Genshin Impact, but the chat group

"So, this Holy Grail War can summon ancient people who have died?"

"That's right. Those legendary heroes become heroic spirits after they die, existing independently of the world and even the timeline. They will remain outside the world until someone summons them, at which point they will return to this world."

Shanks focused his attention on the idea of ​​summoning people from the past. When he first joined the chat group, he was surprised by the talk of reincarnation. At that time, he wondered if his captain Roger had been reincarnated to another world. Now, hearing about the Servant summoning in the Holy Grail War, he wondered if such a thing existed in the pirate world, would Roger, the Pirate King remembered by the whole world, also become a Heroic Spirit?

"In that case, wouldn't these people also be considered immortal in another sense?"

Aizen's focus is different from Shanks'.

"In a sense, this is indeed a kind of immortality, but this kind of immortality does not include freedom."

At least that's how it was in the old version that Li Yue knew. The Heroic Spirits had no freedom and could only exist on the Throne of Heroes, which stood alone outside the world. As for what new things they might come up with with the updates of FGO, that's unclear. After all, Type-Moon, like Mikado, likes to constantly retcon the original work.

"To what extent can the wish of this Holy Grail be fulfilled?"

Shanks then turned his attention back to the Holy Grail.

"The extent to which wishes can be fulfilled is rather limited. It can only be limited to certain things within the Earth's borders, and it can't go too far beyond that. But I don't know what the upper limit is, because I've never used anything like the Holy Grail."

Li Yue helplessly spread her hands.

"So, do either of you want to go have some fun?"

"Although I really want to go and have some fun, my time doesn't allow it, and it's not good for me to be away for too long."

Shanks scratched the back of his head helplessly. He really wanted to try out another world, especially that Holy Grail that could grant wishes. It sounded really interesting. He wouldn't pin his hopes on the Holy Grail, but he wanted to see if it was real.

However, as one of the Four Emperors, he cannot leave the fleet for too long, especially given the current tense situation at sea.

"Alright, then I'll take Shanks back later. Captain Aizen, what about you?"

Li Yue looked at Aizen.

"As for me, I can go and take a look. Hueco Mundo doesn't need me to do anything for the time being. Soul Society's attention is focused on the Wandenreich, so I have plenty of time to travel."

Rather, what Aizen enjoys most right now is traveling around to different worlds with Li Yue.

"Then I'll go to the new world with Captain Aizen and have some fun. As for Shanks, I'll open a door for you so you can return to your own world."

"Yes, it is like that!"

Shanks nodded affirmatively.

As the three of them finalized their destination, the tavern where they were located suddenly fell into complete silence.

While they were chatting, customers kept leaving the tavern, but no new customers came in. When they finished chatting, only the three of them were left in the tavern; even the owner and waiters were gone.

"It seems they're almost ready."

Li Yue looked towards the tavern's entrance, and Aizen and Shanks did the same.

"Is it because of my sparring with that swordsman that we ended up on their bounty list?"

Shanks laughed.

"I never imagined that I would be wanted in my own world, and that I would still be wanted in another world."

"Wouldn't it be un-pirate-like if a pirate didn't have a bounty on his head?"

"Haha, Li Yue, you're right!"

Amid Shanks' loud laughter, the tavern door was pushed open, and Reinhard reappeared before the three of them.

"It's nice to see you again, gentlemen."

Reinhard greeted Li Yue and the other two very politely, as if they were old friends he had known for a long time.

"We meet again, Sword Saint!"

Shanks raised his glass in greeting to Rao Tian.

"I didn't expect that the three of you would be back in the capital so soon. This gentleman's spatial abilities are really useful."

Lai Aotian looked at Li Yue. He had a very deep impression of Li Yue opening a portal in front of him last time.

"That's right, my teleportation portals are top-notch for traveling."

Li Yue gave herself a thumbs-up.

"So, gentlemen, what brings you back to the capital this time?"

Thinking of the idea she had given to 486 before, Li Yue deliberately lowered her voice.

"We've come to see the last vestiges of this royal capital's glory."

"The final glory? You want to destroy the capital?"

Lai Aotian became nervous.

"No, we were not the ones who destroyed the capital."

Li Yue shook her finger at Lai Aotian, then stood up abruptly.

"The true evil hidden in the darkness of this world is about to emerge, the guardians of the kingdom are dying, and this world is about to fall into the abyss!"

He drew his Yamato and performed a cross slash in the air to open a portal. Aizen and Shanks immediately appeared beside Li Yue, and the three of them faced away from the portal, looking at Lei Aotian.

"This world is about to burn and then fall into the abyss. Son of man, may you find the one who can save the world and help him ascend to the highest throne!"

"Wait, what did you just mean?"

The riddles Li Yue uttered left Lai Aotian completely bewildered; no matter how he listened, he couldn't understand what Li Yue meant.

"Don't understand? No problem, the world will tell you the answer."

Li Yue waved her hand, and Aizen and Shanks entered the portal together. After glancing at Lai Aotian, Li Yue also turned and entered the portal.

"Wait, tell me what you know!?"

Lai Aotian drew his dragon sword, intending to stop Li Yue, but was blocked by a stone pillar that suddenly appeared on the ground.

Li Yue stood at the teleportation portal, looking indifferently at Lai Aotian.

"No need to rush, Reinhard. We will meet again eventually, but not here, not now. We will meet again when the world is plunged into darkness."

After saying that, the portal closed, leaving Reinhard completely bewildered after cutting down the stone pillar.

"Reinhard!"

Another figure rushed into the tavern; it was Julius, who had heard the commotion and rushed in to help.

"What happened? Where are they?"

“They left, just like they did in the slums, right in front of me.”

Reinhard sheathed his dragon sword and stared at the spot where Li Yue and the other two had left, his head full of question marks.

"What does that mean? What exactly did he mean by that?"

204. Rin, you don't want anything to happen to Sakura, do you?

[How arrogant! In short, you are from a different world, and we are from a completely different world. That's how amazing it is.]

[Growing Up and Failing: Hmph, I never expected that I, Rin Tohsaka, would have such an extraordinary encounter.]

[Always a handful: Huh? You're Rin Tohsaka? Then who am I?]

[Growing Up and Failing: Hmph, I don't care who you are, I'm Rin Tohsaka!]

[Always a handful: Where did you come from, some arrogant young lady?]

Li Yue couldn't help but laugh when she saw the two of them bickering with each other.

[Silly and Funny Person: Is it possible that she is actually you as a grown-up?]

[Always a failure as a child: Me as an adult? Or is this a parallel universe?]

[Growing Up and Failing: Me as an Adult? But I'm only 7 years old.]

[Silly Person: Huh?]

Within the chat group, with 486's explanation, the two "dropped chains" understood the situation. Although it might be shocking and unbelievable to ordinary people, the "dropped chains" family didn't think it was fake. Magic itself has many possibilities, and their family's gem magic teacher was the most famous magician in the world, the Gem Master of the Second Magic Parallel World. Therefore, connecting different worlds was not an incomprehensible thing.

Don't ask, it's magic!

However, to Li Yue's surprise, his guess about the identity was wrong.

In Li Yue's guess, the one who messed up as a child was Rin Tohsaka, while the one who messed up as an adult was Rin Tohsaka in high school.

But now it seems that the one who messed up as a child was actually the grown-up Rin Tohsaka, while the one who messed up as an adult was the one who was younger Rin Tohsaka.

[Silly Guy: Okay, looks like I guessed wrong.]

[Always a handful: Wait, 7 years old? Could it be that she is?!]

[Growing Up and Failing: What's wrong with being 7? I'm a lady personally approved by my father!]

[Always a disappointment since childhood: It's actually true!]

High school student Rin Tohsaka also realized the time period in which her other self existed.

[Silly Guy: By the way, Xiao Lin, what's your father doing these days? Did you go back to your home in Chancheng with your mother?]

[Growing Up and Failing: How did you know that Mom and I went back to our home in Chancheng yesterday?]

[Always a failure: Wait, why did you just say that out loud?!]

[Growing Up and Failing: Ugh! You tricked me! I'm not talking anymore!]

Li Yue easily learned from Xiao Lin what time period her world was currently in.

She had just returned to the Zenjou family home with her mother, which is also her mother Tohsaka Aoi's family home. This means that the Fourth Holy Grail War has entered the preparation stage and is about to begin.

[Silly Guy: Tohsaka, has your fifth round started yet?]

[Always a pain in the neck: Did you think I'd tell you?]

[Silly Guy: So you mean it hasn't started yet, right?]

[Always messing things up: Wait, how did you determine that?]

[Silly Person: How much longer until the fifth time?]

[Always a pain in the neck: Did you think I'd tell you?]

[Silly Person: Oh, I see. Well, let me put it another way, Rin, you don't want anything to happen to Sakura, right?]

[Always a disappointment since childhood: !!! !!! ]
