Li Mo also found out that, as usual, Rin Tousaka joined the El-Melloi classroom, and Shirou Emiya and Sakura Matou also joined the El-Melloi classroom. Sakura Matou's "imaginary number" attribute was not targeted by the Clock Tower. After all, she was still a disciple of the monarch. Secondly, Fuyuki City had some relationship with the Law and Politics Department.
Besides, if the Clock Tower really wants to seal it, then we have to consider whether we can defeat it. Acher and Rider followed the two of them, even though the Greater Holy Grail was dismantled. But Medea still managed to keep all the servants, but she couldn't summon new servants. If the Clock Tower can't be taken, it means there will be another Aozaki Touko.
Lancer chose to travel around the world, and Hanasari had seen photos of him fishing in many different places.
In the second half of the journey, Hua Sanli was explaining and Li Mo was listening. She talked about the current situation of the boys and girls.
Li Mo: "What about Illya?"
"I have been playing games at home for the past three years." After a pause, Hua Sanli said.
"Doesn't this make me a stay-at-home girl?"
I had just seen another Illya in the Nordic Lostbelt a while ago. Now that Illya in this world line was being slacking off under my influence, I suddenly felt proud. Thinking of Illya's ending in the three routes of FSN, my pride rose by another three points.
I am proud of turning an unhappy ending into a happy one. Oh, I feel a little sorry for Cu Chulainn. But when I think about the fact that in some scenes, Dog Brother was the one who was persecuted, I don't feel guilty about it anymore.
"It's July and August now. Won't Toosaka Rin and the others come back?" As they chatted, Li Mo turned the topic back to Toosaka Rin.
The reason why I pay so much attention to Rin Toosaka is that in the original storyline, Rin will become a disciple of El-Melloi II. At the same time, Rin also appears in other studios. For example, she appears in the FSF studio.
Hanasari: "She is in Singapore now, right? She seems to be salvaging Zheng He's sunken ship."
"Hmm? Salvaging a sunken ship?"
"Yes." Hanasari said, "Li Mo, you also know that Rin's expenses on magic are huge. She is the first one to use up the annual dividends. She can't save money, so the only way is to increase income and reduce expenditure."
Li Mo: "She wasted her research time to salvage the sunken ship in Singapore, which is a way of saving money."
Toosaka Rin took time out from her research to do other things, which is saving money. Toosaka Rin's magic research requires a lot of expenses, and if she doesn't do much research, won't the expenses go down? Isn't this saving money? And the dividends that Hanasari mentioned, she happened to explain before, are dividends from Matou Shinji.
That guy has a bad personality and a clogged magic circuit, but he does have a good brain. When Li Mo talked about what the future would be like, he dove right in. He has achieved great results in recent years, and he is completely a time traveler. His starting capital was provided by everyone. Under the persuasion of Matou Sakura, Toosaka Rin also invested a sum of money, and then received a dividend every year.
Soon, they arrived at the Emiya family. Hanasari finished her conversation with Li Mo and went up to knock on the door.
"Sera, we're back."
Chapter 568 Gathering
We does not refer to one person, but a group of people.
When Sera saw herself appear, she was stunned for a moment and asked tentatively: "Mr. Li Mo, you are back?"
"Yes, Sera, I'm back. So can you take us in? It's not good to block the door like this, right?"
Sera: "Excuse me. Mr. Li Mo, please come in. You haven't been back for three years, right?"
Li Mo stepped across the gate and responded with a smile: "Is Sierra going to blame me?"
"How could that be? It's just that the eldest lady kept whispering about your whereabouts, and I don't know where you went." Sera took the things from Li Mo and Hua Sanli respectively.
She said, "Leave the rest to me. I can make a great meal. Mr. Li Mo, how about you go meet Miss Illya first?"
"Okay." Li Mo nodded. "Hua Sanli, come with me."
All the ingredients were handed over to Sera, and the maid in her home clothes walked in front to lead the way. She started talking about Illya's recent situation. Just like what Hanasari said, Illya is now addicted to games. Magic? What is that? Can it be eaten?
The Einzbern family is likely to be destroyed by Illya.
Li Mo: "Can I take it that you are complaining, Sera?"
I thought Sera would reject this argument like she did just now, but unexpectedly, Sera nodded and said "yes".
Now Li Mo became interested and asked why.
"Just compare them and you'll know. Miss Tousaka, Miss Matou, and Master Shirou all went to study at the Clock Tower. Even Master Matou is attending university in Tokyo. Only the eldest lady is the oldest and does nothing at home. In Japanese terms, she's living off her parents."
Sera's straightforward and accurate description made Li Mo look sideways. He looked at Hua Sanli, as if asking her, is Sera always so bold?
Hanasari said: "If Illya heard this, she would probably say something like 'My elders are gone, so why are you just living off them?'"
One sentence was enough to refresh Li Mo's understanding of Illya.
What about integrity?
But on second thought, Li Mo complained: "This is still called being dependent on parents. Illya's current expenses are all from the inheritance of the Einzbern family, right? Isn't this called being dependent on parents?"
The money spent is the money that the elders had saved. To some extent, Illya's life of parasites is indeed a life of relying on her parents.
The three of them gradually approached the mansion, and the exchange student also attracted the people inside. The entrance was opened, and Illya, wearing a short plain nightgown, stood there yawning: "Sera, who are you talking to... Hey? Li Mo?"
Her sleepy eyes seemed to catch a glimpse of a familiar figure, and Illya's voice suddenly rose several tones.
Li Mo waved his hand: "Long time no see, Illya."
As soon as he greeted her, Illya turned around and ran to the depth of the entrance, leaving Li Mo confused and looking at Hua Sanli.
The former witch took out a pair of indoor shoes from the bottom layer of the shoe cabinet in the entrance hall and handed them to Li Mo: "You will know what happened when you go in."
Li Mo looked down and saw that they were the shoes he had worn three years ago. "You guys still kept these shoes. Actually, I don't mind using new shoes."
“We have new shoes here, too.”
"Then it's better to use the old one."
If old things are still usable, you should definitely continue to use them. If you just replace them, wouldn't that be a waste?
Walking into the entrance hall and into the living room, Hanasari helped Sera carry the large and small bags of food into the kitchen. Glancing at the other end of the room, Altria and Lijelite were sitting in front of the TV playing games together, while Illya was next to the phone with the phone hanging on her ear.
Who is she going to call?
Then, Illya hung up the phone. She looked at Li Mo, made a V-sign, and said, "Caster will be coming down from the mountain soon."
"Miss Medea is still on Mount Enzo?"
When Illya mentioned the mountain, it was definitely Mount Enzo. When I was chatting with Hanasari, she deliberately avoided the location where Medea was. Was she actually up there?
why?
"Because Miss Medea wants to study magic. Now the servants can only survive by relying on the magic pool. In order to protect it from being destroyed, she simply put the magic workshop there. It is where the Holy Grail was before." Illya said.
Li Mo: "Is Illya so active in communicating with Medea? Why is she so active?"
"Hmm..." Illya smiled awkwardly.
"Let me answer this question." Altria's voice came over.
Looking over there, you can clearly see the big letters "KO" appearing on the TV screen. It is obvious that Altria was defeated, so she had time to interrupt.
The Knight King stood up from his kneeling position and said, "Medea hand-sewn a batch of clothes for me some time ago. Miss Illya saw it..."
"Don't say it." Illya stepped forward and ran in front of Altria, trying to stop her from speaking.
However, Li Mo knew what Altria was going to say next as soon as he thought about it.
Just because he thought of it, he showed a strange expression and said, "Illya also wants a special dress? But there are so many clothing stores out there, can't you just order it directly?"
Altria was bullying Illya because of the height difference. She was older than Shirou Emiya, but the petite white-haired loli could only try to jump up and stop her from speaking. But as the Knight King, couldn't he bully a magician like Illya?
She said, "Because Medea made a magic dress."
"When did you become so rich... Oh, I remember. The magic crystal business hasn't stopped yet."
For the magicians of the Age of Gods, extracting magic power is a very easy thing. At least it is very easy for Medea. Her previous Master, the oil king of the Middle East, wanted to destroy Caster because he was jealous of the magic crystals that Medea easily extracted, which were larger than the magic crystals he used to extract the life force of his children. And in the process, Li Mo chopped off his head with a knife.
Therefore, the magic crystal business is a no-cost business. With the channels of the Law and Politics Department, it will not be a problem to continue for three years.
Soon, Caster and Medea appeared in the room.
"Master, it's been a long time!" As soon as she came up, Medea gave Li Mo a big hug.
"Well, long time no see. I came back late, of course this was an accident!" Li Mo dared to guarantee that this was indeed an accident. "It shouldn't be like this next time."
Considering the experience in the world of Demon Slayer, Li Mo felt that the next time he returned to Fuyuki City, the interval would not be so long.
After a pause, thinking about the main purpose of his return, Li Mo said: "Medea, I have something to discuss with you."
"If you have anything to say, let's talk about it this afternoon." Hanasari interrupted Li Mo. The witch said, "You can't just throw yourself into work as soon as you come back."
"Okay..." Li Mo said awkwardly.
Chapter 569 If I had known this would happen
Indeed, there is no need to rush.
Li Mo adjusted his mentality and turned into a lazy mode, even dragging Miss Medea to play games together. Although it is still the early twentieth century, there is no shortage of good games in every era in Japan.
——Li Mo probably doesn’t think highly of computer games in this era. But he can still enjoy games on consoles, especially Nintendo.
After going through so many worlds, Li Mo also discovered some patterns. For example, almost all modern Japanese have Nintendo. This game company is like a culture, firmly fixed on Japan.
Well, for me, it's a good thing rather than a bad thing.
It turns out that when a person plays a game, he or she will have extremely high requirements for the quality of the game. But when a group of people play a game, the requirements for the game do not seem to be that high. Because the best game is played with friends. And this is exactly the most luxurious.
"Suddenly, I became obsessed with playing with things."
The time after lunch was wasted on games. It was dusk when Li Mo finally stopped playing. He lay on the tatami, looking extremely decadent.
Medea also took off her cloak and changed into home clothes that were cooler and more convenient to move in.
Medea, who no longer has her beauty sealed by a cloak, is very beautiful, and most of her servants are handsome men and beautiful women - of course, Smoke Mirror may be an exception.
She heard Li Mo sigh and said, "Master, you are the happiest one too."
"Yes, yes, Miss Medea is right. It was you, Li Mo, who started the trouble." Illya added. Like Li Mo, she was also lying on the tatami. In the name of reducing energy consumption before dinner.
Li Mo: "Just sighing, probably the same as what I will do tomorrow."
"Nonsense... Master, you came back for something important this time, right?" Medea said.
She was sitting at the long table and could see that except for herself and Altria, Li Mo, Illya and Lijelle were all lying down. If Sera saw this, she would probably scold Lijelle loudly.
Obviously, Lijelite and Sera are both androids, and both are maids. But there is such a clear gap between the two... It's obvious that they all solved the problems themselves!
The androids created by the Einzbern family were obviously used as tools. There is no need to consider the service life of tools. If they are worn out, they will break down. Therefore, the lifespans of the two are relatively short, just like Illya. But Medea could save Illya, so could she not save Sera and Lijelite?
"Well, it's business. How should I put it? I accidentally went to a Lostbelt. You don't know what a Lostbelt is, do you?"
Li Mo added some information about the setting of the Lostbelt. In short, it is a world abandoned by "human nature" and a world without hope.
But, is it that human nature has abandoned them? Or is it because the changes in that world have caused human nature to be unable to extend its tentacles? Li Mo thinks it is the latter. Of course... Is it okay to regard things that cannot be observed and touched as non-existent?
Speaking of the Lostbelt, I also mentioned the world of FGO. The Earth was turned into a blank sheet of paper, and the entire world was gone in just a few months.
