Chapter 500

【Waver and Gray's breathing couldn't help but hitch.】

【Zepia: "The seven great weapons of Atlas, their nature is reenactment, which is also very familiar to me. Although there is no official name, we call it 'Logos React' and so on."】

【Waver: "What did you say!"】

【Zepia: "I am explaining the situation, Lord El-Melloi II, these are all things you want to ask."】

Kayneth: "Are you kidding me! That kind of sealed thing, he actually dares to bring it out!"

Tohsaka Tokiomi: "Sealed thing?"

Although he knows the great name of the Atlas Academy, he doesn't know about the seven weapons; after all, the Mage's Association wouldn't spread such dangerous news everywhere.

Shishigou Kairi: "I have heard some rumors, could it be those weapons!"

Shishigou Kairi: "But, even the director of the Atlas Academy can't use those things at will, right!"

Kayneth: "Who knows, the director always has some special privileges."

【Waver: "That is..."】

【Facing the stuttering teacher, Zepia took a deep breath and opened his mouth to emit a series of 'sounds' like an endless avalanche.】

【"Rotate, rotate, rotate, rotate, rotate, rotate, rotate, rotate..."】

【"Turn the past into the present, the present into the past, reverse, rotate, rotate, rotate..."】

【Speaking to this point, Zepia raised the corners of his mouth and bowed exaggeratedly.】

【"In short, this is purely the residue of possibility. Similar to the Walachia that fell depending on the world's choice, it is one of the phenomena with decisive differences. Oh, by the way, can it also be imitated as the mystery of the Far East, called the Night of Calamity?"】

【The light of the whole world caused a halo, and at the same time mixed with darkness; everything gradually distorted into black and white like an ink painting.】

【"Zepia!!!"】

【Waver and Gray fell to their knees, without any power to resist.】

【Vision, hearing, smell, taste, touch, now none of them can capture any normal information.】

【Not just the nerves, even the magic circuits were distorted and absorbed, unable to function normally.】

【"... Indulge in the night."】

【"You had better explore the fiction that does not belong to reality. Pursue the fictional mystery you should solve; that is the only way for you to reach the exit, Lord El-Melloi II."】

【Accompanied by Zepia's voice, the screen disappeared completely.】

Waver: "Is it an illusion? Or spatial magic? Or perhaps a barrier?"

Shishigou Kairi: "What on earth is this? Lord El-Melloi, do you know?"

Kayneth: "How could I possibly know, the seven great weapons are the highest secret of the Atlas Academy; even if I am a Lord, I have no right to know."

【"Code: Logos React, re-input."】

【"Distortion fixed value: B."】

【"Removal phase: ■■■■■■■■■■■"】

【"■■■■■ program start. Start transforming the object."】

【"Full process, complete Clear. Atlas's—"】

【A mechanical voice sounded in Gray's mind; that was 'Information Code' that she couldn't understand, more direct than sound.】

【When she came back to her senses, she was already lying on a soft bed.】

【"Where is this..."】

【Supporting her slightly aching head, Gray walked downstairs subconsciously.】

【Something is wrong, what's with this warm temperature? Wasn't it snowing before? Why is it that now, as long as I do a little exercise, I break into a sweat.】

【This weather, it feels like early summer? How is this possible!】

【"Good morning, Gray. Didn't you sleep well?"】

【A familiar yet already somewhat strange voice suddenly came from the kitchen.】

【Gray: "Why... where is this?"】

【"Gray, what's wrong with you?"】

【A woman walked out of the kitchen carrying bread, looking at Gray and asking.】

【"Mo, Mother..."】

【Looking at that figure, Gray was stunned in place.】

Rin Tohsaka: "Hey, hey? What's going on? Are the people in the village all back?"

Tohsaka Tokiomi: "It's not that simple, didn't you notice the weather has changed?"

Shishigou Kairi: "And how did this girl suddenly go home, and her mother acts as if nothing happened. Logically, shouldn't Gray be a dead person in the village?"

Waver: "What shouldn't be focused on is, what exactly is that mechanical voice?"

Emiya Kiritsugu: "Fiction that does not belong to reality... in other words, is this an illusion?"

【"How was yesterday?"】

【Gray's mother put the bread on the table and continued: "You guided the new guest, right? He seems to be called El-Melloi II."】

【"Ah... yes."】

【Gray answered subconsciously, and past memories flooded her mind.】

【But what happened? What's with this conversation that seems to have returned to the past?】

【She remembers, this should have happened on the morning of the day after she first met Waver.】

【Thinking of the season at that time, the current high temperature can also be understood.】

【Gray suddenly looked at the mirror on the side; the illusion on her face had been dispelled.】

【What on earth is going on? Could it be that she returned to the past!】

Shishigou Kairi: "Returning to the past, that can explain the weather and the problem with the girl's mother."

Kayneth: "Impossible! Time ability is already at the level of magic; it's simply not that easy to touch!"

Feng Xi: "..."

Too small, Director Kayneth's vision is still too small.

In less than twenty years, Chaldea's spiritron transfer technology that can traverse time and space will be invented.

Not to mention anything else, even Heartless came by traversing time and space.

【Her mind was a mess, and Gray sat down somewhat mechanically, enjoying breakfast with her mother.】

【"Last night, I had a strange dream."】

【Mother suddenly said: "I dreamed that the guest took you away. Very strange, right? That kind of thing clearly couldn't happen."】

【Gray: "... Yeah."】

【Was there this conversation at that time? The memory is a bit unclear.】

Tohsaka Tokiomi: "Look, sure enough there's a problem."

Shishigou Kairi: "Indeed, if it's time travel, how could such a deviation occur."

Emiya Kiritsugu: "It feels like it's deliberately reminding this girl."

【Eating breakfast with a restless heart, mother cleaned up the tableware and prepared to go out.】

【"I'm going to pray to the Holy Mother and see Grandma. Say hello to Mr. Bersac for me."】

【Mother turned back before closing the door and said: "By the way, although being a gravedigger is an important job, you can't be more invested in it. Because you are a very precious child of God."】

【Still that familiar teaching, immediately giving Gray a feeling of being strangled by the throat.】

【After her mother left, Gray fled back to her room, picked up the cage and whispered: "Add?"】

【Unfortunately, that sharp-tongued box didn't have any reaction.】

【Gray took it out and found that its eyes were tightly closed; thinking of the conversation on the road before, she seemed to understand something.】

【Why, why won't you wake up at a time like this?】

Rin Tohsaka: "This is, powered off?"

Irisviel: "Saber, can you see what's going on?"

Artoria: "Sorry, Iris, I have very little understanding of the Holy Spear."

Waver: "However, now it can be confirmed that the anomaly of the Holy Spear must have something to do with this village."

【Collecting her mood, Gray decided to go out to see the situation.】

【The residents are all back. If this is the past before I left my hometown, that's a matter of course.】

【Is this a daydream, or is her experience after leaving her hometown the dream?】

【Gray wiped her sweat while her thoughts couldn't stop running wild.】

【"... No, I have stayed there."】
