The Endless Shuttle

"Do you mean that you have a "relationship" that is sexually undesirable to me? "

Slightly wanted to get around the topic, but Rope didn't take it at all.

"what……"

The black-haired young man laughed, holding up a strand of Karen's silver hair with his hands slightly flirtatiously.

"Although the secret of slavery is a weakened variant, it does not have much effect, but if Karen simply speaks out, it will be good for both of us. The saint of France, Miss Joan of Arc has been here since the Holy Grail War. Well, it's no wonder that the little chalice will be brought to the church. Who is her Master? Yan Feng Lizheng? Or..."

The hand slid down along the long silver hair of Karen, and the index finger lightly tapped the back of the girl's hand which was lying flat on her slender legs.

Layers of white medical bandages wrapped the back of Karen's left hand very tightly.

"...Miss Karen Aldysia, how about you?"

In the little holy grail here, the awkward time of the war, plus the defeat of almost all the exhibitors, the reason for dressing up like this is not even a guess.

Rope confirmed the moment Karen appeared.

Ruler, she is the master of Joan of Arc.

"..."

The girl's gaze turned back from the cross.

Her golden eyes looked at Luo Pei, neither flustered nor fearful.

"Is Mr. Rope suspecting that the church is calling the heroic spirit in violation of its position? If you have any comments, please report it to the churches in Europe. I will actively accept investigations to prove my innocence."

Refused to admit it.

Rope is not in a hurry, he has already determined that the Holy Grail is here, so it will only be a matter of time before he gets it. For this girl who can be described as changing the trajectory of her life by his own hand, he doesn't want to solve the problem in a rough way.

"Then Miss Karen can explain what this bandage is about?"

"Scalded," Karen said.

"Presumably Mr. Rope, who lives well, is difficult to understand. Even the clergy have to eat. Except for the special period of this church, only my grandfather and I live in this church. Naturally, I am responsible for the housework. It is normal if I am injured. But that's it."

"Then let me help you."

The smile at the corner of Rope's mouth widened, and he grabbed Karen's wrist and said to the girl.

"It doesn't matter if you have a burn or a broken bone. Even if your hands and feet are cut off and the skin is peeled off, I can help you recover as you did before you were injured. Isn't it okay for girls to leave scars?"

"...This will not trouble you Mr. Rope."

Karen wanted to withdraw her hand, but found that Rope's five fingers were like iron tongs. Although it didn't cause much pain, she couldn't get away with her strength anyway.

"Can I think that you are threatening me with the words just now and the actions now?"

"of course not."

Luo Pei let go.

"I just want to see Miss Karen's "burn". "

"...Observing the girl's wound will make you feel happy. I seem to have gotten quite bad information."

Karen clasped her arms tightly and looked at Rope with disgust.

"If this goes on, you who gave me a terrible curse will soon not be satisfied with the original wounds, and choose to take the initiative to abuse the weak me? Let me wear a nun's clothes, and then you beat me with a whip Scarred?"

"Haha! How come, I don't bother to seek pleasure from her pain, when the person I care about is happy, I will feel sincere joy."

Rope laughed twice, resting his palm on the top of Karen's head, stroking her smooth long hair.

The black-haired youth leaned close to the ear of the silver-haired girl.

"I have other things to do tonight, Miss Karen, don't move on to the subject anymore."

He said softly.

"I said, I want to be friends with you, don't make me feel embarrassed. The meeting of Ruler's Joan of Arc and Karen is just accidental. The young nun does not need to take any responsibility. Return the little holy grail to me and I will deal with it. There won’t be any change in your life after Miss Saintess. Okay?"

"..."

The sound in her ears caused Karen to shift her gaze, looking at the tidy ground that had just been swept.

I'm afraid it's the current situation, right?

In the special contract concluded with the saint, although the conditions for staying out of the matter were put forward, Karen had also thought about the situation of face-to-face with other Masters like this.

The only thing to be thankful for is that the "acquaintance" sitting next to her is still mild.

However, it is only temporary.

He was tight-lipped in the Master's duties, but if he continued to fool around, he would offend the magician named Rope. Then, with the abnormality revealed in his inadvertent behavior and words, he shouldn't mind killing everyone in this church and then slowly find out the little holy grail.

Such a result will undoubtedly deviate from her path and plunge her into the tragedy of hell.

...Forget it, it was said long ago, there is no need to take her life for the Holy Grail War.

Karen made a wise decision.

She unwrapped the bandage on her left hand and peeled it off layer by layer. Only a stroke of crimson magic crystals appeared in Rope's sight.

The black-haired young man applauded gently and said with relief.

"Good boy, Miss Karen. I didn't disappoint my gentleness."

Without speaking, the silver-haired nun stood up from her seat and walked into the church.

When Rope finished counting the patterns on the baptistery, Karen walked out with a suitcase.

With the beating of the heart, the "navigator" made by Niyako became more unstable.

Stolen by Joan, the key to the Holy Grail War, the Little Holy Grail returned to Rope's hands again.

"In this way, the Holy Grail is in your hands." She said.

"No, it was in my hands from the beginning."

After confirming that there was nothing wrong with the box, Rope got up from the long wooden chair.

"Sorry for bothering you so late, Karen. If your previous behavior scared you, maybe I should invite you to have a cup of coffee when I meet again. I apologize."

"...Aren't you going to kill me?"
