Chapter 491: ·Unknown Conversation

Rin Tohsaka: "Uh, what is he saying? Why can't I understand?"

Feng Xi: "Simply put, he has mastered an algorithm that can predict the future through calculation, but it is not absolute, because this algorithm also has limits. After all, the future has many different directions, and it is impossible for him to calculate every one accurately."

Feng Xi: "This is like the story of putting rice on a chessboard; it's not that it can't be calculated, but there is simply no energy for it."

Rin Tohsaka: "Predicting the future through calculation! Can that really be done?"

Kairi Shishigou: "If it's those monsters from the Atlas Institute, it is indeed possible."

Feng Xi: "Actually, it's a kind of prophecy, but their method is more scientific."

Waver: "Although magic shouldn't be called science, I feel you are right."

【"..."】

【After a long silence, Waver nodded slightly: "I think this statement is indeed very meaningful. No, it's that I will probably realize this statement is very meaningful later."】

【Zepia: "As expected of Lord El-Melloi II. Even among the mages of the Clock Tower, you are one of the people who grasp this matter the fastest in most cases."】

【Waver: "I am honored by your praise, but I probably just lack self-confidence. I accept other people's words easily because I understand my own lack of ability."】

【Zepia: "This is precisely an important factor that promotes the world to become better. Your influence far exceeds your imagination; the shadow you cast on the world will gradually exceed the flight distance of your life. Precisely because of this, the fact that your teacher died in vain can also be said to have had meaning."】

【"Don't mention Professor Kayneth."】

【Waver subconsciously raised his voice, then immediately apologized: "... I am rude."】

【Zepia: "No, it is I who overstepped. Let me give you a warning as an apology."】

【"Next, you will be forced to face several decisions. Although I cannot judge which choice is better, you had better let the actors on the stage prepare a certain resolve. Because the script you choose on this journey will determine the way you involve yourself in the Holy Grail War."】

【Waver: "Holy Grail War, huh..."】

Kairi Shishigou: "I am most unaccustomed to dealing with such people; it feels like being a plaything in the other party's palm."

Rin Tohsaka: "It's a pity that he chose to give up in the end."

Tokiomi Tohsaka: "No, this is also a kind of resolve, isn't it?"

【"Why are you in this kind of place?"】

【Just then, a figure walked in; it was Bersac.】

【Zepia: "Hi, Bersac, you are always very punctual."】

【The scene changed, coming to the shade of trees adjacent to the windmill hut.】

【After talking with Zepia for a few minutes, Bersac immediately brought Waver and the other two out.】

【"I didn't expect you to go see him."】

【Bersac's tone was a bit bitter. After looking around, he said: "Where is Gray?"】

【Waver: "Her mother came to pick her up."】

【"Is that so..."】

【Bersac's face changed, and he stared at the two very vigilantly, asking: "First, I want to make a confirmation."】

【"Last night, did you ever walk out of that hut?"】

【Waver frowned upon hearing this and asked back: "No, you forbade us from doing so, right? What is the meaning of asking this?"】

【"..."】

【Bersac was silent for a long time, then slowly said: "Last night, an accident occurred; someone violated a taboo in the village. Once someone violates it, I will know."】

【"What kind of mechanism is that?"】

【Waver complained in his heart, but said on his lips: "Since that's the case, just catch the culprit quickly, right? Or do you want to say that we did it?"】

【Bersac: "Unfortunately, this mechanism is not convenient enough to know the details; it can only know which taboos have been violated. I hope you take this as the authority of a gravedigger."】

Kairi Shishigou: "This mechanism is magical; could it be that the whole village has been set with some kind of perception barrier?"

Kayneth: "It feels like a chicken rib; it can sense that someone violated a taboo, but doesn't know who that person is. What is the point of this?"

Waver: "At least it can play a preventive role."

【Waver: "Do the residents of this village really not go out late at night?"】

【Bersac: "Almost never, but not one. For example, children running out, etc., occasionally someone will violate a rule... However, this time two rules were violated."】

【Waver: "I see, it is also possible that an outsider invaded the village late at night."】

【Bersac didn't continue this topic, but stared seriously at Waver.】

【"I will confirm one more time. Lord El-Melloi II, you said you wanted to borrow a gravedigger, right?"】 ===== CHAPTER 493 =====
