The world of Type-Moon starts with saving Altria!

"Yes." Ian nodded, "If it's her... maybe she can do something."

"after all--"

"She can sense all this, can't she?"

[Your hunch is indeed correct. ]

[Ibaraki Douji can indeed do more. 】

[Relying on the connection between herself and the Holy Grail, she quickly locked onto a certain location in Yuanzang Mountain again.]

[A miraculous phenomenon is waiting for you. 】

This is indeed the case.

Ibaraki Douji, whose whole body was covered in flames (this was the effect she had when she asked Illya for magic power), stopped again.

She looked at the bare area in front of her, stretched out her hand, and then made some gestures.

This is not something that Ibaraki Douji originally knew.

But -

"Abe-sama... I hope you can remember more things."

That's right.

This is the memory of Ibaraki Douji, a move from the Heian period.

It is also a lost skill of the Abe family.

At this moment, a miracle that transcends time has occurred in this Holy Grail War.

Only a blurry figure appeared in front of everyone.

That was the remaining will of Irisviel - she soon noticed Illya.

"Illya, why are you here?"

"mom!"

Illya yelled and ran straight towards where Irisviel was.

"Because I came to find you~"

"Really? Illya is amazing."

As soon as she finished speaking, Irisviel disappeared.

"Eh?!" The little Loli panicked when she touched the empty space.

"Why is mom missing?"

"There's too little left here." Berserker Ibaraki Douji grabbed Illya's hand.

"But, it doesn't matter."

"There are many places nearby - Master, I can show you all of them one by one."

"I'm sure I'll see her many times."

"Oh, okay!"

Looking at the Berserker group walking away hand in hand, Ian and Altria knew that this journey had achieved its purpose.

The forest of Yuanzang Mountain will be the place where mother and daughter will reunite.

only--

The girl also thought about the future

"Mr. Ian."

"Though it does allow Illya to see her mother now."

"But...what should I do next?"

"If you say that—"

Looking at Illya holding Ibaraki Douji's hand and acting coquettishly with Irisviel in the distance, Ian's expression was also somewhat touched.

"As for the future... I actually thought of a less reliable method."

"Is there ever a time when Mr. Ian is unsure?" Altria was a little surprised.

"of course."

The man looked at the girl next to him and smiled.

"Lily."

"What do you think about letting the Tohsaka family adopt Illya after the Holy Grail War is over?"

352. The wife wants to entrust Illya to him/Aho-Mao untied the knot/The truth (4k)

"..."

Altria moved her head little by little, and finally looked at the man next to her.

"Mr. Ian, are you serious about this?"

"Of course I'm serious."

In Ian's vision, Illya was holding Ibaraki Douji's hand, happily telling her about her life with her mother's will that remained on Mount Enzo.

"Illya has to go somewhere eventually, right?"

"and--"

The man looked at the girl beside him, with a hint of heartache in his eyes.

"You've always felt guilty about Illya, haven't you?"

"..."

The girl tilted her head, her expression full of guilt.

"Mr. Ian, you are right."

"If I had been stronger at that time... maybe this wouldn't be the result now."

"This has nothing to do with being powerful or not, Lily."

"You've worked hard."

The man hugged Altria tenderly and stroked her head gently, hoping to ease her worries.

"Let's go over and see how it goes."

"Go and take a look?" Altria raised her head with a look of surprise.

"Mr. Ian, this is..."

"Take me to meet your good friend." The man smiled slightly, "I haven't met her yet."

Without waiting for the girl to respond, Ian took her directly towards Illya.

He knew that if he didn't meet Irisviel now, there would be an indelible shadow in Altria's heart.

[You walked over with Altria.]

[Because he was summoned by Illya, Ibaraki Douji not only has excellent abilities, but also has strong adaptability. ]

[You two met Irisviel.]

As soon as they met, Altria became a little nervous.

She found it more difficult to face Irisviel than she had imagined.

after all--

Whenever she sees that face, the Knight Girl will recall her failure in the Fourth Holy Grail War.

That was something difficult to talk about, and even with Ian's comfort, it couldn't be changed.

But what Altria didn't expect was that when she was still hesitating about how to start the conversation, Irisviel took the initiative to talk.

"Lily."

"You're here too?"

Irisviel's tone was so gentle, yet so cheerful, as if she had no idea that she was dead.

but--

Even so, Altria still didn't dare to answer her.

But Irisviel didn't seem to want to give up on her friend just like that.

Soon, she called the other person's name again:

"Lily, we haven't seen each other for only ten years, don't you recognize me?"

"Oh, the dead are really easy to be forgotten."

Once these two sentences were spoken, they clearly showed Irisviel's state of mind at the moment.

She knew she was dead.

but--

The Einzbern lady was not depressed by this.

On the contrary, she was quite happy to be able to meet her old friend.

Altria's eyes became moist.

Since the day she saw Illya, she had been wondering if Irisviel would hate her.

I clearly said I would protect her life, but in the end...

But now it seems——

Irisviel had no complaints about this.

Even at this moment of death, she still regarded herself as her best friend.

"Nothing like that." The girl wiped her eyes, "How could I forget you, Ellie?"

"Then why didn't you say anything just now——!"

Irisviel supported her hips with her hands, pouted, and looked unhappy.

"I thought you had forgotten me after not seeing me for ten years, Lily!"

"It's just that I'm not used to it for the moment." Altria felt a little embarrassed.

"Oh, it turns out that seeing dead people is still very uncomfortable."

Irisviel made her own joke.

"But... Lily, I'm glad to see you here~"

"Me too!" Altria responded immediately.

"That's good." Irisviel smiled slightly.

"Oh, right!" The wife's eyes fell on Ian standing beside her, "This is..."

"Eh……"

Altria's expression became somewhat embarrassed—she really didn't know how to describe her current relationship with Ian.

[Despite that late-night date, your relationship with Aldtoria is still somewhat awkward.]

[However, you still remember her reaction to the misunderstandings of the local residents along the way.]

【You realize that she actually wants to be treated specially for once. 】

【Why not do this? 】

The girl was still hesitating on how to answer her former friend's question, but she felt her hand being gently held.

She turned her head and saw Ian smiling.

Suddenly, Altria realized that he was using his actions to "explain" the relationship between them.
