The big tree of cause and effect is ultimately nothing.
The blue world is unsustainable.
The mirror in my heart ripples constantly.
After a sound like a mirror shattering, the strange aura on Qiya's body completely dissipated.
His turquoise hair and eyes also returned to their usual yellow and gold color.
With his eyes closed, Li En also woke up from his trance and looked at his hands in a daze.
"This...is cause and effect."
"Yes, this is cause and effect."
Qiya took a step back, her delicate little face showing a depth and seriousness that was inconsistent with her age.
"Did Brother find the differences he wanted?"
"Most of them have been found." Li En raised his head and looked at Qia, "But there is still a little bit left to fully achieve my goal."
"It's Qiya's fault." Qiya blamed herself.
"Not necessarily." Rean shook his head, "Cause and effect are not fixed and will continue to change as things develop. Even if you don't do anything, I may not be able to find all the differences. I am already grateful for what I have gained now.
You, I will figure out a solution myself next."
"Big brother..." Qiya hesitated to speak.
"Don't worry."
Li En stood up and subconsciously touched Qia's head.
If possible, he didn't want Qiya to waste all her strength on peering into cause and effect.
But it has happened, and there is no point in blaming.
More importantly, even without these two gifts, Rean would work hard towards that goal without any regrets.
With irreplaceable companions.
"I am not fighting alone, and my partners are no worse than yours."
Alyssa, Emma, and Machias, who had been watching behind Rean, smiled at each other and spoke in unison.
"of course."
Levi, who was standing a little further away, glanced at Joshua and Estelle beside him, holding his left hand empty.
Caster on the other side also grasped his staff with a firm expression.
"I understand." Qia closed her eyes and opened them again quickly, "The eldest brother is a hero just like Lloyd. However, the difficulties that the eldest brother has to face are greater than Lloyd and the others, so Qia also has a share.
A gift for you."
"Is it possible?" Rean confirmed, "Although I think your gift will definitely help me, if my goal is achieved, Crossbell may never have a chance to be independent."
As soon as these words came out, Lloyd, Ellie, and Arios all changed their expressions.
"But if it cannot be realized, many people will die, thousands, tens of thousands, or even more."
Chia explained gently, explaining it to Rean, and also to Lloyd and others.
Rean knew that she must have seen it. She saw the war that swept across the Western Continent. The total number of troops invested by both sides was millions. Even if the war only lasted for a few hours, the casualties caused would not be small.
This is also the fundamental reason why Rean wants to reverse the future no matter what.
"And -" Qia said again, "he believes that big brother with such good wishes will definitely make the world a better place, and the same goes for Crossbell. I want to take a look at the future created by big brother.
I want to see this beautiful world with her."
"Her?" It was not Rean who spoke, but Lloyd.
As the person closest to Qia, he actually didn't know who "she" was, because Qia would never refer to someone in such a vague way.
This made Lloyd curious, but also a little frustrated - Qiya has a secret and will hide it from me.
Qiya did not answer Lloyd's doubts and continued: "Qiya's gift actually comes from that power. Please accept it, big brother."
Li En no longer hesitated after hearing this: "I'm looking forward to it. What kind of gift is it?"
"The gift is related to big brother's special ability. I know that big brother has the ability to summon heroes from the past. Please summon him now."
"Summoning of Heroic Spirits? Here."
Rean was stunned.
It’s not surprising that Qia knows the existence of the Heroic Spirit Summons, and her ability to see cause and effect is truly omnipotent.
Rean was curious as to why Qia would make such a request at this time. Could her gift be a certain hero from the past?
"Yes." Qiya affirmed, "Please believe me, brother, she will definitely be able to help him, and I will definitely be able to call her out."
Rean has no doubt about this.
Because fate is a kind of cause and effect. If you miss a certain point, you may miss a lifetime.
As the highest-ranking being in terms of cause and effect, Rean wouldn't be surprised even if Qia said that I can summon whomever I want.
Qiya's solemn attitude and her willingness to use her spiritual power to see the cause and effect also let Li En know that this person was no small matter.
After thinking for a moment, Li En decided to believe Qia.
It would be best if it really helps as Qiya said.
If not, Rean can still return a favor to Qia - even if there are shortcomings, Qia helped Rean see the cause and effect, and Rean will not forget this kindness.
"Emma, come and help me."
"OK."
The preparations for summoning the servants were handed over to Emma last night. As a witch who specializes in manipulating spiritual power, she is more professional than Rean.
Find the right spiritual node.
Use EP filler to characterize the summoning circle.
After injecting spiritual power, the next step is to summon.
Before the summons, Rean secretly muttered to Caster: "I'm sorry."
They were originally promised to give priority to heroes related to them when summoning, but they didn't expect that something like this would happen.
Caster, who appeared as Ysera, shook his head and smiled.
Since they have decided to give up the leadership to Rean, they will not regret it. Besides, that is the person appointed by the Supreme Treasure, so everyone is curious.
After receiving understanding, Rean began to sing.
"───Declaration."
"You are beneath me, and I entrust my fate to your sword."
"Follow the call of the Holy Grail, follow its will, and follow the laws of nature. You will answer immediately."
"I swear here, I am the one who only does good in the world, and I am the one who will eradicate the evil in the world."
"The three great speech spirits that haunt you come from the Wheel of Suppression, the guardian of Libra!"
According to convention, during the chanting process, the surging magic power will be exchanged for strong winds and thunder and lightning, opening up the channel between the present world and the Seat of Heroic Spirits, allowing the hero to descend.
But this time, nothing happened.
There was no strong wind or thunder, and even the magic circle infused with spiritual power was not lit up.
Some are just dead silence.
"Failed?" Emma blurted out. She was like this when she tried to summon the servant last night.
"Is it true that two riders in a contract is the limit?" Rean's eyebrows knitted together.
"No. Please try a few more times, big brother. Her existence is very special. She is not a hero, and she is not in the gathering place of heroes. I need to let my voice and prayers pass through, to a place where even the causal line cannot
The other side of arrival.”
With that said, Qia walked to the other side of the summoning array, where the catalyst was originally placed as an altar, and stood on it herself.
