Next, Shen Er, what's your business?

Chapter 167 The Survivor (Part [-])
"what?"

"Have you thought of a solution?"

"is this real?"

There are three faces from left to right in front of Shinji, the poker face Emiya Kiritsugu, the iceberg beauty Hisu Maiya, and the natural and pure Irisviel.

Of course, this is Shen Er's usual impression of the three of them, and now the expressions of the three of them are surprisingly unified, with eyes widened, pupils constricted, mouths slightly opened, and only two large characters - "excited" - are written on their foreheads.

"Sure enough, it's not that the family doesn't enter the house."

Shen Er silently complained in his heart and explained patiently.

"I said that I thought of a possible solution, but it doesn't mean it will be effective, let alone successful."

"That's okay, it's better to have ideas than nothing, Shen Er, you should hurry up and say it, don't be fooled." Justesa urged.

After the Holy Grail War, because of the relationship between Justisa and Irisviel, the Matou family and the Emiya family got closer and closer, and Shinji became a frequent visitor to the Emiya family.

"My plan is to find a body for Miss Irisviel."

"Physical?" The three of Wei Gong's family spoke in unison.

"Yes, body. Soul and body are the two most basic elements of human beings. Those of us who study magic know that the soul is the content, and the body is the container. Both are indispensable. Without the content, the container is just an empty shell. Without the container, the content will lose its object of possession, and will disappear from the world just like this water—"

As Shen Er said, he picked up a teacup and poured the tea in the cup onto the coffee table.

"—without the cup it would spread out like this and be evaporated, but if this—"

The fingers moved to draw an ice rune, and the warm tea quickly froze.

"—the tea is fixed. This is the only known exception——miracles related to the 'third magic' and 'soul materialization', such as the summoning of heroic spirits, such as Justesa who made a contract with me, such as Ellie You, Miss Sfeier. Unfortunately, Justisa's "third magic" is not complete. It is better when the target of the spell is yourself, and you can adjust it at any time. But for you, Miss Irisvier, there is no way To be so meticulous, this has led to your current unstable situation."

Shinji put down his teacup, injected magic power into the ice surface, and used the Matou family's fluid manipulation magic to shape the spread ice surface into an ugly cylinder.

His intention is very clear, the water is Irisviel's soul, the teacup is the body, and it is Justesa's third magic that condenses the water into icicles, but the shape of the icicles and the original shape of the tea in the teacup are still the same. There are certain differences.

"So, the best thing to do to resolve the situation is to put the water back in the teacup."

"But the soul is not real tea, not any cup can be poured, if you change the container at will, it will become like a dirty inkstone—"

The human soul is delicate and fragile, and the slightest mismatch between the containers will cause damage to both parties, and eventually it will become a "rotten living dead" like a dirty inkstone.

Shen Er was well aware of Justesa's worries, and since he dared to make this suggestion, he naturally had a solution.He pointed to the tray in the center of the coffee table, and there were several teacups in the same style.

"What if it's the same container?"

"You mean—"

Justesa clapped her hands violently.

"That's right, Eri's body was made by Ahad and the others. If they can make one, they can make another one."

"Does it mean that you are willing?" Kiritsugu is not as optimistic as Justesa, "The cost of Ellie's body is very high, and it is a big burden for the Einzbern family. Moreover, I may have been identified by Ahad For traitors."

The Einzbern family is isolated from the outside world, and there are very few ways to obtain information. Their knowledge of the Fourth Holy Grail War may only be the superficial result of "Saber destroyed the Holy Grail".Without knowing the inside story, it is perfectly normal to come to the conclusion that "Emiya Kiritsugu betrayed".

This was confirmed at the end of FateZero.The Fourth Holy Grail War described in the book also ended with Saber destroying the Holy Grail.After that, Kiritsugu was identified as a traitor by Ahad. Although he was not directly retaliated against, he was never able to set foot in the "Winter City", the stronghold of the Einzbern family, and was able to live with his daughter Eli until his death. See you next time.Now, Kiritsugu's intelligence network has not received any news about the Einzbern family, which in itself already shows the attitude of the Einzbern family.

What's more troublesome is that the characteristics of artificial people determine that the members of this family will not eat soft and hard, and will not eat oil and salt, and the common methods of coercion and temptation to human beings will not work on them.Even if Justesa, who has a special status in the family, comes forward, it may not be able to convince the family's top decision-maker, the central control artificial intelligence Golem Jubstacheit, but may be targeted by Golem Jubstacheit who is loyal to the mission, triggering a series of events. This is why Shinji is unwilling to deal with the Einzbern family.

The more he analyzed, the colder Kiritsugu's heart became, so it would be better to maintain the status quo, wait until he finds a way to provide Irisviel with magic power stably, and then go directly to "Winter City" to rescue his daughter Illya.

"Why haven't I thought about learning Einzbern's alchemy in the past nine years?"

At the end of his distress, Kiritsugu held his head and whispered such a meaningless self-blame.His self-blame made the hearts of Irisviel and Hisau Maiya sink as well.

Seeing such a scene, Shinji rubbed his nose, and said a little embarrassedly: "Uh, you seem to have misunderstood, I didn't say I was looking for Einzbern, I was looking for another person. This person Her alchemy may not be as good as Einzbern's, but her doll-making skills are definitely better than Einzbern's."

The puppet made by this person allowed Emiya Shiro, who became a state similar to Alice Viel at the end of the "Fatestaynight" "Heavens Feel" line, to be "resurrected" as a human being.

The puppet made by this person does not contain any physical genetic factors, and the shape of the puppet is entirely based on the individual information carried by the soul, including but not limited to memory, magic circuits, etc. - these information are actually stored in the soul Instead of the brain, Alice Feil, Justesa, and even the heroic spirits can obtain the materialized entity of the soul because of the effect of these information, that is, the body will make adjustments according to the soul and perfectly fit with the soul.

"Who is this person you are talking about?" Kiritsugu asked bluntly.

"Aozaki Chengzi, a magician rated as the 'crown' by the 'Clock Tower', the world's number one puppeteer."

PS: I saw in this chapter that the book friends asked why they squatted down. In fact, it was because Sakura bowed her head and cried. If she didn’t squat down, Shen Er couldn’t see her eyes, and her eyes couldn’t see Shen Er, so she became like this Weird pose.
