'I'm also an editor!'
'I'm also an editor!'
This was Iwamoto Yu's desperate cry...
"Well... okay, I happen to be preparing a new manga recently. If you have the time, you can come over and see how it goes."
"Huh? Really?" Iwamoto Yu was momentarily stunned. Did he actually have something to do?
"Well," Kazuya chuckled, "I felt that you were all the way in Tokyo before, so I didn't call you over. But since you have this idea... well, we can discuss the next manga project together."
"Yes!" Iwamoto Yu shouted with delight. That's right... he had already said it: "I won't let you down, Kurokawa-sensei!"
With that, he looked at the manuscript in his hand. "Once I submit this to the chief editor, I'll come right over!"
"Sure, but don't disturb my sister, and keep it down a bit. Look, you scared Kohana so much, she jumped out of her skin," Kazuya smiled and pointed to Kohana, who had been sleeping but was now startled and tense.
...
Buzz—
Iwamoto Yu was on his way back to Tokyo.
He had no idea that a certain presence had already fixated on him, or rather, on the folder he was carrying.
"There is no mystery in this world."
This was something Kazuya had confirmed multiple times.
The only "magus" who appeared was a street magician...
So, he had no reservations about creating the manga "Fate/Zero."
He didn't care whether Tohsaka Tokiomi in that Type-Moon world knew about the Matou family's magecraft or not. After all, he had a good relationship with the current Tohsaka Tokiomi in this world. It wouldn't be good if his manga somehow damaged their relationship.
Anyway, Tohsaka Tokiomi had been the one who had helped him when he first arrived here.
So he made some minor improvements, such as clearly indicating in his Fate/Zero manga that Tohsaka Tokiomi had no knowledge of the Matou family's dark magecraft, believing that this could bring a brighter future for Sakura.
For example, during the battle between Tohsaka Tokiomi and Matou Kariya, he used psychological descriptions to convey the fact that Tohsaka Tokiomi was lying to Matou Kariya.
After all, he didn't know that the next Holy Grail War would be in ten years, thinking it would be in sixty years. At that time, how could his two daughters possibly collide with each other? He didn't care about what originally triggered Matou Kariya; in this setting, it was "to stimulate Matou Kariya," so he said that.
As for why he didn't suspect the Matou family's magecraft when he saw Matou Kariya's magecraft?
Well, that could be attributed to the tradition of the Tohsaka family— "Always dropping the ball at critical moments."
Yeah, that made sense.
After settling these matters, he drew "Fate/Zero" without any psychological barriers... As for Emiya Kiritsugu, whom he had met in London?
You see, he wasn't an ordinary person now; he was a Ripple user.
He had transcended ordinary humans and, in this world without mysteries, no one could rival him anymore, right? Even if that battle had taken place in a dream...
Furthermore, a assassin like him wouldn't waste time reading manga, especially someone like Emiya Kiritsugu... reading manga? Just think about it; the art style wouldn't fit.
But—
These were all Kazuya's thoughts.
In reality, there were still mysteries in this world.
Some entities had already sensed it—the mystery concealed within an ordinary folder that could potentially disrupt the entire world!
Mystery.
It had been hidden very well.
This could be seen from Kazuya's side.
He had come into contact with mysteries several times, but each time, it had been concealed and passed over. From initially being skeptical to now, he was confident that there were no mysteries in this world; it was an entirely ordinary world.
This...
He even had thoughts about potentially turning "Fate/Zero" into a live-action movie in the future and maybe asking for help from Tohsaka Tokiomi and others... although he didn't know if these aristocratic types would be willing to help.
But, indeed, he had considered such matters.
Now, however, there were indeed mysteries in this world...
In this kind of world—what would happen if "Fate/Zero" passed the serialization meeting and was published?
Quite simply, it would disrupt the mysteries.
It might become the catalyst for further diminishment of the mysteries.
Of course... none of this mattered to the Counter Force, Gaia or Alaya.
It was to prevent these guys from causing trouble. For example, in the Fate series, the "All The World's Evils" within the Holy Grail; without the existence of mysteries, could these people create such a thing?
So.
This presence dissipated after a moment.
Iwamoto Yu, no... no one noticed this presence.
However—
Let's not talk about disrupting the entire world... once this "Fate/Zero" was released, the upcoming Fourth Holy Grail War might very well become the final edition of the Holy Grail War... or rather, the last official one.
Currently, there were still two to three years left until the start of the Holy Grail War.
At this point, "Fate/Zero" hadn't even started serialization yet.
If the time dragged on... by the time this manga became known worldwide, spreading into the realm of magus, discovered by the big shots of that otherworld...
What would happen to the Holy Grail in Fuyuki City?
The world, at this moment, had been thrown into chaos—
Several entities with high-level Clairvoyance, capable of seeing the future, clearly noticed the changes in the world.
Originally, the future was known to them, even if Kurokawa Kazuya was an unknown variable. Even with just one unknown, it only slightly altered the equation, and the result was still 1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1=9, with 9 being their fixed destiny. It became X+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1=8+X. And now...
Because of this manga, the destinies of countless people were suddenly affected, and the future turned into X+W+E+R+S+F+G+H+B=?????
WTF????
How do you even calculate that? How do you see this future? It's incomprehensible!
