Chapter 266

【The mercury maid on the side quickly hands over a potion to stop this situation.】

【Waver: "The spiritual vein is even more unstable than I imagined."】

【Welles: "Is it the Mystic Eyes?"】

【Waver: "Hmm, Reines's Mystic Eyes turn red and hurt as soon as they come into contact with magical energy."】

【Reines: "It's like putting your hand into a heater when you were a child. As long as you put in eye drops, it's fine."】

【Gray: "Let's hurry on our way, Master. The wind is moving quite a bit."】

【Afterwards, just as Gray felt, the group had only walked halfway when a rainstorm descended.】

【When everyone arrived at the workshop, they were soaked, and Waver was even carried in by Gray.】

【"I didn't expect the journey to be so long."】

【Waver pants heavily.】

【It's a waste of such a tall stature; his body is too weak.】

Kayneth: "Waver, I really can't compliment your physical strength."

Rin Tohsaka: "I feel like it's not even as good as you are now."

Extra Feng Xi: "Sitting in an office for a long time, you're almost ruined, right?"

Waver: "It hasn't reached that point yet!"

Iskandar: "Kid, how can you gallop on the battlefield with this kind of physical strength? Remember, starting from today, you must exercise every day."

Kayneth: "I will supervise him."

Waver: "(???)"】

【Suddenly, a white snake appears from the ground, turning into bandages and wrapping Welles into a rice dumpling.】

【"I didn't expect you to arrive early, Miss Hishiri."】

【Waver looks at this move and immediately guesses who the person who made the move is.】

【"Long time no see, Lord El-Melloi II."】

【On the stairs above, a woman with fair skin, wearing a kimono and glasses, appears. Her long black hair reaches her ankles, as if it were combed night.】

【This woman is named Hishiri Adashino, and she is the magus sent by the Department of Law.】

【The reason she made a move to capture Welles is because she, who arrived here early to conduct an investigation, judged that Welles killed his father, Trevor, so she wants to arrest him.】

【Accompanying her is also a brown-haired, wheat-colored woman named "Valetta Codrington", who is the supervisor sent by the main family.】

【According to their statement, they, who arrived early, wanted to use necromancy to summon Trevor to ask for some clues, but found that the traces Trevor left here had been erased.】

【Not just Trevor, all the victims of the incident that year were the same.】

【The traces of the dead being erased is the same principle as fingerprints being erased in the public world.】

【And the only ones who can do this are necromancers.】

【Through investigation, every time an accident occurred, Welles was here at the workshop, so they accused Welles of being the murderer.】

【Hishiri Adashino wanted to arrest Welles directly, but Waver used the rainstorm and lightning as an excuse to stop her temporarily.】

【This Hishiri Adashino is also interesting. Just now, she was clearly very overbearing, but after hearing Waver's proposal, she agreed directly and readily, and without Waver even having to ask, she untied Welles herself and did not restrict Welles's freedom.】

【From their conversation, it can be seen that this is not the first time Waver and Hishiri Adashino have worked on a case together.】

Rin Tohsaka: "Is the Department of Law of the Clock Tower so overbearing? Just based on a little guess, they want to arrest someone."

Kayneth: "Little girl, the world of magi is not like the outside. The methods of those magi criminals are almost endless, so it's better to kill the wrong person than to let one go. Anyone with suspicion is arrested first."

Emiya Kiritsugu: "That's right. I have deep experience with this."

Those magi criminals, even if they are dead, you can't be careless.

Back then, his teacher "Natalia Kaminski" was implicated by "Odd Borzak" in this way and died at his hands.

Emiya Kiritsugu: "The world of magi is very cruel."

【Seeing Hishiri Adashino loosen her stance, Waver also breathes a sigh of relief and takes Welles to conduct an investigation.】

【The two come to the study, and Waver asks about the relationship between Welles and Valetta.】

【He had just seen that their relationship was not normal.】

【Welles has no choice but to confess that he and Valetta were childhood sweethearts, but because he rejected her marriage proposal, the relationship between the two is now very bad.】

【"You can explain the other reason you called me here."】

【Determining that no one is eavesdropping, Waver also gets to the point.】

【"I can, it just happened to come."】

【Welles suddenly lights up his Mystic Eyes and takes out an unknown powder and sprinkles it on Waver.】

【Then, Waver sees the figure of a fairy appear in the study.】

Kayneth: "Oh, a fairy? I didn't expect that even such creatures exist there."

Kayneth: "Trevor, that guy, really had dog-shit luck to find such a treasure land."

Rin Tohsaka: "I didn't expect that things like fairies actually exist."

Tokiomi Tohsaka: "It's my first time seeing one too."

Sakura Matou: "I feel like she looks very sad."

【Welles explains: "She seems to be a fairy rooted in this land."】

【"Be careful..."】

【After this fairy leaves this small sentence, she disappears directly.】

【Welles says that ever since the workshop was completed, this fairy would appear every stormy night.】

【Because Welles was born with Fairy Eyes, he was able to see the other party.】

【Every time the fairy appeared and warned, there would be victims struck by lightning.】

【But this fairy never explained what she was warning about, always just saying 'be careful'.】

【This is also the second thing Welles asked Waver to investigate.】

Kayneth: "A warning from a fairy? This means the workshop incident is very likely man-made."

Astolfo: "Ah, it feels more and more interesting."

Extra Feng Xi: "Speaking only half of what you mean, it's really annoying."

Astolfo: "Is that so? I think so too."

【On the other side, Reines and Gray discover a secret passage while investigating in the living room.】

【Because of curiosity, Reines pulls Gray down directly.】

【"This is a tomb. I am a gravekeeper, so I know."】

【Below the secret passage is an underground cave, and Gray quickly determines the origin of this place.】

【At the same time, her past identity is revealed.】

【Reines: "After all, it's a ruin bought by a necromancer."】

Artoria: "A gravekeeper? I didn't expect this child to be doing such work at such a young age."

For some reason, she always feels that this child is not just as simple as looking like her.

Especially the magic cube in the cage in Gray's hand; no matter how she looks at it, she feels it's familiar, but she just can't remember where she saw it.】

【After moving forward for a distance, Reines's Mystic Eyes suddenly act up again.】

【"The effect of the medicine disappeared too quickly. No, is the power of the Mystic Eyes being drawn out by this ruin?"】

【There is no other way; the two have to return the way they came.】

【But unexpectedly, halfway through, Reines stumbles and steps on a mechanism, and a large amount of falling rocks immediately fall from above.】

【The mercury maid immediately turns into a barrier to protect Reines, but Gray is not so lucky.】

【"Boom!!!"】

【Just as she is about to be hit, a gunshot comes, and the falling rocks are instantly shattered.】

【"Are you ladies okay?"】

【A big man holding a shotgun walks slowly from another passage.】

【A fierce face, a sturdy body, and sunglasses that never leave his face; it is actually Kairi Sisigou.】

Kairi Sisigou: "Hmm? Is that me!"

Waver: "So our world also has you."

Kayneth: "What's the big deal? Wasn't that Caules student of yours before?"

Kairi Sisigou: "Looking at another version of myself, it feels really subtle."

Mordred: "This is the first time I've seen you smile. I didn't expect it to be another version of you." ===== CHAPTER 268 =====
