88. Return to Chaldea and extract the realistic ability of memory! ([-] words chapter)

Is it all over?

As his body slowly awakened from a history full of struggle and pain, Ian found that he was still in the world behind that door.

To be more precise, it is the room of Chaldean Master No. 49.

This is a small residence, but every location is very well arranged.

Plain walls, a perfectly sized bed, and built-in wardrobes to hang lots of clothes.

And a mirrored dresser large enough to use.

A little further away is a separate bathroom, so it's not a problem to take a hot bath.

The remaining empty areas were filled with green plants that would not breed mosquitoes.

Everything was arranged so reasonably.

But when Ian looked at all this, he always felt a subtle sense of dissonance.

What is it?

correct.

It feels like being a worker.

Because everything has been arranged and I don't have much room to change, I feel that it is "reasonable" but "unsatisfactory".

I had never experienced such torture before traveling through time.After coming to Chaldea, I felt all of this severely.

It was an unspeakable discomfort.

But let's take a shower and calm down first.

A swipe.

Clear hot water rushed out of the shower head, flowing down Ian's hair, washing every inch of skin on his body.

to be frank--

He's not used to it.

Because the memory in his mind kept telling him that something like this should be done in a large bath with fragrant aroma.

The more hot water flows.

This sense of dislocation becomes more and more obvious.

In the end, Ian couldn't bear this feeling and stopped everything.

He wiped the water off his body, leaned back, and fell on the bed.

Looking at the ceiling above his head, the man felt that his consciousness gradually drifted back to that era of war.

Charge on the battlefield with a sword in hand;

Tryst in the room with Morgan;

Walking by the lake with Artoria.

Every experience is so real, and there is no trace of hypocrisy.

If you say this is a simulation, it would be disrespectful of your own feelings.

After all, it exists in memory in a completely independent and undisguised state.

"Will we meet again in the future?"

Ian stretched out his hand towards the ceiling, as if he could hold something.

"That's really nice."

"When the time comes, let's chat with them."

Although there are indeed many despicable and dirty thoughts in my heart.

But Ian knows that he sincerely wants Artoria and Morgan to get what they want and get the life they deserve.

If his own sacrifice could be exchanged for all this, it would be a really good deal.

of course.

The premise is "can be exchanged".

Ian knows that he is not the kind of person who wants nothing in return after sacrifice.

He doesn't have that level of awareness.

But speaking of it—

Ian looked at his hands.

It seems to have been mentioned at the end of the simulation.

That is, the history of pan-humanity has a certain ability written into itself.

If so, what kind of ability would it be?

Shila-

The moment Ian had this idea, the lights in the room flashed almost simultaneously.

Although it was only a brief moment, they did happen at the same time.

Ian is acutely aware of this.

His intuition told him that it couldn't be a coincidence.

So--

Just keep it the way it was just now and try it further.

With this thought in mind, Ian then focused his attention again along the same thinking direction.

——Hope was born after thinking——

——Extract possibilities from the past——

——Converted into reality in magic——

——Come to reality in mimicry——

Ian's thoughts are transformed according to an underlying logic that even he himself doesn't know.

He felt that the blood in his body was constantly surging in a certain way, as if it would condense at a node at a certain moment.

in this process.

He also felt some kind of physical movement that extended in all directions.

That kind of prayer that hopes to touch the idea gathers little by little, like the QTE that keeps attacking in the music game.

It's now!

Ian held his breath and held onto what looked like nothing.

Shila-

All the lights in the room went out in an instant.

But the surroundings did not fall into darkness.

Of course, this does not mean that there is any hallucination, but that there is another light source.

That was the blade that Ian held out of thin air.

Its name is Excalibur Galatine!

"This……"

He looked at the green-gold sword blade that appeared in his hand, and the golden light spinning on it.

Ian, whose cheeks were reflected in the same color, looked at everything in front of him in disbelief.

This is not an illusion.

Because he could actually feel the thickness coming from his hands - this was an experience that only the metal of that era could provide.

And as a weapon that is particularly vivid in that memory.

Ian was able to confirm that the pattern on the blade was exactly the same as his memory!

Did you let it cross the era and come to you?

The ability to write pan-human history mentioned by Simulation means allowing oneself to extract things from memory?

For a moment, Ian didn't know how to describe this miraculous experience.

but--

This didn't last forever.

A few sizzling sounds.

The light bulb returned to its normal appearance.

Warm light once again filled the interior of the room.

And Ian also saw that the Excalibur Galatine in his hand first turned into gray embers, and then broke into hundreds of particles and slowly dissipated.

Looking at the light curtain that dispersed like smoke, he realized that his previous perception needed to be corrected.

This ability to be written into the body by simulation can indeed allow one to retrieve things in memory.

But its essence is just memory after all, which will continue to dissipate as time goes by.

In a sense, it is a complete "fake".

But from another perspective, it is a "real thing" that is closely related to the ontology.

Wonderful!

Ian suddenly became excited.

If this idea of ​​mine is true, it is the ability to transcend time.

We have to find out quickly.

A dazed state is not what a good time traveler should have.

Just do it.

Ian once again focused all his attention.

This time, what he wanted to extract from his memory was the Sword of Victory (Excalibur).

This is the sword of Excalibur Galatine, which comes from the same holy lake. It is the weapon held by Arturia.

Although I haven't touched it for a long time in my memory.

But because his relationship with Artoria was close enough, Ian still had a very deep impression on her.

So--

Try it again.

But things didn't develop as Ian thought.

He really concentrated all his attention and expressed his strong desire to make it come to his hands.

But this time.

That mysterious sense of circulation didn't respond to him.

This made Ian realize that there seemed to be fallacies in his previous ideas.

However, he was not in a hurry to deny the results of his thinking.

maybe--

Is the Sword of Victory (Excalibur) an outlier?

After all, Artoria is indeed famous.

If that's the case, then try something else.
