My two-dimensional resident

Chapter 47 The things you hate most about watching dramas can often make you happy.

"No, no, no! You've misunderstood! This is no longer the world you know. I have no interest in interfering in your Holy Grail War, and I'm even less interested in the little Holy Grail prepared by your Inzbern family."

Therefore, please lower your guard and let Berserker Hercules stop fighting.

"After all, this is my island. As a guest, having your servant attack my residents seems beneath the dignity of the Einzbern family, doesn't it?"

"you!!!"

Upon hearing the words "Lesser Grail" and "Hercules," Ilya could no longer maintain her composure.

The other party actually knew her identity and the true name of her servant. In this world, apart from her grandfather and herself, there was no one else who could possibly know this.

But why does the man in front of me know all of this?

But what Lin Tian said next caused her already crumbling mental defenses to completely collapse.

"You are actually 18 years old, but why do you look like you are 8 or 9? It's because the clan patriarch modified you into a vessel to hold the souls of Servants, and because of this modification, you only have a little over a year left to live."

Oh, right! You also have a younger brother, a brother who isn't related to you by blood. He's an orphan your father, Kiritsugu Emiya, adopted in Fuyuki City after he abandoned you. An orphan who lost his family in the Fourth Holy Grail War.

You hate him, hate him for taking your father away. But you hate your father even more, why did he...?

"enough!"

Ilya trembled and screamed desperately, trying to stop Lin Tian from saying anything more.

She couldn't understand how the other person knew her deepest secrets, secrets she had never revealed to anyone.

Spoilers are fun for a while, and spoilers are even more fun if you keep spoiling them.

Seeing that Ilya had broken down, Lin Tian stopped provoking her fragile nerves and turned to look at Ace, who was still wrestling with Berserker in a WWE "wrestling match".

"Ace! Stop fighting! Aren't you tired?"

"Ah! Lin Tian, ​​you've arrived? He's the first truly powerful expert I've encountered since I set sail. Wait a moment! I'm about to defeat him!"

Ace, who had been thrown to the ground on the beach by Berserkaer's over-the-shoulder throw, heard someone calling him and immediately looked towards the sound. Upon seeing Lin Tian, ​​he shouted loudly that he would defeat the enemy before him!

Defeating Heracles, the great hero and son of Zeus in Greek mythology?!

Lin Tian couldn't help but laugh. That was a ruthless person who had completed twelve "impossible" tasks and was named Hercules by Zeus.

Even though it's just a Heroic Spirit clone right now, it's still not something Ace can handle.

If his strength hadn't been restricted on this island, Ace would most likely have been instantly killed.

Although Hercules' strength was limited to the same level as Ace, he possessed superb combat skills.

In Lin Tian's eyes, the battle between Ace and Hercules was like a middle school student blocking the entrance of an elementary school and beating up a passing elementary school student.

It was obvious that Ace was covered in bruises, while Hercules, apart from his muscular physique, showed absolutely no signs of being hit by Ace.

However, since Ace loved fighting so much, Lin Tian didn't force him to stop. After all, fighting a martial arts master would also improve Ace's combat skills.

Lin Tian then turned his gaze to Ilya again. At this moment, Ilya's eyes were unfocused, her head was down, and she seemed to be thinking about something.

Seeing this, Lin Tian didn't know what to do. As if possessed, he went to Ilya's side and raised his arm to stroke her silver-white hair.

"You did nothing wrong; the only wrong thing is that distorted world. Whatever you think in your heart is right."

Your trip to Fuyuki City for the Holy Grail War isn't just about completing that perverted old man's mission. You also want to see Shirou Emiya, your younger brother whom you've never met.

Right! You want to know what kind of person he is, that he can keep your father by his side and prevent him from coming after you...

Lin Tian felt like he was a master of PUA, first giving Ilya a blow to the head, then feeding her a pudding.

Regardless of the fact that Ilya was already questioning her life after he spoiled the plot for her, he went on to reveal some of the hidden secrets he knew.

"...Actually, your father returned to the Inzbern family castle ten years ago after the Fourth Holy Grail War, and he wanted to take you to live in Fuyuki City."

But your chieftain refused him entry into the castle and refused to let him see you...

In the years that followed, your father tried to see you more than once, but was always refused. Unable to see his daughter, he suffered from depression for the rest of his life, until his death…

"Is everything you're saying true?"

Upon hearing Lin Tian say that her father had always wanted to see her and wanted to live with her, Ilya looked up at Lin Tian, ​​tears streaming down her face and gathering at her chin, falling drop by drop onto the sand at her feet.

The things Lin Tian said before were all her own secrets, which she couldn't possibly reveal. So when she heard Lin Tian talk about her father, she already believed him to some extent.

The thought that her father, whom she had resented, had never actually abandoned her made Ilya realize that her life was full of lies.

"Really, you and I are from two different worlds, and there is absolutely no conflict of interest between us."

I have no reason to lie to you! On the contrary, the moment you came here, you became connected to this island, and to me. I don't want you to be blinded by misunderstandings and live with resentment towards your father forever…”

"So my father never abandoned me after all..."

Ilya's thoughts drifted back to ten years ago, to the image of her father taking her skiing before he left. The scene in her mind was vivid and clear, showing her father's rare smile.

The resentment I've always felt towards my father will, from this moment on, melt away little by little, like snow falling in spring...

Although Ilya was only a year younger than him, Lin Tian instinctively regarded her as a pitiful little girl.

Like Erza, the former was used by the family patriarch and became a "tool," while the latter was lonely and betrayed by her own comrades...

Following his initial dream when he arrived on the island, he envisioned transforming it into a paradise, an "ideal land." Lin Tian could not allow Ilya—the resident candidate—to retrace her tragic path.

"Brother! Who is she?"

Just as Ilya was about to say something to the man in front of her who knew about her past, a one-eyed girl with crimson hair suddenly ran up to her.

This made her instinctively take a step back. Seeing that she had achieved her goal, the girl walked past her with her back to the man, put her arms around his arm, and turned her head to look at her warily.

Seeing the girl's affectionate gestures towards the man and her hostility towards her, Ilya, with her adult mind, instantly understood something.

The little girl in front of her was wary of her, afraid that she would take her brother away.

Chapter 48: If we do things that readers like, it should be legal, right? (Please read on and vote!)

But these siblings didn't look related at all; the brother had an Asian face, while the sister was purely Western. This reminded me of my relationship with Shirou Emiya.

Ilya chuckled and reached out to ask her maid for a tissue. Her hand was already halfway up when she suddenly realized her two homunculus maids weren't beside her. A little embarrassed, she could only wipe the tears from her face with her own hands.

"My name is Illyasviel von Einzbern. I am new to your esteemed place, please take good care of me!"

As she spoke, Ilya grasped the pleats of her white skirt with both hands and bowed slightly towards Lin Tian and Erza, performing the Einzbern family etiquette.

Although the man before her knew everything about her, Ilya detected no hostility from him through her powerful senses. Now that she had come to his territory and he had shown goodwill, Ilya could no longer regard him as an enemy.

When you're on someone else's turf, it's best to first understand their strength and objectives; that's the most important thing.

As a qualified magician, Ilya always remained vigilant.

“My name is Lin Tian, ​​the owner of this island. This is my sister, Erza, Erza Scarlet. The one fighting Berserker is Portgas D. Ace. You can just call him Ace. There is another resident on the island, I'll introduce you to him in a bit.”

'As expected, we're not related by blood. No wonder she's so hostile towards me... Heh, how interesting!'

After hearing Lin Tian's introduction, Ilya's guess was confirmed. She smiled and nodded at Erza.

"Hello, Erza."

"...Hello, Ilya...S...Feel. It's nice to have you here."

Erza's sixth sense told her that the girl in front of her, who was her age, was dangerous in some ways, and that she disliked her intensely. But out of politeness, she still greeted Illya.

Although she felt that Ilya might threaten her position in her brother's heart, Ilya had arrived on the island first. As Lin Tian's sister, she was practically a half-owner of the adorable Rabbit Island, and she couldn't be impolite to the new guest.

Lin Tian was unaware of Erza's subtle thoughts, and even if he had, he would only have smiled slightly. He understood why Erza would have such an idea.

A person who has been lonely for a long time and has been hurt deeply craves love and care. Erza is such a person. She has just gained her brother, and when she meets someone her own age, her first reaction is fear that this person will take away her loving and kind brother. This reaction is normal.

"Erza, don't be fooled by Ilya's appearance. She's 18 now. You should call her 'older sister'!" Lin Tian said gently, stroking Erza's hair.

Although Ilya was transformed into the Lesser Grail, she was born in Einzbern and possesses vast magical knowledge.

Erza, who has just awakened her magic, is precisely the type of person who lacks this magical knowledge. Although Fairy Tail magic and the magic of the Fate world are not the same system.

But who knows, after Erza learns the magic of the Fate world from Illya, she might invent her own unique magic.

For this reason, Lin Tian hoped that Erza and Ilya could become good friends, and that Ilya could teach Erza about magic.

He was also quite interested in magical knowledge, but seeing that Ilya hadn't let her guard down around him, Lin Tian knew that if he asked Ilya for magical knowledge, she would most likely refuse, but might also offer a reward in exchange.

As everyone knows, magical knowledge is an invaluable treasure for a magic user. It cannot be easily passed on to others.

However, Erza is different. Not only is she cute and has a sweet voice, but she also has a pitiful past.

Lin Tian believed that Ilya, who had a similar tragic experience to Erza, would definitely fall in love with Erza and teach her magic.

"Ilya... Sister. May I call you that?"

Erza was somewhat shocked; the girl in front of her, who looked even younger than herself, was actually 18 years old. Half-believing, half-doubting, Erza timidly asked Illya.

Being suddenly called "older sister" caught Ilya off guard. Because her body had stopped developing, although her mind was mature...

However, in order to make her behavior consistent with her appearance, Ilya usually pretends to speak and act like a little girl.

She was genuinely taken aback when people started calling her "older sister."

"Um... okay. Erza!"

Seeing Erza, who had lowered her guard, call her "sister," Illya could only silently accept it. But as for the instigator, Lin Tian, ​​Illya rolled her eyes and confronted him.

'There's potential!' Seeing Ilya's reaction after Erza called her 'older sister,' Lin Tian was certain that the two of them would become very good friends.

"Discussing a woman's age in front of her doesn't seem like very gentlemanly behavior, Mr. Lin Tian, ​​you should know that, right?"

"Haha, this? Haha, what a beautiful day! Ilya, you've just arrived on the island, let me tell you about the rules of this island!"

Having been outmaneuvered by Ilya, Lin Tian refused to admit that his behavior was unbecoming and quickly tried to gloss over the situation.

"..."

Lin Tian's current shameless behavior instantly shattered the unfathomable and awe-inspiring image she had of him. Ilya snorted coldly, expressing her dissatisfaction.

The older brother and the new older sister are in a cold war because of their age difference, while Erza smiles but is overjoyed inside.

"Your companion seems to be no match for Berserker. I'll have Berserker stop."

A brief moment of calm reminded Ilya that she hadn't come here alone. Realizing she had completely forgotten Berserker, she quickly looked at the two fighting and saw Berserker gripping the leg of the man named Ace tightly, violently thrashing him on the beach. She couldn't help but speak up.

"No rush. Ace has finally met someone he can't beat, so let him learn a thing or two from the great hero Hercules."

Hearing that Ilya wanted Berserker to stop, Lin Tian also looked at Ace and the others, noticing that Ace was like Loki from Marvel, and Berserker was like the Hulk. The two perfectly recreated the most classic scene from Avengers 1—smashing the floor.
