IV - Heroic Spirits and Spirits
"Same, same age?!! It's really fake!!"
Hearing Sixteen Nights Chihiro's statement, it was not so much taken aback, but directly stunned.
Speculation that Sixteen Nights Chihiro may be a future heroic spirit is only an assumption of Rin Tosaka in the final analysis.
It's really a heroic spirit from the future, which is surprising enough in itself, but I didn't expect that he was still in the same era as himself!
The brain almost stopped working for a moment, and Rin Tosaka subconsciously asked, "Where are you...... Wrong! Since you are from the future, that is, do you know the final outcome of this Holy Grail War?"
"Master, I'm going to correct you."
Talking about this kind of thing involving the "future", Chihiro rubbed her forehead helplessly and said, "From the future, it is different from predicting the future and knowing all the future." Do you know what happened at this time of the morning in England?"
"Huh? You know what?"
"I'm not the manager of the world, of course I don't know. In this era, I am similar to you, I get up in the morning and go to school in the morning, and I go home after school in the afternoon...... I am not the all-knowing and all-powerful God of Western religions. No, there are no things, things and feelings, even if you ask me, I can't answer. Master, you're so excited, too. ”
Sixteen Nights Chihiro's words can be described as correct. Sounds flawless.
Although the voice is not harsh, it is still a gentle, peaceful voice, but because of this, it is amazingly lethal.
"Hug, sorry. After all, this is the first time I've met someone from the future. ”
The excitement in his heart was extinguished by Chihiro's rhetorical question of Sixteen Nights, and Rin Tosaka reflected a little in his heart.
There are a lot of questions I want to ask, but I can't sort out an orderly order anyway, at that moment, Rin Tosaka took a deep breath, calmed down and asked again, "Archer, you said that you are the same age as me now, right?" And you're still a high school student?"
"Ahh Although I changed schools for some reason, my first high school was indeed called ...... Misaki High School? That's probably the name. By the way, I ran away from home at a very young age. When I returned to the shrine to help, I was almost twenty-eight years old. ”
"Woo, there are still runaways...... It's really a modern person. ”
The head that has always been proud is back in operation.
Judging by Chihiro's words in the Sixteen Nights, there is no doubt that this silver-haired Heroic Spirit is an outsider to the Holy Grail War. It should be impossible to find out the results of the Holy Grail War, or the tactics used by the enemy in the Holy Grail War, etc.
And, more importantly.
Judging from the fact that Sixteen Nights Chihiro claims to be a "living god" and helps in the shrine, Sixteen Nights Chihiro should be a related member of the local Shinto religion...... As far as Rin Tosaka knows, these sects, which still worship the gods, have always been closed to themselves, almost isolated from the contemporary world of Sato. It can be inferred from this that it is extremely unlikely that Sixteen Nights Chihiro has anything to do with magicians, clock towers, and the like...... It's a pity, but the useful information that Chihiro can ask for in the mouth of Sixteen Nights is likely to be limited.
"Hey, just to make sure, have you ever heard of the Clock Tower?"
"No, let's not talk about the old priests, I don't stay closed all day, I just know how to sit at home and meditate. What the hell do you imagine me to be?......" Chihiro Sixteen Nights was obviously a little dissatisfied with Rin's question, and replied with half-open eyes, "The so-called Clock Tower is the magicians' academy, right?" I heard about it from a magician's friend. ”
"Huh? Do you really have no problem dealing with magicians?" Not caring about Chihiro's displeasure at Sixteen Nights, Rin Tosaka blinked in surprise.
"I'm not so weak that someone else will control my dating status. If you have any complaints, just talk to me with your fists and charms...... That's what I've always told them. ”
"It's really an accident, I really can't tell from the appearance that your style is so tough."
"Well, that being said...... I was once chased by a shrine maiden with a kitchen knife. Sure enough, it's not too good to be absent from work all day! After that, I also reflected for a while. ”
"The shrine maiden chased after her with a kitchen knife...... What kind of weird scene is this?"
Imagine that Chihiro Sixteen Nights, dressed in a priest's costume, is chased and killed by a shrine maiden with a kitchen knife, and no matter how you think about it, this situation is unimaginable.
However, considering that Chihiro Sixteen Nights, who is a male, looks so feminine, maybe that witch has a tiger's back and a puff of muscles?
The scene was so beautiful that I didn't dare to continue thinking about it.
Knowing that he would not get any useful information if he continued to dwell on this topic, Rin Tosaka shook his head, banished useless thoughts, and asked, "Let's not mention this yet, there is another thing that I am quite interested in." ”
"Huh?"
"Standing in front of me, you are from the future...... So, what about you in this day and age? I mean, can the same exist in the same plane? Can you meet with him?"
Meeting someone from the future may not come across such an opportunity once in a lifetime.
Anyway, there won't be a sudden attack of heroic spirits, and compared to the Holy Grail War, what Rin Tosaka is more interested in at this moment is the topic of the future and traveling through time. As a magician by the limit, she felt her inquisitive soul burning violently!
"Well, although I haven't met him yet, basically there will be no problem just meeting him, right?" After a pause, Sixteen Nights Chihiro held out a finger and explained, "Moreover, there is something worth correcting. What you say about "the same me" is not true. The so-called Heroic Spirit, from the moment he became a Heroic Spirit, is no longer the original him...... It's the same with the gods. For example, like a robber leader, who used to take women away as his own responsibility, but later realized that he became a monk practicing medicine. Here, although the bandit leader is still the same person, that person is no longer the robber leader. I think you can think in this way. ”
In other words, because the "monk who practiced medicine" and the "bandit leader who abducted women" were different in nature, they were no longer the same person. It's not the same person, so it doesn't matter if we meet?"
"Hmm. Think of it in general. The only difference between becoming a god and this example is that the sublimation of "quality" is different...... The former is the soul, divinity, faith, etc., which have been reborn in all aspects, and the latter is only the heart and soul purified, so the former has been recognized by the world. The exception allows him to be "another being", who is only theoretically no longer the same person...... Well, but imaginary things will come true. Imagination alone can create gods and heroes. And who can say that the bandit leader will not be canonized as "holy" because of his future act of salvation, and finally merge with people's worship to become "another being" in the true sense of the word? Everything is possible, the laws of cause and effect, logical deductions, interference phenomena, all theories are so powerless in the face of mystery. It's an interesting world, isn't it?"
P.S.1: The author's new book "It's Nothing Wrong to Seek Encounters in the Dungeon" has moved to Xle Xke, which should be known to most people, right?
