Time goes back to when Kim Shiny first appeared-

"You guy - all the time. Yan Ye looked at the man in front of him, and a ridiculous sense of fate suddenly came to his heart.

His speech, his mannerisms, that noble temperament. Since the day he appeared in front of Aoi and Goose Night, this man has been "perfect". That kind of elegance and calmness has always made the wild goose night have a sense of "drop".

In order to catch up with the man in front of him, Yan Ye transformed himself in two years, making himself elegant and noble, but when the two faced each other again, a feeling of inferior counterfeit was still shrouded in Yan Ye's body, yes, at this time, he stood face to face with Tosaka Shichen, and he looked as dazzling as a shoddy fake put with the real thing.

Tosaka Shichen was a little surprised by the sudden appearance of the "guest", but under the Tosaka family's family motto of "be elegant", he still had that decent aristocratic demeanor. The keen look in his narrowed eyes showed his calmness before the battle, but it was undoubtedly the biggest provocation for Yan Ye.

"I thought that the master of the Maki family was only the legendary untalented Maki Tsuruno, but I didn't expect you to ...... Hehe, I gave up the Demon Dao, but I still have an obsession with the Holy Grail...... The ugliness of you alone is enough to disgrace the entire Maki family. Shi Chen's tone was elegant and decent, but the content pierced Yanye's heart.

Yan Ye stared at Shi Chen deadly, but he still spoke, and the sound of gold and iron was convenient for him to face him.

"Assassin, open me more, this battle, the heroic spirit must not interfere!" Feng Xue in the Berserker posture stopped the assassin's trick and warned in a hoarse voice, accompanied by his words, countless monsters crawled out of the twisted shadows.

Countless monsters surrounded the entire space, and in the next moment, the entire Tosaka Mansion was transformed into a tall Colosseum.

"Don't worry, I won't make any attacks, and I won't have any settings that are unfavorable to you, this battle is just a ...... for the two of you" Feng Xue said with a smile, not at all like what a berserker should look like, after getting used to one person and No. 3, becoming one person and No. 2 has room for free.

Yan Ye didn't have any psychological fluctuations about this, his eyes were still staring at Shi Chen-"Tosaka Shichen, I only want to ask you one word...... Why did you entrust Sakura to the dirty inkstone?"

“…… What?"

Hearing the unexpected question, Shi Chen frowned.

"Is this something you should be concerned about right now?"

"Answer me, Shi Chen!"

Shi Chen sighed and said to the excited Yanye.

- You don't have to ask. I just hope that my beloved daughter can have a happy future. ”

"What...... What?"

After receiving an incomprehensible answer, a temporary blank appeared in Yanye's brain. When Yan Ye froze, Shi Chen said in a flat tone.

"Magicians who get twins will have troubles - secret magic can only be passed on to one of them. This is the dilemma that there will always be a child reduced to mediocrity no matter what. ”

Mediocrity –

This sentence echoed in the blank mind of the wild goose. Sakura, who has lost her smile, and the appearance of frolicking with Rin and Aoi...... Shi Chen's words were mixed into his small happy memories.

The appearance of the mother and daughter a long time ago - this man, with just one sentence of "mediocrity", gave up?

"My wife, in particular, is very good as a mother. Whether it's Rin or Sakura, they were born with the same rare talent. The two daughters must have the protection of the famous demon family.

Taking away the potential of one for the sake of the future of the other - as a father, no one wants such a tragedy to happen. ”

The reason that Shi Chen gushed out was completely incomprehensible to Yanye—no, he didn't want to understand. Even if he understood only a small part of this magician's theory, he felt like he would vomit on the spot.

In order to continue the talents of the two sisters, one of them had to be given away as an adopted daughter. Therefore, the request of the Lady of the Kirino is undoubtedly a gift from heaven. As one who knows the existence of the Holy Grail, the more likely it is to reach the 'Root'. Even if I can't finish it, there will still be Rin, and if Rin can't finish it, there will still be Sakura, and there will always be someone who will inherit the long-cherished wish of the Tosaka family. ”

Why is he able to tell such a desperate truth quietly?

At the same time, if you aim for the path of "roots", this means-

“…… Do you fight each other?between two sisters?!"

Facing Yan Ye's questioning, Shi Chen laughed out loud and nodded with a cold expression.

"Even if it leads to such a situation, it will be a blessing for the last generation of my race. If you win, the glory will be your own, and even if you lose, the glory will go to the name of your ancestors. Such a no-brainer duel is exactly what you dream of. ”

"You're crazy!"

Facing the gnashing of his teeth, Shi Chen just glanced at it coldly and shouted mockingly.

"It's in vain to tell you. You don't understand the nobility of the Demon Dao at all, the deviant guy who once was. ”

"Don't talk nonsense!" Jian Tong Yanye didn't want to ask anymore, he already understood his brother's (referring to Feng Xue) words, the relationship between him and Shi Chen was not just a rival in love, the most fundamental contradiction was actually this difference in philosophy.

He's just a mortal, not a magician who pursues the roots, this individual named Yanye, is just pursuing the happiness that the world should have, and at this moment he regrets it incomparably, regretting that he left the house just because of the fear of insect magic.

Not regretting giving up magic, but because his abandonment pushed Aoi to this despicable magician who was desperate for the sake of magic!

That's right, despicable, this is a very interesting adjective, although Yan Ye and Shi Chen have completely different styles, but at this moment, they label each other as "despicable" at the same time.

"I already understand......" Yan Ye's face changed, no longer the elegance of the disguise, but an extreme ordinariness, he has realized that what he is pretending to be and hoping for, he no longer needs to imitate the hour, or rather, he feels that Shi Chen is not worthy of being imitated by him!

"You have no attachment to family or love in your heart, and what you hold in your filthy heart, which is gracefully decorated, is nothing but the ambition of a magician, you despicable magician!"

"Despicable? Magicians are 'powerful' from the moment they are born. And, one day, it will get 'more power'. Until this fate is realized, this responsibility flows in the 'blood'. This is to be born as the son of a magician. ”

Shi Chen said coldly, raised his wand, and unleashed the flame spell from the huge ruby inlaid with the wand head.

The defensive array, which depicts the image of the Tosaka family's crest in the air, turns into a red lotus fire and burns the night air. It's an offensive defense that burns everything it touches. Although this seems a little childish in front of a layman-like enemy, it is not at all merciful.

Because—

"Since you refused to inherit the family business, the magic of Maki was in Sakura's hands. I have to thank you for that...... I will never forgive you, though. ”

"Won't forgive?" Yan Ye suddenly let out a sneer, and then, a power beyond Shi Chen's comprehension was revealed in front of his eyes.
