Chapter 9: The Loneliness of the Servant

"Spells?" Rowe seemed to understand what Messery wanted to help herself, "Are you the Master of the Ed Family?"

Messery nodded, looking at her expression as if she was reluctant to tell Rowe about it, her hands rubbing together as if she was tangled, but in the end she said the full content of the request: "Rowe Hidley, can you help me and help the Ed family get out of this Holy Grail War safely?"

Rowe didn't know how to reply to him, or what he was thinking about now was Messery's behavior, the adoring looks, and the chance encounter in the library. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

If all this was arranged by her, it is not impossible.

In that case, Rowe could be sure that she was approaching her with some kind of purpose, and there was already a more powerful Ermelo family to help herself, so what reason was there to help a low-level magic family like the Eddard family?

Probably because Rowe still thinks that Messery didn't mean it.

There was nothing wrong with tonight's encounter, but the most important thing was the girl's adoring eyes and gentle personality, which made Luo Wei unsure if she was the one who would deliberately arrange this to happen.

So Rowe didn't know how to answer her.

But it didn't take long for Miss Messery to come up with a solution.

"Rovi, you've been co-opted by the Ermelo family, aren't you? The lecturer has been looking for you a lot lately, and I wonder if that's the case. As she spoke, Messery extended her hand with the spell engraved on it to Rowe.

"But this is not the Holy Grail War that our Elder family wants to participate in, and one day this spell suddenly appeared on my hand, and I don't know what to do. As she spoke, the girl was still a little crying, feeling unfortunate that she had fallen into a fighting battle.

"So..... So ......" Messeri looked very anxious, probably trying to say something but couldn't organize the words, which really made Rowe feel distressed.

"Do you want to do the same as I did, to help the Ermelo family?" Rowe tried to say what Messeri wanted to say.

If the Ed family has no hope of going to war, then it is probably the safest way to go to one side's big family, but the problem is that Rowe doesn't think that the person chosen by the Holy Grail will have no hope of going to war.

The Master chosen by the Holy Grail is a magician who wishes to make a wish for the Holy Grail as the Holy Grail deems appropriate, and if the Holy Grail chooses the Master, there should be no reason not to want to participate in the Holy Grail War.

Messery didn't speak, just pursed her lips and nodded softly.

"I don't have a way to respond to your request right now. "Because in fact, Rowe has not been officially recognized by the Ermeiro family, and now it can be said that it is difficult to protect himself, how can he have the extra strength to manage others.

"To be honest, I haven't been recognized by the Ermelo family now, and I'm the only one who wants to believe in my ability. ”

The current situation that Luo Wei said made the girl bow her head in disappointment. She also understands the current situation, and probably doesn't expect Luo Wei to help herself, take 10,000 steps back, Luo Wei's relationship with Messeri is just an ordinary classmate relationship, why do you need to risk it for her family's affairs?

The two didn't speak for a long time, and there were a few cars driving on the road behind Rowe, and the people inside saw the appearance of Rowe and Messery, and thought that it was a lovelorn couple who broke up and made the final separation.

"I'm sorry, Luo Wei, please forget what I said earlier. With that, Messery turned around and opened the door to the house and returned to Ed's house.

Rowe just sighed and left, for he really didn't have much experience to think about Messery.

When I got home, I saw X excitedly pounce and stand in front of Rowe.

"Master, guess what day it is?"

The girl's happy appearance made Luo Wei immediately forget what had just happened, no matter what, the most important thing is tomorrow.

"X, I'm not good at riddles, just say it. "Rowe really wasn't very good at guessing puzzles, because he couldn't understand why he was doing something that was boring and meaningless, no matter what kind of riddle it was, it was too simple and boring.

"Hey, hey~" X took out the prepared surprise from behind his back and handed it to Luo Wei: "Master, happy birthday!"

The beautifully packaged gift box, with a faint creamy aroma, and what X said, reminded Luo Wei that today was his birthday.

The last time I had a birthday was probably before the death of my parents, that is, four years ago, and in the past four years, Luo Wei gradually forgot his birthday, but he didn't expect that he would summon a servant who had not been known for a few days.

"X, how did you know my birthday?" took the cake from X's hand, although it was not big, but it was also the best gift Luo Wei had received in the past four years.

"It was written here by the Master's mother. X walked over to the desk and pulled out a small notepad from the bottom drawer.

It was the notepad that Rowe's mother used to write a diary when she was alive, and probably in her spare time after returning from work, X turned over the room, and by the way, read the things she was interested in.

Although the last time X sent Uncle Rowe's letter, Rowe's heart almost jumped, but this time, Rowe is very grateful to his servant.

X handed the notepad to Rowe, who took it, opened it and looked at the old pages, which recorded a mother's love for her son.

"On July 21, Luo Wei read another magic book today, and although he shouldn't need it in the future, it was a joy to see his son continue to learn. ”

"On July 22, Rowe's uncle was warned by the people of the Clock Tower again, and he might be kicked out of the Tower of Clocks if this continues, but he prepared a birthday present for Rowe today, I don't know why the people of the Tower of Clocks framed him for harassing girls?"

"On July 23rd, Luo Wei's birthday, the four of us in the family celebrated our son, but Luo Wei seemed to be a little resistant to his uncle, maybe he will have to grow up a little to judge some things more accurately. ”

Because of the death of his parents, Luo Wei just sealed these things in his desk, and had no intention of taking them out to recall, but at this glance, it seems that some things have become different.

Before, Luo Wei was a little strange, since it was his uncle who harassed other female students, then why did his parents help his uncle send a letter to Miss Arlo? But Miss Arlo's attitude recently, and what was written in this notepad, made Luo Wei have a new judgment.

It's not that Uncle Rowe often harasses girls, but that the Ermelo family doesn't approve of his affair with Miss Arlo, so they use the power of the family to get the Tower to announce that Uncle Rowe's uncle is a harasser, so that he can be kicked out of the Tower.

But even so, Luo Wei's attitude towards his uncle's letters in the past four years is not very acceptable, although the cause of Luo Wei's parents' death can be generally located as overwork, but this is not to say that it has nothing to do with him, but he does not have a sense of remorse.

X watched Luo Wei fall into deep thought with the notepad, and suddenly felt lonely again, the other day was the master who fell asleep on the bed as soon as he came back, and didn't say a word to himself. And now, even though he was celebrating the Master's birthday, he was lost in thought, as if he didn't exist.

Doesn't it really mean that you don't need to exist?

In the present world, these days, I didn't let myself fight, I just let myself go out to work. Although in Rowe's opinion, it was necessary to make ends meet, but for X, it seemed to be the reason why the Lord wanted to support himself.

"Master. ”

The soft call made Luo Wei come back from his thoughts, watching X's expression change, from happy to a little lonely and uneasy.

"Don't you need me?"

"Huh?" Luo Wei didn't know why X asked this question, because he always felt that he was fortunate to have X here, so he could go to the library to study with peace of mind, how could he not need it?

"Because the Master has been sleeping since he came back recently, and he doesn't need me to do anything, I wonder if the Master doesn't need me?"

"How could it be!" Rowe put the cake and notepad in his hand on the desk next to him, and looked X in the eye.

"X, because of you, I can study in the library with peace of mind, you see that the food I eat every day when I come back is earned by your part-time job, and with you I know that there is a Holy Grail War in London now, and today you also celebrate my birthday, how can I not need you? ”

"But the Master. X was still a little skeptical of Luo Wei's statement: "You didn't assign me to fight, the essence of the servant is to fight, and win the Holy Grail War with the Master, but what I'm doing now is not at all." ”

X still hasn't said anything, she is even afraid that her master has been in contact with other masters when he goes out every day, and he goes to fight alone, because there is no spell, although X and Luo Wei have signed a contract, but what can be perceived is extremely weak, in case there is a special situation, Luo Wei has no way to summon X through the spell, so what should I do.

Rowe understands X's concerns, and begins to regret his actions slightly.

Is it that he didn't figure out the relationship between the servant and the master?

Indeed, as X said, since X's summoning, Luo Wei has arranged for her to go to work, but after that, in addition to eating, she is out almost every day, and she rarely talks to X after she comes back.

Ask yourself, Luo Wei's understanding of X is too little, and Luo Wei used X as a demon to summon before, but now it seems that the relationship between the servant and the master is not the simple relationship between the demon and the master.

"X, I see. Rowe pressed his hands on X's shoulders and began his elaboration.

"Your heart is too burdensome, maybe we don't know each other enough, you have to know that before you appeared, I lived alone for four years. ”

After four years of life, Luo Wei has become accustomed to the feeling of being alone, even if there is one more person, he will not talk and communicate much.

"X, don't think I don't need you, actually, I don't think I'm good enough to fight alongside you, so I learn magic in the library of the Clock Tower every day. ”

Although I don't know what level of Heroic Spirit X is, Luo Wei is just a garbage who can't do any magic now, and I'm afraid that a gust of wind from a Heroic Spirit can blow him half-crippled.

"So, it's not that I won't let you fight, it's that the time is not yet right, and our fight must be strong enough for me. Like you said, this is not a battle for you alone, it's a battle for us, and I don't want you to be alone against other masters and servants. ”

If X was to face two enemies by himself, and he was just watching from behind, he would never want to.

"Have you been saying this for a long time?"

X nodded, she had been looking for an opportunity to say this since about the other day, but she didn't find it.

"Then as my servant, I now command you as a master. Rowe crouched down slightly, keeping his eyes at the same level as X's, smiling.

"X, if you have anything to say in the future, tell me immediately, I am your master, you are my servant, and we are two sides in one. I think you're my best Servant, so what I'm doing now is working hard to be able to fight with my best Servant, you know?"

X nodded, if she didn't think the Lord needed her before, then she didn't feel it at all now.

Although it is said that the servant is summoned by the master, similar to something like a demon, but in her lifetime, she was also a human being like the master, and the relationship between the servant and the master is like a comrade-in-arms who fight side by side, and the two should have nothing to talk about.

"So X, our Holy Grail War hasn't started yet, and when I feel like I can stand on the same battlefield as you, our Holy Grail War will really begin! ”

The last sentence of Luo Wei was completely wittic, as if he wanted to liven up the atmosphere.

However, X argued very seriously: "The master is not useless. ”

The small face is bulging on both sides, and X, who speaks in a hurry, is also cute.

"Well, according to the rules of the Sidley family, the birthday cake is to be shared. Rowe opened the box of the cake and took out the cake inside.

The combination of blue and white cream makes you look appetizing.

Cutting the cake in half, Rowe and X each ate half of it, looking at X's happy expression when he ate the cake, Rowe remembered the last sentence his mother wrote on the notepad just now.

On July 24, Luo Wei said that he hoped that more people would come to celebrate his birthday in the future, and I also hoped that my son would have more friends to celebrate his birthday with him in the future. ”

Luo Wei felt that he had found the first person who could celebrate his birthday with him.
