It's time to improve the strength of the infinite world

Chapter 362 Sakura: Didn’t I join this family?
——The jeweled sword Zelretch.

——The blade is like a multi-faceted gem formed by the condensation of bright stars.

If the design drawing can be truly turned into a physical object, it is foreseeable that it will shine with dazzling light.

A perfect blend of the beauty of gems and the shape of swords.

From this point of view, the name is quite worthy of its name.

One could even say that the name was chosen out of laziness.

But it is precisely this seemingly unintentional casualness that gives this ceremonial dagger a certain mystery and interest, and reflects the designer's full confidence and determination.

The strong are the strong.

A strong man does not become a legend because of his weapons, but his weapons become legendary because of the strong man.

So no matter whether the weapon he uses is named "Soul Reaper" or "Dragon's Breath", or simply "Pink Fluffy Rabbit"...

That doesn't affect the essence of this matter at all.

This is the margin of strength.

………………

"Come and take a look..."

"This has always been the highest priority of the Tōsaka family, and it has been passed down from two hundred years ago to the present day..."

Miss Toosaka excitedly recounted the design of the jewel sword after hastily finding it and spreading it out on the table in the living room.

There was unconcealable excitement in his words, and his voice echoed in the spacious living room.

Her face was obviously a little excited, and her eyes were full of excitement as she was eager to try.

"Strictly speaking, it is just like the Holy Grail War. It is the long-cherished wish of the ancestors of the family. The heads of the Tousaka family have always hoped to complete this task."

"This is... this is the homework left by the master?"

Ying was sitting nearby, her tone full of surprise and emotion, her eyes focused on this invaluable design drawing.

There was a mixture of curiosity and awe in her eyes, as if she had touched the pulse of her family history for the first time.

Because it was also the first time that the girl saw the design drawings of the jewel sword.

This is one of the most important collections of the Tosaka family and a symbol of family dignity and inheritance, with a significance that transcends money and material things.

It was so important that even if Rin wanted to sell the mansion, she would never have any thoughts about it. Even during the most difficult financial period, she never thought about it.

——If it really comes to that……

——Perhaps it is far beyond the description of the word shame.

"Correct."

Miss Toosaka first nodded to Sakura, then looked in the direction of Xia Zhi who was sitting on the sofa opposite.

She seemed to think that the other party might not know much about this, so she added a little reservedly:
"The ancestor of the Tousaka family, Tousaka Nagato, was a disciple of the second magician, Kissia Zelrich Schbain-aug..."

Very reserved indeed.

She just mentioned it briefly and passed it over.

Excessive boasting about the family's historical glory is not only unworthy of praise, but also highlights the decline of the Tousaka family today, making future generations feel ashamed.

Another very important point is...

Although it is said that the ancestor of the Toosaka family was a disciple of the second magician, this title sounds glamorous, but in fact, upon closer inspection, it is a bit far-fetched and almost flattering.

Therefore, even though the Tosaka family has passed down the tradition of "My master, my ancestor, Shubaiin Ogu" from generation to generation, it is only a one-sided expression of respect.

In fact, over the past two hundred years, the family has not had much substantive interaction and contact with the famous second magician and magic marshal.

Therefore, Miss Toosaka, who knew this, naturally would not be so shameless as to make a big fuss about this matter.

"I see, it really is a long-standing tradition..."

The young man nodded seriously and simply agreed.

He naturally knew what was going on.

Tōsaka Nagato was a mediocre student who was rated as the "least outstanding student" by Zelrich, and he was not accepted as a magician or even a magus.

Instead, he met him during the journey, and as a reward for providing him with accommodation, he "taught him a little bit". He was just an ordinary disciple.

Even the homework that was left behind was something that he thought Tōsaka Nagato would never be able to complete from the beginning.

But there is no need to point this out.

After all, he is Rin's ancestor.

He looked down at the design of the jewel sword on the table, pretending to study it carefully, and asked casually, "So, Rin, you want to complete it?"

"If you can, I hope you can help me..."

The black-haired girl with twin ponytails nodded vigorously without hesitation, her eyes sparkling with excitement.

"This design, like the Holy Grail before, is also part of the pursuit of the Tousaka family!"

She has now barely completed one task.

If possible, of course I hope to continue our efforts!

Just think about it, if the tasks that all the successive heads of the Tohsaka family dreamed of completing were realized one after another in her hands, how excited and proud it would be.

It’s just a pity that she also knows the limits of human beings.

There is a huge gap between magicians and sorcerers, not to mention the gap between magicians and magicians.

The gap between the two is like a natural chasm, insurmountable. They are like two completely different species, living in different worlds.

"I couldn't have done it on my own because I didn't understand its theoretical basis, but now it's different..."

Ms. Toosaka stared at someone with a hopeful look, her eyes burning.

"Because you are relatively close to the realm of the second magic in this direction, you must know more and more deeply than I do..."

"If, as you said, you can indeed travel between parallel world lines, then this must be the case... everything you said before is true, right?"

This is beyond doubt.

——If it can be observed, then we can try to interfere;
——If you can interfere, you can try to control it. However, according to this fundamentalism of mysticism, the girl is now unable to even do the first step of "observation" and cannot glimpse a glimmer of the truth.

The same was true for previous generations, which is why they had no way of mastering the design drawings and theories of the gem swords, because they simply couldn't understand them.

Unless something "accident" happens, or there is a "shortcut" to take -

Otherwise, this would probably be an unsolvable problem.

Miss Toosaka was also very clear about this, so when Xia Zhi said that he could move back and forth between parallel world lines on his own, she immediately realized something.

Perhaps he is not as free as the founder, who can move between infinite, parallel worlds at will.

But at least this person took this step...

He is closer to the realm of the second magic than any magician or mortal.

With such a strong hope, Ms. Toosaka couldn't help but ask the other party for confirmation again.

"I don't have any magic, but I can indeed observe the "if" of parallel world lines, and I can see the branches of fate every second..."

The young man nodded in affirmation.

"I knew it!"

Lin instantly let out a long breath, clenched his fists excitedly and waved them!

"That's good, that's enough... Come to think of it, I think your situation is probably caused by the Greater Holy Grail!"

She was probably too excited and couldn't help but make corresponding guesses about the situation during the summer solstice.

"That was originally an attempt made by the magician to reach the root. Theoretically, it is possible to get one step closer to the root, or even half a step closer..."

"You took the risk at the last moment to take the power of the Holy Grail for yourself. This power must have played an incredible role in your actions..."

The same thing looks different to different people.

For Rin, she didn't think that the result of the previous Holy Grail War was premeditated by someone.

From the girl's perspective, it was simply because her most trusted Servant risked his life to turn the tide when she was forced into a desperate situation, and thus turned defeat into victory.

As for the means used, it was probably a treasure or some other unknown ability...

Maybe it's not that I didn't realize some clues, or didn't notice some suspicious points...

——However, under the influence of the absolutely powerful filter and emotions, Lin subconsciously did not think in other directions, but instead repeatedly beautified the incident in his memories.

"The Holy Grail... ahem, that's right, the power of the Holy Grail is very strong..."

Xia Zhi blinked his eyes, then followed suit and said seriously.

"Basically, it can be said that it is because of this enormous power that I have the opportunity to enter this world again."

He first decisively confirmed Lin's guess.

Then, he looked at the design drawing on the table and pondered for a moment:
"Although this may not be able to directly open the 'door' to the parallel world, it may be possible to spy on the 'other side' and interfere..."

"Really?" Miss Toosaka's eyes widened immediately: "Wait, you figured out something now?"

Although I do have high hopes for him...

But this good news came too quickly, it even seems a little unreal...

"I can understand it to a certain extent. This dress seems to be able to reflect the "other side" of the atmosphere full of magic, and then share magic with the parallel world..."

Xia Zhi looked at the design drawing carefully, as if he could see the wisdom and ingenuity of the magic marshal through the paper.

"I feel like there is some idea. If we spend some time studying it, there should be hope."

"Huh, do you have any ideas? That's fine, let's study this next!!"

The black-haired girl with twin ponytails tried very hard to remain reserved, but the smile on her face was still extremely bright.

Even if the other party doesn't guarantee it, they just say there is hope.

However, this also gave her hope that the progress bar would appear.

Seeing this, Xia Zhi curled the corners of his mouth. In fact, he didn't have any ideas, because he had grasped it the moment he saw it.

If he wanted, he could immediately print out a gem sword on the spot, or a hundred, or more...

This pinnacle of magic costume with the second magic as its limited function instantly became a mass-produced model.

Just to avoid scaring Miss Toosaka and allow her to accept it without being too shocked, he took a compromise approach and said he would study it with her.

Of course, appropriate pulling is also necessary.

It helps to improve your impression, doesn't it?

——As for being proficient in PUA, he can always do it naturally with maximum skills.

It was as if he himself needed the design drawings and theories of the gem sword...

But the situation at this moment was cleverly reversed, causing Miss Toosaka to mistakenly believe that she needed his help.

"..."

"..."

However, not everyone is satisfied with this.

Ying, who was sitting next to them, curled her lips and looked at the two of them, feeling as if she was left behind.

Didn't I join this family?
She silently raised the cup and took a sip of tea, then looked at Rin who was very happy, thought for a moment, and then spoke:

"Sister, the cost of mage research must be enormous..."

"Especially for a top-level gift like this, it will definitely take a long time and..."

After a brief pause, Ying continued to emphasize gently and tactfully: "——and a huge amount of funds, right..."

"..."

"..."

Wait, huge amounts of money…?
Hearing Sakura's considerate reminder, Miss Toosaka's bright smile froze.
