Chapter 275

~8 min read 1,505 words

Waver: "Good guy, another big melon!"

Shishigou Kairi: "I didn't expect that Ilumia to have such a background; no wonder that fat priest is so respectful to her."

Gray: "Cardinal! In surface society, it's almost the top level, right!"

Berserker: "Hmm, unfortunately, such a background cannot be made public, so she grew up in an orphanage in the records, but she also possesses extraordinary qualifications as an executor."

"She originally shouldn't have been sent to such a rural place; this means that Sister Ilumia herself is very interested in this village and volunteered to come to the village to Matsuwanko Matsuwanko Take office."

"Of course, this is just a guess."

"..."

The covered cards were flipped one after another, and the speed was so fast that Gray's brain couldn't keep up.

What exactly is happening?

What exactly happened?

Before entering the second round, did the event have the same development in the first round?

Now only these three questions remained in Gray's mind.

Berserker: "By the way, for your information, the Church's communicator also mixed into this caravan, but he seems to have been caught by the villagers."

Although he didn't say much, the fate of that communicator was already very obvious.

Gray: "How can this be..."

How many conspiracies are circling in that village? How many things did this village hide from me?

The place where I spent the longest time in my life has now become the most distant place.

Shishigou Kairi: "Oh my, this little girl is about to be driven crazy."

Waver: "Yeah, it should have been the most familiar place and people, but now they have all become the most unfamiliar; who wouldn't collapse if it were them."

"So, huh..."

Waver said in a deep voice: "Sir Kay, that's what it's about, right?"

Kay: "Sigh, clichés."

Waver looked at Berserker and said seriously: "Berserker Blackmoore, who is the person behind you? No, what is it?"

Shishigou Kairi: "Oh, it seems there are melons to eat again."

Rin Tohsaka: "Does this old man also have someone behind him?"

Kayneth: "Thinking about it, indeed, although he said he belongs to the village, he is completely unlike the villagers in the village."

Waver: "However, he neither belongs to the Clock Tower nor is he a member of the Holy Church, so which Reverse Reverse Reverse Reverse Side's force would it be?"

The screen zoomed out, returning to the windmill hut.

"Wait a minute, wait a minute, what's going on!"

At this time, the crystal balls were becoming more and more numerous, already surrounding Flat and Svin.

Flat stared at the situation inside the crystal ball and asked: "How did things turn out like this! Mr. Berserker is little Gray's companion, right! No, no, no, what is King Arthur's mind!"

"Ah! Really, I think there is a problem with the screen of this crystal ball! Will it recover if I hit it with a reinforced hand knife at a thirty-degree angle!"

Svin looked at Zepia with a serious expression and asked: "What is going on?"

Compared to the unreliable Flat, Svin was very angry now, with lightning flickering around his body.

"Hmm, your ability to come here is eye-opening. I think I should try my best to reward the actors' efforts, so I increased the number of crystals; do the two of you not like it?"

Zepia smiled: "I mentioned just now that you cannot interfere with the reproduction. Although it's a pity, you don't have that qualification; after all, you were not in the village at that time."

"Your acting was wonderful when you participated in the audition, but since you don't meet the conditions, the compromise I can find is at most to invite you to watch backstage."

"..."

Watching Waver and the others in the crystal ball fall into difficulties, Svin wanted to help them, but had no way to start.

"First of all, what is this place?"

Svin, who had calmed down, quietly observed the surroundings.

He could feel that the distance of a few meters around was now equivalent to infinity.

Damn it, one embarrassing crushing defeat was enough; he must try to understand this strange device.

"However, you should have been in the village at that time."

Svin continued to ask: "In that case, can't you go to that world like the teacher and Miss Gray?"

Zepia: "Hmm, the point you pointed out is very reasonable, but one must be cautious about paradoxes. Plus, if I, who continuously calculate the world, enter the interior, the manager will have to include the world I calculate in the recalculation, and I will almost automatically execute calculations on the results of the recalculation; this is a major contradiction."

"Although some people prefer scripts with large amounts of information, no one's tolerance can accommodate such a nested structure."

"Ah, I am looking forward to the hard work of Lord El-Melloi II and that Gravekeeper girl."

Svin didn't even understand half of what he meant.

But in short, this means that Zepia himself, who should be closely related to this situation, also cannot freely manipulate what happens in that world, right?

Rin Tohsaka: "I don't understand either."

Waver: "The meaning should be that there was no place for him in the second round originally; once he also joined in, the established script would deviate, and even he would need to make predictions about the development again."

Emiya Kiritsugu: "To put it bluntly, it's not wanting the future to be out of his control."

Waver: "I feel like my future actions are all formulated by him; it's really annoying."

Svin: "Can you bring the teacher and Miss Gray back here?"

Zepia: "Unfortunately, I can't; that violates the contract."

Svin: "Contract?"

"The contract signed between the Atlas Academy and the predecessor of this village a long time ago."

Zepia shrugged and said: "Although it was not signed by me personally, the effect is absolute. Including the appearance of unconventional existences like you, these are all things I must accept."

Kayneth: "So the contract with the Atlas Academy was signed by this village."

Tokiomi Tohsaka: "In other words, he is now assisting the village in completing the resurrection of King Arthur."

Tokiomi Tohsaka: "Because the masked girl, the replica of King Arthur's mind, is dead, he chose to complete the task in the way of the second round."

Waver: "It seems that Waver and the future me returning to the village were also in his calculations."

Tokiomi Tohsaka: "Wait a minute! This means that the village where Waver and the others are is the real past, not some illusion!"

Kayneth: "Impossible! Except for magic, it's impossible to do such a thing!"

The Magician who mastered the Fifth Magic has no intersection with the Atlas Academy.

"..."

Svin secretly thought: "He calls me, Flat, and that Sir Kay unconventional existences."

He carefully checked, avoiding over-interpreting himself.

"In short, our presence here, and what will happen to the teacher and Gray, is not entirely within this person's calculations."

"If for Zepia, the current situation also belongs to the unconventional?"

While thinking, his hand twisted gently behind his back, and magical energy turned into a wavelength of characters that only Flat could recognize and transmitted it over.

This was a method they would use when working as partners.

'Analyze this magecraft, don't attract his attention', this was Svin's message.

If it were Flat, he would mostly have the ability to handle the alchemy of the Atlas Academy. They were able to cross the barrier of that forest and arrive here, which also proved this point.

As long as there was enough time, he would design a means sufficient to Matsuwanko Matsuwanko Take revenge on Zepia.

The problem is timing. At what timing can this alchemist of the Atlas Academy be caught off guard?

'OK', Flat also replied quickly.

Flat's messaging method is to rub his fingers at certain intervals, because Svin can clearly feel the smell of the oil on his fingers after rubbing.

They used magical energy and smell as messaging and receiving methods respectively; even their teacher had never discovered this messaging method.

This unique method didn't even show signs of being discovered by Zepia in front of them.

Kayneth: "These two boys are really not simple."

Shishigou Kairi: "Actually using the opponent's characteristics to create a secret code exclusive to the other party. Hehe, the future is promising."

Of course, this was just their wishful thinking.

Zepia had already seen through their attempt; leaving them alone like this was not out of arrogance or laziness, but a solution he reached based on a pure evaluation that Flat and Svin could not cause obstacles.

In Zepia's brain, they must have been defeated tens of thousands of times.

What is needed now is not their own efforts, but more different factors.

Waver: "As expected, he had foreseen this situation long ago."

Shishigou Kairi: "After all, he is the head of the Atlas Academy; even if he doesn't know the future, I'm afraid they are not the opponent's match."
