...Chapter 04: Zero Day – Saber of Red, Saber of Black, Lancer of Red, Lancer of Black....
(A/N: There will be no fight for the next two to three chapters, because the author is just looking to show the relationship of each Master and Servant couple who participate in this HGW, he said, where after it is finished, then a very routine battle will occur, so that most of the chapters may only be filled by fighting only. Hope you enjoy this chapter)
...\=-----\=-----\=-----\=-----\=...
In a certain area in Koja Subdistrict, North Jakarta.
There, it can be said that there is a bit of an uproar, because there is someone from abroad who is living somewhere, which is in the area.
In fact, not many people also came to the front of the residence of the stranger, just to take pictures with him.
Of course, the stranger who felt that, which was apparently Cornelia von Einzbern, he could only clench her tongue with annoyance, having instead gotten such unnecessary attention.
She does know, if her face is indeed very beautiful, it can even be said to be one of the most beautiful women in the world, but with things that are happening now, its popularity will only cause problems.
In addition, with this Servant who is very basket-eyed, because he really looks like a playboy, considering that the person continues to respond to the women outside their residence, adding to the situation is getting worse.
In addition, there are also annoying facts about the technology that has now become too advanced, so that a news can already very quickly spread throughout the World, in just a few seconds, it really made things worse.
"Saber, can you stop taking photos with the girls?" Cornelia tries to get him to stop, which seems misunderstood by the person concerned.
"Hehehe~ Are you jealous, Master? Cute once~"
Of course, hearing such an answer, Cornelia could not help but immediately put on a disgusted face expression, as she began to stare at Saber as if she were looking at the most miserable creature in the World.
It's just that, maybe because something had been behind his head, Saber was completely unaware of it, where the man had instead added something that was really, really, really, he shouldn't have done it.
"But take it easy, Master. No matter how many women come to me, you still remain the only one in my heart."
'Ahhh~ I really want to kill him.'
Despite having such thoughts, but for the sake of winning this war and obtaining the Holy Grail, Cornelia ended up only able to hold back the anger that was within her.
After all, disregarding this extremely disgusting nature, the Saber he had obtained really had extremely crazy parameters, let alone in his Endurance section.
In addition, with a Skill of his that can make Saber immune to all kinds of attacks, adding the strength of the defense of this Servant to a much higher level.
However, like things that usually exist in general, where there are strengths, there will certainly be weaknesses, this Skill also has a weakness.
Only, this weakness of his was really very difficult to conquer, considering that it was the soles of his feet, which Cornelia thought, if only a few Servants could destroy the defense of the Skill.
"Huh... Whatever, I don't care about it anymore."
After saying this, Cornelia then began to rise from her seat and walked away towards the exit, which Saber immediately stopped.
"Where do you want to go, Master? Let me accompany you. Because, it would be very problematic, if only you met another Master and Servant out there, without my presence."
However, having been too fed up with her attitude, Cornelia at first just stared at him with a very deadly course, before he glanced towards one of the three maids who followed him in this Holy Grail War.
"I just want to take a walk around the area to find the wind. So, please don't follow me, or I'll send you back there."
Hearing this, the three maids who were there immediately shuddered, because for them, being in this place was much better, than having to go back to that hell.
"This applies to you, too, Saber."
"Ehh!? Why!?" Saber could not help her surprise, because she did not expect to be rejected.
However, without giving an answer at all, Cornelia just kept walking away from there, which of course through the back door, just because the front door was still crowded by local residents.
'I hope there's something good in this town.' While thinking about it, Cornelia who had been wearing Magecraft disguise began to blend in with the people.
.....
....
...
On the balcony of a certain luxury house in Cengkareng District, West Jakarta.
Different, but it can be said almost the same, with the condition of Cornelia with her Saber, Vestia Zeta was experiencing the same thing with her Servant.
Only, the difference here was, while Saber of Black was in the position of Cornelia, on the other hand, Zeta was in the position of Saber of Red, instead, as someone who has just created a problem.
"Master, did an Agent really commit such a despicable act like this?"
"Nope-no. N-not so. I-I can explain."
However, since the tone of voice used by him was not so convincing, Saber of Black could only sigh in exhaustion.
After all, he did know and realized, that this Master was someone careless, but he still never expected, that the girl could be this reckless.
"To be honest, following a strange ritual and neglecting the tasks assigned by your own superiors, causes a large-scale problem for your own organization."
The more Saber read it, the more frustrated she was, because she finally realized, if the word "careless" alone could not even describe how careless this Master was.
"B-but it's not my fault... It's their fault! They just as casually continue to rule my life, as if I were just a tool for them to advance the organization they have."
Hearing these words, a sigh came out of his mouth, because in addition to realizing the things above, Saber was quite aware, too, if this Master's position within his organization is really very unfair at all.
After all, charging so many tasks to a young girl whose age alone had not even turned twenty yet, where he was not even allowed to form a group with other agents, and many more, the right things seemed to make his Master isolated within his organization.
"Okay, okay. I'll help you take care of these people."
"Ehh!? Really really!? I love you so much, Saber!!" The mood possessed by Zeta immediately changed by a hundred and eighty degrees, to the point of slightly making Saber think, if the previous one might just be a trick.
However, it was only his thought for a moment, as well as the joy felt by Zeta, because...
"But you also need to remember, if after this problem is finished, you need to learn to admit your own mistakes. Do you hear me, Master?"
However, just as her carelessness knew no bounds, at the time when the girl wanted to return a little bragging about herself, strangely and suddenly, she slipped instead, which was to make things worse, the girl fell towards Saber, which to make things worse, the two somehow fell from the second floor, where strangely ended up falling right in the pool.
*Byuuurr!*
Saber, who had initially tried to look at her Master with a hint of respect, a hint of respect soon disappeared without rest, when it was replaced by aggravation.
"Neh, neh, Master~ Do you know? If it's a cat, they're very susceptible to cold water."
"Who are you calling a cat!? I'm bu–" However, just like earlier, but this time the words from Zeta came to a halt, due to the temperature of the water in the pond that suddenly dropped so drastically, it caused half the body of the unfortunate agent to freeze.
Then, after venting his misery, with Zeta still visibly shocked by the recent events in the pool, Saber decided to take a little walk around the city.
.....
....
...
In a certain rice field in Kramat Jati District, East Jakarta.
Two men can be seen walking around very casually in the rice fields are not so broad, while accompanied by the morning sunlight that feels refreshing.
"This is very difficult to believe, if the area of West Java has been dominated by things like this, so that even green land really feels very small." The man who appeared to be wearing a simple batik outfit with black jeans, he immediately muttered that in shock, after he saw the thing that was in front of him.
The other person who was with him could only smile wryly, because... "You're right, Lancer. Although the development of technology has indeed proven to be very helpful to mankind, but it also has a very negative impact on them."
"Like less and less green land, right?"
"Yes, that's absolutely right. In fact, to be honest, I still remember, that two decades ago, there was still a lot of green land in this area. However, in just the last two decades, most of the green land has been turned into settlements, or even factories, that casually pollute the environment around here."
"I hope in the former area I'm leading won't be this bad."
"Hahaha, I hope so too."
The two of them then continued their walks in silence, while trying to enjoy the view from the rice field that was in front of them.
.....
....
...
Somewhere in Menteng District, Central Jakarta.
"Now, Master. Are you sure about this? It would really be very bad to know, leaving the girl alone there."
"Don't worry about him, Lancer. Because, there are some bodyguards of his that have accompanied him since the woman came to see me. So, there shouldn't be any trouble."
"Are you talking about these weird people who've been following us?"
"Yup, they're really very annoying."
Hearing such an answer from his Master, Lancer of Black could only sigh at him, as he felt a little complicated about it.
After all, at the time when this Master was wanting to accompany him on the streets around this city, suddenly appeared a strange girl, who claimed to be his lover.
However, the Master denied it and said that they no longer have any relationship, which seemed to make the girl hurt, and as a result of some things leading to another, the girl ended up crying, while her Master decided to leave her, without looking the slightest bit guilty.
"I don't know what happened between the two of you, but in my opinion, it's not like your actions have gone too far, Master?"
This time, Lancer could see such great hatred behind the eyes of this heterochromia Master, which surprised him a little, at the moment when his Master was starting to look at him.
"Do you know, Lancer? I've tried to fight for her, but she just as casually left and married someone else. And now, all of a sudden come back and say you want to get back to me? Do you think I'm just a toy that can be thrown away and taken away?"
Lancer really could not reply to the words of his Master, because he did not expect it to be this complicated.
"But wait a minute. You said he was married? Then, why is he asking for another return with you?"
"Okay, I don't know either. But for sure, no matter what he did, I still would never return with him again. Because..."
However, his words were stuck at the end, which seemed to have no problem with Lancer, probably because he realized, that it was something his Master did not want to talk about.
The two of them then continued their walk, until the sky began to turn orange.

Note Author:
Yayy!!! Update again!!
For the first, chapters like this will be two to three chapters, because the author only wants to give a slice of life picture of each Master and Servant.
Then, in this chapter the author decides to take four POVs from existing HGW participants, where perhaps in the next chapter it will still remain the same.
While the reason for why there is a long and short POV, it is only because the author feels, if their POV is not so important, the point is, anyway, some of the characters that will have a big role in this arc, will have a long POV.
Furthermore, the author wants to ask you all for advice, regarding Parameters, Class Skills, Personal Skills, and Nobla Phantasm, which will be owned by Jaka Telokan, if only the person becomes a Servant.
And lastly, the author just wants to say, if during the week, most likely the author will not update, because the author is losing the mood to write.
In addition, the author is also very busy with the affairs of the author in RL. But, that also does not mean there will be no chapters at all, if indeed the author has an intention and there is time, maybe the author will write and up, like this chapter.
That's what the author wants to say, and for those of you who want to support the author, you can treat the author on the author's tracter account that you can access through BIO IG author @Panagakos_Void.
See you in the next chapter! Adios~!
