Illya, who had awakened from her slumber, had no idea of her future fate, and as soon as she woke up, she rode on her father's head and shouted, "Kiritsu, Kiritsu".

In order not to make her daughter worry unnecessarily, Kiritsugu, who was in agony in her heart, could only barely squeeze out a smile to play with Illya.

After an in-depth analysis of the research data of the third law of Einzbellen, Lu Xiao has a clear understanding of their research direction.

Lu Xiao, who had entered the root, obtained the content of the core part of the third law in advance, but because the foundation was not strong, he was not able to integrate the knowledge given by the root for the time being.

For example, if the process of comprehending the third method is regarded as building blocks, Lu Xiao has obtained the most core building block part from the beginning, and all he needs to do is to select the rest of the parts that are most suitable for complete splicing with it according to the shape of this core part.

However, the total amount of research results produced by Einzberen over thousands of years is very large, and Lu Xiao must first sort out their research ideas, and then according to the core content of the third method, screen out the useless parts in a large number of materials, and complete the final assembly.

This process is not destined to be completed in a day or two, and Alethea calculates according to Lu Xiao's learning speed, and it will take about half a year or so to see results.

Through the study of the third law of Einzbelen, Lu Xiao also has an understanding of Illya's physical condition.

In order to establish a connection with the Great Grail system, Einzberen made a lot of changes to Illya before she was born.

Like Alice Phil, Elia's soul has been specially tuned by alchemy to transform it into a container that can easily hold the small chalice.

The Holy Grail War only takes place every 60 years, and during these 60 years, Einzberen is able to produce a new Grail Container that far surpasses Illya's.

Displeased by Emiya's defeat, Yubstahaid discarded Kiritsugu and Alice Phil's daughter in the garbage heap and began to prepare for the next Holy Grail War.

Illya's physical adjustment was not really completed, which caused her body to grow much slower than expected, and her soul was also half-human, half-grail, half-hanging.

Physical problems can be adjusted by the crown puppeteer, but the soul aspect is really not Orange's strong point.

Illya, who was clinging to Kiritsugu, always had an innocent smile on her face, and she couldn't feel the heavy atmosphere around her when she was young, and she was playing with her father in an optimistic way.

Lu Xiao sighed silently in his heart, "I hope to comprehend the third method before leaving, this shouldn't be the end of Illya." ’

……

Illya came to Kanbuzi City for the first time, and at Lu Xiao's suggestion, as an employee of Garan no Do, the local host, Witchjo Kiri-e took Fujino, the Tosaka sisters, and Illya out shopping together.

Lu Xiao stayed behind to ask Orange about the progress of the investigation he had commissioned earlier.

As he waved goodbye to Illya with a smile on his face, Kiritsugu's face quickly fell, and he sat down on the couch in a depressed manner, smoking cigarette after cigarette, as if he was going to escape from the harsh reality in this way.

Lu Xiao and Orange were quite pitiful for his plight, and the two glanced at each other, leaving Kiritsugu alone to slowly adjust his mood, and went to the roof of the small building together to continue the detailed conversation.

After months of secret visits and investigations, Orange investigated the trajectory of Huangye Zonglian's activities in Guanbuzi City in the past few years.

In addition to serving as a special medical advisor at Guanbuzi Hospital, he also worked as a priest at Reedwon Women's College.

Lu Xiao has a strong desire to complain about this, and in a macro sense, Huangye Zonglian can indeed be regarded as a member of the belief system.

However, the Tiantai sect of Buddhism and the Christian Eight Poles practiced by Liyuan Women's College cannot be beaten together, even if it is to use magic hypnosis to bewitch the dean, this technique is a little too rough.

In addition, she also worked as a guest teacher at a private high school and invested in the construction of a building that had not yet been built.

Araya Zongren didn't hide his whereabouts too much, and even before a systematic investigation, Orange could vaguely sense his activities in the city.

"Araya's actions are very chaotic, east and west, and it is difficult to find out his hidden true purpose."

"Whew~"

Orange spat out a choking puff of inferior cigarette and continued, "According to my understanding of Araya's obsession, through his ultimate goal of pursuing the root cause, I have basically found out his true purpose. ”

Extinguishing the remaining one-third of the cigarette butts on the metal railing in front of him, Cangqi Orange suddenly asked coldly: "Lu Xiao, have you heard of the Liangyi family, the only remaining of the four major families of exorcism?" ”

"Of course I did."

Lu Xiao shrugged his shoulders and said, "I also had a contact with the eldest lady of the Liangyi family by coincidence before. ”

"Oh?"

Orange's eyes flickered: "What a coincidence, the target of Araya is this Miss Liangyi." ”

Through the investigation of the Liangyi family, Orange has a general understanding of their family pursuits, and has a relatively clear understanding of the existence of the two rituals.

"Roots, I really didn't expect that the exorcism family that wandered on the edge of the magic world could accidentally create a descendant who connected to the roots, is this a prank of inhibition?"

Lu Xiao has been watching the Empty Realm for many years, and although he still remembers who the three chess pieces of Akuya were, he can't remember why Akuya chose these three people.

Orange elaborates on Araya's goals.

"Awakening the origin of the deep human soul is Araya's main research project."

"He hopes to catalyze her Origin Awakening through three people who are similar in nature but have opposite behaviors to the two rituals, so that he can control the body of the two rituals that go straight to the root, and fulfill his long-cherished wish for more than 200 years."

"Similar and opposite......"

Orange explained this step, and Lu Xiao gradually turned over the long-term memories in the depths of his mind.

Once caught in the pursuit of the roots, most magicians will be driven by obsession to drill into the horns, and Araya Zonglian is no exception.

Lu Xiao has no interest in his original goal of pursuing the roots, and in order to ensure that Fujino's future life will not be invaded by Araya again, Lu Xiao hopes to solve him once and for all.

However, Lu Xiao's main task at the moment is to realize the third method, and there is not so much time to entangle with the Wild Sect Lotus, before leaving Guanbuzi City in winter, Lu Xiao will investigate the Wild Wild Sect Lotus's lair as a commission and release it to the orange.

The amount of remuneration for the commission is very substantial.

Although Orange has not found out the location of Araya's magic workshop for the time being, she has already captured the trajectory of Araya Zonglian's activities in Guanbuzi City.

"Continue to investigate, don't startle the snake for the time being."

Lu Xiao calmly ordered: "To fight a snake, you have to hit seven inches, especially this kind of puppeteer who can change his body at any time, make sure to catch the real bodies of Araya and Aruba at one time." ”

"No problem, since I have received your money, I will definitely abide by the contract and investigate the results."

The conversation that was unknown to outsiders ended here for the time being, and Lu Xiao and Orange changed the topic to compare and discuss the alchemy of the Einzberen family and the puppet technology of Orange.

"Huh?"

When they went downstairs and returned to the workshop, Lu Xiao and Orange stopped at the same time, and the two glanced at each other.

"Did you get the message too?"

"Well, the folk customs of Guanbuzi City are really 'simple'."

"Haha~" Orange scratched his head a little embarrassed: "This kind of gangster will be in any city, leave it to Fog Painting to solve it." ”

Lu Xiao thought about it and shook his head and said, "Forget it, in order to avoid being broken by people afterwards, I'll take a trip." ”

Lu Xiao accepted Rin's invitation to come out to breathe fresh air today, and by the way, move her ossified brain.

Rin had already signaled for help, if he hadn't responded in time...... One can imagine how angry Rin would have been afterwards.

"Because of Illya's business, I'm not in a very good mood today, so let's soothe my mood."

Orange: "...... Don't take it too hard. ”
