There is indeed a problem with my summoning spirit system

Chapter 244 241. The end of Matou Zouyan

A weird bug crawled out from an inconspicuous little house behind the Matou family's castle.

This is the brain worm of Matou Zouken, and it can also be said to be a natal worm.

Placing one's soul on the worms and gaining immortality in another sense, this is a "miracle" accomplished by Matou Zouken relying on worm magic.

"Kariya really surprised me that he could actually do this. It's a pity. If he put his talent into obtaining the Holy Grail, he should be able to win in the end."

In the insect's body, Matou Zangyan's consciousness thought with some regret.

"However, he is still one step behind. After all, he is a mortal who doesn't understand magic. The natal insects that contain copies of my soul fragments are hidden in every corner of Fuyuki City. Even if the magic barrier formed by the magic power of the Command Spell seals me in, There are still a few brain worms outside the barrier, but they are temporarily dormant..."

Da da da.

The insect's keen senses made Matou Zouken feel the vibration of the ground, which was the sound of human footsteps.

"This is the forbidden area of ​​the Matou family. No one would come here on weekdays. Who is this?"

The worm squirmed and moved to a pile of fallen leaves that was not easy to be found.

The footsteps were still rattling and getting closer.

The bug felt something was wrong. It raised its head and tried to flap the short wings on its back to fly. However, it saw a handsome warrior wearing grass-green armor and holding a red spear - the Lancer of the Fourth Holy Grail War. Diarmuid Odina.

"Puff."

When the "Demon-breaking Red Rose" pierced the cerebrate's body, all the soul-preserving techniques were annihilated.

The metal blade was stained with bodily fluid and pulled out a slight portamento.

This is the sound that the brainworm named Matou Zouken heard at the end of his life.

After killing the first awakened brainworm, Diarmuid closed his eyes, seemingly sensing something.

After a long time, Diarmuid nodded and looked to the west.

He rode on a white horse he had borrowed from Berserker, who had been waiting for a long time, and rushed to the next location.

The same process happened one after another in every corner of Fuyuki City.Matou Zouken has bought a considerable amount of real estate and private land in Fuyuki City, many of which have placed his natal insects.Some are in basements, some are in mountain caves, and some brain worms are directly implanted into people's bodies by Matou Zouyan.

However, this cunning rabbit's three-hole strategy has no effect today.

Many conscious cerebrates tried to escape Diarmuid's clutches, but to no avail.

All the brainworms died under Diarmuid's red gun.

Finally, the last brain worm hidden in the underground insect cellar of Matou's family crawled out.

The moment this brain worm appeared, a large number of engraved worms poured out of the pool used to cultivate engraved worms, mixed with some different types of more aggressive or combat-type insect demons with some special effects. .

This is the last resort of Matou Zouyan. All the imprinted worms in the underground worm cellar of the Matou family were cultivated by Matou Zouyan himself. These insects can also be regarded as his familiars.

His bug magic will gain the strongest boost in this vast ocean of bugs.

A sea of ​​countless bugs surged around the engraving bug crawling out of the crack in the cellar. The bugs turned into "flesh and flesh" and reconstituted the "Matou Zouyan" in the shape of a human.

Although they have lived for hundreds of years, they have to replace their bodies frequently due to the continuous wear and tear of their bodies.When the body is obviously damaged, the body of another person is used as a substitute for resurrection.This is how Zouyan continues to live by parasitizing on other people's bodies, and the main body is located in the brain worm that is the container of the soul.As long as the soul is still there, it can continue to survive through parasitism.But the memory of the soul will continue to deteriorate, affecting the aging of the body. As a part of the body, its lifespan is getting shorter every year, and now it has to be replaced every few months.And to maintain the memory of the soul, there is no other way but to use the posture of the old man.

This time, Zouken Matou used the flesh and blood of insects as a substitute for resurrection. Compared with the image of a decayed old man that Zouken Matou showed in the past, this newly formed humanoid figure is taller, and his body seems to have mutated, covered with gnarled knots. muscle.Like a demon in the abyss.

Although I don't know why, Lancer Diarmuid can find his position so accurately.But all the brain worms have been killed, and the last one left in the underground worm cellar of Matou's house, no matter what, he must defeat Lancer.

Da Da's footsteps sounded clear, but in the ears of "Matou Zouken", it sounded like the death knell ringing when the god of death came.

Diarmuid, holding a scarlet spear, gently pushed open the door of the underground insect cellar.

Since it is an important magic workshop and also stores a large number of engraved worms and brain worms, the door of the underground worm cellar is protected by multiple forbidden magic wards by Matou Zouken.

However, in front of the "Demon-breaking Red Rose", all defenses made of magic power are futile.

In front of Diarmuid's Noble Phantasm, even if it is an enchantment that can defend against the Noble Phantasm of the opposing city.As long as it is made of magic power, it is the same as nothing.

"How on earth did you find me? Lancer!"

With a ghoul-like appearance, hysterical screams caused by suppressed fear, and a large number of disgusting insects, the dark, damp, rotten and smelly underground worm cellar of the Matou family is like a corner of Senra Hell.

Diarmuid looked around a lot, and there was a faint silver glow in Gu Panjian's eyes.

"Is it the last one already?"

He said softly, and finally looked at the monster standing in the middle of the worm pond, with countless worms all over its body—"Matou Zouyan".

Diarmuid opened his left hand, which he had been holding tightly, and in his palm was the corpse of a bug.

"As a farewell gift for you to leave safely, I will tell you. Kariya-san gave me the ability to trace the person associated with this piece of flesh and blood with a command spell. That is to say, no matter where your soul is, as long as you With this piece of 'flesh' that originated from you in my hand, I will be able to find where you are."

"So...is that so?"

Matou Zouyan didn't expect that Matou Kariya, whom he always thought was just a mortal, would do things beyond his imagination.

Regarding Matou Kariya's actions, Matou Zouken's guess is actually half right and half wrong.

At that time, Matou Zouken saw with his own eyes that the number of Berserker magic scrolls and the number of command spells glowing on the back of Matou Kariya's hand were three.Therefore, Matou Zouken has the information that Matou Kariya used three Command Spells.

In this regard, Matou Zouken's idea is that the two Command Spells in Matou Kariya's hands are used to exchange for the ability to allow Lancer and Berserker to maintain the world alone.And the last command spell was used to form a barrier to seal his retreat, so that he had nowhere to escape.

But in fact, what Matou Zouyan didn't know was that the reason why Matou Kariya had to talk with him for so long in the auditorium was not only to attract his attention and let Lancer carry out a sneak attack, but also an important reason The reason is to buy time for Zhao Yun.

The pocket watch he gave to Matou Sakura earlier was also a special magic prop.

A contract was engraved on the inside of the pocket watch.A transfer contract signed by Kariya Matou, transferring the master power of Berserker to Sakura Matou.

While Matou Zangyan activated the engraved insects to torture Matou Kariya, berserker Zhao Yun's master had been transformed into Matou Sakura under the transfer of Matou Kariya.Therefore, Zhao Yun can still remain in the present world without the need for Matou Kariya to maintain it with a command spell.

In this way, there is one more Command Seal.

A fatal Command Spell that determined Matou Zouken's fate.

In the auditorium of the Matou family castle, on both sides of Matou Kariya's body, on the three magic scrolls that were torn in half, were written in magic language and patterns:

"In the name of the first Command Spell, Lancer Diarmuid Audi is given the magical power to move freely for a short period of time."

"In the name of the second command spell, within a ten-meter radius of Lancer Diarmuid Odina, it is prohibited to bring in or out of magic objects. This can be lifted by Diarmuid Odina on his own initiative."

"In the name of the third Command Seal, Lancer Diarmuid Audi is given the eyes that can see through the soul."

Matou Kariya's three Command Spells were actually all used on Diarmuid's body, and this third Command Spell was to allow Diarmuid to have the "golden eyes" to find the real body of Matou Zouken .

This kind of ability, which is enough to be regarded as an inherent skill, cannot be obtained through command spells. Otherwise, according to the same method of use, any heroic spirit in the Holy Grail War can use Gilgamesh's King's Treasure, which obviously violates the rules of the Holy Grail War.

However, Matou Kariya never planned to get so much from the beginning.He did a little work around.

He ordered Diarmuid to kill an insect that flew out of Matou Zangyan's body during the sneak attack, or collect part of his flesh and blood.

Matou Kariya hoped that the ability Diarmuid obtained through the Command Spell was just the ability to find the related person based on a certain related object.

And this extremely restrictive special "inherent skill" has been affirmed by the Holy Grail.

Therefore, Diarmuid has the ability to accurately sense the location of the brain worm Matou Zunyan.

Eyes that accurately sense positioning; red roses that cut off magic; and the famous horse lent by Berserker in order to speed up Lancer's movement, the Night Shining Jade Lion.

From that moment on, no matter where Matou Zouken fled, he could not escape Diarmuid's pursuit.

And this is the real lore trap composed of Matou Kariya using his own life as bait and adding three Command Spells.

The moment those three scrolls were torn apart, Matou Kariya had already won.Although the price of winning is a bit tragic.

"No, I haven't lost yet! I will live! For my..."

for what?The words were spoken, but there was no text.

Seems to be for a lofty ideal.

"Matou Dirty Inkstone" looked like a madman, and with the wave of its distorted and gnarled arms, a large number of insects flew towards Diarmuid Audina.

Facing these ferocious flying insects, Diarmuid's expression did not change at all.

The eyes glowing with silver light have locked onto the soul of Matou Zouken, and his peerless martial arts allowed Diarmuid to easily avoid the sharp edge of the swarm.

Lowering the body, lunging forward, the palm of the right hand controls the "Demon-breaking Red Rose" to draw a smooth curve, penetrating into the twisted fleshy body of "Matou Zouken".

The flame of the soul finally dissipated at the moment when the spear entered the body.

The huge alien formed by the magic of Matou Zouken controlled the flesh and blood of the insect, collapsed and scattered into fragments of the insect.

Diarmuid put away the "Demon-breaking Red Rose" and turned to leave.

And in this mess everywhere, a bit of soul residue shone with the last faint light.

Why are you unwilling to face death?
Suffering the pain of physical collapse every day, he turned into a "blood-sucking insect" that cannot shine on the sun, living in this inhuman way.

Obviously, as long as you let go of life, you can be free from pain, but you still cling to life, why?

It seems to remember the long past.

Initially, for a noble purpose.

Take everything into your hands.To know all truths, to go where no one has gone before.Go beyond the limited body and reach the infinity of the soul.

species called humans.Confined by pre-established boundaries, wanting to get out of the never-ending spiral of the brain.All hatred and pain are all for healing and elimination.

In retrospect.

After lamenting that there is no paradise.

If this world is empty, if even the creation of a physical body is not allowed, then rise up and go to the place where it can be allowed.

It’s not about creating a new world, it’s about transforming yourself and human life into something completely new.

correct.

As long as you raise your head, you can reach the universe, the end, and be born again, the horizon that no one has imagined, and the ideal land that we can't describe.

to this end.

Seek the Holy Grail for this.

Seek miracles beyond human reach.

There is no reason to disappear until it is achieved.

No matter how many times you are defeated, no matter how many times you realize that you cannot reach it with your body, as long as you are still alive, you will never give up.

That's right, there is only one dream thing.

To abolish all evil in this world.

We risk our lives for an ideal that cannot be realized.

So, stay alive.

Even after all the enemies are gone, knowing that it is meaningless, I can only keep searching.

Believe that existence has its meaning, as long as it exists, one day, it may be able to cultivate people who inherit their own will.

So keep on surviving.

Even knowing the pain, there is no reason to die.

Even if I want to change myself, I want to overthrow the immature lament when I was young.

This is my own way of life, and it is also the answer that I cannot answer.
That's right.

Even in the future ahead, without any reward.

This is the original wish.

At the end of the residual consciousness, a golden figure appeared in his sea of ​​consciousness in a trance.

The Holy Maiden of Winter - Justesa Lizleich von Einzbern.

Those were compatriots who had fought with him in the past and who had also sacrificed themselves for their ideals.

What kind of evaluation would she give to her ending of turning into an alien?

Maybe it will be disappointment?

Matou Zouken - Zorgen Maqili, ushered in the end of a long life.

The last sigh of the soul, in this dark and damp cellar, there is no echo.

The boy who slays demons eventually becomes a demon

The warrior who slays the dragon finally becomes a dragon
