Shirou Emiya doesn't want to work overtime

At this moment, Illya could only sit there and watch the ruby ​​that she had finally encountered being taken away by the other party.

"Ruby--" Illya murmured softly and stood up with difficulty.

······

Endsworth's house, study.

Darius sat in a wheelchair, walked to the window and looked into the distance.

"Om-!"

A purple vortex of magic emerged from Darius's pupils, and the pupils of a seagull flying in the sky in the distance were also flashing purple light like Darius's pupils.

When an extremely powerful vortex of magic emerged from that direction, causing endless light to leak out from the window, Danic felt it.

"The shape of the coastline has changed again." He murmured softly, constantly scanning the situation in the outside world.

"Really? No matter how weak this world is, there has to be a limit."

Feeling the world gradually withering away, his expression turned serious.

"There are only two sections left in the Holy Grail Ceremony."

"Two more days, two more days, and the ceremony will be completed."

Clearly everything was going according to the story, but for some reason, he felt a sense of uneasiness in his heart.

It's impossible that Emiya Shirou could come here from that world.

"The third world."

Darius gripped the handle of his wheelchair tightly, lost in thought.

"Why isn't his world connected?"

This is the question Darius has been thinking about after arriving in Illya's world and learning that Illya's brother is also Shirou Emiya.

At first he thought that the other party was Shirou Emiya from Illya's world, who came to their world because of the Holy Grail or because of the class card.

But the final result told Darius that Shirou Emiya was from the third world.

This is not logical at all.

"How exactly does he travel through the world?"

After all, Emiya Shirou is the only one outside of his story, and he has no ability to control him within the story. Even though they are no longer in the same world, he is extremely wary of him.

Darius kept thinking.

He came to the library and looked through the materials, hoping to find other magic or treasures that could allow him to travel through the world, besides replacement magic, from the books he had not read before.

At this moment, there was a knock on the door from behind Darius.

Then, a cold voice came in.

"Will the ritual really remain unaffected if Miyu isn't used?"

This voice awakened Darius from his deep thoughts.

So Darius turned around and looked behind him.

Outside the door, Angelica, who had already dealt with matters in the Endsworth castle, stood at the door.

"The best scenario would be to use Meiyou to perform this Holy Grail ritual. After all, it is the Holy Grail of nature, so it must be more stable."

In response, Darius could only sigh softly.

Illya and Kuro are artificial life forms that are the Holy Grail.

Their bodies have been subjected to countless magical treatments since the moment they appeared in their mother's womb, and their body structures have been completely replaced by components that are even less human than their mother's.

From the moment of birth, the purpose of the body has been limited, and the body can be said to be the crystallization of magic circuits.

As a small-scale Holy Grail, as long as Illya wants it and has enough magic power, she can make it happen even if she doesn't understand the process.

When Miyu was born, she had the ability to grant human wishes indiscriminately and because of her innate ability, it can be said that she was born with the complete Holy Grail.

Rather than saying that she is a human with the functions of the Holy Grail, it is better to say that she is the Holy Grail with the personality of a human.

No matter from which aspect, Miyu is better than Illya and Kuro, who are also Holy Grails.

"But the world won't give us so much time—" After saying this, Darius looked up at the gray sky again, his expression showing sadness.

Chapter 1034 Another World

The Endsworths, Erica's bedroom.

Illya was sitting on the bed, dragging her somewhat tired body. She curled up into a ball with her head buried in her knees, making it impossible to see her face at all.

confused.

Extremely confused.

"Even if you go out, you can never go back?"

She didn't understand why the other party was so sure, but Illya could feel that the other party was not lying, or rather, he simply didn't bother to lie.

The lost class was stuck on Ishtar, and even the ruby ​​that he had finally encountered was taken away by Ishtar.

She was now in a weak state due to the explosion of magic power. Even though she had two class cards in her hand, she had no idea what to do at this moment.

We can only wait for Xiao Hei to come and discuss it.

"Sister Illya, what are you doing?"

Just at this moment, a crisp voice came from the door, interrupting Illya's thoughts.

At some point, Erica came back and stood at the door of the room.

But it is true that it is already late, and Illya has eaten the lunch brought by Hei, who is dressed in a maid outfit, and time is approaching dusk.

"I was just daydreaming." Illya looked at Erica with a wry smile. She really wanted to tell her that she missed home and wanted to leave.

"Eh, is that so? I thought Illya-sister was angry because I didn't bring her out to play."

Erica also jumped up, flew onto the bed, and lay down next to Illya.

"Of course not. After all, it's not up to you to decide." Illya looked at Erica, whose face was filled with joy, and felt even more depressed: "Did Erica go to play with her classmates?"

At the beginning, Erica also told Illya that they were going to school to play. There is not only the elementary school of Hogunhara Academy in Fuyuki City, there are other elementary schools, it’s just that Hogunhara Academy is the most famous.

Most people in Fuyuki City read all the way up.

"No, I went to school just because I was interested in it as a lady. Besides, that school has been abandoned long ago." Erica rolled slightly towards Illya while lying on the bed.

"Abandoned school?" Illya frowned. There shouldn't be any abandoned schools in Fuyuki City now, at least not in her memory.

Although she didn't know why, Illya subconsciously thought she was still in Fuyuki City.

He was clearly unconscious when he was kidnapped, and it is possible that he was taken directly to another city, or even another country.

But Illya didn't think too much about it, or she didn't think about it at all.

"What's the name of the school?"

"A certain elementary school. Did Sister Illya also study there?"

Erica opened her eyes wide and stared at Illya, as if she wanted to get a positive answer from her.

"No, I just remember that this school seems to be still open?" Illya shook her head, then looked at Erica, and said seriously, "Are you sure it's a certain elementary school?"

"Of course! It was abandoned a few years ago. I go there often. A lady's memory will never be wrong!" Erica pouted, seeming very dissatisfied with Illya's questioning.

"Feel sorry--"

"It's okay, Sister Illya." Erica smiled and said innocently, "After all, Sister Illya is no longer in her own world. Although the two worlds have many similarities, there are also many differences. I am actually looking forward to Sister Illya's world as well."

"It's just that my father never took me there, for fear that something unexpected might happen—"

"I'm no longer in my own world. What does this mean?" Illya's face turned pale in an instant. She stared at Erica blankly, and her brain stopped working instantly.

"It means you're not in your own world!" Erica tilted her head, seeming puzzled as to why Illya didn't understand what she was saying.

"Wait, the Endsworth family seems to be in the world where Miyu is." Illya's whole body began to tremble, and she whispered: "Can I still return to my own world?"

"That shouldn't be possible. Dad won't let sisters Illya and Chloe go back." Erica stared at Illya with her innocent, gem-blue eyes and gave her an answer that made her extremely desperate.

"I can never go back, is that so?"

Illya suddenly understood why Tōsaka Tokiomi said that they could never go back.

She also understood that the Endsworth family felt like they were imprisoning her, but were so lenient with her because no matter how hard she struggled, it was all in vain, as she could not possibly have the ability to travel through the world like Darius.

I can only stay here forever.

dad.

mom.

brother.

And what about Sera, Liz, Miyu, Toosaka, and the others? Will I never see them again?

Tears flowed out of Illya's eyes uncontrollably.

"Sister Illya, why are you crying!" Seeing Illya suddenly burst into tears, Erica seemed very flustered. She had never expected that just a few words from her would make Sister Illya cry.

I am obviously younger than sister Illya, but sister Illya is indeed a crybaby.

Illya had no idea that she had suddenly been defined as a crybaby by Erica, but when she thought that she would never see her family and friends again, she couldn't stop her tears.

"It's okay, I just thought of something sad." Illya hugged Erica. She wanted to scold her, but she was just an innocent child.

It can even be said that because of staying in the Endsworth family, Illya can feel that the other party's values ​​are distorted.

"Really? You're so old but still crying. You need to learn more from me as a lady!"

Erica also reached out and hugged Illya to comfort her, never thinking that she would always have tears in her eyes every time she encountered some setbacks.

After a long time, Illya calmed down a little.

"Sister Illya, it was too late yesterday, and I haven't introduced my friends to you yet?" Saying this, as if to comfort Illya, Erica got out of bed, stood up, and walked towards the closet on the side.

"Oh!"

Erica tried very hard to open the closed cabinet, but it was difficult to open it with her strength. It should be said that the handle was not suitable for her height, so she couldn't exert force well.

When she found that she couldn't open the cabinet door, Erica immediately pouted, blushed, and looked at Illya with tearful eyes.

"Absolutely! Never help Erica open the cabinet!"

······

Illya said she was still as awkward as ever, but she just sighed slightly and helped Erika open the closet door.

“Ding ding ding!!! This is the doll I have been collecting. It is very precious!”

She was afraid that Beatrice would kidnap her dolls again, so she asked Angelica to hide all of them in this cabinet. Now was a good time for them to show their skills.

"There's no doll inside—"

Illya looked at the empty cabinet and slowly reminded.

"Ahhhhhhh!!!!!!"

Erica let out a scream like a shout.

Chapter 1035: The Stolen Doll

Facing the empty cabinet, Erica's throat trembled and she sobbed continuously, with tears falling drop by drop from the corners of her eyes.

"Erika is not crying. Erika doesn't care about these dolls at all!" She looked at Illya very stubbornly.

This is not a look of indifference at all.

Illya complained in her heart, but if these dolls were missing, the only person she could think of was Beatrice, and she was the only one who would take Erica's dolls.

"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu"

Seeing Erica's painful appearance, Illya couldn't help but feel soft-hearted. After all, she is the elder sister.

"Let's go find Beatrice and get your doll back."

"No! It will be very dangerous if you go over there, Sister Illya!" Tears flashed in the corners of Erica's eyes. She looked at Illya. Even though she cared about her dolls very much, Erica still stopped her at this time.
