The infinite sword system has been mastered, and you say this is the dragon clan?

Chapter 184: Night Food Source × Mirror World√
"Please sit down. You are welcome. You can sit anywhere. This is a community church. Usually no one comes to worship in the morning."

The morning light from the colorful windows flowed on the wooden benches in a honey-colored color. Uesugi Yue casually dusted off the dust on his apron and walked inside. Obviously, he had been working here part-time for many years and knew everything about the church, even the rules of visiting visitors. So he greeted a few people to sit down without any hesitation, as if this was his own living room.

Gen Chisei followed closely behind. His eyes quickly glanced at Emiya and paused for a moment, then glanced at the strange girl with light golden hair. His heart was filled with doubts:

How could her family feel at ease when a girl of such a young age ran out to hang out with men? Moreover, it seemed that Emiya had no relatives or children of Western descent.

"Tell us all about your situations." When Uesugi Yue saw several people sitting in a row, he stood in front of the altar. After taking off his apron, the old man's image suddenly became solemn. He really shed the characteristics of a ramen chef and looked like a serious priest who presided over the mass ceremony on weekdays.

Yuan Zhisheng nodded slightly in his seat. This was more appropriate.

Before he was adopted by Tachibana Masamune, he had fantasized countless times about his biological father suddenly appearing. His appearance varied, perhaps in thousands of ways, but all of them were broad-shouldered, mature, strong-featured men with a heroic spirit. He might be a preacher who qualified, but not a ramen chef or a comedian.

"There's no need to report to Emiya, you must have been involved... What about you, Chisei? I heard that your family has decided to participate in the Holy Grail War?"

"Yes, I am the Master who is fighting on behalf of the family...Father."

Yuan Zhisheng nodded slightly, and while speaking he raised his head, stretched out his right arm with the back of his hand facing upward, revealing the bright red Command Seal pattern that looked like a tattoo. The light leaking through the stained glass window danced on his shoulders, reflecting his cold profile, like a wakizashi about to be unsheathed.

"That's true."

Uesugi Yue murmured in a low voice, with mixed feelings in his heart.

The title of Emperor may seem glamorous on the surface, but it is actually a shackle. As the leader of the family, the Emperor must not only command the overall situation in peacetime, but also stand up in times of crisis involving the survival of the family...

And his son Yuan Zhisheng seemed to be born for this position - he had an outstanding appearance, a calm temperament, and a strong sense of responsibility, performing far better than the previous movie emperor who ran away directly.

Father? Emiya was slightly stunned when he heard Minamoto Chisei address Uesugi Yue in this way. He suddenly remembered that Minamoto Chisei was not a descendant of the Minamoto clan. It turned out that he was Master Yue's son? So Master Yue, you really are... a family member who escaped to experience life outside?

"Oh, what a coincidence!" Charlotte also raised her little hand high. The bright red Command Seal on the back of her snow-white hand was particularly eye-catching in the morning light.

"I am also a Master who participated in the Holy Grail War. So you and I are competitors! As your witness, do you dare to fight me in an open and level match?"

Upon hearing this, Emiya couldn't help but hold his forehead, secretly complaining in his heart: You, a mage-type Rider, still want to face off against Saber Watanabe Tsuna, a standard warrior? Do you know what the local popularity bonus is?
Yuan Zhisheng glanced at Charlotte calmly and did not respond. If the ghosts were here, he might choose to attack immediately, but facing a child... he had to have some dignity.

Uesugi Kotsuya crossed his arms and shook his head, his tone teasing, "Little kid, you should sneak back to your parents and play house. The Holy Grail War is no joke. If you really encounter a dangerous battle, you will be scared out of your wits!"

Unexpectedly, Master Yue's words hit Charlotte's sore spot by sheer coincidence. The tragic experience she had with the enemy last night was still vivid in her mind.

She was so angry that she jumped up and down, and retorted rudely, "Shouldn't it be you who should go back home to play house? If you really encounter a dangerous battle, be careful not to hurt your back and get out of breath! Otherwise, if you have a heart attack in the middle of the battle, it won't be worth it!"

Upon hearing this, Uesugi Yue said calmly, "Little girl, what's the point of this little problem you mentioned? If you say so, it means you haven't seen the 'systemic organ failure' on my medical examination reports over the years."

Uesugi Yue didn't plan to show off his eloquence any more. Even though he was so old that his bones were about to fall apart and his organs were failing, he was still the real movie king. He was a man who could even play the role of a contemporary swordsman by picking up two rolling pins. Even if Yuan Zhisheng stood in front of him, he could only lower his head and act like a son.

Charlotte was still in a state of rage, indignant, with her cheeks puffed up like an angry pufferfish. However, Uesugi Yue ignored her and turned to look at Yuan Zhisheng, asking tentatively:

"By the way, Zhisheng, how did you know I was in the church, and..."

Gen Chisei responded fluently: "I heard about your whereabouts from the Fuma family master and the Inuyama family master."

He paused and looked directly at Uesugi Yue, as if he had already anticipated the question that the other party had not asked - how he confirmed that Uesugi Yue was his biological father.

"As for confirming the father-son relationship, it's because your father...the hospital where you often go for physical examinations also has family members paying attention. I did a paternity test this morning using the blood sample from your physical examination."

Uesugi Yue was stunned at first, then he burst into laughter with great joy, feeling deeply moved:

Finally! Today, his "recognition process" was finally completed smoothly! Modern technology is really great. With the ironclad evidence of paternity testing, it means that the father-son relationship between them is like a yellow robe, without any doubt.

Uesugi Yue subconsciously touched his pocket, wanting to light up his lighter and take a puff of cigarette, but unfortunately smoking was prohibited inside the church. In fact, before Aga told him that he might have offspring that day, he had never thought that he would have blood relatives in this world. In addition to missing his deceased mother, he chose to believe in religion over the years because he felt helpless that "he could not find relatives in the world, so he had to choose to embrace the Lord."

"Okay, okay! Did you hear me, Emiya? Learn from the young student! Technology certification! Ironclad evidence!"

Uesugi Yue gestured frantically, "Look at Yuan Zhisheng, he went through the whole process straight away, but you keep dragging your feet, coming to my place to eat ramen from morning till night, and now you should hurry up and arrange a paternity test! When the time comes, I want you to call me daddy!"

“…? Okay.”

Emiya didn't expect that Master Yue would still argue with him about this matter. He thought, if they really wanted to do a paternity test, that would be great. The sooner it's done, the sooner he can give up.

He coughed lightly and changed the subject casually, "By the way, where did Master Yue hear the news about the Holy Grail War?"

"Oh, early in the morning, before you guys arrived, a group of believers dressed in robes came over to chat with me. The old charlatan who led them claimed that they were from the 'Holy Church' and were planning to use the name of faith to recruit me... Ha! Do they think I'm an old man who's easy to fool?"

"Really?"

Emiya was slightly stunned, and his eyes unconsciously turned away, meeting Charlotte's. As expected, the latter showed a smug expression, with a lovely smile rippling on her porcelain-white cheeks. "Did you see it? I told you, the church will definitely not let go of such a shabby church!"

"I can't pretend I didn't hear you." Uesugi Yue picked up a very old Bible and stroked the yellowed pages with his rough fingers, as if he was flipping through the accumulated history.

"This church is not shabby, but it has a nostalgic old-fashioned decoration style. You won't find such a style in other neighborhoods. It's unique here."

Emiya thought that in a modern metropolis like Tokyo, Master Yue's place is truly unique, like a corner forgotten by time.

He decided not to dwell on this topic anymore and said seriously:

"Since the Holy Church is here, it seems that they are also very interested in the Holy Grail War. However, this is not a formal competition. According to our investigation, the person behind the scenes is likely to be cultivating something extraordinary."

"Master Yue, there is actually no need to refuse so bluntly. You can use this opportunity to make use of their power in a reasonable way, such as investigating the behind-the-scenes of this Holy Grail War—"

"Why..." Uesugi Yue's gray eyebrows suddenly frowned, "Did you find out anything?"

"Yeah, some pretty amazing stuff."

Seeing that Uesugi Koshi and Minamoto no Chio were both unaware of the situation, Emiya told them about the shadow servant he encountered last night, the mirror world, and the growing "black shadow" monster.

Gen Chisei was quite surprised. "There is such a thing as Shadow Servants? It sounds like they can be mass-produced and controlled!?"

This is truly shocking. Even if Shadow Servants do not have the powerful skills and treasures of genuine Servants, they still have extremely perfect combat power. Once it is made public, it will definitely attract the covetousness of secular governments.

"Well, that's it. Besides, Shadow Servants are just a minor problem," Emiya said solemnly.

"The more serious problem is that the operation of the Holy Grail War relies on the underground veins. Now the veins are distorted and even reveal a mirror world. The tricky thing about this situation is that it is difficult for us to find the entrance to explore, and we can't monitor what kind of monsters are breeding there..."

"Indeed..." Genji nodded. After hearing what Emiya said, it seemed that blowing up the earth veins would solve the problem, but the problem was that this was Tokyo, a metropolis with a population of tens of millions, and no matter what means were used, the impact on the secular people had to be considered.

Gen Chisei turned to Uesugi Yue and said, "By the way, father, since you did not participate in the Holy Grail War, you may not have understood some of the terms. Actually..."

"No, I understand," Uesugi Yue put down the Bible with a strange look on his face, "The ground veins... How dare you tamper with the ground veins..."

The old man knew very well that a certain family history book that he had burned recorded that the "Night Food Ground" governed by Tsukuyomi in mythology was a land of night without light, a gloomy world of the dead, namely the Nibelungen.

This special Nibelung was the opposite of Takama-ga-hara, a city in the mirror, in mythological times. But in modern times, it has become a mirror world of real Tokyo.

The so-called dragon veins, also known as the earth veins, are large alchemical matrices deep underground. Their function is to maintain the existence of the Night Food Source since ancient times.
