Chapter 48
In the evening, John returned to the library after dinner, as before, and flipped through the books of the Magic Path in Eincibelen's collection. Speaking of Eincibelen, it is worthy of being one of the largest magical families in this world, even if it is not the artificial human field that he is good at, other fields can still find magic books that can be called high-quality or even superb in this library. Take the magic book about ore crystallization that John is reading now, even if it is given to the Tosaka family, who is good at this genre, it is a fine book to be treated seriously.
With the idea that "it's always good to learn more", John doesn't find fault with what type he is looking at. After all, you don't have to understand it, remember these things and bring them back, and there will naturally be a god to analyze them.
After reading the book for a while, John looked up and saw an unexpected visitor. To be honest, the people who came to find him at this time, John originally thought that Emiya Kiritsugu or Alice Phil, at least Saber came, but he didn't expect that the first person to come to him was actually this small figure: Illya Sharp, the daughter of Emiya Kiritsugu and his own lord.
Illyasfil first hid behind the bookcase and quietly looked at John, and after making sure that John had not done anything else, he came out from behind the bookcase, walked up to John, and said, "Caster, are you your mother's servant?
"Do you know about the Holy Grail War?" John asked rhetorically instead of answering Elijah's words.
Illya nodded, then said, "You'll protect her, won't you?"
John nodded and said, "I have to stay here until I figure out why I'm back in this world, so it's a must to keep the Lord safe." ”
Illya seemed satisfied with John's answer, nodded, and turned to run.
John watched as the small figure ran out of the library and continued to look down at the book. Speaking of crystallization magic, John will too, but unlike the crystallization magic in this world that uses various gems as a medium to carry out various magical magics, John's crystallization magic is a crystal condensed through life force, and this crystallization magic is only used for combat, such as white dragon breath, high-power attack magic such as soul crystallization gun, or enchantment attack magic magic such as crystallized magic weapons, but to say that crystallization magic is used for healing or restraint, John can't do it, so this book for John, even if the system is different, can broaden his horizons。 As the night passed, John took out all the books on crystallization magic in the library and put them aside to read slowly.
But Alice Phil had a rough night.
As we all know, due to the magical connection between the Servant and the Master, the Master is affected by the Servant's magic and sees the Servant's past when his own control ability is reduced, such as sleep. This is a great way for the Master to get to know his servants, and it's something Kiritsugu told Erie to pay attention to. After all, until now, Emiya Kiritsugu has not found the origin of Alice Field's servant, although he said that this servant is the god of ancient Greece, the god of fire Hephaestus, but even he knows that his inference has a very obvious loophole, that is, the dragon-like appearance of this servant when he first appeared. Although you didn't get the result you wanted, you don't have other ideas, even if you lie, your memories will not change, so tracing the origin of the slave from the memories of the servant is the last and best way to cut the heir.
Therefore, under the guidance of Emiya Kiritsugu, Alice Phil not only did not break the magic link with John while sleeping, but also increased the flow of magic energy. So, after Alice Fell into a deep sleep, he saw John's past, the never-ending fate that wandered between life and death, between infinite reincarnation.
At first, Ellie heard the low chime ringing in her ears. The bell was not very loud, but there seemed to be an inexplicable magic, and after the bell, Ellie found that the world that was originally pitch black in front of her began to appear bright. The light was not harsh, but because the transition between light and darkness made Alice Phil's eyes very uncomfortable, she could only close her eyes before getting used to it, and it was not until she was already barely able to open them that Alice Phil began to observe the place.
Very strange place, very uncomfortable. This was Alice Fair's first impression of the place. Different from the battlefield or palace I imagined before, this seems to be a cemetery, not only is there a variety of tombstones of different styles, arranged in a strange way, but also a figure can be seen not far away, just looking at it from a distance, you can see that the state of this figure is not normal. But, where is John?
Alice Phil knew that this was John's memory, and that the world was built with John's memory, so it was impossible to miss John. But Alice Fell glanced around, and saw not John, who should be in the most prominent position, except for a coffin covered with a lid.
Alice Field, who was looking for John, suddenly heard a strange noise behind her, and turned her head to look at the source of the sound, which was actually from the large coffin she had seen earlier. Under Alice Field's astonished gaze, the coffin was filled with the person who had pushed the coffin board open, and a pale hand sat up on the edge of the coffin, shaking his head like a person who had just woken up after a long sleep, a little dazed. Seeming to feel much better after shaking his head, the pale figure stood up from the coffin. At this time, Alice Fell saw the face of this man: his servant, John.
Alice Fell covered her mouth with her hand in surprise as she watched her servant fumble for something in the coffin. After a while, John found a few gold coins under the coffin, and seemed to be dissatisfied, and put them into an unknown space - yes, Alice Fell had not been able to find a place to put them on the simple rag wrapped around her waist.
After placing the gold coins, John searched around again, and finally found a wooden stick that fit in his hand. Holding a wooden stick in both hands, it waved it with a "whirring" sound. Nodding with some satisfaction, John saw a somewhat tattered wooden sign beside him, and held it in his left hand as a shield. Although it is not used at all, but now the conditions are poor, and it can only be settled.
Alice Phil nodded after watching John take the weapon and armor, and rushed to the figure not far away without looking back, and after running to the figure, she didn't wait for the figure to react, and without saying a word, she raised the wooden stick in her right hand and smashed it at the figure's head.
