Use FGO to open the second dimension

"Okay, next we should go find that Lancer's Master..."

Koizumi brought the topic back to the topic with a single sentence, but there was clear hesitation on Mashu's face.

"Will it really succeed smoothly... I always feel that he will be a mean and heartless person..."

Ritsuka nodded in agreement with Mashu's words, looking as if she deeply shared the same sentiments.

"That guy gives people the feeling of being cold-blooded and ruthless, at least that's what I feel."

Ritsuka and Mashu's words made Koizumi nod his head. Not only them, but Koizumi also felt the same way.

After all, that guy gave people the feeling of an orthodox magician, and to be frank, magicians are actually cold-blooded and ruthless creatures who don't care about anything except the root cause.

For a magician, reaching the source is the ultimate goal, and this goal must be achieved no matter what.

However, Koizumi had heard Yakumo Yukari mention the origin, after all, she was a youkai connected to the root.

It would be strange if Koizumi wasn't curious about her attitude towards the goals that everyone else dreams of.

However, Koizumi was surprised by Yakumo Yukari's attitude.

"It's ridiculous that someone would pursue something as frivolous as the Origin, especially a magus. They're actually trying to reach for so-called omniscience and omnipotence, to reach the realm of God in a human form. This is beyond arrogance... Like a moth to a flame, it's nothing more than self-destruction."

According to Zi, the root is the origin of the world, the cause of everything, the source of all phenomena. Since any cause can produce an effect, this is the ultimate knowledge in terms of existence. However, even this ultimate knowledge is still limited, so this statement is merely for ease of understanding.

Simply put, the root is nothingness, and everything is contained in it.

If one thinks about reaching this level, the result will be that one will be assimilated into the root and disappear from the world.

Even the only five remaining magics in the world are just the result of magicians going back to the source, that is, the existence of some laws of the world, which is already the peak level of this world.

"Leave it to me. However, I hope you will leave the conversation with Sir Kenneth to me. I will still connect my magic with you, and you can whisper messages to me, but you must not speak. Do you understand?"

Koizumi rolled his eyes. "I don't want to talk to or get along with a magus like that."

Ritsuka nodded silently. She also felt that it was very troublesome to get along with this kind of magician.

Ritsuka himself cannot be considered a proper magician, and is treated as a country bumpkin in Chaldea.

However, it is precisely because of such people that they can become seniors that Mashu trusts very much.

Afterwards, under the leadership of El-Melloi II, Koizumi and the others slowly arrived at where Kenneth was.

However, upon entering, Koizumi and the others were somewhat surprised to see Diarmuid looking at them warily.

It was as if he and the others had deceived each other or something...

However, Koizumi soon realized the problem, because - it seemed that he had indeed deceived the other party.

One thing you have to know is that El-Melloi II was summoned, so that Lanis... was probably really fooling the other party. After all, even if it was a heroic spirit from later generations, it was summoned, which is no different from an intruder to some extent.

In this case, where is the interpersonal communication network!

"The servants on the opposite side seem to be ready for a fight!" Dr. Roman had obviously noticed this problem as well, and his eyes quickly turned to Koizumi and the others, revealing this thought.

"The atmosphere is so depressing... Mr. Nishi, how exactly are you going to convince them..."

Mashu also had a solemn look on her face, feeling very heavy in her heart.

"I asked the Achizolti family yesterday. You actually borrowed Lenise's name. How dare you say such unsubstantiated words?" Kenneth looked at Koizumi and the others with a sneer on his face, a hint of vigilance in his eyes.

"But you agreed to meet with us, which means..."

"I have something else I want to ask you. It's about what you said yesterday about Caster."

Kenneth said calmly, not trying to hide his doubts.

"Why did you know the movements of the Holy Church in advance?"

"Because to me it's something that has already happened...a memory from the distant past."

As he said this, El-Melloi II slowly closed his eyes.

Koizumi couldn't help but glance at El-Melloi II beside him. He had indeed participated in the Holy Grail War.

Even if an investigation is conducted, it is impossible to investigate all the details of the events of this era clearly.

Therefore, the only possibility is that the other party had already participated in this Holy Grail War.

Then think about the strange look on his face when he mentioned Rider...

Koizumi chuckled. He had roughly guessed who El-Melloi II was in this era.

"What?" Even Kenneth couldn't help but be slightly stunned, with a look of surprise and doubt in his eyes.

"The morning after the Servant War at the Docks, the war's overseer summoned all factions and stated that they would prioritize eliminating Caster and would provide rewards for doing so... and my knowledge is not limited to this."

El-Melloi II spoke slowly as he recalled.

"I also know that you originally planned to summon King of Conquerors Iskandar in this war. However, the holy relic prepared for him was stolen by Waver Velvet, a student of the Clock Tower. You were forced to use Diarmuid Odinar as a replacement."

Chapter 454 I've seen people who can talk nonsense, but I've never seen anyone who can talk nonsense this much

"I also know that your original plan to summon King of Conquerors Iskandar in this war was to summon him. However, the holy relic prepared for him was stolen by Waver Velvet, a student of the Clock Tower. You had no choice but to use Diarmuid Odinar as a replacement." El-Melloi II spoke slowly as he recalled.

At this moment, the surprise on Kenneth's face was obvious when he heard these words.

There was a hint of surprise in Diarmuid's eyes. As a Heroic Spirit, he was very clear about the nature of the existence of Heroic Spirits, so in his heart, he might have roughly guessed what kind of existence El-Melloi II was in front of him.

"Why even these things..." Kenneth muttered to himself.

"And the one who provided the magic power to that Servant was not you, but your fiancée, Ms. Sola Nazelle Sophiali."

As he spoke, El-Melloi II's eyes never left Kenneth.

"We're probably staying in another room for now, probably out of caution. However, it's only natural that you'd warn us."

“…” Hearing this, Kenneth was speechless for a moment.

"By the way, speaking of Ms. Sora, there's a draft of a love letter in your study."

As if he had thought of something, a faint smile appeared on El-Melloi II's lips.

"Let me think, I remember it started with, [My beautiful sweetheart, your eyes are filled with the radiance of morning dew...]"

Youmu couldn't help but twitch her lips, but she didn't say anything. For her, falling in love was too far away.

However, Koizumi, Ritsuka, and Mashu all revealed a subtle expression at the same time.

It turns out that this guy can actually write such a corny and speechless love letter. It's incredible. It really shows that you can't judge a person by his appearance.

As if seeing through Koizumi's thoughts, Ritsuka rolled her eyes at him. "You're even worse than this guy, aren't you? What did you say and do in front of Remlia at the first singularity, Orleans? Don't you have a little Hercules in your heart? You still have the right to call this guy's love letter corny!"

Koizumi couldn't help but curl his lips. Because of El-Melloi II's magic, the mental activities of Koizumi and the others were connected. Ritsuka and the others could basically hear what Koizumi was thinking.

Come to think of it, Ritsuka, don't you think the same thing? What qualifications do you have to criticize me here?

But what is unexpected is that although people initially thought he was an authentic magician, he actually attaches so much importance to love.

"Shut up! That's enough!" As if he couldn't stand El-Melloi II's teasing words, Kenneth's face turned red, and his eyes stared at El-Melloi II in front of him with deep doubts in his eyes.

"Who are you!?"

"I can speak for Lady Lanis, and it's true. However, it wasn't until four years from now that I was given that family name. So, for me, everything I just said belongs to the past."

"Haha..." Kenneth gradually calmed down and smiled, covering up his previous gaffe.

Seeing this, El-Melloi II couldn't help but praise him, "You are worthy of being the leader of Archibald for being able to smile at this."

"Time travelers? I've also heard that some people are obsessed with this kind of research. I used to think that such research had no possibility of success and was just a foolish exploration... But even so, I still hope to hear a more convincing explanation. It's already close to the principles of magic, so it naturally can't be something simple, right?" Kayneth looked at El-Melloi II in front of him.

"Then allow me to briefly explain. I beg you to listen to my brief account."

A smile flashed across El-Melloi II's lips, and then he slowly explained to Kenneth in front of him.

He had already learned about Chaldea through communication with Dr. Roman, so when explaining it, he only needed to tell the other party about the composition of Chaldea and the principle of spirit particle transfer, and the other party would naturally understand.

After all, he is one of the monarchs of the Clock Tower and has the corresponding knowledge. He only needs to explain it to the other party and they will understand.

So, basically, after El-Melloi II gave a general idea, Kenneth understood.

"I see. Observing the past through projections on the Earth's environmental model, utilizing the Heroic Spirit Summoning System's teleportation method... all of this is possible thanks to the introduction of the Spirit Calculator."

Kenneth had a look of sudden realization on his face and slowly spoke.

"Spirit particle computer... There's a rumor that the Atlas Institute seems to be attempting such research..."

"Yes. And all of these great magical achievements were made possible with the support of the Archipelago family."

El-Melloi II said these words with a deadpan expression, shocking Koizumi Muyu, Ritsuka, Mashu, and Dr. Roman.

Although these people did not show it on their faces, there were still some subtle hints.

"You over there, don't make any expression!" El-Melloi II gave Ritsuka a very subtle look.

Ritsuka's expression was already very strange, and it would be easy for Kenneth or Diarmuid to notice something unusual.

"Senior, please keep a straight face here!" Mashu also gave Ritsuka a look. Ritsuka had no choice but to endure it.

"Are you saying that it was the future Archibald who brought about such fruitful results?"

Kenneth's face showed a look of surprise.

"Such a fruitful achievement is naturally due to Sir Kayneth's excellent planning and leadership. From now on, you will prosper in the Clock Tower... By absorbing the achievements of various schools of thought, you will finally realize the grand project of [Chaldea]."

Even Koizumi couldn't help but twitch his lips when he heard this. He had seen people who could talk nonsense, but he had never seen anyone as good as this. The director of your Chaldea would probably crawl out of his coffin after hearing this.

"I wonder what Director Olga Marie's expression would be if she heard this..."

Dr. Roman also had a subtle expression, not knowing what to say.

"Yeah, I can't imagine it either..." Mashu couldn't help but frown.

Li Xiang curled his lips, thinking that it might crawl out from somewhere...

"However, since we've come this far, I hope to achieve some results."

Koizumi's voice echoed in everyone's minds, causing them to nod in unison.

However, they now roughly guessed why El-Melloi II chose Kayneth as his ally.

This person seems to be unable to withstand the praise...

Chapter 455: So easy to cheat...

"Heh... I have nothing to do with the Atorus Court. Rather, I genuinely detest those bigots. There's no way I'd collaborate with those pessimists. I used to think it was impossible... heh... heh heh."

It seems that because of his relationship with the Atlas Academy, Kenneth has no imagination about El-Melloi II.

At least that's what Koizumi and the others understood from Kenneth's words, but—

"Really? Well, it's not completely impossible!"

Suddenly, Kenneth's attitude did a 180-degree turn, almost hurting Koizumi's waist.

"Ah, if I want to participate in the factional struggle, I'm a little stretched with only the Spirit Conjuring and Minerals Departments. I've felt that way before. In fact, I've long thought that I should find some other research. Hmm, I didn't expect I had talent in that direction. So - even at my age, I haven't given up and started to show my true strength -"

Kenneth's words left Koizumi and the others stunned. "So you're so arrogant!"

"Is this guy really the monarch of the Clock Tower? This guy's previous personality has collapsed!"

Koizumi couldn't help but grumble in his heart, looking at Kenneth with a subtle expression.

“Eh—!? He seems different from what I imagined. Is there something wrong with his image?!”

Dr. Roman couldn't help but reveal a strange look on his face, but fortunately no one else noticed it.

At this time, Diarmuid also smiled and praised his master without hesitation.

"As expected of you! Indeed, I, Diarmuid, have believed from the very beginning that even though the current Master looks a little dangerous, he will definitely be someone who can accomplish great things in the future!"

"Of course, it wasn't just the technological achievements that contributed. The financial assistance from the Sofia family also played a significant role. The huge amount of funds that were raised to successfully build the Chaldea facility was also due to the harmonious and happy personal life you and your future wife enjoyed."

Since he had already started talking nonsense like this, El-Melloi II might as well continue talking nonsense.

Anyway, this guy doesn't know what will happen in the future, so no matter how much nonsense he talks, he won't know the truth.

After all, it is basically obvious now. To put it bluntly, this guy just likes to hear good things. The happier his life is in the future, the happier he will be. At least it's OK as long as there is no problem with El-Melloi II.

But then again, this guy is really speechless... I overestimated him! Koizumi couldn't help but smile bitterly.

"Aha, hahaha. Can I succeed in my family if I concentrate on pursuing the path of magic... Actually, I have had this worry a little bit. So that's how it is. Hahahaha!" Kenneth couldn't help but feel proud and couldn't stop smiling.

"Oh, so that's why El-Melloi II wanted to win over Lancer's faction first..."

"Because compared to the other factions, this one is the easiest to deceive, right..."

Mashu and Ritsuka couldn't help but complain in their hearts, and the expressions on their faces became more and more weird.
