-----------------

The inner edge of the Einzbern Castle barrier.

Yukinoshita Yukino and Kira Yoshikage were standing on the side of the road, with a row of road signs on the right side of the road.

That was what Kiritsugu Emiya checked, and each road sign recorded the time he returned here.

Yukinoshita Yukino said softly:

"Kira-kun, let's begin."

Kira Yoshikage took the girl's hand and kissed it gently:

"Be careful and stay safe."

She actually lied to her sister.

She said before that there was no way to safely leave this barrier, but there actually is.

Kira-kun has the ability to go back in time.

As long as she used the Loser's Dust on them, even if they fell into the vortex of history and could not return when they left, she could still return to the time when she was still in Einzbern City by constantly going back in time.

But this ability has major limitations, such as being able to be used only three times a day.

In other words, you can only leave the barrier for three hours at most.

Because only within three hours can they be guaranteed to return to the barrier after three retracings. Otherwise, once this limit is exceeded, they will also be trapped in the vortex of time.

"call."

The girl carrying the dust of the loser walked out of the barrier and looked towards the road.

There were at least fifty road signs neatly arranged there, and the newest one had the time written on it:

1990 1 Month 7 Day.

"really."

The girl whispered.

They would make such attempts once a month, on the day Emiya Kiritsugu returned.

Because in the entire Einzbern Castle, only Emiya Kiritsugu can stably enter and exit the barrier on the same timeline, and every time he appears, the time inside and outside the barrier will become more stable, fixing the time on both sides to within ten years.

That's why Kira Yoshikage let him leave the barrier and asked him to return once a month.

Yukinoshita Yukino retreated back into the barrier, and Kira Yoshikage was no longer in her previous position.

The girl was not surprised by this. She looked to the right and there was no road sign there either.

What time is it?

Yukinoshita Yukino frowned slightly, even though the time she could be away from home could be stabilized at about ten years.

But the time inside was still chaotic, and even she didn't know what year it was here.

Without hesitation, Yukinoshita Yukino headed straight for the Einzbern Castle.

Although the loser Shichen can go back in time, each time he goes back in time, he will have to consume a life.

Therefore, you must ensure that there is someone around you every time you trace back, which means you must find that person within an hour.

The city of Einzbern was built in the wilderness, and it was difficult to find anyone within an hour's journey.

If you leave the barrier again, you will most likely be teleported to the time when it was just established a thousand years ago. At that time, there were almost no people around, and it would be very difficult to find people in the outside world.

If she can't find anyone for more than three hours, she will never be able to return.

Fortunately.

There are plenty of people in the city of Einzbern.

"who?!"

The maid guarding the castle with a huge axe noticed the intruder and tried to stop her while scolding her. Yukinoshita Yukino did not resist but let the huge axe hit her, but was blocked by the big pink cat with one hand.

"Did you see me?"

BOOM!

Everything that happened before was swallowed up by the explosion, and time flew backwards.

at last.

The scene freezes on Irisviel's room.

Boom!

The maid knocked on the door and walked into the room, saying respectfully:

"Ma'am, Master Yoshikage, Mr. Emiya is back."

"Yukino."

Kira Yoshikage turned around and whispered the girl's name.

Yukinoshita Yukino shook her head imperceptibly.

Chapter 214 Gaia: You are a little too extreme!

pure white.

Only pure white.

Flawless white.

This is the outside of the world, the starting point of all things in the world, zero, the origin, the cause of everything, the Akashic Record, and the "root" that magicians want to reach throughout their lives.

But for Altair, she could reach the outside of the world at any time.

Because she was born from the root, returning here is like going home.

It's just that compared to staying at the source, she would rather stay in reality.

Because her parents were there.

Even if she occasionally returns to the outside world, she will not try to read the "records" stored in the root.

For those who were eager to enter the "Root", this was undoubtedly a shameful waste. But Altair was much more sober than them. Although she had the qualifications to read the "records", she also knew that she could not bear this "qualification".

Omniscience and omnipotence are neither a privilege nor a gift to her, but a curse.

So she just walked through it, looking for the "dimension" that needed anchoring and exploration.

Looking for her father.

If all goes well, their paths will cross again, but it never does.

Although she has anchored the "dimension" where her father is, she has been unable to reconcile it with reality.

She has realized that someone is secretly obstructing her, and the only one who can do all this is...

"Alaya."

"Gaia!"

A planet-like blue ball of light appeared in the pure white world, surrounded by two constantly moving halos.

And beside Him—

"Gaia?"

Altair looked at the little girl with long black hair, red lips and white teeth with some surprise.

"it's me."

The little girl smiled slightly to show her friendliness. "For humans, this form is more conducive to our communication. Hora, Alaya, you should do the same as me."

"reject."

A clear but emotionless and cold voice came from the blue light ball.

Altair watched their interaction quietly, with no ripples in his heart.

They are the restraining force, the safety device of the world formed by the collective unconscious.

The "restraining power of primates" comes from the unconsciousness of human beings, the "Alaya" that seeks to avoid the destruction of mankind.

The "restraining force of the planet" comes from the unconscious part of the planet's will, "Gaia", which pursues the survival of the planet.

Neither Alaya nor Gaia has a physical form of its own, and only the corresponding form appears when it is materialized.

In other words, the form they display depends on what form others want to see.

You think they are balls of light, and the form in which they appear is that of cold, heartless balls of icy light.

You think they are loli, and the form they appear in is that of petite, cute, and soft loli.

and so.

No matter what personality or appearance they display, it is meaningless. Their actions are based only on the fundamental purpose of maintaining their existence:

Gaia is responsible for protecting the earth, and Alaya is responsible for protecting mankind.

Gaia would rather destroy humanity than protect the earth, and Alaya would rather sacrifice the earth than protect humanity.

But generally speaking, both aim to prolong the present world, appear at the moment when the factor that will destroy the world occurs, and erase this factor.

So without exception, they all forbid humans from reaching the "Source" because it will lead to the destruction of humanity and the planet.

But although they are a restraining force and may be omniscient, they are far from omnipotent, otherwise there would be no need to make an effort to stop them.

Just like Altair.

She walked freely on the outside of the world, but neither of them stopped her, because they could not stop things born from the Source from returning to the Source.

And when they appear at the same time, it means that what they are doing now is to prevent the destruction of the world (humankind)!

Clang!

Altair manifested a saber in his hand and placed the Bobosha on his shoulder with a cold expression:

"So, you are here to kill me?"

She is no match for the two restraining forces now, but that doesn't mean she can only be slaughtered.

She just didn't want to borrow the power of the root, not that she couldn't use it. If she really had to fight to the death, she would never lose to anyone!

No matter who it was, she was sure that she would die together with Him.

Although the world's restraining force cannot be completely eliminated, the root does not stipulate that the world's restraining force must be them!

"calm,"

The surface of the light ball of Alaya's incarnation was clearly pulsating, and Gaia also tried to dissuade him:

"We don't want to be your enemy."

"Then why did you stop me?"

"Not to stop it."

Gaia tried to ease the situation and calm her down:

"We won't keep stopping you, it's just not time yet."

Alaya's tone was still cold and ruthless:

"His existence is the biggest obstacle to the future of mankind and must be removed!"

"I beg you to stop talking!"

Gaia was so angry that he wanted to jump up and hit Alaya's knee, even though this ball of light had no knees.

Altair remained unmoved by the farce, his saber already placed on the Bopsa.

Alaya also refused to give in. The halo around the light ball became more and more active and began to expand outwards continuously.

"Calm down! Everyone, calm down!"

Gaia waved her hands in an attempt to calm the two parties down. "There is no irreconcilable conflict between us. When Alaya said to remove him, he just hoped that he would no longer hinder future development!"

"so?"

Altair asked back, his saber ready to pluck the notes.
