Book 5: Chapter 46:2: Re:Lifer Tohsaka Rin, Part 2

“Do you have to get so worked up? Isn’t it normal for a Master to have a Command Spell? While in the role of a Servant, I’ll have a strong resistance to Command Spells as an association member. Although I cannot completely ignore them, it would take three Command Spells to compel me to do something. Of course, I trust Sirin won’t misuse it.”

“So, what exactly is a Command Spell, and what are Masters and Servants?” Still confused, Sirin felt left out, as she could not understand what the two were talking about.

Mo Qingtong would sneer if she knew Sirin’s thoughts. You are already the Master and have three Command Spells. What is there to be dissatisfied with? Even if the Command Spells might not be very effective, they should still work for some small requests.

Furthermore, if Mo Qingtong recalled right, the priest named Kotomine Risei had countless Command Spells.

[TL Note: Kotomine Risei serves as the overseer of the Third Holy Grail War and Fourth Holy Grail War of Fate/Zero. Here is more information about him: /wiki/Risei_Kotomine.]

“To put it simply, the relationship between a Master and a Servant is a master-servant relationship. A Command Spell is like the Master’s absolute command over the Servant, and there are three chances of this. However, as Ah Heng said, the Command Spell probably wouldn’t have much control over him. Even using three together could not force him to do certain things, like committing suicide. The Command Spells are extremely important. They can compel the Heroic Spirit to retreat, so don’t squander them.”

Mo Qingtong did her best to explain the Command Spells while emphasizing how they helped a Servant, trying to divert Sirin from the compulsion aspect of it.

“So, a Master can issue three absolute commands to a Servant, no matter what the commands are?”

Chen Heng noticed a shift in Sirin’s gaze once she understood the meaning of Master, Servant, and Command Spells. It was akin to a predator eyeing prey. Wait, prey?

“What’s with that look, Sirin? You should know the Command Spell isn’t to be trifled with. As an association member, I’m highly resistant to it. I hope you’re not planning any peculiar pranks. If you dare, I’ll spank you when we return!”Read latest chapters at nov(e)lbin.com Only

Assuming Sirin might use the Command Spell for mischief, Chen Heng gave her a light warning but did not dwell on it any further.

Honestly speaking, Mo Qingtong suspected that Luo Li was actually the true main character. She alone had everything: a system, a chat group, and even a powerful time ability.

Mo Qingtong had read the novel Re:Life Chat Group, gifted to her and Luo Li by Chen Heng during their vacation. I am supposed to be the main character, so why are all the best things happening to Luo Li? This left Mo Qingtong utterly bewildered.

“Alright, Qingtong, Elder Sister Raven, I’m about to start the mission with Sirin.” After giving Sirin a brief overview of the concepts of Master, Servant, and Command Spell, Chen Heng announced their departure.

He didn’t worry about the mission’s success—it was highly likely they’d succeed.

Chen Heng, Yakumo Yukari, and Doctor Roman’s primary concern was summoning Merlin, not the mission.

Not that Chen Heng looked down on the Type-Moon worlds’ combat prowess. However, Servants were merely that, not the real deal, and their strength was limited.

As an association member, even as a Servant, Chen Heng’s abilities would barely be diminished.

Plus, he had Yakumo Yukari—an experienced being who had lived for thousands of years. He felt assured with her at the helm; practically nothing could go wrong.

Actually, Doctor Roman’s participation surprised Chen Heng, as he had expected Skadi.

“You’re leaving already?” Mo Qingtong said in surprise. She knew Chen Heng would depart soon but hadn’t anticipated it happening immediately.

“The main reason for this mission isn’t that small amount of points. I aim to summon someone from our association group to give him a sound thrashing. Finding a suitable world for summoning hasn’t been an easy task, as he could be considered a Heroic Spirit.”
