The copy boss is FIVE

Soul Gem.

The soul is manifested as a gem, shaped like an oval-shaped egg resting on a metal base.

The egg... hatched?Considering that it will later become a witch seed because it is too late to purify the accumulated impurities, the purpose of this thing is to incubate despair and gloom, I think the crystal clear and pure color of gemstones is quite deceitful and even ironic.

The jewel in Ayako's hand was a pure transparent color.

"It's beautiful, what is this?"

"It's your soul gem."

"What is the soul gem? What is it for?"

"It is the embodiment of your own soul, which can turn you into a magical girl and use special powers to fight witches."

"Why do you want to fight the witch?"

"Items are easy to be contaminated with filth, and it is easy to inhale filth after the soul is materialized. At this time, it is necessary to obtain the seed of the witch's lament to purify the soul gem."

"Why can the witch's seed of lament purify the soul gem?"

"Well...this..."

"Is it an unanswerable question?" The girl who had stood up stared at Chubby forcefully, "Since there is a contract between us, at least you have to let me know what is in the contract between us?"

Girls are innocent and innocent. To put it bluntly, they don't think too much about issues like adults.

After giving them nice clothes and special powers, they become obsessed with their new powers, tell them they need to fight a witch and they will fight, who wants to know why things happen?

But this is Academy City, and the students are all top-notch, so it's not surprising that they would think too much.

In short, as long as it can trigger the hatching of despair, Chubby doesn't mind giving the girl the seeds of despair from the very beginning.

"Because the seeds of lamentation can absorb and store filth, this is also the most basic interest relationship for magical girls to defeat the witch."

"Why can the seed of lament absorb and store filth?"

"Why can light reflect seven colors?" Qiubi asked rhetorically, posing as a teacher-like guiding gesture, "Things have their own attributes."

"That's because different wavelengths of light have different colors. I want to know the real reason why the witch's lamentation seed has a special effect on the magical girl's soul gem."

Ayako doesn't intend to be fooled, even if she knows the answer to what she wants to ask, but let Chubby accept it reasonably for her later familiarity with the setting and intends to explore the behavior of the soul gem and the seed of lamentation, instead of doubting her from the beginning There are impure motives.

Now she only has the lv3 wind ability of this vest itself.

Without the assistance of the system, without the six eyes without the lower limit, he is just an ordinary person.

Without waiting for Chubby to answer, Ayako had already made a gesture of thinking: "Witch...Magic girl...Is there any connection between this?"

Chubby chuckled: "You are really smart, you are worthy of being a student of Academy City."

"Please tell me the answer."

"Of course, but you haven't seen a witch yet?" Chubby flicked his big tail calmly, "There are no witches in Academy City, come with me to the outside world, after fighting the witch, if you If you still want to know the answer, I will tell you."

"It's hard to get out of Academy City."

"That's your problem. You are already a magical girl, do you still want to stick to the rules?"

"Okay...if I lose the soul gem, will I die?"

Chubby blinked: "To be precise, the soul gem is your body, please protect it well."

"The soul gem is the real body..." The girl's indifferent expression finally showed a crack, she held the gem in one hand and covered her chest with the other, "Then what am I now? Isn't it me in this body?"

Chubby bent his mouth happily: "Humans lose their souls, should they be called zombies?"

"I... am a zombie?"

The young girl's appearance of suffering a blow was extremely beautiful to Chubby.

"There are gains and losses in everything. You are on your feet, haven't you? In that case, isn't it great to enjoy a healthy life?"

Anyway, once the soul gem starts to pollute, the magical girl will have to fight the witch because of the pain.

As long as the contract is made, the magical girl will have no turning back, and can only be hatched in despair, from a magical girl to a witch, and finally killed.

And the energy released in this process is exactly what Chubby needs as a family of incubators.

Incubators are an ancient civilized race with the technology to convert emotions into energy.

In order to avoid the heat death caused by the consumption of countless races in the universe, we searched for energy. After discovering that the energy transformed by human emotions can surpass entropy, we decided to sacrifice a small part of human beings, that is, girls with rich emotions, and transform them into magical girls. , providing energy for the universe.

Sounds great.

Of course, there are some people whose wishes are more important than their lives, so the exchange is naturally worthwhile.

But the incubator only chooses immature girls... What wishes can girls make?

Confess to someone you love?Get rid of the pressure brought by parents' schoolwork and making friends?Want to get the beautiful clothes and hand-made game consoles that you have wanted for a long time but your parents won't buy?

It is quite "expensive" for Ayako to hope for the rebirth of a broken limb.

Ayako even felt that it would be better to let Emiya Kiritsugu and Kyubey make a deal to realize the dream of world peace—if this group of incubators can really realize the ideal of the concept of "peace".

how can that be possible?

What is this great ideal like?For example, an adult who intends to conduct inhumane and cruel human experiments uses a lollipop to coax a child to lie on the experimental table, and before killing the other party, tells the child that he has accepted the lollipop as a reward, and It is a "great sacrifice" that has to be made for the development of science.

And in order to continue the existence of the "universe" of which world line, Chubby can even watch a certain world be destroyed by the witch, and then take away the energy that exploded in this world, and fill it back into their own universe.

In this sense, Chubby's behavior is no longer simply a "one-way decisive sacrifice" of one species to another, but is already considered a predator of the world.

Everything has its law of development.

Can't just because there is a reason for the existence of computer viruses, don't go to check and kill those viruses?

Chubby has its own reason and significance. As advanced intelligent creatures, they must also understand the reason why they are feared and hated by so many species and want to be hunted down. With the awareness of being wiped out, they will hide so that everyone can catch them. Can't help the weakness that may be killed and extinct?

Temporarily defined as a weakness.

And Ayako is trying to find a way to eradicate or limit Kyubey.

The ability to convert emotions into energy is quite useful, similar to how determination can change the world?

hiss……

Ayako held the soul gem to calm herself down.

Human beings have a nature that is more selfish than all creatures.

Before killing Chubby, she began to think about how to use him as a power station.

Sure enough, as long as the power can be held in one's own hands?

Even if the winners and losers, this kind of bereavement behavior of plundering and forcibly dominating alien species to make them props will only rot the precious and important human nature, right?

Ayako regained her will.

Ok……

For the sake of the beauty of the soul, it is better to simply do research and destroy everything related to Chubby.

After agreeing to meet outside of Academy City for two days and watching Chubby leave, Ayako went back to the house to find a rope, hung the soul gem around her neck, and turned on the computer.

Even if she leaves the system, her own computer skills are enough to support her free passage on the network of this academy—as expected, only the knowledge she has learned is truly her own.

She usually has system assistance, so she rarely checks the information by herself.The lack of practical theoretical basis comes into play after an hour --

She hacked into the mobile phone of Accelerator, the current highest being of Academy City, the chairman of the board.

Accelerator, who was woken up by his mobile phone in the middle of the night: Cao Sheng, he just fell asleep! !

This is his personal mobile phone, unless it's something serious, his subordinates should not disturb his dream at such a time.

Fang Accelerator held back his curse and picked up the phone.

【Yuriko Suzuko requests a video call with you】

The young man with white hair and red eyes froze for a moment, and then his sleepiness disappeared!

Lily of the bell family?

Who is kidding him?

Or, the guy finally—

Accelerator sat up with a jerk, subconsciously brushed his sleepy hair, nervously opened the permission button, and decided... If anyone is using that guy's name to play a prank on him, he will kill it right now. the other party!

Video is on.

In front of the camera is the upper body of a silver-haired girl in a sky-blue lace nightgown....

Silver hair, blue eyes, similar face as before, but with different parts.

"To make a long story short, come and meet me in the dormitory of Tokiwadai Girls' School immediately."

It's okay for her to go to Accelerator, but after transforming into a magical girl, she will definitely enter Chubby's supervision.

Although she may be under supervision now...but she didn't find out about Chubby's existence before she contacted Accelerator, so it should be considered...private time?

The girl's voice was familiar yet unfamiliar, like a dream.

Accelerator stayed for a while, and was about to scold the other party for his unreasonable request to let him go to the dormitory of the girls' school, but the video was hung up.

The white-haired young man turned over and got out of bed, quickly turned on the computer and began to check the school information of Tokiwadai Girls' School.

Lily of the bell family.

The information from 11 years ago has been falsified.The time of the other party suddenly shifted by 11 years, and he came to the present when he was 27 years old.

Accelerator changed into the white shirt and trousers he wore outside, took the elevator to the top of the building, and then opened his pure white wings against the night wind.
