Chapter Twenty-Seven: The Blood Lotus
It was late at night, and the rotten old man sat quietly in the middle of the room on crutches. Sleep? That kind of thing didn't exist many years ago.
Suddenly, some connections above the soul disappeared cleanly, and Jian Tong was stunned, and all his worms died in an instant.
"How is it possible? Killed all the old worms in an instant, could it be that a Servant attacked? Obviously, the Holy Grail War will officially start tomorrow night. ”
Muttering to himself, his short body stood up and walked towards the basement on crutches.
"Master?" Listening to the words of the suddenly appeared figure, the girl with purple broken hair had some human expressions, let's call it a confused look.
Sakura looked at the bright red spell on the back of her hand, the Holy Grail War, she knew about it, she had heard some things from Uncle Yanya, it seemed that Uncle Yanya was going to participate in this war.
The scarlet figure that suddenly appeared and couldn't see clearly, the corners of his mouth slightly curled, quietly admiring the white and somewhat greasy body of the girl in front of him in the moonlight. The girl's carcass is so petite, small and cute.
Only now did she realize that the insect on her body didn't know when it disappeared and her body was exposed, and Sakura let out a cute snort and tightened her body.
"That's not going to work, it's going to catch a cold, Master. As he spoke, the man gently picked up the naked girl, and the pitch-black cloak wrapped around her naked and naked body.
Sakura looked up, and she was greeted by a delicate and smiling face. It was a young man's face, his owner didn't look very old, and his red eyes were very eye-catching.
This feeling...... It's so warm...... Sakura huddled tightly in the arms of the man in front of her, how long has it been...... How does it feel...... A warm feeling that I thought I would never feel...... There are only worms and endless worms in daily life......
Tears slowly overflowed from the hollow, unshiny pupils. The man just smiled slightly and gently stroked the girl's purple hair, letting the girl cry in his arms.
"Did you kill the old pet?" a hoarse, metallic sound rang out, and the moment she heard it, Sakura's body twitched violently, and she stopped crying.
"Styx, you can call the deity that......" The young man smiled, hugging Sakura and turning to face the rotten insect man.
"Under my perception, I quietly entered the worm kiln, are you an Assassin? The Holy Grail War has not officially begun, I don't know who instructed you to come to the house of Makiri. Jian Tong said coldly.
"Master...... Grandfather...... This is the Heroic Spirit I have summoned......" The timid words rang out from the embrace of Styx, and Sakura exposed her arm engraved with the spell to the inkstone of Makiri.
"Is this true? Sakura, there is a price to pay for lying. There was a look of surprise on his face, but the tone of his mouth was still threatening.
Frightened by such a dirty inkstone, Sakura didn't dare to speak again, but shrunk tighter in the arms of the River Styx.
"It seems that God really blessed my Jian Tong family, and even gave two spirit spirits, right? It seems that this time the Holy Grail is destined to be my Jian Tong dirty inkstone?"
"Sakura, I'll take down your spell, although your magic talent is very good, it must be a bit difficult to provide a Heroic Spirit's magic power in this world, and the old man will drive this Heroic Spirit to win this Holy Grail War on your behalf. Greed flashed in the eyes of the dirty inkstone, and the wizened hand reached out to Sakura's hand engraved with the spell.
"Huh?" Styx took a step back without a trace, "Did I hear me right? You said you want to replace her as the Master of the deity?"
"Why, are you questioning the strength of the old decay? Although the body is decayed, my surging magic will definitely surprise you. Jian Tong was stunned and asked a little puzzled.
Becoming a hero of the Servant, he is definitely in the mood of expecting the Holy Grail, in the eyes of the Kiriki Dirty Yan, he is obviously the perfect choice to become the Master of the River Styx, why would this heroic spirit refuse?
If you provide him with magic by yourself, his strength will definitely be stronger.
"It's nothing, because the deity hates wriggling bugs. The young man said with a smile, and the smile on Jian Tong's dirty inkstone slowly converged.
"Assassin, it's not funny. Sakura, give me your spell. The dirty inkstone of the mason said coldly, and gave orders to Sakura.
Sakura looked at the hideous-looking old man in front of her with a frightened expression, and then looked up at the Styx with a gentle smile.
"Master, do you need the deity to help you pinch that disgusting bug? Styx said softly, as if the inkstone was really just an insignificant insect that could be killed with just a slight pinch.
"Sakura, don't you listen to your grandfather? The little girl was scared confidently, and in his opinion, this little girl who only knew how to be obedient would never dare to resist herself.
"Yo, Master, do you really want to stay in this place, in the midst of these filthy bugs?" Styx spoke, and he gently raised his head to look at the Dirty Inkstone across from him, a dangerous smile on his face.
Silent...... The girl hugged her arms tighter.
Don't want to...... Don't want to be like this anymore...... Why, why did Dad do this to me...... Why did Grandpa do this to me...... Why don't even my mother and sister want me anymore?...... Don't want to be like this anymore...... Don't do it again, I really want to see the sun again, see the outside world...... I want to get out of here!
"Don't ......" is a small voice, but it is extremely resolute!
"Sakura, what are you talking about, have you forgotten your father's order, you are no longer a child of the Tosaka family, but belong to my Maki family!" Hearing Sakura's words, Makiri's dirty inkstone almost roared, this girl, how dare she disobey him?
Sakura didn't say anything more, just sat tightly in Styx's arms.
"Yo, since the Master of the deity has spoken, then worm, I give you death!" said Styx, the smile on his face instantly turned into cold frost, and the body of the inkstone of Makiri was stunned, and the scarlet spread from the middle of his face.
Blood was all over the space, and the inkstone disappeared alive in front of the River Styx, from flesh, body to soul.
Something was laughing, it was a shadow, slightly, the sound of insects flapping their wings sounded, and Styx's brow furrowed slightly.
"It's disgusting...... "Raise your hand slightly, blood spread, in the invisible night, and then the sound of flapping wings dissipates into invisibility.
The whole room was stained with blood, and slowly began to decay, it was an incomparably ominous force, and even the space was turned scarlet.
The blood of the River Styx! Begin to erode everything from the blood, and destroy from within!
"It's very deep, but do you think I can't do anything about you like this?" Styx chuckled, the originally ominous scarlet color slowly converged, and then instantly turned into a brilliant light.
Punishment of blood, baptism!
A dark red beam of light pierced Sakura's petite and small body, and a miserable cry rang out in the blood-colored light.
"How is it possible!, depravity and decay, and such a terrifying murderous and resentful aura, you must be ......" The hoarse scream of the insect before he died, a small white worm turned to ashes in Sakura's heart, and a scarlet silk thread was extracted by the River Styx in his hand.
"What a filthy soul......" Styx shook his head incessantly, slowly extracting the memories of the inkstone, "It looks like you're not qualified to be my bait." Styx chuckled, and Styx held the hand of the soul of the imagile inkstone tightly.
The moonlight is bright, but under the moonlight, the Tong Mansion is extremely gloomy, and the low laughter that doesn't know where comes, and the shadows that dance wildly in the unknown place, intertwined, overlapped, and then dissipated into the invisible.
