Zongman: Picked up Medea at the beginning

"But it doesn't matter. You are now a member of the God Group, so if someone really comes to cause trouble, we will not stand idly by."

Roland planned to make the name of the gods famous in the multiverse, so it would be very strange if no one knew about it in his own world.

That's why Roland arranged for Illya, Iskandar, and Bazette, and even Matou Shinji's foreshadowing was prepared for this purpose.

The main object of Qiu Lin's teaching is actually Emiya Shirou. As for Matou Shinji, it is enough for him to master some of his family's magic and have some martial arts to protect himself.

Roland had already asked Baimao to arrange things, and before leaving Fuyuki City, he also left some business models and operating models that he knew to Shinji Matou.

Then it's up to him next.

It would be too troublesome to do it myself, but if I let him do it, it would be the best use of it.

And when the business develops to a certain scale, the name of Shenqun should also spread. By that time, we should be able to reach the financial devil.

Roland planned to use the twenty-seven ancestors of the Dead Apostles as stepping stones for his own group of gods.

However, actively looking for trouble with the ancestors would easily cause them to band together. By then, it would be a bit troublesome to use the current combat power to compete with the intricate network of relationships of the grouped ancestors.

Especially Elquet. If this White Princess existed in the form of a weapon and participated in the fight, then even if Zhu Yue and Gaia were not counted, she alone would be very difficult to deal with.

After all, Roland had seen it in the game. This White Princess could turn into a gigantic giant of light after going berserk. It would be uneconomical to fight her with real swords and guns.

But if an ancestor comes to me and uses it as a stepping stone... then there will be no problem.

Even for those who actively come to cause trouble, it’s okay to be a little bit excessive.

After all, although Matou Shinji has a talent for business and management, it would be more convenient if he could just grab the financial devil, Vanphem, one of the 27 ancestors of the Dead Apostles, and his huge financial empire~

"They can't be considered enemies..."

Aozaki Touko said this, and then told Roland in detail about the Kyuubi no Tori built by her sister and Azuma, and her own Galan Hall.

After Roland listened to Aozaki Touko's detailed explanation, he slowly figured out the plot about the Night of the Magician, the Realm of the Sky, and even part of Tsukihime.

"If we compare the magic societies..."

"The Fifth Magician and the modern witch founded the association. The current head of the Tono family, the last heir of the Asagami family, and Wu Jing's twins are among the members of the association. The power of the Tono family has probably been taken over by them. And Asagami's branch family, Asagami, has probably been taken over by them as well."

"In this situation, they have money, spiritual veins, and manpower, while you..."

Roland sorted out the current situation, then glanced at Aozaki Touko with a subtle expression.

"Are you really serious about developing the magic society?"

When Aozaki Touko heard Roland say this, she refuted in a low voice, although her voice was not loud.

".～Of course I did. Look, I bought an abandoned building to build a magic workshop. After that, I studied magic and did missions to make money for magic research. But I also took in a disciple to develop the magic club. I also participated in the Holy Grail War and spent a lot of money on buying holy relics."

"And Ryougi Shiki of the Yoji family is also under my care. If Ryougi Shiki wakes up, she will be directly crowned as the head of the Yoji family. I have taken care of her for so many years, how can she not join when the time comes?"

"As long as she joins, it means that the Liangyi family is on my side."

Orange's words sounded unconvincing.

But in fact, Roland knew that if things really developed this way, after Ryougi Shiki woke up, Aozaki Touko would really have drawn an ace.

As long as Ryougi Shiki awakens the Mystic Death Perception Eyes, then even without considering the Root Style, she will become a very outrageous existence in the struggle between magic societies.

After all, in addition to the dead line, she can also see the dead spot, and at the most outrageous time, she can even see the dead spot of the air.

And because of the existence of the Root Style, she can use the Death Perception Eye without burning her brain.

If you change to the other one with the Death Eyes, your brain will be burned out if you use it even a little bit, and that will be a big problem.

And if the Root Shiki, that is, the real Ryougi Shiki rather than Shiki's personality, were to come out, Roland would remember her battle record very clearly.

There's not much else to say, except that in FGO, she appeared for only a short time before she was in a chase with the world's most famous Avenger, and she almost killed him with a flying knife.

She and Ai Aotian, who is obviously a modern magician but can easily use magic from the Age of Gods, is immune to Hassan of Serenity's poison, can convince the alchemist who developed the Philosopher's Stone just by talking, and even possesses power himself, are simply bugs among modern people.

Then Gaia and Alaya will not be repaired and will remain.

It's simply the treatment of world aristocrats.

The British cried with envy when they saw it.

With this thought in mind, Roland and Aozaki Touko walked to the door of the hospital where Ryougi Shiki was. Roland did not refute Aozaki Touko's words, but just agreed with her casually.

"Okay, let's go. Since you have such a plan, let's go and wake up Ryougi Shiki first."

....

9. The Challenge from the Faraway Bird

It can be seen that Aozaki Touko is still taking good care of Ryougi Shiki.

On the top floor of the hospital, the floor of the luxury ward, walk to the left, at the end of the corridor, the ward here has been decorated with special suggestive magic by Aozaki Touko, Ryougi Shiki is among them, and she also left a considerable number of dolls here.

These dolls usually work in the hospital as normal people, and also take care of Ryougi Shiki.

"Since I confirmed that the doctors at the hospital couldn't do anything about Ryougi Shiki's condition and couldn't wake her up, I made this plan. Fortunately, Ryougi Shiki doesn't need much care. She entered a very special state a few years ago. It's as if there is an endless power that keeps her alive, so she won't die even if she doesn't eat or drink."

"And her condition is different from that of a normal person. She is in her twenties now, but her body seems to stop aging when it reaches her twenties. From that time on, this task, which was originally just a commission plus some personal considerations, became different for me."

"If she never wakes up, I plan to take care of her for a hundred years or even longer, and then see if she is really immortal."

Aozaki Touko was telling Roland about Ryougi Shiki's situation, and Roland nodded after hearing her say that.

"She is indeed a good seedling."

Roland gave such an evaluation, which made Aozaki Touko look at Ryougi Shiki a few more times.

Members of the God Group like Aozaki Touko knew that joining the God Group required qualifications, just like Illya. Before she became the third magician, Roland never invited her to join the God Group until she achieved the third magic.

Roland didn't say what the specific conditions were, but Aozaki Touko looked at the group of gods and found that they were either magicians, fantasy species, or heroic spirits. The worst one, Bazette, was also known as one of the strongest designated executors of the seal in history and an inherited bacteria preserver who could use and create special costumes.

Then I thought that those who joined the group of gods could become gods like Altria because of a transformation.

Aozaki Touko judged that the qualification for joining the group of gods should be having achieved some kind of accomplishment or having created some kind of legend.

After all, she still remembered that when Roland learned about the special semi-fusion state of Toosaka Rin and Ishtar 137, he said that Toosaka Rin was able to join the group of gods because of the help of the goddess Ishtar.

As for Bazette, it’s probably because she is the inherited bacteria keeper.

After all, the power of the inherited bacteria protector comes from blood.

The mysteries of the Age of Gods spread like a virus among such families, to the point that even someone like Bazett can now create that extremely special ceremonial item, the Sword of Backlight, simply by dripping blood on ore and then using special technology to keep it underground for a month.

Although accounting for accidents and failures, only about ten can be made in a year, the power of this thing was fully demonstrated when dealing with the Hero King.

Being able to do such a thing, maybe there is something hidden in his blood.

Even if it was just a glory from the Age of Gods, it would probably be enough to qualify.

They are all like this, even if they have achieved a miracle with puppets.

So what is the situation with the two rituals in front of us?

As Aozaki Touko watched Roland walk up to Ryougi Shiki, she immediately thought of what she had learned about the ultimate goal of the Ryougi family when she was investigating the family.

Thinking of this, Aozaki Touko's eyes flickered slightly as she looked at the still unconscious Ryougi Shiki.

Could it be that... the Liangyi family succeeded?

While Aozaki Touko was daydreaming, Roland had already ignited his divinity and began calling Ryougi Shiki's name.

"Ryougi Shiki, would you like to sign the contract?"

There are now more than a dozen gods in the group, so Roland has seen all kinds of situations.

The situation of Ryougi Shiki is different from that of Toosaka Rin and Ishtar, so there is no need to specifically talk about the awakening ceremony. It will be enough to just say that Ryougi Shiki is awakened.

This is consistent with the situation of Baimao.

There will be no two-person ritual, that is, the root ritual, and it will directly become a human format, which is the situation of the two-person ritual from the god in the normal name.

Following Roland's voice, Ryougi Shiki opened her eyes.

But she didn't sit up immediately. Instead, Roland felt that with her as the center, pure darkness began to spread out in all directions. In an instant, only himself and Ryougi Shiki, who was lying in the darkness, were left there.

Only then did she sit up, and then looked at him with a look that was hard to tell whether it was calm or gentle.

"You're the one who was awakened. I thought it would be Shiki who was awakened, so before I came here, I was thinking about how to convince her."

Hearing Roland say this, Ryougi Shiki smiled slightly and turned his gaze to Roland.

"I can see... And you even brought ice cream, strawberry flavored at that - it seems you know more about style than I thought."

Roland spread his hands.

"So now you're out, how about some ice cream?"

Roland took out the box of strawberry-flavored ice cream he had brought with him, and Ryougi Shiki took it naturally, then opened it skillfully and took a bite.

"taste good."

Roland was not in a hurry. He just waited for her to finish her ice cream before speaking to her.

"How about it, do you want to join my group of gods?"

Ryougi Shiki stared at Roland for a while, and then her eyes, which had always been gentle, changed for the first time. But it was not a bad change. Instead, it flickered slightly, as if she had a little expectation.

"...I didn't expect that I couldn't find out any information about the group of gods you mentioned. It seems that your group of gods is just like you, mysterious beings whose origins and details cannot be revealed at all."

At this moment, Ryougi Shiki already possesses the Death Perception Eyes.

She is the product of a simulation of the root, an individual who is supposed to sleep until death, so she is connected to the root and is an omnipotent wish-granting machine, and she should also be able to understand what is flowing out of the root.

But she couldn't understand Roland.

Her magic eyes could not see any dead lines or dead spots on Roland's body.

In her eyes, Roland is [ ].

And unlike herself, it is the real [ ], without the slightest trace, as if... he is not an existence flowing out from the root.

However, Ryougi Shiki rejected this possibility in her mind as soon as she thought about it.

After all, everything in this world flows from the root.

If we talk about existence beyond the root, perhaps those Outer Gods can be considered.

But Roland is obviously different from those Outer Gods.

interesting.

There is nothing in this world that Ryougi Shiki would find interesting.

But Roland is different.

So...

"Okay, I'll join."

Ryougi Shiki gave the answer, and then Roland's group of gods became 13 people, and he also had one more chance to draw the lottery.

And the moment she agreed, Ryougi Shiki's body, which had some problems due to lying down for many years, immediately recovered to its peak condition.

As the conversation ended, the world gradually returned to its original state.

The darkness faded away, and only Roland could hear the voice left by Ryougi Shiki.

"If you need anything, please wake me up and I will respond to you. As a reward, please help me take care of Shiki. After all, although you are different from me, you should be easier for her to like than others."

"Ori is dead, and now only Shiki is left. If you were here, she wouldn't be so worried."

"please."

As the sound ended, the darkness completely dissipated.

Ryougi Shiki, or the Root Shiki, has fallen into a deep sleep again.

However, Shiki, that is, Ryougi Shiki and Aozaki Touko, did not think there was anything wrong with all this - in their opinion, Roland had just woken up Ryougi Shiki, and then Ryougi Shiki woke up, and she accepted Roland's invitation before she even opened her eyes.

Everything that just happened did not appear in their memory, even the ice cream box that just appeared was gone.

It was as if everything that just happened was just an illusion.

Ryougi Shiki looked at the world with her eyes, and then, without knowing how long she had been asleep, she discovered that the world... had changed!

In her eyes, the world was full of blood-red lines, and each of these lines exuded a cold, bloody aura, making her hands and feet cold and her hair stand on end, just like an irritated cat.

She felt as if she was looking directly at death!

If you dig deeper into these lines, you can even see that objects and life are being cut apart behind these lines.
