Chapter 292: ·Really stupid, really boring, really

~9 min read 1,772 words

【Gray: "Coming from the other Reverse Reverse Reverse Reverse Side?"】

【Zepia: "This is an undefined domain, Logos React has not actively taken action until now. However, now that it has become her, it seems to be more persistent toward you than I expected. Is this also the influence brought by the object of identification?"】

【"By the way, if you feel that the annoying playwright is playing you in the palm of his hand, then go back. You solved the puzzle, I will open the door to send you back. If you need it, I will also reveal the knowledge you like as I said before. I can buy time to prevent you from being affected by its malfunction, and the disaster range cannot spread to London where the Clock Tower is located."】

【The Second: "What about another way?"】

【Zepia: "What do you mean?"】

【The Second: "Does this mean that mentioning that part will violate the contract? I thought it would be like this. If that method is possible, you would clearly induce us to intervene in Logos React instead of designing it as a coincidence. But conversely, you didn't deny my question, which means it's not impossible to implement."】

【"Gray, in the second round, I said this is your case. So, I want to leave the choice to you."】

【Gray: "Yes."】

【The Second: "Sorry, although I boasted, I want to participate in the end of this case based on my selfish mentality. As a magus and the Lord of the El-Melloi faction, it is clearly wrong to do so, but I cannot stop myself from participating in this problem."】

【Gray: "Why do you want to participate?"】

【The Second: "I can't say. Although I can't say, are you willing to entrust your life to me?"】

【Gray: "Master is really a fool, please don't say that with a guilty look. Because I have already entrusted my life to Master."】

Shishigou Kairi: "Want to stop Atlas Academy's weapon, that's really bold."】

Iskandar: "Hahaha, kid, right, that's what a man with courage is."】

Kayneth: "Hmm, didn't live up to the name of El-Melloi."】

Waver: "Uh, feels like a crazy decision..."】

【Flat: "I say, it's too lame to retreat at this time, because the game hasn't been cleared yet! No matter how you look at it, this is a hidden boss appearing, right! It's hard to find it, how can you skip it without fighting!"】

【Svin: "I will follow Master's wishes. And, Master said this time he wants to borrow our strength. For the party asking for help, not letting us help to the end is a violation of the contract."】

【The Second said helplessly: "You remember that."】

【Kay protested: "Hey hey hey, are you guys a bunch of idiots! I think not only is your brain burned, but you also drank a lot of strong liquor for giants? The other party specifically indicated that you can leave, and you suffered a lot before, and you still intend to play with fire? It's not like some country girl who was given a chance to give up and picked up the sword of selection, I won't do such stupid things as jumping into a boring hell voluntarily."】

【Gray: "But, Sir Kay will accompany us, right?"】

【Kay: "Why do you think so?"】

【Gray: "Because, you are also Add."】

【Kay: "Should say, since you are holding Add as the main body, I can't run away at all. If you feel sorry for me, just run away, but you won't, right."】

【Gray: "Hmm."】

【After I nodded, Kay lowered his head in frustration.】

Artoria: "Country girl..."

Add one to the resentment toward Merlin.】

Merlin:???】

Lancelot: "..."】

Is this really the Kay in his memory, not some white-haired old monster disguised as him.】

Merlin: Achoo achoo...】

【The Second: "Alright, we will stop the malfunctioning Logos React for you."】

【Zepia frowned: "Are you serious?"】

【The Second: "Of course. Basically, didn't you also calculate this answer?"】

【Zepia: "I certainly calculated it. Although the possibility is not high, this candidate is in your options, because the statistical data of your actions so far hinted at such an answer. Precisely because of this, I took the risk of violating the contract to choose to contact you, but I still don't understand. Why is such an option possible?"】

【"Based on your intelligence, you should understand that it is unreasonable. You should also be very clear about the danger of Logos React. You wouldn't say something like wanting to save Wales, right? Or is it because there is another way? Even if there really is such a thing, for a vague and unreasonable option that stacks hypotheses on top of hypotheses, the Lord wants to bet his life?"】

【"Not just you, but also bet the lives of students and resident disciples. I remember according to your personality, wouldn't you even avoid students participating in your own battles?"】

【The Second: "I said before, I am not a detective. I don't think that after excluding the unreasonable, the truth will remain, because I am a magus. And, I have been tired of the results oriented by the so-called best or most suitable answers for a long time."】

【Zepia: "Hahaha! You actually said you don't want to exclude the unreasonable! Are you an idiot, are you a fool, are you a big stupid bird! I thought you would say something, but it turned out to be such a boring and meaningless plot! Even if you use magic that doesn't age, you can't survive for a short three hundred years, throwing away the best and most suitable answers, where do you intend to arrive? In the end, you actually want to use such a weak reason, relying on this little combat power to face the malfunctioning Logos React!"】

【"Is that so, this logic... is very reasonable!"】

【Kay: "What!!!"】

【Zepia: "Yes, that's right. You will get tired of it. You will get bored of it. That's why I gave up that kind of thinking and stopped worrying. However, you said you want to hold that kind of thinking and move forward, right."】

【"I see, it's really stupid, really boring, really... no, I have decided to just be an observer, it would be tactless to say anything more. Let's continue to talk about business."】

【"It's fine for you to stop Logos React, it's just that as El-Melloi II saw through, I cannot provide assistance according to the contract. Even so, I can at least arrange the stage. Although it won't bring advantages to either Reverse Reverse Reverse Reverse Side, it might be a bit easier in mood."】

【The Second: "Thank you for your assistance, I am terrified."】

【Zepia: "Come, the moment for the reproduction to fall is here!"】

【His fingers traced an arc. The sound of something shattering rang out, and the Second and his group were surrounded by an ice palace invisible to the naked eye, followed by a dizziness a hundred times stronger than the floating feeling of taking an elevator.】

【Zepia: "By the way, tell you one thing. Now that you have decided to participate, telling you won't violate the contract."】

【"Your estimate was correct, El-Melloi II, the death of Gray's mother and Priest Fernand, theoretically, has not been determined."】

【"???"】

【There was no time for astonishment at all, the inaudible 'message' echoed in the minds of several people.】

【──Code: Logos React, irregular startup.】

【──Distortion fixed value: B.】

【──Removal period: ■■■■■■■■■■■】

【──Unlogos program started. Start converting targets.】

【──Full itinerary, completed Clear. Atlas human reason continues the fifth experiment started.】

Rin Tohsaka: "He said death is not yet determined? What does it mean?"】

Kayneth: "Hmm... I see!"】

Tokiomi Tohsaka: "I also understand, Logos React cannot accept the concept of death, so those two who are constantly calculated by it are probably not really dead yet."】

Kayneth: "Indeed, I didn't expect that because of the malfunction, it caused such an unexpected situation."】

【After the magi of the Clock Tower disappeared, Zepia who remained sighed.】

【He must try his best to delay the time when the runaway caused by the malfunction occurs. Although according to the contract, he cannot Matsuwanko Matsuwanko Take action against Logos React itself, changing the surrounding factors and indirectly inducing El-Melloi II and the others is barely within the permissible range.】

【Of course, the sixth parallel thinking warned that doing so strictly speaking has the risk of violating the contract, but he prioritized the view of the second and third arguments that it was within the permissible range. The contradiction between parallel thinking led to a slight decrease in performance, which can only be accepted.】

【Just like what he had been doing for half a year, Zepia touched the crystal ball, constantly controlling countless parameters.】

【In a sense, that technique was far more delicate than the interference battle when he fought Flat. Even if it were other alchemists of Atlas Academy, if it were someone else, they would probably have their brains burned on the spot by that heavy load. But if he couldn't do this kind of thing, becoming a Dead Apostle would have no value to speak of.】

【Zepia: "I see, it's really stupid, really boring, really worth loving..."】

Kayneth: "Thanks to this one being a Dead Apostle, if it were a human, I'm afraid he wouldn't be able to control the malfunctioning Logos React at all."】

Shishigou Kairi: "It's been like this for half a year, it's really hard work."】

【Dark clouds covered the sky, stone pillars stood on the ground, and names were carved on each stone pillar, like forgotten children, casting faint shadows on the black ground.】

【Clearly, this is a graveyard.】

【Zepia said he chose the location, does he mean this?】

【This is Gray's mother's grave, the Skeleton King's grave, Logos React's grave.】

【However, compared to the environment, Gray is full of another thing now.】

【"Master, Mom's death and Priest Fernand's death are not yet determined, what is going on?"】

【The Second: "That was just a hypothesis, and it's cruel to make you happy for nothing, so I didn't say it there."】

【"Atlas Academy also gave an unexpected gift. It's what he meant, her mother's death has not been determined."】

【Gray: "Not yet determined?"】

【The Second: "Because Logos React has been continuously testing death, it is equivalent to saying that the dead on the scene have not been determined. Logos React is probably saving the villagers in a state of suspended animation. I thought Priest Fernand might be the same, I didn't expect to get Zepia's personal certification."】

【Gray: "So, Mom's death, and Priest Fernand's death are, not yet determined."】

【Kay: "I see. Magi really always think about inexplicable things. But it's quite interesting."】
