Zongman: Picked up Medea at the beginning

If Illya feels happy, then it doesn't matter if she takes Irisviel as her subordinate god and brings her back - at most she'll just have to make a few more trips. After all, it's not about bringing more people to the next door, but just taking one away, which is not a big problem.

But what if Illya felt even worse?

Roland thought so.

When Toosaka Rin heard Roland say this, the expression on her face became strange.

"I have tried to probe Illya... She herself really wants to see her mother again. After all, the reason why she is different from other androids in Einzbern is entirely because of Irisviel."

"Even Illya feels a little guilty about Irisviel...it's actually good to let her meet him."

"Especially since Irisviel has just been created and has not yet been awakened, given her current state... I think it might be an extra surprise for Illya."

Roland was a little confused when he heard Toosaka Rin say this.

Especially the part where she said Illya felt a little guilty about Irisviel... it was like, this seemed a little different from what he remembered! ?

And what about Emiya Kiritsugu?

Why don't you mention Emiya Kiritsugu at all?

Although Roland was puzzled, he did not show it, nor did he directly confirm what Toosaka Rin said.

"Well, let's put this down first, and then we should go ask Illya for her specific thoughts."

PS: I thought about it and decided that it would be better to cut off Kiritsugu Emiya here. Since I am going to write about Irisviel, I must cut him off completely. There is a plot in my outline, and if I cut Kiritsugu Emiya to that part, it will be just right.

146. Illya and Irisviel

Toosaka Rin had no objection to Roland's statement.

So the candidates who will go to the parallel world have been temporarily decided as - Roland, Rin, Illya, Bazette, Yuzu and Altria.

There is nothing much to say about the first five, but Roland decided to choose Altria because he remembered that the last time he came back to see Baimao, Baimao told him that Altria felt she was a little free recently.

If Illya doesn't want to go, then take Iskandar.

After all, the scale of the Holy Grail War on the other side is completely different from that of the Holy Grail War.

Iskandar can better play his advantages in a Holy Grail War.

If Iskandar doesn't want to go either, then take Hercules - Hercules is the last choice because he won't say no.

However, Roland had other ideas about the specific candidates who would participate in the Holy Grail War.

But we will talk about this after we meet Alaya and Gaia.

But this is not the top priority right now.

After Roland finished talking with Rin Toosaka, he told Rin to start preparing in advance, while he went to find Illya.

Before meeting Alaya and Gaia, he still had to ask Illya what she thought.

Illya usually stays in the basement of the temple with Medea and Orange, and together they make breakthroughs in the increasingly sophisticated and widely used pseudo-mechanical technology.

Strive to create a real mecha god as soon as possible.

But it happened that Illya was not underground today.

Because after Medea finished discussing relevant issues with Mebius and the others through the God Group Communication, she ran to the God Group's cutting-edge industrialized area to build an industrial chain under the guidance of Velvi.

So she and Orange have been resting these days.

This allowed Roland, under the guidance of Einzbern's android maid, to find Illya in her own bedroom.

To be fair, judging from appearance alone, Illya looks more like a young lady than Toosaka Rin.

Especially after she completed the third method, she grew a little from her original appearance and looked about the same age as Yuzu. When she wore the Einzbern outfit in the snow, she was a combination of beauty and elegance. Anyone who saw her would comment that she was a noble and beautiful aristocratic lady as noble as a gem.

But when Roland found her in her bedroom, although he could see that Illya had done her best to clean up, with Roland's observation skills, he still easily found the untied game discs, potato chip crumbs, and the girl's comics pressed under the magic book...

When Roland saw these things, and saw Illya sitting on the bed with an elegant yet forced smile on her face, he knew that Illya was not the kind of young lady who would usually drink tea and read poetry in the study.

Seeing this scene, Roland walked to Illya's side, then reached out and tidied her hair, which was as flawless as the first snow, making it look less messy at least.

"Okay, at least remember to comb your hair next time... As for the other things, there's no need to hide anything. It's just a personal hobby. At least there's no need to hide it in front of me. I don't care."

As he spoke, Roland also helped Illya pack up the game discs that she had hidden behind her.

He originally thought that since Illya was hiding girls' comics, these were probably some girls' games, but in fact, Illya was obviously a lot more hardcore than he thought.

There isn't a single girl's game, just some highly-rated works on the market.

"You have a good eye for choosing games. There are quite a few here that I like. If you have time, we can play together."

Games of this era are considered old to Roland.

But he did play it.

There were also a few works in it that he quite liked - it was a pity that there were no sequels to these works.

"Really~!"

Seeing that Roland really understood and was not just comforting himself, Illya's eyes lit up, and then she pulled Roland aside to talk about some things related to games and comics.

Roland did not resist this, but basically gave his own opinions.

The two of them chatted like this, and in the process, the android maids came in, cleaned and tidied the room, and then brought some tea and snacks to Roland and Illya, and then Illya changed the subject.

"Roland, you must have something to talk to me about."

Although Illya was very interested in topics about games and comics, she knew very well that Roland would not come to her to discuss these things.

So she took the initiative to change the subject.

And Roland nodded.

"Then I'll be frank - Illya, I've been asking Rin to study the issue of parallel worlds recently. She has also been observing a parallel world, and with the help of Zelrich, she created a dress for us to go there."

"I have some problems, so I need to go to a parallel world to test some things and do something by the way."

"And the timeline over there is different from ours. It's a mutated Fourth Holy Grail War."

"So - Illya, this time we can see Irisviel in the parallel world, do you want to come with us?"

After hearing what Roland said, Illya's expression froze for a moment.

But soon her eyes became firm.

"I'm going!"

Illya gave the answer directly, and then she explained it to him under Roland's gaze.

"You also know that we Einzbern created the Little Holy Grail to participate in the Holy Grail War... But in theory, such Little Holy Grails are all cultivated artificial humans, and I am the only exception."

"And the reason for the exception is because of my mother...Irisviel."

"She was created as a small Holy Grail, and before participating in the Holy Grail War, she made a request - that is, she could participate in the Holy Grail War wholeheartedly, but before that, she wanted to leave something behind, so that even if she died in the Holy Grail War, she would have no regrets."

"And what she left behind at that time was a child she nurtured in her body and gave birth to through normal reproduction."

"That is... me."

“I’ve always felt really guilty about that.”

At this point, Illya sighed.

"After all, from my perspective, I always feel that my mother sacrificed herself for me."

"So even if it's her from a parallel world, I still want to go and see her - even if we are two different people, I still want to do something for her, so I'm going!"

Illya stated her reasons, her eyes became more and more determined, and she gave her answer again.

While Roland nodded, he felt confused.

At once...

Where is Emiya Kiritsugu?

Where did Emiya Kiritsugu go?

If Roland was just a little puzzled when Toosaka Rin mentioned this issue before, thinking that maybe Toosaka Rin didn't mention Emiya Kiritsugu, but now that Illya said this, Roland realized that this was not right - doesn't this have anything to do with Emiya Kiritsugu at all?

And Emiya Kiritsugu definitely exists.

Shirou Emiya also mentioned...

Altria also knew Emiya Kiritsugu.

But on Illya's side, where is Emiya Kiritsugu?

Roland thought about it for a long time and always felt that something was wrong.

And he was not completely clueless about this situation.

Although if it is the butterfly effect, he has no influence on the things here, which is a bit too far-fetched, but if it is the convergence of parallel worlds, then it is still possible...

Roland himself has this ability.

Everyone who comes into contact with him will experience parallel world convergence, but this skill is actually a 5.8 effect brought about by his single existence.

In other words...this effect is not limited to him.

Other beasts may also exist independently with the same effect as themselves.

It is impossible for such a solitary existence to restrain the people around him, because his solitary existence is already the highest level.

But Emiya Kiritsugu is not someone close to him...

So, Emiya Kiritsugu... was he captured by some beast?!

Roland was just guessing about this. After all, his ability was activated passively. It was the first time he saw someone being gathered in a parallel world, and he didn't know what it would look like.

So he planned to go to Emiya Shirou later to investigate the matter a little. If it didn't work, he could even ask Alaya and Gaia - he was a little curious about what the people who were restrained looked like in other worlds, and he also planned to take precautions against it. This time it was Emiya Kiritsugu who was restrained, so there was no problem, but next time it would be uncomfortable if someone he valued and who he didn't have time to get close to was restrained.

As for what if it is not caused by the convergence of the parallel world...

Then he would like to know what happened!

....

147. Emiya Kiritsugu was cut by justice

After learning of Illya's choice, Roland gave the final list of people to go to the parallel world to Rin Toosaka before leaving.

Then Toosaka Rin began to make preparations, and Roland contacted Cu Chulainn on the God Group Communication and asked him to notify Emiya Shirou, and then he went to Emiya Shirou.

The first two people that Roland asked Cu Chulainn to take with him were Shinji and Shirou.

But Shinji is no longer here. He just learned some basic things, and then went to the financial world with Vanphem to do things. Now he is busy dealing with the affairs of the Umbrella Corporation every day and has no time to fight.

On the contrary, when Shirou Emiya is not dealing with some tasks, he always stays with Cu Chulainn to study and train.

Occasionally, when there are some tasks that need help, he will come to Cu Chulainn. Now he is really different from Red A. Instead, he gives people the feeling that he is moving towards the path of being a partner of justice in an orderly manner.

Roland also agreed with this.

After all, it is different from the time when Emiya Kiritsugu was alive. Today's Emiya Shirou is much stronger than Emiya Kiritsugu, plus he has the support of the Umbrella Corporation, Cu Chulainn's occasional help, and after Roland became the king of the other world, he asked Altluce, Elquit and Zelritch to jointly issue a peace decree to the whole world.

Roland needs a stable world environment, and in such an environment, when those truly powerful guys no longer get involved in causing trouble, it is the perfect time for a righteous partner like Shi02ro Emiya to take the stage.

In terms of the management of the Moon World, although Shinji and Shirou are not considered senior executives on Roland's side, they are the two best workers.

"Roland, is there something big going to happen when you come here this time?"

When Roland arrived at the door of Shirou Emiya's house, Cu Chulainn was leaning against the wall. Looking at his appearance, Roland knew that he must have been waiting for a while.

Hearing him say this, Roland knew exactly what he meant, so he could only shake his head helplessly.

"Don't worry. I know you want to go to another world or find an excellent battlefield to fight, but at least for now there is really no good opportunity. Next, we plan to explore the parallel world. This operation is not suitable for you to go, but you can look forward to Chaldea."

When Roland said the first half of the sentence, Cu Chulainn just nodded expressionlessly, but when he heard Roland's last sentence, his eyes obviously lit up.

"Chaldea... I remember that they have already entered the experiment and error correction stage, and it won't be long before the technology is finalized."

"And they should be planning to complete the technology of using spirit particles to transfer back to a certain time point in history... Britain, which Altria has been looking forward to for a long time, is indeed quite interesting."

Roland knew that Cu Chulainn was interested in Britain, but he thought Cu Chulainn's interest was a little too eager, so he didn't quite understand it.

"Are there any rivals in Britain that interest you?"

"what..."

Cuchulain smiled.
