After listening to Zhou Xiaoning's words, Medea was silent for a long time.

In fact, the lord who summoned Medea and signed a contract with her was not Soichiro Katsugi, but someone else. However, the man was jealous of her spell-casting abilities comparable to that of a "magician" and cared deeply about her past, so he used a spell to limit her magic to the level of a normal human.

Not only that, but in order to obtain the knowledge and skills of the magic of the gods from her, the magician often used some drastic means to force her.

But who is Medea, how can she be at the mercy of a mere magician, so she first pretends to be obedient, and then finds an opportunity to trick the magician into using up the remaining two spells, and then suddenly rebels and kills her.

It's just that what Medea didn't expect was that the magician had already prevented her from betraying, so she kept a hand, and when she was dying, she fought back violently, and successfully hit Medea hard.

Although Medea participated in this Holy Grail War in the form of her main body, even if she did not rely on the master, she could exist independently, but the injuries inflicted on her by the magician before her death were too serious, not only preventing her from obtaining magic from the outside world, but even constantly draining the magic power in her body. According to that trend, if left unchecked, at most one day, Medea will be unable to maintain her existence due to the exhaustion of her magic power, and she will leave the market early.

And just when Medea was dying, Soichiro Katsugi appeared and saved her.

Since she was given the title of "Betrayed Witch", Medea met someone who was willing to help her for the first time, and the closed door of her heart was opened for a while. Later, after an indescribable process of replenishing the demons, Medea signed a contract with Soichiro Katsukidi, and Medea became Soichiro Katsuki's Heroic Spirit, though she preferred to call herself Soichiro's wife.

After being with Soichiro Katsukidi, Medea poured all her feelings into him alone.

Medea didn't have much desire for the Holy Grail, but now, in order to be by Soichiro Katsukidi's side all the time, Medea is bound to get the Holy Grail. To this end, she took possession of the Citizens' Hall, an unowned spiritual place, and transformed the Hall into her shrine.

Since Gaia and Alaya came forward to make a rule that the Heroic Spirits who participated in the Holy Grail War were not allowed to have too much impact on mortals, Medea did not dare to seize the vitality of the residents of Fuyuki City to improve her magic power as in the original plot.

Medea's plan now is actually to stick to the temple, and when the other lords and heroic spirits are almost finished, she will come out and enjoy the benefits of the fisherman.

Medea kept it well hidden, until late in the evening, when Soichiro Katsuki found the magic tracking mark. Although she immediately cracked the mark with the [Breaking the Ten Thousand Laws Talisman], she knew that it was too late, and they had already been exposed.

Sure enough, at midnight, Rin Tosaka and Red A came.

Originally, Medea wanted to use the dragon tooth soldiers to kill Rin Tosaka and Red A, but she didn't expect to kill Zhou Xiaoning and Artoria halfway, so she had to take action herself.

What Medea never expected was that Zhou Xiaoning was sympathetic to her. After experiencing too much betrayal and betrayal, Medea has long learned how to read people's hearts, and she may not be able to interpret them in too much detail, but she can still distinguish between true feelings and false intentions. And in Zhou Xiaoning's body, she didn't see the slightest hint of hypocrisy.

For a moment, Medea felt deeply, if it weren't for Soichiro Katsugi, maybe she would have fallen in love with Zhou Xiaoning.

In Medea's heart, she already regarded Zhou Xiaoning as someone who understood her, so she even made up her mind that even if she won tonight's battle, after destroying the enemy's heroic spirit, she would spare Zhou Xiaoning's life.

However, what Medea didn't expect was that before she could let Zhou Xiaoning go, Zhou Xiaoning came to persuade her to surrender first.

To be honest, if she can really be with Soichiro Katsuki for the rest of her life, it is not impossible to give up the magic of this body and become an ordinary person, but the question is whether Zhou Xiaoning can really be the master of the two major inhibiting forces, what if this is just a lie that Zhou Xiaoning tricked her into giving up resistance?

"I admit, your offer is tempting. But I still think it's more reliable to make a wish through the Holy Grail, so, sorry! ”

As soon as Medea's words fell, she built four attack magic arrays in front of her, and launched four magic beams to blast towards Zhou Xiaoning. This is Medea's [High-Speed Divine Word] skill, which can greatly reduce the time for chanting spells, and even achieve the effect of instant bursts, just like now.

"I didn't expect it to be a magic spell!"

Rin Tosaka is not calm, and she only dabbles in the description of "divine words" in her own collection. According to legend, "Divine Words" is a kind of superior mantra language, which mostly appeared in various mythological eras, because it is difficult for modern human vocal organs to produce the corresponding syllables, it is because "Divine Words" was lost after the mythological era, and even the Demon Dao books collected by the Tosaka family only mentioned a few sentences, and no more records can be found.

In a magic duel, whoever finishes the spell first and releases the magic will have the upper hand, and even if he has mastered the magic trick, if he is knocked out before the spell is recited, it will be in vain.

However, just when Artoria, Rin Tosaka, and Red A were all sweating for Zhou Xiaoning, Zhou Xiaoning appeared in front of everyone as if he was nothing, and Medea's attack failed to affect him.

"This anti-magic power...... You, are you a monster! ”

Medea took a step back in shock, you must know that she had already shot with all her strength just now, even Saber, who is known as the strongest in terms of comprehensive strength, could not be blocked unscathed, but Zhou Xiaoning did it, when did the human man's anti-magic power become even more perverted than the heroic spirit!

Moving her gaze upward, Medea found that a golden lotus flower was suspended above Zhou Xiaoning's head, casting a faint golden light curtain to protect Zhou Xiaoning inside, and the magic beam she emitted just now was put down by this light curtain.

Seeing this, Medea couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, it turned out that Zhou Xiaoning had a defensive treasure to protect herself, which was reasonable.

"Is that your answer, I have to say it's a really stupid decision."

Zhou Xiaoning took back the [Six Rank Merit Golden Lotus] with an expressionless face, he had already released his kindness, but Medea did not accept it. Since Medea chose to be his enemy, he would not show mercy to his subordinates.

I saw Zhou Xiaoning slam a palm towards Medea, and before the palm reached his body, the violent palm wind was like a small storm, directly blowing Medea away.

Medea is really worthy of being a witch who has left a murderous reputation in the age of mythology, and she has a lot of experience in combat, although she is in mid-air, she does not have the slightest panic, and she immediately casts a flying magic. Medea's magic robe spread out like a bat's wing, quickly helped her stabilize her body, and dragged her to levitate in the air.

"Looks like you need a little help."

Soichiro Katsugi walked out of the guild hall, exuding an astonishing killing intent all over his body.

Just as Medea pinned all her feelings on Soichiro Katsukidi, Soichiro Katsuragi also regarded Medea as his spiritual sustenance, believing that the meaning of his survival was to fight for Medea.

Before meeting Medea, Soichiro Katsugi was actually an extremely empty person, and he didn't even have the desire to pursue happiness as a person at all. He only regarded himself as an integral part of society, without his own will and thought. Even if I am a teacher, I have the mentality that once I have obtained it, I will try to do my best to the end.

Soichiro Katsugi is more of a machine than a man.

Soichiro Katsuki originally belonged to a mysterious group, and even in the end, he didn't figure out the true face of that mysterious group.

It took twenty years for that group to cultivate a number of "tools", and Soichiro Katsugi was one of them. Because he has been brainwashed since he was a child, Soichiro Katsuki does not have a normal view of good and evil, and for him, killing people only refers to the role that should be played as a "tool".

The syndicate follows the "one kills one" rule, which means that each "tool", no matter how good it is, will only be used once, as long as it can successfully kill the mission target, it will be successful.

So, when that organization sent Soichiro Katsugi to complete the assassination mission, he never thought he would survive from the beginning. Surprisingly, the mission was so simple that he killed his target almost effortlessly, and the ease of it made him feel ridiculously prepared for the time he had spent his entire life.

Soichiro Kazuki did not feel excited or sad after the killing. If he had any kind of feelings at that time, maybe he would have taken a different path later, but at that time his heart was just empty.

According to the group's regulations, if the "tool" survives by luck after completing its mission, it must be self-disciplined to prevent the group's intelligence from leaking. But Soichiro Katsugi didn't, and he suddenly felt remorse for not growing up with his own will and killing people whose names he only knew, and he chose to flee. He ran to a distant city and used his status as a teacher for assassination to start a life as an ordinary person.

Soichiro Katsuki originally thought that he could only live such a peaceful life for half a year at most, but he didn't expect that after five years in a row, the group did not send anyone to hunt him down, as if there was no such person as him at all.

If nothing else, this life will continue forever, until not long ago, he met a seriously injured Medea and learned about the Holy Grail War, his life changed drastically, and this time he felt that he had found the meaning of existence.
