Crossover Anime: Picking up Medea at the Start

She quickly learned all the family magic tricks her father had her learn, and even mastered several other systems as well.

She mastered all the manners of a young lady and the refinement of a lady at a very young age.

She never worries her family about her studies, and she handles her social life perfectly as well.

Moreover, with her outstanding appearance, she can easily acquire wealth if she desires it.

Even what might be the very essence of a magician's life's pursuit was simply something she was naturally connected to.

Anyone who reads about her life experiences will almost always exclaim that it's perfect.

That's right.

Sajō Aika is such a perfect person.

However, she herself did not see it that way at all.

She could easily see the future, but she wouldn't do it—because she felt that knowing the future would make her life too boring.

But the reality is that even if she doesn't look at her future, her life will still be boring.

The space of 747 is as empty as a blank sheet of paper.

However, this is not difficult to understand.

Because other people pursue power, wealth, the opposite sex, a sense of accomplishment, or even the very root of it all—they are incomplete.

Only incomplete beings pursue what they do not have, what they lack.

And it will take a lifetime to fill the gap.

But Sajō Ayaka might be the complete version.

She never had anything she wanted all the time, because generally, as soon as she had a need for something, that thing would appear in her hands very quickly.

She never had anything she constantly craved, because if she became interested in something, she would quickly learn about it.

Those who cannot do this will envy her with great enthusiasm.

But after she actually possessed these things, she realized that she no longer had anything she wanted.

There's nothing I want to do.

Everything seemed so natural to her, and even the future could be watched like a script if she wanted to.

Gradually, as life lost its anticipation and surprises, she slowly began to lose herself and her emotions. It was at this point that she felt she had completely become a living ghost.

Whether it's the love from parents, the affection from a younger sister, or the admiration from those around me...

Sajou Aika can no longer feel these things.

Everything about her outward appearance is a facade she concocts and performs through her near-perfect disguise.

And she doesn't feel tired, nor does she feel bad... She just feels that this kind of life is a bit boring, that's all.

So, let's go on a trip.

That's what Aika Sajou thought.

It wasn't because she thought traveling would allow her to see new things, nor because she thought traveling would allow her to meet new people.

The mere fact that traveling would free her from this tedious performance would allow her life to become a little quieter.

That's enough.

So Ayaka Sajo arrived at the first stop of her journey, which was Northern Europe.

After arriving here, she met with Luvia Celinta, the current head of the Edelfelt family, the administrator of her city and a rising star in the world of Nordic magic.

Miss Edelfelt met her and also met her supposedly adopted younger sister, Sakura Edelfelt. It is said that before being adopted, Sakura was also from the Far East region and was a distant relative of the Edelfelt family, the second daughter of the Tohsaka family.

Then, in the city's church, she saw Sister Karen Oldesia, who was supported by the Edfeldt family and thus single-handedly maintained the church.

Although she is a member of the church, she is relatively easy to talk to. It is said that this is because when she was nine years old, her special physical condition was exposed, which led the church to plan to use her as a special tool. However, she was rescued by Miss Luvia, who was in a sudden crisis and then urgently succeeded to the position of Lord of Edelfelt.

After that, he lived under Miss Luvia's care, so he treated magicians more kindly than ordinary church members, since he seemed to be one of the magicians' own.

And it seems that Karen's father was also from the Far East.

However, when the other person's father is mentioned, Karen's usually smiling expression becomes strange, and she says some odd things.

For example—Ms. Sajo, if you learn of a priest named Kirei Kotomine in the Far East, please be sure to tell me.

Then, when Aika Sajou asks Karen for the reason, Karen will give this answer with a smile.

I will kill him.

An ordinary person would probably be curious about the reasons behind this, but if Aika Sajou wanted to, she could probably understand it clearly just by looking at the future.

But she didn't want to.

So she just smiled and nodded at Karen.

And it gave a positive, even encouraging, answer.

Then Ayaka Sajou stayed here for the time being.

She's in a completely new environment, in a completely new region, and has met completely new people... but what Ayaka Sajou has to do is no different from what she did in the Far East.

Same acting skills as always.

It's still just as boring.

With this thought in mind, Aika Sajou lay expressionless on the bed and slowly closed her eyes.

She fell asleep.

And as always, his consciousness followed the magic circuit and arrived at a pure white space.

She lives alone here; no outsiders ever come.

It's quiet here, and she doesn't have to do anything.

And staying here until waking up is how Aika Sajou has slept since she was a child.

But this time was different from usual.

As she sat in this pure white space, a door suddenly opened in the void above, and a person walked out of the pitch-black world outside the door and appeared in front of her.

who is it?

For once, Aika Sajou had a question in her mind.

After all, this space has never had a second guest since I was a child.

She considered this space as her own, her true home.

Therefore, Aika Sajou had doubts about this sudden intruder.

Then something even more puzzling happened.

Because generally speaking, once she has doubts about something, she can easily see through the other person's true nature by simply squinting her eyes slightly.

It's not something as simple as a name, background, or age.

Rather, it is information that is more fundamental and traces back to its source.

This allows her to get along well with almost anyone.

If she wants to maintain a fake relationship, she can definitely do it.

but...

Didn't see it.

When Aika Sajou saw the other person, she only saw a blank space in him.

It's as if the other party's essence is [ ], not a real person, nor a half-baked thing like a living ghost, but the real thing, a real ghost.

Are there really people in this world whose essence is [blank]?

Sajou Aika tilted her head, looking very puzzled.

and so.

Although Ayaka Sajou didn't know how long it had been since she had given up acting, she now asked her question with genuine doubt, a rare occurrence for her.

"who are you?"

Upon hearing Ayaka Sajou's inquiry, the other party responded.

He said...

"My name is Roland."

....

60. Planets, Primates, and Origins

When Ayaka Sajou woke up from her sleep, she sat up immediately.

She now clearly remembers everything that happened in the pure white space.

She hadn't felt any surprise or anticipation for anything in a long time.

But when she was talking to that person, she felt these two emotions again, which she hadn't felt in a long time.
