Emiya Shirou doesn't want to work overtime

In the past, androids were extremely inconspicuous beings; even if they passed by, few people would notice them.

But now, it's quite clear that you can sense the presence of an aura from the androids.

However, this does not mean that Shirou Emiya is not sensitive to his surroundings.

However, even within his own camp, Emiya doesn't need to be constantly on edge; some relaxation is necessary.

On the other hand, the android and Astolfo are constantly adjusting the bodies of those androids.

They didn't stop working as soon as they moved into the villa.

Emiya was also beside them at the time.

According to Astolfo's Master, these homunculus were combat-type homunculus specifically created as fighting forces, and the mages of the Yggdrasilia clan originally regarded them as expendable resources.

Naturally, the goal was to minimize costs, which resulted in artificial humans having very short lifespans, with almost all of them dying within a few years.

When Emiya heard the news, he felt a sense of anxiety. Although Astolfo's Master was given knowledge and common sense about magic, this knowledge was given by the magicians of the Yggdrasilia clan.

Neither experience nor technology can effectively adjust the bodies of these artificial humans.

Rather, it's more accurate to say that he himself has such a problem, but Danic has made assurances to him, after all, he was the one who brought back the technology for androids.

Adjusting androids should be something he excels at.

However, in the end, it was Gold's intervention that truly restored the artificial human's body to its original state.

"What a bunch of idiots! You can't even do something like this right. Let me show you what a real magician is!"

Gold suddenly pushed the door open and angrily berated the group of people who were adjusting the androids in their seats, but his tone gradually became calmer.

After all, Danic was also among the group of magicians who were adjusting the bodies of the androids. He was the patriarch of the Yggdrasilia race, so Gord naturally lost his confidence.

However, he made adjustments to all the androids in a very short time, which made Danic look at him with new respect.

Although his personality is somewhat flawed, his talent as a magician is truly exceptional.

While Danic could also make adjustments to androids, he could never do it as easily and quickly as he did.

A king has the talent of a king, and a chef has the function of a chef; only the old man's purple hermit... cough! cough!

Danic didn't think much of Gold's somewhat overbearing behavior; after all, he was nearly a hundred years old and had a rather open-minded view of many things, except—

At that moment, accompanied by the sound of a wheelchair turning, Fiore found Shirou Emiya in the corridor with the help of Corles.

"Mr. Emiya!"

"Emiya-senpai!"

Corles and Fiore greeted Shirou Emiya.

"Excuse me, what's the matter?"

Emiya Shirou responded politely to them and asked a question.

Koles had also spoken briefly with Shirou Emiya, and it was a pleasant experience. At least in Koles's opinion, Shirou Emiya was not suited to be a magician.

Although he was older than Shirou Emiya, Corles still addressed Shirou Emiya as his senior, considering that Shirou Emiya's magical skills were already sufficient to fight Servants head-on.

As for Fiore, in the eyes of the Yggdmillennia clan, she is practically confirmed as the next Yggdmillennia clan leader.

Moreover, since many decisions regarding Yggdrasilia were made by her, she naturally couldn't address Emiya Shirou as a senior.

At the very least, if Danic doesn't intend to continue living like this, Fiore will undoubtedly be the next patriarch of Yggdmirena.

This is something that Danic tacitly acknowledged.

"We've come to help Emiya-senpai unlock the remaining magic circuits!"

Chapter 186 Activating the Magic Circuit

"Thank you so much--"

With the help of Corles and Fiore, Shirou Emiya successfully activated all 27 of his magic circuits. Although, according to Corles, Shirou Emiya was missing his other arm, making it impossible for him to activate all 27 magic circuits.

But since the magic circuits had already been activated, there was no way to question them. However, he was helping Fiore activate Shirou Emiya's magic circuits while taking notes, which made Shirou Emiya feel a little embarrassed.

I always feel like I've become some kind of lab rat.

But after feeling his own magical power increase significantly, Shirou Emiya expressed his heartfelt gratitude to them.

After all, when it comes to magicians, Shirou Emiya is only a complete novice and knows absolutely nothing about them.

As for how to open the magic circuits, Koles explained it to Shirou Emiya, but Shirou Emiya did not come up with any ideas on how to open the magic circuits.

Because Shirou Emiya was already able to freely switch his magic circuits on and off, and due to the habits he developed from constant battles, Shirou Emiya could basically automatically activate his magic circuits whenever he used his breathing technique.

When you stop using the breathing technique, the magic circuit will also shut down accordingly.

There's no need to imagine a switch for a magic circuit again.

"No, Mr. Emiya, you have helped the Yggdrasilia clan a great deal, there is no need to thank us like this."

Fiore shook her head, even though they had the intention to threaten Shirou Emiya and had even taken some action against him.

But Shirou Emiya has been helping the Yggdrasil Nymphs from beginning to end, whether it's fighting alongside Arthur against the Reds or risking his life to save the homunculus on the battlefield.

If Shirou Emiya is indeed not a member of the same family, Fiore would consider him a member of her Yggdrasilia clan.

However, the magic circuits on Shirou Emiya also surprised Fiore, as she rarely saw 27 high-quality magic circuits.

"May I ask who your father is?"

Fiore was curious to know which family Shirou Emiya belonged to, since normally only families would produce a mage with such a large number and quality of magic circuits.

“Emiya Kiritsugu——”

Emiya Shirou looked nostalgic, but still answered Fiore's question.

As for whether this was a parallel world, whether Kiritsugu Emiya had adopted him, or whether he was still alive, Shirou Emiya didn't think too much about it.

He also had no intention of contacting anyone he knew in the world.

"!?"

Fiore took in the surprise. Although she had found Kiritsugu Emiya during the investigation, there was no information showing that Shirou Emiya had any relationship with Kiritsugu Emiya.

Furthermore, Kiritsugu Emiya has never married or had children, so it is practically impossible for him to have his own child, especially one that is so old.

It's important to know that Kiritsugu Emiya has been active in the world of magic without ever stopping, so he couldn't possibly have time to get married and have children.

She had initially thought that Shirou Emiya was just using a pseudonym, but now it seemed that wasn't the case.

Fiore also greatly admired people like Emiya Shirou, and there was no sign of lying in his tone.

"Is he the biological father?"

Since it's a parallel world and Kiritsugu Emiya is still alive, Fiore naturally wouldn't believe that the person she's asking about, Shirou Emiya, is actually her adoptive father, Kiritsugu Emiya, who has been dead for a long time.

"Foster father—"

A slight sadness flickered in Shirou Emiya's eyes, after all, he had only spent a very short time with Kiritsugu.

"is it?"

Koles pushed open the door and led Fiore out.

He was also somewhat interested in Shirou Emiya's background, but not as much as Fiore, since he didn't know who Kiritsugu Emiya really was.

"This is what you are doing?"

As the door was opened, Joan of Arc walked over from one side of the corridor.

"Greetings, Miss Joan of Arc."

Fiore greeted Joan of Arc as she approached.

Joan of Arc responded very politely.

"We are helping Mr. Emiya open his magic circuit."

"May I ask what brings you here, Miss Jeanne?"

"I want to ask Shirou Emiya some questions."

Joan of Arc answered Fiore.

She came to ask Shirou Emiya about the Holy Grail War.

After all, his servants have already left the stage and are not members of the Yggdrasilia clan, nor are they employed by the Yggdrasilia clan like Shishikatsu Kairi.

Logically speaking, Shirou Emiya could have withdrawn from the Holy Grail War and no longer needed to concern himself with what was happening here.

That's why Jeanne wanted to ask Shirou Emiya for his opinion. Even though she needed help, she wouldn't force anyone. She believed she needed to consult Shirou Emiya.

Just then, an android rushed over from the other side of the corridor, drawing everyone's attention.

"There is no food left in this villa."

The homunculus reported to Fiore that although the patriarch of the Yggdrasilia race was Danic, since Fiore came into the picture, he had basically become a hands-off leader, and Fiore had handled most of the matters, big and small.

This is one of the reasons why the magicians of the Yggdrasilia clan believe she will be the next patriarch of the Yggdrasilia clan.

After a moment's thought, Fiore looked at Jeanne d'Arc and Shirou Emiya.

"Could you please go out and buy some food for me?"

After all, this villa was a backup location for the Yggdmirena clan, and no one had visited it for a long time, so Danic had not stored any food there.

Therefore, the warehouse of this villa was practically empty. If the artificial humans hadn't happened to be cleaning out the warehouse, perhaps no one would have noticed that there was no food inside.

They could only go hungry for one night, and Joan of Arc might faint from hunger again. After all, due to the continuous fighting, Joan of Arc had once again forgotten to eat.

Her expression also turned serious.

As for why Fiore chose Jeanne d'Arc and Shirou Emiya to go buy ingredients...

Having just moved into the villa, she has a mountain of things to deal with, and she simply can't spare a moment to attend to either the androids or the magicians of the Yggdrasilia race.

Although they always used "men" to refer to them, not many of the magicians of the Yggdrasilia clan survived that battle.

At this time, the Yggdrasilia clan was extremely short-handed, and they were already very busy just tidying up the villa and setting up traps and barriers.

Fiore had no desire to approach the necromancer Shishi Jie Li, nor would she make such a request to someone older than herself.
