Magical User Aozaki Aoko Case Files

Qingzi didn't explain much. Seeing Chengzi with a tense face and thinking about random things, she wanted to laugh and was so happy.

"But if you are interested in future vision, I know someone I can recommend to you," Qingzi said while stirring her coffee with a spoon. "She is the absolute holder of future vision. It depends on whether she is willing to meet you."

"There are still people like this after the Age of Gods?" Orange was very surprised, because as far as she knew, this level of future vision was called 'clairvoyance', which was undoubtedly the rarest talent among the magicians of the Age of Gods.

"Well, she should be in Guanbuzi City now," Qingzi said after taking a sip of coffee. "She looks like an ordinary old lady. She is called the 'Mother of Guanbuzi'. Her fortune-telling stall is quite famous in that area."

"Forget it," Orange said with a bit of self-abandonment, "I'm not in a good condition to go out alone anyway."

"Qingzi, you have to be responsible," Orange stuffed a piece of fried potato cake into his mouth and said vaguely, "Support me responsibly."

"Otherwise, if I'm caught by my creditors, I'll reveal all your information!"

"That day will never come," Aoko said, "at least not after the two of us arrive at the Clock Tower."

After breakfast, Qingzi took Amber, Jadeite and Orange to her own villa, because Orange had a workshop there and she needed to start teaching the two sisters in the workshop.

Youzhu is busy repairing a robin at home. It is a delicate job and takes a long time.

Aoko also arranged rooms for Amber and Jade in the house here. Of course, the children's furniture has not been in place yet, and it is still arranged in the same way as before, but the two sisters liked it very much after seeing it.

After a long absence, Aoko continued her research and study of magic in the workshop in her house, and initially mastered the art of dissociation.

She has been studying this spell for some time. Although she has not yet been able to master Disintegration, after some preparation she is finally able to use it.

In her own underground magic testing ground, Qingzi plans to use the dissociation technique for the first time to test the performance of this spell.

After a series of preparations, Aoko prepared for the dissociation technique in the form of a magical ritual.

In front of her was a cube-shaped stone, and not far behind the stone was a tied-up rabbit that was unable to move.

Qingzi wanted to test whether her dissociation technique could penetrate obstacles and injure the living target behind.

Before taking action, Qingzi put on a gas mask with a high filtration level. After all, it would be bad if the object hit by the dissociation technique emitted something strange.

"Frange!"

Qingzi chanted a short spell softly, poured the magic power corresponding to the spell position into the prepared spell model in his mind, then extended his right index finger, and a beam of green light shot straight out, hitting the cube-shaped stone in front of him in an instant.

Just like butter melting in a blazing flame, the stone in front of Qingzi's eyes also melted quickly.

She walked forward and carefully examined the place where the stone was originally placed, and found that there was only a pile of powder of unknown composition left on the platform. However, the rabbit in the distance, which was in the same attack path as the stone, was still alive and kicking, without any injury.

Qingzi was a little disappointed. She originally thought that disintegration might be a spell like a directed energy weapon, but now it seems that it is just a single-target spell.

However, the destructive power is indeed huge. It can instantly disintegrate an object within a volume of 10 cubic feet into dust, or cause huge disintegration damage to a creature. This can be said to be a spell that decomposes the target on some underlying principle. It is unlike Aoko's magic bullet magic, which relies purely on magic power to create impact force, light and heat to achieve the killing result.

The casting speed of Disintegration is okay. If she learns the skill of Silent Casting later, then this spell will definitely be more unexpected when used, and it will definitely be more difficult to defend against when attacking others, because after all, the trajectory speed of Disintegration is likely to be the speed of light...

Now that the spell test was completed, Qingzi's six-ring spell slot for today was considered used up. She thought about it, returned to her workshop, and then consumed most of the spell slots and made them into scrolls for storage.

Since he had decided to go to the Clock Tower to settle accounts with the monarch, he should have as much reserves as possible. Even though Qingzi could use the fifth magic to enter a pseudo-invincible state, the life span of the universe could be saved.

Otherwise, it would be difficult to deal with if the Restraint Force became desperate and sent Crown Servant to fight her. Those guys might have some strange things to deal with her.

The study and research time lasted until the evening, and it was getting a little dark. Normally, Qingzi would stay here at this time, but considering that everyone was here, it would not be good to leave Youzhu alone at the Kuonji Residence, so Qingzi decided to let her and Chengzi's cheap dad drive here to pick them up and then send them to the Kuonji Residence.

As for using magic to solve the problem, since all the spell slots were used up in the afternoon, Qingzi's teleportation spell is not so common at the moment, so there is no need to waste an expensive scroll just to get home.

At about six o'clock in the evening, Qingzi and Chengzi's cheap father drove here.

When they walked out of the house and were about to get in the car, Qingzi found that her cheap father was staring at Chengzi intently, and his eyes seemed a little dazed.

"?"

Qingzi was stunned for a moment, then he remembered that he forgot to tell his cheap father about Orange's rejuvenation... Even if he is an ordinary person who doesn't have much contact with the mysterious world, as a father, he must still remember what Orange looked like when he was a child...

Chapter 55 Departure to London

After Qingzi and Chengzi's "persuasion", the cheap father finally stopped worrying about why his daughter, who was so big, suddenly shrunk.

Instead, he chatted with the "four sisters" in the car about some things about Orange's childhood while driving them back to the Kuonji residence.

As for the explanation? What explanation? What rejuvenation?

When it comes to magic, mystery is the key. There’s no need to explain it so clearly!

All in all, Dad reminisces about the past, Aoko and Orange successfully pass the test, Amber and Jadeite get pocket money from Dad, and everyone has a bright future.

Back at the Kuonji residence, Aoko prepared a delicious dinner for everyone. Then, without doing much research and study as usual, she went to bed early.

The next morning, Qingzi meditated and carefully prepared his own rituals based on the situations he might encounter. After breakfast, he took Chengzi and prepared to set off.

"...When you get to the Clock Tower, be careful," Yuzu, Amber and Emerald stood in front of Aoko and Orange and warned them, "The magicians in the Clock Tower are completely different from you. You can't treat them as humans."

"Hmph, don't worry," Orange said sarcastically, "Even if I'm assassinated by those guys in the Clock Tower, nothing will happen to this guy!"

"Hey, Orange-chan, I'm so sad when you say that," Qingzi said with a fake sad expression, "I will never let you get hurt, Orange-chan!"

"...Don't do that, I feel a little sick." Orange turned his head to the other side, not wanting to watch Qingzi's performance anymore.

"Alright," Qingzi said to Youzhu and the two kids, "We won't be gone for long. We'll bring you gifts when we come back!"

---Dividing line---

Qingzi is not worried at all about the safety of flying to the UK.

Because for her, who had a lot of teleportation and door scrolls on her, it was easy for her to take a child away from danger in an instant.

Besides, she also has the ability to fly. In extreme cases, she can even fly across the sea to nearby land in her physical body. Even if it can trap an ordinary magician to death, it cannot kill Aoko. This is the advantage of a magician as a super all-rounder.

And so far, the news that Qingzi completely inherited the fifth magic has not been spread. The outside world only knows that Chengzi plans to go home and fight with her sister in order to retaliate against her sister who stole her magic inheritance rights, but no one knows the result of the snatch.

Although Moonbeong Yongli looks like a member of the Holy Church, he is not a member of the Holy Church because he cannot use any magic or baptismal chants.

The Hotan Church is actually an inconspicuous small church in the Catholic system. There are no personnel sent by the Vatican and it is completely run by local bosses.

As long as it is operated by locals, it will inevitably be influenced by the Aozaki and Kuonji families.

Aoko and Arizuma had previously spent a lot of effort to conceal the fact that she had fully mastered the fifth magic, so that they could take the initiative in intelligence after she arrived at the Clock Tower, and also prevent those flies from the church from bothering her less.

However, this time when she goes to London, she will definitely reveal this information at the right time to maximize her own interests.

Even the information that the shortcut to the source guarded by the Aozaki family disappeared would be leaked. After all, in many cases, it is not the thieves who steal that are afraid of thieves, but the thieves who think about it. Aoko and Touko's grandfather had been attacked by many magicians because of this. These guys were like flies and could not be killed. The old man was very annoyed.

Anyway, the Crooked Core Spiritual Vein is still in the hands of the Aozaki family. Even if the Clock Tower goes crazy and the entire family is mobilized to fight the Aozaki family, Qingzi is not afraid at all because of the geographical advantage of the Crooked Core Spiritual Vein. The only difference is how much loss there will be, and there is no possibility of failure.

Looking at the scenery outside the cabin, Aoko was thinking about how much she could do on this trip to London. Orange had owed too much debt in Europe to deal with her before, and after she solved the clock tower, she would go around Europe again and finish all the troubles that needed to be solved.

In addition to Orange's problem, Qingzi also needs to do two things in Europe.

First, she needs to go to Germany, find the Einzbern castle, and then use the fact that Orange has achieved part of the third magic to win over this family that only has androids left to keep it running.

The legacy of Einzbern is not inherently very attractive to Aoko, but considering her future relationship with Orange, allowing her sister to have the opportunity to come into contact with magic will definitely help Orange resolve her emotional issues, rather than still feeling a little awkward in her heart like she does now.

She didn't know whether Einzbern had already found Emiya Kiritsugu at the end of 1989, but even if they had, it didn't matter. Aoko was not one of those old stubborn conservatives in the Clock Tower. Emiya Kiritsugu's greatest advantage as a magus killer was that he couldn't hurt her at all.

Besides, even if Emiya Kiritsugu and Irisviel have already come into contact, it is not a bad thing. After all, without Emiya Kiritsugu, where would Illya come from?

After all, no matter how hard she struggled, Kiritsugu Emiya's failure was inevitable in her world line. She had long regarded Einzbern and the final victory of this Holy Grail War as a sure thing for herself and Orange. As a half-magician + a grand magician, what could others use to fight against her?

In addition to this matter, Qingzi also needs to go to the Republic of Yugoslavia.

She is determined to reverse all the tragedies in this fucked-up world of Type-Moon, so the girl named Kallen Aldessia is definitely a topic that cannot be avoided.

Considering that during the period when the FHA story took place, Kallen was probably just 15 years old, and her special physique was discovered by the local church when she was 9 years old, she should have been born not long ago at that time, and Kallen's mother Claudia Aldessia had not yet committed suicide.

It was extremely unlucky for Claudia to marry Kotomine Kirei. Not only did she die of depression, but her daughter also suffered a miserable end.

Aoko could easily use her connections in the Wada Church to bring Kallen and Claudia to Misaki.

In this way, Kallen's abused spirit medium will not be discovered by the Holy Church, and Aoko can find a way to remove or seal her ability, allowing this girl with a bad personality and a tragic fate to live an ordinary life.

Besides, Qingzi strongly suspected that her personality was probably a hereditary mental illness, which could be corrected with professional treatment.

Qingzi, who was thinking about the plan, suddenly felt her shoulder sink. Chengzi, who was sitting next to her, had already fallen asleep due to sleepiness, and her cute little head was resting on her shoulder.

Qingzi smiled and teased Orange's face, then asked the flight attendant for a blanket and covered Orange carefully with it.

Chapter 56 Brown Hotel

After sitting on the plane for fourteen hours, Qingzi got off the plane with Orange, who had already slept twice and started to suffer from back pain at a "young age".

After taking a shuttle bus from the airport to downtown London, Aoko took Orange to Brown's Hotel, where they had previously booked a room.

This hotel is located on Albenarle Street in London, surrounded by galleries, high-end restaurants, parks, and various interesting shops.

As a legendary hotel with a history of more than 180 years, whether it is the low-key and luxurious Victorian-style decoration or the polite and thoughtful service staff, it all reveals a strong British atmosphere.

"Oh, I didn't expect you to have such good taste," Orange, who was wearing a cute black dress, said as she shook the hand that was not held by Aoko. "This is the first hotel in London. It's very famous, right?"

Orange is indeed an "old Londoner". After all, she has lived here for two and a half years, and in addition to studying magic, she also hangs out a lot.

"I just picked it randomly," Qingzi said nonchalantly, "I saw it in a travel magazine before, so I made an international call and booked a room on a whim."

"Do you know Lord Byron?" Orange asked Qingzi like a little adult.

"The one who wrote poetry?" Qingzi recalled, "The author of Don Juan and Childe Harold's Travels, right?"

"That's right!" Orange said, "After the poet died, his estate was given by his wife to James Brown, Byron's personal servant."

"This is so surprising," Qingzi asked in confusion, "She gave her husband's entire inheritance to a servant?"

"It's really hard to understand," Orange nodded in agreement, "but this servant really has a good business mind. In addition to the house in Byron's inheritance, he also bought four townhouses on Dover Street and opened the first 'luxury inn' in London in 1837 under his own name, which is the predecessor of this hotel."

"Inn?" Qingzi asked with some confusion, "Is there any difference between it and the hotels we have now?"

"The scale is different," Orange explained, waving his hand, "and the hotel has been sold several times since then, but the buyers have always maintained the style and business philosophy of the hotel, and it eventually became what it is now."

"Besides, this hotel is famous for its 'privacy'," Orange said with a smirk, looking at Aoko, "There are usually many magicians from big families staying here~"

"Oh, our Orange knows so much. I'll reward you with some delicious candy~" Qingzi gently rubbed Orange's soft hair, took a piece of lollipop from her pocket and stuffed it into her mouth, making her speechless for a while.

"Excuse me, ladies, do you have a reservation?" The lobby manager at the hotel front desk asked Qingzi politely in English.

"Yes, Hellenic Suite." Qingzi took out her passport from her pocket and handed it to the lobby manager.
