Even though it seems very different from Tia's image of Japan, it's still pretty normal, but it's clear that she has been affected.
Just then, a working man dropped his briefcase on the ground, and a woman passing by happened to pick it up for him.
"Thank you," said the man.
"You're welcome," said the woman.
"Um, as a thank you, can I take you out to eat?" asked the man.
"Sure," said the woman.
"That place over there is really good, and they give you a lot of credit, and even if we go over the credit limit, we can give them something as payment, so let's go there."
"Okay, how about we get married after we eat?" asked the woman.
"Sounds good," said the man.
"I've already thought of a name for our baby," said the woman.
"Really? What's the baby's name?" asked the man.
"Ritsuka," said the woman.
"Really? That's perfect, my last name is Fujimaru," said the man.
"Is that so? So you're Mr. Fujimaru, then I'll be Mrs. Fujimaru," said the woman.
"Let's go," said the man.
Tia: What the heck did I just watch? I'm totally stunned!
"Master, though modern people are very open, but as far as I know, it shouldn't be to the point where strangers get married and have children just because they helped pick something up," Lancelot couldn't help but frown.
Of course not! It's impossible for things to develop to this point in any time! This is just crazy! It's not just that bad thoughts have disappeared, it's like the evil part of people's common sense is gone!
Originally, Tia didn't think there was anything to be nervous about because the changes in Waver, Tohsaka Tokiomi, and Kotomine Kirei hadn't gone beyond Tia's common sense, but now, it seems that the problem with this unusual place is quite big.
And don't tell me those two are the parents of the legendary Guda. Guda was just born so easily!
After the man and woman left, Tia saw a cook holding something, talking to people one by one, and everyone was smiling and accepting what the cook gave them.
Soon the cook came up to them.
"Hello, can you cook? If not, I can teach you myself! Don't worry, I have many students, I'm very good at teaching people! This is my family's cookbook, please take it."
Tia looked confused, took the cookbook, and opened it. Then she saw... very detailed instructions on how to cook, what to do when, almost to the point of feeding you the food.
Tia's mouth twitched.
This is too unbelievable. Giving away a family cookbook like this.
The cook was still giving away his family cookbook to everyone.
After Lancelot saw the contents of the cookbook, his expression suddenly changed and he released a magic spell at the cook. It was the arrow he used to purify Angra Mainyu.
That arrow immediately made everyone look at them.
"Amazing."
"It's Caster!"
"So cool!"
"..."
Even though people were looking at Tia and Lancelot, they didn't crowd around, and they kept walking.
The cook who was shot didn't react at all, just looked back at Lancelot strangely, smiled, and left.
A scene that clearly should have caused a huge stir passed by without any trouble at all!
"I'm sorry, I was wrong, there was something in this cookbook that I saw when I was alive," Lancelot said.
But Tia didn't care about that. Tia didn't understand why they just walked away?
Just then, a woman in a pure white kimono appeared on the street across from Tia.
Tia didn't know when the woman in the pure white kimono appeared there. Although it was the first time she had seen her, judging from her hairstyle and appearance, she was pretty much Ryougi Shiki, or rather, the Root.
Lancelot seemed to see something dangerous and subconsciously held his holy sword, ready to fight.
Tia wasn't too worried, but instead felt excited, and even forgot about what had just happened, because Ryougi Shiki had actually come to her.
Come with me.
Ryougi Shiki said something very quietly, almost like talking to herself, but Tia and Lancelot heard it.
"Master, she is..."
"Ryougi Shiki, or rather, the Root," Tia nodded, "Let's go."
Tia and Lancelot followed Ryougi Shiki, walking... walking, from the busy city streets to the empty mountain roads, and there were fewer and fewer people around. Finally, Tia and Lancelot followed Ryougi Shiki to a bend in a mountain road.
Tia was very familiar with this place.
Because it had appeared more than once in the anime.
That's right, this was the place where Kurogiri Kanya met the Root for the first and last time.
"What should I call you, Tia, or Emiya Shirou?" Ryougi Shiki stood at the bend, looking at the street scene below the mountain, and spoke directly.
"I am Tia, and I am also Emiya Shirou," Tia replied, "But Emiya Shirou is not Tia."
"Is that so? So that's what you think," Ryougi Shiki said, "I can see your past, your present, but I can't see your future. There's no record of your future in the Akashic Records."
Tia was stunned when she heard Ryougi Shiki's words.
Lancelot was also stunned when he heard Ryougi Shiki's words.
"You mentioned the Mystic Eyes of Death Perception, but that's something that will happen in the future, and you... couldn't possibly know the future," Ryougi Shiki continued.
"Master has Clairvoyance, right?" Lancelot explained immediately.
"No, he doesn't... his past never had Clairvoyance," Ryougi Shiki's words shocked Lancelot, but he quickly recovered.
"No! I definitely saw the future through Clairvoyance!" However, Tia insisted that she had Clairvoyance.
Tia understood that everything about her was in Ryougi Shiki's control, except for her identity as a Reincarnated Person. That is to say, Tia as a Reincarnated Person was not in the Root Vortex, and not in the Akashic Records. What she saw in the past was probably Emiya Shirou's past, or even the Root of Emiya Shirou.
