“…… Everyone is welcome to stay at our temple. Mrs. Tosaka, it's been a long time, but the last time you saw you was at a parent meeting, right? ”

"Yes, Lady Yanagidong, it's been a long time. We've been bothering at your temple for the past few days, and it's not respectful to be careful......"

Near noon, Ji Feng and Joan of Arc and others, who were about to live for a week, finally came to Liudong Temple, which was about to live for a week. The polite affair with the presiding family of Yanagito Temple fell on Mrs. Aoi Tosaka, while the others were taken directly by Yanagito Issei to Soichiro-sensei Katsugi.

As a matter of courtesy, Mrs. Tosaka will also come to visit Mr. Katsuki, who lives here, because he is not only a teacher at her daughter's school, but also her daughter's homeroom teacher, and Mrs. Tosaka has met with her many times.

However, after saying hello, Mrs. Tosaka will no longer be involved in the affairs of the "MASTERS", she will be an ordinary guest here, and if there is any danger, she will hide in the side hall of the temple reinforced by Caster with the Yanato couple and the temple people, so that the MASTERS gathered in the Yanato Temple will not have to protect them additionally.

“…… Because of what you did last night, we really don't need to go to school anymore during the Holy Grail War. It is said that the school will coordinate with other schools in the city as soon as possible, and strive to disperse the students and teachers of the entire Suizunyuan School Park to other schools next week.

So what do we do now? Just waiting? ”

In the room where Soichiro Katsugi was staying, Yanagito Issei looked at Rin Tosaka and Ji Feng and others who were leisurely drinking tea and playing chess, reading books and eating snacks, and they wanted to take out all these guys who were lazy and disturbed the quiet place of Buddhism, but Ji Feng, who was the "wise man" of the team, did not have the slightest self-consciousness, and nodded very naturally and replied:

"The best-case scenario is that we stay here until the end of the Holy Grail War.

Opening the hole to the 'Root' requires the passage of the dead Servant soul to return to the 'Throne of the Immortal' located on the outer side of the world, and the more dead Servants, the stronger the power of the return to the Throne of the Immortal, the wider the passage, and the less mana is required to fix the passage.

But at least the bare words. As long as there is a Servant soul, you can get the path and exit coordinates from the present world to the outer world, but the mana cost of the fixed passage is greatly increased.

Now that the Holy Grail has contained the soul of the Rider, and our 'hand' has been gathered, we can rest the brakes and wait for work in the magic position we have built.

And we have super spies out there who will never be detected if they don't attack anyone, and she'll call us if there's any big news about Lancer or Jack the Ripper - thankfully you're still on the phone. ”

"I'm really sorry that our temple is so simple!"

Seeing Ji Feng spread out his hands and expressed helplessness at the antiquity and obsolescence of Liudong Temple, Liudong Temple unceremoniously retorted to him, and then asked very suspiciously:

"You keep talking about roots...... I know that the root is what all magicians want to reach, the 'Seat of God that exists outside the world, the beginning and end of all things, the record of everything in this world, and the seat of God that makes everything in this world', but with all due respect. I fail to see the need to get to the roots.

Even if the root is 'outside' the world, but literally, it is probably just a recorder and a production machine, right?

What if the magician gets there? Do they just want to see what the world looks like 'out there', or do they want to read the records of history, or do they want to use God's Seat to do something beyond imagination? ”

This is probably the same as the lifelong desire of a scientist to pursue the truth.

But the scientists of this world are really sad, obviously magic and magic exist in the world, but they are artificially covered up, without this important piece of the puzzle, no matter how hard they try, they can't piece together the whole picture of the truth.

This behavior is actually like the ancient priesthood monopolizing religious rituals. The aristocratic family's monopoly of knowledge is the same as the suppression of ordinary people - after all, there has never been a shortage of geniuses in this world, and if magic knowledge is opened to everyone on the earth to study and study, now these magic masters can only think about how to win over or suppress grassroots magicians. ”

Because Yanagito Kazunari is a very superficial problem. Ji Feng casually said something that seemed to be a very profound answer, which made his MASTER Rin Tosaka show a rather strange expression.

She knew that this strange guy would always say something that didn't look like an "ancient man", but it was science and a monopoly or something...... Was he really a Servant summoned by the Holy Grail?

"Science is science, magic is magic. Scientists are not the same as the truth and magic they seek! And there are only five magic left in modern times, and the rest can only be called magic.

And magicians and magic families will also accept ordinary people as apprentices, but there are not many people with magic circuits.

In addition, the accumulation of magic marks is the most important thing in the inheritance of the magician family. Of course, the magic mark can only be passed on to the best of the many inheritors, but all the children who are chosen as inheritors are forced to undergo rigorous training from an early age.

Since the mental and physical forces required to exercise magic are detached from common sense, the corresponding training can be said to be extremely cruel, and even inhumane methods such as brainwashing and physical transformation are not uncommon, so don't think that becoming a magician is a very easy and handsome thing. ”

Should it be said that "the butt decides the head", as the head of the famous magic family Tosaka, Rin Tosaka couldn't help but refute Ji Feng a few words at this time, but Ji Feng shook his head quite disapprethoughtly and said:

"There's no magic in this world, it's just science. In other words, science is nothing more than the correct method of studying the truth, and the pursuit of science is the pursuit of this method, and its purpose is to study the truth of the world with the help of this correct method.

Since magic exists, its existence is reasonable, it is an important part of truth, and it is also an important object of scientific research, and it should be studied using scientific methods.

But the later and deeper the research, what is needed is no longer the flash of inspiration of one or two geniuses, but the accumulation of countless researchers. The reason why magic has declined and only magic is left is because there is too little magic researcher.

Choosing three or five qualified 'outsiders' as apprentices in the crowd based on mood and luck is nothing more than an effort by the monopolist to slow down the speed of its own decay, and it will not hinder the general trend.

As for the cruelty of magical practice...... There are always people in this world who can endure any hardship in order to improve, so you don't have to worry about opening up your magic cultivation knowledge but no one is practicing it. (To be continued.) )
