What's with 'can't live for a year'?
Eliya, who was sitting on the sofa, happily and shyly chatting with the group, suddenly saw Tang Hao's message. Her expression changed, and her eyes went blank for a moment.
Illya Alarm Clock: "That, why can't she live for a year?"
Da Bendan: "Because she is a cyborg. Although she is also a normal human, she has received a lot of illegal magic modifications at the beginning of her birth, and adjusted to be a magician that completely corresponds to the Holy Grail War. Simply put, her body structure has been replaced by components that are not human at all. From the moment she was born, her lifespan and use have been limited. Now, she only has one year of life left at most."
Illya Alarm Clock: "This … Why do you do this?"
Dr. Roman: "Because this is the world of magicians."
Roman, who was sitting in front of the computer, could not help but sigh. Tang Hao's words reminded him of Mashu. Mashu was also a cyborg, a test tube baby. From the moment she was born, she had received all kinds of adaptations of spirit particles. Currently, she was sixteen years old, and she only had one year left to live.
If this kind of inhumane human body modification was announced in a normal society, it would definitely be nailed to the pillar of shame. The laws of various countries would not allow this kind of experiment to exist, but … in the world of magicians, this was a very common thing. For most magicians, the only goal of living was to reach the root. Family, love, and morality were all things that could be abandoned, let alone a mere human experiment.
Using cyborgs as consumables was actually relatively merciful. What's more, they would ignore the secrecy and launch attacks on ordinary people, causing the sacrifice of dozens, hundreds, or even a village or a town, and declare it as a natural disaster to the outside world.
Roman didn't like this kind of thing either, but he couldn't interfere, because magicians were such a twisted group. It was arrogant to try to change the values of a group with one's own strength and preferences.
Roman understood the darkness and distortion of the magician society, but Illya did not understand. She could not understand something like this just for the victory of the Holy Grail War … Speaking of which, what was the Holy Grail War? Although she had heard some before, she still did not have a clear idea.
Illya Alarm Clock: "That … Can you tell me in detail? About … that Ilya?
Ilya was a little hesitant as she typed those words. Her instincts told her that she shouldn't get involved with such things, and even the ruby was reminding her that there would be many unpredictable consequences if she interacted directly with her parallel world self. But in the end, Ilya still sent those words.
Because he already knew.
Knowing that his other self in the other world only had less than a year left to live, and knowing that his other self as a magician would encounter such a fate, he could no longer pretend that he didn't know. In the end, this wasn't completely unrelated to her. After becoming a magical girl, she would often experience some strange phenomena. For example, she would suddenly lose consciousness in battle, and when she woke up, she would find that everything was over … Perhaps she could find the answer from this.
Da Bendan: Really? You want to know?
Tang Hao found a chair in the park and sat down. Although he had only wanted to ask Yu Ji for help, he had now changed his mind. Compared to Yu Ji, perhaps … Magical Girl Illya was more suitable.
The Illya of the FSN world never had hope and light, only a future where everything was set in stone, almost unbreakable like fate. On the other hand, the Illya of the Moria world was different. She lived in an environment that was carefully cared for, and did not feel the slightest bit of cruelty or despair. If the former was a marionette in the darkness, the latter was a natural baby in the sunlight.
Although in terms of ability, the Illya of the FSN world was definitely stronger. After all, the dark side was three times stronger, and the white side was three times weaker. But according to the unchanging plot of the anime world — two similar people, one who grew up in the darkness and advanced with hatred, and the other who grew up in the light and advanced with hope, the end result was never that the former dyed the latter black, but that the latter's light illuminated the former's darkness!
So, if the Illya of the two worlds were to meet, there might be some kind of strange chemical reaction.
Of course, the Holy Grail War was still very dangerous, so he could not force it. So, whether Illya wanted to come or not, it was up to her to decide after listening.
Da Bendan: Then, let's start from the beginning, the Holy Grail — —
…
"Hah." After returning home from school, the moment he stepped into the courtyard, Rin Enaka could not help but sigh. "I still haven't found anything today. The Holy Grail War has already begun, but it's more peaceful than I imagined. Instead, it's more difficult to deal with that brat … Ahhh ~ ~ ~!"
With a sigh, Rin Enaka pushed open the front door, and instantly, his eyebrows were almost knitted into a line.
"You bastard, how dare you come back so shamelessly! And you even treat this place like your own home … You do whatever you want … "Rin Enaka walked up to him and casually threw the book on the sofa. Just as he was cursing, he suddenly saw the delicious food on the table, and his voice became weaker and weaker. He subconsciously touched his stomach, and his hunger seemed to be surging up.
"Wuuu — —" Rin Enaka furrowed his brows and glared at Tang Hao at the dining table. For a moment, he was a little hesitant, not knowing if he should kick him out, or eat first before kicking him out.
"Did you … make all of this?"
"I had nothing to do, so I found something to do. Oh, by the way, Wei-Na helped too," Tang Hao said with a smile.
Rin Enaka was taken aback, but soon, she frowned and said in a low voice, "The game of family wine is over."
"Of course, but don't we have a promise between us?" Tang Hao smiled, "You promised me that you would bring me to the Holy Church to see Father Yan Feng."
'Ah, there's such a promise. I almost forgot about it.'
Rin Enaka turned her head away awkwardly, then sighed, "Fine, this is what I promised you, and I will do it. But what happens after that? What do you plan to do after meeting Father Yan Feng? "
"You are not a participant in the Holy Grail War, and there is no need for you to wade into this muddy water. Although I don't know why you took such a big risk and tried to barge in, it won't do you much good, and you might even die. Or … do you also desire the Holy Grail that can grant any wish?"
"Indeed, Father Yan Feng is a participant in this Holy Grail War. Since the seven masters have not all gathered yet, there is indeed a possibility that you can replace him, but …" Rin Enaka stared at Tang Hao, and her eyes gradually became sharp. "If you really become a participant in the Holy Grail War, then you will be my enemy, and I will not show mercy to my enemies!"
Tang Liang said, "Is this what you mean by caring about me?"
"Huh?" Rin Enaka's jaw dropped, and she slammed her hands on the table. "Are you kidding me?! Not only did you break into my house without permission, but you also made up such a clumsy lie to deceive me … to confuse me, and even to extract information from me … Not only are you despicable, but you are also sinister and cunning. I haven't even settled the score with you, so why would I care about you?! Even if you think too highly of yourself, there should be a limit! "
"I think you are too agitated. Calm down." Tang Hao waved his hand, gesturing for her to sit down.
"I am very calm … Hmph!" Rin Enaka sat down angrily, her face red. She then cupped her chin with one hand and said no more.
Although Tang Hao lied to her and made her angry when she found out the truth, when she thought about it carefully, she did not lose anything. The information that Tang Hao extracted from her was not a big deal, and it was not even as useful as Kuchulin's real name. Moreover, although her husband and daughter from the future were fake, at least she could feel that they did not mean her any harm, so she did not want to become enemies with them.
Tang Hao sat down opposite her. "In short, I can guarantee that I have no interest in the Holy Grail. Secondly, I will not become your enemy. Are you satisfied with this? "
"Then what is your purpose?"
"Hmm …" Tang Hao thought for a while, placed his hands on the table, and held his chin. He frowned and thought for a long time, then fixed his eyes on Rin Enaka. His eyes were as sharp as a detective's, and he said seriously, "I want to find out the truth of this world!"
Rin Enaka was speechless.
Did he think she was an idiot?!
…
In fact, Tang Hao's answer was not a lie. He really wanted to find out why he came to this world, and the reason for the timeline's chaos, so it was not a problem to say that he wanted to find out the truth of this world. However, it was common knowledge that the truth was often harder to be believed than a lie. Moreover, Tang Hao had a criminal record, so Rin Enaka did not believe his "bullshit".
However, at seven o 'clock that night, Rin Enaka kept his promise and brought Tang Hao to the Holy Church.
As for the Yin-Yang Sword, he was left at the Enaka Mansion. After all, the Holy Grail War had begun, and it was easy to be ambushed if he went out at night.
After making all the necessary preparations, Rin Tokusaka led Tang Hao out of the house.
At the same time, in the dense forest in the suburbs of Fuyuki, a castle had appeared out of nowhere. It was Einz Behren Castle. Through magic transfer, this castle that was originally located in Germany was completely moved to Fuyuki, Japan.
Transferring the flow of power was the magic that Einz Behren was best at. Of course, it was not only physical things that could be moved, but also conceptual things such as souls and consciousness.
"Then, let's begin —"
Standing in the castle, the girl who looked like a snow fairy revealed a smile as beautiful as an angel, but as cruel as a demon. "The hunt for the Holy Grail War has begun. First … let's start with the Enaka Family of the Gozo Family."
