Type-Moon: Root Seiko

The warm scent and sweet color emanating from Luo Zhen told Canaan that he really wasn't lying.

It feels so good to be trusted.

Canaan felt a small impulse, and two little figures floated into his mind.

The little devil on the left said, "Shall we eat Rozen?"

The little angel on the right said, "Okay, okay!"

Thus, Canaan put his knowledge into practice.

In that lightning-fast moment, she suddenly grabbed Luo Zhen's neck and gave him a sneak attack!

The soft touch is fleeting.

And indeed, they all tasted like candy.

While Luo Zhen blinked in shock, Canaan licked his lips with delight.

Her eyes sparkled: "I love you."

"I don't know what the connection is with that source, but it doesn't matter. As long as you don't want to go back to the source, I'll do everything I can to help you, it's a deal."

"...Yes, thank you."

Luo Zhen blinked, slightly embarrassed.

He was unusually shy!

Being pursued so directly by a girl, I'm definitely in a bit of a passive position.

If it were a situation like Joan of Arc's, where she was never frank and only mustered her courage at the last moment, then Rōjin could handle it with ease.

But Canaan's swift and decisive sneak attack caught Luo Zhen somewhat off guard.

The more he looked at Canaan, the cuter she seemed; this sister who was so compatible with him was practically cheating.

He hugged Canaan's slender yet firm waist back, explaining, "Although we're brothers and sisters, that's only in a conceptual sense. We have no physical relationship whatsoever, okay?"

“I don’t even want to acknowledge it conceptually. I don’t know what went wrong with the root cause; after I escaped, they insisted on having people chase after me, causing a lot of trouble…”

"Okay, okay, stop explaining." Canaan was laughing so hard. "I like you, and you like me, that's enough. I love you, bro~"

Luo Zhen and Canaan were whispering sweet nothings to each other.

Under the watchful eyes of the restless, third-party-like Ms. Xiao Kuang, they engaged in a deep conversation for quite some time...

"..."

This made Ms. Xiao Kuang really want to run away; she should still be under the car.

-----------------

As Luo Zhen said, Canaan's identity must be kept secret and cannot be told to anyone.

Therefore, after returning to the living room, Luo Zhen only gave everyone the explanation that "Canaan is exceptionally gifted, which means it has a large capacity," which earned him a chorus of boos from Orange and the others.

It's obvious he's lying; there's definitely something else he's hiding.

But this is enough for now.

Orange and the others trust Luo Zhen. If he feels he can't say it now, then he should just keep quiet for now.

The key point is what happened after that.

Luo Zhen immediately made a plan:

"Everyone is short of magic right now, so we need to be careful when facing the enemy. Let's concentrate our efforts to reclaim a ley line node first."

"I have to go, and then there's Berserker (Little Madman) with plenty of magic. The two of us will be the main attackers, and the others will support us."

Luo Zhen looked up at the orange:

"Orange, Pearl, and Alice, we need you to set up the formation. Make thorough preparations before stimulating the spiritual vein stagnation points, and consider the possibility of failure."

"The other Heroic Spirits will protect them. If anything goes wrong, they should return to the mansion in the Pearl Garden immediately. There, the Great Witch's barrier can still provide protection. OK?"

""good.""

Once everyone entered professional mode, their expressions turned serious, as if they were about to team up to fight a boss.

The group chose the point of least magical reaction to make their move, which happened to be the Fuyuki Church.

Fuyuki City has been managed by the Tohsaka family for hundreds of years, and the city's important buildings are all built on spiritual vein nodes, making them very easy to identify.

Those accumulation points that absorb the magical power of the spiritual veins are also located in these places.

When Luo Zhen drove the group to the church, they passed through the deserted singularity of Fuyuki City.

Those towns and streets they knew so well are now desolate ghost towns.

"What a waste."

Luo Zhen shook his head with heartache: "Let's go to the supermarket on the way back."

"The city's water and electricity should still be working, so let's quickly salvage the fresh food. Orange, could you send more mannequins to scour the city's vegetable markets? Only half a day has passed, so there should still be plenty of edible fruits and vegetables. Let's bring them back and put them in cold storage."

"You man," Orange rolled her eyes. "You're great in every other way, but why are you so concerned about such trivial things as food and drink? You're so petty."

"Because eating is the privilege of the living."

Luo Zhen stood tall and proud, very pleased with himself.

"Wanting to eat and being able to eat is proof that you're still alive, indicating that your body still wants to live."

“There is nothing more precious than this. So I will definitely resolve this singularity and bring you back.”

"Then before that, we must eat and drink well and get plenty of rest."

“Oh~ (€€€€€€€€)€€”

Leaving aside the proud and aloof Orange, Canaan and Alice in the back seat had completely been molded into Luo Zhen's shape, cheering in agreement.

The person in the middle was a beat slower, but still raised their hand.

Orange bit her lip in frustration, but finally relented and raised her hand:

"...Oh...really, are we elementary school students on a spring outing?"

She shifted the position of her legs as she muttered a complaint under her breath.

Chapter 101 Generous Fanatic

The Fuyuki Church is located high on the mountaintop, and it takes quite a bit of effort to climb up there.

The spiritual vein stagnation point is located in the center of the open space at the entrance, and walking up there can make people feel a sticky and uncomfortable sensation.

"We haven't encountered any enemies along the way," Irisviel muttered. "Do the enemies not care about us? Are they underestimating us?"

"Maybe she can't see that closely," Luo Zhen explained to Ai Li.

Although the mastermind behind the scenes controlled the Greater Grail and modified the Spirit Origins of Heroic Spirits to absorb Spirit Veins, they pulled off one outrageous maneuver after another.

Ultimately, the reason for using such complicated methods to transform Fuyuki City into a singularity can only be:

"She can't come directly to Fuyuki City."

Luo Zhenru said, "The mastermind behind this kind of thing is most likely not from this world."

"In order to interfere with parallel worlds, she had to take this roundabout and long route, turning Fuyuki City into a singularity."

"The fact that this technique is not yet complete means that her plan has not yet succeeded. Even if she has the ability to see into the past, present, and future, she cannot interfere with every detail, so she cannot send people to intercept us directly."

"Oh, oh~," Irisviel clapped her hands, seemingly impressed but not quite understanding.

The android princess herself was not nervous at all, and even under such circumstances, she still felt satisfied and happy with her curiosity.

She laughed and said, "Truly worthy of being called Lord Luo, you really understand the root of things."

"Then could you just persuade that 'source of the flow' to coexist peacefully with us and stop fighting... Ah, she made such a disgusted face."

Luo Zhen answered Irisviel with his plasmolysis-like facial expressions.

To convince someone to trace the source? ...Are you kidding me!

They're products of that very source; how could anyone possibly persuade them?

...Although Luo Zhen wanted to say that, too much had already leaked out.

In Luo Zhen's view, Canaan's complete lack of awareness was an accident, and he never expected that such a source could emerge.

Although Canaan possesses a magical circuit that leads directly to the Root, it actually has infinite magical power.

But she had no interest in magic or mystery itself, nor did she possess any omniscient clairvoyance.

She simply possesses the special ability of "synesthesia" to receive and analyze information, and overall, her origins are more likely to flow from the physical body.

This is a good thing, as it maintains her easygoing personality and puts Luo Zhen's brother at ease.

"?"

Canaan, with a sugar stick in his mouth, gave Luo Zhen a puzzled look, not understanding why he suddenly seemed so affectionate.

After climbing more than a hundred steps up the hillside and confirming the location of the siltation point, Orange immediately started working.

A large number of the puppets she controlled had already gathered here, making it look like a sea of ​​people.
