Chapter 17: Chapter 17
[You began to try to instill in Elysia the concepts of "life and death" and "parting", but for some reason, every second before you were about to discuss this topic with her, originally she is quite obedient in front of you, and she will find out all kinds of reasons to run away from your eyes]
[You are a little helpless, although you have not doubted Elysia because of this, but after such a situation, you can understand that you are indeed a little too hasty]
[After all, not everyone is the same as you, who have been accustomed to seeing death at a very young age]
[Elysia is not a magician either, she is different from you, and under normal circumstances, she does not need to accept the concept of "death" at a young age]
[You can't help but recall what Kiritsugu once said to you]
[Since you have learned magic, there is the possibility of death, and at the same time, when necessary, you will have to fight with other magicians]
[As a magician, the first thing to do well is to accept death]
[But after saying these words, Kiritsugu also said it to you more than once - for a person, that is a very sad thing]
[At that time, you couldn't fully understand what Kiritsugu meant, but after you also experienced the life of having a child, you finally understood]
[Perhaps, Kiritsugu at that time, like himself now, did not want his children to have such an awareness]
[Moreover, even if she is instilled with these concepts now, it is too early for Elysia, who is only five years old.]
[In the end, you convinced yourself and temporarily let go of the idea of continuing to discuss these things with Elysia]
[You have returned to your past life, and when you completely let go of your plan to discuss these matters with Elysia, this child seems to have noticed something, with a bright expression on his face, becoming more and more unscrupulous she's sticking more to you]
[The simulated object is more attached to you]
[The simulation time is extended by one year]
[In this way, time continued to pass quickly in a peaceful and peaceful atmosphere]
[After two years, Elysia, who is about to reach the age of seven, finally surpassed you in size]
(T/N: Shirou is 7 years old physically)
[The moment she realized that she was taller than you, Elysia was extremely excited. ]
"I'm finally taller than my mother!"
In the kitchen at noon, Elysia stood behind Emiya Shiro, with a pure smile on her lovely face. Standing on tiptoe, she restlessly stroked Emiya Shirou's hair with her white and immature palms.
"Yes, yes, our lovely Ellie has finally grown taller than me. Congratulations, congratulations."
Shirou Emiya, who has long been accustomed to little girls calling himself "Mom" in private, holds a kitchen knife, With a face full of resignation, he was cutting a piece of ribs on the chopping board. On the left side of the ribs was a small pile of minced garlic, and on the right side was a small bowl of pre-processed sauce.
"Okay, I'm happy and happy, it's time to leave behind me, I can't cook if you stand here like this."
Elysia couldn't help pouting her mouth in dissatisfaction, "I've already grown taller than my mother, why does my mother still treat me like a child? Hmph! I'm angry!"
"It's useless to be angry, No matter how tall you are, with me, you will always be just a little girl who can't grow up." Emiya Shirou turned his face sideways, looked sideways at himself, then twitched his eyebrows, with a disdainful expression he looked at Elysia who had a smug expression on her face, "If you think that you can stand up to me if you are taller than me, I advise you to give up this idea."
"Huh~~"
Elysia put her hands on her hips, and shook her head, but couldn't help opening one of her eyes, staring straight at Emiya Shirou's back which was not wide at all, and suddenly became dazed.
"Okay, if you're free, help me light up the gas stove over there." Emiya Shirou vigorously chopped the ribs on the chopping board, and then put them all into the pressure cooker that had been filled with water. "If you keep being behind me like this I can't move even if I want to, and you don't want to wait so you'll have no lunch."
"..."
"Ellie?"
After waiting for a long time without getting a response, Emiya Shirou couldn't help sighing He took a breath, put down the kitchen knife, turned around, and said Elysia's name.
"It's all because you just stand here..."
Pa, before Emiya Shirou finished what he wanted to say, his face was suddenly slapped by a pair of hands.
"?"
Before the unsuspecting Emiya Shirou could react, a shadow suddenly enveloped his forehead.
Bang!!!
Accompanied by a sound that sounded painful.
The forehead collided with the opponent's forehead fiercely without hindrance.
"Wow - it hurts -!"
Memories danced wildly in his field of vision.
Emiya Shirou clutched his forehead, squatted down with stars in his eyes, gasping for air uncontrollably.
"What are you... thinking!"
Shirou Emiya's question was destined to be unanswerable.
Because, after hitting him hard, Elysia ran out of the kitchen as if fleeing.
She returned to her bedroom, closed the door with a bang, then leaned her back against the bedroom door, clutching her red forehead like Shirou Emiya, and slipped off the wooden door bit by bit.
…When I was in the kitchen just now, standing behind Emiya Shirou, looking at the back that is far from being broad, two extremely different opposite emotions suddenly came from the depths of my heart. Restrained, it jumped into Elysia's mind.
"Hate...why would I..."
The cheeks on both sides became more rosy and the forehead that was flushed by herself.
The heart beats fast.
... She has grown bigger than her "mother" who has always taken care of her. The moment she realized this, a huge fear exploded in Elysia's chest.
After all, if "mother" is still the same as now and will never grow up, then, in the days to come, the distance between "mother" and "myself" will undoubtedly become more and more distant.
However, before the emotions of fear and sadness completely engulfed all her thoughts, another stronger desire extinguished those emotions of fear all at once.
If one day she will grow bigger than that little "mother", then, can she use greater power than "mother" to keep him by her side?
A wish to be with "Mom" all the time.
"Mom" may leave my reality someday in the future.
When the two conflicted and began to conflict, Elysia could only choose one behavior.
— Just thinking about it.
Distorted desire flashed across Elysia's chest.
However, this distorted desire was instantly suppressed by Elysia herself.
No.
"Mother" had never taught her such a thing.
It is wrong to force others to act.
This distorted desire is undoubtedly a mistake.
However, even though the knowledge I have learned all this time clearly told Elysia that it was a wrong desire—the desire itself still took advantage of the void and entered her flawless heart, and took root in the deepest part of her heart.
