Tokiomi Tosaka, who was wearing a red suit and a blue tie, held a magic book in one hand and a red wine glass in the other, and greeted me in a calm and humble manner.
"Well, I'm back." Because his attitude was so natural, I responded subconsciously before thinking of other questions.
Where is this?
Why didn't I go back?
Why is the scapegoat here?
The position where I was awakened because I blocked the director's gun was a "dream within a dream". Theoretically, I should return to the "ordinary dream" over there, but if I was still in a coma and rescue state, I would still be there.
The possibility of being in a "dream within a dream" is very high, but no matter how hard you think about it, you shouldn't see Tokiomi, right?
Didn't he ascend?
I turned around and looked around, and found that this seemed to be the back garden of Tohsaka's house. There was an open lawn in the middle, with only two stone lampposts and a hollow magic center that looked like Sheba. The inside of the surrounding walls were cut out
There are many bushes in the shape of squares, and there are abstract stone sculptures with ruby magic nodes embedded in the middle.
If these are genuine, they should be able to maintain detection and warning at all times, as well as preliminary expulsion and attack magic, but now there is no trace of magic power fluctuations at all.
I looked up at the sky. There were stars in the dark night sky. Although I didn't see the moon, it must be late at night.
And Tokiomi Tosaka was sitting in the back garden in the middle of the night, holding a wine glass in one hand and a book in the other... Is this the scholar Nao Yingxue?
"Before you plan to ask me anything, I must unfortunately inform you that this is just a preset response magic," Tokiomi Tosaka took a sip of red wine: "My own words should have been assimilated to the source, right?"
"Oh? Really? What's the synchronization rate? It can still be saved if it's below 400%." I looked at Tosaka Tokiomi, who claimed to be a magician, and asked.
"I didn't understand your question." Tokiomi Tosaka was stunned for a moment.
"Well...has he changed from Tokiomi Tokiomi to Siri Tohsaka?" I shook my head: "You continue."
"I overestimated myself," Tokiomi Tosaka returned to his story-telling tone: "You said, 'Don't look at the stars,' but I couldn't restrain my curiosity."
Oh? So this is actually the "root"?
I looked at the mountains and cities outside the courtyard wall. If they were not illusions, they should have been created by him.
"Every star is a synthesis of infinite possibilities in the same world. After I was entrusted with the important task by you, I was relatively cautious in adjusting time, place and people at first, but as the number of 'adjustments' increased,
And there was no sign of losing myself, I gradually became arrogant and began to make drastic changes." Phantom said.
Ah, yes, the characteristic of the Tosaka family is extreme confidence.
"During this process, I noticed that based on the world I left as the base point, every 5% difference will reach other 'stars'. There will be some fundamental difference between the two sides, and this difference will
This would cause their pasts to be very different. I was very curious about this and started researching this pattern."
Aren’t all magicians like this? At first Tosaka Tokiomi said he was curious about the root and insisted on going to the root to have a look. But after I gave him the root, he became curious about other worlds again, tsk tsk.
"In this process, I inevitably used the 'power of the root' many times. Since there was almost no cost or mental impact, I was quite complacent for a while that I had not been assimilated by the root. Until one day, I
Suddenly I realized that I always think about the world itself when encountering problems, treating mortals as ants, and that I can no longer think about problems as an ordinary magician, or as a human being, when it is already too late."
Ah, this is a combination of one's body and Tao...
It is very simple to give an example. For example, if you play a 6V6 shooting battle game, every enemy or teammate must seriously consider response and cooperation; but if it is a real-time strategy game with a population limit of 200, a single unit only has tactical control.
It's worth it. If you're lazy, just choose all A's. As long as you can win overall, local mistakes and sacrifices will basically be ignored; and if it's a round-based strategy game with a grand background and extremely long time, one city, one place, one planet.
The gains and losses of a galaxy are not taken seriously at all.
"In any case, since I have realized this, it means that my personal will has not been completely annihilated. I thought that as long as I act from the starting point of 'I' and 'Tosaka Tokiomi', I should be able to gradually get rid of the root cause.
Assimilate, but after making this decision, I discovered-" The illusion paused for a moment: "I can't remember which world I came from."
Appeared, the Tosaka family's symbol: "Drop the chain at the critical moment."
The illusion continued: "Because leaving the original world will cause changes in the world itself, and changes in other stars will also affect them due to the butterfly effect, so I found what I thought was the 'original world'
At that time, I discovered that its offset rate was not 0, but [1.130425%]. Where it should really be 0, there was nothing."
Do you mean you've gone too far and can't go back?
"Because of the 'root power' support, I decided to drag it back to its original '0' position," the phantom's voice was a little confused: "But when I dragged it to the initial position that I was sure of, its offset
However, the rate became [2.571024%]. Instead of recovering, it actually increased.”
Aren't you going the opposite direction...
"I thought I was going in the wrong direction, so I interfered with the world again and 'drag' it in the opposite direction. The result was that when the world returned to its original point, the deviation rate became [3.207405%], and then it was further dragged from its original point to
At the same distance from the 0 o'clock position in the opposite direction, its deviation rate reached [4.374511%]. Could it be that I will never go back? No, or rather, did I ever exist? Did I start from one?
Is the origin itself the beginning?" The phantom's voice was filled with vaguely audible panic. It was obvious that Tokiomi Tosaka was quite unstable when he recorded these words.
It seems very pitiful.
"However, your existence still gives me confidence," Illusion lowered his head and bowed: "In all the worlds, there is no sign that you have appeared, and the memory of your wanton behavior obviously cannot be 'from the beginning'
It is the existence of the root itself that can be imagined, especially since many of your actions are not logical at all."
Bah, there must be something hateful about poor people.
"I adjusted the 'initial world' a few more times, and even though most of the attempts were in vain, its offset rate still became [4.901102%]. In order to prevent it from exceeding 5%, I had to stop."
The action of "pull" and "pull" is to try a plan that has not been tested and I don't know whether it will succeed. At least, it won't get worse, right?"
"If I am 'assimilated' by the root, then no one will be able to reach the 'root' except you. Only you can hear this answer magic. Therefore, I apologize to you in advance - I'm sorry.
You are causing trouble."
The illusion of Tokiomi Tosaka stood up and bowed deeply to me.
