Book 2: Chapter 2: Chen Heng’s Servant Status Screen
17-Year-Old Beautiful Young Lady: This is simply starting with the final boss battle! By the way, He Who Knows Fate, why didn’t you just end them there? Is it because you did not want to deprive Chaldea’s group of an opportunity to gain experience?
“That is one consideration, but more importantly, I was weakened. The power of my ability was significantly weaker. Furthermore, the energy drain was severe. I might not be able to defeat those Servants.
Chen Heng answered Yakumo Yukari’s question, which popped up on a screen, as he flew in the sky.
“I think it is because of this Servant body.”
Queen of Ice and Snow: It should be because of the Servant body. Servants are weakened Heroic Spirits that a Holy Grail summoned. They possess only a small portion of the Heroic Spirit’s strength. Furthermore, their abilities might be reduced due to rank limitations. It is not strange that this happened.
[TL Note: Here is more information on Holy Grails and Heroic Spirits: /wiki/Holy_Grail and /wiki/Heroic_Spirit.]
Magus of Flowers: You can check your Servant status screen to see how badly your ability was weakened.
“Sure. I’ll take a look at the Servant status screen first,” Chen Heng said as he maintained flight and split some attention to the Servant status screen that he had just noticed.

After Chen Heng saw the status screen, he found it terrible. He could be considered a magic user, relying on his Will Energy—or rather, mana—to support him. This resulted in an epic weakening.
According to the Servant status screen, Chen Heng’s Mana was graded A. While it said his mana was weakened, he estimated it was more than significantly weakened.
Initially, Chen Heng could pull down a moon or change its trajectory. Just based on that, his mana should be graded EX. In the end, it was significantly weakened. This practically crippled Chen Heng.
There was also the EX grade Noble Phantasm, Justice from Heaven. If his mana was full, he should be able to use it twice. Furthermore, the size of the meteor pulled down was uncertain. Of course, Chen Heng would not want to use it even if he could use it multiple times.
Actually, Justice from Heaven was not the ability derived from attraction that Chen Heng used the most. Furthermore, he was not very adept at it. The first time he used it was in Under One Person’s world. He did it then because there were no powerhouses to stop it. He had wanted to try out its might, and it turned out awesome. However, pulling down a meteorite from space was exhausting and not worth it. It took a long time and did not discriminate between targets. With that time, he could have already used his abilities to kill his enemies.
Chen Heng felt that Alaya listed Justice from Heaven as his Noble Phantasm purely because he had nothing else that could be used. After all, which Heroic Spirit did not have a Noble Phantasm?
As for the earlier situation, he said he might not be able to win because the enemy Servants also had Noble Phantasms. That thing was not very scientific. However, the concept of Servants was not scientific in the first place.
He found this situation somewhat frustrating; he might as well have come with his true body.
Initially, Chen Heng planned on acting behind the scenes. If there were a need to deal with Fafnir, he would show up. Now, it looked like he had to find Chaldea’s group quickly. That way, there would be someone to provide him with mana.
Chen Heng had already offended all the Servants from the opposing faction. Now, he felt he had a death flag on him. If he could not maintain sufficient mana, he would be burned to death once discovered.
“I verified it. It is indeed because of the Servant body. I just checked the status screen. Right now, my Will Power—that is, my mana—has been weakened to A. Previously, pulling down a meteor, possibly even a meteor shower, was easy. Now, just pulling one down will use half my mana.”
Umaru-chan: How strong! Pulling down a meteor shower? It turns out He Who Knows Fate is so strong.
Magus of Flowers: You will indeed be weakened after being summoned as a Servant. The question is just by how much. If your true body can actually casually pull down a meteor shower, it will be significantly weakened. Alaya will not permit such destructive powers to appear.
“It was Alaya who called me here in the first place. The meteor I was talking about would just be about the size of a head. If it were one of the larger ones, I could only pull one down at a time.”
Queen of Ice and Snow: Then, you will definitely be weakened.
“However, it’s still alright. At least Alaya gave me a grade A Dragonslayer. That will make it much easier to deal with Fafnir.”
17-Year-Old Beautiful Young Lady: I think Alaya’s intent is for you to focus on the evil dragon Fafnir. He does not want you to bother with anything else. I played FGO before. Starting from the 1st Singularity, Chaldea’s group would meet with increasingly stronger enemies. The 1st Singularity is a normal setting, an excellent chance to gain experience. After all, Alaya can’t keep calling for reinforcements for every Singularity, right?
“However, I don’t plan on spoiling the storyline or interfering much. Never mind, never mind. I’ll find a place to land first. Half my mana is gone after flying for so long. It is still night. I’ll find a cave or something to spend the night. I feel that Chaldea’s group should be arriving soon. I must ensure that that group of furious Servants cannot capture me before that.”
Chen Heng searched from the sky, wanting to find a hidden place to rest for the night. Eventually, he chose a small forest.
There, he took out a tent from his spatial storage and pitched it. Now, he did not worry about being caught by those Servants, as he had flown for quite a while. Furthermore, he had flown very quickly and even taken a circuitous route, changing his initial course.
“Alright, alright. I’m going to stop the livestream. It was past ten when I came. After exhausting myself, I do feel like sleeping.”
