Next, Shen Er, what's your business?

Chapter 5 Conditions
By the time Shen Er woke up from the coma, it was already the afternoon of the second day.

The warm sunlight passed through the half-opened curtains, passed through the transparent glass, and fell on the delicate woman who was not human, coating the pure white woman with a layer of sacred light, just like the legendary saint who acted on behalf of the will of God. female.

This is the first picture Shen Er saw after opening his eyes. The astonishment and shock that reached the bottom of his heart instantly dispelled the hazy consciousness and the stiffness of the body.

"Morning, no, good afternoon, Justesa." Shen Er rolled over and got out of bed, and stretched himself against the sun.

"Good afternoon, Shinji."

Justesa closed the book in her hand. It wasn't a collection of books related to magic, nor was it a heavy classic. It was just a very ordinary magazine.After leaving the Holy Grail system, the "Saint of Winter", who has been independent for many years, began to understand the world in her own way, and reading books and newspapers became her hobbies.

"How's the situation at home?" Shen Er walked into the bathroom and asked while squeezing toothpaste.

"It hasn't changed from before." Justesa opened the window smoothly, and the breeze blew away, taking away the turbidity accumulated for more than ten hours and bringing in fresh air, "Just like you planned in advance, On Sakura's side, I have blurred her memory of last night with hints, and no one will know about Zouken's death except you, your father, and your uncle."

"Thank you, thank you for your hard work." Shen Er said vaguely while biting his toothbrush.

"You don't need to thank me, this is also part of the contract." Even with feelings and humanity, Justesa's style is still biased towards indifference.

"From my point of view, I still want to thank you. Whether you accept it or not is up to you." It has been quite a while since Shen Er signed the contract with Justesa, and he has long been accustomed to her indifference, so he doesn't care about it. don't care.

Justesa didn't care about Shen Er's reaction, and continued: "When you were resting, your father and uncle came to see you twice. They still have doubts about Zouken's death, and I hope you give them an explanation. "

"As expected, after all, it is the shadow that has shrouded the Matou family since birth, and everyone would be afraid. If you didn't help me, even if I got the treasure of Perseus and successfully destroyed Zouken's body and soul, I would also feel uneasy. Even now, I want to confirm with you again—Zouken, is he really dead?"

Even so, there was no fluctuation on Shen Er's face, it was terrifyingly calm.

From the first day he found himself time-traveling to become Shen Er, he has been acting.In the early stage, it was to protect himself and prevent Zou Yan from seeing his secret. After meeting Justesa, it was to prepare to kill Zou Yan.

Over the past few months, he forced himself to remain calm and calm, gradually forming an instinct.

"Dead." Justesa confirmed, "Makiri Zorgen, also known as Matou Zouken, has completely disappeared from this world."

"Yeah, that's fine."

Shinji raised his head and looked at himself in the mirror and Justesa in the mirror.

"He is dead, and the Matou family founded by him will continue to develop, and it will be busier than before."

Similar words, Shinji said again 10 minutes later, to his father Matou Tsuruno and uncle Matou Kariya.

Matou Tsuruno, the nominal head of the Matou family, like the original Shinji, does not have any qualifications as a magician, nor has he been trained by Zouken. The power is still in Zou Yan's hands.

But this is not a bad thing for Tsuruno, whether it is a titular leader or a distaste for demons, as long as you want to get the assets of the Matou family and the price of a carefree life, it is not a bad deal. .It's just that sometimes the pressure is a bit high, and I often feel drunk and dreamy.

It is worth mentioning that there is no information about Shen Er's mother, either in Shen Er's memory or in Tsuruno's life.

Maybe that woman is already dead, or maybe the birth of Shinji is just a deal manipulated by Zouken, in order to give birth to a qualified heir to the family line - that's fine, at least you don't have to worry about when a woman will come out and let you Call mom.

Kariya Matou, the only member of Uncle Shen Er's generation who is considered a magician, was originally the current governor of the Matou family favored by Zou Yan. Unexpectedly, 11 years ago, because he could not agree with the ugly insect technique and did not want to become Zou Yan, Kariya Kariya He resolutely broke free from the shackles of the family and left the home that was like purgatory for him.

Of course, Kariya's success in leaving home is also related to Zouken's indulgence.From Zouken's point of view, although Kariya's magic circuit is a bit better than Tsuruno's, it is not to the extent that he must spend his free will to make him the next Patriarch, and this matter has also become Sakura's One of the reasons for being adopted into the Matou family.

The irony is that, according to the original world line, Kariya will return to the home that has been away for many years because of Sakura's entry into Matou's house, and hope to save Sakura who fell into the wormhole at the cost of sacrificing himself-after all, Sakura It was the child of the only woman Kariya loved in his life, Aiwujiwu.

However, in the end, nothing was exchanged for this sacrifice. Kariya died, and Sakura became Zouken's puppet, ushering in a ten-year miserable life.

Fortunately, everything has changed. The biggest culprit, the culprit of everything, is dead.

The self-destruction of all the engraved insects in the insect nest, the gradual failure of the magician's workshop built by Zouyan, and the disappearance of the rotten atmosphere that can't be removed in the house all illustrate the ecstatic joy of Zouyan's death. fact.

Shen Er looked at his father in a daze, and his uncle went crazy for a while, then he clapped his hands to calm down the two of them.

"No matter what you think, Zouyan is dead, and we still have to live on. Thanks to the accumulation of Zouyan, the Matou family has an excellent platform. If we want to live well, the Matou family The platform cannot be wasted, so - father, uncle, I need your help."

"You/Shen Er——?" Until this time, the brothers focused their attention on Shen Er and the woman behind Shen Er who suddenly appeared at Matou's house.

The two brothers have been struggling in the society for these years, and they are not stupid. Naturally, they know the truth that what you give, you will get.

Being able to kill Zouken means that Shen Er, no, it should be that woman of unknown origin who is as powerful as Zouken or even surpasses Zouken. What does such a person want from the Matou family?Can the Matou family who lost the Zouyan afford it?Will he go out of the tiger's mouth and into the wolf's den again?
At this moment, the brothers who hadn't seen each other for a long time forgot the unfamiliarity and the unhappiness of last night and this morning (after all, Tsuruno was let go by Kariya before), and asked with an unprecedented serious expression:

"What do we need to do?"

PS: Shen Er's mother comes from a family of inheritors, so there is not much information.

PS2: Inheritance Bacteria Preserver—a magical characteristic that has been passed down from the age of mythology to the present, which is different from the magic circuit.It is not so much genetic inheritance as it is inscribed in the blood of one's own family through the transmission of pathogens from generation to generation.A certain textual research party's explanation is more reliable-a family that can preserve a certain mysterious lineage through parasitic bacteria.
