Chapter 354: Silence is Chaldea Tonight (Please Refresh)

~13 min read 2,562 words

The morning two days later.

The only supplier for the Veil of Heaven Chamber of Commerce outside of industrial assembly lines, the rising superstar of the God City catering industry, the pure-love war god from the widely acclaimed film "Forbidden Zone: Seal Released," Su Lin's exclusive contract performance provider No. 1, and a partner of justice who—unknown to himself—has gained the innate skill "High Jump."

—Emiya Emiya Shirou.

Currently feeling a family atmosphere he had never enjoyed at his current age, a family atmosphere known as "marriage pressure."

"Ma'am..." Emiya Emiya Shirou saw the aggrieved expression on the other party's face and hurriedly corrected himself: "Mom."

"I just really wanted to see Illya in a wedding dress before returning to Chaldea." Irisviel sat on the tatami mat holding Illya, smiling:

"Emiya Shirou, you were clearly acting like you would go to war with the world for Illya's sake, so why have you changed now that marriage is mentioned?"

Warm-toned light hit every corner of the room. Emiya Emiya Shirou knelt, subconsciously looking toward the door crack to the side, where three pairs of eyes immediately pulled back.

It was peeping so low-level it couldn't be lower; if they wanted to watch, they should just come in.

Irisviel looked around the room, gazing at those posters, and said:

Passing through the corridor, Emiya arrived at the island cave-heaven that had ended its "eternal" state.

The Servants were leaving the place in an orderly fashion. Although individual Servants had faded to the point of looking like burnt-out ash, overall, this summer event was still held successfully.

"Hahaha..." Fujimaru Ritsuka laughed awkwardly, "I'll go train first."

"This is your last apocalypse, Lord Creator of the Foreign Realm."

"A month, right?" Houraisan Kaguya glanced at the mountain-like snack packaging beside her:

Surrounded in the center, the Fool Mr. Illya, who was stirring milk and black tea with a large silver spoon, crossed his legs, leisurely picked up the drip coffee cup, and took a gentle sip.

"That?" Fujimaru Ritsuka laughed: "It's a TV series. We'll take it to the cafeteria to play or put it in the database later. It seems to be a low-budget production."

"Want to listen to music?" He elegantly extended an invitation to the "Servants" around him: "The sound of the heavens, a big disc, songs very popular in the outer universe."

"The changing room at the beach, just came out."

"Contradictory topics must have one truth and one lie." Yu Ping looked at Houraisan Kaguya, who was playing "Memories Off," and suddenly laughed when he saw her walk into a Bad Ending:

"Or if you're interested, you can come to our place for a trip."

A bit of magical energy input...

"That room too, it's about the same as a bridal chamber."

"You really are interesting." The shadows on BB were fading, and the red light in her eyes gradually dimmed:

"How long have you spent here?"

"It would be even better if there weren't those annoying noises." BB's mouth hooked into an exaggerated smile:

Should he take that hand?

"......"

The room was plastered with posters from when the movie was filmed, and merchandise was displayed on the counter. Without exception, those posters were all close-up shots of Emiya Emiya Shirou and Illya being intimate, and there were even 2D-style painted versions.

"Well then, I should return to Chaldea~" BB stretched, waved at Illya:

From then on, Illya chatted calmly with these "Descenders." As he had deduced, these existences had their active interference influenced, or rather, their accumulated power was restricted by something.

"Next time, we'll prepare a door so you can come in."

This was a disguised inquiry, wanting to get an answer from Emiya Emiya Shirou. Clearly, as the 'mother,' she could not accept the 'adopted son' saying such ambiguous things to her most beloved daughter.

"I just wanted to ask where Jeanne is."

"Master, want to come sit together?" BB extended an invitation to Fujimaru Ritsuka:

When in Fuyuki, she hadn't successfully copied it at the computer store in the shopping street.

"The Gensokyo Paradise Plan won't work~" Houraisan Kaguya said without raising her head: "Dame yo~ Dame~"

"BB," who was in the shadows with evil red light in her eyes.

The feelings between family members are just that miraculous; the bond never breaks, it only stretches due to the distance of time and space.

"Mom, the age on Su Lin's ID card isn't an adult yet." Emiya Emiya Shirou added.

"Leaving now... Sorry to bother everyone."

Perhaps it was the Fourth Calamity simulation device, or more likely the blocking effect of the chat group, that made these existences curious about the unknown.

An old record player appeared, and Illya placed the disc into the machine.

The Human Order Preservation Organization—what exactly was kept in this organization? Friendly Outer Gods?

In the Imaginary Sea, the imaginary submarine docked at a position extremely close to the world line named "Emiya Emiya Shirou Line."

She handed Emiya Emiya Shirou's hand toward Irisviel, a faint smile hanging on her lips.

Yang Yang Guifei, surrounded by multiple Flame Spirits.

"Ask you something..."

Three seconds later...

When time was up, the Servants' personalities regained dominance. Of course, some Servants weren't affected; they just stopped by to pass him a message.

"Speaking of which, I'm not some old hag; as a Hourai person, I am truly forever seventeen. Do you think I would care about age?"

"Good work~." Fujimaru Ritsuka greeted the Chaldea staff passing by.

Moreover, the power they could use to interfere with this universe was also limited.

"I'm curious, what does He think of our arrival?"

Otherwise, he would have to exit the game at this time, forcing a network connection interruption.

He didn't agree directly; even with the player identity created by the Fourth Calamity Simulator, he didn't want to be exploited by these existences in his language.

But just looking at the layout of this room, and the long silver hair Irisviel had just found on Emiya Emiya Shirou's pillow, Irisviel knew that no matter how he refuted it at this time, it would be wrong.

"I only spread chaos." A Flame Spirit swam in the air: "Weakling, you should know who we are."

"White, big."

'I hate riddle-mongers.'

What exactly is stored in the brain of a NEET whose age might be calculated in the billions...

"Let me see." Da Vinci took the box of discs and looked at it, suddenly frowning. Her finger pointed to the outer shell of the box: "There seems to be some magic carved on it, is it... is it an array?"

Illya smiled, gazing at the keyhole on the girl's forehead, and seemed to hear an indescribable sound in his ears.

"Spiritron transfer complete."

"The taste is not bad, still missing some honey."

Emiya Emiya Shirou's figure disappeared from the spot, but Houraisan Kaguya raised her head, looking at the place where Emiya had just stood, slightly surprised:

The surrounding tea table, desk lamp, TV, and other furniture grew deformed flesh and tentacles. The mouth of the iron kettle on the stove opened and closed with the heat, and a blue flame grew a hand, lifted the iron kettle, and sent it near the long-legged tea cup.

The iron kettle opened an eye to observe the surroundings, then poured boiling tea into the tea cup.

"Don't call me a dog!!!"

And Emiya Emiya Shirou, holding Irisviel's hand, was somewhat depressed. For this mother who wasn't his own mother, Emiya Emiya Shirou still had a deep reluctance to part.

"Hehe." After a light laugh, the surrounding anomalies quickly disappeared. In the blink of an eye, the living room of the Emiya house returned to normal.

"Hoo—hoo—"

In the excited gazes of the three girls in front, in Emiya Emiya Shirou's eyes which weren't very satisfied with the answer, and in the satisfied smile of the Dark God passing through the gaps of history.

"Eternal... so that's how you can see traces? No wonder they all call you the Cheat Brother."

"Your resistance is unimaginably strong. Want to have a drink?"

Emiya smiled slightly: "Is that so? I'm looking forward to it."

"Su Lin, although it might be a bit pushy to say so, as a mother, I hope Emiya Emiya Shirou can get the future he wants." Irisviel stopped her steps, her crimson eyes looking at Emiya Emiya Shirou, saying:

"By the way, Da Vinci, if you have time, help me copy it. I'll return it to Miss Rin next time."

There, Emiya wore a classical robe, holding a pure white cross in his hand, standing on the sea:

"Ah~ this is art!" Van Gogh widened his eyes.

Usually, he had to train, and unless he trained to the point of exhaustion, he had time to watch some entertainment programs stored in the Chaldea database before sleep or during meals.

Katsushika Hokusai with sea waves and illusions around her.

"Leave it to me."

Illya took a jar of honey from the air, but the moment the jar was taken out, it showed a certain degree of alienation.

"Goodbye, great~ Fool Mr."

"The Lord says..."

As the Servants left one after another, Abigail, who wanted to drink another cup of milk tea, remained in the living room.

"Su Lin will be fine. Although that person isn't willing to show his face this time, I will definitely bring him as a witness at the wedding."

"Su Lin will be responsible for Emiya Emiya Shirou, right?" Irisviel teased: "Even if it's a harem, you can't neglect Emiya Emiya Shirou."

—"Have you remembered from the reincarnation of the past? Our ally."

"That's too early for me." Emiya Emiya Shirou said, holding his head.

Fujimaru Ritsuka shook her head violently, then saw the long-legged tea cup jump onto the table.

And on the beach in the south of the island, Jeanne, who had been walking barefoot on the seawater with a leisurely posture, suddenly looked behind her.

When Fujimaru Ritsuka finished counting the spoils of war that had been farmed by Brother Zhu Ge Liang and other Servants, she arrived at the living room.

"White white? Big small?"

Emiya passed by Cu Chulainn, and when greeting him, accidentally dropped a set of Ten Directions Sword Art into Heroic Spirit Emiya's brain.

"I am an admirer of Azathoth. When that time comes, I hope to see you turn into Nyarlathotep's appearance. You should know what I'm talking about. I hope you can take me to the Chaos Throne outside that universe and see His ultimate chaotic body."

The other party turned around, her azure eyes as clear as the ocean, the sunlight shining on her face, reflecting a flawless smile.

"Jeanne d'Arc, could you please answer my confusion?"

"Only brought a month's worth of snacks, but did go to collect various swimsuit illustrations of female Servants."

"Really? Thank you very much, Miss Nyarlathotep." Illya took off his top hat and said gentlemanly:

'Is this line a bit familiar?'

"Can I entrust it to you?"

Even the Three Pillar Gods couldn't tamper with the direction of Emiya Emiya Shirou's sentence.

"Harem... what are you talking about." Emiya Emiya Shirou had also gradually adapted to this person. He looked at Emiya Emiya Shirou, who was a bit out of it, and said with a smile:

No matter how slow Emiya Emiya Shirou was, he probably understood what the other party meant.

Emiya looked at the red petals remaining on the ground, took out a jade box and packed them up. He looked at Heroic Spirit Emiya being carried away by the blue lancer, trying his best to restrain something.

The poster in the very center was a picture of the two kissing under a Sala tree.

"Thank you, Mr. Fool." Abigail held the tea cup Illya had filled for her and blew on it carefully:

"Senior, what are you holding in your hand?" Mash asked curiously: "I've seen you holding it since just now."

Van Gogh with white eyes and a big flower growing around her.

Illya drank the milk tea in one gulp, wiped the corner of his mouth calmly, and laughed: "Very interesting."

"Rare to have a plot without players peeping, want to experience it?"

No need to hesitate, for this kind of thing.

Abigail, with an eye peeping inside the keyhole on her forehead.

That's not what it means, right? Although it's true he isn't an adult on the ID card...

"You will eventually reach the end of this journey in the light of Human Order in the snowfield."

Gilles de Rais, whose skin turned purple and white with tentacles bending and stretching behind him.

"As expected of the senior with the greatest age in the group, strength is as reliable as age." Emiya sighed, and asked Kaguya, who was playing PSP:

"Thought you didn't want to come back." Director Gordolf Musik said: "Really want to taste it... that delicious thing you mentioned..."

"Compared to that kind of music, I'd rather go to your place for a trip."

Go to the Ultimate Gate? Unless I'm crazy.

Looks like the red archer has fallen into a faint.

Emiya Emiya Shirou took the girl's hand from the other party's hand and held it tightly:

Although it was all posted there by Emiya Emiya Shirou...

Walking out of the entrance along the space-modified corridor, the atmosphere began to become a bit subtle, except for 【Magical Girl】 Emiya Emiya Shirou walking in the front with light steps, happy for the possible future she witnessed.

"The dog over there, leave it to you to carry back. To think you made this King eat civilian food for two days! Properly remember your previous skills!"

"Emiya Emiya Shirou is my most important family member."

Another pair of crimson eyes like pomegranates seemed to have regained their senses. As long as one observed carefully, one could see the girl's tension.

Fortunately, he had rich experience in dealing with it.

"Long admired. If you are willing, you can share the coordinates with me." Illya leaned his head lazily. Anyway, if the other party really had a way to find his true body after this player body, they probably wouldn't be waiting here for him.

'???'

"So that's how it is. Then next time you come, it will be the wedding, right?" Irisviel stood up with a smile:

As the melodious music spread, those alienated items seemed excited, and then instantly withered like dead flowers.

Facing the invitation from the 'Fool' Mr., whose face occasionally had transparent worms emerging, Fujimaru Ritsuka shook her head again and immediately closed the door.

Emiya's figure dissipated. When he arrived at the entrance of the island cave-heaven, the three Gilgameshes in front placed the red archer on the ground with Enkidu.

This short gathering had also reached the time to part.

Profound and exquisite projections emerged from the box, accompanied by magnificent classical music and the starry universe, a paragraph of text and a magnetic neutral voice drifted.

"Did you use your ability just now? You could have just said you didn't know. Going out of your way to use 'Moment' to help me find it, really thank you."

Fujimaru Ritsuka wanted to close the door the moment she opened it, even regretting not knocking.

Illya shook his head regretfully, not knowing where he took out a white record. **CHAPTER 355**
