After clearing Type Moon, start fighting for a better world

"Of course, it's to find out who his next ex-wife is. If she's not a big deal, then get rid of her within two months."

Vita took out a dagger from under her coat with lifeless eyes. The cold light made Ji Zi's heart skip a beat.

Do it...

"No, not really. Xia Chuan is just going to meet with Director Orange. Vita, are you kidding me?"

"Well, of course I'm joking~~~"

Vita said this as she gently folded the short knife in her hand and broke it easily: "This is made of newspaper. [A yandere girl who turns evil due to jealousy] - I've wanted to play this kind of role for a long time~~~~Are you scared?"

"......"

(To be honest, there is a little bit...)

Taking off all her clothes, Vita smiled slightly: "But the idea of ​​following Tiger is true. After all, I have lived with him for five years, and this is the first time I know that he actually has a wife! And he is a teacher and a wife... Is that guy the protagonist from somewhere?!"

“I am indeed surprised by this.”

A few hours ago, at the dinner table, after hearing Ji Zi mention [Orange], Xiachuan Hu asked her for Orange's contact number, exchanged several text messages with that [Orange] in front of everyone, and then made the decision to go and meet [Orange] - he left home just now for this.

Vita believes that she has a strong psychological tolerance. No matter how dark, cruel, and bizarre the R18 scenes are, she can watch them calmly. She can also follow episode after episode of the extremely stomach-breaking party dramas that make people want to take stomach medicine.

But she had to admit that when Xia Chuanhu said that [Orange] was his wife, she really felt like something was breaking in her heart.

"So Vita, you don't know Xia Chuan's relationship status either?"

"Well... I know that he is very popular. There are no other men's numbers in his phone except Siegfried, the bishop and the leader of Anti-Entropy. He also goes out to meet a woman far away in Siberia every once in a while... But I really didn't expect that he is already married!"

This can also be said to be Vita's preconceived idea.

The main thing is that Xia Chuanhu really doesn't look like a married man at all - what kind of husband would be alone raising a child outside, and bring a young and beautiful girl like her home without any scruples, not charging her a penny of rent and letting her eat and drink for free for five years?

——Hello, there is one, it’s this Xiachuan.

In addition, Xia Chuan Hu almost never mentioned his love life. Combined with the two factors, even if Xia Chuan Hu had said before that he was married, Vita didn't take it seriously.

But I never expected it to come true this time!

Looking at Vita imitating "The Scream" over there, Jizi couldn't help but think of her previous conversation with Xiachuan Hu. She remembered that Xiachuan Hu said that he and Vita were not "that kind of relationship" at all, but looking at Vita's current situation...

(In other words, it’s not [that kind of relationship], but is it [that kind of thing]?)

"So, Vita, are you still going to chase Xia Chuan now? He shouldn't have gone far."

"Of course, but I have to disguise myself first. Besides, no matter how far he goes, I can catch up with him." Vita shook her mobile phone, and a moving red dot was displayed on the map on the screen.

This guy actually put a locator on Xia Chuanhu!

"Oh, oh, oh~~~~Jizi, do you want to come with us?"

"Eh? Me, me?"

"There is strength in numbers, and... I also have something I want to confirm, okay~~~"

Vita came over, took Jizi's arm, and started shaking it like a spoiled child.

Ji Zi hesitated for a while and said, "I... forget it. Xia Chuan asked me to help Bianca with her homework. You should remember to come back early."

"Hey~~~ Why is this happening?"

————————————————————

A while later, in a park near Xiachuan's house.

"...Weita made these gadgets, right?"

Taking off the small props stuck on his clothes and the soles of his shoes, Xia Chuanhu sighed slightly: "She actually installed a GPS on me. Let's not talk about how she dared to do that. It's amazing that she could learn this technology by herself... She must be quite important, otherwise it would be a good idea to throw her into the female assassination unit or the intelligence department?"

"From what I know about you, you noticed these little things before you put on your coat and shoes, right?"

A hand suddenly stretched out in front of Xia Chuanhu and took the locator from his hand.

"The technique is acceptable. It's pretty good in terms of the level of self-production. As the beginning of our long-awaited reunion, it's not bad."

"It's been a while since we last met. The last time we met was a few years ago, Tiger."

Wearing an orange-red coat and with her red hair simply tied up, Orange, with the surname Aozaki, appeared naturally in front of Natsukawa Tiger, holding a half-smoked thin cigarette in her hand.

"From my personal experience, it's five years, four months, and eighteen days. Long time no see, Orange."

"You have a good memory for such subtle things."

Sitting down next to Xia Chuanhu, Chengzi put out the cigarette in his hand and said, "So, why did you call me out of the institute with just one phone call? It's not like you haven't seen me for several years, and you missed me as soon as you knew my whereabouts, right?"

"Can't you?"

Xia Chuanhu smiled gently.

How many years has it been since I last saw this boy smile? ——Aozaki Touko couldn't help but think of this question. And the next moment she thought of this, the thin puppeteer lady grabbed Xiachuanhu's collar and kissed him hard on the lips.

"...Well, it's okay. It doesn't have the smell of other people."

After tasting it lightly, Aozaki Touko licked her lips in satisfaction: "It seems that I am the first one you found. Now I have a lot of opportunities to monopolize you. Come to my place tonight."

"Orange, I still have a child to take care of."

"How dare you say that when you're the one running around the world every day and leaving Shiki alone at home to take care of Mina?"

Puff!

There was a faint sound as if a knife was inserted directly into Xiachuanhu's heart.

"Well, we can change the time. Anyway, judging from your appearance, you probably still don't know anything, right? I'm not in a hurry for today. Besides catching up and seeing me, do you have something else to ask me?"

"Yes."

"Then take the initiative first--"

Before Aozaki Orange could finish her words, Xiachuanhu kissed her lips first: "... Orange, don't bite your teeth."

"Will you come to my place later?"

"I have to take care of the baby."

"I'll really give you two stabs when we get back."

Having said that, Aozaki Touko didn't feel any dissatisfaction: "I roughly know what you want to ask. Let me think about it. If I want to say it... from my perspective, that was something that happened [twenty years ago]."

17. Holy Grail War

Twenty years ago, for Aozaki Touko, that was when she was still running around in that world.

At the time, she was working in the underworld in Mexico when she received a call from Chaldea, saying that there was a big project that required the help of her, the top puppeteer. She thought she had a lot of free time, so she went over.

Then she learned that Xiachuan Hu had gone to another world, or other universe for some unknown reason.

Although she had long been accustomed to her little man disappearing from time to time, that was only limited to the parallel world, and he would reappear without any problems within a few months. But this time, he went directly to other universes, which really surprised Aozaki Touko.

[What then? Why did you call me here? If it's just to inform you, you can just call me, right? ]

In response to the question raised by Aozaki Touko at that time, Meili gave the following answer:

......

"She said she wanted to prepare a special gift for you to prevent you from attracting other men outside and bringing new people into the family."

"I've been wanting to ask this for a long time. How much do you distrust me? Have I really been very well behaved in recent years? I've rejected almost all social activities and went straight home after work every time."

"There's no point in complaining to me. Go complain to your court magician."

Aozaki Touko lit another cigarette.

She and Xiachuan Hu were indeed wife in the legal sense. They had held a wedding and obtained a marriage certificate, and they had done all the things that a couple should do.

But how to say it better?

Because they were so close, they didn't have any problem with his behavior. In fact, there were many people in Xiachuan's family who thought this way.

"So, what exactly is that [gift]?"

Xia Chuanhu asked: "Chaos told me that because the transmission across the universe is not stable, the [gift] was sent to a different era in this world... Could it be that the gift is you?"

"Then I'd better tie myself up with a red ribbon?"

"We played this game ten years ago."

"That's right." Aozaki Touko pointed at herself and said, "But now that you've said that, it seems that the reason you haven't taken any action in the past few years is not only because you're not really in a hurry, but also because you're completely unaware of the situation here."

I've said it before, for the past five years, Xia Chuan Hu has been focusing on the development of the destiny technique and raising children, and has not paid much attention to Meili's [gift].

The reason is the same as what Aozaki Touko said.

"After all, I don't think there's any need to rush. Back then, I only contacted you once every hundred years. It's only been five years, so there's nothing much to feel."

"It's the same for me. Even though I haven't seen you for more than 20 years, I don't feel like I've been apart from you for a long time. Let's get back to the point. The so-called [gifts] are actually [copies] of several family members that I, Lingyi, and Meili made together."

A replica?

Aozaki Touko exhaled a puff of smoke and continued, "You know, I have been using a puppet to replace my original body since a certain time. Now even I don't know whether I am a puppet or my real body. When did I disappear?"

"And in order for us to come here, Meili asked Lingyi to do a calculation experiment first, and then realized it through my technology and her magic."

"To put it simply, I stuffed a [copy of consciousness] into the [blank doll] I made, and made adjustments to it so that it could carry [seeds]. The so-called [gift] is a general term for those [seeds]. The me you see now is not the real me. I am just a copy made by [Aozaki Touko] that is 99.9% similar to her."

"After the seed is released into this world, it will grow according to the settings. It will become an [Adult] in about three months. Whether it is the ability or memory, it is no different from the original. And when this individual dies, our experience will be synchronously fed back to the main body - in this way, it is a bit similar to the relationship between [Heroic Spirit] and [Servant]."

(I see......)

After Aozaki Touko's explanation, Natsukawa Tora completely understood it.

This means that Meili sent the people of the Natsukawa family to this world in the form of [Flesh Servants].

"I was sent here about twenty-two years ago. You said it yourself. Transmission across universes and worlds is not very stable. Even Chaos only had some minor problems. And in the past twenty years, I have been trying to find you while surviving in this world."

"Then more than ten years ago, I came to Tianming because I wanted to find a place to rest, and I have been working here ever since. Although I knew you were coming five years ago, I thought meeting you was not a big deal, so I kept putting it off - are you used to this world?"

Xia Chuanhu smiled and said, "How bad do you think my adaptability is? I've gotten used to it a long time ago. Although there are still some problems in the use of fantasy materialization, it's not a big problem. Compared to this, Orange, since you have all been sent to different eras, do you know where the others are now? Who else came? I don't think they are all here, right?"

"No, there are only a few people here. It's hard to gather everyone anyway, right? The only time our family can get together is during the Chinese New Year. Let me think... me, Meili, Gray, Lingyi... and two or three other people who have nothing to do, so there are about seven of us."

"By the way, besides helping you, Meili also made some special rules for us. You know, she likes to have fun no matter what."

As expected.

If I don't do this, I won't be Mary, but... there are only seven people, which is less than I expected.

"So, what are the rules?"

"The [seeds] that were sent to us are all competitors to each other. You can understand that all of us [seeds] are participants in the Holy Grail War."

Holy Grail War!

A magic ritual in which seven pairs of masters and servants compete for the wish-granting machine that will grant their wishes!

"Merry put on such a show...and she's doing it so normally!?"

"Right? Such a normal arrangement makes us all a little uneasy."

"But even though it's called the Holy Grail War, there's no Holy Grail for you to fight for in this world?"

"Yes, I have."

Aozaki Touko naturally hooked onto Natsukawa Tora's neck, and raised a carnivorous smile that showed she wanted to eat him up: "Aren't you our [cup]? First come, first served. I'll use it a few more times before someone else comes up and snatches it from me."

Natsukawa Tora: "...In terms of nature, you are the one, right? Orange."

"It seems so - besides, you just asked about the whereabouts of other people... I don't know about the others, but there is one person I have met before." Aozaki Touko crossed her legs, "Merry - although it's probably not the real person, just an agent or something, but I met her once before I came to Tenmei."

"She should be in an organization called World Serpent now."

Meili, in [World Snake]?

Xia Chuanhu frowned slightly. He seemed to have some impression of the World Snake organization, and something in his memory was indeed triggered, but there was no sign that he could remember it...Isn't the stimulation enough?

"You can find more on your own. Then let's go."

"Eh? Let's go, where are we going?"

"Go to your house. You said you have to take care of the kids and can't go to my house, so I have to go to your house - or did you kill those guys at your house and it's inconvenient to take me with you?"

"..."
