Chapter 31: Salute to the Guardians
"Slow down, Mr. Helsing, and I wish you the best of luck finding the right wand for you."
Lynn walked out of Ollivander's wand shop, listening to the voice behind him, he couldn't help but sigh, showing a sad look, if someone who knew Lynn saw him like this, I am afraid that they would be frightened.
"As a result, I still don't have a wand I can use."
For magicians, it is common sense to use magic dresses for assistance, and even the school uniforms of the clock tower are simple magic dresses, after all, using magic is a big burden, and it is good to save effort if you can save effort.
Some instructors will give students the AZOTH sword, which is said to have been passed down from the alchemist Paracelsus, which has a magical effect and is a very practical universal magic dress.
Some magicians choose to make their own, such as magicians who are not good at fighting, and will put their magic essence into magic ceremonies to create a universal magic costume, such as the moon spirit essence of the first generation of Elmeroy. There are some magicians with physical disabilities who will create magic dresses that are convenient for them to move, such as the wheelchair of Fiore, the sister of the Lynn family.
Depending on the genre, some magicians choose gems with a lot of magic power as weapons (gem magic), astrology uses knives, crystal balls, tarot cards and other items to perform magic, or there are various schools that use bugs and beasts that are suitable for transforming into demons instead of magic dresses.
Of course, Lynn's original wand is also a magic dress, as a heritage department from Hogwarts, he is good at most magic factions, and of course he likes to use a magic wand that can use most of the magic tricks, a total length of eleven and a third inches, made of elderwood, and has a dragon's heart vein (a subspecies containing dragon blood, that is, a flying dragon), this wand is a rare item that can be linked to Lynn's parents.
It's a pity that when he was in Fuyuki City, because he accidentally went berserk, he has now turned into some kind of strange man-eating flower and is kept in a pot, and is currently being tended by Illya and Miyu in his place in Fuyuki.
Originally, he wanted to come to Diagon Alley to find Levander's wand shop to make one for his own use when he returned to the Clock Tower, but it turned out to be ......
"Hey......"
Thinking of this, he sighed again, lowered his head and slowly moved his steps, preparing to go home to find Baluge.
Maybe the maid lady who had booked her plane ticket was ready to pack everything.
The previous wand was tailor-made by him when he was a child, which not only matched his magic circuit, but also used it easily, and was an irreplaceable equipment for him who used "Lynn's Formation Trick". There is no way to reforge it, now that his origin has awakened, the constantly changing "variables" have made it a pipe dream, no matter how powerful Ollivander is, it will be difficult to create this special wand.
Although his chain, the "Serpent of Nidhogg", is a magic dress specially designed for his magic, the chains hidden in the shadows are not something that can be leaked out at random after all.
"I really can't do it, let's find a replacement."
He thought so.
This time.
He suddenly felt a weight on his shoulder, and someone avoided the venom's ever-present perception and suddenly appeared beside him and patted him on the shoulder.
"Hey, make it easy for your magician."
The person who came dodged the spikes formed by the venom's subconscious mimicry, and appeared in an instant where the venom couldn't reach as if it were moving in space.
"It's me."
Lynn followed the prestige.
In the watch tower, there are many such strengths.
But avoiding the perception of an alien creature, and it is also a otherworldly thing, is so rare that if he didn't know that those big people had no thoughts about him after he confessed his guilt, he would have thought that person had come to assassinate him.
But then I thought about it.
"No, this is Diagon Alley, a place for magicians to relax and entertain, even assassins won't act here."
Thinking so, he saw the appearance of the person who came.
ββ¦β¦ Venom, don't have to back off, stab this old guy to death! β
"Okay half-body."
At the command of the half-body, Lynn's clothes suddenly burst out, several scarlet eyeballs opened, and the clothes turned into hundreds of spikes and pierced through the comerβand then, there was no more.
In just an instant, Lynn found himself at an altitude of more than a thousand meters, and fell at a speed dozens of times higher than the normal level.
It's phantom shifting, no, no, it's some kind of magic that is even more efficient than illusion shifting.
"Wait, I'm joking, don't just kill me!"
"Hmph." With a cold snort, Lynn noticed that the air around him was changing rapidly, and when he came back to his senses, he found himself sitting in the Leaky Cauldron Bar, and the former owner, Tom, was showing him a toothless smile.
Taking a few quick breaths to soothe the pain in his internal organs from the high-speed fall just now, Lynn reached out and touched his face, feeling something wet.
"Blood, tsk, it just fell so fast that the skin can't withstand the pressure." Feeling the wound from the high-speed fall quickly healed under the blood of the Dead Apostle, Lynn took a deep breath.
"Well, what are you doing with me, aren't you supposed to be working in your office at this time, or am I mistakenly remembering that the hours tower department was a mess during the time I went to Japan? Or are you lazy at work again? Lord Zelrich. β
Opposite him, the Jewel Man, the Marshal of the Demon Dao, the pillar of the Magic Society, the Ancestor of the Dead Apostles, and the Second Magician, looked at him with a smile.
ββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββ
"I thought I'd be in your office the next time I saw you, you know, I'm talking about the inside."
Leaky Cauldron Bar.
After sending back a message to Balug that she would not go for a while, Lynn relaxed, ordered a butterbeer, took a sip, and began to complain to the old man opposite.
For Lynn, it was just a knee-jerk decision to let Venom strike, and his body still remembered the last time he was hit by two magicians at the same time, and that sour feeling made him ignore the difference in strength between the two people. Although the results are obvious, Lynn, who realizes that she has succeeded in revenge (the sudden transformation of the venom scared the jewel man), is now full of pride.
"I haven't been there much lately, the world is fine, and it's okay not to pay attention to the parallel world for the time being."
The old man casually placed his elbows on the table, his hands touching his fingers, and his falcon-like eyes stared at Lynn, as if unintentionally.
"Although I have learned from your report about your actions against the Shadow of the Void and your activities in Fuyuki City, I would like to hear if there is something you haven't included in your report?"
"I still can't hide it from you."
Putting down the butterbeer with a wry smile, Lynn did not hesitate, pouring beans and telling the old man in front of him about his previous speculations and thoughts, as well as his conversation with Rocco Belfebon.
"Yes."
The jewel fell into deep thought.
He has always been paying attention to Lynn's actions, after all, Lynn is broadly saying that he is helping the jewel to work, whether it is to recover the fragments of the Shadow of Nothingness on behalf of the current Tenth Ancestor, or to help Rin Tosaka and Luvia, he has been "following". So he actually knew that Lynn was secretly hiding Illya and Miyu in Fuyuki City, but he didn't want to care about it, and he just thought it was funny.
However, this matter is an exception.
If anyone is really coveting the Great Holy Grail, then the jewel will not let it go anyway. Even if he didn't consider it from the perspective of strength and interests, as an old friend of someone who sacrificed himself, he didn't want his old friend's body to be used in vain.
"Is the news certain?"
"I'm not sure, it's not uncertain, it's just that there must be a shady scene in Tokyo." Lynn said.
The next moment, the jewel who continued to maintain that position snapped his fingers.
He used the second method of parallel world interference with the spatial transfer magic of his subordinates, as a magician, he was even able to travel through the entire earth without a sound, and Lynn found himself holding a butterbeer in a spherical void before he could see the changes around him.
It's the starry sky, Lynn thought.
Alas, it's false.
The jeweler has always had two offices, one on the surface, on a certain level of the watch tower, and the other here. An endless false starry sky surrounds the small platform, with only one chapter adorned with throne-like seats, crushing the air around it with a supreme presence.
Obviously, half a second ago, His Excellency Marshal of the Demon Dao, who was sitting with Lynn in the Leaky Cauldron Bar, was like an old man everywhere.
And now he is like an emperor sitting in his own exclusive seat.
Majestic, yet dignified.
"Before the next transfer, can you please say it first?"
Lynn, who was caught off guard by the butterbeer, looked at the jeweler.
There was no gravity in this little otherworld, and everything except the chair where the jewel was sitting was in Brownian motion, like a vacuum, around him.
"I'll pay attention next time."
The Demon Marshal sitting on the throne looked around seriously, and Lynn also turned his head to look at him with his movements.
As mentioned earlier, this is the "starry sky".
Endless stars dotted in the distance, and a linear star map quickly circled the throne and flowed towards the periphery. The structural diagram that ordinary people can swallow up even their souls as long as they look at it represents the pinnacle of His Excellency Marshal of the Demon Dao - Parallel World Interference.
Each starlight here represents a parallel world.
This is the "Ritoma", the temple of Kishua Zelrich Hubeino, the thousand-year-old of the King's Landing Magic Society.
"Well, it suddenly feels funny."
"What's wrong?"
"It's just that when I saw this starry sky, I remembered a stupid astronomy department I met two days ago." Lynn, who was floating in mid-air, said as he wiped his face.
"Heh, so what."
Examining the lines of the starlight, the jewel asked.
"Well, Olga Marie, when she was arguing with me, she boasted that her Chaldean organization was the guardian of humanity, and now that she thinks about it, she suddenly wants to laugh, because that guy doesn't understand, really doesn't understand. Isn't it funny that you've been doing useless work and refusing to admit it, you see? β
"But what does this have to do with me?"
Jewel stopped and raised an eyebrow at Lynn.
"The fool who claims to be righteous, and the empty execution of the delusion that he will never see the end, isn't this the foolish act of a fool who moves mountains. What's more, isn't it ridiculous that they are clearly in the Tower of Watches, but they don't know who is really guarding the world in this world? β
As she spoke, Lynn gave a decent salute.
"Salute, to His Excellency the Marshal of the Demon Dao who has guarded the endless parallel world of mankind for more than 2,000 years."

PS: In the last few days, I almost collapsed (lying down) first a bunch of things were thrown on my body, and then I fell ill again, and I haven't touched the computer for several days...... Tsk,Continue to resume the update (continue to lie)
PS2: The "spherical space" here is the one that appears in the FSF comics, and unlike the antique office that appears in Moi, it seems to be the place where the jewel man really observes the world - like just seeing when a big spider wakes up and then interfering in the world to keep it from waking up. By the way, it is mentioned in the comic that "there is still a hundred years to deal with it (the big spider)", maybe in the future FSF plot and novel, it will explain why the big spider did not appear in the UO sequence of the land of steel, after all, the six men's clothing is thinking about waking up the big spider =-=
PS3: Compared to what the jewel man did, FGO Lichardea is really a little family, but the old man is a true guardian who looks at "Ah, this world line is completely wiped out" and then calmly drinks tea every day! Moreover, the concept of time travel in the middle of the month is included under the second law (the body of the fifth law is unknown), so the space-time technology in FGO can actually be regarded as under the second law.
