    Chapter 201 Free Will!

    Where did the problem lie?

    The Spirit that suddenly appeared during the day, the Evil Spirit that Ryuudou Issei encountered, and that inexplicable sense of unease…

    Logically, Kuzuki’s composure had reached the level of Mount Tai crumbling before him without changing his expression, a deer passing by his left side without him even blinking, and even if World War III were to break out the next moment, plunging humanity into the apocalypse, he wouldn’t be overly anxious, but rather confident and prepared to handle it; yet, he was now shaken by 2 unexpected events, which was utterly abnormal…

    Kuzuki didn’t have the mind to read, and after flipping through the Assassination Book multiple times, he casually placed it aside.

    Just like how an Ordinary Person could only see the tip of the iceberg above the water, while a Diver could see the enormous size of the iceberg hidden beneath the surface.

    Kuzuki, with Spiritual Awareness far sharper than that of an Ordinary Person, could deeply sense that… something extremely dangerous was approaching.

    Unable to resist, he picked up the Assassination Book again and began to flip through it casually.

    Kuzuki’s body froze, and he raised the Assassination Book in his hand, his eyes becoming sharp and serious.

    He had been flipping through it since earlier…

    Was it the influence of the Assassination Book on me, or was it the warning from my Martial Artist’s Spiritual Awareness?

    Kuzuki thought about the problem, his mind calming down, and he began to carefully examine the contents of the Assassination Book; suddenly, his movements halted, and his line of sight stopped at a particular piece of information.

    Found it…

    [Fate/stay night: Variable-1%]

    Right on the first page of [Dark Flower (Secret Mission)], it clearly displayed that in the World Kuzuki was in, a Variable had appeared.

    When he moved his finger to it, the Assassination Book gave him different information from the other options.

    ···Error?

    Unable to traverse···

    It wasn’t a pop-up prompt, but rather a feeling he sensed in his consciousness; Kuzuki closed the Assassination Book and exited its space.

    Now that the source of the problem had been found, he had to consider how to solve it.

    Other than the anomalies in The World or the Monsters, Kuzuki could ignore them, but the current The World he lived in must not be disrupted!

    Then, Kuzuki began searching in Fuyuki City, trying to find the source of the anomalies.

    He worked as a Teacher during the day and transformed into a Ghost at night, wandering around Fuyuki City.

    [Was it because the 1% Variable was insufficient to produce significant anomalies, or was the location of the anomaly not in Fuyuki City?]

    The former was still manageable, but the latter would be troublesome, as the Earth was vast, and Kuzuki couldn’t determine the location of the anomaly.

    As Kuzuki stood on the rooftop of the Shinto building at night, seeing a certain priest wandering around the streets, he gave up on his nightly strolls and Spirit-slaying activities in Fuyuki City.

    Kotomine Kirei, as an Agent of the Holy Church, would naturally find exorcisms to be child’s play, so Kuzuki decided to leave the never-ending stream of Ghosts in Fuyuki City to him, after all, he was a professional.

    In November, the contents of the Assassination Book changed once again.

    Fate/stay night: Variable-2%

    The Variable had increased again…

    Kuzuki compared the two instances of Variable increase and judged that the time difference between each increase was negligible.

    “An increase of 1% every 2 months, which means the anomaly started to manifest 4 months ago…” Kuzuki’s gaze turned icy.

    Four months ago was when he Restarted the World Line!

    “Let’s observe for a while longer, and if the Variable increases again in 2 months, then my hypothesis will be confirmed.”

    As expected, 2 months later, the contents of the Assassination Book changed once again.

    The Variable had increased to 3%.

    Indeed……

    Restarting the World Line had actually caused this The World to develop Variables and start producing anomalies.

    Kuzuki suddenly felt like he was trapped in a complex web, as if the more he tried to avoid a certain event, the more his actions would inadvertently lead to its occurrence, like a self-fulfilling prophecy.

    “Determinism, huh…” Kuzuki’s eyes hardened at that moment: “Too bad I’m a free will advocate! Only believe in ‘free will’!”

    Tragedy happens, he stops the tragedy.

    Anomaly arises, he crushes the anomaly!

    If Variable Source isn’t located in Fuyuki, but somewhere on Earth or even off-world, then Kuzuki would only have one way to solve it……a method he’s never tried before.

    From experience with multiple Dark Flower (Secret Mission) Missions, when Kuzuki travels, Assassination Book generally throws him near the location where a Dark Flower (Secret Mission) can be completed.

    So, if he uses this, during a Dark Flower (Secret Mission) Mission, Kuzuki enters Assassination Book again, takes on another Dark Flower (Secret Mission), what would happen?

    It would be like Kuzuki first travels to another The World, then travels back, using Assassination Book’s teleporting characteristic to lock onto Variable Source.

    “Can’t teleport within this The World, then go to another The World.”

    Kuzuki flipped Assassination Book to the third page, his eyes scanning the list of The World.

    “Besides, it’s the perfect opportunity to complete the second Target, and make contact with Time or Space’s Strength.” Obtaining that kind of Ability in the Tsukihime Universe is difficult, but in other The World, it’s different.

    Some The World make it incredibly easy to access such High Floor level Strength.

    Possessing Assassination Book, Kuzuki can accommodate the different Strength Systems of various The World, so the difference in difficulty to obtain Strength doesn’t exist for him.

    This method just requires Assassination Book Permission to unlock……because before unlocking, there aren’t any extra Dark Flower (Secret Mission) Missions, you can only complete them one by one.

    Right now, this method is just a guess and hasn’t been verified.

    What if traveling to another The World makes it impossible to return?

    That’s a possibility.

    After exiting Assassination BookSpace, Kuzuki still hadn’t made a decision.

    He wanted to try first if he could solve Variable Source without relying on Assassination Book.

    Since Assassination Book was upgraded, each trip became somewhat uncontrollable.

    Coming back from Tianlong World caused him to miss 4 years of time, and coming back from Doomsday World caused him to miss a night of time.

    The time it took to return through travel became irregular.

    Plus, this time he was trying to verify a new method.

    What if time displacement occurred, and he was sent to decades or even centuries in the future?

    Considering all of this, Kuzuki didn’t immediately set off to travel.

    Instead, during the winter break, he bought plane tickets to several countries and took a rough tour of Asia, Europe, and America, only visiting major cities.

    London.

    Kuzuki sat in a roadside cafe across from Clock Tower, absentmindedly sipping his coffee.

    He had run through all the cities without anything noteworthy happening.

    Although he had encountered some unusual Life forms, Kuzuki couldn’t be sure if those Life forms were caused by Variable Source.

    Kuzuki also tried to obtain some information through The World’s channels, but the internet wasn’t very developed at the time, and the information was too scattered.

    After sifting through it for a long time, he couldn’t find anything useful.

    Looking at Clock Tower, Kuzuki considered whether he should communicate with Mage’s Association and exchange some Intelligence.

    After all, Mage’s Association is one of the two strongest Organizations in this The World.

    Their understanding of The World’s dynamics must far exceed Kuzuki’s.

    As an Ordinary Person who wasn’t even a Magus, those high-and-mighty Magus probably wouldn’t even listen to Kuzuki’s words.

    “Hmm… let’s give it a try. It would be great if I could meet Gemstone Old Man.”

    As the second true magic user, Gemstone Old Man has the Ability to travel through Parallel Worlds.

    Perhaps he could be of help in this matter.

    Kuzuki stood up and walked towards the direction of the Clock Tower.

    As he moved forward step by step, his physique gradually became stronger.

    If there were any Martial Arts cultivators present, they would see the essence above Kuzuki’s head rising like smoke, with Qi and Blood Heat Waves expanding outward from his body.

    Hoo… Hah…

    Utilizing the Battle-specific Breathing and Walking Technique, Kuzuki’s breath surged like the mighty Yangtze River, and within him, one could even hear the roaring sound of rushing water.

    “Well then, let’s greet them first…”
