[Fate] Box and Servant

thirteen

"Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah.

There were obvious red marks on Archer's face, and blood spilled from the corner of his mouth. The rapier in his hand swiftly attacked Lancelot's gap. Lancelot didn't dare to be distracted, and his eyes were fixed on Archer's every move. .

I don't know how long they have been fighting in this dense fog. The heroic spirits who were engrossed in it didn't notice their rapid changes. , The shining treasure replaced the broken street lamp to illuminate the path.

The scream just now did not stop Archer's attack, and he was so excited that he did not notice the crack on the rapier he was holding.But Lancelot knew that the undestroyed lake light, which was wider and heavier than the rapier, slammed into the crack, and with a crisp sound, the long sword broke into pieces.And at the same time, the surrounding dense fog gradually faded, human voices became more and more, screams kept coming and going, and it was unknown what happened.

Archer clicked his tongue, kicked Lancelot flying, and said impatiently: "What a disappointment, the fog that was just right has faded, the number of common people has begun to increase, and the rare entertainment has been interrupted again, alas . " The dark sword hilt slipped down Archer's fingertips, and the broken treasure is garbage, and it is already an honor for this treasure whose name is not remembered to be held by him.

"Do you want to continue?" The tall knight spat the blood from his mouth on the ground, stood guard with his sword in his hands, his hair sticking to the side of his sweaty face, Lancelot was not seriously injured , compared to the fiery handprints on Archer's face and the open wound at the corner of his mouth, he doesn't look embarrassed.

However, this arrogant archer never put on armor or his exclusive treasure from the beginning to the end. During the battle, Lancelot could also sense that the other party was just fighting him with a mentality to relieve boredom.Otherwise... Lancelot knew clearly that he would definitely die in the face of that treasure.

"Stupid liar, the common people have already gathered, let's call it a day." Bloody vertical eyes stared at the tall knight, seeing Lancelot still on guard, Archer couldn't help laughing, and said: "Ahahahahaha! But you, you are really good! I am looking forward to meeting you next time, don't die before that, you liar rider." As soon as the voice fell, he was wearing a black wallet The archer turned into dots of golden light and disappeared before Lancelot's eyes.

After nearly a minute, Lancelot stood up straight and unarmed. Apart from the scar on his face, he also had a broken rib, but compared to this injury, he cared more about the fact that he just bought it. medicines. Archer appeared too suddenly, from the path all the way to the park, the well-wrapped paper bag had long since disappeared.Lancelot patted his sleeves, planning to go to the pharmacy again, hoping that the store hadn't closed yet.

The fog that came and went quickly disappeared without a trace, and the pungent smell could not be smelled in the air. The screams just now should have come from the direction of the pharmacy, and the closer they got, the louder the voice The voice became clearer.

Lancelot stopped in his tracks, and there were seven or eight people scattered in front of the pharmacy he frequented.The police should still be on the way, and the sound of sirens gradually came from a distance. Lancelot approached a little bit, and with his tall stature, he could easily see the situation clearly.

No wonder no one dared to take a step forward, the appearance of the deceased was too miserable.Lancelot frowned, and realized that this face was the lady pharmacist. She had already changed into casual clothes, and she thought she had been attacked as soon as she stepped out of the pharmacy after get off work.

Different from the rigid white coat, she was wearing a powder blue cashmere thin coat with a lace dress inside. The soft fabric was ruthlessly torn, together with the unique soft belly of a woman.The nail beds of those nails, which were able to pack the medicine carefully, were turned outwards, and a bloody gash was cut on the slippery neck, and the blood flowed all over the floor. The smell of blood covered up the soft smell of perfume.

Lancelot couldn't bear to see Miss Pharmacist's painful expression, so he looked down and landed on the bloody wound.The wound looks rough, but when you look closely, you will find that the incision is smooth and neat. The line goes straight down from the clavicle, from shallow to deep, just like a painter did it with one stroke, and it just cuts through the thicker cortex when it reaches the abdomen , as if the internal organs were still steaming, occasionally a little beating could be seen, and the large intestine was pulled out and put on the shoulder.The pharmacist's figure is slender, but not to the point of being skinny, but the abdomen has lost the support of internal organs, leaving only a thin layer of unbroken skin.

Such a precise knife cuts off the meat and cuts away the uterus together.

If you know a little bit of criminal history, you can easily think of the famous serial murderer when you see this scene.

An unreasonable fog full of magical power... Lancelot confirmed the thoughts in his heart. It seems that the servant Sakura Matou mentioned does not only refer to the archer, but the heroic spirit who was once a serial murderer is not far away. The servant is fighting, but it seems that he failed and was injured, so he killed people on the way back to replenish a certain amount of magic power.

Another troublesome Heroic Spirit, the Holy Grail is ruthless.

Just when Lancelot was about to find another pharmacy, the Bluetooth on his ear flickered, and when he pressed the button, Matou Sakura's cold voice came over, saying, "Come back, berserker."

"The medicine is lost, do you want to buy it again?"

"No need." Before Lancelot said 'yes', the girl hung up the phone.Lancelot has long been accustomed to his master's undisguised disgust and hostility. He glanced at the pharmacist lady on the ground, sighed in his heart for the affected young life, and walked towards the corner. The figure gradually merged with the shadow.

In a luxurious hotel suite in the center of the city, Matou Sakura took a sip of the milk tea made from the Moon Spirit Essence Liquid. Blush, really good-looking.

"How is Kariya Matou?" El-Melloi II touched his chin, intending to restrain his craving for cigarettes. He looked at Sakura Matou who was sitting on the sofa and said, "Whether the potion is effective, I will There is plenty of time to review it.”

"Thank you, Mr. El-Melloi, but I don't need it." Matou Sakura put down the bone china cup and shook her head lightly. The gentle voice that was completely different from before was like this cup of milk tea, warming the heart, and said softly : "Uncle has been doing well recently. Occasionally, his fingers would move a few times. When I said something by his bedside, there was some reaction on his face. It is much better than a few years ago, and this is enough... For now."

"Sakura, you don't have to be polite if you need it. After all, you are my student, and so is your older sister Rin, so you..." El-Melloi II was slapped on the back, resisting the burning pain, he turned his head Glaring at the rider standing behind him like a high wall, he protested, "It hurts...!"

Rider glanced at him and said to Matou Sakura: "Oh, I'm sorry, little girl. My master doesn't seem to be very good at reading air, did he mention something that made you unhappy?" The appearance is rough but the mind is very delicate The rider noticed the girl's brief frown when his master just said the word 'Rin', and the smile he maintained was also frowned at that moment.

"..." El-Melloi II widened his eyes when he heard it, and turned his face after he realized it, and said slightly apologetically, "I was careless." It would be strange to say sorry, and I don't know anything else What can I say, the genius-headed El-Melloi was very distressed, but the girl was dazed for a few seconds before shaking her head lightly again, her smile remained the same as before.

"It's okay, this ah... Even if Sakura goes to avoid it, it can't be avoided, right? Rin is my older sister, but her personality is completely different from mine. Teacher, please don't say I'm the same as her. After all, I'm already from the Matou family. His heir." The words that sounded natural fell to El-Melloi II's ears, but they had other meanings, and he couldn't help feeling pity in his heart, and the girl raised her eyes, and her beautiful purple eyes were like the eyes outside the French window. The night sky is like a night sky, with broken stars gathered together, bright and moving, she said a little excitedly: "And, the Holy Grail can fulfill my wish, can't it? My wish is very simple, different from those illusory and huge wishes, what I asked for It's just that uncle can be as healthy as ordinary people."

"Sakura...Actually, if you give me a little more time..."

"No, I'm sorry, teacher... I don't want to wait any longer." Matou Ying frowned, with a sad expression, and she was a little sobbing when she interrupted El-Melloi II's sentence. She sighed and said, "Ten years, I have been waiting for ten years for my uncle to recover. Teacher, if it weren’t for you, my uncle would have died a few years ago. He has been asleep for ten years, and he has never opened his eyes and said a word to me! He is still alive! Even so, even so, he is still alive! I can hear the sound of his breathing and the beating heart under his thin chest!" The slender hands grasped the light-colored skirt tightly, and the nails scratched the delicate skin through the fabric. On the skin of her thighs, Matou Ying's eyes were sore, and the crying she suppressed turned into sobs again and again. She tried her best to calm down her emotions, trembling her lower lips, and continued: "But this... Is it alive?"

Can breathe and pant, have temperature and heartbeat.

But Matou Kariya will not wake up, and will fall asleep day after day, supported by magic potions. Even if she uses healing magic to heal Matou Kariya's gradually shrinking muscles every day, what does it mean? ?

Maintaining the illusion of being alive, can't speak or move, has no sense of everything in the world, and the back of the hand is full of pinholes.All he eats is liquid food, and he has to rely on help for daily life. The left half of his body, which was discarded ten years ago, still has the original scars. His pale hair is the same as his skin. Broken dead air.

Is this alive?Humans shouldn't be like this, no, it should be said that Matou Kariya shouldn't be like this.

He didn't deserve to end up like this.

"Uncle ended up like this because of me." With a sore nose and tightness in her chest, Matou Ying gritted her teeth tightly and said in a muffled voice, "For this kindness, I must fight for him. "

"Sakura, I know you are very anxious, but I told you what the prototype of the Holy Grail is. It is not a universal wish-granting machine." El-Melloi II said in a deep voice, "It will also grant wishes made by people." Deliver on the worst side."

"I know all of this, and I keep in mind what the teacher said." The tears did not fall, and the girl with a soft face has a strong heart. When she grows up, she can talk about the things that make her sad the most. Restraining her emotions so as not to let others see her side that was too out of control, Matou Sakura blinked, and the color of the water just now disappeared, she opened her eyes wide, and said seriously: "I have determination, I will It wasn't impulsive. Otherwise, I wouldn't have tried my best to win the competition place that belongs to my sister, and I would have stopped my biological father. I am the head of the Jiantong family, and I have the obligation to protect the blood of the Jiantong family."

"...Sakura, I'm sorry for asking you so, but..." El-Melloi II crossed his fingers on his knees, leaned forward, and asked, "Do you remember? The conditions for the activation of the Holy Grail, and then you It should also be clear that I will not allow rider to be one of the six victims again."

"I know, teacher, you have never lied to me. I am very happy about this. It is Sakura's luck to meet you." Matou Sakura squinted her eyes and smiled, she tilted her head with an innocent expression, and said "Sakura has her own plans, I can't tell the teacher yet, but... please rest assured, Sakura will not do anything that is not good for you and the rider." The eyelashes like butterfly wings fluttered a few times, and the corners of the mouth twitched. After a few points, he said meaningfully: "Besides, please don't stop me, teacher."

"The Nazis are very dissatisfied with my behavior. I don't know where the Holy Grail container is hidden." El-Melloi II said a little depressed: "This is my miscalculation, but I can tell you that the master of the caster is They are the remnants of the Nazi Party, and their own fighting power is not weak, if you face them, you must be very careful."

"Holy Grail container...?" Matou Sakura pursed her lips and thought for a while, then smiled and replied: "Thank you teacher for the information, I will remember it. As for the container, it doesn't matter, does it? Teacher, as long as I kill five When you are a servant, just use the command spell to leave the rider behind, and I will take care of the rest, so you don't have to worry too much about me."

As soon as the voice fell, the dark mist behind Matou Sakura slowly gathered into a tall figure.It faded away in the blink of an eye, revealing the melancholy and handsome face and upright figure of the purple-haired man. When Lancelot saw the guest sitting on the couch, he was slightly startled, but he bowed calmly on the surface. He bent over and said, "Master, I'm sorry for failing to complete the task."

"It's okay, just come back alive." Matou Sakura didn't look back, and explained to El-Melloi II with a smile: "This is my servant——berserker. I used a little trick to make him go crazy The value is called out but it can maintain sanity very well."

"This is really outstanding, Sakura." El-Melloi II looked Lancelot up and down for a while, and this gentleman who made people feel good about his appearance and behaved elegantly could be a berserker.It really surprised El-Melloi II, but thinking of the excellence of his students, he couldn't help feeling proud, and said to the rider who was already standing by his side: "Look, all of my students are so outstanding! "

"Yes, yes, Your Excellency El-Melloi II." Rider was amused by his master's flaunting expression, and looked at the silent Lancelot with round eyes under his thick brows, and said, "This is really, an accident."

"Huh?" El-Melloi II raised his head with a puzzled expression.

"The berserker who was wearing black armor ten years ago and could only scream without speaking human words was able to maintain this form. You do have some skills, little girl." Rider stroked his beard and said: "berserker Yo, I am Iskandar the Conqueror. After ten years, you, who are still sensible, should report your real name."

Lancelot didn't ask Matou Sakura's meaning, instead he straightened his body, the knight's noble temperament covered the gloom, and his calm eyes seemed to come alive, with a little lake light, Known as the Flower of the Knights, people couldn't take their eyes off him. He raised his low voice slightly, and said, "Lancelot, the Knight of the Lake."

"Sure enough." King Conqueror's bold laughter was loud and full of appeal, and he said without hesitation: "I guessed right ten years ago, Lancelot! Your king and I are good friends, are you sure?" You know, this time he also participated in the battle! Ah! It’s really a trick of fate to say so, you will definitely have another battle with the king you love!”

El-Melloi II frowned, but did not stop the rider from speaking.He knew that this carefree king would not listen to his obstruction, and if he spoke, it would make things even more chaotic.

"...I know." Lancelot replied in a deep voice. Rider and King Arthur are good friends. He can deduce this based on the memories left over from the previous time. He was not surprised that rider knew that King Arthur also participated in the war. On the contrary The doubts that had been troubling him all this time intensified.

Without sending out any familiars, his own master can perfectly grasp all the movements in this city.And in time to the minute and second, although there are not many words, it can help him every time.

Thinking of the slightly mad look of the girl in front of the window, reflected through the glass.As a berserker, Lancelot's heart sank, and he felt that there was some strange and familiar aura overflowing from Matou Sakura's body.

It's... an unknown feeling.

Lancelot did not continue to discuss this topic in depth, and said cleverly: "I met Archer. Surprisingly, this hero is also familiar to you and me."

"That golden pickup?" Rider's eyes widened, and he looked a little cute with a chubby look, and said, "Oh oh oh oh oh oh! This is really lively, poor Pandora City, it has been devastated!"

"No, he's okay. He obeyed the secrecy regulations very well, so I escaped unharmed. Archer is much stronger than before, but he is still so arrogant and underestimated the enemy, so he is still easy to deal with." Lancelot subconsciously Nodding his head, he let out a muffled 'hmm'.

"Ahahahaha, didn't that guy think about his own problems when you knocked him off the street lamp! Master, why don't you ask him to play a round, and I'll run over his arrogant face with the Shenwei wheel !" Rider laughed and patted his master on the back, fortunately, ten years have passed, the boy has become a man, and he can withstand the pain.

"Did you forget that you were killed by this arrogant guy last time..." El-Melloi II said depressedly: "It's better not to meet that kind of guy who is so strong that he can swallow the world, Don't waste my efforts!"

"Hey, it's just a joke, why be so serious!" rider sat beside El-Melloi II, his huge body made the soft sofa shake, and asked bluntly: "A capable little girl Yo, aren't you afraid that your servant will be merciful? His guilt towards his king won't dissipate so easily, and it's not a good thing for you to keep him rational." The voice sank For a few minutes, these words made El-Melloi II stunned for a moment.

But Matou Sakura chuckled, and Lancelot behind him lowered his eyes and returned to the taciturn look. The girl's tone was a little brisk and mischievous, and it sounded as sweet as sugar. She smiled and said, "Thank you for conquering Wang’s reminder, don’t worry, I will not be bitten by a bulldog, besides… Lancelot’s wish is also Sakura’s wish, his obsessions were resolved as early as last time, but this time Well... 呶!" Matou Ying pointed to the closed door and said, "He fell asleep inside, he is the one who feels the most guilty right now."

"It looks soft and weak, but it's scary to have so many eyes, little girl." Rider patted his thigh and said, "Okay! He has means and courage, and he is worthy of being my master's disciple!" It made El-Melloi II not happy at all, but rather inexplicably depressed.

"Hehehe..." Matou Sakura smiled instead of anger, and said, "Sakura is telling the truth. Isn't that right, berserker?" The ending sound was an arc, which touched the servant standing silently behind him, Matou Sakura Turning his face sideways, he looked at Lancelot with a smile on his face and said, "Isn't it?"

A deceptive voice can easily stir a man's heart.It didn't sound like the voice coming from Matou Sakura's mouth at all, but after carefully tasting it, I felt that the deceptive meaning was an illusion, the girl just lowered her voice a little.

"Yes, master." The servant-style answer made Matou Sakura smile even more happily.

Amidst the sweet girl's laughter, Lancelot slowly lowered his head, showing a humble posture, and the purple hair on both sides slid down to cover his flickering eyes.
