"You raced through the dense forest toward Londinium, as silent and stealthy as a moving shadow."
"The thought of the witch waiting for your irrigation at home made your heart fly to the castle."
"Just as you were about to leave this forest,"
"Suddenly, you smelled a rich fragrance."
"Is this... the scent of flowers?"
"Noticing this, you abruptly stopped, your expression solemn as you looked ahead."
"Hello there, Alvin-kun..."
The moonlight shone, the shadows of the trees swayed.
In the deep forest, a gentle male voice suddenly sounded.
Accompanied by crimson petals falling without warning, a man in a silver robe walked out from the shower of flowers.
Bathed in the bright moonlight, his white hair seemed to have a rainbow-like, brilliant color.
"Merlin..."
Seeing the simulator's prompt, Su Shu, who had already heard Morgan's description, recognized this scum of Britain at first sight.
The boy's hand quietly rested on the hilt of his sword.
...So I've finally been discovered?
In fact, Su Shu was surprised he had been able to stay by Artoria's side for so many months.
Finally, Merlin had come for him.
And he didn't think he was just here to discuss his student's educational policies.
"Well, well~ since you know me, that makes things easier. I was just worrying about how to introduce myself...
"Oh, such a young boy? You can call me Big Brother Merlin~"
With a gentle smile on his face, the magus looked at the solemn silver-haired boy before him.
A mist quietly spread in his violet eyes.
Then, an expression of utter surprise appeared on Merlin's face.
"Hmm? Why...
"How... how is it that my Clairvoyance cannot observe your existence?"
"Interesting... very interesting! Let me think... I see, I think I understand! Alvin-kun... you are—you are a person who should not exist in this world!"
Saying such inexplicable things, the magus's voice gradually became high-pitched and excited.
"Ahh—! No wonder! No wonder that intermittent palpitation and premonition, so that's what it meant!
"A variable...
"Like a butterfly flapping its wings, a tiny gust of air will eventually stir up a huge storm.
"Everything in this world has been swept up by you, this variable. Observations are no longer reliable, prophecies are no longer accurate, the flow of fate has become chaotic!
"Ahh—this wonderful inability to predict the future... it's, it's simply fantastic!"
"Interesting... how interesting! In fact, Alvin-kun, your appearance is simply too interesting!"
Like a spoiled child opening a door and suddenly discovering a relative's room full of exquisite anime figures, Merlin, whose life motto was to have fun, felt a rare sense of joy.
This Clairvoyance, a miracle that could see all of this world, was an outstanding talent he was born with.
Because if he wanted to, he could see everything.
Therefore, this island, a remnant of the Age of Gods, often made the incubus feel bored.
Playing with women was just a pastime.
Would a certain blonde vampire find the delicious little bread he ate every day "fun"?
It was merely to satisfy his appetite.
However, at this moment, this Clairvoyance could not observe the boy before him at all.
At such a close distance, the other's Presence Concealment could not possibly reach the level of a Grand.
That was the pinnacle of the Assassin class, a skill only the King of Assassins could possess.
Then, there was only one answer left...
That is—the person before him did not belong to "this world."
Not belonging to this world, thus the Clairvoyance that observed all of this world naturally could not observe his figure!
"Spiritron Dive? Imaginary Number Submersion? Or a great magic that can cross time and space, a miracle...
"What is your identity? And what method did you use to come to this era?"
One question after another was thrown out.
The magus paced back and forth excitedly, his excitement plain to see.
Unfortunately, this enthusiasm was met with only the boy's cold reply.
"None of your damn business."
Su Shu, of course, would not answer.
From these fragmented words, he already understood what kind of madness the other was spouting.
Is "Clairvoyance" that common?
Merlin actually had the same type of talent.
But his eyes could not see him.
Although he didn't know the specific reason, from this detail alone, this sage had immediately seen through his identity as a transmigrator.
This guy was trickier than he had imagined.
"You can call me by my name, which means you already know everything. You didn't block my path just to rave like a madman here, did you, Merlin?"
"Tsk, don't be so distant, Alvin-kun~"
The magus smiled and walked toward him.
Then, his footsteps stopped perfectly just outside the boy's shadow.
Seeing this, Su Shu's pupils couldn't help but narrow.
If the other had taken just one more step, his Blade of Shadow would have launched a flurry of instant slashes.
However, even this imperceptible flow of magical energy was actually detected by Merlin...
And it was true.
Looking at the exaggerated quality of the magic circuits all over Su Shu's body, in front of this great sage, the immature Ultimate Life Form was as transparent as his own familiars, with no secrets to hide.
"Tsk tsk... this exaggerated body, this dark-attribute magical energy, and this intoxicating face..."
Merlin looked the boy up and down and instantly saw the truth.
He said with a smile.
"—I see, you are Vortigern's child..."
His voice fell.
Su Shu narrowed his eyes slightly.
The magus continued on his own.
"Vortigern doesn't know any magic, and no woman can bear his dragon's blood... I see, it's Lady Morgan's handiwork?
"Wow... the more I look, the more surprises I find. What a breathtaking masterpiece.
"Your performance is even on par with Lily's... no, you even surpass her!
"It seems I've really made the witch very angry..."
Faced with this masterpiece named the Ultimate Life Form, Merlin gave a sincere compliment, the smile on his face as warm as a spring breeze.
But Su Shu felt no emotion in that smile.
It contained no emotion, but was rather like a mask.
Something constructed just because people like smiles.
It was filled with a thick, non-human sense of incongruity.
Morgan was right.
This guy wasn't human...
The moonlight was lonely, the shadows of the trees swayed.
At this moment, although almost all his secrets had been exposed, Su Shu's mind was not in the slightest bit of panic.
A sword to cut the flesh, a heart to cut the soul. Having trained his Mind's Eye, he would seek that sliver of life even in the most desperate situations.
The more dangerous the moment, the calmer his heart became.
The dormant shadow also became more silent, more sharp.
"You've seen through everything, so are you satisfied?"
Even with his secrets exposed, there was no panic.
The silver-haired boy's voice was cold and flat.
"If you're satisfied, can you get lost? You white-haired bastard—"
Calling the sage a white-haired bastard upon their first meeting!
But the one called a white-haired bastard, the smile on his face remained gentle and warm.
"Ahh~ even your nickname for me is so in sync with my own thoughts, Alvin-kun."
