Chapter 102: Let's Go to School!
Emiya Shirou was adopted by Emiya Kiritsugu when he was very young, and most of the time his adoptive father and him lived alone in this large house.
Aside from seeing Fujimura Taiga often, Emiya Shirou's life circle is small - although he has a good personality and is very warm and polite to anyone, there are only a few people who really become his friends.
So after the death of Emiya Kiritsugu, Emiya's family was deserted most of the time, like the situation where a group of people get together to eat now, almost never.
After a lively dinner, Emiya Shirou sent Sakura back again, and when he came back, he saw the people who were still gathered together, Emiya Shirou and Artoria, and then remembered to ask Ethan about the identity of the strange woman next to him - he had been talking about Artoria before, and he had almost forgotten about it.
"This is Diana, the daughter of Zeus. β
Needless to say, a sentence of Zeus's daughter made these people understand how special Diana's identity was - and thinking back to Ethan's previous lying on Diana's body, the natural intimate action also revealed the true relationship between the two people.
"So...... Are you actually the god of Olympus?"
"You don't have to guess my identity, my real name is Ethan, and I am indeed not a well-known person. β
Skaha already knew this, and CΓΊ Chulainn, Artoria, and even Emiya Shirou had been speculating about Ethan's true identity and suspecting that he was actually some famous being.
It was only now that I got a positive answer from Ethan, he was indeed not a well-known person, but no one thought he was not strong enough.
A demigod who can bend the rules of the world and easily defeat Skaha, a demigod with god-killing skills, and even a demigod girlfriend, when he is not in good health......
Ethan's strength was beyond the limits of what people here could imagine, and considering that Ethan seemed to be able to travel through countless worlds at will, they really couldn't think of the right adjectives to describe him.
"But...... How did you become a child?"
"Something went wrong with my body, and I reshaped my body to get rid of those problems completely...... Even if it hadn't been for this accident, I would have rebuilt my body sooner or later. β
"Remodeling?"
Emiya Shirou didn't understand these things, CΓΊ Chulainn had a lot of knowledge of magic, and he was a powerful warrior himself, so he immediately understood why Ethan did this.
"Is it because your original body can't meet your needs?"
"Almost, it's all about moving to a higher level anyway. β
"That's amazing!"
CΓΊ Chulainn carefully looked at Ethan's current body, before Ethan didn't even have to move his hand, he could easily defeat himself, and now he said that he had reshaped his body and raised it to a higher level, I don't know how strong he is now.
But I can't see it, isn't there still a master?
"Ethan was a powerful demigod when he fought us before...... Now he has become a true God. β
And so it was. β
Cuchulainn looked unexpected, but Emiya Shirou swallowed a large mouthful of saliva in fright.
"Oh God~"
The presence of a god in his home and eating at a table with him is inconceivable even though he has experienced it himself.
"If someone had said that I would have had the opportunity to eat with the gods in the future, I would have thought it was April Fool's Day. β
After a few more casual conversations, Emiya Shirou assigned rooms to everyone, and although he guessed that none of these people needed to sleep, he still did his duty as a master and arranged everything for the guests.
When he was done entertaining the guests, he went back to rest.
Illya had been sitting there, knowing that this sister of mine had something to talk to Ethan, so he avoided it very familiarly.
"Why don't you go to the yard and talk?"
"It's too cold. β
"Okay!"
Winter nights aren't very pleasant, and Ethan is fine, but Elijah loves snow and hates the cold. He Kang didn't even have snow outside at this time, why did she go out to blow the cold wind?
"What do you want to talk about?"
"I don't know. β
The two of them weren't the only ones in the room, Diana sat on the sidelines, looking at the two children in conversation quietly without speaking, pretending to be a ball of transparent air.
But she's such a big person, and those long legs are there, and she can't attract attention if she wants to, so although Illya is talking to Ethan, her eyes are always on Diana's body, looking up and down and going back and forth.
"What do you want?"
"I don't know. β
"And what do you want to do?"
β...... I don't know ......."
Illya withdrew her gaze, she was now very confused, completely unaware of what she was supposed to do.
Originally, her motivation was revenge, and killing Emiya Shirou to capture the Holy Grail was almost all her motivation to survive, and as long as she did that, she could wait to die without regrets - or she could not do it, and be killed before she could complete her goal.
After all, there is no such thing as the Holy Grail War, and there are no immortals.
As a result, he inexplicably summoned such a strange berserker as Ethan, and then this berserker did not play cards according to the routine and directly destroyed the Holy Grail War.
That's not all, because of the distortion of the rules of the world, the Einzberen family is considered to have perished, and the Holy Grail has been destroyed because of it, so it can be said that the Holy Grail War no longer exists.
He also learned the truth that Emiya Kiritsugu did not go to Einzberen's house to pick him up in the first place, because he was seriously injured in the Holy Grail War and his strength was seriously reduced, and he couldn't break the barrier of Einzberen's family, so he had no way to rush in to pick him up, not because he abandoned her biological daughter.
This made her original goal meaningless, and she was still jealous of Emiya Shirou, but the hatred had almost dissipated.
In this case, she didn't know how to get along with Emiya Shirou, although she was actually his sister, but during this time he seemed to be taking care of herself more as a sister.
Even if he never gave him a good face, he didn't get angry - what a good-tempered person.
"It's so troublesome~"
He wasn't afraid of what Illya wanted to be too weird, and he wasn't afraid of what Illya wanted to do strange things, just afraid that she was like now, with no goal at all, and didn't know where to go, the whole person was like a living walking corpse, and he didn't feel like a big deal if he suddenly died tomorrow.
"Find something fun to do. β
"What's the matter?"
"For example, if you study magic or something, isn't your talent very good? β
"Huh?"
Illya's expression finally changed significantly, not in pure surprise, but in a look of 'what the hell are you kidding?' and a very obvious dislike.
"Magical girl, why do you think I would want to be that kind of thing?"
"Forehead ......"
Ethan scratched his cheek, he can't say that Illya in the parallel world has become a magical girl, right? Although she was pitted by a trick with a cunning wand, it is a fact that she became a magical girl after all, and she did a good job later.
Illya stared at Ethan with suspicion.
"Could it be that I became a magical girl in a parallel world?"
Ethan didn't answer, but an embarrassed but not rude smile made Illya realize the answer.
"What the hell is that...... What a strange world it is. β
She really couldn't imagine what it would be like to be a magical girl - even if she was still very young in appearance, but her mental age was there, and she would only be ashamed of being a magical girl or something.
"The world...... Kiritsugu chooses his family after learning the truth about the Holy Grail War...... So he ruined the Holy Grail War, took out the Einzberen family, saved your mother, and made you grow up like a normal child...... It's just that something strange happened that set that you on an extraordinary path. β
"Really?"
When Illya heard all that Kiritsugu did in the other world, she thought of the theory of parallel worlds that Ethan mentioned earlier: every choice may create a parallel world, and Kiritsugu in his own world may choose to complete his mission?
As if guessing what she was thinking, Ethan reached out again and stroked Illya's hair, now he couldn't touch the top of Illya's head as easily as he used to, so he needed to adjust his posture to do it: he got up slightly halfway, and his upper body leaned out to touch Illya's hair.
In this world, Kiritsugu also chose his family, but he knew the truth a little late. It was because he chose to destroy the Holy Grail that he was treated as a traitor by the Einzberen family, and he was not allowed to enter the Einzberen family's territory again. β
Seeing Illya smile, Ethan sat back down, and the room became quiet until Diana suddenly broke the silence.
"Since there is nothing to do, just like those heroic spirits, wouldn't it be nice to experience the life of ordinary people?"
Ethan found that this was really a good idea, since she and Kiritsugu separated, Illya had not experienced any normal life, maybe living an ordinary daily life would allow her to understand what she really wanted?
"The life of ordinary people?"
"Consider what you look like now...... Maybe going to school is a good option. β
I don't expect Illya to make any friends, mainly to help her correct some wrong three views - Illya's three views are completely different from ordinary people, which makes her often do things that ordinary people find unacceptable.
"I have already mastered the knowledge taught in school, what do I learn in school?"
Ethan wasn't afraid of Illya saying that at all, because he had already thought of the right school.
"You can learn magic!"
