[Fate] Box and Servant

Seven

The sanctuary that came into view was crazy and luxurious, with works of art everywhere.The portraits hanging on the walls on the left and right sides are all of Pandora's side face. She looks mournful, with her hands on her chest, her head bowed, tears hanging from the corners of her eyes, her benevolent and loving expression shines through the paintings. The paper seemed to fall into the viewer's heart, and the pain was uncontrollable. When the eyes couldn't help but look away, what they saw was the stone sculpture placed in front of the pillar, which had the same expression as in the painting, but at this time, Pandora was It is the person who looks at everyone who enters here with a sad expression.

This is the sanctuary belonging to Xingyin. Of course, there are also excellent products drawn and sculpted by him according to his hobbies. He heard the sound of footsteps, turned around on the small stage at the end, and saw the face of the box. The black-haired boy couldn't help laughing.

Halfway through the box, he stopped, and he couldn't help but tighten his grip on the handle of the knife, and said: "This place is really full of your evil taste, there are Pandora's faces everywhere, and there are also bewildered faces. Human magic, poor human beings have been cursed from the moment they stepped into this palace."

Xingyin didn't care about Box's words at all, and shook his head lightly, the ponytail hanging on his shoulders slipped down, his eyes very similar to Box's reflected a faint watery light under the reflection of the crystal lamp, and he used the most beautiful tone of voice to act like a spoiled child. He said: "No way, this is a job arranged by my mother. I can't refuse it. Fortunately, my ability has evolved to not only rely on singing, otherwise singing every day and night will make me hate myself. Voice."

What a strange boy.Saber, who stood silently behind him, observed carefully. From the very beginning, the expression he showed when he saw the box was not like the expression he had when he was about to face his sister who came to kill him. It was extremely indifferent. Those eyes, that voice It is full of unspeakable love.His facial features are exquisite but not as deep as those of Westerners. He looks completely Asian, but he is wearing a well-fitting court costume. The white and gorgeous bow tie and cumbersome cuffs make him even more handsome.Just like this palace, countless elements are blended together. Although it is beautiful, it always has an indescribable sense of weirdness.

Ordinary churches would not have a stage with a golden fence, but would have altars and huge stained glass, but there were none here, and the huge mural behind him made Saber feel chills down his spine.

From all the artworks, one can feel Xingyin's overly fanatical love for her mother, but the mural seems to be mocking something.He painted the sandbank with sprouts, the long lake connecting the skyline, Pandora, who was dressed in the sun, wearing a flowing gauze dress and wearing a laurel wreath, with a kind and peaceful expression, and the dissected abdomen, with realistic internal organs. With the unique technique, each blood vessel is carefully drawn, and the unique uterus of a woman is also dissected and opened. The four soft and white eggs are close to each other, and blood threads link them together. Together, it seems that the squirming of internal organs and the fluttering of blood lines can be seen in the blink of an eye.

Xingyin should be admiring his great mother, who used his body to block all dangers, and gave birth to them with all his strength, so he used the most tender heart to describe Pandora's face, but he seemed to be Disgusted of something, he mercilessly took out Pandora's internal organs and showed them in front of everyone.

At this point Saber can probably understand the bad taste Hako said - the fusion of beauty and ugliness.Undoubtedly, Xingyin thoroughly implemented this unique aesthetics in his life. Thinking that the slightly weak and handsome boy in front of him who looked only sixteen or seventeen years old was the one who mercilessly killed dozens of people in an instant. The devil, what she met and saw along the way made Saber feel normal.

"I tried my best to stop you, but it was useless. Sister, you are still here. You really can't hide." Xingyin said a little aggrieved, with a slow tone.

Box snorted and said, "You should first find out if I'm in the room or not. Look, it's a waste of effort, isn't it?"

"This... hey, even if you are here, it might not be able to kill you, can it?"

"Yo, you know it."

After hearing this, Xingyin smiled happily, nodded vigorously, and said, "Yeah! I know how strong my sister is!" Eyelashes fluttered up and down like butterfly wings, and the corners of the boy's eyes were slightly pale after saying this. Hong, but he continued: "Ah, I'm surprised, my sister didn't go to Nia first, but came to see me first. If I let her know, she will be angry, just like before, throwing things everywhere, That's a real headache, a savage who doesn't appreciate art at all."

"That's why you always say she's barbaric, right?" Box chuckled. Under such a tense atmosphere, she and Xingyin couldn't help but chat about some past things, but each sentence made it more serious. It made Saber feel uncomfortable, but Ji's expression remained unchanged, and he said as a matter of course: "You are in a city, it doesn't matter who comes first, anyway... you are going to die... our family... people?" As if hearing some joke, he couldn't help trembling all over his body, intermittent laughter overflowed, and after a while, he straightened up, wiped the corners of his eyes with his thumbs, and said, "Xingyin, stop talking nonsense. , I'm in a hurry, after killing you, you have to go find Nia."

"I don't want to be killed by you, sister." Xingyin pouted slightly, his voice was like marshmallows dissolved in hot chocolate, his throat was so sweet, his eyes were pleading, very pitiful I am so wronged, why does my favorite sister want to kill him? The sister who likes to listen to him humming the most, just now she mentioned the nursery rhyme without lyrics. He trembled his lips and muttered Muttered: "I don't want to be killed by you."

The bursting murderous aura and oppressive magic power rushed to Xingyin with the movement of the box swinging the machete, ah, this is her answer, the words are sometimes too ethereal, how many times has she said it The word 'kill' is gone, but Xingyin is still like this... the same as when she was a child.

"There's no way, Xingyin." Box frowned, suppressing his sourness, coaxing Xingyin, and said, "You know it best, my elf brother."

Xingyin foolishly looked at the box that was walking towards him step by step, and then stepped on his heart, the light flow from the blade slid and hurt his eyes, he really wanted to cry, really wanted to cry, but sister It has been said that crying children are not likable.

The sad-looking young man forced a smile, raised his hand, and pulled out the rapier at his waist without any hesitation. At the same time, the sound of boulders moving could be heard, turning slowly on one side of the wall. The sound of sticky footsteps came from it.

Saber reacted swiftly to block the monster that was about to attack the box. The blade rolled up the magic power and let it fling towards the entrance. Compared with the monster encountered in the crystal hall, this one was much smaller in size. With the help of the light from the corridor behind, The monster appeared.

In fact, at that moment, Zi was ready to fight back, and at this moment, she saw clearly what was attacking her.

Anger filled his whole body, and even his steady hands trembled with the beating of his heart. He suddenly turned around and shouted at the calm Xingyin: "Who did it?! No...it can't be You, you don't have this ability...could it be, could it be Pandora?! Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh , This attack that exhausted all his strength caused his jaw to burst open, and many slender wounds opened on his hand that was supposed to be used for painting. He lifted his foot and kicked directly on Xingyin's abdomen. With a little distance between each other, at this moment, the whites of Xiang's eyes were covered with bloodshot eyes, and she looked very pervasive. She said hoarsely, "This is the mother you adore, Xingyin!" With the hand holding the knife, the tip of the knife pointed at the mural behind the young man, pointing at the kind and beautiful face, the voice vibrating in the chest was full of blood, and he took a step forward, growling: "This is the mother... how can a person who can't do this?" The mother who turned the corpses of her children into monsters...Look at them! Look! This is how she treats the youngest children. This is not even a monster or a monster. Strange!"

"Why are you angry, sister?" Xingyin tilted her head with a puzzled expression, looked at the zombie who was confronting Saber, and said, "They are the third group, and they have never said anything to us. In a word, it’s useless to foolishly always think about the trash who is close to your mother and you, even if they are all gathered together, it’s still useless, even a projection can’t beat it.”

Xingyin was right, he said that this corpse monster with eight arms and four faces that looked like a meat ball was difficult to deal with, but this did not push Saber into a desperate situation.Once you memorized the various magical attacks of the corpse monster, you can easily block them. The only difficulty is the acid sprayed from the seam of the flesh. The end of the holy blue robe of the swordsman was corroded in a large area, gray and black. The edges are very ugly.

The faces on the corpse monsters kept moving their lips, they howled but couldn't make a sound, and black tears flowed out of their eyes, one by one, like cracks, scratched on their swollen bodies. Saber frowned, swiped her sword to bounce off the sourness that came again with the wind king barrier, and with a flick of her wrist, chopped off the limbs that were supporting her by the corpse.

They cried even harder, as if they heard Xingyin's words and blamed themselves, even the only trick that could hurt Saber was useless, even their hands and feet were cut off, and they couldn't stand up Getting up, wriggling on the ground like a flesh worm, howling silently.

Box felt her head hurt so badly that she wanted to cut off her own head with her own knife.But she couldn't die, she hadn't dealt with the matter completely, and her footsteps fell on the ground without a sound, and she couldn't even catch up with her figure.

Xingyin blinked briefly and lightly, then heard the sound of water gushing out of her left shoulder, smelled the bloody aura originating from herself, her abdomen was hit again, her ribs were shattered, and her stomach burst into pieces , the acid flowed out and eroded the rest of the organs, and the severe pain made him clearly understand the anger of the box.His face was held down, and he slammed it hard on the mural he had drawn by himself. He could hear the sound of his skull cracking again and again.

"I didn't kill them to see them degenerate like this...ah!!! Pandora Pandora Pandora!!!!" Box, who was close to madness, beat Xingyin irrationally, and the knife was thrown by her Off the stage, she used her body to ravage her younger brother as if venting her anger. Her eye sockets were like Xingyin, glowing a beautiful and bitter red. She was in real pain. She had a headache, her body hurt and her heart hurt so much that she couldn't breathe. .

"Why can't my younger brothers and sisters die peacefully? Why should their bodies be recovered? Is this love, Pandora, the love you have always said to us! If so, why would I kill them!" The box stopped, gasped for breath, took a small step back, and looked up at the face stained with Xingyin's blood.

It was her mother's face, beautiful and kind, the mother she once, now and will love deeply in the future.

She knew why the wights were crying, and what the squirming face was trying to say, they didn't understand why their mother dragged them out of death and into the abyss of despair, brains that had rotted It's full of sadness.

Only sadness, they don't know how to hate.

"Because... Mother just wants to see your current appearance... Uh! Cough cough cough cough...!" Xingyin bent down and vomited up many pieces of meat. He wiped his mouth, and the lotus leaf cuff was dirty A large piece, straightened his waist, and stood gracefully against the mural, the young man looked very indifferent, cold sweat dripped from his pale face, but his tone was still so gentle that he said: "Look at the way you are crazy about her!" .”

After hearing this, Box was stunned for a moment, then smiled wryly, stared fixedly at the face of Pandora in the painting, took a few steps back before turning around and jumping off the stage, picked up her knife, sighed, and faced the star again. Yin smiled miserably, and said softly: "Hey, let me chop off your head, and I will burn your body to the ground. My sister swears that she will never let Pandora bully you again."

Xingyin blinked mischievously, and said in a long voice: "No~ I've already said it, I don't want to be... hiss...!" He is firmly nailed to the mural.

The dark chain transformed from the end of the handle was wrapped round and round around Box's pale wrist. Holding the chain, she could feel Xingyin's beating heart in her palm. She didn't take a step forward, just stood there Then, he smiled as usual, and said dotingly: "You will be punished if you are disobedient, brother."

"Ahh...I really miss it." Xingyin lowered her eyes, smiled happily, and cried with a smile. The crystal tears finally fell. He is a child, and he has always been in Xi's heart. He also wants to Live willfully, but I can't... Xingyin said with a strong weeping voice: "I'm sorry, sister. I still cry, I can't help it, I'm just a crybaby. Although my sister always scolds me, but Whenever I cry, he hugs me to comfort me, and my elder brother also touches my head or hooks my shoulders... How good it was... before. I can fully understand the sweetness of nostalgia and memories that humans say, I I want to go back to the old days... Big Brother, Sister, Me, Sister, the days when we didn’t even have names.”

Perhaps there was a tranquility after the storm. At this time, Xiang's face was expressionless, and there was no trace of mad anger in his eyes. On the contrary, there was endless pain and helplessness. Xingyin looked towards Xiang, smiling like a fool, and His appearance and clothes are not worthy at all, he said: "I don't want to die, but I can't escape without being demonized, but ah, that doesn't conform to my persistent aesthetics... the coexistence of beauty and ugliness, I only have beauty If I demonize my appearance and voice, I will lose everything and become a complete ugliness. The nature that comes from my mother's blood... I love her so much, and I hate her so much, But even so, I don't want to be killed by my sister, I don't want to die by your hands."

"What stupid things are you talking about?" Box opened his legs and walked towards Xingyin, the cold voice of the chain echoed, as if calculating how much distance was left between her and him.

Xingyin said anxiously: "I'm going to die! I'm going to die, sister! I promise you, I swear to you! Stop, I beg you." The boy's pleading voice fell tremblingly, like a sad The tinder ignited the dark red stage, and in the blink of an eye, the dazzling fire stopped the box. Through the flames, Xingyin smiled ostentatiously, and said, "Look, sister, I didn't lie, did I?" He held the knife with his right hand He pulled it out and threw it to the box with all his strength.Oops, I don’t even have the energy to laugh anymore, this is not going to work, Xingyin thought in a daze, he tried to open his mouth, and said to the box: “Even if I crush my heart, I can’t die, so sister, please Remember..." The explosion sounded as the flames spread, the huge crystal lamp fell to the ground and made a loud noise, and the scorching magic power filled the entire palace, but none of these could cover up the gentle and weak voice of the young man. Feeling the pain, he tried his best to convey his voice to the box's ears, and said, "I committed suicide, not you. Please... remember, sister."

The flames from hell danced enchantingly, as if they had found a stamen, and the fiery red petals wrapped the young man layer by layer until they completely swallowed those black eyes glistening with water.

Ji opened her similar eyes wide, and stretched out her hand subconsciously. The flame touched her palm slightly, and there was a sharp pain. At this moment, Saber suddenly stepped forward, and tightly held Ji's injured hand, which had been burned to the point of erosion. The flesh was tightly attached to the palm of the hand without the silver armor.The sticky feeling was uncomfortable, and the oppressive feeling doubled the pain. After running out of the back box of the crystal hall, she came back to her senses. Seeing the expression of the blonde servant, she frowned, and shook off the hand holding her. Looking at him, he hugged the man's thin waist tightly, and with both legs, he rushed out of the palace with Saber.

The night has already fallen, and they returned to the starting point and stood on the roof, looking at the burning palace in the distance, the wind encouraged them and facilitated their extinguishment, no matter how prosperous the place will be, it will collapse one day. The building was eventually reduced to ashes.No one can survive this fire, especially Chest and Star Silver.

The fire has completely dissipated, but the box is still standing motionless, with no intention of leaving at all, and Saber doesn't say much, standing silently behind her, the scenery in front of him must be completely different from that in Jae box's eyes, She could see lots and lots of things or memories in it, but he couldn't.

After an unknown amount of time, Box finally opened his lips and said softly: "Xingyin told me that he committed suicide, not by my hands."

Saber's blue eyes flickered for a moment, he nodded and responded, he knew this, after killing the corpse monster, he turned around and saw Xingyin who was crying so badly, Saber could hear every word , but even so, Saber didn't know what to say, and he didn't think the box expected him to answer.

Then, the boy who was smiling brightly in the raging fire, the boy who was crying, said with the most beautiful voice: "It would be great if we could go back... that... just the four of us, having each other is enough day."
