I Will Be the Son of Man

"But, to you, I'm an imposter, right?"

Chloe sneered, and it could be seen that her mood was not stable.

"What does it mean?"

Ilya still couldn't understand the words of both parties, and her eyes showed confusion.

"Then let's start from the beginning."

Irisviel smiled gently at Chloe, but Chloe just turned her face away and ignored it.

"Illya, you should know the concept of magic, right?"

"Ah, no, I don't know......"

Illya's eyes drifted, and her face became tense.

She didn't tell Irisviel about the magical girl. After all, it would be too embarrassing for her family to know about that kind of thing.

Therefore, she intends to play dumb here to the end.

"Huh? But the little wand told me, Illya, can you transform into a magical girl?"

Irisviel's expression became confused, while Illya was stunned for a moment.

【Hahaha......Sorry, Illya.When I was wandering around outside your house, I was accidentally caught by this lady.so..........】

[I've already told her about Illya, I'm sorry. 】

At this time, [Ruby] floated out from nowhere, and laughed a few times, but there was not much apology in the voice, and it was still suspected of watching the excitement.

"[Ruby], you actually!"

Illya's eyes widened, while Irisviel smiled.

"Sure enough, Illya also has the dream of becoming a magical girl."

"Mom, I have had such a dream before~!"

[Eh, is it?As for my wife, I don’t think it’s too late to be one now~!]

[Ruby] seemed to be aroused, and the voice became cheerful again.

"Really? Well, if given the chance......"

"Wait! Wait! Isn't it important to talk about now? These things shouldn't be discussed here! Mom! [Ruby]!"

Seeing Irisviel and [Ruby], who seemed to be meeting old friends, Illya suddenly felt a little powerless.

Even her sense of shame when she learned that she was transformed into a magical girl by her family was suppressed here.

"You're right... Then, having said that..."

"I don't think there is any need to explain the concept of magic again. Illya, in fact, our family is also considered a famous magician."

Irisviel calmed down, looked at Illya and explained.

"The Einzbern family is a famous magic family in Germany that does not communicate with the [Magic Association] or any other magic organization, and in terms of inheritance, it has a history of more than a thousand years."

"I'm right, Irisviel von Einzbern."

Chloe looked at Irisviel with a hint of complexity in her eyes.

"Ah."

Not caring what the other party called her, Irisviel nodded with a smile.

"Magic, the famous family of magic......"

Illya blinked. Although she didn't know the concept very well, she still felt that it was very powerful.

"That's right. If we look at the usual situation, Illya and I, as well as Kiritsugu, may still be in Einzbern Castle in Germany."

"However, the Einzbern family, as a family of magic, has a mission that has been handed down from the beginning of its establishment."

"And in order to accomplish this mission, Einzbern also created a magic ceremony that could be called a 'miracle'. That is......"

"Holy Grail War."

Chloe crossed her arms, crossed her legs, and interjected.At the same time, the eyes subconsciously looked at Meiyu.

The Holy Grail.......War!

(③42967465)

After hearing this word, Miyu's body trembled uncontrollably, as if recalling something terrible.

And Hill looked at Miyu, confusion appeared in his eyes.But after that, he reached out and took Miyu's hand.

Feeling the cool temperature from her hands, Meiyu felt relieved, and the strange emotions that had surged up in the past subsided.

"Holy Grail War......"

Illya murmured, and at this moment, some memory fragments involuntarily appeared in her mind, which made her frown.

"That is a great magic where seven masters entrust the seven servants they summon to fight each other."

"The purpose is to determine the final winner, and then let the almighty wishing machine—the Holy Grail, descend on this land."

"And you, Ilya, were actually born as the Holy Grail."

Irisviel took the conversation, but when she said this, her expression also became complicated.

"However, everything is fine now. Because Kiritsugu and I have already chosen to end the Holy Grail War, so the Holy Grail War will no longer exist, and Einzbern also... ..."

"That's not true, Mom."

Chloe jumped off the table and landed on the ground.

"I should be the one born as the Holy Grail."

"Before I was born, I have been receiving adjustments and being instilled with the knowledge of magic."

"However, you sealed me up. My function, my knowledge, my memory, everything has been denied by you."

"So, what are you going to do by sealing these up, mother?"

"If you want me to live as an ordinary girl, that's fine. But why Illya! Can't I have the original memory!"

"Or, in your opinion, those pasts are just memories, and you never expected that I would exist there?"

Chloe looked up at Irisviel, she clenched her fists tightly, her voice choked with excitement.

"It's not like that, I'm sorry, I..."

Irisviel had an apologetic expression on her face. She was just about to say something, but Chloe's emotions were ignited by this apology.

"I'm sorry? Just a word of sorry can solve everything!"

"My life, the family and friends I should have, the memories I should have, can those things be taken back!"

"In the final analysis, this is just your wishful thinking, Mom! When you chose to seal it, you had already abandoned me!"

"Is there any need to apologize now!"

Crying hoarsely, Chloe's body suddenly erupted with a storm of magic power, blowing all the furniture in the living room upside down.

"This is... Chloe!?"

Illya took a few steps back subconsciously. She looked at Chloe who was in the center of the storm in surprise, but the scorching heat and sharp whirlwind from the air made her choose to take a few steps back.

Hill frowned, he let go of Miyu's hand, and was about to step forward, but an arm blocked him.

Irisviel shook her head lightly at Hill, and then walked forward on her own initiative.

The magic whirlwind like a knife edge blew on her skin, causing bursts of stinging pain, and even a hole was opened on her face, and a wisp of blood splashed into the air.

"mom!"

Illya yelled worriedly, but Irisviel didn't back down.

With a gentle smile on her face, she walked in front of Chloe, and the air around her became even hotter, like being in an overheated sauna, causing her forehead to ooze. I sweated a little.

Seeing Irisviel approaching her, Chloe took a step back as if she was afraid of something.

But her movements were still a bit slower. Irisviel took a step forward, squatted down, and hugged Chloe tightly.

The violent whirlwind of magic power blew her silver hair, and there were a few strands, which were also cut off and scattered into the air.

"I'm sorry. I know this is not something that can be solved with just a word of sorry, and I also understand that without the little wands, I may never know your existence."

"At that time, when I was sealing, I really just wanted you to live the lives of ordinary girls, and I didn't consider that there might still be you there."

"So, if you want to hate me, I don't have any complaints. However, the only thing I can guarantee is that from today on, I will always be your mother, even if you don't want to call me mother, it doesn't matter. "

"What you lost before, I can only make up for you in this way. For me, whether it is Illya or you, they will always be my children."

Irisviel loosened her arms a little, and then seriously looked at Chloe in front of her.

"However, it seems a bit cunning to say that. After all, this is not a mistake that can be made up so easily......"

Seeing Irisviel with a gentle smile on her lips and a bloodstain on her face, Chloe bit her lips lightly.

"What, to say such a thing......"

"Obviously it's all over now, obviously it's all over now......"

The violent whirlwind of magic power on her body gradually subsided, and Chloe's eyes were filled with tears.

If you want to say hate, if your life is inexplicably taken away, then yes, then there must be hatred.

However, looking at the woman in front of her and her slightly scalded arm, she couldn't hate her now.

"Chloe..."

Seeing that the other party's emotions seemed to have settled down, Ilya couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

However, before she could completely relax, Chloe's body suddenly emitted a burst of light, and her figure was gradually becoming thinner.

"Chloe!?"

Illya shouted anxiously, but Chloe just took a step back, left Irisviel's embrace, and looked at her dissipating body.

"Is that so, the magic power was used too much just now, can't maintain the body anymore......"

As if accepting her fate, Chloe chuckled lightly at herself.

"However, that's fine. After all, a counterfeit has to look like a counterfeit. Such an ending is in line with me as a counterfeit."
