Using the computational power of the Divine Body Barrier, and using illusions to build a mental stage, finally, using the Third Magic's soul materialization to fill in the loopholes, Moran stripped away everything related to mystery from the Kuruoka couple's souls, retaining their foundation as human beings.
Then, he threw them into the stage he had built, allowing Tsubaki and the Kuruoka couple to experience a life unrelated to mystery.
In a way, this could be considered a simulation.
However, this was not based on a simulator; it was a simulation where Moran built the stage himself, allowing the actors to perform freely.
Based on Moran's nearly thousands of years of experience, coupled with these heavyweight mysteries, building a simulation stage that could immerse ordinary people was not difficult at all.
Taking something Moran had heard of as an example—Chaldea and the Atlas Institute's Spiritron Computer.
These two Mystic Codes could achieve a certain range of simulation effects.
Their effectiveness could be described as time reversal.
As long as a certain point in time was determined and input into the device, they could bring the target into the stage in a form similar to the unfolding of a bounded field, using the vast amount of information they possessed.
When something false becomes real to a certain extent, whether it is a fake becomes less important, because for the person involved, the experience within is undeniably real.
Now, Moran used the machine god technology of the Greek Age of Gods as the core, and had the Moon Cell help him perform the simulation calculations.
The effect would not be much worse than the two mentioned above.
At least, giving the Kuruoka family a simulation was enough.
The setting Moran edited for the three was—the Kuruoka family, stripped of everything related to mystery, simply living in Japan as ordinary people.
Moran's first action was to press the "play" button from the beginning of the Kuruoka couple's birth, allowing them to experience life on this stage based on the settings he had written, relying on their own will.
Just like the simulations Moran had experienced, the only arrangement Moran made was that the Kuruoka couple would inevitably become husband and wife, and would inevitably give birth to a child named Tsubaki Kuruoka.
Other than that, everything would develop with the stage.
He didn't like to personally intervene in the story like Merlin did, because the bad results were right there.
Until now, Merlin was still reflecting in the tower.
Creating such a self-built simulation, Moran also experienced what it felt like to be God.
After setting up the above, Moran planned to throw the souls of the Kuruoka family into the Divine Body Barrier.
"Big brother, are you a magician…?"
A voice rang in his ear.
During the process of building the stage, Tsubaki Kuruoka's soul saw Moran working diligently.
Her soul had been extracted by Moran and placed in the Divine Body Barrier's calculation system.
Looking at Moran, who was scattering brilliant starlight with every gesture in the calculation space, she was quite surprised, forgetting the painful memories before she fell unconscious, forgetting the calamity of death that caused all living beings to grieve.
Here, she was just a little girl, looking at Moran creating a "world" with great surprise.
"Hehe, I am indeed a magician."
Moran showed a faint smile.
Unlike his usual calmness, he showed a kind attitude towards the little girl who was looking at him with admiration.
"Wow! Someone even more amazing than a magus! The one who turned Cinderella into a princess!"
"Hahahaha, that's right."
"Then can I learn magic from you? For my mom and dad, I want to become a magician!"
At this point, the girl still yearned for her parents' approval.
Moran just smiled gently and said, "It's possible, but before that, let's play a little game first. I will use magic later. If you still want to become a magician after experiencing all of this, then I will agree. How about it?"
"…Hmm…that way…can I learn magic?"
"Yes, that's right."
"If it's just waiting for a while, then Tsubaki can endure it, but you must teach me magic later, big brother!"
Tsubaki was still negotiating terms with Moran here, just like a little adult, which made Moran not know whether to laugh or cry.
If the old men in the Clock Tower had the opportunity to come into contact with magic, they would probably sell their entire family to agree, without even thinking about negotiating terms.
"Of course. A magician never breaks a promise."
"Hmm…I won't have to wait long, right? If I wait too long, my mom and dad might worry…"
"It won't be long, like a dream. When you wake up, you will find that the world will become the familiar appearance you know."
Moran's words were as peaceful as a spring breeze.
For some reason, Tsubaki felt a deep sleepiness, and the surroundings felt as warm as the sun, warm and comforting, making her want to fall asleep like this forever.
"Sleep…it's quite nice to indulge in dreams occasionally. At least, this is a reality that belongs only to you. Whether it's a beautiful dream or a nightmare, it's far better than the cruel reality."
Thus, the magician's stage was completed.
Moran let the three souls throw themselves into it.
On the other side, the opera of reality continued, and the stage of the Holy Grail War was still being performed.
Snowfield West, forest area.
"I thought she would rush over to find me…but the sun, Utu, has already risen high. I still haven't seen her take action. Even though her close friend has been defeated, I didn't expect her to be so cautious."
In this real Snowfield, a beautiful voice that seemed like it shouldn't exist here echoed through the forest.
The Einzbern's homunculus.
No, it should be the homunculus possessed by Ishtar. She was currently walking through the forest with Haruri.
After using various schemes to plot against Gilgamesh and avoiding the Pale Rider's calamity of death, Ishtar came here with Haruri.
"Originally, I was thinking that no matter what, I would eliminate that rotten thing from this world.
It seems that before Gugalanna can take action, it will collapse on its own.
Hehe, as expected, gloomy guys with similar natures to Ereshkigal are just supporting characters who go through the motions. A shining goddess like me is the heroine who is suitable to walk under the spotlight~"
Ishtar said, flicking her hair.
No matter how casual or from what angle you admire her, she gives people a picturesque impression.
Beauty is no longer applicable to this woman.
