Inside Wang Chong's private room, Wang Chong was confronting the newly summoned Heroic Spirit.
Semiramis, the Assyrian Empress, the first poisoner in the history of the Type-Moon World. In the original Fate/Apocrypha timeline, she was summoned as both an Assassin and a Caster, possessing both class skills. And now, she had been summoned as a Caster by his summon card.
However, it was not difficult to tell from her titles what kind of troublesome individual he had summoned. Such infamous Heroic Spirits all shared a common trait: if their compatibility with their Master was good, it was fine, but if it wasn't, they would not hesitate to backstab their Master at the slightest misstep.
Even with Command Spells as a restraint, an open attack is easy to dodge, but a hidden one is hard to guard against. If they caused trouble during a battle, an ordinary Master might not even know how they died. For example, in the original timeline of this Fourth Holy Grail War, a certain elegant magus was backstabbed to death.
Clearly, Wang Chong needed to nip this in the bud.
"Caster, I believe the Holy Grail has already instilled the current situation and the knowledge of the Common World into your mind. You should also be aware of our respective positions. I am the Master, and you are the Servant. What? Do you intend to put on airs as a queen for me?" After speaking, Wang Chong fully displayed his strength. Ruinous Power surged forth, directly enveloping Semiramis. At the same time, the small Medusa, Stheno, and Euryale also appeared around Wang Chong, releasing their own power.
To make such arrogant individuals submit, one must use powerful strength to shatter their arrogant hearts. The one with the bigger fist is always right; this is an eternal law. Even the Assyrian Empress, before her rise in history, could only bide her time and endure in the face of overwhelming power.
Moreover, Wang Chong knew that Semiramis was a clever person. After realizing the current situation, whether she was sincere or merely acting, she had to lower her proud head, acknowledge her identity as a Servant, and yield to him.
"To be able to simultaneously sustain the magical energy of three Heroic Spirits... no, four if you count me. And the power he himself exhibits, even if I were to personally descend in my original form, I would be wary." This was Semiramis's profound feeling after seeing this scene and sensing the black mist containing immense power. Logically speaking, Servants summoned in a Holy Grail War are generally far stronger than their Masters, but this situation was too bizarre. The Master himself was already equivalent to a top-tier Heroic Spirit, so why would he even summon a Servant like her?
As for the three Heroic Spirits beside him, Semiramis could feel that the intensity of the divinity emanating from them was far greater than her own. These were the existences of gods who had been demoted into Heroic Spirits, who should not have been summoned at all. Even on the man himself, she could sense a faint trace of divine aura. Could he also be a demigod like her? If so, with such a rank and such power, he would naturally earn Semiramis's recognition.
"Please forgive my short-sightedness, esteemed Master. Your strength is beyond doubt; even if I were to personally descend, I would treat you as a honored guest." Semiramis very shrewdly retracted her aura and bowed slightly to Wang Chong in apology. Towards ordinary people, even excellent magi, Semiramis would not show a good face. But if the other party was a demigod of equal rank, and also possessed the ability to have true gods demoted to accompany him, then that was another matter entirely.
Seeing her yield, Wang Chong also retracted his oppressive aura, and the three goddesses beside him naturally returned to calm. However, Wang Chong did not withdraw his black mist; instead, he allowed the black mist to linger around Semiramis.
"I like smart people, because it saves me a lot of unnecessary talk." Wang Chong pointed to his black mist, then said, "This power of black mist will not only make your strength even greater than it is now, but it will also become your continuous supply of magical energy, allowing you to maintain your presence in the current world, and even act independently."
"Accept this gift, and you will become my collaborator," Wang Chong said indifferently.
"Such good power... it can't possibly come without a price, can it?" Semiramis narrowed her eyes, saying.
"Your power is strong, but also troublesome. I do need a Caster who can create a good territory to guard my rear, but I need a trustworthy companion even more to help me guard my rear. Do you understand what I mean?"
As Wang Chong spoke, he raised his hand, and the Command Spells on it began to glow. Wang Chong did not use the power of the Command Spells to make Semiramis accept the Ruinous Power, but if Semiramis chose not to accept, he would naturally use the Command Spells to erase her.
Semiramis naturally understood this intention, but she hadn't expected that, facing an excellent Servant like herself, he would rather erase her simply because of a lack of trust. This couldn't help but make the proud Empress feel a little indignant. But it had to be said, it had been a long time since such an interesting existence had brought her such a different feeling.
The Empress developed a strong interest in this Master. She was very much looking forward to what kind of astonishing and outrageous things this powerful Master would do. Since he had stirred a ripple in her long-dormant heart, Semiramis then used actual action, reaching out to touch the black mist in front of her, to express her will: "Alright, I accept."
"Most Servants who answer the Holy Grail's call have a wish they want to fulfill in their hearts. Semiramis, I will ensure you won't regret the choice you make today. Open your mind and body, and let this power completely fill your being." Wang Chong commanded the black mist, continuously pouring it into Semiramis's body.
Semiramis naturally followed his instructions, opening her mind and body. She could feel a rich power, no less than magical energy, continuously infusing her body and permeating her soul. However, because she did not resist throughout the process, there was not much pain; instead, it gave Semiramis a sense of lightness and fullness, as if she had come back to life, her soul never having felt so good. It was as if she had truly been resurrected and descended into the present world.
"What a wonderful power… But what price am I paying for it? Is it my soul that is being tainted? Yet, I don't feel my soul is too bound… Forget it, since I've already made the choice, let me see everything that happens next. Will it truly be as the other party said, that I won't regret it?" Semiramis felt the transformation this power brought upon her, her thoughts drifting for a moment before she immersed herself in this power.
And Wang Chong, naturally, also used the Ruinous Power to subtly lock Semiramis's trust and loyalty towards him at a very high level.
"Ding—You have subdued the Assyrian Empress Semiramis, successfully plundering beauty, rewarding Villain Points: 300 points. Current Villain Points: 6000 points," the System prompted.
"Hmm? System, why is it that subduing a Heroic Spirit, the Empress Semiramis alone, also gives 300 points? Logically, shouldn't it be 100 points per person, just like the three goddesses?" Wang Chong felt a bit strange, so he asked.
"This is due to the different methods the Host employed to subdue them. Previously, with the Gorgon Sisters, the Host purely used overbearing Ruinous Power to forcefully subdue them, plus the power source constructing the three sisters was originally Ruinous Power, so they naturally had a good impression of you. The method was too simple, and the difficulty was weaker, so naturally the points weren't high."
"Conversely, the Assyrian Empress and you initially had incompatible natures. The Host first demonstrated powerful strength to gain her recognition, and then struck while the iron was hot, using words to pique her interest in you, causing her to actively open her mind and body for the Host to subdue her with Ruinous Power. In terms of difficulty, it was harder, and in terms of method, it was more skillful, so naturally the Villain Points are higher," the System explained.
"I understand. So, any villainous act actually has a certain evaluation standard behind it. The more brainless, the less interesting a villainous act, the fewer points it gets. Conversely, the higher the evaluation, right?" Wang Chong inquired.
"Exactly like that~"
"I didn't expect that because of my caution, I didn't adopt the previous method of forced domination, but instead learned how to increase Villain Points. System, you're a bit underhanded about this. You should have told me about this earlier," Wang Chong said.
