The Moon Chef likes to give Type-Moon characters titles. Some of them are positive, such as the Four Heroines of Type-Moon; some are teasing, such as the Four Heavenly Kings of the Sideways and the Four Heavenly Kings of the Sideways; and some are regrettable, such as the Four Lost Girls of Type-Moon. Matou Sakura, Asagami Fujino, Mujo Amber, and Kallen Aldessia are the four female characters that the Moon Chef feels the most regret for.
Among them, Sakura and Fujino have had their fate changed by Shinji, and the force majeure that caused their missteps has completely disappeared. Now we will talk about the story of the third girl who fell, Amber Wujing.
Amber was born into a branch of the Wujing family. Her mother broke a taboo, which led to the decline of the branch family. In the end, only young Amber and her twin sister Feicui were left.
The ability of Amber and her sister Hisui is empathy, which allows them to transfer their abilities to designated objects through the exchange of body fluids. Tono Makihisa valued the sisters' abilities and adopted them.
Suppressing the "reversal impulse" requires enormous energy and physical strength. With the empathy of the two sisters, the elderly and frail Tono Makihisa can get physical replenishment when the "reversal impulse" occurs, avoiding being swallowed by the "reversal impulse".
So, the nightmare began.
On Amber's eighth birthday, Makihisa called Amber to his room under the pretext of giving her a birthday present and assaulted her - this is the most efficient way to use empathy.
After learning the truth about her and her sister being adopted, Kohaku and Makihisa agreed that Makihisa could do whatever he wanted to her, but he could not hurt Hisui. Since then, Kohaku, who was still very young at the time, became a tool for Makihisa to maintain his mental state, and was repeatedly violated by Makihisa every day.
When the "reversal impulse" strikes, the hybrids are no different from wild beasts. Amber suffers hellish pain every day, and her spirit gradually collapses as the violation continues.
She fantasized about herself as a doll so that she could ignore the pain. However, she was not a real doll after all. She was a human being with a human heart. In the constant violation, the seeds of hatred were buried deep in her heart, and then took root, sprouted, and grew vigorously.
The hellish days continued until Toono Akiha was fourteen years old. In the second year of junior high school, Akiha learned about the relationship between Makihisa and Kohaku and protested against Makihisa. Only then was Kohaku able to work in the Toono family as a servant. However, it was too late. Hatred had already distorted Kohaku's heart.
After finally being freed, Amber begins to plan revenge on the Tohno family. She wants to completely destroy the Tohno family. In the five world lines of "Tsuki-hime", no matter which one, Amber will kill Makihisa first, and then burn the flame of revenge to Akiba and Shiki, triggering a series of tragedies. In some lines, Shiki will pay with his life for this.
Was Amber wrong? No, she was treated inhumanely, and there was nothing wrong with seeking revenge.
Were Qiuye and Shiki wrong? No, they had not done anything excessive to Amber.
Was Shiki wrong? No, Shiki was the only light in the young Kohaku's heart.
The only one who was wrong was Makishū. Compared with Tōsaka Tokiomi who was slandered as the king of scapegoats in this world, Makishū was the one who was truly at fault for everything, and his crime could never be forgiven even if he were to die.
The problem is that killing Makishisa now will not help. Simply killing Makishisa is not enough to quell the fire of revenge in Amber's heart. If the matter is not handled properly and the news leaks out, she will have to bear the revenge of the Tohno family.
The Tono family is not a family with a declining population like the Matou family. They are rooted in the Tokyo area, with many branches and huge power. The number of psychics they have is not comparable to that of the Matou family. Once a conflict breaks out, the consequences will be disastrous. Shinji can't pay such a high price for such an unrelated girl.
But he was unwilling to do nothing and just watch the tragedy happen. He was conflicted about this until Orange asked him about it today, and he finally let it all out.
At this time, Shinji is only surrounded by Touko, Inui is sent to take care of Shiki, and Shiki is dragged to be the technical instructor of Fujino and Sakura. Inui is just an ordinary person, and Shinji doesn't want him to get involved too much; and Shiki seems indifferent, but in fact she is easily swayed by emotions. Shinji can't imagine what she will do, and it is not impossible for her to run and kill Makihisa directly.
The only person Shinji can trust is Orange, who is mature, rational and steady. To put it in an exaggerated way, Orange's style of doing things is similar to Scathach, so Shinji would go to her to confide in her.
After listening to Amber's story and the reason for Shinji's distress, Orange's first reaction was not to comfort or give advice, but to laugh. She laughed unscrupulously, completely destroying her image as an intellectual beauty.
"Hey, I'm here to discuss something with you, not to make fun of you." Shinji had the urge to beat someone up.
"Hahahaha, sorry, sorry, I really couldn't help it." Orange held his stomach and laughed breathlessly, "I didn't expect you to be such a righteous person, it's really admirable."
"In the magic world, this is no different from scolding me directly." Magicians are mostly rational, cold, selfish, and take death as their own responsibility. As long as it is for magic, they can sacrifice their own lives or the lives of others without hesitation. The so-called sense of justice is something that mainstream magicians must give up. If they cannot give it up, they are unqualified.
"You always say you're an unqualified magician, so you probably don't care."
"I thought I wouldn't mind it, but when I heard it, it still irritated me."
Seeing Shinji's bitter expression, Orange restrained her smile and patted his head gently.
"It's right to be harsh, because people are a collection of contradictions, and they seek unity in the spiral of contradictions. Not all magicians have given up their emotions, they just show less emotion than ordinary people. If something happens to you, Sakura, and Fujino, I won't sit idly by. But it's a bit weird and even pathological to worry about someone who has nothing to do with you. Of course, if you are interested in her ability, that's another matter. Shinji, are you interested in her ability?"
Shinji shook his head, feeling that such a power would be of almost no use to him after he had eaten the golden apple.
"Why is that? Are you really mentally ill?" Orange moved closer and looked closely into Shinji's eyes, as if she wanted to see his soul through his eyes.
"No, it's similar to how someone would be attracted to a character in a novel, or how someone would be attracted to a fictional character, just like someone would be attracted to your doll."
This kind of answer would be considered stupid by most people, but it made Orange feel relieved.
"So that's how it is. That's fine. Many magicians, especially magicians like me who are obsessed with creation, have similar emotions. Although you are a little different, it's just a problem in direction. Maybe you were affected by the emotional fluctuations she released when you sneaked in, or maybe you read something inadvertently. The spirits of witches and magicians are originally stronger than ordinary people, so it's not surprising that such a situation occurs. Don't worry, you are normal, I can assert it."
"Thank you." Shinji expressed his gratitude sincerely, not for the seemingly correct analysis, but just for the concern.
Orange raised her head and gently pushed her glasses up to prevent Shinji from seeing the change in her expression, which was a gentleness that even her sister Aoko had never seen.
"Really, after spending so much time with you guys, I've become a bit unlike myself."
