Zongman: Beginning with the Killer Queen - Chapter 34 The Second Contract
Facing Roland’s declaration, Matou Zouken only felt a chill.
He recalled his own words carefully, did he say anything special? How did this guy come to the level of not being a human being?
Isn’t this guy broken?
Considering Roland’s combat strength, he might blow up the Matou family after going mad, which is contrary to Matou Zouken’s style of acting out of sight and planning behind his back.
Thinking of this, he pretended to cough a few times, and let the black-haired young girl who was hiding behind the door come out.
“Your magic power channel is ready,” Matou Zouken said in a deep voice, “Although you are still immature as a magician, it is still enough as a magic power source. Caster is a job agency that can collect magic power by itself. The magic provided is only to maintain their existence.”
As if afraid of Roland’s dissatisfaction, Matou Zouken described the advantages of Matou Sakura in short words.
But Roland didn’t pay attention to these at all. He first glanced at the young girl’s hair color, and then paused for a while on the young girl’s hands unconsciously.
“This child is Matou Sakura, who was adopted from the Tohsaka family. You can rest assured that the old bug has not been implanted. After that, you can use her as you like. If she is still alive after the Holy Grail War, It can also be handed over to old waste for utilization.”
After noticing Roland’s gaze, Matou Zouken let out a vicious and pleasant laugh.
Now, the sanction against Kariya Matou has also been fulfilled. It must be very interesting when that guy found out that his biggest goal had been handed over to others after he killed him.
“By the way, there is also your holy relic, which is the best among the casters owned by the old man,” Matou Zouken handed a small box to Roland, and continued, “If the war starts, I still hope Don’t forget your promise, kill Darnic first.”
“The class chosen by the Matou family this time is Berserker. If it goes well, you can also provide a little help.”
“I see. It’s almost eleven o’clock. I’m going back to rest first.”
Roland nodded, and left the gate of Matou’s house without any unnecessary response. Matou Ying, who had been ordered a long time ago, obediently followed behind Roland. It was clear that she had changed hands again, but her expression remained unchanged. It’s a big change, and it doesn’t look like the mentality that a six or seven-year-old girl should have.
Looking like a puppet without a soul, Roland subconsciously slowed down, and Matou Sakura also consciously slowed down, always keeping a close distance from Roland.
However, it is hard to imagine that this girl who looks very quiet and is as cute as a doll has no fear of going with strangers.
Is it because of the experience of a deeper horror? Roland glanced at Matou Sakura’s eyes. It was different from the simple numbness caused by the horror. Is the damage worse?
But Roland didn’t intend to treat Matou Sakura either, he took the initiative to speak in an unenthusiastic tone.
“Your name is Matou Sakura, right? I’m Roland.”
Matou Sakura raised her head slightly, staring at Roland’s back, her eyes still unmoved.
Roland didn’t care about the little girl’s silence, and continued.
“First of all, you need to understand that your grandfather has already given you to me. You have to be clear about your position, and for a period of time after that, I will need your presence. I will not ask you for anything beyond my ability. The range requirements, but you can’t make me mess up.”
“Finally,” Roland turned his head and looked at Matou Sakura, “Although I don’t think you will have such delusions, it’s better to declare in advance that I won’t let you go, whether you go back to Matou’s house, or It’s better to go back to Tohsaka’s house.”
Logically speaking, Roland should say some magnanimous words at this time to give Matou Sakura psychological comfort, but he is unwilling to do so.
This magic power channel was traded by him in this Holy Grail War at the risk of his life,
This is Roland’s real contribution, and he was not the instigator of Matou Sakura’s tragic experience, so why should he feel guilty towards Matou Sakura?
“Well, I probably understand your situation, and sometimes I do have some sympathy. As an adult, maybe I should say something right, and promise you freedom after the Holy Grail War is over.”
“But I don’t want to.”
Roland stared at Matou Sakura calmly, “What belongs to me, unless I want it, I will never give it to others.”
From childhood to adulthood, perhaps because of his family experience, Roland valued his own things very much, and it was the same when playing games. He hoarded a lot of things that he didn’t need at all, and he didn’t want to throw them away.
“—Perhaps, I still haven’t been able to become a correct adult.”
Roland smiled self-deprecatingly, and looked at Matou Ying, “You have to be aware of this, Miss Matou Ying.”
I don’t know if it was because Roland’s words were too off-line, Matou Sakura froze for a moment, then she turned to Roland and showed a pleasing smile.
“Yes, Lord Roland, as long as you need me, I will never leave your side.”
“Ah…” Perhaps because this answer was too mature, Roland tilted his head at a loss and looked at the little girl.
Compared with the distance of a few meters just now, Matou Sakura is now following behind him like a little tail. Is this a little closer?
No matter what the situation is, whether it’s Kirei or Usei Ryunosuke, it’s the same. They suddenly get close to each other a lot. I didn’t say a big reason, I just expressed my heart.
Roland turned his head in doubt, stopped thinking about this question, and continued walking forward.
After a while, he finally returned to his residence and waited for a while, then sat obediently on the sofa with Matou Sakura.
“After that, we will start summoning the heroic spirits. Your grandfather told you what to do, right?”
After getting a positive response, Roland nodded, “Before that, wait for me for a while.”
After getting the answer, he no longer intends to wait any longer. Today, he will hold the shortcut to eternal peace of mind in his hands!
——The key to all souls, give me the soul of the covenant Holy Master.
After giving the order in his heart, Roland’s face suddenly became morbidly pale, and the All Souls Key in his hand emitted silver light again, slowly flowing into his body.
Suddenly, his senses were infinitely magnified, as if his soul was about to enter deep space, his vision began to become blurred, and he was in a trance for a while, with a sense of tired sleepiness every time he blinked.
“It’s a mistake, it’s different from that time with Yoshikage Kira, as expected of the red Qiling…”
In the end, Roland still lost consciousness, his body shook twice, and fell on Matou Ying beside him.
“Lord Roland?”
Matou Sakura let out a small exclamation, just about to reach out to help Luo Lan, but stopped.
Because, even though he hadn’t woken up yet, Roland’s eyelids were still slightly open. At this close range, Matou Sakura could clearly see that it was different from the dark and deep eyes before.
——Now Roland’s entire eye sockets have been replaced by scarlet light.
The dividing line between the whites of the eyes and the pupils could not be seen there at all, but a mass of crimson, dark, and chaotic light shone, bright and dark like breathing, like a flickering flame.
