Xingtie: Can’t you just let me focus on completing the commissions?

[Please ensure your login message is read correctly. I look forward to seeing you in the chat channel, Miss Elaina, the Gray Witch.]

You actually know my name?

Does this mirror have any other uses?

The gray-haired girl gazed at the mirror for a long time, then a hopeful smile appeared on her face.

"I'm not the kind of woman who'll pretend nothing happened just because I've been tricked. I really look forward to seeing you again, Mr. Unknown."

……

"First magical girls, then witches, it feels a bit like a perverse sense of humor."

In the courtyard of Ryudou Temple, Emiya closed the Nen communication channel, a strange look appearing on his face.

"Puella Magi Madoka Magica and the Witch's Journey".

"Both of these worlds actually have some interesting settings..."

Let's not even talk about Madoka Magica. Even without considering the side stories, the main story and its final chapter are already multi-dimensional. If we were to add elements of games and side stories, it would probably end up like the Otaku universe, mindlessly stacking boxes.

And the witches in the witch's journey are quite extraordinary. Just the fact that time reversal magic is only at the beginner level shows how fantastical it is. At first, it's only short-term time reversal, measured in minutes. Later, true time reversal magic appears, allowing people to go back to the past, change established history, and create new parallel timelines...

If Otto lived in this kind of world, he probably wouldn't have had to kill so many people; he would have sacrificed himself long ago to start a new timeline.

The witches in "Witch's Journey" don't follow a conventional power system like Dungeons & Dragons. Instead, they lean more towards a fantasy world like Harry Potter, where magic serves as a tool to drive the plot and provide convenience, rather than pure combat ability.

"Time reversal, time stop... Time-related abilities are really quite common in this kind of worldview."

Anything involving interference in the realm of time is generally categorized as magic within the Type-Moon universe.

Even Emiya's ability to create storybooks actually has a similar "magic" within Type-Moon.

First Law

Both Kuonji Aratsu and Savior Ash are skilled in magic that leans towards this first magic direction.

To include or create things that do not exist, thus breaking through the rule of "from nothing to something".

"Qingzi's fifth law has not yet been fully explained, but its interference with time is even more chaotic than the others."

"I wonder when I'll finally be able to acquire a magic spell from the Type-Moon universe."

"How about you give me a chance, old man Gem, and let me do some quests?"

Gazing at the distant sky, Mr. Emiya wore a strange smile.

"Marshal, are you observing this area? Would you do me the honor of being friends?"

283

but,

The message had been circulating for a long time without any response from afar.

quite a while,

Mr. Emiya shrugged somewhat helplessly.

He didn't believe that the old man wasn't observing this area, after all, the sapphire and ruby ​​were the Mystic Codes created by this old man, and Luvia and Rin Tohsaka were his agents sent to carry them out.

He was even a nominal disciple in the reserve force; he didn't believe the old man would be completely indifferent.

But not responding to him now clearly means that he doesn't intend to pay attention to him.

"Fine, fine, if you don't want to talk to me, then I'll just have to find a chance to jump around in front of Rin and Luvia."

Mr. Emiya chuckled twice. If you can't handle this old geezer, surely you can handle Luvia and Rin Tohsaka?

Once you've won over his two disciples, are you still worried about not being able to gradually touch upon some of the mysteries of the Second Law in the future?

Furthermore, his family has a fifth-level mage, so once he wins over Ayumi and Miss Ash, his path to mastering the first magic will be able to expand somewhat.

Later on, we'll gradually find ways to complete the system. Apart from the fourth magic, which is still unclear, we estimate that we'll have a chance to obtain the other types of magic.

"Although I can't reach the top in one step, but... old man, you won't keep me out for long."

When your brother's will-o'-the-wisp stops in front of your house, please don't complain!

Chapter 242: Wide-Area Hypnotic Magic.

"It's said to be an explosion caused by a gas leak."

"It seems the Emiya children have also gone missing..."

"Fortunately, no bodies were found under the rubble; it's good that people are still alive."

"The Emiya couple are really pitiful..."

A jumble of chatter drifted into her ears as Irisviel stared blankly at the ruins of the old house.

“Illya, Shirou…”

She murmured the names of her two children, even though she knew they weren't under the rubble. The two children had been missing for so long and hadn't been able to contact their parents.

obviously,

Communication must have been blocked.

Or,

Their personal freedom was restricted.

We have to find them.

As Irisviel spoke, Kiritsugu Emiya, standing beside her, silently lit a cigarette. After a long while, he softly said,

"Alice, things have come to this point, we have no choice but to join the war. Ilya's disappearance is most likely related to the Holy Grail War."

"...Are you happy? Kiritsugu, you have another chance to participate in this war."

"To be honest, I didn't expect this to happen, but since someone has already started to attack us, the situation will only get worse if this continues. We must obtain Command Seals as soon as possible, or at least secure a Servant."

"You'll have to figure it out yourself. I've been away from magic for many years. My only thought now is to find those two children."

"But Alice...your body..."

"If you're afraid I'll be kidnapped by someone else and become a Lesser Grail again, you don't need to worry. Kiritsugu, over the years I've managed to shrink and block my magic circuits. Right now, my magical power is even less than yours. No one would want a Lesser Grail like this."

"...That's not what I'm worried about, Alice. In short, I hope you can act with me."

"So, the first goal is to find Illya and Shirou, is that alright? 々々."

Upon hearing this, the man took two deep drags on his cigarette, then nodded sullenly.

"Yes, but what if we encounter Servants and our strength isn't enough to take back the two children?"

Irisviel's delicate eyebrows furrowed slightly, and she fell silent.

After a long time,

The anxious mother then murmured sadly,

"I still have the scabbard that my grandfather left me. Using that scabbard... and by taking advantage of the Einzbern's authority, I might have a chance to summon a Servant."

"Then let's do it."

The man tilted his head back, and where his wife couldn't see, a cold glint began to flash in his pupils.

Irisviel, for the salvation of all mankind.

I make my own choice.

This is the shortest path to justice.

Therefore,

I will not give up.

……

"The underground realm has indeed been largely conquered; that woman is incredibly fast..."

"However, I have also seized a portion, and with the entire sky territory, this time, the loser will be you."

“This time, I have more cards up my sleeve than you, you dark, underground woman.”

……

"Weather forecast? Gale warning? Why would Fuyuki City issue a gale warning this time of year?"

at dusk,

Many families in Fuyuki City have returned home after a long day of work.

Despite recent gas leaks and terrorist attacks,

But for working people who need to make a living...

It's almost impossible for something that doesn't happen to them to affect their work attendance.

"It only involves strong winds in Fuyuki City and the surrounding area? Are you kidding me? How could there be such weather?"

"Do those guys think we're idiots?"

"What should we do? What if there really is a strong wind?"

"Why not just stay at home... Wait, there seem to be quite a few gas leak explosions lately. Could something unclean have gotten into Fuyuki City?"

While many families were arguing, no one noticed that accompanied by a flood of television and radio audio throughout the city, a wide-area magic spell, imbued with strong suggestion, had begun to take effect.

For someone with magical powers, such suggestions are almost negligible.

But precisely because of this wide-area spellcasting, it is intended to cover all ordinary people.

At first, the residents argued about this illogical matter, but gradually, they began to worry that the strong winds would really come. Thinking about the recent terrorist incidents and gas leaks, a sense of unease inexplicably arose in their hearts.

Has Fuyuki City been plagued by too many disasters lately?

Many people began to have the idea of ​​going to another place to hide away.

As this sentiment emerged, within just a few hours, large numbers of residents began to take to the streets, and various modes of transportation, piled high with luggage, began to leave the city where the storm was about to strike.

……

"Is it a wide-area hint magic? Ordinary magicians wouldn't go to such lengths for no reward. Could it be Rin Tohsaka?"

With Emiya's hearing, he was naturally able to pick up some of the sounds from the city. The hints mixed in those sound frequencies were like a gentle breeze to him, having almost no effect whatsoever.

"Evacuating residents, it seems, is preparation for a major battle."

Emiya gazed at the distant sky; now he could finally observe the strange divine beast circling in the far reaches of the heavens.

"The Bull of Heaven".

"Has she descended as a Rider, Ishtar?"

"However, if it were Ishtar, she wouldn't go to such lengths to notify everyone..."

"There must be someone else who evacuated the people. If we find that person, my guess will be answered."

Opening the Aurora Veil and re-entering Fuyuki City, Emiya quickly used the equipment at hand to hack into the Fuyuki City media network, including the surveillance records of various departments.

quickly,

A clip was found in the surveillance camera of a local official media's conference room.

A blonde girl in formal attire barged into the conference room, abruptly interrupting the meeting.

At first, it seemed that some people tried to come over and ask something, but after the girl let out a clear and rebuking rebuke,

The entire conference room fell silent, and only the blonde girl remained, continuously speaking in the frame.

"Luvia Jean."

"She actually got involved in this. Finnish hounds aren't magicians who care about ordinary human lives."

"...However, I don't need to guess anymore."

"All the questions will be answered once we find this woman."

"What exactly happened between Rin Tohsaka and her? What answer can guide me to the next step?"
