Therefore... it's hard to guarantee that the other party won't resort to desperate measures and do something crazy, since the current Type-Moon universe is practically his home.
His loved ones are here: Rin, Sakura, Kirie, his friend Touko, and his home in Fuyuki City. So if things continue to escalate, it will become very troublesome.
"Don't worry, buddy. There's a Chinese saying, 'When soldiers come, we'll block them; when water comes, we'll dam it.' There's always a way out! If it really comes to that, we'll show that guy what these eyes are all about!"
As she spoke, Ryougi Shiki's aura suddenly intensified, and her eyes, like a kaleidoscope of glass, made Shen Qiu feel a chill in his heart.
At this moment: Europe - Clock Tower.
It was early morning at the clock tower, and the sun was slowly rising. Suddenly, a huge bell rang out from somewhere, echoing throughout the entire clock tower.
The Tomb of the Dead, Albion, 60 kilometers underground, Secret Council, Observatory of Calion.
It is worth mentioning that the sixtieth to eightieth underground floors of the Spirit Curtain Albion are currently the limit that magicians can reach, and there are only two departments within these twenty kilometers.
These two departments are the most private, darkest, and most unspeakable areas inside the Clock Tower; to put it simply... this is the dark side of the world.
This place belongs to the Clock Tower, yet it doesn't belong to the Clock Tower.
All the dark aspects of the magic world will be determined through private meetings of the Secret Council, and then handed over to the lower-level "Sealing Bureau" for execution.
"Welcome, all agents, to this secret meeting. I am Ryori Haseno, an employee of the Law and Politics Department. I have been entrusted by you, sir, to preside over this meeting."
Interestingly, despite its name, the large classroom is actually structured more like an observatory or research institute. Above it, ceremonial costumes depict planets and a dazzling starry sky, creating a magnificent effect.
On the podium was a stunningly beautiful woman named Ryori Adano, who was now a rising star in the Clock Tower. Although she was an employee of the Department of Law and Politics, she was very adept at navigating the various factions and was promoted at an extremely fast pace.
For the past six months, she has been the one conveying most of the meanings of the "adults".
"They called us over so early, something big must have happened."
Ryori Adano stared expressionlessly at the dark figures sitting in the chairs. Every one of these representatives attending the secret council hearing was like this, concealing their true appearance with a heavy concealment magic.
If the Clock Tower is divided into the light side and the dark side, then the nobles and Lords of the various factions are the masters of the light side, while they are the masters of the dark side.
Their decisions can determine the fate of a Grand Magician, or even an entire family. What's even more terrifying is that it doesn't matter what nationality the magician is or whether he's a magician from the Clock Tower.
If they believe that the other party's existence disrupts the balance of the magic world, then they can claim that the other party "does not exist."
What a horrifying right this is!
"You're right. According to the intelligence provided by our informants, the former Atlas Academy magician, the [Unified Speech Master], the [Book of False Gods], and even the [Living Akasha Record]—Genmu Satsuki—has appeared!"
"So it was him..."
"That guy is far too dangerous. He might get captured by the Holy Church..."
"We must get the Sealing Bureau to act quickly and seal it away..."
As soon as Ryori Adashino finished speaking, the scene became noisy. However, what no one expected was that her next words were an even bigger bombshell!
P.S.: Updates have officially resumed, tentatively two chapters a day, possibly increasing to three chapters later. A new book is also in preparation, so I hope everyone will support me!
Let me talk about the update.
So much has been happening lately... Ugh, I'm so incredibly sad, it's so painful, it's unbearable... Seriously, I feel like I'm on the verge of a mental breakdown, I'm completely disoriented.
Please let me catch my breath...
Chapter 372: Shock and Exposure in the European Magic World (Please Subscribe Automatically)
To be honest, although Genki Satsuki is known as the "Unified Speech Master" and the "Living Akasha Record," she is not particularly taken seriously by the Secret Council due to her extremely low magical talent and almost non-existent combat power.
Therefore, although he was on the list set by the seal, no large-scale manhunt was carried out against him. In addition, he deliberately kept a low profile, so the tribunal turned a blind eye.
After all, the power of the sealing system is limited, so limited combat power should be used wisely. Just like Aozaki Touko, if she honestly and quietly lives in seclusion, there will basically be no trouble.
Everyone knows this, and adults' time is very precious; they don't have time to come here all day for meetings.
But if you recklessly run out and cause a commotion like the "563" incident, then I'm sorry.
"Based on information provided by our informant, he suspects—"
"Legend has it that the third magic, which has not reappeared since the death of the first third magician, Wilde von Ritzleich Einzbern, a thousand years ago, has appeared, and it is suspected to be used by a young boy. Please take a look."
Ryori Hideyuki's face remained expressionless. She snapped her fingers with her right hand, and Shen Qiu's image was projected behind her.
The boy, around sixteen or seventeen years old, had a wolf-tail hairstyle with silver and black hair, and wore a DK high school uniform. If you ignored his pretty face, which was almost like a girl's, he would just be "an ordinary Japanese high school student."
"The Third Magic has reappeared?"
"What a joke! Wasn't that thing lost to the dust of history along with the Age of Gods?"
"It's not necessarily true. Didn't the Einzbern family create an artificial human in 900 AD to prove the existence of their Third Law? Could this time be..."
"Don't be ridiculous. Can a defective product of that level really be called 'Law'? I'm telling you, is there some mistake in your intelligence? Don't get something so important wrong."
Looking at the somewhat aggressive dark figure below, Ryori Adashino did not show any panic. Instead, she snapped her fingers and switched to another image.
"I wonder if you all still remember the Fourth Holy Grail War that broke out in the East a few months ago. That event was quite large in scale and almost caused a leak in the mystical world."
"In places like the Orient, where magic is scarce, some trivial incidents always happen..."
Ryori Hideyuki narrowed her eyes at a dark figure sitting in the corner, seemingly trying to get a clear look at the other person's appearance. This "master's" sweeping generalization had essentially dragged her into the mess as well.
After all, she was also a Japanese.
But she also knew that 99% of the magicians in the Clock Tower viewed that place in the same way, considering they were all "great nobles" who had been passed down for thousands of years since the Age of Gods.
"Of course I know. The great noble, the great Lord Kenneth Archibald El-Melloi, died in that Holy Grail War. I heard that his death was extremely gruesome, and his whole body was riddled with bullets."
A sarcastic voice rang out, clearly indicating that this person had previously been at odds with Kenneth and was now somewhat gloating.
"Since everyone already knows, I won't go into too much detail. According to our investigation, there were two victors in the Fourth Holy Grail War."
Another finger clicked, and the projection behind Ryori Adano changed to two photos.
One is the weathered face of Kiritsugu Emiya, a face that many people in the Clock Tower are quite familiar with, or even loathe. His reputation as the "Magician Killer" has made him infamous throughout the mystical world; it wouldn't be wrong to call him a rat that everyone wants to kill.
The other picture shows Shen Qiu, who was still very young at the time, and looked to be at most twelve or thirteen years old.
"I suspect that these two photos are of the same person."
"you mean....."
“That’s right. I suspect that this boy named Matou Aki came into contact with the Root after winning the Fourth Holy Grail War, and thus obtained the Third Law!”
After Ryori Adashino finished speaking, the entire secret council chamber fell silent.
Because all the magicians present knew that although her words were extremely crazy, they were theoretically and practically feasible, even though the Holy Grail War had never succeeded before.
"Impossible, the inhibitory force wouldn't..."
"Don't be silly. Why do you insist on looking at the behavior of the restraint force from a human perspective? Have you all forgotten about that Fifth Magician who also came from the East?"
"No, there has already been one more uncontrollable mage in this world. Whether it's true or not... there absolutely cannot be a second one!"
With just a few words from the crowd, Shen Qiu's fate was sealed.
However, he was still unaware of this and was leisurely enjoying sunbathing at the beach in Guanbuzi.
It's September now, the weather is neither too cold nor too hot, making it the perfect time to visit the beach. After leisurely taking a sip of orange soda, he turned his gaze to Yusitesa, who was wearing a school swimsuit and building sandcastles with Sakura.
Unfortunately, although Yustissa is an extremely mature "adult" in terms of age, she is still quite conservative in terms of mentality.
As for Sakura... he's not that much of a beast yet, let's wait a few more years.
"It's been so long since I've enjoyed such a leisurely time. Spending money here isn't cheap. It feels so good to be taken care of, handsome young man~"
Shen Qiu stared speechlessly at Aozaki Touko, who was wearing a bikini beside him. Putting everything else aside, Touko's figure was absolutely top-notch for Type-Moon, and coupled with her natural mature and sophisticated aura, in a sense—
They are a very suitable person to date.
"Ah Qiu, lie down, let me apply some sunscreen for you."
Just then, Wuzhao Kirie returned from swimming. With the help of the Third Law, her body had been completely healed, and her complexion was naturally better. Her figure was no less impressive than that of Orange.
"Thank you so much, Kirie!"
Although it was impossible for him to get tanned by ultraviolet rays at this point, he couldn't refuse since Kirie had already brought it up, so he lay down on the recliner.
"I wonder how long this carefree time can last..."
Thinking of this, he sighed softly. He didn't know why, but even though it was a normal plan to hunt down Zong Lian in the wilderness, he always felt that something was wrong.
It's like... the harbinger of an impending storm.
P.S.: I've moved... I broke up with my girlfriend a while ago and haven't been able to process it for a long time.
Chapter 373: The Twenty-Seven Ancestors - The Fifth Magician
"What...this is impossible!"
Inside the dilapidated thatched hut in Guanbuzi Village, when Xuanwu Gaoyue, who had been meditating for half a day, opened her eyes again, she seemed to be plunged into boundless shock.
Fear, unease, confusion, and doubt—a variety of emotions simultaneously manifested on his refined and amiable face, and he himself was lost in deep thought.
"What's wrong, Xuanwu?"
"Why, why is there absolutely no information about that boy named Matou Aki in the records I could access... or rather, why is there no such person at all!"
As if he had gone mad, the magic circuits in Xuanwu Gaoyue's body were flowing rapidly. In his more than twenty years of life, this was the first time he had encountered such a situation.
What is the Akasha record?
In layman's terms, it is a blueprint that records all life from birth to death, which can be understood as the "Book of Life". The vibrational frequency of every soul is included in it. In a sense, it can be called "the power of God".
Or, to put it another way, 11, which belongs to the power of Alaya.
