Magical User Aozaki Aoko Case Files

In addition to the adoption, the head of the Edelfeldt family also mentioned some recent situations of Tohsaka Tokiomi.

For example, Toosaka Tokiomi seems to have recently had a conflict with another local magic family in Fuyuki, the Matou family. Toosaka Tokiomi personally went to the Matou family and made a big fuss, and the relationship between the two sides has now become very tense.

Aoko was not surprised by this matter. It seemed that the letter she had asked Orange to add some extra information to had a very obvious effect. At least this way, the "honest man" Toosaka Tokiomi would not be fooled by Matou Zouken and hand over Sakura again.

Chapter 85 The Beginning of College Life

On April 1990, 4, Aozaki Aoko came to the Komaba campus of the University of Tokyo with her admission letter and student ID.

Unlike universities in countries on the western continent, freshmen at the University of Tokyo receive a unified general education at the Komaba campus in the first two years of their enrollment. In the third and fourth years, they will go to other campuses to study professional courses based on their major choices.

General education courses include various regular public courses, as well as specialized courses based on students' different liberal arts and science choices.

As a freshman at the University of Tokyo, Aoko has two years to decide on her college major.

However, she had already made the decision, so Qingzi selected her elective courses according to the requirements of a mathematics major, thus avoiding the messy and indecisive process.

Aoko spent some time finding the freshman registration office and completing the registration. She also obtained a special off-campus residence permit for first-year freshmen through some less legal means (referring to suggestive magic). This way, she no longer had to live in the dormitory with other students, which made it much more convenient for her to study magic or practice spells.

The reason why it is so troublesome is that universities tend to recommend first-year freshmen to live in the dormitory, but it is not mandatory and they only need to provide reasonable reasons.

Although students live on campus, the student dormitories at the University of Tokyo are not located inside the campus. Instead, they are located in some school-run apartments around the campus.

By the second grade, there will be no such restrictions.

If Aoko was not a magician or a magic network arcanist, she would not mind living in the student dormitory. After all, the living environment of the student dormitory at the Komaba campus is quite good, and the accommodation fee is relatively affordable.

But there are no ifs. Aoko also enjoys the happiness and freedom of living alone, although she still has to go back to the Kuonji residence often to cook for Azuma and the others.

There were no formal classes on the first day of school, only some public lectures explaining campus life at the University of Tokyo to freshmen. Aoko listened for a while, then got bored and left secretly.

Rather than listening to this information that could be easily found in the student handbook, Aoko was more interested in the campus scenery of the University of Tokyo.

The campus environment of the Komaba campus is very beautiful, and the greening inside the campus is quite well done. Various trees that look quite old grow in every corner of the campus.

After coming out of the auditorium, Aoko walked all the way to the most famous "mountain"-shaped building on the Komaba campus, which is the comprehensive building of the Komaba campus, and took a photo of herself.

Then Aoko walked and took pictures as she went. Rather than a freshman at the University of Tokyo, Aoko now looked more like a tourist visiting the University of Tokyo. Some staff even came up to her and asked if she needed help.

However, after seeing her take out her student ID, the security guard immediately asked Aoko with a serious expression, "Isn't the freshman orientation session still being held now? Why are you here?", causing Aoko to have to use suggestive magic to get the security guard away.

Qingzi had been to Building 1 of the Faculty of Science more than once before, but she did not visit it again this time. Instead, she took many photos of the garden landscapes on campus.

I have to say that the architects who designed these are really good. If Orange can't make a living as a magician in the future (meaning she spends all her savings on random shopping), let her become an architect to earn money to pay off her debts...

After having a satisfying tour of the Komaba campus, Aoko secretly returned to the auditorium where the freshman orientation session was still going on.

She looked around and found that the classmates around her who were full of expectation and vitality at the beginning had now become drowsy and exhausted, while the teacher on the stage was still chattering about various precautions on campus...

I have to say that the teacher on the stage who was explaining the subject reminded Qingzi of a professor of history at a magic school in a children's novel, because they were both hypnotists in the same way.

Under the torture of this hypnotic radio wave, Qingzi forced herself to hold on for another half an hour, and finally waited for the end of the freshman orientation session.

Following the teacher's order, the freshmen in the audience finally felt relieved. They stood up immediately and walked out of the auditorium as if they had been liberated.

Many of the students were woken up by their classmates. They had been asleep for quite a long time. Qingzi guessed with evil humor whether someone was snoring...

Most of the students went directly to the student dormitory, while Qingzi walked to the parking lot, drove out her motorcycle, put on her helmet, and quickly returned to her apartment.

After dinner, Qingzi carefully planned her first year of college life according to her course schedule for this semester.

She marked which courses could be avoided with some "special means" and which courses were best not to be avoided.

The time saved by skipping classes is the time Qingzi usually uses to study magic and magic network spells.

Although this means that she has less time to study magic than in high school, Aoko believes that her arrangement is much more comprehensive than those magicians who only receive magic training.

Moreover, judging from her current strength level in this Type-Moon world, as long as she doesn't seek death, there are not many people who can threaten her personal safety.

Therefore, it can be said that Qingzi's days of training herself desperately like before dealing with Orange have come to an end. For her at this moment, enjoying campus life is the most important thing.

Even the college experiences from her "previous life" in her mind were just a somewhat distant memory.

The experience in a different world, a different country, and a different university will be completely different and worth her careful savoring.

---Dividing line---

Time flies, and Aoko has already attended two semesters at the University of Tokyo. It is almost the end of January 1991.

Aoko's grades in college have always been among the best. Professors and students all admire this beautiful girl who is quite mysterious (she skips classes a lot and is often nowhere to be found) and has outstanding academic performance.

Everyone thinks that smart students are particularly good at using their time, otherwise there is no way to explain why Qingzi can get such high scores despite having such a low attendance rate.

In addition to the required "general education courses" and "liberal arts courses", Qingzi also chose some relatively difficult mathematics courses available to freshmen, such as computational number theory and linear algebra.

Although it was not difficult for Qingzi to get high scores in these courses with her current intelligence, she still listened with gusto.

From the courses taught by different professors, Qingzi can always find different directions of understanding and entry points, which also helps to improve Qingzi's numerical magic skills.

After completing the final exams for each course this semester, Qingzi welcomed the winter break of the second semester.

As soon as Aoko returned to the Kuonji residence, she received a letter from Einzbern Ahadon.

The content of the letter mainly contains two points: the first is that Ahadon has confirmed that the Greater Holy Grail has indeed been contaminated by Avenger, and the second is that the time for the Fourth Holy Grail War is approaching...

He invited Aoko and Touko to the Einzbern Castle in Fuyuki City for a chat.

Chapter 86 Soul Transfer

Almost a year has passed since Qingzi took Orange to make trouble in the clock tower.

Since then, the area within the boundaries of Misaki Town can be said to be peaceful. Even Ryuka Suwase, who was a spy for the Magic Association, left Misaki Town without anyone noticing and no one knew what he was doing.

When Aoko was very young, Ryuka Suze was invited as a tutor. But because Aoko was not an ordinary child, she often asked tricky questions, which made Ryuka Suze, the educator, speechless... and finally fled.

However, the core reason why Zhou Lai Ritsuka ran away was not because of her lack of knowledge, but because she was exposed by Aoko for disguising herself as a man.

The "experienced" Aoko noticed at a glance that the tutor's hip structure was not right, and ran to complain to her father, which led to a crisis of trust between the tutor and the students' parents. After all, how could a woman who disguises herself as a man to be a tutor be a decent person?

Besides, Aoko didn’t really need a tutor. The tutor was hired only because Aoko’s father wanted Aoko to “win at the starting line” and didn’t want her to fall behind other familiar parents.

Before Aoko caused trouble at the clock tower, Ryoka Suze was still wandering around Misaki Town without doing anything else. After all, her sister was a nun at the Wada Church.

But when Aoko showed her brutal side of revenge and powerful fighting ability in front of the magic world, many evildoers in Misaki Town disappeared, including Ritsu Suze.

Aoko did not specifically ask Zhou Se Rijia of the Wada Church about this matter. After all, Zhou Se Rijia was just an insignificant character to Aoko and it was not worth paying too much attention to her.

Maintaining mutual understanding is beneficial to everyone.

Just like that, Misaki Town, which possessed the crooked spiritual vein, became the eye of the storm in the chaos. No matter it was the dead apostles and vampires who were making a fuss in other places, or the magicians who came from other places to steal chickens, all kinds of monsters avoided Misaki Town at this time, making Misaki Town almost a paradise in the mysterious world.

"Hmm, I've grown another 5 centimeters taller!" Orange stood in front of the dressing mirror in her room and nodded with satisfaction, expressing her satisfaction with her recent growth in height. "This way, I'll be back to normal in no time!"

The Grand Puppet Master is full of confidence in her future, not only because she has grown taller, but also because her secondary growth has increased the number of Orange's magic circuits to an astonishing 22! Two more than before!

This has to be said to be the biggest good news for Orange amid a series of failures in recent years.

When Orange was happily planning his bright future, the door of his room was suddenly and roughly pushed open with a bang.

"You guy, can you please knock on the door every time you come to my room!" Orange turned around and glared at her sister angrily, secretly despising her rude treatment from her sister in her heart.

"Don't worry about those insignificant little things, Orange," Aoko said as she walked over to Orange and plopped down on the chair next to her, handing Aozaki Orange a letter.

"What do you mean by an insignificant matter! Do you know...whose letter this is from?" Orange retorted angrily, while looking at the letter handed over by Aoko and asked.

"From Einzbern," Aoko said, "the Holy Grail ceremony I mentioned to you before seems to be about to begin. You will understand after reading the contents of the letter."

Orange quickly opened the letter and read it carefully. She couldn't help but care about this matter, because after all, the Heaven's Grail Ceremony involved whether Orange could obtain the third magic in the future. As long as she continued to exist as a magician, Orange would not be able to resist this temptation.

"Hmm...Have you confirmed the existence of the curse?" Orange muttered to himself while reading the letter, "Before launching the Heaven's Grail ritual, the Holy Grail needs to be purified..."

"How is it? Orange, do you have a plan?" Aoko looked at her sister expectantly and said, "Even my magic can't separate the Avenger's soul from the Holy Grail. After all, soul manipulation is the realm of the third magic."

"No problem!" Orange said confidently, "Although I wasn't very interested in the soul transfer technology before, it's not something I can't do. And based on the information provided by Einzbern, I have already analyzed the structure of the Holy Grail. As long as we can successfully defeat the other participants, the fruit of the Holy Grail will be within our reach!"

"For soul transfer, in a sense, it is the same thing as what I did before when I copied the soul," Orange continued to explain, "They are like different sides of the same prism. Although the effects look different, the general structure is the same."

"How long will it take?" Aoko asked, "According to Ahadon, the Holy Grail War is about to begin."

"Any time is fine," Orange said, "but I need to find the Greater Holy Grail of Fuyuki first. How should we arrange it then?"

"The Holy Grail is located in the large underground cave directly below Ryudo Temple on Mount Enzo," Aoko said, "It is an important node of the Fuyuki Spiritual Vein. I plan to set up our base at Ryudo Temple after meeting up with the Einzbern gang. This will make subsequent operations more convenient."

"Such a good place, how could other people not know about it?" Orange asked doubtfully, "After all, spirit vein nodes have always been the focus of competition."

"Fuyuki was actually deliberately hidden from intelligence in the past," Aoko shook her head and said, "At least not many people in the Magic Association know the truth about the Holy Grail Ceremony. They will probably only send one or two people to participate, and they will bring their own magic furnaces. Our participation is actually kept secret, and no one knows about it except Einzbern."

"What about the magician killer?" Orange continued to ask, "I don't think he is a trustworthy ally."

"Of course Emiya Kiritsugu cannot be trusted," Aoko replied affirmatively, "but that pathetic little character is not difficult to deal with. This is one of the reasons why I don't want to use the Einzbern Castle in Fuyuki as a base."

"Then the two of us and the Einzberns will ostensibly participate in the ceremony as two independent groups of contestants," Aoko said, "so that when necessary, we can find an opportunity to backstab the other contestants."

"Is this cheating?" Orange complained, but Aoko couldn't hear much disgust towards this method in her tone.

"Cheating is part of the fine traditions of the Holy Grail War. If you don't like it, don't play."

Chapter 87 Heading to Fuyuki City

Now that they had determined the general goal and plan, Aoko and Touko decided to set off as soon as possible for Fuyuki City.

The two explained the whole story to Arizuma, who thought about it in silence for a while before telling the Aozaki sisters about her plans.

"If there is no problem with your combat effectiveness, I won't go for the time being." Youzhu took a sip of black tea and said calmly.

"?" Qingzi was a little confused, "Why?"

"...Because of Misaki's spiritual vein, idiot." Yuzu looked at Aoko with a reproachful look, "At least one of the three of us must stay here to guard Misaki's spiritual vein and spiritual land, otherwise someone will come and occupy it soon."

"Well, this is indeed a problem," Qingzi said with sudden enlightenment, "Although I don't have much demand for spiritual veins, for a magic family, spiritual veins are indeed very important..."

"You are just a magician, so you can talk without any worries," Orange sighed and said, "If a magic family does not have the blessing of the spiritual environment for a long time, it will lead to 'water and soil incompatibility', and the magic circuits of the offspring will degenerate... Maybe they will disappear in the end and become ordinary people."

"Is that so?" Qingzi said nonchalantly, "I didn't quite understand this before~ or rather, I didn't care. I always thought that the management rights of the leylines were only the management rights of magic resources."

"Listen carefully," Orange raised a finger and said, "All spiritual veins and spiritual lands are blessings of the world that can only be formed naturally. For magicians, spiritual veins and spiritual lands represent a river connecting the front and back of the world..."
