After listening, Rin was deeply shocked. The information that Maren provided completely overturned all her previous understanding.
She was stunned for a while before she came to her senses. She looked up and rubbed her forehead as she opened the courtyard gate: "Anyway, please come in first."
The three of them went into the house together and sat down in the familiar living room.
Rin poured a cup of tea for the two of them before looking at the photo and saying, "Tell me about what's going on on your end first. As for your questions, I'll answer them after I understand the situation."
“No problem.” En didn’t mind and briefly explained his situation to the other party.
To put it simply, he wasn't originally from that world. He suddenly arrived in that parallel world and, due to some needs, approached the Tohsaka family at the time. Eventually, he ended up staying with the Tohsaka family and cooperating with Tokiomi Tohsaka in the Fourth Holy Grail War.
Upon hearing this, adult Rin couldn't help but interject, "Wait?! The Fourth Holy Grail War?! Wasn't there only one Holy Grail War in total, the one twelve years ago?"
A glint flashed in Ma En's eyes: "So that's how it is, this is the world."
Real hammer!
This world is the FGO route!
I was also a little excited. I never expected to meet my target on my first trip. It's like winning the lottery!
Yes, the main reason why Maren is now time-traveling is to find the world of the FGO route.
This way, he could hitch a ride to Babylonia, the seventh singularity.
There, Tiamat made her first attempt to return to the world unharmed.
Otherwise, if he hadn't tried, he wouldn't even know how to bring Tiamat back to the world.
He had tried it once before, after the Holy Grail War ended.
He was thinking of letting Tiamat enter his personal space, and then having him bring the personal space back to the real world.
However, this attempt was completely unworkable. Once Ma En took Tiamat with him, he himself would be unable to return to the real world.
Therefore, Ma En thought he should go to that Seventh Singularity to learn how to bring Tiamat back, and also to conduct some experiments along the way.
"You understand now?" Upon hearing this, the usually silent mother, Shan Shan, couldn't help but look at Ma En.
Ma En nodded, leaving his mother, Shan Shan, somewhat speechless.
Why do I get the feeling that you think you know everything?
"You're all talking nonsense! Answer my question!"
The two ignored the adult Rin, and seeing them talking to each other without paying attention, she immediately became annoyed.
"Simply put, in our world, or rather the mainstream world, the Holy Grail War has been held several times, all in Fuyuki."
"You know that guy Webber, right? El-Melloi II. There was a certain inevitability in the fact that this guy became El-Melloi II."
"Because of this inevitability, he is El-Melloi II in many worlds, and the Holy Grail War is almost the same. It is even related to the inevitability in Waver. Therefore, the Holy Grail War will inevitably be held, and Fuyuki will definitely be a part of it."
"Therefore, those who are familiar with the various parallel worlds can roughly classify them according to how many Holy Grail Wars have been held in Fuyuki."
"I just confirmed the general classification of this world based on the information you revealed about the Holy Grail War. Do you understand what I mean?"
Chapter 183 As expected of you, Rin, you're such a pain!
After Ma En rattled off a long explanation, the adult Rin finally quieted down.
After pausing to process this information, he nodded.
She naturally recognized Weber, as he was one of her mentors when she studied at the Clock Tower, and she had taken classes in his classroom.
Next, Ma En told the other party about what happened in their Fourth Holy Grail War.
This wasn't discussed in detail; only a general outline was given, without mentioning the singularity event. The focus was on the ending.
"So that's how it is. My father went to the source over there."
Rin, now an adult, couldn't help but feel a little disappointed. She had thought that her father on the other side was still alive and well.
Unexpectedly, it simply disappeared. While it can't be said to be dead, it was completely gone without a trace.
Her sister's situation, however, brought her some comfort.
She wasn't adopted out; she stayed at home and grew up with another girl, and her mother was safe and sound.
"Aren't you even a little bit doubtful?"
Seeing the change in her expression, Ma En couldn't help but make a comment.
What's wrong with this adult Rin? How can someone so grown up act so unreliably? She believes everything he says without questioning him at all.
"Oh right! Do you have any proof?"
Rin, now an adult, seemed to only then remember the 413 points. Her face flushed slightly, and she asked somewhat embarrassedly.
Snapped!
Ma En slapped his forehead and shook his head speechlessly.
"Hahaha, as expected of you." Shan Shan let out a merciless laugh.
This laugh really pissed off adult Rin, who blushed and yelled, "Wu Lu Sai! Who am I to you?! It's none of your business!"
However, this extraordinary behavior did not stop Niang Shanshan's laughter; instead, it made her laugh even louder.
"There's nothing I can do, it's just that you're prone to messing up. It's a family tradition, and I don't expect you to improve on it."
Ma En smiled helplessly, then pulled out a jeweled sword.
"This should be enough proof, right?"
The adult Rin glanced at the jeweled sword, nodded seriously, and formally reaffirmed his identity as Ma and En.
"Then, if there's anything else you need to know, just ask. I'll do my best to help you."
Marne didn't stand on ceremony. After asking some general questions, he focused on inquiring about the Animusphia family and the Chaldea organization.
Unfortunately, even as an adult, Rin is a poor, down-on-her-luck young lady who doesn't know much, not even what Chaldea is.
However, she did know some things about the Animusfia family, such as the fact that the previous head of the Animusfia family, Marisbury, had been assassinated, a fact that could not be kept secret.
Information such as her daughter Olga Marie inheriting the position of head of the Animusfia family, and the Animusfia's position as the celestial monarch.
"It's basically confirmed that you haven't come to the wrong place."
This information alone is enough for Marx and Engels to draw their conclusions.
This is indeed the world of the FGO route.
Upon hearing this, Niang Shanshan raised an eyebrow: "Oh? You won the lottery right away?"
"What? You won the lottery?" Nian Lin asked, looking completely bewildered.
To be honest, she was starting to dislike talking to the two of them.
The information gap was too large, and it would be easy for her to get confused if they started talking.
It's really upsetting to know that everyone else knows, but you're the only one who doesn't!
"By the way, you haven't said what your purpose is in time travel."
As she said this, she looked at the two of them suspiciously.
She strongly suspected that the two of them were hiding something.
What Marne said next only confirmed her suspicion.
"You don't need to know that. Some things are useless if you don't reach that level; they will only cause you more trouble."
As Ma En said this, he stood up, called to his mother Shan Shan, and prepared to leave.
He didn't plan to have too much interaction with this adult Rin. After all, there were so many parallel worlds, how could he possibly take care of so many Rins of Tohsaka? Having one loli Rin at home was enough.
"So many bridges and sacks!"
Adult Rin flashed forward and blocked their way: "You can't leave until you explain yourself."
Ma En was helpless. Knowing this girl as he did, he knew without even thinking that she must have imagined something and then her sense of justice got the better of her.
Just as Gemstone Ogishia once commented on Tohsaka Eito, the ancestor of the Tohsaka family, "He may not be very mature, but he is also unlikely to make mistakes," Rin Tohsaka inherited this quality.
In her heart, she has her own set of 'rationality,' which distinguishes her from ordinary people; she is a magician with common sense and conscience.
Therefore, she also has a sense of justice, or rather, it is something that is 'reasonable' in her mind, only this 'reasonableness' is closer to the common people's value perception.
"Oh?" En raised an eyebrow, sized up the mature version of Rin Tohsaka, and said with a disdainful smile, "You're determined to stop us?"
As he spoke, his magical power erupted.
Boom!
The massive surge of magic created a powerful vortex that sent surrounding objects flying: tables, sofas, tea sets, and of course, the adult Rin.
rub rub~
Rin, now an adult, retreated repeatedly, stepping on her toes until she reached the wall and barely managed to steady herself.
She looked at Marne in astonishment: "This magic... how is this possible?! And it's a person?!"
Cold sweat trickled down her forehead; she was truly terrified by the strength that Ma En had displayed.
With this level of magic, even grand magicians could unleash a continuous barrage of spells without a care in the world.
For a moment, Rin felt immense pressure, but she resolutely stepped forward and blocked Ma En's path again.
He didn't say anything, just looked at Marne with a serious expression.
He expressed his meaning through movement.
Maren looked at her with a slightly mocking smile: "Not bad, commendable courage."
The burst of magic subsided, and a sunny smile returned to his face.
"Huh?" Nian Lin was suddenly taken aback.
"What do you mean?"
Weren't they just acting like they were about to fight? What's going on now?
Ma En shrugged and laughed, "Nothing else, just testing you."
test?
