Yu Tohsaka quietly closed her eyes, her mind filled with countless thoughts.
He couldn't fully grasp Tiamat's loneliness, but as a transmigrator, Tohsaka Yuu had experienced something similar.
When he first transmigrated to this world, a sense of alienation and panic, as if he didn't belong here, filled the depths of his heart, and his family was also broken.
When he was at his most desperate, it was Tokiomi Tohsaka who adopted him.
Although the man only valued his 'magical talent', for Yu Tohsaka, this favor was something he would remember for a lifetime.
Yu Tohsaka quickly gathered her thoughts and turned her gaze to Tiamat.
Perhaps it was because of his experience of time travel that he resonated with Tiamat, not only out of reverence for the creator goddess, but also with a more complex and indescribable emotion.
Yu Tohsaka took a deep breath and slowly exhaled, having already made up her mind.
He looked up at Tiamat: "I want to choose the second method."
Tiamat was clearly taken aback, a hint of surprise flashing in her ruby-like eyes, which then turned to worry.
She quickly wrote in her notebook: "Are you sure? This might not be a good thing for you..."
Yu Tohsaka nodded: "I'm sure."
Tiamat looked at him quietly, a strange light appearing in her eyes for the first time. She seemed to want to confirm again, but when she saw Yuuto Tohsaka's firm gaze, she finally nodded gently.
Then, she parted her red lips slightly and said, "Then close your eyes..."
This was the first time Yu Tohsaka had heard Tiamat's voice so clearly. It was no longer a simple 'Aaa', but rather smooth and melodious words, like a song coming from the deep sea, both ethereal and gentle, yet undeniably compelling.
Yu Tohsaka instinctively closed his eyes. Just then, he suddenly felt a soft touch on his lips, followed by a powerful and warm energy that instantly surged into his body.
Like a flame igniting in the darkness, the magic circuits within Tohsaka Yu's body were instantly awakened. A powerful and warm energy surged into his entire body, a feeling that was both painful and pleasurable, as if his whole being was being reshaped.
Before she could even savor this strange sensation, Tohsaka Yu suddenly opened her eyes.
What came into view was a gentle and exquisitely beautiful face.
Tiamat leaned forward, gently placing a hand on the boy's shoulder. Their noses touched lightly, and Tohsaka Yu vaguely seemed to smell a peculiar sweet fragrance, reminiscent of the primordial ocean, the cradle of life.
dong dong!
At that moment, Yu Tohsaka froze, staring blankly at Tiamat, feeling her heart pounding violently in her chest.
Damn it, he should have thought of this sooner. Magic is equivalent to the second life of magicians and even heroic spirits. Their blood and other fluids are filled with rich magic.
So... how can one bestow magic upon others?
The ritual of exchanging magic power... sounds quite sophisticated, but it can actually be accomplished using a very primitive and ancient method.
In the instant the magic intertwined, Tohsaka Yu was completely unaware that the special magic was flowing into his magic circuits. At that moment, he only felt dizzy, and then a thought popped into his mind.
So fragrant and soft...
Volume 1: Chapter 12 Tohsaka Yu's Jewel Magic
The moment their lips parted, Tohsaka Yu felt her mind go blank, leaving only the soft, warm touch and the faint, sweet fragrance lingering at the tip of her nose, like the ocean at the beginning of life.
He opened his eyes abruptly, meeting Tiamat's ruby eyes, which held a hint of shyness yet were filled with concern.
The Mother Goddess of Creation seemed slightly uncomfortable with the direct method of magic transfer just now, and her cheeks flushed slightly.
“Aaa…” she murmured, her meaning unclear, as if checking on Tohsaka Yu’s condition.
Before Yu Tohsaka could respond, an unprecedented surge of immense magical power flooded into his parched magic circuits like a burst dam.
This power was warm and vast, carrying the rhythm of the primordial ocean and the sacred aura of creation. It not only instantly repaired the circuits damaged by the forced summoning, but also seemed to be carrying out a profound transformation and sublimation.
In that instant, Yu Tohsaka felt as if his consciousness were connected to an endless deep blue ocean. He could clearly feel Tiamat's joy, worry, and the loneliness that was hidden deep in her heart and transcended eternity.
Just then, a pale blue light screen quietly appeared before his eyes, clearly displaying several lines of system notifications:
[Warning: Deep synchronization of host magic circuits detected...]
[Collaboration Target: Beast II - Tiamat]
[The basic structure of the magic circuit is being rewritten... Rewriting complete.]
[Congratulations, host! Your magic circuits have been upgraded to the [Magic Circuits - Tiamat Version], significantly enhancing your magic affinity and capacity, and naturally imbued with a faint divine quality of the [Returning Beast].]
Immediately afterwards, the text on the screen changed, and a deep blue personal interface appeared before Tohsaka Yu's eyes:
【Name: Tohsaka Yu】
【Strength: E】
【Durability: D】
Agility: D
[Magic Power: A+]
[Lucky: B]
[Territory Construction: C]
As a magician, one can build workshops that are advantageous to oneself.
[Props made: C]
They can create magical artifacts, and are especially skilled at crafting items related to gem magic.
[Divinity (Sign of Tiamat): E-]
Because of the deep connection established with the Mother Goddess of Creation, she gained a slight degree of divinity, which gives her a slight resistance to divine attacks, and makes her more easily perceived by divine beings.
【Gem Magic: B】
The Tohsaka family inherited magic, and they displayed a high level of talent, excelling at using gems to store and release magical power.
[High-speed chanting: D]
The ability to shorten the spellcasting time, a result of learning from the Clock Tower.
【The Primordial Sea's Favor: A】
Blessed and connected by the creator goddess Tiamat, her mana regeneration speed is increased, she has higher resistance to mental interference, and can slightly draw upon the power of the 'Sea of Origin'. (Passive effect: Significantly increased attractiveness to most older members of the opposite sex)
[Noble Phantasm: Mom—!!! (B)]
It consumes a large amount of magic power and summons Tiamat's spirit to descend. Each use places a huge burden on the magic circuits.
Yu Tohsaka stared in disbelief at the status panel that had suddenly appeared.
Strength, endurance, and agility are still at the standard magician level; these are almost negligible.
A lucky B... that's not bad, anyway, as long as it's not an E.
But what's with that A+ magic power?! That's practically top-tier Servant magic power! Also... what's with the parenthetical note at the end of the "Favor of the Primordial Sea" skill?!
What shocked Yu Tohsaka the most was that his magic circuits had now been directly named "Tiamat" and were also imbued with the faint divine qualities of the "Returning Beast".
That kiss brought far more than just a replenishment of magic; it was a change that was almost a change in the very essence of life. The connection between him and Tiamat had penetrated to the deepest part of their souls and magical circuits.
As Yu Tohsaka felt the surging, ocean-scented magic within her body, and the invisible yet incredibly clear connection she shared with Tiamat, her expression suddenly became somewhat subtle.
"It seems like there's really no turning back now..."
Seemingly sensing his complicated emotions, Tiamat gently tugged at his sleeve.
When Yu Tohsaka looked over, a hint of worry appeared in her pure ruby eyes. She picked up her notebook and wrote hesitantly, "Do you regret it? Choosing to establish this connection with me... might make you an enemy of all humanity."
Seeing her cautious demeanor, Yu Tohsaka couldn't help but smile gently: "I told you, I would stand by your side."
These words seemed to touch the softest spot in Tiamat's heart.
An indescribable radiance shone in her eyes—a complex emotion that blended joy, emotion, and the solace that finally came after a long period of loneliness.
"Aaaaaa!"
Tiamat let out a long, joyful sound and embraced Tohsaka Liu Yi 7 million shrimp - (IV) => V III Yu tightly!
Yu Tohsaka felt a sudden darkness before her eyes, and her entire face was buried deep in that familiar yet astonishing softness and warmth.
"Please...please be gentle, I'm suffocating..."
Yu Tohsaka weakly called out in her arms, but Tiamat showed no intention of letting go, so she could only silently enjoy the heavy, warm touch.
As Tohsaka Yu's magic circuits stabilized and "upgraded," this unique aura, which blended the divine nature of human magicians and the primordial sea, spread like an invisible ripple when a stone is thrown into a calm lake, silently penetrating the walls of the Ishtar Temple and permeating the entire Uruk.
……
In Uruk, high up near the Divine Tower, in a secluded workshop.
Merlin, who was leisurely fiddling with some unknown materials and humming an off-key tune, suddenly froze.
The ease and comfort on his face vanished instantly, and his purple eyes, which seemed to see through everything in the world, widened suddenly as he stared incredulously in the direction of the Temple of Ishtar.
"This feeling is... no way?"
As a top-tier magician, a being who is half-human and half-nightmare, Merlin possesses an extremely high level of magical perception, and can even glimpse the present and the future through his "clairvoyance".
Just now, an exceptionally powerful yet incredibly strange divine aura swept through his senses like a tsunami!
The core of that aura undoubtedly belonged to "Mother" Tiamat—that ancient pressure that nurtures all things, encompasses everything, yet carries chaos and a return to the essence, he would never mistake.
but!
To Merlin's horror, this aura was not simply a sign of the "Mother's" awakening, but rather... it was a near-perfect, inseparable deep fusion with another, relatively weaker soul, but one filled with the qualities of a human magician!
It's like... the scent of a mother has found an "anchor point," a "representative" walking among humans!
“That visitor from another world…he and my mother…actually…” Cold sweat beaded on Merlin’s forehead. This was completely beyond his expectations, a development that even his clairvoyance had failed to clearly foresee!
Tiamat's awakening was troublesome enough, but now there's a human deeply bound to her? This is like pouring oil on the flames that are burning humanity!
If not handled properly, this singularity, and even the entire history of humankind, could lead to a completely unpredictable and disastrous outcome!
This is no joke!
"No, we must tell the King immediately!"
Merlin could no longer care about his interesting experiments. His figure instantly transformed into a shower of petals, and he arrived at Gilgamesh's palace at top speed.
A moment later, the magnificent doors of the council chamber of the Uruk Royal Palace were suddenly pushed open.
Gilgamesh was dealing with a mountain of clay tablets when he was suddenly disturbed. He looked up in annoyance, his scarlet eyes fixed on the intruder.
Merlin looked panicked, abandoning his usual elegance, and rushed to Gilgamesh's side, speaking urgently.
"Your Majesty, something terrible has happened!"
Volume 1: Chapter 13 Gilgamesh: Did I go too far?!
The council chamber of the Uruk Royal Palace was brightly lit.
Gilgamesh looked slightly tired on his throne.
He put down the clay tablet in his hand, leaned on the edge of the chair with one hand, and quietly looked at the white-haired sorcerer below the stage with his scarlet eyes.
"It's rare to see you so flustered and anxious, Merlin."
He paused for a moment, then his languid yet authoritative voice echoed through the palace once more: "You've rushed into the palace in such a hurry, you must have something you urgently want to tell me... Speak, what is it?"
As a court mage of Britain and a near-Grand Caster, Merlin's abilities are beyond question.
Even Gilgamesh rarely saw Merlin show such a panicked expression... although it cannot be ruled out that the other party was acting.
"|羣qi(二)傘04疚琦V傘事`2 Merlin took a deep breath and solemnly explained the various things he had just perceived.
A magician from another world, the appearance of Tiamat, and even the fact that this mysterious magician recently obtained a Tiamat-version magic circuit...
After listening to Merlin's explanation, Gilgamesh surprisingly showed no concern whatsoever. Instead, he narrowed his eyes slightly, seemingly showing more interest.
"Oh? It seems this mysterious magician has gained the favor of 'Mother'? That's quite unexpected..."
Merlin looked at Gilgamesh's utterly calm expression and was momentarily puzzled. He hesitated and asked, "Excuse my bluntness, aren't you worried about this particular variable?"
"This may not be a bad thing."
Gilgamesh smiled faintly: "He may become our only channel of communication with 'Mother'."
You see, Tiamat used to be like a child abandoned in the dark, full of vigilance and hostility towards everything outside, but now she is getting close to a 'human'... This may become an opportunity.
An opportunity for Tiamat to understand 'humans' and even stop fearing them.
