Paradise: Ready Player One

He said he wanted to save the world, but he couldn't even save his own daughter.

This is exactly what Chen Ming looked down on Emiya Kiritsugu the most.

"Is this really the case? Then why did they abandon Ilya here, why didn't they bring Ilya with them..."

Yi Liya questioned, but before Chen Ming could give an answer, she couldn't control her emotions, and fell on Chen Ming's chest, tears streaming from her eyes.

When Emiya Kiritsugu was still around, Illya was like a naughty little princess.

Quirky, very lively.

Being happy all day is like a flower blooming in the snow.

However, after learning the news of her parents' death, Ilya felt abandoned by the whole world.

A heart slowly fell silent in solitude.

Although there are many artificial maids in the castle, most of these people are like the parts that run the castle, and they can't comfort Ilya's increasingly lonely heart.

For Ahad, Illya is not a girl who lost her parents, but an excellent tool prepared to win the "Holy Grail War".

Growing up in such an environment, it is not easy for Illya to retain the innocent side of her character.

As for the indifference to life after adulthood, this is inevitable.

Because no one taught Illya the ethics and right and wrong in this world.

"Cry, it feels better to cry out"

Feeling the warmth in Chen Ming's arms, Yi Liya cried even more recklessly.

Her cries echoed throughout the empty front hall.

After a while, Ilya's sad and wronged emotions were controlled.

He raised his head, revealing two swollen bun-like eyes, and said in a pleading tone.

"Big brother...can you tell me something about your parents?"

"No problem, but I think the first thing you need to do is to fill your stomach."

Chen Ming had long noticed Ilya's physical weakness.

It should be because they had heard the news of Emiya Kiritsugu's death before, they were immersed in sadness and couldn't extricate themselves, and they didn't eat well.

Ahad had already decided to shut down the operation of the castle, so he would not care about Illya's physical condition.

"……Um"

Illya nodded embarrassingly. She did feel a sense of hunger and powerlessness, and even her legs began to feel weak.

Crying is also exhausting.

Chen Ming held Ilya in his arms. The little girl's body was very light, no heavier than a puppy.

"Get ready for dinner, Ahad"

"Yes, my lord"

Ahad has already assumed the identity of the steward.

"It seems that I can have another junior sister again."

Rin Tohsaka followed behind, and said to the two little sisters beside him with some joy.

"Maybe he's older than you, and you'll have to call him sister"

Karen skillfully handed the knife to Tohsaka Rin's heart, seeing other people happy, she couldn't be happy,

"Impossible! She looks a little smaller than me!"

Tohsaka Rin flicked his twin ponytails vigorously, rejecting this possibility both physically and psychologically.

Rin Tosaka is very happy to have multiple younger sisters, so that she can have multiple partners to be amused by, but if there is an extra older sister.

Sorry, Tohsaka Rin said that she is more experienced as a sister.

However, the fact is that Ilya is one year older than Tohsaka Rin, why does she look a little small.

That's because she had undergone many abnormal magical adjustments in her mother's womb, resulting in a rather slow growth rate.

In a year or two, it will stop growing completely.

If not intervened.

But this sad thing, Tohsaka Rin will not know until a few days later.

Coincidentally, these four "heroines" are all one year apart in age.

However, the youngest, Kallen, has the most mature personality, while the oldest, Illya, is the most childish.

This is quite an interesting thing.

The maids in Snow City have mastered all kinds of skills to a very high level, and their cooking skills are naturally not to mention, and they are definitely at the level of five-star chefs.

And considering Chen Ming's eating habits, they also studied Chinese cuisine during this period of time.

In one dinner, a combination of Chinese and Western is achieved.

A table full of delicacies makes people's index fingers move when they look at it.

Yi Liya sat next to Chen Ming.

It seems that Chen Ming's comfort just now made Yi Liya rely on her to a certain extent.

Naturally, this is also inseparable from Chen Ming's own charismatic attributes.

In addition, Illya in this period is really a good strategy.

As long as you find the right direction, your favorability can rise steadily.

This dinner made Yi Liya feel the joy of eating for a long time. During the previous period, she only ate to meet the needs of her body.

But this dinner was different. She made Illya feel alive again.

Not only because of Chen Ming's existence.

There are also Tohsaka Rin who is very expressive at the dinner table, Tohsaka Sakura who is so elegant and gentle that people yearn for, and Kallen who says a few heartfelt words from time to time.

All let Ilya once again experience the freshness of this world, instead of the snow scene outside the castle, which is white and unchanged.

In addition, there are three Yeye sisters who make Illya feel very cordial.

As for Hualiuzhai Glass, she didn't have much interest in eating, and all her attention was on the android maids around her, and she went up to her and started doing things to her.

Don't get me wrong, she did this only out of interest in the skills of the Einzbern family's artificial man.

Regardless of the fact that these artificial humans have flaws in thinking and emotion, but that is only the result of a deliberate effort to avoid "loss". In fact, their bodies are not much different from ordinary people.

On the path of the law of creation, the Einzbern family has come a long way.

These artificial humans also have the physiological reactions that ordinary people should have.

Under Hanayusai Glass's careful exploration, it was hard for the hapless maid not to make a sound.

Chen Ming, who heard the movement, had no choice but to stop it.

"Even if you want to study, there is no need for so many children to watch at this time."

"What can they understand?"

Hua Liuzhai Glass took his hand away from the maid with some reluctance, and it was obvious that the poor maid had a relieved expression on her face.

Perhaps in her life, she has never experienced such an exciting thing.

It has exceeded the limit that the maid's consciousness can bear.

If it continues, it might really be ruined by Hualiuzhai Glass.

After Emiya Kiritsugu and the others left, this Snow City had never had such vitality at this moment.

The sadness and loneliness in Ilya's heart were dissipated a lot in such an atmosphere, and the color on her face gradually became more lively that she should have at her age.

Chapter 346 Golem Hayd

After dinner, as agreed.

Chen Ming sent Illya to the bed, sat beside her bed, and told the story he knew about Irisviel and Emiya Kiritsugu.

Of course, considering that Ilya was still young, Chen Ming modified the plot of the story a little.

Make it easier for her to accept.

Counting it all together, Chen Ming not only helped Emiya Kiritsugu avenge him, but also fulfilled Irisviel's dying wish.

When Illya grows up, she has to thank him well.

Hearing the ending of her parents again, Illya couldn't hold back her tears,

But the difference is that this time her tears are more about accepting this fact, with a little relief in her sadness.

This was exactly what Chen Ming wanted, and he stretched out his hand to cover Illya with a quilt.

"Sleep well, tomorrow will be better"

"Big Brother... Will you also leave Illya's side..."

Just as Chen Ming was about to get up and leave, Ilya stopped him, poked her head out, and asked cautiously.

"No, sleep peacefully"

Chen Ming gave Ilya a smile, left the room, and closed the door behind her.

Around the door, Illya's personal maid has been waiting here.

Chen Ming said to the two of them.

"Take me to the heart of this castle"

"Yes"

The two maids responded respectfully.

"During this time, you two will be responsible for taking care of Illya."

Walking on the road, Chen Ming suddenly asked.
