Webb Welwitt stayed at the house for a whole day until the sun went down, when he was sent back to the Mackenzie house by the family of the family. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

For the following week, Webb reported at 8 a.m. and returned home at 6 p.m., just as he did when he went to school at the "clock tower".

And the time at the house is not much different from in the "clock tower", with four classes in the morning and three classes in the afternoon, and the schedule is very tight.

A week later, Webb left Fuyuki City and took a morning flight from F Airport to leave Japan.

One man comes, and he goes alone.

Ignorant when you come, mature when you go.

Although it was only a few days, it made this teenager completely change a person.

Also changed by these ten days is the teenager's teacher, Kenneth Al Meloy Achpolud.

"Webb, you're on the plane now. Kenneth, who was in a wheelchair, looked at the western sky, stunned.

Shinji, who was standing beside him, nodded and complained, "I'm really worried, why don't you send him?"

"As you said, from now on I am a missing person, and a missing person naturally cannot appear in a densely populated public place. Moreover, I have always disliked Webb as a student, and I was, is, and will not change in the future. Again, he doesn't like me as a teacher, I'm sure. ”

Hearing Kenneth's words, Shinji shook his head helplessly: "Really, why can't you two be frank, obviously you both recognize each other's abilities." ”

"Agreeing is not the same as liking. ”

Kenneth reached out and closed the curtains, having grown to like the dark environment since he had been locked in the basement for a few days by Shinji.

"I admit that he has first-class insight, analysis, induction, and generalization skills, but his background determines that he is not qualified to practice magic. No matter how high he can reach theoretically, he can't translate it into results, and such a person can hardly be called a good magician. ”

"But he can be a good magic teacher. Over the course of seven days, he wrote down a lot of your work, something that no one else might have mastered in months. You've also listened to his lectures, which are simple and clear. Truth be told, you're far worse than him in this respect, even though you're a 'color bit' magician. ”

Kenneth must have been angry because of Shinji's words before the Holy Grail War, but after several blows, Kenneth has long lost his former pride, and his whole person has become much more stable.

"I admit that he would be a good teacher, but that's what makes it all the more pathetic. Every magician has the belief of searching for the truth of magic, and Weber can only send others on the path to the truth, but he can only watch his students surpass him one by one and go further than him. I can't accept such a path, and this is also my disagreement with Weber. ”

"The contradiction of values. Shinji sighed and said no more.

"I've done everything I need to do, what about you?"

"It's all arranged. Webb would first go to India, then to Persia, and finally to Macedonia, which was the path taken by Iskandar, the king of conquest. Along the way, Weber will summarize what you have taught him, organize it into a system, and prepare it for publication. ”

"In the meantime, it's time for word of your disappearance to spread. The magicians gathered under the Elmelois banner will gradually divide into various factions, some will remain loyal to you, some will secretly form factions, and some will join other families, which is a good opportunity to distinguish people's hearts. ”

"Those who are loyal to you will be the core of the future Elmeloi, and those who have different intentions will gradually be marginalized, and those who have bad intentions towards the Aqipolud family will be the ones who must be liquidated. As for how to tell, Emiya Kiritsugu's eyes in the Magicians Association will watch for us. ”

Hearing the name that had reduced him to such a situation, Kenneth couldn't help but snort. Although he has accepted the reality, he still has a grudge against Emiya Kiritsugu.

Shinji glanced at Kenneth and continued.

"Because you are just missing, no one knows if you are really dead, so the enemy's appearance is not too ugly, as long as you don't know your true situation for a day, the Aqipolud family will not be in danger of overturning. Of course, there will be damage, but as long as you can recover in time and return to the 'clock tower', all the crises will be solved. ”

"What if I can't recover in time?" Kenneth asked with a cold face.

"It's hard to say, although we have made arrangements similar to publishing your new research to stabilize people's minds, but I don't know how much effect it will have. It is not impossible for Archipolud's family to be injured, and it is not impossible for his vitality to be seriously damaged. ”

Shinji didn't say anything nice, and told the truth.

But this is much better than the original world line, Kenneth died in Fuyuki City, the source magic mark inherited by nine generations was damaged by ninety percent, and the Archipolud family fell into the middle of the family in a few years, owed astronomical foreign debts, and was on the verge of ruin.

Because the core of the magician's family is people, as long as there are people, the Aqipolud family is there, and the banner of El Meloi will not fall.

"So, you have to recover as soon as possible, the sooner you recover, the less the loss of the Archipolud family. ”

"I know, I'll cooperate with the treatment. Kenneth nodded, as if with some kind of determination.

"Then sign this one. Shinji opened a piece of parchment in front of Kenneth,

To the average person, the contents of the parchment must look like a string of plates and marks of unknown meaning. But in the eyes of the magician, it is a contract that cannot be violated—a self-imposed testimony.

In a society of magicians full of cunning and cunning, this is one of the most demanding spell contracts, and is only used when making a promise that will never be reversed.

Using the function of one's own magic circuit, the forced spell is imposed on the caster, and in principle, its effect cannot be removed by any means. Legend has it that even if you want to trade your life for it, as long as the magic mark is still there, your soul will be bound, which is a very dangerous magic trick. For magicians, taking out such supporting documents means the utmost sincerity.

The testimony was lengthy, and it detailed the various terms and prohibitions that Kenneth and the Makiri family should fulfill. Kenneth read word for word, and it took a moment to look up and look at Shinji in surprise.

"You Kiyo family really don't want to take advantage of this opportunity to secretly control the Archipolud family?"

The conditions were not too harsh, but too generous, so generous that Kenneth couldn't believe it.

"I don't want to. Shinji shook his head, "As you can see, the Maki family is so big, just such a few people, compared to the intertwined Archipolud family, my family is too small. A python may be able to swallow a sheep, but not an elephant, and it is easy to kill itself if it is not greedy enough. Therefore, a reciprocal, trustworthy partnership is more appropriate. In fact, I have already taken a big advantage, if it was before the Holy Grail War, I am afraid that a family like the Makiri family might not even be able to enter the door of the Archipolud family. ”

"You-" Kenneth sighed as he looked into Shinji's eyes without any hypocrisy, and then at the genuine testimony in his hand, "-you're such a little monster. ”

"Thank you for the compliment. ”

"I really don't know what kind of mood I will look back on in another 20 years. ”

"No one can say for sure what will happen in 20 years, people should focus on the present. ”

"You're right. ”

Kenneth bit his finger and signed his name on the contract with a special quill dipped in blood.

At this point, the contract was concluded. ”

"It was a pleasure to work with. ”

PS: To emphasize, magic engraving is essentially a crystallization of the magician's knowledge and achievements. That is to say, as long as it is a magician, regardless of whether there is a transplant from the ancestors, he will also have the crystallization of his own knowledge and achievements, that is, his own magic engraving or not enough to be qualified to be called the predecessor of the engraving, so he thinks that the self-coercive testimony is valid for all magicians.
