Some Answers Can Only Be Found for Yourself

She didn't want to disappoint her parents; she thought that this would bring her the happiness she desired.

Upon seeing this scene, Kagarioka Tsubaki's first reaction was helplessness, followed by guilt, and then sadness.

She didn't want anyone to get hurt because of her, even if it was someone she didn't know.

This is the most innocent and straightforward reaction from a little girl.

Let's put everything back to normal.

"Let me be alone forever."

As Kagarioka Tsubaki uttered these two sentences, two strokes of the Command Spells on the back of Kagarioka Tsubaki's hand silently disappeared in the ward of the Central Hospital.

Her intense inner desire led her to unconsciously use Command Spells, issuing commands to the plague.

Everyone who originally came to the dream world was expelled, including Kagarioka Tsubaki's parents, who were the first to be brought there.

Whether everything collapses or the terrain changes, everything returns to the moment before the plague.

Once again, Kagarioka Tsubaki finds herself alone in a silent world.

There were no parents, no friends, no animals, and Mr. Darky was gone too.

Everything was just like it had been at the beginning; she was back to being alone, just as she had hoped.

But does she really want to be alone forever?

Kagarioka Tsubaki huddled in the corner, her small hands hugging her trembling body, sobbing incessantly, tears silently streaming down her face.

"That's good... that's good..."

"Tsubaki, don't cause trouble for everyone. Tsubaki can manage on her own..."

Kagarioka Tsubaki kept telling herself that this was the best ending, and that she could endure the loneliness.

Knock knock knock!

Knock knock knock!

The knocking sounded exceptionally clear in this silent world.

Kagarioka Tsubaki seemed not to hear, still immersed in pain and self-blame, weeping.

Knock knock knock!

Squeak...

The person outside stopped knocking and opened the door himself, coming in.

Edmond Dantès quietly entered the house, closed the door again, and found the Kagarioka Tsubaki inside.

A girl hiding in the corner, crying...

Edmond didn't know how to comfort her. He had no experience in this area. Compared to his Master, who was skilled at comforting children, he was completely helpless with a child.

Especially crying children.

Edmond had his own methods; he comforted the crying little girl in his own way.

Finding a dark corner as well, Edmond stood there motionless, quietly keeping her company.

Perhaps this won't stop Kagarioka Tsubaki from crying, nor will it make her feel happy and joyful again.

But at least... in this moment...

The little girl is not alone.

Her desire for solitude was kindly thwarted by a man named Edmond.

"Nobody likes being alone..."

Edmond watched the little girl quietly and said to himself.

His expression was indifferent, as if he had done something trivial, or that he had simply moved to a different place and was quietly hiding there, just like always, without any difference.

"Wait and hold on to hope!"

"You will be happy... you have that right."

Kagarioka Tsubaki used two Command Spells to restore all the actions that the plague had taken all along.

The magical mist that shrouded Snowfield vanished in an instant, just as the sun silently parted the morning fog and disappeared without a trace, as if it had never existed.

Everyone in the dream world was driven away, including the Kagarioka couple who had remained there.

At the Kuangqiu residence, the Kagarioka couple, upon regaining consciousness, immediately understood what had happened and rushed to the Central Hospital.

"Only one Command Spells is left, we absolutely cannot waste it!"

"That Heroic Spirit is so powerful, this is our chance!"

"We have a very good chance in this Holy Grail War, and we must definitely take control of the Command Spells!"

Their first thought wasn't of their daughter, but of the Holy Grail War, the Command Spells, and their own desires.

Is it pathetic? Is it hateful?

This is probably the most authentic Magus.

They loved Kagarioka Tsubaki, but they only loved her body—the body that could have become a top Magus and continued the Magecraft life of the Kugaoka family.

As for Kagarioka Tsubaki's personality, they never really cared.

"Damn it! Damn it! Damn it!"

Yuxian cursed fiercely, his face contorted with rage. Yuxian the children were afraid of him, standing timidly to the side, not daring to utter a sound.

After being banished from the dream world, Jesta disappeared without a trace; otherwise, Yuxian would have certainly shown him what despair was.

He had never been so angry; Jesta had crossed his line.

"That's the Dead Apostle who summoned you?"

He asked the fanatic.

The fanatic was equally furious. She nodded and said, "It's that demon. He has the ability to change his body."

Yuxian spat, "Don't let me find him! Otherwise, I don't mind playing the role of his Executor."

"Fu-Fu-!"

Fou let out a soft cry, as if in response to Yuxian's words.

Yuxian was unmoved and grabbed it in his hand, rubbing it incessantly.

"You, the First Ancestor, are truly useless. Even with your Dead Apostle causing trouble right under your nose, you don't even know how to do anything about it!"

"Fu..."

Fou felt wronged and wanted to tell Yuxian that the Dead Apostle were not under its jurisdiction.

However, seeing that Yuxian was in a bad mood, Fou Fu simply turned over and let Yuxian do whatever he wanted, just like scratching an itch.

"Senior, let's go to the Central Hospital quickly to check on her. I'm afraid something might have happened to her."

Mash reminded Yuxian with a worried look, "Now is not the time to tease Fou."

"Yes! Let's go over there right away!"

Yuxian was startled. He was so angry that he had forgotten such an important thing. He should slap himself twice.

The most important thing now is to go to Kagarioka Tsubaki and ensure her safety. We absolutely cannot let her get hurt again.

Knowing that Kagarioka Tsubaki is likely to be attacked by other Magus, Yuxian has no reason to believe that this is the case.

He took several steps at a time, rushing towards the Central Hospital, his brisk walk quickly turning into a run.

There are some things he can't control until he encounters them, but once he does, he can't just ignore them.

Moreover, he had already promised Abby that he would help Kagarioka Tsubaki.

So he's determined to take charge of this matter!

Section 540, Chapter Twenty-Six: Some answers can only be found by oneself.

Snowfield Central Hospital.

Outside Kagarioka Tsubaki's hospital room, a man stood there the whole time.

He stood in an inconspicuous corner, leaning against a pristine white wall, his gaze fixed on the doorway of the ward.

Sigma didn't know why he was there.

Are they here to kill the little girl in the hospital ward?

Perhaps he should do this. He was a participant in the Holy Grail War, as was the little girl in the ward. They were rivals, enemies.

He had been standing there for a long time, so long that his feet were numb, but he hadn't moved an inch.

"You're hesitating," the shadow's voice echoed in his mind.

"No, I'm just observing; it's a soldier's caution," Sigma replied calmly.

"You can rush in and kill her in just a few seconds."

"But that doesn't guarantee I can leave safely," Sigma continued to refuse.

Several voices in the shadows said simultaneously, as if mocking, "Don't lie to yourself, you can't do it."

"No, I can!" Sigma retorted firmly.

The shadows seemed to see through everything and stopped bothering Sigma, letting him make his own choice.

Their role is to observe and guide Sigma, not to interfere with him arbitrarily.

Sigma remained standing there, motionless, unsure of what to do.

"Kill her, then leave?"

"Or should we just leave?"

"Or perhaps Magus lying in ambush?"

He didn't understand which one was the best choice, the one he most wanted.

While Sigma remained confused and unable to make a choice, the Kagarioka couple arrived at the Central Hospital.

They stood at the door of the ward, their eyes constantly peering into the room, completely unaware of Sigma lurking in the corner.

Under Sigma's watchful eye, the two began to have a heated discussion.

"There's still one Command Spells left, what do we do now?"

"We can't let Tsubaki keep the Command Spells anymore. She won't use them at all. It's a waste, a sinful waste."

"Do you know how to transplant it?"

"No, but we can try. As long as we cut off Tsubaki's hand and keep the Command Spells, there will always be a way."

"Won't cutting off her hand affect her health? We still need her to leave offspring for the Heqiu family."

"This is a hospital. As long as it is treated promptly, I believe it will not affect Chun's reproductive system."

"Then let's get ready to get started quickly, lest something goes wrong."

Sigma stared blankly at the Kagarioka couple, listening intently to every word they said.

From the conversation between the Kagarioka couple, he learned that they were the parents of the little girl in the ward.

"So this is what parents are like?"

Sigma couldn't help but think of his mother, the unknown mother who died in Fuyuki.

Was my mother like that too?

Countless thoughts flashed through his mind, with the image of his mother, whose face he could no longer recall, lingering in his thoughts.
