“(chew chew)——(swallow)——

I see, it’s a very strange experience. I know that Mr. Xingke does not have a parallel world body, but I didn’t expect that the [single timeline] could complete the [eternal experiment] in such a twisted way... Interesting, but problematic

This kind of thing can only be accomplished by His Excellency Xing Ke himself."

Meteora swallowed the cookies in her mouth expressionlessly, took a sip of black tea, nodded with satisfaction, and continued:

"Although I am very interested in the principle of eternity, this [small eternity] attached to another eternity actually does not have much practical significance, right?

However, thank you Mashiro-dono for sharing your story, it allowed me to spend a very fulfilling period of time..."

"Same here, thank you Meteora and Berry for the cake."

Mashiro held a cake plate in his hand, chewing expressionlessly while searching for the next prey on the snack-covered ground.

Next to them, there are several petite girls in elf-like chef hats clearing the plates, and two girls in different clothes are taking care of Yiye in the stroller to drink milk...

Where does this look like the aisle between bookshelves? The tea restaurant is not as comfortable as here.

"Right? Mr. Berry's cake is one of the best here..." Meteora said with some complacency as she touched the head of a little girl passing by.

"Is Berry the [Fairy in the Attic]?" Seeing these golden twin tails, the cute and hard-working little thing Mashiro thought of the fairy tale books he had read.

"Well, I don't know. The concept is somewhat similar, but the situation is a bit complicated. But as my contract cook... no, she is a contract elf, but she can be regarded as the attic elf in fairy tales.

She, or these children, are one and the whole, all are one, a very magical existence..."

"Well, it's amazing. Delicious cake. You can eat as much as you want."

"Mashiro-dono, don't you rarely eat cakes?"

"Someone said that [excessive intake of happiness is extremely poisonous to humans], and I was not allowed to use magic to open my stomach, so I quickly became full after eating cake."

"Ah, restricting the satisfaction of appetite, this is simply abuse." Meteora expressed her indignation, but the next second she changed her tune and said: "But it can be seen that Lord Hoshiki cares about Lord Mashiro, so

I also want you to live a little longer."

"Someone wants me to live longer?" Zhenbai was puzzled.

"When people live in this world, they are always looking for something to gain and satisfy... These are the motivation to live and the meaning of living.

If one day these goals are satisfied, if the desire for [life] is satisfied, or if it is clear that living cannot satisfy the desire... then you can only long for [death], [death]

It’s also a novel experience, because usually a person can only experience it once.”

It is because of this that there are strange sayings like "My last wish is not fulfilled", "I will die without regrets", "I will die with satisfaction", "It is worth dying like this".

"What about someone? He even has his desire to die satisfied."

Mashiro looked at the delicious cake in his hand and hesitated for a moment, but in the end he didn't give up and finished it.

"I don't know either. I'm not an immortal like Mr.

What about? I’m very curious.”

There was a little yearning in Meteora's eyes, which was an extremely strong desire for knowledge:

"But I have a little idea, although this is just my guess——

If we assume that no matter what kind of desire, one day it will eventually be satisfied, then it is because there are too few known desires, right? Then, looking for [new desires], this kind of strangeness

The desire for knowledge will be born in response to the pregnancy, so [the desire for knowledge] will never be satisfied.

Just like "The omniscient God doesn't know what he doesn't know", this argument is enough to support Mr. Xingke's "perpetual motion machine".

If this view is confirmed, then there is no doubt that Your Excellency Xing Ke is the [most orthodox magician]. He truly lives only to seek knowledge of the unknown, and not everyone can do it..."

After being stunned for a moment, Mashiro unconsciously turned his gaze to Ichiyo in the cradle and asked silently:

"So, if someone is such a magician, what are the other people he encounters in his life to him?"

"Forehead--"

Meteora's mouth suddenly stopped, and she said with some embarrassment:

"Although I'm a little sorry for breaking your dream for Lord Xingke. But based on my understanding of Lord Xingke, in his life path, for him, apart from the [Humanity Test] and the [Human Heart Test], human beings

Apart from being an "experimental subject" in the "Social Relationship Test", I can't think of any other status.

Mr. Xingke's attitude towards others has nothing to do with liking or disliking him. He simply thinks that studying others is interesting and he won't get bored. He is truly an arrogant person."

As he said this, Meteora followed Mashiro's gaze and looked in Kazuyo's direction, but did not say anything superfluous.

"...Really? Then is this the reason why Kazuha becomes like this? But why don't I feel disgusted?" Mashiro was very confused: "Rita said that it is not good to decide other people's lives casually,

I think so too, but...there's something wrong."

Looking at Mashiro's expression, Meteora suddenly understood why Xingke cherished this girl.

"Isn't it because of this girl named Yiye that her wish was finally fulfilled?

【Always be with the person you like】

From birth to death, forever and ever, no matter how twisted the method was, Lord Xingke fulfilled her wish and made her happy."

Picking up another piece of chocolate chip cookie, Meteora took a small bite and continued:

"Although he is extremely arrogant, he treats everyone sincerely, and he also works hard to cherish his [experimental subjects]... Surprisingly, he is not annoying, so he and I can become friends who work together.

.”

Meteora felt very close to Mashiro, a child who was very similar to her in many aspects, so she unknowingly started a "Snack Tea Story Story Party" in her beloved library.

The difference between her and Mashiro is that she only has few expressions, and she doesn't speak many words. She is a fake three-no...

Therefore, if Mashiro, a girl who looks pure white, has any illusions about the humanity of Hoshiki, then she should be warned.

However, now it seems that Meteora feels that she is troublesome, because Mashiro does not seem to think that Hoshiki is [evil], and she herself does not seem to be the same as her name...

Well, pure white is pure black, objects are extremely opposite, and so are people. This is not something incomprehensible, right? Meteora understood it in her heart.

"Hey, Meteora, what is someone doing now? Will Illya forgive him?"

"Huh? Well...it shouldn't be possible, right?"

Meteora looked at the macarons of different colors on the plate and said worriedly:
