The Divine Power of Comprehensive Comics

The ancient city used by ancient magicians to secretly preserve their lifeblood was located in a deserted mountain.

This is not the castle in Fuyuki City, but a castle in another region.

On this day, I was liberated from the wind and snow for a long time.

The bright sunshine shines on the earth, and green grass several centimeters high grows on the ground, forming a patch of green.

The rows of trees have escaped from winter, and the forest covered with green has become luxuriant.

Under the gentle and warm sunshine, a figure came here alone.

He waved to the little girl with silver waist-length hair waiting at the gate of the castle and smiled.

"Illya, let me fulfill an agreement."

A girl wearing a purple dress, with silver waist-length hair and red eyes.

After seeing Xia Qing's arrival and the two things he was holding, Illya's eyebrows lowered involuntarily.

"They are all……"

Although he wanted to tell her that Irisviel had not completely disappeared, there was no point even if he told her. Xia Qing now did not have the power to free Irisviel from the Holy Grail.

However, the little girl in front of me, Illya, must find a way to save her. If this continues, Illya will not survive for a year after the end of the Fifth Holy Grail War.

After telling Illya most of the things about the Fourth Holy Grail War, three days passed.

On this day, Illyasviel von Einzbern took Xia Qing for a walk outside the city.

"Very good, I will never lose today!"

While making such a high-spirited declaration, Illya walked up to Xia Qing and headed towards the forest excitedly. While striding across the green grass with her little boots, she calmly peeked at the surrounding trees, not missing anything. There was no gap in any place.

The girl was currently in a competition with Xia Qing. With an innocent expression, Illya's childish voice sounded.

"The loser must imitate the Mapo Ri tree!"

"...Don't use my mouth as a bet!!!"

————————

"Oh, I found it, the first one today."

Hearing Xia Qing's proud declaration behind her, Illya turned around with a surprised and unconvinced expression.

"Liar! Where is it? I obviously didn't miss it!"

Xia Qing returned a smile of approval to the cute girl with a red face and regret, and pointed to a branch above her head. On the walnut branch, a green walnut could be seen.

"Humph, we've scored first, so keep going."

Xia Qinggu made a proud expression and put the walnuts into the basket held by the maid who was following him.

"I won't admit defeat! I definitely won't admit defeat today!"

The repeated competition between Xia Qing and Ilia in the Spring Forest is to find blue walnuts.

The smaller the score, the higher the score.

That was a game that Ilya and his father used to play. Now that she had no playmates, she roped in Xia Qing to accompany her, eating, drinking, and playing with her.

Ilia started to move forward angrily. Looking at her look, Xia Qing chuckled and did not stop her.

Judging from the positions of the walnuts discovered by Xia Qing one by one, Illya looked very serious today.

"Ah, yes, Illya also found one!"

Behind the elated Illya, Xia Qing's right arm went around her shoulder and placed a trophy in front of her little face.

"Hmph, I'm already the second one~"

"..."

At this time, Illya jumped up as if a cat had been hit by a splash of water.

"Where? Where"

For the girl, her self-esteem was on the line this time, and she could be sure that she would never miss it.

In fact, she didn't miss it at all. It's just that the opponent in this competition had helpers she couldn't see.

It was not easy for Platinum Star, who was over two meters tall, to get the walnuts on the branches above. Illya, on the other hand, obeyed the rule of not using any magic and was looking for it obediently.

Well, I always feel like this is a bit not good.

Xia Qing thought with shame as she took the walnut thrown by Platinum Star.

At this time, the eight-year-old girl saw Xia Qing catching the flying walnuts, and her cheeks immediately bulged.

"A shameless person! A shameless person, a shameless person, a shameless person! My brother has always been a shameless person!"

"But didn't I use magic?"

"..."

The girl was stunned. She frowned and re-formulated the rules.

"Then from now on, you can only find walnuts with your own hands, otherwise it is a foul, and if you commit a foul, go to the big tree!"

"……okay."

Xia Qing put away the Platinum Star and began to search for it seriously.

"Ah, yes, Illya has found another one!"

Behind the cheerful Illya, Xia Qing smiled evilly.

"I've found the third one."

"Ha~~~!"

Illya quickly turned her head and looked at the so-called third one in Xia Qing's hand.

Then, the girl tilted her head in confusion and said.

"Ah? That branch isn't a walnut?"

"No, no, Illya, that branch is a walnut, a walnut's partner, so it is also a walnut."
