Hearing Irisviel call from behind, the blonde girl turned around.
“I saw Illya and Kiritsugu playing; they’re back.”
Artoria Pendragon, one of the seven Servants summoned in this Holy Grail War, holds the strongest seat of swords.
"Kiritsugu's performance surprised you?"
"Yes, I thought my Master would be a colder person."
Even through the glass and at a distance, Saber's keen hearing allowed her to hear the little girl's energetic laughter.
Her laughter was enough to show how harmonious the relationship was between her and her father.
Irisviel could only offer an apologetic, wry smile.
"No wonder you think that way."
Since Saber was summoned, Emiya Kiritsugu, as her Master, has never spoken a single word to her.
Just as Irisviel was about to defend her husband, her daughter ran in first.
"mom!"
"Why don't you play a little longer, Ilya?"
"My sister is coming over, and I need to make her some coffee... Sera! Sera, come with me to the kitchen first!"
Ilya hurriedly grabbed a passing maid and dashed into the kitchen.
"What's wrong with that child? Who is the older sister she's talking about?"
"do not know."
Kiritsugu Emiya shook off a snowflake from his clothes and walked in with a wry smile: "That child suddenly said that a guest was coming. If there weren't any outside magicians around, I would have thought she was under a hallucinogenic spell."
"Could it be a psychological problem..."
While the couple were discussing, Ilya had already returned to the living room.
The maid, Sera, placed the tray down expressionlessly. On the tray were five steaming cups of coffee.
Ilya sat obediently in the chair and said softly, "The coffee is ready, Alice-neechan."
next moment.
The people in the room were suddenly dazed.
Right across from Ilya sat a silver-haired, purple-eyed girl.
Sakayanagi Arisu tilted her head slightly and glanced at them.
The all-pervasive spiritual power easily manipulated their consciousness, causing them to abandon all suspicion and hostility.
After all, Sakayanagi Arisu really didn't want to waste any extra energy explaining her overly bizarre origins.
Especially the suspicious and ruthless Emiya Kiritsugu.
So, Kiritsugu Emiya and Irisviel sat down at the table as usual and picked up their coffees.
Meanwhile, the android Sera went to the kitchen to prepare some snacks.
"Einzbern, the legacy of the Third Sorcerer, the curse of the Rhinegold..."
In the instant she traced the origins of this castle, Arisu Sakayanagi saw all the secrets of the Einzbern family.
Those with spiritual power are the natural enemy of all intelligent beings.
She can control the entire castle in just three seconds.
Three seconds later, all the androids in the castle silently became her servants.
There is only one exception.
After the other party barely withstood the first wave of mental impact, Sakayanagi Arisu did not increase the intensity, but instead lightly beckoned her with her finger.
"Saber, come here."
The petite blonde girl walked over naturally and came to stand in front of Sakayanagi Arisu, like a docile pet.
But those emerald eyes were filled with shock and rage.
Artoria could clearly feel that her consciousness was being manipulated by the other party, and her body was powerless to resist that strange magic!
"Lower your head a little."
The body, obediently bending over.
Sakayanagi Arisu stretched out her hands and rubbed the girl's smooth face.
She smiled with delight: "Finally, I've got my hands on the King's face, but the feel is still not as good as Sirin's..."
"I want me too!"
Ilya curiously leaned closer.
She not only rubbed Saber's cheeks, but also curiously tugged at the other's peculiar ahoge (cowlick).
Sakayanagi Arisu found it interesting and couldn't help but tag Adam.
[Your favorite blue dog is right here, why don't you come over and pet it a couple of times?]
[Come back later. I'm having friendly talks with the Root Style. If she dares to be disrespectful, don't blame me for forcing myself on her...]
Chapter 165 This Ilya has finally gone mad and become someone I don't recognize.
"Welcome, visitors from another world."
The place where Adam is is not a snow-covered castle, nor is it Fuyuki City in the 1990s.
He was in a quaint, old-fashioned manor.
Outside the manor lie countless fragments of time and law.
Countless tiny snowflakes were drifting in the sky.
An electric light cast a dim, yellowish glow on the snowflakes, and the white crystals danced in the light, looking like a swarm of flying insects from a distance.
An impeccably beautiful young woman in a kimono is gracefully brewing tea.
Porcelain-white skin.
Deep, jet-black eyes.
Messy yet neat shoulder-length black hair.
"Please have a seat, guest. I will prepare some tea."
A small woman walks away.
Without asking any further questions, Adam knew that the other party was Ryougi Shiki.
However, Ryougi Shiki's eyes were not the usual cold indifference, nor were they filled with the murderous intent of the Mystic Eyes of Death Perception.
A sense of indifference and emptiness.
It was both extremely empty and extremely fulfilling.
Everything exists, yet nothing exists.
Adam gazed into her eyes, those extraordinary eyes that could reach the vortex of the Root, eyes that encapsulated a microcosm of this world.
"The root of all things and nothingness, I thought you, a dead thing with only rationality, would not be interested in outsiders like us."
Since the year 1 AD, magicians of the Magic Association have been pursuing the Root, because at that time they realized that the Root is the truth itself, and by reaching the Root, they can know the principles of all things.
In order to achieve this goal.
There are countless magicians who are willing to sacrifice their own lives and families.
What exactly is the so-called "root" for magicians and for all beings of Type-Moon?
That is the Dao of Heaven for all living beings in the primordial world, and the Tree of Illusory Numbers for all living beings in their decay.
"The world is so boring."
His question was answered in a fundamental way.
“Magicians can overstep their authority and influence the world’s order. Destruction or creation is a miracle to them, but to me it’s just a thought. If needed, I can destroy the old world with a new one at any time.”
She shook her head and sighed, "But what's the point?"
"That would only make me feel very tired, like a dream."
"So, I don't look at anything, I don't think about anything, and I'm having a dream that's not even a dream."
The Origin smiled slightly, as if looking down on itself, with a slight upturn at the corners of its mouth: "Only when a descendant like you comes can I find a long-lost sense of novelty in that boring state."
"That means you're getting old!"
Adam didn't hold back in his personal attack: "You're an old woman who's lost her passion and drive. I'm different. I'm still young, and I'm still interested in many things in this world."
"Then, young one who has come, what do you ask of me?"
"My half-body is with you, and I'm here to take her back."
"So that's how it is, I see. I've seen the cause and effect between you and that child. Illyasviel von Einzbern, as a transmigrator, she's one of the few people who can bring me joy, but..."
The Root is pretty much the same as the Teyvat principle.
Powerful outsiders are called "descendants" or "masters."
The weak are just time travelers or time-travelers; the main tactic is to treat people differently based on their abilities.
Adam frowned. "But what?"
He sensed something profound in the root of the matter's words.
The statement "As a transmigrator, she is one of the few people who can make me feel happy" is problematic—Ilya, who has lost her memories of her past life, is just an innocent and naive little girl.
Very cute though.
But why can the root of all things feel pleasure?
After pondering the root cause for a moment, he revealed an empty smile once again.
"But haven't you already achieved enlightenment in your other half?"
Dao Jie means to be in harmony with the Dao.
In this world's terms, it means that Ilya has entered the Root and has completely disappeared from the world.
Adam: "??"
What nonsense are you spouting? Ilya is right there.
[Adam, come here for a second, something's wrong with this world!]
Upon hearing this, Adam got up and went to Sakayanagi Arisu's place.
His gaze was vacant and unfocused.
She wanted to stop it, but then she heard the threatening voice of the Supreme God: "I tolerated you throwing my children into the Lostbelt to be reduced to ashes, but if you dare to stop me now, I'll force you to kneel down and become a Star Slave, and give birth to a Ryougi Mana."
The Root-like nothingness's smile faltered for a moment, then it chuckled, "What are you saying? As the Root, I have no gender, so how could I possibly give birth to a daughter..."
"What did Kurogiri Mikiya say?"
"Haha...that's just a possibility for the future! Besides, it's Ryougi Shiki's choice, not mine!"
Adam scoffed: "And there's 'The Choice of Sajou Aika,' right? The root of your budding desires, you old maid, so unsatisfied, why don't I satisfy you! I'll make you give birth to a litter of little Mina every year like a sow."
Genyuan was so embarrassed by his foul language that he quickly covered his face and fled.
The world around us seemed to have regained its color.
Ryougi Shiki seemed to wake from a dream, her expression cold, and found herself sitting opposite a strange man in her family's manor.
She frowned involuntarily: "Who are you?"
She is only fourteen years old this year, with a clear and crisp voice. She asked half a question and then fell silent, as if she had received a message from her root personality.
"Are you my future husband?"
Adam glanced at her in surprise, but ignored her.
With one step, he traveled from Kanbuko City in Japan to Europe, and arrived at the Einzbern family's castle.
