The sky was now just a clear blue.

Looking at the barren land, Shirou felt a strange sense of relief, as if he had been freed from some kind of constraint.

But he knew that fate had never left him.

There is still a long way to go before we can truly break free from these constraints.

……

After Shirou helped Ariel recover, she immediately returned to the student council room, reunited with Luke and Fitz, and recounted what had happened after they boarded the aerial fortress.

During the process, Ariel deliberately concealed many details of her contact with Shirou, only stating that she could not yet gain the approval of Ankylosaurus and needed to put in more effort.

Luke and Fitz were naturally very concerned about this and both expressed their support for each other.

After returning to his blacksmith workshop, Shirou first encountered a drunken Nanase. It seemed that Nanase had started drinking to drown his sorrows because his research had not made any progress, so Shirou had to spend time taking care of him until he calmed down completely before leaving quietly.

He later found Rudeus and discovered that Rudeus was teaching Juliet magic.

Although he didn't really want to bother them, Shirou still called Rudeus out, and the two of them went together to the house on the outskirts of the magical city of Sharia to prepare to welcome his two younger sisters.

Before they even reached their destination, Shirou spotted several familiar figures in front of the post station.

There was a blonde little girl and a red-haired little girl, and standing next to them was a woman with long blonde hair and elf ears.

"Ok?"

The moment the blonde elf woman saw Shirou and Rudeus, she immediately showed a concerned expression.

Shirou went over immediately and heard the sound.

"It's all Noren's fault for taking the wrong route, that's why it's so late!"

"Didn't Aisha also say that going that way wouldn't be a mistake?"

"What are we going to do? All the hotels are closed now! It's so cold, and we'll have to spend the night outside!"

"If we're being honest, the one who said we had somewhere to stay tonight so we didn't need to go to a hotel was clearly Aisha!"

"After all, it's not easy to meet, so of course I want to spend more time with my brother."

"...There's no need to care so much about that kind of guy."

The blonde girl and the red-haired girl are arguing with each other.

Shirou glanced at them and recognized them almost instantly: Noren and Aisha, his two younger sisters.

But the blonde elven woman beside them was clearly a complete stranger.

"You two little ones, calm down. We've found the person we're looking for."

The blonde elf woman looked relieved the moment she saw Shirou. Even though the two were complete strangers, she seemed to have already recognized Shirou's identity.

She immediately approached Shirou and introduced herself: "Hello, I am Alina Lige, Paul and Senis's former teammate. You must be Paul's two sons, Shirou and Rudeus."

"Yes."

"Yes, um...yes."

Compared to Shirou, Rudeus was very hesitant and stammering, completely avoiding looking at Elina Reese, as if he had developed a phobia of women.

Shirou was somewhat worried, but that wasn't the time to think about it.

Seeing his two younger sisters arrive safely, Shirou breathed a sigh of relief and was about to take them to the house that had already been prepared.

Just then, Alina Lige suddenly spoke up: "Although this is sudden, I'm not only here to bring Norren and Aisha over, but also to tell you something important."

"important things?"

"Paul has located Senis deep within the labyrinth of the Becallit continent. The exploration has already begun, but considering the difficulty of conquering the entire labyrinth, Paul hopes you can go and provide assistance."

Upon hearing Elina Reese's words, Shirou agreed almost without hesitation:

"Okay, I'll go right away!"

Chapter 323 God and Man: I suggest you don't go to the continent of Pekkarit, Shirou!

Upon hearing from the elf named Elina Lige that Paul had found Senis's whereabouts, Shirou had no more hesitation and decided to go and meet up with Paul.

After all, everything he has done has been to protect the people he wants to protect.

Needless to say, Senis was also very important to him.

Shirou must rescue the other party no matter the cost.

However, Elina Liz didn't seem to be in such a hurry. Although she suggested asking Shirou and Rudeus for help, she proposed taking care of Noren and Aisha first before heading to the continent of Pekkarit.

Shirou could not understand this approach; he could not possibly leave Senis, who was in danger at any moment, unattended.

Alina Lige offered an explanation for this.

It turned out that Paul and his companions discovered that Senis was trapped in a labyrinth on the continent of Becalet, and had become the core of the labyrinth.

According to the investigation, the maze will swallow those who accidentally enter as its core. Those who become the core of the maze will not encounter great danger, but their bodies will be bound and they will not be able to escape.

Because of this intelligence, Paul and his team were less nervous and even had time to let Alina Lige come to Shirou and Rudeus for help.

After learning all this, Shirou relaxed and began to think about his two younger sisters.

Having already made preparations, Shirou smoothly brought Norren and Aisha to the house he had previously purchased. However, due to the haste, Shirou had not yet had time to hire a professional maid to take care of their daily lives, and the house was completely empty.

Even so, Norren and Aisha did not seem to have any intention of complaining.

Aisha showed great excitement and was very satisfied with the new environment. She even changed into the maid outfit she had bought at the Xilong Palace on the spot, ready to become a formal maid in this house.

Shirou naturally didn't want Ai Natsu to be his maid, but to his surprise, she insisted on doing so.

Because the other party was too determined, Shirou had no choice but to agree.

"Hehe, I like you the most, brother!"

Upon learning that she was allowed to work as a maid, Aisha excitedly rushed over and ran into Shirou's arms without any hesitation.

In contrast, Noren sat on the sofa with his lips pressed tightly together, saying nothing.

Ever since they met, she had maintained this vigilant attitude towards everything around her, even when she met Shirou.

Shiro knew that Noren lacked a sense of security because he had left Paul.

Therefore, he didn't rush to express his goodwill, but instead asked, "How is Paul doing lately? Is he alright?"

"Yes, Dad has been drinking very little lately."

"That's really nice."

Upon hearing that Paul rarely drinks, Shirou smiled, indicating that Paul was no longer running away from reality and had decided to do everything in his power to protect his family.

This made him even more eager to get to Paul's side, fight alongside him, and complete the mission of saving Senis.

Of course, he also knew he couldn't rush things; he had to first arrange Noren and Aisha's life in the magical city of Sharia.

"Does Paul have any plans?"

Shirou looked at Elina Reese beside him.

The blonde elf in front of him was a very beautiful woman with a great figure. Recalling the previous Kyrie Irwin, Shirou couldn't help but suspect that Paul also had some special relationship with her.

But without evidence, it's not appropriate to speak casually.

Alina Lige, unaware of his thoughts, quietly said, "Paul didn't say anything in particular. He just said that if it were Shirou, he would definitely have made arrangements."

"That guy really trusts me."

Shirou sighed. He didn't know if Paul trusted him too much or was simply shifting the responsibility onto him.

He then began to think about what Noren and Aisha should do next.

The best solution would undoubtedly be to send both Noren and Aisha to the magic university.

Although it is called a university, Lanoa Magic University actually has a campus for lower grades and is willing to enroll some younger students.

Of course, this matter still needs to be discussed with Norren and Aisha themselves.

After Shirou made the inquiry, Noren agreed without hesitation.

She seemed to have always planned to go to school, so Shirou didn't need to persuade her at all.

Meanwhile, Aisha showed little interest in going to school; she seemed to prefer staying by Shirou's side as his maid.

It was obvious that Shirou couldn't keep Aisha by his side. He was going to the continent of Becarit to support Paul, so there was no way he could keep Aisha by his side.

So Shirou almost forced Aisha to go to La Noa Magic University.

Essentially, this is like busy working parents sending their children to kindergarten so that there is a place where someone can take care of the children and they don't have to worry too much.

After dealing with his two younger sisters, Shirou finally had time to report to those around him that he was going to the continent of Beccarit.

Needless to say, Rudeus was even planning to travel with Shirou.

Of the remaining people, Shirou went to the blacksmith's workshop first to explain the situation to Nana and Juliet.

Neither of them had any objections.

Nana didn't care what Shirou was going to do, as long as he didn't disturb her research. Juliet also obediently said that she would wait for Shirou to come back.

It's worth mentioning that the Seven Stars indicate that Shirou can use the power of the magic circle to quickly reach the continent of Pekkarit.

Shirou was very grateful when he heard the news.

Because if one were to travel to the continent of Becallit normally, it would take at least half a year, if not one or two years, to arrive.

Conversely, if a magic circle is used, it can be reached in less than a day.

After learning about the magic circle, Shirou relaxed and stopped acting so anxious, explaining the situation to people he knew one by one.

This included Principal Genus, Percius the Ankylosaurus, and Ariel, among others.

When he told Ariel about it, the princess tried to provide financial and equipment support, and even planned to lend Fitz to Shirou.

Shirou naturally rejected these offers.

He had made far too many preparations to save Senis, and did not want to rely on anyone's assistance, intending to rescue Senis by his own strength.

……

Shirou quickly made all the preparations and immediately found Elina Liz, ready to travel to the continent of Beccarit together.

On the night before his agreed departure, he fell asleep and encountered a god-like being, a dream he hadn't had in a long time.

It was in that pure white world again.

The god appeared before him in a pixelated form, still sporting that smug smile.

"Why have you come looking for me now that things have come to this?"

Shirou looked at the god in confusion, assuming that the other already knew everything, and couldn't help but ask, "Could it be that the Dragon God is on the continent of Pekkarit?"

"It's nothing that important, I just wanted to see you, is that not allowed?"

"I told you I wasn't interested in your jokes."

Shirou frowned, extremely dissatisfied with the god's reaction.

The god realized it was best to avoid joking around, so he quickly said with a serious expression, "I suggest you don't go to the continent of Becallit."

"Didn't I tell you I didn't want to hear any of your opinions?"

"Oh dear, but this time it's truly a sincere suggestion."

The god looked completely innocent. "We've known each other for so long, I really don't want you to jump into a fire pit," he said.

"What's the meaning……"

"It means that if you go to the continent of Becallit, it will cause very bad consequences."

"What did you say?"

Upon hearing the words of the god, Shirou frowned.

He was clearly unwilling to accept the other party's explanation, because he had already made up his mind to save Senis, and it was impossible for him to change his mind at this point.

Moreover, the fact that the deity specifically chose this time to say such things to him makes one very suspicious of the other party's intentions...

After thinking it over, he could only ask, "Could you tell me what the specific consequences would be?"

"I'm sorry, I can't go into too much detail. After all, I'm a god among men, not a prophet."
