I was 'stalking' my emanators, wanting to see if there was any divergence, since there's a massive difference between the original story and what they have now.

To my surprise, there were little to no changes; it's like fate handed them the perfect script. Still, it was not all that similar to the anime; there's the fact that they are very confident. I could see that in their posture; they aren't merely pretending to be tough as they did in the original.

But rather backed by real confidence that nothing could be a threat in this world; after all, with their power, nothing was too dangerous.

That's why they are very comfortable with being thrown into another world, acting like it's their own backyard.

I don't blame them for that; after all, with true power comes real confidence.

Right now, they met Stephanie Dola.

After that, I decided not to watch anymore, as I already knew the outcome. Then, as I left the god view, I noticed that D was staring in my direction.

"What?" I asked.

"I'm curious what happened to those siblings after they got dragged away from this world." Her words surprised me.

"Huh? You can't see them?" I thought she would be able to trace them.

D made a face at him. "Yes, I can't. It's not like I don't know where they got dragged into; however, the world they are in has an anti-view mechanism for those entities with prying eyes. While I could push it, there's no need for me to escalate things, although I'm curious; I'm not stupid."

Hearing that confession, I couldn't help but feel a degree of shock. As far as I know, D is above me in terms of every single stat and ability, but why is it that I could see the world in clarity while she can't get past the world anti-monitor without alerting Tet?

Then, thinking about its implications, there are 3 things that made this possible.

Reason 1 is because they are my emanators; that's why I could bypass the anti-monitor system from that world and also the simplest to understand.

Reason 2 is because of the uniqueness of my origin, which is the shop, and thanks to that I could see beyond, but I doubted it.

And finally, reason 3: Tet allowed it because he knew that they're my people and gave me access to watch their journey.

To be honest, the last one was most likely the case, while the first one does make sense; however, there's still a lot of 'how 'and 'why' to it.

The second one, the shop doesn't really give me any sort of protection or benefits outside of it.

And the third is the most reasonable one.

If it's really the case, then I'm very grateful for the permission, and if he ever asks for a favor, I would surely agree as long as it's not too demanding.

Then, thinking about my other friend who got isekai'd within the same week, I couldn't find where the heck the world of Od Laguna is.

I'm not even sure if it's within the same universe or a different one entirely.

Still, I'm going to try and find it, but if I can't, then I could only cheat using the shop.

But first I'll try my own means; I'll go check the convenience store where he vanished.

To see if there's still traces, and if there's something it would be an easy task to track it.

…

..

.

I was back at my house again, and for some reason I feel guilty for not being able to come back yesterday. Was it for Ai or Morgan?

Probably both. I did say I'd be back soon, but it took me almost an entire day to arrive.

Taking deep breaths, I finally went inside the house and inside I saw someone I definitely didn't want to see right now.

My cool expression shattered almost immediately, and I started sweating even though I was incapable of doing so after becoming an aeon.

I forced a smile and said, "Sister, I didn't know you were coming; you should have notified me."

It was Lorelei, my dearest sister, the only person on earth who could intimidate me with her sheer presence alone.

"Oh? What's with that reaction? Are you unhappy to see me?" Lorelei raised her elegant brow.

"Of course not! I'm happy to see you, but sister, can you please let me know in advance so that I can at least prepare?" I let out a sigh; I wasn't lying.

I am genuinely happy to meet my sister again, even if the last time we met was merely a week ago.

However, that was only half the story, and the other was simply my instinctive fear of her.

To me, she will always be bigger than life.

"Hmph, a proper Barthomeloi should always be prepared in every situation." Lorelei once again started imparting 'life lessons' every time there's a chance.

And I'll probably forget most of it, as the majority of her lessons are useless outside of the moonlit world.

Not that I can blame her; after all, since she showed excellence and great talent, she was destined to become the head of the Aristocratic Faction and eventually the Vice Director.

It is inherited; she lived her life filled with politics. A slight wrong word could be taken literally, a pit of snakes and hyenas.

She never knew a normal life, and couldn't think outside of family responsibilities and duties to uphold.

In her eyes, that seemingly unreasonable advice was correct, as it was based on her own experience and how she navigated her life as the heir.

And outside that circle, she simply is clueless.

Her only connection outside the moonlit world was me, and recently Shirou Fucking Emiya.

And even now I don't fucking know how he conquered her, because I expected her to remain single for life or get a political marriage with other powerful families.

But somehow there was a third option I never expected, but a surprise one considering how much 'soft' she has been over the years.

She still has little common sense outside the moonlit world, though.

Either way, I only nodded at her.

Not really taking it seriously, like who cares about image when I can literally destroy this planet a thousand times over in a single span of minutes.

But I won't become that; it's genocide, and I actually like living here despite Gaia being such a bitch.

Ever since I became an aeon, she was literally screaming at me, telling me to get the fuck out; I mostly ignored it, though.

I have a mute button I can freely turn on and off, plus she can't do shit about me; how brave she is, considering I could easily destroy her right now.

Still, it makes me wonder if it's possible to replace this ego or, at least, make her more agreeable.

While I was contemplating how to replace the literal will of the earth, my sister Lorelei noticed that I was daydreaming.

To which she flicked her fingers and shot a miniature 'magic missile' is actually Gandr, although it's small in size, it's actually much much stronger than Rin Tohsaka Gandr from the 5th Holy Grail War.

The quality was insane, plus her sorcery trait only amplified it.

If this were anyone else, they would die before they could think, but this is me. Lorelei was familiar with my capabilities; even before becoming a magician, I could easily stop this level of attack.

And currently, such an attack is like slow, super duper slow in my eyes; from my perspective, time might as well stop moving entirely.

I could have easily dodged it, but I didn't let it hit my forehead. It didn't deal any sort of damage; it might as well be the same as a microorganism attacking me, basically unnoticeable.

Bang!

I didn't even flinch from it. Lorelei looked a bit surprised by how I casually took it, but it didn't last. 

"Stop daydreaming and pay attention to me." 

"Right, right, so there must be a reason why you're here, right? Also, where's Shirou?" 

"A few things, and he's in the kitchen," Lorelei answered immediately.

"So, what are these few things?" I have a feeling that I already know what it is.

Lorelei posed elegantly on the couch like a supermodel. "First, I already have the necessary items ready for the exchange in your shop."

As expected, I continued listening.

"The second issue: yesterday, something fundamental changed. Everyone was caught off guard by this. We still don't know the source of this, and currently we're still investigating. This is also part of the reason why we hasten our process of exchanging. We could have found better artifacts, but I'm afraid we're running out of time. We don't know if the changes are dangerous or not, but it's better to be prepared."

Hearing that, I was sweating internally and screamed inside. 'That was me! I'm the reason for that change!'

I was thinking whether to tell her about it or not.

Then I saw something from Lorelei that shocked me; it was the look of nervousness.

It was a completely unfamiliar expression from her; it's something I never thought I'd see in this lifetime!

"And lastly, I am unsure how to announce this, so I might as well be clear about it. I am pregnant." 

Hearing that from her mouth shocked me, and I couldn't stop myself from saying. "Wait, I'm going to be an uncle?!"

—

A/N: With all of those actions offscreen, it's impossible for her not to get pregnant; Shirou has the BONE OF HIS SWORD.
