Chapter 391: The Abyss Reincarnator Still Suffered Mostly Because of Lack of Culture

~5 min read 828 words

Upon hearing this, Su Han paused, then gave Wei Bo a peculiar glance and nodded. "So that's how it is."

"It's always been like this!"

Wei Bo took several deep breaths, forcibly calming his agitated emotions, then sat back down in his seat.

As for Alexander, he let out a hearty laugh and patted Wei Bo on the shoulder, offering comfort.

"Don't overthink it! A real man should face reality bravely."

"Other people's misunderstandings are never a valid reason to stop a man from moving forward!"

"...... Though what you said makes sense! But other misunderstandings are fine—I just can't bear for anyone to think I'm a fag."

Wei Bo covered his face.

"...... I'm sorry! Uncle Wei Bo, I misunderstood you before."

Realizing she had been mistaken, Illya immediately.

Apologized to Wei Bo.

Though Illya's apology brought Wei Bo comfort, he still dwelled on her use of the title "uncle."

Especially when compared to Su Han's "big brother" title, he felt his soul had been wounded a second time.

Wei Bo took a deep breath and lowered his head to continue eating breakfast.

As Su Han ate, his brow furrowed.

The Einzbern breakfast consisted of refined pastries, but they paled in comparison to Ram's.

The more he ate, the more he remembered how his own maid had cared for him in every detail.

He suddenly missed home.

"I should end the Holy Grail War sooner!"

After finishing his last bite, Su Han stood up, stretched slightly, and turned to Illya.

"So, where are Kiritsugu Emiya, Irisviel, and that King Arthur now?"

After hesitating, Illya whispered, "Iris-mama and the others went ahead to Ryuudouji Temple."

"They said they wanted to check the situation there."

"Are they avoiding me?"

At once, Su Han understood and laughed.

If he truly intended to act against Kiritsugu and the others, would hiding make any difference? Still, he said nothing further.

After all, speaking ill of Kiritsugu and the others in front of Illya would be impolite.

Su Han asked, "I'm done eating. What about you?"

"Almost done!"

After hesitating, Illya also set down her pastry.

She unconsciously recalled the past picnic snacks she'd eaten with Su Han in the forest...

Though those... snacks felt strange to eat, they were truly delicious.

Su Han turned his gaze to Wei Bo and Alexander, both of whom nodded.

"Then let's go!"

As he spoke, Su Han used Shinra Tensei to absorb them all, then vanished instantly with the Flying Lei Shen Technique.

Su Han's Kenbunshoku Haki spread fully toward Ryuudouji Temple, yet could not reach it.

After all, the Einzbern Castle was far too distant from Ryuudouji Temple.

But that didn't mean Su Han had no way to reach Ryuudouji Temple.

Using the Flying Lei Shen Technique, he first teleported into the heart of Fuyuki, then used the technique again to leap directly into Ryuudouji Temple.

At this moment.

Kiritsugu Emiya was observing the specifics of Ryuudouji Temple.

He frowned, occasionally tapping the ground, comparing it with his knowledge.

Yet his magical skill was clearly insufficient to discern the structure of the Greater Holy Grail Ritual.

"So why rush ahead so fast? You might as well have walked with us!"

Su Han's voice suddenly appeared beside Kiritsugu Emiya.

Kiritsugu's body stiffened, then relaxed.

"In the end... I still feel a little regret."

"So if you truly wish to save humanity, just give up on that ideal—or before achieving it, first take care of your own family."

As he spoke, Su Han released Heracles, Alexander, Illya, and Wei Bo.

"If you can't even protect your own kin, you're unworthy of being human."

"How could such a person ever save the world?"

Kiritsugu turned his head, casting a complex glance at Illya, and fell silent for a long time.

"Perhaps you're right... But if you're right, then I've already been unworthy of being human long ago..."

Kiritsugu Emiya, for the sake of his ideal of salvation,

had once killed his own father and the adoptive mother who adored him.

He felt he could no longer turn back on this path.

"It's not too late to awaken now."

Su Han understood Kiritsugu's meaning, his eyes darkening.

"Otherwise, when you truly lose everything, it'll be too late to regret."

Illya used Dream Summoning and transformed into her form.

At this very moment, the world before her appeared slightly different in her eyes.

"If this were the true Medea, revealing the Grand Chalice ritual would take only a short time... but for me, it would take at least a day of preparation."

After hesitating, Illya looked toward Su Han's direction, feeling uneasy.

Illya is far too far behind Medea.

Even with Medea's power aiding her, it is still the same.

After all, Medea is a Divine Age magus.

Her magical mastery stands above modern magical standards.

She can be called second only to a Mage.

This alone speaks volumes.

And Illya, at heart, is merely a primary school student.

"It doesn't matter,"
