... Well I for one look forward to the generous administration of our new Grail-Kun, Matthew-Sama.
That just means Hero Creation Kits have a bit more in them than the old ones, which are still perfectly fine. After all, Gil approves of them!
Camelot was always going to be Camelot, the real question is how closely of the God-King of Storms holds to their Instrumentality plan.
Well alright then that happened, and I have to say there's going to be some interesting conversations after this!
On a different note Matthew from what I'm getting turned into a sexy mature white-haired version of himself so I have to ask did Cu experience some very badly timed arousal seeing Matthew like this?

I don't know about anyone else, but I imagined "One-Winged Angel" playing through most of that.
I actually played Nanatsu No Taizai OST Hendrickson Meliodas vs Drole and Gloxinia Theme during some of it but yeah that could fit as well though granted I'm not sure either song quite fully fits.

He's just cribbing a line for how much suffering he wants to inflict, is all.
The gifts are less poisoned, and he's still very much on Chaldea's side - for a given measure of sides. He's on love's side, for better and worse! Eros, storge, etc.
As for the last bit: critical spoilerage. I can't even hint about it at the moment.
This is the correct response.

Well. Given he is a little concerned about the casual war crimes going on, there's not much room for that. Like even Medb would take a think before biochemical warfare, such as she is. The 'Celenike dying myriad deaths' bit does not help.
So definitely more concern for Matthew and what humanity/morality he has and what the aftereffects will look like.
Nnnot the case. This is not Angra. However, his Name does start with an 'A'. Matthew is his chosen name, but the Name given by the World is different. I have left a string of hints as to what it is.
Also still very much a fairy and the inheritor of a title along the lines of 'Avalon le Fae' in terms of his role.

So as somebody who is still fairly clueless about the deeper Nasu lore, what are the main take-aways here aside from the wannabe-Aphrodite poking what shouldn't be poked and unleashed Matthew's superpowered evil side?

Matthew's spirit was at The least from what I could tell a beast canidate class threat like kama-mara. As well as the fact morgause or a similar creature may well have been within matthew at one point.

The main things I brought out in this chapter:
1. Patroclus has access to Akhilleus Kosmos, his Shield NP that can counter Karna's turbo-nuke (once) and the reason Achilles qualifies for Shielder. I also outright named his class as Pretender. Stat sheet incoming eventually!
2. Heracles is revealed to be Saber, with Marmyadose at his side. He is not, however, Grand Saber. Marmyadose being the sword passed down to Artoria and the reason she could loan out Excalibur in myth because she had a blade with even more readily available firepower. Again, eventual stat sheet incoming!
3. Manaka superimposed the 'idea' of the demons the Ars Goetia were based on onto Solomon's Familiar constructs. This has created conflicting impulses and given a measure of free will to those governing sub-sections of the Time Temple. Ergo, Forneus read the tea leaves and got out of dodge. The real demons don't exist (anymore) so the names are free real estate.
4. I heavily implied the original spirit that was summoned into Matthew has deep connections to Morgause, aka PHH Morgan in this fic. It is in fact, something that could be called an inheritor of hers. There was a previously-established curse which ripped them out of Matthew, leaving Morgan to pour as much fairy juice in as possible to fill the gap. INaRM Morgan has reasons for being sentimental both to said spirit and to Matthew.
5. The Hydra is on the Good Shit, and kept Orion locked down due to him having a conceptual poison weakness. By the time he had freedom to move, Matthew had gone Off the Rails. As a counterpoint, Heracles had bonuses against the Hydra for killing it in the first place and having a magma sword. Likewise, Illya's Sitonai component and having a canine companion version of Shiro out added even more plus modifiers. Combining forces turned it into a conceptual cakewalk.
6. I implied both Matthew's Fairy Name and his Title. Letters are missing obviously, but I did write them out. Like how Artoria and Morgan were both Avalon le Fae, the two concepts are separate. People who know me/have followed the breadcrumbs I laid down will probably see where I am going.
7. This one is slightly subtle, but Matthew's skewed form awoke Sefer Raziel HaMalakh. What I mean is he's in a form that leans more towards his less humane impulses, but is no more or less true than the person we've come to know over the course of the fic. The 'real' Matthew is somewhere in the middle. So back to the book, Kunapipi said it would take an equal and opposite force to get the tome to work. One has to consider the themes of Sefer Raziel Hamalakh in order to theorize what that means for this form of Matthew.

1: Called it. The Pretender bit, anyway, and I know I wasn't alone in that.
2: Figured he was a Saber. Dunno why I blanked on ever considering Marmyadose.
3: Good Shit, love it when a villain actually uses their brain.
4: I wish I knew enough to decipher who Morgause's inheritor could be. Or at least where to start looking.
5: Honestly, yeah, this was the best part of the chapter for me, getting to see Herc and Illya team up.
6: So assuming the spaces equal the number of missing letters it's (Five letter name starting with A), inheritor of Morgan, (Six letter word starting with L and ending in N) (Five letter word starting with S and ending with E). Time to follow the breadcrumbs.
7: ....Don't Hug Me, I'm Scared now. I noticed SRH awakening with this new form. And it *scares me*.

oh dear.
This is concering and will need much exposition to process.
i take it your version of the twin servants don't share their traits between the bodies depending on who's in charge?
aka Castor doesn't have the benefitr of Twin God's essence (which should act as divinity) to bypass achilles's skin's weakness to servants with divinity, while his sister dows?
yay Achilles battle fetish!!
confused by the grammar
was mash hearing/understanding Fou here? like universal language?
great use of putting the new voice on the opposite side of the text box - really added to the creepy! *applauds*

So the Dioscuri were at well below capacity in this fight. It would have been way more even if they weren't. Aphrodite had to essentially mind-blank them in order to suborn them, and that did neither of them any favors.
I tweaked it to be more clear, thanks for the feedback!
Yes, she understood Fou. Or Fou made himself understood. I'll let the reader decide which
The new voice is still Matthew, but something closer to his unbridled id. Which, given how he acts on a daily basis, should say a lot.
I think i have an idea on the back 2 names already - could someone explain how to apply a spoiler box?
Edit: found it!

Here you go. Can't think of a being connected to Morgan with a five-letter name that starts with A, other than Artur, a bastardization of you-know-who.
Which neatly counters the malus imposed by the fact that Hydra venom is what ended up killing him.

[ SPOILER="insert title between quotations"] Spoiler text goes here. Make sure to eliminate the spaces on the immediate insides of the brackets, or else it won't work. [ /SPOILER]

i'm a bit confused
or am i still misunderstanding it
so is Matthew both a arturia and the Leanan Sidhe
Leanan Sidhe, ('fairy lover') the irish fairy. i believe that's part of his true name, no clue on the first part unless it's something like 'Arise' instead of a name
that's my understanding, at least

Not the, an. As far as I'm aware, the Leanan Sidhe part of it is more title than Name, with a capital N.

Given Finagle put it out for all and sundry to see...
Yes, the title is 'Leanan Sidhe'. The fairy lover who granted inspiration in exchange for shortened lifespan.
As an obvious note, I've Nasu'd the actual history of such a thing. Given Matthew's proclivity for making codes that can double as art and his, ahem, proclivities, those were the breadcrumbs to that reveal. Obviously he isn't sapping life force for inspiration, and is more prone to making things himself than inspiring artists.
The proper reveal for that in-story will be in the Zero arc, which should give some implications to gnaw on.
EDIT: I'm not angry/disappointed/etc., was just justifying why I was making this post! Realized how the tone came off a few minutes after hitting save.

I get it I do it feels a bit rude when someone does that as well I would have never fu*king guessed it even with the sub bells hint and cerrunos being big and straight forward.
on a tangent note:
Does this mean the Dioscuri and jason might come to chaldea too? if so, which classes for each of them? Saber or rider for jason, saber or avenger for Gemini
