After a night of careful exploration, Rin also discovered a total of six suspected distortions in the entire Fuyuki City spiritual vein, but the specific reasons are not yet clear.
Because these distortions did not affect World of the Living, and he currently did not have the ability to solve this unknown distortion, Rin decided to wait and see what happened.
Rin placed monitoring familiars in six suspected twisted locations, and would be dispatched as soon as any abnormality occurred.
Judging from the phone call Mage's Association made to him, Mage's Association was investigating and already had a clue. So if he wanted to know what was going on, he could just ask Archer to follow him secretly when Mage's Association sent someone to Fuyuki.
This is called borrowing power.
The days passed very smoothly. Between Rin's daily quarrels with Luviya, who seemed to have forgotten his main mission, and his sister's homework tutoring every night, more than a week passed by in the blink of an eye.
It is worth mentioning that for more than a week, Illya visited Matou Residence every day, but every time he was turned away by Rider for various weird reasons.
The most egregious one was when the other party gave the reason "My menstrual period is here today, so it's not appropriate to see guests for two weeks."
Do boys also have menstrual periods?
You have a hammer... well, it seems that you really do.
In the end, Illya gave up asking Shinji and instead focused on Miyu.
Relying on the status of a "friend", Illya sticks with Miyu every day, hoping to discover something.
He even invited him to his castle on his day off and introduced Sella, Liz and Berserker to him.
In the forest of the Einzbern Family, looking at Berserker who was full of kindness towards Miyu, Illya seemed to feel that something was wrong, but could not tell it.
"Illya, are you hiding it?"
Miyu, who was standing in front of a certain tree with his eyes covered and counting a hundred, asked aloud.
"Wait, wait! Give me three more... no, ten seconds!"
Yes, what Illya feels is wrong is that in the process of getting along with Miyu, he unknowingly forgets his original purpose and devotes himself wholeheartedly to playing with the other party.
"Illya, found..."
Liz, who came behind Illya at some point, pointed at Illya.
"It hasn't started yet! Liz! Also, although it's a hide-and-seek game in groups, you are my maid! Even if you see it, you should pretend not to see it!"
"Really?" Liz tilted his head, looking confused.
"That's called collusion and cheating~Illya-chan~"
Ruby floated over and added a very thoughtful sentence.
"Illya, found..."
Looking at Miyu who came at some time, Illya hugged his little head and collapsed. "Ahhhh! I told you not to start yet!"
"Didn't Illya say it will start in ten seconds?" Miyu also tilted his head, blinked and stared straight at Illya with his simple big eyes.
Liz raised his face and began to think, "In other words... there are only two people left, Sella and Beaserker..."
"Berserker... discovered!"
Looking at Berserker who was found by Miyu standing in front of a tree like a thick pillar, Illya felt even worse.
"Berserker, you're not even trying to hide and seek! You're too easy to spot! It's not fair at all!"
Boom!!
Liz, who took out an ax gun from nowhere and chopped down a certain tree, pointed at Sella, who fell down with the tree, and said, "Sella, found..."
"Miss Lieslotte, you are so amazing..." Miyu showed a bit of surprise and clapped her hands gently.
"The winner has been decided! Illya-chan!" Ruby also circled around Illya and announced the victory of this game without any sense of restraint.
Fu——
Illya took a deep breath, then raised his head and shouted frantically, "This is not the same as the hide and seek I imagined!!"
"Illya What kind of hide and seek do you want to play?"
Miyu blinked his big eyes and tilted his head and asked. Miyu's idea is actually very simple. The other party is his friend, so he must do his best to meet the other party's requirements!
"Of course it's that kind of thing..."
Before Illya could finish speaking, he was suddenly affected by Sella and Liz, who were holding axes and guns and were fighting each other because of a disagreement about the hide-and-seek just now.
Illya, who was accidentally touched by Liz, fell forward involuntarily, and then felt that his lips seemed to have touched a soft...
Looking at Miyu, who was staring blankly in front of him, Illya finally reacted and quickly took a step back to stand still!
"This..." Miyu, whose first kiss was taken away, dodges his eyes, blushes slightly, and says coyly, "This is the first time I've heard of this kind of hide-and-seek, no... but if Illya likes it, I... I will endure it..."
"It's not like that!!" Illya collapsed completely, holding his hair with both hands, looking up to the sky and shouting, extremely embarrassed and angry.
"Did something happen?" Liz, who noticed something was wrong, stopped their discussion with Sella and tilted his head to ask.
"Oh hehehe... not bad~" Ruby laughed mysteriously at this time, and the scene just now was captured by him at the right time.
There are three non-loli and legal loli, this development really makes a gentleman satisfied!
"Liz... It's all your fault!"
"Is it Liz's fault?" Liz tilted his head again.
"Yes, it's your fault! If the master said something wrong, it's a mistake! We maids have no room for excuse!" Sella took the words with a serious face.
"Why do you think I'm like a dictator?"
"Speaking of which, Miss..." Sella suddenly noticed something. He looked at Miyu, whose face was red and seemed to have passively opened a door and immersed himself in a new world. He asked, "What happened to Miss Miyu? Why didn't you say a word from the beginning?"
Illya:...
When Illya was so embarrassed that he wanted to find a crack in the stone to crawl in, Fuyuki Airport today welcomed the executor of Sealing Designation and his Servant who had been away for nearly half a month.
The first person to get the news was Shinji, and then Rin also got the news that Bazett and Lancer had arrived at Fuyuki from Archer who was patrolling the streets.
After simple reasoning, Rin also understood that Bazett was the Magecraft division sent by the Mage's Association to investigate and solve the abnormality of Fuyuki Leyline.
Because they were acquaintances, Rin immediately found the hotel where Bazett was staying and made a request for cooperation.
Although Mage's Association doesn't want others to interfere, wouldn't it be nice to help in the name of a half-acquaintance of Bazett? Mage's Association wouldn't even interfere in such a thing, right?
On the surface, it's to help, but secretly, wouldn't it be nice to get some information and figure out what's going on?
After listening to Rin's request, Bazett also held his chin and started thinking, "Letting Fuyuki's manager assist can indeed improve efficiency, but..."
Saying that, Bazett looked at Rin with raised eyebrows, and then said, "It may be dangerous..."
After hearing this, Rin felt from the bottom of her heart that Bazett was a good person, but she was actually worried that she would be in danger. He also rejects from the bottom of his heart those remarks that say those who enact and execute the seal are inhumane and cold-blooded.
Can this be called inhumane? Can this be called cold-blooded? Who said that? Stand up for me! You see if I can't resist you, you're done!
"Don't worry, I'm also a Magecraft master, not to mention Archer will protect me."
"Well, okay, I will agree to your assistance this time. It just so happens that Mage's Association also has another matter for me to investigate."
"Another thing?" Rin was puzzled.
Bazett nodded and said, "Yes, I originally detected a total of seven distortions in Fuyuki's spiritual veins. However, after I returned to the Mage's Association more than ten days ago, one of the distortions suddenly disappeared. Mage's Association guessed that someone had intervened."
"Someone intervened and solved the distortion in the spiritual vein?"
Rin frowned and began to think, Fuyuki City was the only one who knew about this kind of thing, Shinji who seemed to have known about it for a long time, and Illya who seemed to have discovered it.
Although these two people acted like they had nothing to do, it was not certain that they really did nothing.
Especially that kelp head!
Based on the other party's character, there is a high probability that he will not do anything after discovering such a thing. In fact, the other party has already thoroughly investigated the cause. At this time, he just sits on the Diaoyutai and watches the excitement.
"That bastard..."
Rin also clenched his fists and cursed through gritted teeth, but he still didn't have any thoughts of confronting Shinji.
The other party is just a smelly and hard candy. Even if I go to confront him, the other party will evade and refuse to admit it.
In the evening, Rin, who followed Bazett and Lancer to the dock in the name of assistance, finally understood what the problem was after seeing the other party using special means to bring him and Archer into Mirror World.
"I see. If it wasn't in the real world, it wouldn't be noticeable..." Rin held her forehead and sighed softly, but then she also heard the reminder from Bazett.
"Be careful! There is a strange magic power!"
Rin was very energetic, and Red A also summoned his double swords and became alert.
But the next scene made Rin start to feel a little confused. He saw an overly familiar guy who looked very similar to a certain Lancer present appeared from the darkness!
"Fight! Lancer!"
Bazett shouted, and then rushed forward together with Scylla who couldn't wait to fight!
"Fighting with yourself? I'm excited!"
Lancer's excitement was palpable as he rushed towards him at top speed, holding countless spears in his hand!
"Yeah, yeah, I didn't expect that he is just a guy with power but no sense."
Lancer, who was holding the gun, let out a long sigh and expressed his dissatisfaction with the battle.
The combat power is indeed impressive. The enemy has vaguely surpassed me in numerical value, but he has no brains. Bazett seduced him, and he took the opportunity to rush behind the opponent and fire a single shot, and the opponent was killed neatly.
Looking at the card that Bazett held in his hand and dropped after the enemy was destroyed, Rin asked, "Miss Bazett, what is that..."
"I don't know, but..." Bazett said, facing the front of the card towards Rin, "... it has the word Lancer on it."
"Wha... what?!"
Because winning the first battle was too easy, Bazett and Rin, who had no consumption, also rushed to the next spiritual vein distortion point.
This time, the Class Card that several people met in Mirror World was... Archer!
Looking at the blackened and irrational Servant who looked very similar to himself, Red A also felt that things were going further and further away from their original development.
"Archer, get ready!"
Just like a strange knight needs to be dealt with with the same knight power, Rin also issued an attack order to Red A.
All in all, this kind of irrational corrupted Servant is not that difficult to deal with, and it is much worse than the real Servant who can think.
With the cooperation of several people, Red A also solved "himself" neatly and easily.
After exiting Mirror World, Rin asked, "Ms. Bazett, can I keep Archer's cards temporarily?"
"Hmm..." Bazett had just started thinking when the cell phone in his pocket suddenly rang.
In the next three minutes, Mage's Association, who had been "peeping" through various means, also asked Bazett to return to the association immediately and bring back the two collected cards.
At this time, Rin, who knew the other party's difficulties, no longer asked the other party to give him the card, but thoughtfully took a taxi to the airport for the other party and sent the other party to the car.
Of course, the other party has to do the payment himself, he is just helping to call a taxi!
Bazett, who said goodbye to Rin and Archer, was sitting in a taxi heading to the airport and was feeling distressed secretly.
Just arrived and leaving?
I haven't even had a chance to meet that person yet!
