"—!"
Ergo held his breath.
The other party said it very clearly, and he saw that there was something else hidden in his body. It was the three pillars of the gods that he had eaten.
Doudori Genma: "How is the line of sight? It's not a dual personality or something like that? It's fundamentally different, and there are not just one, but multiple. It's really admirable that you can keep these things in your body."
El-Melloi II: "You can tell by just observing?"
"If you can't even see this, you can't call yourself a noodle maker. Besides yourself, there are three others, right?"
Ergo: "So, what are their faces?"
"How should I put it? I can only see that one of them is a monkey and is observing this place. I think you should know its true god, right? As for the remaining two, I can't see clearly. Young man, I am very curious, what is the relationship between those beings and you." Dou Diao Yuanma asked.
After a moment of silence, Ergo began to tell his story. As a person with amnesia, he was found by Rin Toosaka while floating on the sea. Because of his god-eating behavior, he longed for the "flesh and blood of gods", and the person who met this condition was his friend Gray. The inner entanglement cannot be expressed in words.
Then he met and fought with Bai Ruolong. Ergo was not afraid of losing. What he was afraid of was that Bai Ruolong was walking ahead of him. Both of them were god-eaters and were in similar situations, so he could feel that Bai Ruolong's "purity" was higher than his. The gap was so obvious that he was no match for him.
An unprecedented regret surged in my heart.
"Do you also have a face that you want to change? As the saying goes, appearance is determined by the heart..." Doudori Genma looked at Ergo for a while, and then looked at the Second: "You are really an amazing magician."
"If you mean this status, it can only be called a coincidence."
"That's not the case. The essence of the mask I made is nowhere to be found. Even those people in the Night Robbery family don't know the true fragrance. But you, who have never met me, understand the master, right?"
Matou Shinji raised his hand: "Well, can't I just guess it?"
"With your little bit of unorthodox skills, I can't tell." Dou Diao Yuanma waved his hand to deny.
The only one who could see through this was the monarch from the Clock Tower.
"I just imagined that it might be possible."
Riddle, Ergo's mind was full of doubts. Not to mention him, even Matou Shinji felt particularly confused. What were they talking about?
"Ergo, huh?"
"Yes!"
"I can't make a mask for you. But, there is a ready-made mask at home. Please wait for a moment."
Dou Diao Yuanma stood up and disappeared into the inner room. After a few minutes, he took out a wooden box and tied it tightly with purple rope. When he opened the box in front of everyone, he revealed a very plain mask that had not been touched in any way.
He looked at Ergo and said, "I think this is the most suitable mask for you."
God is something that is difficult to define, and God is something that is beyond human understanding. So why should we define God with our current perspective? We cannot use "blank space" to accommodate God.
Chapter 610 The Ceremony is about to begin
"So this is the situation of the Yejie family? Shinji, you have hidden a lot of things from me."
Walking out of the mountain cabin and onto the relatively open plain, El-Melloi II walked onto the narrow path in the forest. He asked Matou Shinji who was walking beside him.
The narrow path seemed crowded with two people walking side by side, but El-Melloi II and Matou Shinji didn't care.
I learned a lot from Dou Diao Yuan Ma.
Most of them are stories about the Yajie family, or rather, stories about Yajie Akira's family.
"Hide it? I have told you, professor, about the fact that Touma Genma is Uncle Yajie Akira." Shinji Matou said.
Doudori Genma's original name was Yejie Genma. He was the current head of the Yejie family and the eldest son of Yejie Zhuyin. Originally, he should have been the heir to the Yejie family.
"But you never said that the person that Yazhe Akira was engaged to was Touma Genma."
The niece's marriage partner is her own uncle. This seems strange, at least from a modern perspective, this is a marriage that is not permitted by law. But for the magic family, this is a means to ensure "pure blood".
Yes, pure blood. This does not represent a certain kind of power, but just the so-called "purity of blood", which should have been eliminated. But the so-called magic is to dig out the existence of power from ancient history, so the ancient tradition is still passed down in the family.
El-Melloi II paused, then added, "Of course, this kind of thing is not important. What's important is the matter about Ye Jie Xue Xin."
Yejie Xuexin is the second son of Yejie Zhuyin and the younger brother of Doudiao Yuanma. According to the hierarchy of seniority, Doudiao Yuanma should have inherited the Yejie family, but as the second son, he snatched the inheritance rights that belonged to his brother.
Of course, maybe this is a good thing for Dou Diao Yuan Ma.
"The story of Ye Jie Xue Xin... He is truly an extraordinary guy. He can fly in the sky at the age of six. Isn't this rare in the Clock Tower?"
Six years old, flying. When Shinji Matou first heard the news, he was filled with jealousy.
When I was six years old, I had not yet embarked on the path of magic. The gap between genius and mediocrity is so huge.
El-Melloi II remained silent. Even in the Clock Tower, Ye Jie Xue Xin's performance was a terrifying talent. Flying was something that only the highest-ranking "color-rank" magicians could do stably.
The Second spoke up: "So, you're jealous, huh? Shinji?"
"Professor, you should understand how I feel."
"of course."
Among the twelve monarchs of the Clock Tower, I am probably the only one who can understand Matou Shinji. Most monarchs are very talented, otherwise they cannot become monarchs, and I am just a monarch who relies on teaching students to reach the "priesthood".
As for Matou Shinji, in the general perception of the Clock Tower, Matou Sakura's brother is not a person of the magic path. But after spending these days together, they know that he has already set foot on the magic path.
Taking the path of magic without relying on the magic circuits in one's body. This is an extremely rare example in both the East and the West. In the Clock Tower, it is a heresy among heresies.
The jealousy that a talentless person feels towards a talented person will only burn more fiercely in Shinji Matou's heart.
"You managed to control yourself, didn't you, Matou Shinji? And what I want to ask is about Akira Yazawa's mother." After a pause, El-Melloi II said, "Yazawa Yukinoshi's wife is an ordinary person who knows nothing about magic, so after Akira Yazawa rejected the remains of the body, he divorced his wife. It was also after the divorce that Akira Yazawa's extraordinary talent caused supernatural phenomena. Her mother didn't know what happened, so she asked an exorcist to solve the problem. The exorcist was undoubtedly a liar, and you appeared at the necessary moment."
After a pause, the Second came to the conclusion: "Shinji, you have been paying attention to the mother and daughter of Ye Jie for a long time, right?"
Matou Shinji said: "Yes, I have been paying attention to them for a long time."
Was it a coincidence or a planned event that he was able to save that ignorant exorcist? Even now, Matou Shinji couldn't tell. He even forgot how he used the "Eye of God" to suppress Akira Yazhe after he arrived at the scene.
"Where is Yazhe Akira's mother?"
"I sent her to a mental hospital. When I went there, the exorcist was already on the verge of death. She was traumatized, and when the Night Robbers snatched the child from her, the trauma was even greater."
Matou Shinji's voice stopped here and he did not continue speaking.
The result is clear without further explanation.
Ergo followed the two silently, listening to their conversation. He knew the whole story, but he didn't say anything. His mind had already flown far away, and Bai Ruolong's figure had been lingering in his mind.
Soon, they arrived near the car. El-Melloi II asked, "Shinji, it's been a while since Akira returned to the Yazhe family."
"Yes."
"You, just started taking action recently, right?"
"Yes."
Second generation, understood everything.
……
……
Toosaka Rin and Gray are having lunch now. After separating from the Second, they did not go to the Night Robbery house immediately, but found a restaurant to fill their stomachs. This is much better than the monarch and the others taking their lunch boxes with them.
Originally, Liang Yi's family leader should have prepared for Gan Ye who was busy with the investigation. However, because Mr. Liang Yi changed his position for various reasons, the family leader of Liang Yi's family did not come.
"I didn't expect so much to happen during my time away from Tokyo. Bai Ruolong... This name is an oriental name, and he should be from the same country as Li Mo." Toosaka Rin said. Most of the tempura rice in front of him was eaten, which showed that it tasted really good.
Gray: "Yes, yes. Ms. Toosaka, how was your experience in Fuyuki City?"
"Fuyuki City? Forget it. What will happen there? After we go back, we are just puppets. Everything will follow Li Mo's arrangement. Gray, you will understand when you work with him. He always arranges things clearly."
"Isn't this bad?"
"Doesn't this mean we have no room to maneuver?" Toosaka Rin said.
Every time I'm with Li Mo, I feel frustrated.
Toosaka Rin: "Come to think of it, Li Mo is also involved in this matter. I really don't know what he is going to do."
"I have already completed what I was going to do. But after thinking about it, I have a new goal, so I have to continue to get involved."
A male voice appeared between the two of them.
Gray looked like a kid caught surfing the Internet by his teacher, with a surprised expression on her face: "Mr. Li, Mr. Li Mo."
"Don't worry, Gray. Li Mo won't care about verbal offense."
"Yeah, yeah. I really don't care about that. By the way, I suggest you finish your tempura rice bowl in the remaining few minutes." Li Mo paused and said, "We have to hurry on our way."
"why?"
"It's very simple. The ceremony is about to begin."
Li Mo looked outside the store and said, "If they go there, Bai Ruolong and Ye Jie Yajiliang might be dead."
Chapter 611: No One
Bai Ruolong, Ye Jie Akira. For Tousaka Rin, these are two names that exist in words, and she has never seen the corresponding people. Like in the original story track, the prepared gem fragments can be used to determine the situation of the two people.
So, Li Mo showed up.
He walked in front, and Gray, who was dressed in casual clothes and a hood, walked behind them. Of course, after leaving the restaurant, the person who sat in the driver's seat was still Toosaka Rin.
"Because I don't have a driver's license."
When Toosaka Rin asked why Mr. Li didn't drive, she got this answer.
Yes, Mr. Li does not have a driver's license. This is a very sad thing. The last time he had a valid driver's license was in his previous life. As for this life, he has never driven a car. When he can run faster than a car, does he still need a car?
"Then why are you walking in front, Li Mo?"
"Doesn't this show my leadership status?" Li Mo said with a smile.
Toosaka Rin rolled her eyes. She no longer cared about what Li said. She asked Gray to sit in the front passenger seat and let Li Mo sit alone in the back seat. If Gray and Li Mo sat together, I don't know how my child would be tortured.
A dog can't spit out ivory. After knowing that Gray and Altria used the same face, Toosaka Rin knew that Li Mo must have many interesting ideas hidden in his mind. He was a guy who liked to have fun. Even if you knew that this guy would not cause you any substantial harm, the mental embarrassment was no less.
"Where are we going next."
"Of course it's Yejie's house. Where else can we go?" Li Mo said, "By the way, Lin, Gray. I won't help you deal with the people of Yejie's family."
"? Li Mo, do you mean that you want us to fight the entire Yejie family alone?"
"It's not the entire Yejie family. Some of them have to preside over the ceremony. So we are only facing a small group of small fry. The most troublesome person should be Yejie Xuexin. Come on."
