Stray Chapter 2: Sakura Matou


"Then be careful yourself. It's best to let your servant move out. Even if he doesn't get burned, he may be deprived of oxygen..."

Xia Ran nodded, glanced at the arrogant figure in black armor that seemed to be a little slender and thin, then turned and left this disgusting underground insect bank, despite all the black mud, rancid breath and those more than mosquitoes And ** bugs-

It was all swept away by his fire, but it was always a disgusting place, and he didn't want to stay here any longer.

Watching the departure of this strange magician, Matou Kariya struggled to stand up. Although the other party obviously did not have any malicious intentions, the origin was unknown, and his intentions were indeed objective facts.

It's just because the situation is urgent, it's impossible to have a detailed conversation at this time, and we can be honest with each other. We can only gamble and choose to trust the other party who has shown sincerity. In Matou Kariya's mind, the impression score is definitely the last one.

That disgusting old man, an outsider magician, even Matou Kariya himself doesn't know the correct age. As if joking, the identity of the old guy registered on the family register is the father of the Kariya brothers.

But a terrifying fact is that in the genealogy, among the great-grandfathers and the ancestors of the next three generations, there are people named "Zi Yan"... This is not a mere coincidence and similarity, but because of those people Both are the identities used by Matou Zaiyan.

No one knows how many generations this old undead monster has ruled the Matou family. It is cunning, cruel, and has a strange obsession with survival. In order to prolong its life, it can use others and sacrifice it to the end.

I hate the rotten soul and rotten body, and I don't want to die without success. Over time, it has turned into an obsession, so I turn myself into a bug, parasitize others, and prolong my life...

I don't like the sun, and I usually hide in dark places. Whether it's character or personality, it's like a damp and disgusting slug...

It is precisely because Matou Kariya subconsciously does not believe it, and vaguely understands that no matter what he does, he will not be able to save Sakura, and Matou Zaiyan will not let Sakura go in the end. It's just wishful thinking.

It's just that there is really no other way to go. Even if he knows it's an illusory hope, he can only go on...

However, that didn't mean he would accept all this willingly, so when Xia Ran suddenly came out, he decisively chose this strange magician. There is no need for much communication at all, no need to prove anything at all, and the two sides have reached a consensus.

It seems that there are some problems, but you only need to know the mentality of Matou Kariya's broken jar at the moment, you can understand——

As long as you can kill Matou Dirty Inkstone, that's the best result!

No matter what, it can't be worse than it is now!

——That's probably what I think, anyway, I'm already in such a desperate situation, or if I take this rare opportunity to gamble, I might actually have a chance.

Of course, it also has something to do with Xia Ran's resolute and resolute attack. He directly stabbed him in the face with a dagger, and then the magic blade pierced his head with a single blow, making Matou Zuiyan instantly feel the real meaning. Shattered to pieces.

Then the big fireball was seamlessly connected, accurately destroying the black mud magic pool with one shot, and then set off a raging flame like purgatory around, sweeping the entire underground insect bank... From killing to destruction, it is so accurate and efficient.

This shocked Matou Kariya very intuitively, making the latter almost unable to react immediately.

Not only did he immediately set up a more mysterious and powerful image of a terrifying magician in this man's mind, but also because Matou Zaiyan had no power to fight back, he was killed without even a single cry. The killing scene shook the terrifying and irresistible impression left by the latter in the hearts of men...

That's why Matou Kariya was able to make up his mind so quickly. It can be said that this series of calculations are interlinked and indispensable.

If this is not the case, then change the method. For example, after Xia Ran finds an opportunity to quietly approach Matou Kariya, hoping to join forces with him, it is estimated that it will not be so smooth.

Because after all, isn't that what humans are? Even though he knew it was impossible, he still had an unrealistic fantasy.

"I hope there will be no accidents, everything will go smoothly..." Matou Kariya slowly supported, got up from the ground, and looked at the mad figure he summoned, "This magician, It must be for the Holy Grail War, right?"

But he doesn't care at all. As long as the opponent is better than that undead monster and can get Sakura out of the **** of the Matou family, then Matou Kariya doesn't mind handing over his life to the opponent at all.

Anyway, he only has one month left to live. As long as his last wish can be truly guaranteed, then there is nothing that cannot be given up.

Glancing at the three Command Spells on the back of his hand, Matou Kariya gritted his teeth and stood up from the ground little by little. This is his last bargaining chip... No matter what, he must grab it. Live this chance!

……

……

Xia Ran doesn't know Matou Kariya's mental activity at this time, but she can probably figure it out——

It started when the other party didn't ask about his origins at all, but made a decisive decision immediately after being shocked and chose to cooperate with him.

The initial plan to gain trust was very smooth, and the results were very good. It can only be said that all this was set off by Matou's dirty inkstone. If it wasn't so bad for that disgusting old bug, he wouldn't be so smooth...

Not long after leaving the underground insect bank, Xia Ran didn't choose to run all the way, because he also knew that the Matou family's mansion was a place that the old guy had run for hundreds of years, and he didn't know how many troublesome methods were hidden. .

Although attacking from the outside and going out from the inside are completely different, it can be said that they are completely different things. The former will be attacked indiscriminately, and the latter should not trigger the magic's defensive counterattack mechanism.

Otherwise, ordinary people other than magicians would not be able to survive in this mansion.

But it's still the same sentence - be careful sailing the ship for ten thousand years, and he doesn't need to worry too much now.

But in the corridor above the underground room, Xia Ran saw the poor girl directly. The two met suddenly in the corridor without any warning... It can't be said that there was no warning, because the Only Sakura herself was frightened.

In an instant, a timid expression appeared on her small face, and she subconsciously took a few steps back, looking at the dark passage from the end of the corridor with the sound of footsteps in fear. The figure walking up.

But after a few seconds, the little girl was slightly taken aback, because the figure who came out of the nightmarish underground room was not anyone she knew well.

Neither grandfather nor uncle Kariya.

It was a young man who had never been seen before. He looked about sixteen or seventeen years old. He was wearing a black robe that seemed to contain a mysterious meaning, and walked up the dark stairs slowly.

"Yo good evening..."

Seeing the little girl, Xia Ran raised her hand to say hello, and at the same time let herself show the warmest and most sincere smile.

However, the little girl in the corridor ahead was even more frightened and even shrank. She pursed her lips tightly, her thin shoulders trembled slightly, standing alone in the empty dark corridor, she seemed very helpless and fearful.

Seeing this, Xia Ran was silent for a while, then sighed. He quickened his pace a little, came to the front of the little girl, reached out and touched her head, the little girl's body trembled obviously, and closed her eyes subconsciously.

"It's alright now, and no one can hurt you anymore, don't worry..." A gentle voice entered her ear, just like the temperature on the palm of her hand, gently rubbing The strength of moving her hair is also very gentle.

The little girl opened her eyes in confusion, just to see the boy withdrew his palm with a slightly puzzled expression.

"Aren't you there? Um..."

Xia Ran found that the situation was slightly different from what she expected, so she whispered a word, and in an instant, the great source magic in the surrounding air was pushed by an inexplicable force, turned invisible, and captured by material technology Unreachable "wave".

Like a bat emitting ultrasonic waves towards the surroundings, and then relying on echolocation to confirm the surrounding objects and orientation, Xia Ran directly passed the "sound", making all the vitality in front of his eyes.

There was nothing suspicious about Matou Sakura in front of him. At first, he thought it was the old guy who saw the situation was bad and ran away.

However, after careful comparison, he confirmed that there was no other aura on Matou Sakura's body. After thinking about it carefully, Xia Ran felt that he might have made a mistake.

Mato Zuoyan hid his body on Matou Sakura's body. It should be after the Holy Grail War. It seems that because he obtained the fragments of the Holy Grail, that old guy has the conditions to do so...

As for now...

Xia Ran frowned slightly, but then laughed again. Although the situation was a little unexpected, does it make any difference? It just proves that Matou Kariya's sacrifice was still effective in protecting the little girl in front of him, and Matou Zaiyan didn't become more mad before his defeat.

But that doesn't change the old guy's ending, that thing must die today—

Because Matou Zuoyan is afraid of death, it can be confirmed that it is definitely still hidden in the Matou family's mansion. The reason is very simple, no matter how the old guy continues his life, he will only survive and become weaker.

It is not to maintain health and vitality, true immortality, he is relatively vulnerable and will only hide in the safest place.

Then, when I don't know that I will suddenly encounter such a terrible attack tonight, there is no place for Matou Zaiyan to be in business for so long, with heavy defenses, complete Is the Matou mansion under his control safer?

The answer is no, it can't put its own body in other places for no reason, it will be more dangerous.
