they also utilized the divine age technology of Britain, fundamentally preventing infiltration and imitation by other countries.

This also has significant drawbacks.

The divine age technology of Britain is too unique. This leads to poor concealment, making it easily recognizable at a glance.

This is inadequate for organizations hidden in the dark.

As the first king, Moran planted a great tree for Britain, and later generations pruned and trimmed this giant tree.

In the past, it was always the later generations who enjoyed its shade.

Now, it is Moran's turn to enjoy the shade of the later generations.

"... The Holy Grail War of Snowfield.

Hmph, that is merely a ceremony held by a historically shallow nation, a poor imitation created by barbarians through plunder and blood."

Marie said, tossing her silver hair.

Her words were full of disdain for this Holy Grail War.

She was not targeting the Holy Grail War itself.

Rather, she was targeting the ugly nation that hosted the Holy Grail War.

"It's just a white-eyed wolf that ran away from our country a hundred years ago, a shortsighted person who betrayed us, the divine Britain.

The Nazis took the foundation of the Third Magic Great Holy Grail from Fuyuki City, and then the United States continued to shed blood on top of that. In the war leading to the Nazis' demise, it was taken again."

Marie recounted the history she knew since.

In her view, this was the arrogance of ignorant mortals manipulating noble things they could not control.

"... Shortsighted people."

Moran took a sip of red tea.

The historical trajectory after the unification of Britain was roughly similar to the original.

However, there were many changes in the details.

For example, Britain's customs became more exclusionary, and the scale of colonial expansion became smaller; the ugly nation was born during that time.

From the history Moran could review.

At that time, Britain was still divided into radicals and conservatives. One side believed that Britain should rely on the great power of the divine age to become the world's hegemon, while the other side believed that it should adhere to ancestral teachings to stabilize the divine age of Britain.

At that time, Britain was just like it is now.

For decades, no king had been chosen, which led to endless debates between the two factions.

Britain, as the last land of the divine age, was arrogant.

Later generations thus gave rise to many adverse consequences.

Fortunately, when the flames of war began to rise, Britain welcomed its island king.

The king made a judgment for both factions.

The outcome goes without saying; the king chose to stabilize the divine age of Britain and reduce interference with foreign countries and the world.

However, this also led to another outcome.
