Chapter 4 Personality Erosion Chance encounter in the park

"My purpose? I just want my relatives to be happy......" The old man's face showed a faint sadness: "There is nothing more uncomfortable than seeing a bad future but being powerless to change it......"

"So, the fifth method is magic related to fate?" Don't ask knowingly.

“…… It's not accurate, but it's not wrong. The old man did not answer Mo Qian's question directly, but sighed: "The reason why I want to teach you the fifth magic is that you do have the qualifications to master it, and the most important thing is that you can break the bad future I encountered...... It's good for you. ”

“…… What about your current situation? Mo Wen said bluntly: "How long can you exist?" ”

“…… Maybe tomorrow, my consciousness will disappear. The old man smiled bitterly: "Young man, can you see ......?"

"It's not negotiable!" [Just kidding, what if you are trapped in the moon world forever? I don't have a bottom in my heart about the land of steel after that......] Mo Wen said categorically: "I must have a reason why I can't accept the Fifth Law, and I can't do anything about it." ”

“…… That's a shame. The old man sighed: "In that case...... The old man has another proposal. ”

……

Fuyuki City, the courtyard of the house.

After lunch, the little black god looked intently at the cultivation books that Mo Wen had left for her, while Meng Xiang was drowsy in the sunlight - since the little vampire's bloodline hidden danger was lifted, she had a habit of resting in the sunny afternoon.

[Trapped, Killed, Killed, Phantom...... The foundation of the trapped array is finally finished, what about the next one to see the killing array or the phantom array? The little girl put down the scroll in her hand and exhaled deeply. [I always feel that my ability to understand and analyze has dropped a lot compared to before I was summoned...... Listening to the master seems to be the reason for losing the blessings of the world's luck. 】

[But even so...... I, the black god Takaki, am also a first-class genius! The little girl clenched her fists and was about to pick up another book, when she suddenly became stunned and turned her head to look at the door.

The cute fragrance in the nap also opened her eyes together.

"That ......," Sakura, who pushed the door open, looked at the two timidly, "I want to go out for a walk, is that okay?" ”

"Get out?" Meng Xiang frowned, and then looked at the black god: "Did the master allow us to go out?" ”

“…… OK. The black god nodded: "Master left the talisman, within ten kilometers, we can return here in an instant." ”

"That's good." Moeka turned to Sakura: "You can go out, but for your safety, we must stay by your side...... Don't worry, we'll give you plenty of personal space. ”

……

"What? Do you want me to help you take care of the city's leylines after your consciousness disappears? Mo Wen frowned slightly.

"Protecting my two granddaughters, to be precise...... Shinhisa Tono, the head of the Tono family, is ambitious, and after I lose my feelings, Aoko and Orange are powerless to fight him. The old man shook his head: "The best result is that the two sisters survived, but the century-old ancestral business of the Cangqi family was lost; Bad words......"

The old man clenched his fists: "If I were twenty years younger, that scum would have been a dead man a long time ago!" ”

"Loss of emotion? Grandpa, you ......" Aoko Aosaki, who had been stunned for a long time, finally came back to her senses.

"It......'s just a side effect of forcibly inheriting the Fifth Law," the old man smiled bitterly: "Originally, the destined heir of the Fifth Law should not be me, but I forcibly snatched this inheritance, and although I gained great strength, I also paid an irreparable price. ”

"Orange, you are a good magician, and grandpa is proud of you...... But Fifth Magic is really not a good thing for unqualified people, and I am a good example of this. The old man looked at his strong eldest granddaughter: "The conflict of physiognomy will gradually weaken my soul, and my emotions will be gradually worn out, and then, 'I' will die silently, and the one who inherits my skin is just a cold monster......"

"Aoko, your personality is not suitable to be a magician, but your talent is just right for the inheritance of the fifth magic...... I'm sorry to deprive you of your ordinary life, the inheritance of the magician must continue, but I don't have any more time for Grandpa......"

"I ...... I'll try! Aoko Aosaki had never faced such a grandfather, and the look in her eyes that was so weak that it was almost pleading made the girl's heart tug at it with hatred.

[After all, he is my relative......] The girl clenched her fists and took over the responsibility.

"I've wronged you...... Orange. The old man smiled and patted the little granddaughter's head, and then looked at the eldest granddaughter: "The job of teaching you Qingzi will be handed over to you...... Orange, the magic path of the Aozaki family is ultimately inherited by you. ”

[This is magic? It shouldn't be like this! Orange Aozaki didn't respond, she was still shocked by the information she had just received. Shouldn't magic be the most mysterious and forbidden knowledge? Why does listening to grandpa seem like a responsibility? And what the man said...... Five Magics! Magical ......]

"Oranges?" The old man raised his voice slightly.

"Huh?" The girl in glasses finally came to her senses.

"Hey...... That's ......," the old man repeated what he had just said.

"Inheriting the Demon Dao?" The red-haired girl shook her head: "I can take over the work of teaching Aoko...... Since the Fifth Dharma is not worth pursuing, then there is no reason for me to stay here, I want to go to the Clock Tower to further study and learn the Demon Dao more comprehensively. ”

"Inertia of the future?" The old man muttered something quietly, and then nodded: "I know, the letter of introduction is in the first drawer under my bookcase, you can get it yourself when the time comes...... Europe is not as good as Japan, where there are many famous magicians, although you are very good at oranges, but you should also be careful. ”

"Done?" Mo Wen said, "But you should know that I can't stay here for a long time...... And, what can you give me? ”

"Three years, you can protect them for three years." The old man made a condition: "I know what you are going to face, I have here the details of the Holy Grail War, the magic of the Aozaki family will be completely open to you, when I was young, I relied on the power of the magician to plunder some magic secret techniques, and there are a few tricks that are very suitable for your situation at this time - for example...... Your master doesn't have mana savings yet, right? My secret method will allow her to have the magic power of a great magician for ten days, and there will be no side effects. ”

"Also, I'll tell you a secret...... A secret of your life. ”

As soon as the old man's words came out, Mo Wen felt the thread of fate around him shake violently, and the majestic power attacked the old man, and a trace of blood gushed out of his nose and mouth.

"Grandpa!" The two girls exclaimed.

The monk instinctively sensed that the old man had not lied to himself.

"Good! I promise you. Mo Wen put away his sword and nodded.

……

[Familiar park, familiar grass and trees...... A month ago, I was playing carefree with my sister here, and my mother would prepare drinks and good snacks; Uncle Yanye, who is often on business trips, sometimes brings us small gifts......]

Sakura sat quietly in her chair, her eyes glazed over, and she unconsciously touched the ribbon that was tangled in her hair......

"This is a very important place for her...... "Behind the big tree not far away, Moeka, who saw everything in her eyes, turned her head to look at the black god Motaki." I still don't understand why parents send their daughters to that kind of place...... Speaking of Taki-chan, your relatives are still there, right? Why do you respond to the call of your master? ”

"Family affection...... My mother died early, and my father rarely came to see me because of work, but I could feel his heart...... "The black god pinched the corners of his clothes and said in a low voice: "But I also have an older brother and an older sister, and my father is very tired of taking care of the three of us alone, and my abnormality is incompatible with the whole world...... Leaving was the right choice. ”

“…… Do you regret it now? ”

"I regret it a little...... But that doesn't make sense anymore. The little black god perked up: "This is the path I chose, and I will stick to it!" ”

"Yes, regret is always the most useless...... Someone's coming! Ay? That little girl seemed to be very emotional. ”

"It should be her relatives." The black god said in a low voice.

……

Sakura was indeed very excited now, and when she saw the two familiar figures slowly coming to the entrance of the park, her small body trembled violently with excitement.

"Sakura!" The red-clothed double ponytail who walked in front recognized his sister at a glance, and rushed over like a cannonball and hugged the little girl tightly: "I miss you so much......"

"Sister...... I miss you too. The little girl turned the suffering and grievances of these days into rushing tears and poured out them unreservedly to her relatives.

"......" The beautiful woman in simple clothes smiled and looked at the two daughters who hugged each other and cried.

……

“…… I know, thank you, and in three years, I will take care of your granddaughter. Mo Wen nodded at the embarrassed old man who was sweating profusely.

"That's great...... the old man smiled with relief, and then turned to look at his two granddaughters: "...... future"

The old man closed his eyes.

"Grandpa?" An ominous premonition suddenly appeared in Aoko's heart.

"Since the man told you everything, then you don't need to call me by that name." The old man opened his eyes again, and his voice was cold, calm, without a trace of emotion.

"You!" The girl clenched her fists.

"Even if you learn the Fifth Method, you won't be my opponent, let alone your ...... now" The completely different old man ignored the angry girl, and then looked at Mo and asked: "I didn't expect that guy to be able to withstand the power of the backlash and bring a little more life to your future." ”

"What are you?" Mo Wen narrowed his eyes.

"A puppet with a responsibility." The old man got up and glanced at Qingzi, and the girl suddenly felt a huge flood of information rushing into her brain, so she was a little dizzy, took two steps back and fell back to her seat.

"Don't get excited, I'm just passing on the fifth method to this little girl." The old man's body gradually dissipated, turning into a blurred light: "I have my mission, so I will leave." ”

The light flashed away, leaving only Mo Wen with Lori and the two girls staring at each other.

……

"Mother...... Me, I want to go home, can I? After venting, Sakura, who was red-eyed, said her heart's desire to her mother with a look of hope.

"Your father won't say yes......" Aoi Tosaka's soft voice shattered Sakura's illusions.

"Mother......" Rin Tosaka pulled the corner of the woman's clothes: "You can persuade my father......"

"You're still young, you don't understand, the hour is for your good......" Aoi Tosaka sighed: "Sakura, it's okay if you're in the Makiri's house, at least you can meet us often......"

But the little girl couldn't hear these words anymore, and the only thing that echoed in her mind at this time was the sentence:

The hour is for your own good......

Is that so? That's my parents......

The little girl slowly wiped away her tears and reluctantly smiled sadly at her sister and mother.

……

"It's decided?" On the way back, the little black god spoke.

"Hmm." Sakura didn't hesitate.
