Don't interrupt me at the crucial part, or I'll lose five dollars!
At that moment, Ishtar, Guinevere, and Artoria's eyes lit up, and they instantly realized something.
If the information comes from the future, wouldn't it allow me to know the progress between myself and my master in the future?
They immediately turned their gazes intently to Ilya.
The little girl with white hair and red eyes stuck out her tongue and hid behind Su Mo.
She didn't want to face so many rivals at the same time.
Su Mo didn't care about this small matter. From the very beginning, he had already sensed the Third Law contained within Ilya's body.
For Su Mo now, the perpetual motion machine, a byproduct of the third method, is no longer useful, as its method and rate of energy provision are inferior to those of the second star particles.
However, the essence of the Third Law—the materialization of the soul—still has some use. This is the principle of shaping fantasy into reality, which not only allows the creation of existing gods and heroes, but also the creation of fictional beings.
With the help of this principle, he and the Memory Star God Fuli together are enough to rewrite the world.
However, after much thought, he couldn't find a reason why Ilya had to jump back in time to the present.
After carefully observing this seemingly sophisticated but somewhat crudely conceived time-interference technique, Su Mo couldn't help but speak up.
"Did you sneak off to this time this time on your own?"
If your future self wanted to send a message or offer help to your present self, you wouldn't need to use such crude methods.
"Huh? They found out so quickly!"
Ilya's eyes widened, then she lowered her head in embarrassment.
"As expected of Dad! Ilya just wanted to meet Dad beforehand, so that he wouldn't be snatched away by those philandering cats... cough cough, I mean, my sisters. She really wasn't being naughty!"
"?"
Su Mo was slightly puzzled.
He wasn't unaware of Ilya's meaning; he was just somewhat surprised.
Aside from the Five Elements, the Type-Moon universe doesn't have much value. The only reason to stay here long-term is probably for women.
Will I be this free in the future?
Or will I soon achieve my goal and reach a state where I can completely disregard time?
Shaking his head, Su Mo patted Ilya's little head, temporarily putting aside these complicated thoughts.
"Then let's start with the third method... If I'm not mistaken, your method of altering the timeline is different from mine; it must come from the fifth method?"
"Mmm! This is also the power that Dad taught me. Dad can take it with him later!"
The magical girl Illya nodded excitedly at the thought of being able to perform and teach magic.
211 The Fourth Law? The daughter is a cup that has come to life.
Teaching magic is not a type of magic that is suitable to be performed in public; at least, Ilya would feel a little embarrassed.
Su Mo naturally wouldn't refuse his daughter's small request.
So, using Rin Tohsaka's room, he delved into Illya... and all the knowledge she possessed.
The complete Third Law, the external Fifth Law, and ~a hidden power.
Is this... the fourth law?
Of the five fundamental laws of the Type-Moon universe, she was involved in three of them.
The power contained within Ilya was only slightly beyond Su Mo's expectations.
The Fifth Law is Illya's most superficial power. She was only granted limited rights to use it, and the operations she could perform were limited. At most, she could borrow the power of her future self to fight for her.
Su Mo bestowed this protection upon her primarily to save her life.
Manipulating the timeline to define an era before one's own birth as an era in which one does not exist or is dead, in order to carry out illegal summoning, is a dangerous operation.
For this reason alone, she will inevitably be punished.
The Third Grail of Heaven, the materialization of the soul, is the strongest law that Ilya has mastered, and it is also the root of her spiritual identity.
"Rather than saying you've mastered the Third Law, it's more accurate to say you've woven yourself into who you are using the Third Law!"
Su Mo was slightly surprised to find that they had explored the deepest part of the area.
Ilya's structure is both peculiar and familiar, completely consistent with the structural design of the Skywing species.
If the essence of the Skywing race is a living [Sky Strike], then the essence of Ilya is a living Third Law.
Rather than saying she mastered the third law, the Heaven's Cup, it would be more accurate to say she was the Heaven's Cup incarnate.
Although the reason is unknown, it seems that when my future self created this daughter, he wanted to endow her with a third spiritual intelligence, which is why Ilya was born.
This means that when Su Mo encountered Ilya from the future and successfully explored her structure, he was able to obtain the complete Third Law directly from Ilya without needing to contact the Root.
By simulating the power of the two star gods, Bo Shizun and Fu Li, through the Pantheon, Su Mo successfully recorded all the conceptual models represented by Ilya into his mind within a few minutes, and fully comprehended them with his powerful intangible abilities.
It's safe to say that Su Mo has completely mastered the Third Magic and has become a Third Magician far surpassing the former Winter Saintess.
"The conversion between information, energy, and matter... this is not the principle of salvation at all, and immortality is just a hoax... no wonder both the Winter Saintess and Amakusa Shiro failed; their goals were wrong from the very beginning."
After fully comprehending the essence of the Third Law, Su Mo shook his head.
The infinite energy of the third method can only construct a second-type perpetual motion machine at its highest level, and even that is a limited-range second-type perpetual motion mechanism.
This level of legal reasoning is insufficient even to maintain the cycle, let alone save the world.
No wonder the restraining force itself didn't cause much interference; the goal of the Holy Grail War was impossible to achieve from the very beginning.
“Dad is right! But I don’t know why, after I told Grandpa Ahad about this, he handed over the sovereignty of the Einzbern family to my mother and me, and then he committed suicide!”
As a third-generation being, Ilya naturally understood the meaning behind Su Mo's words.
Recalling what happened when she first descended as a Servant, a slight doubt appeared in her eyes.
Despite possessing extraordinary strength, these things are still too difficult for elementary school students to understand.
"Don't worry about it, he has already completed his mission."
Su Mo shook his head, offering no further explanation.
"The ability to conclude that the Third Law is insufficient to save the world is also a valuable conclusion for humanity."
"Oh!"
Ilya nodded, seemingly understanding.
After mastering the third method, Su Mo continued to explore it in greater depth.
At this moment, he focused on investigating the most mysterious law within Ilya's body, which was also the only thing that surprised him somewhat—the Fourth Law.
Even for time travelers, the Fourth Law remains a very mysterious existence, with no official definition.
All we know is that this is a legal principle that has been hidden for a long time.
The only known information is that all five major magics are related to creation, and even if they are hidden, clues can still be found.
The reason Su Mo was able to discover the existence of the Fourth Law, which even he had never seen before, was mainly because Ilya's original spirit was related to it.
The complete Third Law and the hidden Fourth Law together constitute the spirit of Ilya's birth state.
However, after carefully checking multiple times, even to the point that Ilya herself seemed embarrassed and needed to use the restroom, Su Mo still couldn't find any obvious clues.
Just as people have described, the Fourth Law concealed itself, and even with the help of the erudite Venerable's projection, Su Mo could not find anything unusual.
"strangeness……"
This was quite a rare occurrence for Su Mo.
With his level of understanding, he rarely encountered a situation where he couldn't find the right approach.
"What's wrong, Dad? Do we need to get checked again?"
Ilya looked at Su Mo with moist, crimson eyes. Although she was embarrassed, she probably wouldn't refuse to be examined again if Su Mo asked.
"no need."
Su Mo shook his head.
"I already have a general understanding of the situation; I just need to verify it a little."
When research reaches a dead end, simply questioning your own common sense will likely uncover the truth.
The moment Su Mo realized he had entered a dead end, he sensed a certain possibility.
If he wasn't mistaken, then the fourth law really was just as he thought, a law of wisdom.
The truly great hermit lives in the city, not because they hide themselves, but because the miracles they create are so common that they are subconsciously overlooked.
"Do we still need to verify?"
Upon hearing this, Ilya gave a pitiful look, and her legs went weak.
"This has nothing to do with you. I'm talking about the Holy Grail War."
Su Mo shook his head and told Ilya to lie down comfortably.
"You get some rest, I'm going to the Root to retrieve some magic!"
"Okay! Daddy, come home soon!"
Unlike Rin Tohsaka, Illya, a natural-born mage, was not sensitive to the danger of the Root. She simply collapsed onto the bed, showing no sign of worry.
Outside the door, when Su Mo appeared, Karna and Gilgamesh had already wisely made their way out.
Two top-tier Servants and one spirit form are equivalent to the weight of three ordinary Servants, and the Lesser Holy Grail is immediately filled.
Upon seeing Su Mo appear, Irisviel, still a pure and innocent girl, took the initiative to step forward and present the small Holy Grail prop. She looked at Su Mo with evasive eyes and mustered up her courage to ask him with concern.
"Lord Su Mo, how is Ilya now?"
Before even experiencing love, Irisviel summoned her daughter in the Holy Grail War and told her that she would become the man before her as his wife or maid. Irisviel initially refused.
However, Su Mo's appearance was exactly to her aesthetic liking, and she couldn't bear to give up Ilya's cuteness, so she "had no choice" but to compromise and acquiesce to the young man in front of her.
"It's nothing, she's just a little tired."
