If it weren't for something important, Ling Yi would probably stay in the room all day. In any case, there is no mandatory requirement for the injured to attend classes, in fact, he has been lying in bed for three or four days in a row.

The reason is complex, but in simple terms, it is the relationship between Gilgamesh and the Holy Grail. The destructive power of the former's treasure bombardment is extremely considerable, and even if it is protected by the Wind King Enchantment, it is still injured after all.

Of course, if it weren't for Karna's decisive and swift action, it might not have been a matter of lying down for a few days.

Thinking of this, Ling Yi could only admit that it was Avalon's credit, without the continuous healing of this scabbard, he would not have been able to recover so quickly. As for Weishenme's argument that he didn't use Avalon to defend against Gilgamesh's attacks, the reason was simple, in order to have spare strength to deal with the Holy Grail.

What's more, he believes that Karna will never miss, the so-called use of people is not suspicious, and without this trust, he will not participate in the Holy Grail War.

Probably no one knows that the Holy Grail has gone completely bad.

From a pure wishing machine to a prop that can destroy Shijie.

If Emiya Kiritsugu knew that the Holy Grail he was after was something like this, his expression would surely be wonderful.

Ling Yi was not surprised by this, he had already known this secret, so he couldn't let anyone else take the Holy Grail. Seeing such a dangerous thing fall into the hands of ambitious and ignorant people, Ling Yi could almost see the destruction of Yujian Dongmu City.

Isn't it a bit of a righteous partner to think about it?

However, it was a pity that Ling Yi did not snatch the Holy Grail for such a noble purpose, and there was only one reason that supported him to Zuihou from beginning to end, and that was to win.

Just as a soldier craves honor, Ling Yi also craves the satisfaction that comes from victory, and he feels that there is nothing more wonderful than defeating his opponent and stepping onto the throne of the victor.

Life is like a game of chess, either win or lose, just ask: who wants to be a loser?

I have to say that Ling Yi now treats the tasks assigned by the system and crossing Shijie as a game, from the reluctance at the beginning to the current interesting challenge.

It's a huge shift, so to speak.

I don't know when it started, but the change in thinking patterns has shifted the trajectory of life.

Whether this is good or bad, even Ling Yi himself doesn't know. Perhaps he was naïve enough to think that he could solve all the problems with a lot of tactical knowledge, but that was doomed to failure.

Tactics are not a panacea, as the professor said to the class in the first class last year.

Ling Yi kept it in his heart.

Then silently added a sentence.

――If you are bound to fail, please give me a chance to fail.

☆

Early in the morning, the fog is white and damp, after which it becomes more smoke-like. The small particles in the air and the soot mix together, making one's breath feel dry and stinging.

This is the state of the environment in nineteenth-century London.

Ling Yi didn't know if anyone in the clock tower remembered him, but he didn't care about that either.

The main purpose of going back this time is to study magic, and he finally came to this shijie, and he didn't want to leave so early.

Of course, it is too inefficient to listen to ordinary lectures like students, after all, the clock tower is a gathering place for aristocrats, and the class differentiation is too obvious, and the status of students is naturally the same, and Kenneth was also mixed into a first-class lecturer in this way

Therefore, if Ling Yi wants to achieve his goal in a short period of time, ordinary learning methods are not good.

Although he is more reluctant to privilege, privilege also has the benefit of privilege.

The chips in Ling Yi's hand were enough for him to become a privileged person.

Of course, he still had to negotiate with the Elumeroi family before throwing that chip.

That's why he's coming to the Clock Tower today, to get in touch with the current head of Elomeroy through the Clock Tower's connections, and then to take over all of Kenneth's intellectual property, whether it's completed or unfinished.

Among other things, Kenneth is an absolute genius.

The magic theory materials, papers, and other things he left behind were very useful to Ling Yi, it could be described as a sleepy pillow, how could he give up such an opportunity.

As for how to convince the person in charge, Ling Yi was not worried at all

He had two chips in his hand.

These two chips were doomed, and even if the Elumeroi family did not accept his terms, the clock tower would open the door for him.

"I've heard the bad news about Kenneth from Sora, but you're obviously more detailed than she is. You probably know what I'm trying to ask, and how do you know that? ”

Clock Tower, Minister's Office of the Spiriting Section.

The magician-style room, although there are magic items displayed everywhere, including the internal organs of unknown creatures, books and antiquities, etc., look a little old, but the room as a whole is very bright and spacious, the floor is covered with a clean red carpet, and the air is filled with an inexplicable aroma, which is emanating from the woman at the desk.

The red-haired woman, who spoke casually and seemed to be in her thirties and forties, looked like a noblewoman, staring faintly at the black-haired boy in front of her.

To be honest, she had a lot of questions in her mind.

For example, the brunette walked into her office without notice and was waiting for her early.

This is not something that the average student does.

In addition, as soon as the dark-haired teenager opened his mouth, she had to hold back her anger and listen carefully to the explosive news.

――Don't you want to know how Kenneth died?

Because of this question, she sat there for three minutes and then asked the first question.

First of all, it is necessary to determine the accuracy of the information, which is the habit of almost every magician.

"Because I was the one who killed him." Ling Yi smiled and replied with a serious gaze, her incomparably calm attitude stunned Sophia, she had never seen such a little ghost who was not afraid of death in her decades of life.

I heard that he seems to be Kenneth's disciple

"Tell me why." Sophia asked with a calm face, Kenneth was her disciple, and she was undoubtedly unhappy to learn that she had been killed, but relatively speaking, she was more curious about why the black-haired boy told the truth.

(Thanks to the two book friends of Anime Fans and Yumeng for their tips.) Uh, it looks like the clock tower has to write a few chapters, you shouldn't mind, right? On the other hand, I will try to be as brief as possible when it comes to reality. Anyway, I have a picture of Kenneth's sister, and I want to raise my hand to see it. ）
