"...Of course, the contract is still continuing."

The guard boy took off his guard, relaxed his body and replied:

“[Original Nine], this is the name passed down from the first generation to the original members of the Ark who invited us to the [Macro Realm Ark]——

Your Excellency Altair, Your Excellency Meteora Estrexi, Your Excellency Serekia Upitilia, Your Excellency Alistria Fibrari, Your Excellency Momika Kouki, Mikoto Misaka

Your Excellency, Your Excellency Daiya, Your Excellency Blitz Tokar, Your Excellency Suzaku Shumu.

The above nine people are the [original nine people]."

"That's it, I remember it."

And I also understood what the sense of dissonance was when I saw the [Original Ten People] appearing under my name:

"It turns out you are not playing the joke of [there are five of the Four Heavenly Kings]."

"No... Mr. So-and-so, you don't sound like a newcomer who has just arrived at [Hongjie Ark]."

"Well, that's it. Half of the duration of [Guide Mission] has passed, so let's pause the mission first. When we meet again next time, let's go to the food court together."

Xingke ignored the guard brother's doubts and turned around to open a portal. Opposite was the entrance to a certain courtyard in the Imperial Palace.

"Is that so? Of course. Bon voyage, Mr. So-and-so."

"Oh, goodbye, little brother Zhan Shen."

The moment he crossed the portal, the portal disappeared. Xing Ke stepped directly in, relying on his memory to find the path and walking in the courtyard that he once used as a temporary stronghold.

This villa is where Xingke and Illya live, not far from the meeting hall where everyone usually gathers.

"Twenty years have passed, but there is still a wonderful sense of life here."

"Humph!—Isn't that of course? I still live here! Do you think I have to move after you leave?"

An obviously resentful but very familiar voice came from behind Xing Ke. Hearing this, Xing Ke felt happy, and then turned around and said hello:

"Hey!~ Ilia, I'm back. Have you grown up a lot?"

Yes, what Xingji saw after turning around was not a little loli with silver hair and red eyes, but a dignified and beautiful girl with silver hair and red eyes.

Wearing a purple shirt, a white short skirt, and a slim-fitting windbreaker, this image instantly refreshed Xingke. He thought of it a lot, and was stunned for a moment.

"What's wrong? I look stupid. Could it be that after seeing the state of my growth, I feel disappointed that my perverted desires are not satisfied? I saw that the child I had been paying attention to since childhood grew up and lost interest day by day, and then

There is a beginning and an end..."

"No, no, no, Illya, what are you talking about? This is a huge misunderstanding in the universe. I am not a lolicon."

Hearing Illya getting more and more angry as she spoke, Xingji quickly clarified his innocence.

"Then you didn't abandon your agreement with me for Xiaoxue, the new silver-haired lolita you were targeting. Not only did you go through life and death for her, but you actually died for her in the end, completely forgetting about the grown-up me.

In the end, you only left a suicide note, and you said you were not a lolicon!~"

"No, I was just shocked by your beauty, Ilya! -"

At this time, it is important to save your life.

"Oh...is that so? That's really...thank you."

Blushing, Illya unconsciously picked up a strand and played with it in her hand, but then she asked again:

"Did you really just think that? Didn't you think of anything else?"

"Um...this..."

Xingke hesitated for a moment, hesitating whether to tell the truth.

"Huh, it's true. How can a person like you, who has never seen any kind of beauty, be stunned because of me? And your interests and defense range..."

"Stop, stop, stop, please allow me to tell the truth, please allow me to tell the truth about what I was stunned by just now! Please!"

"...Okay. Giese-san, please speak."

After getting permission, Xingke sighed and sat on the corridor under the eaves, with Illya standing next to him.

"Ilia-san, I think you have also read the "Shaping Moon Series", right? After all, the entire multiverse and many worlds have information projections from the "Shaping Moon World".

"Of course, thanks to this, I have very clearly understood the reason why you always asked me some incomprehensible questions before! I just didn't know that you..."

"I do mean to ridicule you maliciously, please forgive me! And the reason why I was stunned just now is because in Xingyue's works, all of your parallel clones, Illya, have a physique that does not grow big, so your current girlish figure,

More like..."

"【Mrs】?"

"Please don't use this malicious nickname, it's very rude to my wife..."

"But, even if the world lines are completely different, [Irisviel] is still my mother's name, right? Calling my mother by her first name always makes me feel wrong. And as my daughter grows older, she will become more and more like her mother. Isn't it natural?

Is that so? You are so confused over such a trivial matter. Could it be that you..."

Illya cast a suspicious look.

"Hey, Illya, please forgive me. When I first came into contact with Xingyue, I was still young and frivolous. I definitely did not show any disrespect to Madam. I only called her Madam twice at most."

"Huh, whatever happens is fine...

Anyway, my name is [Illyasviel Einzbern], and my mother’s name is [Illyasviel Einzbern]. Our family has long severed ties with the original family in Germany and fled to

The British have taken refuge, not even the descendants of nobles. So, our world is actually far different from the Xingyue original code, right?"

"By the way, let me ask you your father's name..."

"[Kelly Einzbern] Yo!~" Illya said with a playful smile.

"Pfft--did Mr. Kiritsugu in our world turn out to be a son-in-law? He was really dedicated to his wife..."

"Yes! Dad really loves mom. The two of them spend almost all day together showing off their affection. My isolated lightbulb daughter has been completely fed by the loving candies they scatter everywhere, and her eyes are filled with tears.

I'm so blind..."

As she spoke, Illya's smile became a little lonely:

"Thanks to them, I spent most of my time alone with two dull maids who didn't talk much. Their names were also Liz and Sera, but they were not as good as the androids in [Xingyue Original Book].

As for technology... maybe it’s just because of this that I’ve developed a character that I can’t stop talking at all, right?

Originally, when I left home and boarded the train to Hohenheim, I thought I could finally go to school and finally talk freely with my classmates.
