"Fill, fill, fill, fill, fill, fill, this time it's five times, 0K?"

He artistically applied the remaining blood to the proper place on the walls of the room, and then he walked over to the little boy who was still alive in the corner, gagged and tied with rope, and he leaned close to the boy's face to see his reflection, and the boy's weeping eyes stared at the remains of his sister and parents.

"Hey, kid, do you think there really are demons?" Ryunosuke asked the shivering child, tilting his head to look at him as if he was pretending to think.

Of course, he didn't want the gagged child to answer his question, he just wanted the child to feel the fear more personally.

"Newspapers and magazines often refer to me as a demon. But isn't it strange? If I kill this person alone, it only takes a bomb to surpass me in an instant. ”

Children are very good.,Ryunosuke likes children the most.,Adults sometimes show that kind of cowardice and crying is unorthodox ugliness.,And what happens to children is naughty and cute.,Even if it's bedwetting.,Because of your young age, you'll be tolerated.。

"Well, forget it, let them say I'm a demon, but if there is a real demon in this world besides me, then wouldn't it be very sorry for the real demon. That's not a good thing, is it good to pretend like 'Rain Monkey Ryunosuke is a demon'? If you think so, you have to admit it now. Do real demons exist? ”

The more Ryunosuke spoke, the more excited he became, and he became closer to the child, who was usually a man of few words, and who was very talkative whenever he saw blood, especially when he was around the dying.

Only this little boy was left unkilled, because the blood volume of the three people was enough to finish drawing the magic array, and there was no other meaning, he was ready to wait for the ritual to be completed before thinking about another interesting way to kill this child-

"But if the demon does appear, we don't have any preparation at all, and we just have a tea party with the demon, that would be a bit idiot, wouldn't it? So, boy...... If Mr. Demon does appear, do you want to be killed once? ”

“……！”

For the anomaly in Ryunosuke's words, even a young child can fully understand the meaning, looking at the appearance of the child in front of him who wants to scream but can't scream, and can only open his eyes full of fear and can't escape, Ryunosuke grinned non-stop.

"What would it be like to be killed by a demon, whether it would be eaten in one bite, or whether it would be torn to pieces, in short, I think it must be a very valuable experience, and it is definitely not meaningless-ah, it hurts!"

Suddenly, there was a sharp pain that pulled Ryunosuke back from his fantasy to reality.

The back of his right hand, although nothing was touched, was as painful as if it had been soaked in poison, and although the pain was fleeting, the afterglow of the pain still lingered on the surface of his skin, making the back of his hand numb.

“…… This? What is this......"

On the back of his right hand, where the pain had not completely subsided, I don't know when a tattoo-like pattern was engraved.

“…… Ay? ”

After seeing this pattern, Ryunosuke not only did not feel nauseous and uneasy, but first felt that this pattern was very beautiful.

I don't know what the drawing means, but the three snakes are intertwined and look very beautiful as a tattoo.

However, just as he had just recovered from this intoxication, he suddenly felt a flow of air behind him, and Ryunosuke turned around in even more surprise.

There was a wind blowing, and in this completely enclosed room, it should have been an air flow that would never blow, and this air flow quickly turned from a gentle breeze to a fierce whirlwind, blowing the whole living room into chaos.

The magic circle drawn on the bed began to emit a faint phosphorescent light at some point, and Ryunosuke stared at it with a look of disbelief.

He even had expectations for the further development of this anomaly - such an obvious strange phenomenon was completely beyond his expectations, it was almost like an exaggeration in a horror movie that Ryunosuke had always looked down upon.

But this kind of effect of deceiving children that people can't laugh when they want to laugh has become a real reality.

In the blink of an eye, the air currents in the room had developed into a tornado that was dangerous even to stand in, the TV and vase in the living room were shattered by the wind, and a mist gradually rose in the center of the glowing magic array, and there were faint lightning and sparks flying in it.

Faced with the unseemly situation in this world, Ryunosuke Yusheng didn't feel fear at all, but watched quietly by the side like a child who was full of expectations for magic.

It's a curiosity about the unknown.

I used to be curious about such an incredible thing as "death", but in the process of gradually feeling tired of the continuous killing, I don't know when I lost that due brilliance, and now, finally.

Flash.

This was followed by a thunderous roar.

A force of impact passed through Ryunosuke's body, and it was as if he had been burned by a high-voltage electric current.

The strange power that was once passed down from generation to generation by the Yusheng clan has finally reawakened today with the mysterious legacy called the "magic circuit" that has been buried in the body of the Yusheng clan with the blood flowing in the body of the Yusheng clan.

Then, the "external power" that had just entered Ryunosuke's body flowed out of his body again after passing through the magic loop that had just been opened in his body, and then was absorbed by the object summoned from the other world.

-- It can be said that this is an exception within an exception.

Originally, according to the requirements of the Fuyuki Holy Grail itself, it was necessary to have seven Servants, not that a qualified person summoned to the Servant would obtain the qualification of the corresponding Master, but the Holy Grail would choose seven qualified people to be the Master.

In the final analysis, it is up to the Holy Grail to summon which Heroic Spirit can be summoned, and the magicians have worked hard to hold rituals in the hope of being able to summon the Servant they want more accurately, so no matter how clumsy the summoning array you use or how vague the spell you utter, as long as you have the qualifications recognized by the Holy Grail, you can achieve miracles......

"--I ask you ......"

A delicate, incredibly beautiful voice came from the mist, and the wind stopped unconsciously, and the magic array that had been emitting light just now had dimmed, and the blood painted on the bed turned black and dried up as if it had been burned, and then in the thin mist, the person who had just spoken suddenly appeared in front of Ryunosuke.

A smooth, youthful-looking face, with large eyes and smooth cheeks that rotated flexibly, and a brown face that matched him, reminded Ryunosuke of Munch's paintings.

His costume is also peculiar, with his slender body wearing wide robes and a large amount of extravagant precious metal jewelry, almost like the "Dark Magician" that appeared in the comics.

"Plead me, call me, summoner who makes me appear in this world as a Caster...... I'm here to ask your name. Who is there? ”

“……”

Ryunosuke was a little unsure of how to answer. Emerging from the lightning and smoke of a summoning array made of blood - it was an ordinary person who didn't know what to expect, but at least it was a very exaggerated monster.

Now this ordinary human appearance,It makes Ryunosuke feel very frustrated.,Although it's really very bizarre and weird from the point of view of the costume.,But can you judge that this man is a demon based on this alone?

Scratching his head slightly, Ryunosuke replied mentally ready.

"Well, my name is Ryunosuke Yuyu, a freelancer who has a hobby of killing people and likes small children and young girls."

The man in the robe nodded, as if he had taken everything but his name in his ears.

"Very well, the contract has been made, and I have a long-cherished wish to obtain the Holy Grail you desire, and the key to Paradise will surely fall into our hands, right?"

"H-what?"

It seems that he can't figure out what is going on right away, and Ryunosuke feels a little confused.

In this way, the old book found in the warehouse did have such a record on it, but because it was very boring, the rules and the like were just skimmed and skimmed.

“…… Yes! Put these troublesome topics aside, and come—" Ryunosuke waved his hand slightly, then pointed to the child in the corner of the room with his chin and said, "Anyway, how about the one over there as a greeting gift?" Are you going to eat him? ”

The strange man looked at the kid tied up over there with a blank expression, and then at Ryunosuke.

Whether he understood the meaning of Ryunosuke's words, there was no clue on his face at all, and in this deathly silence, Ryunosuke suddenly felt an inexplicable uneasiness.

Was my behavior rude to him? But the devil eats children, and anyone would think like that.

The strange man was silent and took out a book from his robe, which looked so heavy and beautifully bound that it was a very valuable antique at a glance.

It's exactly the kind of prop that demons often use.

The material used to bind the cover of that book, Ryunosuke could see it at a glance.

"Ah, that's amazing! It's made of human skin, right? ”

Because Ryunosuke once skinned the victim alive and used it to make a lampshade, but for him who was very clumsy in hand-making, he suffered too many setbacks and finally gave up, and now he sees a master with the same intention of making and making a perfect finished product, he simply respects this man very much.

For Ryunosuke's praise, the man just glanced at him and didn't make any statement, and then slowly opened the book in his hand and quickly turned the pages with his hand, and words of unknown meaning popped out of his mouth from time to time, and then closed the book again as if everything was done, and put the book in his arms again.

“……？”

The strange man put aside Ryunosuke, who couldn't understand his behavior at all, and could only watch from the side, and walked towards the little boy curled up beside the bed.

The boy, who had been frightened by the strange things that had been happening all the time, struggled and desperately avoided the man who was slowly walking towards him.

Seeing the boy behaving like this, the man's eyes suddenly became gentle and full of love for some reason.

Seeing this, Ryunosuke became more and more confused, what the hell is going on.

"Don't be afraid, child"

The strange-looking strange man said to the boy with a soft expression and a soft voice that did not match his face.

The bound boy finally noticed that someone was talking to him with a warm expression, so he stopped struggling and looked at the man's face with a pleading gaze.

As if in response to the boy, the man smiled and nodded, reaching out to the boy curled up on the ground—gently untying the ropes and gagged muzzles.

"Can you stand up?" The man lifted the half-hunched boy to his feet and stroked his back as if encouraging.

Ryunosuke didn't have any doubts about whether the man was a demon or not, but he still couldn't understand the way he treated the boy. Was he really going to save the boy's life?

But this man looks very strange no matter how you look at it, when he is silent, he has an extremely terrifying countenance, but when he laughs, he is full of innocent and pure expression, like a saint.

"All right, boy, go out of the house through the door on that side, go all the way on, don't look around, and go out on your own feet. -- Alone, go out. ”

“…… Hmmm......"

The boy nodded firmly, and the man patted the boy on the back with a smile on his face.

The boy trotted all the way as the man said, not even daring to glance at the corpses of his parents and sister, and walked through the blood-soaked floor, and the corridor outside the door led to the stairs and hallway on the second floor, where he could escape from the murderer's hands and he would continue to live.

"Hey! etc......"

Ryunosuke, who couldn't stand it anymore, just spoke. was quickly stopped by the man.

Ryunosuke, who was talking to him, was very worried that the boy would escape, but he had no choice but to watch the boy's back go farther and farther.

The boy opened the door and walked through the corridor, and in front of him was the door to the entrance, and the boy's eyes that were full of fear just now finally gave off the light of peace of mind and hope again.

In the next moment, the story develops to a climax.

The boy facing the entrance, with his back to the staircase, above the staircase, from the tarzander in the living room, which was invisible because it was blocked by the stairs, suddenly struck the boy below like an avalanche, and a very thick sand of robes—nay, like a swarm of countless snakes—was a creature that could not be described, no, perhaps it would be more appropriate to say that it was a creature, and he wound the boy from behind, and then very quickly pulled the boy up to the second floor with great force.

And then there was a heart-rending scream.

It was as if the sound of countless creatures licking their tongues together and the sound of tiny bones breaking and shattering sounded.

Although I didn't see what was happening, the imagination triggered by hearing this disgusting sound was even more stimulating.

The strange man closed his eyes and tilted his head, listening to the nightmarish sound as if he were very intoxicated, and the hand he placed on his chest kept shaking, as if he were very excited.

On the other hand, Ryunosuke reveled in the same emotion...... No, he hadn't expected anything from that, but the sight of the scene brought him a strong spiritual baptism.

"There's something fresh about horror......

Still basking in the aftermath of the tragedy he had caused, the demon - no doubt at all now - began to speak in a tone full of intoxication.

"Human beings are in constant fear, and their feelings will gradually die. Terror in the true sense of the word does not refer to the static that does not change, but the dynamic that changes—the kind of transition from hope to despair, the horror of that moment. What do you think? This fresh taste of horror and death. ”

"............" Ryunosuke was speechless in surprise.

The "thing" on the stairs that was still devouring the boy's corpse must have been prepared by this man, as if he had emerged from a magic circle made of blood, and he must have had it all when he first opened the ancient book bound in his own skin.

Although he was surprised by the man's methods, what made him admire even more was the man's philosophy, this kind of creative work and extreme evil that even Ryunosuke sighed at himself, and the "aesthetics of death" that could bring such a strong and vivid touch, even if it gave him all the praise in the world, it was not too much.

“COOL！ That's great! It's so cool for you! ”

With great excitement, Ryunosuke shook the man's hand vigorously and shook it up and down, so that even when he saw relatives, friends or lovers, he might not be so excited.

The murderous maniac, Ryunosuke Yusheng, finally met a character in this boring world today that he can respect from the bottom of his heart.

“OK～！ I don't know the Holy Grail or anything, but I'm going to follow you! I can help you, come on, let's kill as much as we want, as many living sacrifices as you want, as long as you continue to let me enjoy this very ~~COOL way of killing! ”

"You're so happy!" Perhaps sensing Ryunosuke's grateful, the man responded to Ryunosuke with a gentle smile with a straightforward and innocent expression, "Your name is Ryunosuke!" To be able to get the understanding of a Master like you. It's really my pleasure. In this way, I was finally able to achieve my long-cherished wish. ”

--Similar to this kind of successful summoning without a holy relic, the Master and the Heroic Spirit to be summoned need to have the same spirituality, and the one summoned by a murderous maniac like Ryunosuke is the true Heroic Spirit of Murder who has left a name for himself in the future for his cruelty and thirst for killing.

No, by his nature, it would be more appropriate to call him a fierce spirit than a heroic spirit.

"Ah, then, I don't know your name yet!" Ryunosuke, who finally found the crux of the problem, asked deliberately flatteringly.

"Name. Well...... If you want a good name for this era......" The man put his finger to his lips and thought about it for a moment...... So, how about calling me first, Bruisker? Today we know each other. ”

The man replied kindly with an angelic smile.

In this way, the last group of the Fourth Holy Grail War, the seventh Master, and his Servant, Caster, completed the contract.

A joyful murderer who has neither awakened as a magician nor a concept of the Holy Grail War, but has only acquired the Command Charm and the Servant by accident.

If all this is a joke of fate, it must be the worst kind of joke.
