People are in Type-Moon, but they practice science

Magic power began to rise on the simulated battlefield, and the restless waves spread in all directions.

Chloe took the lead and drew her bow and arrow, "Fake..."

hiss.

A tiny existence came at a very fast speed. Unlike the magical girls' bold movements, it did not rush to show its presence, like death winding out from the undetectable deep darkness.

Chloe once used Qin Xuan's equipment to release etheric threads, but it was also left to the lepton aggregate to calculate on its own. She herself only had "cognition" of it, not "mastery".

Therefore, when the sword in Ryougi Shiki's hand was first made by Qin Xuan, and then developed by the armed forces within three years, the performance of the soul steel in the blade was greatly enhanced. Ryougi Shiki also became thoroughly familiar with this weapon in the past three years, and used it as if it were his own arm. Overall, it fits Ryougi Shiki's style, and its concealment, ductility, speed, hardness and other indicators are completely extraordinary.

As for sharpness, it is not necessary. Ryougi Shiki only needs to be able to "see" the opponent and cut him.

and so--

From the dark, collapsing tall building, the deadly thin wires suddenly broke out silently - Chloe and Miyu did not know the true nature of Ryougi Shiki's ability, so they could not guess that various obstacles would not be a hindrance to Ryougi Shiki. It was obviously a problem that could be solved with weapons and countless soul steel wires, so who could stop it?

hiss--

There was a tiny discordant sound mixed in with the huge reverberation of magic, but the one who could detect this step in advance was Chloe, who had a sharper perception and was familiar with this kind of silk weapon.

"boom."

It wasn't the sound of something falling, but Chloe found that the bow in her hand was broken, with tiny scratches appearing on her bow, her spirit clothes, and her entire front -

"--beautiful……"

Chloe didn't even have time to utter a complete scream. When she realized that the attack came from the front, the only thing she could do was to remind Miyu and turn the pseudo-pseudo spiral sword that had not been activated and shoot it at Miyu.

Because the bow began to break, Chloe's spiral sword only hit Miyu's hand as she was preparing the ritual, knocking the lightning axe in the form of a magic wand in her hand off balance, which happened to affect the continuation of the ritual.

Miyu turned her head away, unaware of the crisis and unable to properly understand Chloe's warning.

But she didn't have time to wonder, because when she turned around and saw Chloe, Chloe disintegrated.

Literally disintegrating.

"—"

The bow was completely destroyed, the spiritual clothes were torn into pieces, and the body seemed to have lost its inherent human structure. From the skin to the flesh to the bones, layer by layer it lost its inherent shape and order, as if the gods had cursed it to death. All organs and tissue systems were struck into the realm of death in an instant, and the functions of things were disintegrated without leaving anything behind. This was simply the ability that only the god of death could have.

Or is it that Chloe, as a pseudo-spirit being, as an "existence structure" that is not a living person, is more familiar with the god of death?

"........."

Miyu couldn't judge. She didn't have the ability or extra perception to judge, she needed to escape - not just escape, she needed more information to judge and determine the enemy's true identity.

Fortunately, Miyu's protective suit had been in acceleration mode, so with a loud thunder, Miyu rushed out of the building area and escaped to a height beyond the top floors of various buildings.

Here... I can't confirm it yet... Not to mention leaving the enemy's attack range, at least it should increase the difficulty of the enemy's attack.

Miyu was constantly on the lookout for attacks that were difficult to observe, no, difficult to react to. At the same time, she also began to compile intelligence.

"Gray-sister said, 'Don't touch'... Does that mean the other way around, don't let the enemy touch you?"

Chapter 240 Madam, why are you back?

"Because he's a god of death, he's dead if I touch him? No, with a god's strength, I can only run away. It's useless for combat training. There should be a way. Or maybe he's not a god..."

Miyu was high in the sky, thinking.

"Whoosh-"

A sharp sound of breaking through the air was heard. It was several soul steel wires. This time it was not silent, because this time Miyu flew directly into the sky. It was not as simple as just now when the two of them stood directly at the door of the building. It was a bit troublesome.

But it was just a little troublesome. In the process of defeating the Dead Apostles, Ryougi Shiki had seen countless Dead Apostles perform tricks to escape that were not described in the intelligence, such as "breaking themselves into particles and escaping through the phenomenon of dispersion". Escapes like this flying escape were just a piece of cake.

In order to launch the attack high into the sky, Ryougi Shiki sacrificed stealth in exchange for speed and range.

By the time Miyu reacted, the thin line that faintly conveyed the meaning of death was only a few meters away from her.

"Ugh...!"

The high-intensity silk thread shooting was accompanied by a sharp sound that was enough to hurt one's eardrums, but if it were just that, Miyu could still barely bear it. It was just that she had never had such knowledge before. The enemy's attack was in the form of silk threads, fired at multiple angles, blocking her many transfer routes in a surprise attack.

If the incoming attack is some kind of slow, but long, straight-line attack, then perhaps there is no need to dodge, and you can just do a "graze" action like Illya dodged Caster's beam cannon group.

However, the nature of this is completely different from that of a light cannon. If the thin wire is regarded as an object that cannot be touched, the difficulty of "grazing" it will be greatly increased. This kind of silk thread is not as large a target as a light cannon and is obviously easy to dodge. What's more, the distance is too close. Even if the space for dodging is analyzed, it will be too late.

By this time, Miyu had almost connected the information. The enemy's attack was a kind of long-range metal wire, but this wire had a "one-hit kill" effect and must be completely avoided without any contact.

Otherwise, even if she was slightly touched, it was possible that a part of her body would be "killed", affecting her combat effectiveness, and then she would be close to death.

"Sonic mode——"

Therefore, since she couldn't dodge, Miyu planned to use a temporary frontal attack to indirectly offset the enemy's attack on her vital parts.

When the threads were about to touch within a few meters, Miyu's protective suit gushed out a large amount of magical energy, with golden lightning interweaving on it.

"There's no time to build a magic bullet, so I'll just use pure energy output to cancel it out!"

Miyu released a large amount of golden magic lightning, which collided head-on with a large number of silk threads shot by the enemy, instantly disrupting the direction of the silk threads.

"Good! This will work--"

It seemed to be effective, however, before Miyu could relax, a force came from the other end of the thread. Under the control of Ryougi Shiki on the other side, the thread swayed, and the top directly turned in a direction and pounced on the unprotected part of Miyu's body.

"Oops!"

Although Miyu wanted to defend against Ryougi Shiki's counterattack in time, the target of the thread was not her, but the radiant wings at Miyu's hands and feet that supported her body's movement at the speed of sound.

——Ryougi Shiki had already figured out the power principle of this protective suit in a short period of time.

The flaw was exposed, and when the soul steel wire cut through Miyu's wings of light, the disadvantage, no, defeat was irreversible. Her protective suit, which she relied on to form the accelerated action technique, was destroyed, and the wings of light turned into star-like fragments. Then, without the support of the power source, she began to fall inevitably.

However, Miyu could never touch the solid ground.

Because more soul steel wires, like relentless and merciless, surrounded her from below. She was like a prey that fell helplessly into a big net, being constantly "touched" and disintegrated by the high-speed attacking wires.

Before Miyu lost consciousness, she saw a woman with strange and terrifying eyes standing on the roof of a building.

Those were eyes that could bring forth terrifying power like the judgment of God.

----------

While the three elementary school students were struggling hard in Ryougi Shiki's hands, in the real world, Toosaka Rin and Luvia were working overtime to confirm the time it would take to complete the leyline project.

"Huh? So, it seems that we don't need to wait until all the cards are collected?" Toosaka Rin once again checked the direction of the recent distortion of the earth veins. Although there are still two cards left that have not been recovered, the distortion phenomenon caused by the mirror world has been reduced a lot in scale.

It basically meets the start-up needs of Party A (Qin Xuan).

"Well, that's natural," Luvia is not as busy as Toosaka Rin, mainly because she is not as familiar with the veins of Fuyuki as Toosaka Rin, and this is also Toosaka Rin's responsibility. Luvia is only responsible for directing the engineers to do their work. This is the power of capital (tactical retreat).

"It seems like they took a little while this time—"

At this stage when the two of them had nothing to say, Luvia wanted to ask about the current situation of the little girls, but there was a knock on the door.

"Dong dong dong."

It was August the butler.

"What's the matter?" Luvia thought that it was not meal time and there were no other reservations, so it seemed that she had encountered some unexpected situation.

"Miss, Miss Lin, we have a visitor."

"Huh? Who?"

"She claims to be the mistress of the Einzbern family... Miss, the Einzbern family is the one that lives across the street." Butler August explained.

"Einzbern, so it's Illya's—"

Toosaka Rin and Luvia realized something at the same time. Toosaka Rin then quickly packed up the geomagnetic diagram materials and walked out of the room with Luvia.

After a while, the living room.

"Oh my, I heard that - the two ladies were the ones who helped Illya and entertained Illya during this period... is that right?" A noble lady who had a similar face to Illya, but was more mature and had a more graceful figure, smiled and talked to Luvia and Toosaka Rin.

"I guess so..." Toosaka Rin thought of the sad experiences before and said in a complicated tone.

But this is not the point at all. The key point is, how come this lady who Illya said "seldom comes back a few times a year" suddenly came back! ?

Uh, uh, how should I explain it when Chloe comes out later?

Chapter 241 Let me tell you about Illya's childhood

Some time ago. In front of Illya's house.

"lady?"

Sera opened the door and found that the person knocking was Irisviel who had not returned for a long time.

"You're back? I thought it would take some time." Sera stepped aside and led Irisviel into the house. She was a little surprised for a moment, but soon Sera guessed: it should be that the lady noticed the change in Illya.

"Oh oh oh! It's Sera. As expected of you, you are always so diligent in doing things!" Irisviel's personality seems to be quite lively, even too lively. Shirou Emiya and Sera at home have been teased by her many times.

As expected, Alice Phil saw Sera preparing dinner and something seemed to be stewing in the kitchen, so she immediately went back to the kitchen after receiving her.

Irisviel walked to the side and was surprised to find that Shirou Emiya was not in the kitchen. How could he, who was good at cooking, not go to help Sera?

"Hey! Shirou, Sera was busy. How strange that you didn't help?"

Emiya Shirou was also surprised by Irisviel's return and hurriedly greeted her before explaining hesitantly, "Well, how should I put it? Sera said this is her 'territory' and it would be wrong for me to interfere without permission."

It's not like he didn't try to show off his cooking skills. After all, Sera would always come home late and not have time to cook. However, such behavior was scolded by Sera afterwards, saying that he had taken her position and made her lose her duty. She even said that Shirou must have ulterior motives...

Shirou Emiya felt that Sera's desire to control her responsibilities might have reached a pathological level, otherwise how could she have such a clear understanding?

"Ah, so that's how it is!" Irisviel didn't say anything. Although she was the owner of this house, she was not always at home. She would leave these details to them to deal with. Hmm... Compared to this, she was more concerned about another thing. "Hey, it's time to go home from school, right? Where's Illya?"

"Ah, yes," Emiya Shirou answered, "Illya finished school a long time ago. She went to a classmate's house today and won't be back for dinner."

"Oh, it seems that Illya has always been very popular in school!" Irisviel was quite pleased about this, "Shirou, do you know where her classmate's home is? Is it far?"

"Well, although it's a classmate's house, it's actually someone who lives nearby... It's the one across from our house."

“Wow! So that’s actually the home of Illya’s classmate!” Irisviel exclaimed, “Such a big house, and the garden is as big as a park, right? I saw it across from my home when I just came back, and I almost thought I went to the wrong place because I hadn’t been home for so long!”

"That's right. I don't know why, but I can't remember when the house was built. It seems like it just appeared out of nowhere..."

Shirou Emiya was still talking when he noticed that Irisviel had suddenly disappeared. "Hey, where's she?"

--------

So, Irisviel left home excitedly and came to the Edfelt family mansion.

Luvia and Toosaka Rin were unsure about the identity of this lady, but they also didn't want to be disrespectful to Illya's mother, so they could only entertain her for the time being and chat about nothing.

“Oh! I’m a little embarrassed to say this, you must be new neighbors, right?” Irisviel bowed to the two people, surprising Luvia and Toosaka Rin to stand up as well. “According to etiquette, I should bring you some gifts, but I came here in a hurry and I really don’t have time to prepare.”

"Oh, haha, so that's how it is. Madam, don't mind it." Luvia didn't know much about the souvenir rules in Japan, nor did she like this place very much. She made a gesture to Toosaka Rin, indicating that she should let her talk.

"Come to think of it, Madam, as Illya's mother, you must be here to ask about Illya's situation. I am actually Illya-san - Miyu's elder sister. As for Illya, it turns out that Rin-san, who takes care of her more, knows more about her!"

"Tsk." Toosaka Rin listened to Luvia's words to divert the focus, but it was not appropriate to argue with Luvia here, so she had to follow her gaze and perform.

"Ah, yes, that's right! Illya... has made great progress. Not only has she done well in studies and sports, she has also asked me for advice on knowledge from middle school. She has been very diligent and hardworking recently, and has learned a lot..."

Toosaka Rin is not unfamiliar with this. When facing parents, all she has to do is blow up her child in front of them, blowing him up to the sky as hard as she can. This will guarantee that the parents' emotions and attitudes will change from gloomy to sunny, and their approval of you will instantly increase by several percentage points.

"Oh, really? That's great~!"

As it turned out, Irisviel was very fond of this and immediately became sunny and bright. She said, "My daughter Illya is the best," and followed the rhythm of the topic to praise Illya, and her words were even more exaggerated than those of Toosaka Rin.

Luvia and Toosaka Rin felt a little uneasy. Wasn't it a bit... smack of three adults praising an elementary school student together?

Forget it. Now that I think about it, Illya is really not an ordinary elementary school student. What ordinary elementary school student has such great magic power! She can even split into a sister! And she has the support of the mysterious cross-world organization boss! Madam, you don’t have any hidden background, do you?

Next, Irisviel completely treated the two of them as good friends who were both "Illya fans", and couldn't help but enthusiastically tell Toosaka Rin and Luvia the story of Illya's childhood.

"Hey, let me tell you, when Illya was little, when she was just born, she only had—"

"--Mother!"

A hurried voice sounded. The one who addressed her so directly was none other than Illya.

Illya ran quickly into the living room. She and her friends had just finished the extremely difficult "Two-Risotto Trial Program" - of course they had not passed it, so they would have to come back tomorrow to try again.

She had a bad feeling when she heard from the old butler that Toosaka Rin and elder sister Luvia were in the living room receiving someone who claimed to be her mother.

"Mom, don't tell everything to others!"

Illya came running in angrily, with Miyu and Chloe still behind.

“Oh! I finally get to see our lovely daughter.” Irisviel stood up and opened her arms. “Come, let me hug you! My dear daughter has become more beautiful recently!”
