Type-Moon Simulation: Starting with Conquering a Greek Goddess!-Chapter 95 - : This Is Not a One-Sided Wish
Chapter 95 - 95: This Is Not a One-Sided Wish
Irisviel's awakening was much faster than expected.
Moran spent a week.
During this time, he did not choose to enter a simulation.
Instead, he focused his mind on adjusting Irisviel, fundamentally modifying her original fixed functions.
Making her overall qualifications more excellent.
At least, her lifespan should reach the conventional level.
It was also due to the intervention of a Magician of Moran's level that she was different from other homunculi from the moment of her birth.
Irisviel had far more vitality than others.
Although the initial situation was similar to Arcueid, with only a shell and no inner self.
However, under the influence of the aristocratic education of Einzbern, and the education of her creator Moran.
Her growth speed was very rapid.
Except for the silver hair and red eyes that symbolize a homunculus, there was nothing else that could be associated with a homunculus.
Whether it was magecraft or intelligence.
Far surpassed the current homunculi of Einzbern.
"As expected of the Master's work, Irisviel, how fortunate you are... You must remember, you must not betray the Master's favor. We Einzbern are just tools in the Master's hands."
Acht's words were not without severity.
However, there was a trace of respect in his aged face.
A little princess born from Moran's hands, the entire Einzbern family envied her.
Although Acht was bestowed with the Third Magic.
However, that was just a reward similar to that between a monarch and his subjects.
Irisviel was fundamentally different.
From the moment of her birth, the homunculus girl was bestowed with affection and even allowed to possess free will.
If this isn't love, then what is?
"Great Grandfather... what does this mean...?"
Irisviel's face showed a hint of confusion.
She didn't understand Acht's expectations.
She only knew that she was being anticipated by Acht.
"Irisviel, the thousand-year wish of the Einzbern family has been fulfilled. Now, our only remaining purpose is to gain the recognition of our Lord.
You were born into this world with the blessing of our Lord. I believe that no one in the Einzbern family is more suited than you to bring joy to our Lord. This is now the mission of our clan."
Acht spoke with great earnestness.
In the end, Irisviel showed a look of partial understanding.
She had been loved from the moment of her birth.
This brought her great joy.
Even without Acht's explanation, she enjoyed being with Moran, her creator.
Just like the warmth she felt at the moment of her birth.
Being by his side brought her a sense of peace and tranquility.
"Yes, I understand. The meaning of my existence must be to stay by Moran's side!"
The innocent and romantic silver-haired princess thought so.
With the expectations of her family and the warmth she felt from her creator, she naturally believed this.
About a month had passed.
From being completely ignorant at the beginning, to gradually learning about human emotions, and finally feeling the warmth in her heart, she wanted to respond to it in her own way.
"Moran! I've learned alchemy!"
Irisviel was surrounded by silver wires.
They twisted in the air, forming the exquisite shape of a butterfly, fluttering its wings as if alive.
In the garden, she seemed to be at the center of the world.
"Hmm, to achieve this level of alchemy in just a few days? Irisviel, you've done very well."
Moran praised her as he watched.
While teaching the Einzbern family new techniques, Acht led the evolution of homunculus technology, and Irisviel was undoubtedly the most successful second-generation homunculus.
Watching Irisviel's joyful smile, she believed that everything in the world was beautiful.
"Hehe..."
Moran couldn't help but smile.
He unconsciously recalled the time when he first taught Arcueid.
Back then, she was just as clueless as Irisviel, even being seen by others as a ruthless killing machine.
But with Moran's intervention and guidance, Arcueid learned many things she had never known before.
Perhaps, the reason he treated Irisviel this way was because he was reminded of the young Arcueid, and thus couldn't leave Irisviel to her own devices.
"...The Einzbern family should also change their management style."
Moran muttered this thought to himself.
He looked at the respectful homunculus maids around him.
Just as he was thinking this, the silver butterfly flew in front of him.
Following closely behind was the enthusiastic Irisviel.
It was as if she was waiting for something.
Verbal praise alone wasn't enough to satisfy the little princess. She had practiced alchemy diligently for more than just that.
"You're impossible, Irisviel."
"Hmph, you said that hard work would be rewarded! Moran, I remember your teachings clearly!"
"Is that so? I didn't know I had taught such a calculating little princess."
Moran reached out and patted Irisviel's head.
She smiled with the freshness of morning dew.
Like a sloth, she clung to Moran.
The little princess showed her attachment without any reservation, unaware of her own delicate and voluptuous figure.
She was as pure and flawless as an angel.
She hadn't yet realized the differences between men and women.
Or perhaps, even if she theoretically knew, she wouldn't apply it to herself and Moran.
"Don't get too proud. Alchemy is more than just this. There are deeper lessons to learn."
"Eh! I've already achieved this much!?"
"Hahaha, Irisviel, the world of magecraft is vast. For example, like this..."
Moran then demonstrated the creation of a golem.
By throwing a clump of magical energy into the ground, a golem was formed.
Irisviel's face was full of astonishment.
Her ruby-like eyes sparkled like stars, as if she were a child captivated by a fairy tale.
Every day since her birth had been filled with joy.
Compared to learning etiquette and knowledge from the Einzbern tutors, Irisviel preferred learning from Moran.
At night, she would cling to Moran all day.
Irisviel wore a thin silk nightgown, with a long shawl draped over her shoulders.
Her beautiful curves were clearly visible.
She lay on the bed without a hint of caution.
With anticipation, she looked at Moran.
Even at night, she enjoyed chatting with Moran.
Although she had been scolded by her great-grandfather Acht for lacking the restraint of a lady, she didn't think much of it.
Irisviel liked being with Moran like this.
It warmed her heart, and she loved it.
"Irisviel, you're too casual..."
"Hmm... Moran doesn't like me like this...?"
Irisviel showed a worried expression.
The last thing she wanted was for Moran to dislike her.
The slender girl, like a cypress tree, looked as if she might burst into pitiful tears at any moment.
Moran had no choice but to surrender.
He then apologized to Irisviel.

Moran responded to her initial expectation by telling her a story about a woman and a man parting ways.
The story wasn't very long.
Soon, Irisviel finished listening.
Her emotions were always pure.
After hearing it, she couldn't stop the tears from flowing.
"Moran is so mean! The story you told is so sad! Why did they have to part in the end... It's too heartbreaking..."
"But... you were the one who wanted to hear it..."
"Wuwu..."
Irisviel wiped her reddened eyes.
Moran showed a helpless smile.
Although he told it as a story, he was actually recounting his own past.
"From an outsider's perspective, it's a tragedy. But that's only from an outsider's view. For the people involved, it's not entirely a tragedy. Irisviel, do you want to hear me tell this story from another perspective?"
"...It's not a tragedy... You're not lying, are you?"
"I'm not lying."
"Then... okay... I'll believe you one more time..."
Irisviel moved closer to Moran.
She held onto his arm even tighter.
This little trick made Moran both amused and exasperated.
After a moment of thought, he continued.
It was still the story of the woman and the man parting, but this time from a different perspective.
"...The Moon Princess still chose to leave in the end. During her time with the vampire, she learned about love. She didn't want to die, nor did she want the one she loved to die. The same was true for the vampire. They undoubtedly loved each other."
Moran's tone was calm and gentle.
As if he were speaking about something unrelated to himself.
The story was captivating.
Irisviel could already imagine it in her mind.
"But, for the Moon Princess to choose to die alone, isn't that what you taught me... a one-sided wish?"
Irisviel had only recently learned this term.
The clever girl used it right away.
"Irisviel, this isn't a one-sided wish. Hmm... Not wanting to die isn't a sin. What's important is how to live. Everyone in the world has a reason to live. Those who striv to live always have something shining about them. Now, back to what you said about a one-sided wish."
Moran paused for a moment.
As if infusing the story with his own emotions.
"The Moon Princess's departure and the vampire's steadfast weren't just about sorrow. Until the very end, neither of them wanted to die. Through their love, they combined the weight of their lives. That's why it was balanced. Their sins could cancel each other out, allowing them to transcend."
This was the same principle as two negatives making a positive.
But for Irisviel, who had only recently gained emotions, this was somewhat difficult to understand.
She hadn't experienced such feelings before.
"It's so strange... Neither of them wanted to die... yet they were willing to face something even more cruel than death for each other..."
A trace of confusion appeared in Irisviel's beautiful eyes.
A strange emotion occupied her chest.
"Yes, both sides don't want to die for the sake of happiness, yet they can also choose to die for the other's happiness without hesitation."
Moran gently stroked Irisviel's silver hair.
His expression also became slightly complex.
Irisviel couldn't sense the contradiction in the story; instead, she felt that the proud and radiant souls of the two characters were too dazzling.
It was overwhelming for her.
"Through love, and through being loved. This emotion is no longer small; it is the shared sentiment of two people, so it's not one-sided.
The sorrow of the Moon Princess's passing and the vampire's lingering attachment. For one person, this might be a curse. But when combined, it can shine."
Moran explained it from a different perspective.
There was also a hint of relief in his words.
Having lived until now, he remembered this memory.
Although there was regret, there were no sighs.
This was the conclusion he had reached after experiencing the sub-scenario in his long life.
"Were they... happy...?"
"Hmm, I think they must have been happy. At least, I would pray that they were happy in the end."
"Then... it's indeed not so sad anymore..."
Irisviel felt warmth.
The image of two people loving each other and offering redemption gradually filled her mind.
After the warmth, emotions surfaced in her heart.
She couldn't help but feel that this was a story of mutual redemption, so romantic that it made her envious.
"Moran... can I also be loved deeply like the Moon Princess in your story?"
Irisviel's eyes were like moist gemstones.
They reflected Moran's figure, swaying slightly.
Within them was a longing she had never felt before.
The girl was clearly captivated by the story, and having gained emotions, she also wanted to experience such love.
"Iris..."
Moran was slightly stunned for a few seconds.
He saw the self that extended from the girl's heart.
It wasn't something deliberately provoked by others, but a decision she made after experiencing the colors of the world.
"Yes, there will definitely be someone who loves you deeply like that, Iris. I promise you here..."
"Mmm... I don't want anyone else..."
Irisviel's cheeks turned crimson.
Against her silver hair, it was even more noticeable.
"Iris, do you have someone in mind?"
"Mmm... Moran... you already know...!"
Irisviel buried her head in her chest in embarrassment.
Unconsciously, she hugged her arms, conveying her rapidly beating heart.
This already gave the answer.
However, Moran couldn't resist teasing the little princess.
Because she was just too adorable.
"If you don't say it clearly, no one will know."
"Mmm... you're so mean...!"
