Corrective Force

Lying in bed, unable to sleep, Eiri suddenly spoke to the void:

"SABER, what kind of person do you think Ling Yuan really is?"

"It's mysterious, and it's dangerous."

A blue light appeared, and Saber entered the room.

"Really? But when we went shopping together, I really thought he was a very gentle person. His expressions and tone of voice didn't seem like he was faking it at all."

Eiri lay on her pillow, reminiscing.

Saber remained silent.

Even she enjoyed that time back then.

"SABER, shall we find some time to ask him?" Eiri suddenly said.

"Eiri, Ling Yuan is an extremely uncertain factor right now," Saber cautioned.

However, Eiri shut down all of Saber's questions with a single sentence.

"SABER, you must have some questions you want to ask too," Eiri chuckled.

After finalizing

The next day

Eiri Emiya Kiritsugu brought Saber to Tohsaka Tokiomi's knowledge.

Just then, Black Pupil, who was doing his morning exercise, saw them and couldn't help but ask in surprise, "Who are you?"

"Hello, Miss Black Pupil, do you remember me?" Eiri extended her hand and greeted her with a smile.

"Yes, Miss Eiri and Saber, right? What brings you here?" Black Pupil nodded.

"It's like this, I'd like to have a talk with Ling Yuan," Eiri stated her purpose.

"Sister Eiri!"

Just then, a voice came from afar.

"Ah! It's Xiao Li!"

Eiri looked at the small golden figure running towards her and exclaimed in delight.

He crouched down and embraced Xiao Li tightly.

Chapter 205 Correctional Force

"Sister Eiri."

Xiao Li snuggled against Eiri.

"Hmm, Xiao Li, have you missed your sister?" Eiri pressed her cheek against Xiao Li's cheek.

Stick it on~

"Yes~" Xiao Li replied cooperatively.

She felt very comfortable around Eiri; it was a different aura from Ling Yuan's, but both made her feel at ease.

Perhaps it's the milky aroma.

After sticking to each other for a while, Eiri remembered her goal for this trip.

"Xiao Li, where's your brother?"

"Brother? Brother is sleeping," Xiao Li said.

"Sleep?" Eiri asked, puzzled.

I glanced at the sun in the sky; it must be almost ten o'clock. Are you still sleeping?

"Hmm, I don't know what's wrong, but my brother is especially sleepy today. I've already gotten up and he's still not awake, even though he usually gets up before me." Xiao Li tilted her head, looking very puzzled.

"Uncle Hongyan told me not to ask, and Uncle Welt even told me to go play with Sister Sakuya."

"Ah, this..." Eiri paused for a moment.

In her memory, Emiya Kiritsugu was always a very punctual man; the only time he was ever lethargic was because...

Thinking about it, Eiri blushed. Ten months later, she gave birth to Illya.

Could it be referring to Ling Yuan?

"Probably not, how could someone do something so self-destructive during the Holy Grail War?" Eiri muttered to herself.

Shaking her head to shake off those wicked thoughts, Eiri looked at Saber and said helplessly, "That's it, Saber, we'll probably have to stay a little longer."

"Mm." Saber nodded.

"Sister Lia." Xiao Li also noticed Saber and called out sweetly.

"Xiao Li ..." Saber hesitated for a moment, then squatted down and asked, "Aren't you afraid of me?"

"Afraid? Why should I be afraid?" Xiao Li asked blankly.

"Of course it's because we are enemies..." Saber hesitated for a moment, looking into Xiao Li's clear eyes.

"An enemy? But I didn't sense any hostility from my sister," Xiao Li chuckled.

Saber was taken aback.

So, not only Xiao Li, but she didn't sense any hostility from anyone else.

That's very strange.

Shouldn't they be enemies?

But why is it that no one here shows her any hostility?

Inside the room

Ling Yuan lay on the bed, holding Bella in one arm and scrolling through short videos on his phone with the other.

The system is quite powerful; it directly enabled his access to his previous life's network.

So much so that he could watch short videos even in another world.

"Master, it seems we have guests."

Bella, who was being held in Ling Yuan's arms, suddenly spoke.

"Yes, it should be Saber and the others."

Ling Yuan nodded.

"Alright, it's getting late, let's get up."

He then turned off his phone and placed it on the table.

"Master, what do you think Saber and the others want from you?" Bella flew into the air like Paimon.

Ling Yuan gently rubbed Bella's head. "I'm also quite curious why they suddenly came to find me."

After washing up and getting dressed, he placed Bella, who had transformed into Belleronus, on his shoulder and put his hands in his pockets.

Ling Yuan came down from the second floor.

You can see from the window

Outside

Eiri is playing with Xiao Li, Sakuya and the others.

It was as if she wanted to unleash all the maternal love she had felt for not seeing Illya for the past few days onto them.

The smile on her face was probably the Eiri had been smiling the most these past few days.

Ling Yuan chuckled, opened the door, and walked out.

"Ling Yuan ..."

Just as Ling Yuan opened the door, Saber noticed him.

Eiri also stopped playing and stood up when she saw Ling Yuan walking towards her.

"Miss Eiri, Lia-chan, what brings you here to play with me today?" Ling Yuan extended his hand and greeted the two of them.

"It's nothing, I just miss Xiao Li." Eiri smiled faintly.

"You can come often in the future," Ling Yuan said with a smile.

"Um, Ling Yuan, there's something I want to ask you."

At this moment, Saber took a step forward and said.

"Okay, go ahead and ask, I'm listening." Ling Yuan nodded.

Saber's expression turned serious. "Destroy the Holy Grail... are you serious?"

"Are you serious? Lia-chan, is there some wish of yours that absolutely needs the Holy Grail to fulfill?"

Seeing the determination in Saber's eyes, Ling Yuan asked, "Puzzled."

"I..."

"I want to return to the day of the King's Selection through the Holy Grail!" Saber's pupils narrowed, and she said in a deep voice.

"..."

After a brief silence, he spoke.

Are you serious?

"Yes! I simply cannot bear to see Britain's fate ruined in my hands!"

"You mean, as long as it's not destroyed in your hands, it's fine?" Ling Yuan raised an eyebrow.

That's not what I meant!

"Can you understand? The pain of a nation's destruction! What's wrong with me mourning for the country I've dedicated myself to?" Saber said loudly, as if her sore spot had been touched.

"Have you ever considered that because of your thoughts, the peaceful world we live in now might be changed?" Ling Yuan asked.

"What?"

"Throughout history, even a butterfly can cause the destruction of the world. And have you ever heard of Correctional Force?"

"Correctional Force?" Saber paused.

"It's a very peculiar power. No matter what changes you make, it will eventually develop in one direction. This is also a defense mechanism the world has in place to prevent anyone from altering the past," Ling Yuan said.

"Even the Holy Grail won't work?" Saber asked, still somewhat unwilling to give up.

"The Holy Grail..." Ling Yuan hesitated for a moment.

"If you insist, why don't you ask Kevin?" Ling Yuan said to Saber.

As fellow King Arthur, we should have common topics to discuss.

Perhaps...

"We talked about it yesterday, but he didn't tell us directly." Saber shook her head.

"Don't worry, he'll talk to me this time," Ling Yuan chuckled.

With questions in mind, Saber slowly walked towards Kevin.

"Ling Yuan, do you know something?"

Eiri watched Saber's retreating figure, clenched her arms, and forced a smile.

"As a minor Grail, it needs to shut down some of the body's functions in order to contain the soul of SERVANT."

"Miss Eiri, your body will be completely paralyzed when the four SERVANTs die."

"You really know a lot about Ling Yuan," Eiri said with a wry smile.

"Don't worry, do you remember what I told you before?"

"?"

Eiri paused, looking at him with a somewhat blank expression.

"If possible, I want Miss Eiri to live on forever."

Eiri stared blankly at Ling Yuan.
