"Hey, brother, stop being so arrogant and express your feelings bravely."

"I'm not a tsundere, and I've already expressed my thoughts, but you just ignored them!"

"After all, being able to sleep with beautiful girls like me and Sister Skadi in your arms is already an advantage for your brother! If that's the case, then don't be picky."

"I'd rather not take advantage of this. I didn't sleep all night yesterday!"

"Then why can't brother sleep?" Zi smiled slyly.

Toosaka Kiyoshi rolled his eyes. Zi was simply asking a question that already knew the answer.

Could it be that he played pranks on people too many times and taught Zi bad things?

No, what does this have to do with him? Purple turns black when cut open.

Athena had only been gone for one day, but Kiyoshi Toosaka already missed her.

"Pack your things, we're getting ready to leave here." said Kiyoshi Toosaka, who was too lazy to continue talking nonsense.

Zi asked doubtfully, "Are we moving?"

Toosaka Kiyoshi shook his head: "We are going to find Nana. Nana wants to regain her strength, but the Greek gods will definitely not let her do so. She is already in a weak period and it is difficult for her to protect herself. We have to help her."

The two girls usually get along well with Athena, so naturally they would not object.

More than an hour later, Kiyoshi Tousaka uprooted the house they had lived in for five years and stuffed it into the death record space.

By the way, the young apple trees that had already borne fruit once were also packed up and taken away.

Although the apples it produces cannot grant immortality, they can fix the appearance of the person who eats the apple forever at the moment the apple is eaten. Even after death, as long as it is not destroyed by human beings, the person's appearance can be retained forever.

As long as Toosaka Kiyoshi can find another material that can make people immortal and mix it with the apples from this apple tree, it is not impossible to make the elixir of life.

So it’s better to carry the apple tree with you, you never know when it may come in handy.

Looking at the deep pit where the house disappeared, Zi asked in confusion: "Brother, will we never come back?"

Tousaka Kiyoshi nodded: "I won't be coming back."

The "fate" of this world is related to many stories in his memory, so he often sees things that are "destined" to happen in the future.

This ability has been gradually evolving over the years, and has now become something like future vision, allowing one to see even the ordinary future beyond "destiny".

Kiyoshi Tousaka used his future vision to look for Athena and happened to see them settling down in Greece.

In this case, there is naturally no need to keep the house here, as the modern appliances inside are still too advanced for this era.

"Let's go." Kiyoshi Toosaka patted Zi and Skadi on the shoulders.

Having said that, Tousaka Kiyoshi took the lead and flew south, and Skadi and Zi quickly followed.

Three days later, the three landed near Athens, blended in with the crowd entering the city, and successfully entered the city that regards Athena as its patron saint.

Chapter 201 The Culprit is Me

After entering Athens, Kiyoshi Tousaka and his companions only lived in the city for four or five days before they realized something was wrong.

Logically speaking, Athena lived with them for five years, so she should have disappeared from the eyes of the Athenians for five years, but the Athenians were completely unaware of this.

To be precise, from the perspective of the Athenians, Athena never disappeared.

While Athena lived with them, there was another Athena in the city of Athens who often appeared before the Athenians and did many things that a patron saint should do.

There is no doubt that this Athena was disguised as Metis, who has the same appearance as Athena.

But the question is why did Metis pretend to be Athena?

Athena had been away from Athens for five years, so the Athenians' faith in her must have decreased a lot, and her already weak strength would have declined further.

Even if Metis pretended to be Athena and kept these beliefs, the power of the beliefs would flow to Athena and she would not gain any benefits.

So there are only two reasons why Metis did this, either she actually supports Athena and does not accept the current myth.

Either she temporarily replaced Athena's identity and there was some other conspiracy behind it.

Kiyoshi Toosaka felt that the only possibility was the second one. He also roughly guessed what the specific conspiracy was. The "fate" he saw through his future vision also confirmed his guess.

In the future he saw, Athena had already come to the city, but had been hiding in the dark to investigate the whereabouts of the Gorgon Stone.

He even knew where Athena was hiding now, but he had no intention of meeting Athena right now.

Athena had just left in anger, and even if he wanted to reconcile, she probably wouldn't be willing.

So he planned to make plans in secret first, and then rescue Athena after she fell into Metis' trap. At that time, he would propose reconciliation, and Athena would probably be embarrassed to refuse.

On the tenth day after arriving in Athens, Kiyoshi Tōsaka and the other two had already integrated into the lives of ordinary people in this city.

According to the public account, he and his father were traveling across the sea for business, but they encountered a sea monster on the way. He, his sister and his personal servant survived by chance, but the whereabouts of the caravan were unknown.

After this incident, he decided to stop doing business and temporarily settle down in Athens. He would not leave until he earned enough money to return home.

Because they have to play the role of down-and-out young men, Skadi and Zi's attire will be restricted whenever they go out.

The two people, who were used to a life of luxury, naturally did not want to wear clothes of that era, so they became stay-at-home moms.

On this day, Toosaka Kiyomasa was planning to go out and continue to build relationships, but Zi found him with a worried look on her face.

Toosaka Kiyoshi was a little confused. Ever since leaving the seaside villa in Northern Europe, Zi's mood had been a little off.

He just thought Zi was a little uncomfortable with the sudden move, so he didn't ask. Now it seems that there is another reason.

"Is there a problem?"

Zi took a deep breath, mustered up the courage and said, "Brother, please give me an apple of youth."

Tousaka Kiyoshi wondered, "What do you want it for?"

Zi, who had already decided to speak out her concerns, spoke without any hesitation.

"During these five years, Sister Skadi, Nana, and Brother, your appearance has not changed at all, but I have grown up so much. In other words, my life is only a few decades."

"In that case, I hope that I can always maintain my youthful and most beautiful appearance, so that even if the time is short, I can leave a deeper impression in my brother's long life."

"Even if hundreds or thousands of years have passed, you are not allowed to forget me, brother! Otherwise, I will be really sad. This time, I am not joking."

Toosaka Kiyoshi was stunned. Perhaps it was because he had been with the Immortals for a long time and knew Zi's life experience and future, so he subconsciously regarded Zi as an Immortal. Isn't Zi also an Immortal?

Kiyoshi Toosaka called out to the world consciousness in his heart, hoping it would give him an answer.

Soon, the voice of the world consciousness sounded in Toosaka Kiyoshi's ears, and it seemed clearer than the last time they communicated.

"Yakumo Yukari shouldn't have been born at this time. I made her born earlier, and naturally there is a price to pay."

"Before she was born, she was just an ordinary human with special powers. She would naturally experience the birth, aging, illness and death that humans experience."

Toosaka Kiyoshi frowned: "Do we have to pay this price? Please be flexible. It's just a few lifespans. As the world consciousness, shouldn't it be easy for you to adjust?"

The world consciousness replied: "If it were anyone else, I could certainly do it. But as a life born from the root, Yakumo Yukari is very special. If her existence is adjusted, it will cause serious consequences."

"How serious is it?"

"Just like adding or deleting the concept of the world at will, you have done this before, and the impact has not been eliminated to this day."

Tousaka Kiyoshi was confused: "When have I ever done something like this?"

"Before the world was about to be born, you used a special attack method to completely erase all concepts related to 'malice' in this world. This also caused the life I created to have no 'desire' and 'nature', and the world had no possibility of evolution and development."

"But then you abandoned the two powers you held and filled the world with concepts related to 'malice', and the world got back on track. So I have forgiven you."

However, Tosaka Kiyoshi complained: "You even forgave me, but why can't I remember doing such a thing? Could it be that you made it up?"

"Then I'll show you."

As soon as the voice of the world consciousness fell, a picture of chaos and nothingness appeared in front of Toosaka Kiyoshi.

Nothing substantial existed in that picture, including time and space. Even the empty "black" was filled in by him to facilitate his visual understanding.

But in this picture where none of this existed, Kiyoshi Toosaka could feel concepts enough to form a world flowing and colliding within it.

Then he saw an incredible scene. In a "moment" that was easy to understand, an invisible slash that was almost impossible to trace appeared from an unknown place and completely wiped out the concept of "malice" in this nascent world, leaving a huge void in the world.

Only then did Kiyoshi Toosaka remember that when he first came here, because the external environment was harsh and the body used for movement could not exist, he was trapped in the death record space.

He then tried to attack the outside world in space, and one of his attacks was successful. It seemed that this was the time.

Sure enough, in the picture played by the world consciousness, after a gap appeared in the world, his figure appeared in that gap.

Then the picture faded, and the voice of the world consciousness sounded again: "Do you believe it now?"

Toosaka Kiyoshi looked a little embarrassed. At that time, he thought there was something wrong with the process of the world consciousness creating living things.

Who could have thought that he himself was the culprit who caused the creatures in this world to be so unmotivated.

"I'm sorry. I didn't expect my attack at that time would cause you so much harm."

"No need to apologize. I didn't have self-awareness back then, and I don't have any sense of it now. Besides, you've already made amends for what you did, so let it go."

"Brother, what's wrong with you? You suddenly have such a strange expression."

Zi's ​​curious voice brought Kiyoshi Tousaka back to reality from his conversation with the world consciousness.

Tousaka Kiyoshi waved his hands to indicate that everything was fine.

Then he asked the world consciousness: "Is there really no way to extend Zi's life?"

"As long as it is the power within this world, it cannot affect her lifespan."

"The power within this world..." Tousaka Kiyoshi suddenly realized, "In other words, all I have to do is use the power outside this world?"

The World Consciousness did not deny it, but said: "Why are you so obsessed with her life span? The reincarnation system of Hell is about to be built. With your relationship, she can completely reincarnate with her memories. What is the meaning of such a life span?"

"You can understand this as a kind of inexplicable persistence. If it really doesn't work, reincarnation is also a method, I can accept it, but I think there is a better way, so why not give it a try?"

"as long as you are happy."

The world consciousness fell silent again, but Toosaka Kiyoshi began to daydream.

The idea of ​​using power from outside the world to extend Zi's life gave Tousaka Kiyoshi a lot of inspiration. If his conjecture could come true, the problem of the elixir of immortality could also be solved.

In this world today, there are three forces outside the world. One is himself, one is the evil of this world, and the other is the filth that drives creatures crazy.

He himself has the ability to free Zi from her mortal lifespan, as long as Zi signs a contract with him and becomes a magical girl.

But Zi's identity is special. She is a life born from the root of the world and is the most fundamental part of this world.

If Zi signs a contract with him and becomes a magical girl, her name will be transferred from this world to his.

This will cause Zi to lose the gifts of the root, such as gaps and the power of realm.

Is the purple without gaps and realm power still the Yakumo purple in his memory? Therefore, his own power can only be the worst choice, worse than reincarnation.

As for the evil of this world, it has been integrated into the souls of all humans. Unless he first creates a Zoroastrianism in this world and then holds a Holy Grail War, he will no longer be able to use the power of the evil of this world.

So of the three options, only Filth is left, and Filth is the most suitable one.

Filth itself is ineradicable, and the filth that has gathered together can only be weakened by breaking it up and transferring it.

This kind of “indestructible” means “unkillable” when applied to living things.

Although filth is not a living thing, Kiyoshi Toosaka can extract its "indestructible" property alone, and then combine it with the apple that can maintain eternal youth, he can create a true elixir of immortality.

The appearance of the person who takes the drug will be forever fixed at the moment of taking the drug, and not only will they become immortal, but they will also become invincible.

Even if the body of the person taking the medicine is broken down into countless particles smaller than atoms, the person taking the medicine will be resurrected within a very short time.

Of course, the specific operation certainly requires more than just filth and the apple of youth. Powers such as time must also be arranged. It is estimated that it is not that easy to make the elixir of immortality.

But no matter what, the matter of the elixir of immortality has been solved, right?

Moreover, filth itself is a power beyond this world, and the elixir of immortality he developed can also work on Zi.

Zi saw that Tousaka Kiyoshi fell into deep thought again, and felt a little lost and frustrated.

Isn't my brother unwilling? These apples are harvested every year and are not particularly rare, but he is unwilling to let me use them?

I just want to be with my brother in the most beautiful way possible, but he is unwilling to fulfill even this small wish?

I gave one to the turtle for the purpose of experimentation. Am I worse than the freshly caught turtle in my brother's eyes?

The more Zi thought about it, the more aggrieved she felt. Suddenly, her nose felt sore and her eyes turned red.

Just as Kiyoshi Toosaka came to his senses after thinking things through, he saw Zi looking aggrieved, as if she would cry at the next moment.
