Chapter 203 The Tragic Worldlines of the Type-Moon World (Second Update)
As the mist rose, Su Han put away the two cards. He gazed at Ilya, his voice as calm as ever, "Then... Ilya, your future begins."
A terrifying yet magnificent river of fate erupted, with countless scenes flowing through it.
Ilya's pupils dilated. Although she had witnessed the condensation of the River of Fate before, the feeling of seeing someone else's river of fate was completely different from seeing her own.
However, as she looked, Ilya's expression changed drastically. "How could this be?"
Although it was fleeting, she still saw herself dressed in strange clothes, battling various enemies... and even, at the end, it seemed as if she had traveled to another world...
With a crisp boom, the plot star condensed above Ilya's head. Ilya looked up and stared at it, her expression complex, a mixture of joy, doubt, and apprehension.
The others in the Hall of Mist also fell silent, lost in thought.
A bronze chair, shrouded in mist, stood where Aizen, who had died once more on the day of the final battle, had appeared. He steadied himself slightly and sensed that something was amiss.
After looking around, Aizen immediately noticed that two new people had arrived at the council, and said, "Are there new people in the council? Welcome."
"Your welcome is long overdue," Accelerator said abruptly.
"Don't say that. Even if it's one in the morning, it's still my sincere blessing." Aizen said with a smile.
Accelerator looked somewhat disdainful, but didn't say much. He then looked at Illya, his mind racing. "Although she's just an elementary school student... but looking at the cards she conjured and the scenes flashing in the River of Fate... her background should be the same as that of Illya from the Fourth Holy Grail War? A parallel world?"
“I only have one question,” Xiaoyu raised her hand. “I’ve seen Mr. Waver’s story stars, but the council chairman said that Miss Ilya’s world is another parallel world? So… what about the story stars after Mr. Waver’s original world? Or is there nothing after that?”
Xiaoyu had initially thought that the Fourth Holy Grail War was over once it ended. However, after seeing the parallel world story stars that Illya had condensed, she suddenly realized that things were not so simple.
“Chairman,” Tony Stark said solemnly, “can you reveal anything about the aftermath of the Fourth Holy Grail War? Or do we need Mr. Waver to pay us again?”
"Huh?!" Weber paused, his expression changing drastically. "Please... I've already given everything I could to the council chairman."
Even if you say that to me now, I have nothing to offer.
“…Useless.” Madara Uchiha coldly uttered two words.
Su Han glanced at the people present, recalling the story of Ilya from another timeline, and sighed inwardly, but his voice remained calm, "I do not recommend that you switch to the other timeline."
Before anyone could ask a question, Su Han tapped the back of his chair lightly with his finger.
Countless vivid illusions appeared. They were images of Ilya dying on different timelines.
They might die from having their heart ripped out by Gilgamesh, or from dying as a vessel for the Lesser Grail... or from donning the Garment of Heaven, becoming the key to the Grail, and dying while rescuing Shirou... Even those who survive the Holy Grail War will eventually die from exhaustion due to their physical constitution...
Countless illusions vanished, leaving the misty space utterly silent.
Ilya's mouth gaped open, her body trembled, and her eyes were filled with confusion and fear. "Will I die...? Will I experience one of those strange ways of dying, and then die?"
"No way." Tony Stark blurted out instinctively, even though he was also deeply shaken by the images, it was still the first thing he said.
"Didn't the Speaker of the Council say that your world is a parallel world? And didn't we just see that the plot of the stars unfolded from your perspective... No matter how you look at it, it's impossible for the heroine of Destiny to die as well?"
"It's really hard to say," Sawada Tsunayoshi muttered to himself.
"Shut up." Tony Stark glared fiercely at Sawada Tsunayoshi.
Even though Sawada Tsunayoshi couldn't see it because of the fog, he was still startled by Tony Stark's stern tone.
Tony Stark gazed intently at Illya and said, "Even if you are truly that unfortunate, joining the Council still offers the possibility of turning things around."
"No matter how tragic the fate of the original world was... after joining the council, that tragic fate will be severed. After all... the council chairman is the wheel of fate."
"Huh?!" Ilya froze on the bronze chair, glancing timidly at the throne before realizing Su Han's figure had vanished. "The Wheel of Fate...?"
Judging from the name, could the chairman of this mysterious council be the controller and ruler of fate? But then again, considering that He can manifest the future... it seems quite normal for Him to have such an identity.
"The Speaker of the Council has left." Ying Zheng's voice was calm; he was not surprised at all. He glanced at the many council members around him. "What are your thoughts on what just happened?"
"Considering the dark tone of the Holy Grail War in Waver's world, I have reason to believe that the next Holy Grail War in Waver's world will also be tragic... The scenes of Illya's continuous deaths prove this point." Conan said calmly.
"But why did Ilya die so many times?" Madara Uchiha frowned. He couldn't understand it.
“It should be, a parallel world,” Weber suddenly said. “Not just Weber’s world… there are many other scenes from parallel worlds.”
The Ilya in those images had subtle differences in appearance. However, the illusions shifted so quickly that careless viewers would easily overlook them…
However, Weber, with his discerning eye, noticed this.
"Different ways to die in parallel worlds?" Tony Stark fell silent, then gave a bitter smile. The Holy Grail War... that world called Type-Moon truly has too many tragedies.
Tony Stark seemed to understand somewhat why Kiritsugu Emiya had chosen to be an ally of justice, even though Tony Stark still didn't approve of Kiritsugu's final decision.
"So, little Ilya, don't panic too much." Whitebeard stroked his beard and suddenly laughed. "There's no point in discussing this now... Let's finish watching the story of your world's Starry Sky first, and then we can talk about other things."

Or, if you're truly afraid... you can acknowledge me as your father. At that time, I will protect you. Even if someone tries to kill you... I will take care of it, gurara-la-la.”
Even though she was still uneasy, Ilya still retorted softly after hearing this, "But I have a father... Kiritsugu! Although he is often away on business trips and I don't know what he is busy with... I have no intention of acknowledging anyone else as my father."
