"Damn! How so? I'm not reconciled! "The woman in the purple robe, the witch of the mythical era, ran in a panic among the mountains and forests.
"Stupid Mater! It's stupid to use two spells to restrict my magic and behavior! ”
As a witch in the Age of Mythology, Medea has a magical realm that rivals that of a magician, and is even better than a magician in other aspects. After being summoned abnormally, she didn't show her hand to prevent children from being "refined" into magical powers, but simply showed her strength. As a result, the magician Mater, who lacked mediocre magical talent and lack fighting spirit, actually used a spell on her because he was jealous of her talent, limiting her abilities.
As she said, her Mater was stupid and home.
Due to the constraints of these two spells, Medea is unable to exert her due strength, and as the "witch of betrayal", she is unable to work hard for those who do not believe in her. So when the enemy came to her door, she managed to break the contract with Mater and regain her freedom.
However, the cost of regaining one's freedom is enormous.
First of all, there are also heroic spirits among the people who came to the door, and it is imperative for her to lose Mater, and she has been chasing her since she was found. Secondly, without Mater's mana supply and contract, Medea's own mana storage was not enough to keep her active in the present world for a long time. And because of the stupid behavior of the previous Mater, she didn't even have the strength to take the risk
The situation is overwhelmingly unfavorable for her!
"The mana consumption is overweight than expected, if we can't find a new magician to conclude a contract as soon as possible......" A weed stumbled Medea's ankle, and the woman, who was already not mobile, suddenly lost her center, fell and rolled out of the short bushes.
Click-and-click-
He was about to sit up on the ground when he suddenly heard the sound of footsteps.
"Is it the enemy?" Medea was shocked. Covering his delicate face with a hood, he quietly mobilized all the remaining magic power, holding it in and out of it, ready to fight to the death.
"There are fluctuations in the magic power on the body, but it is not powerful, and the speed of action is quite fast. I guess I'm an ordinary magician. But it's also possible that ......" The witch who has a lot of experience in hiding and being hunted down subconsciously thinks of another possibility.
"A powerful magician or heroic spirit who has hidden most of his aura!"
Wow -
With the sound of the short bushes being separated, a teenager in a black coat entered Medea's field of vision: "Hey, are you okay?" ”
It seems to be a teenager with a good old personality......
Medea made a preliminary judgment in her mind, but she herself was not convinced. Regardless of whether the other party pretended to be or not, since the other party did not take the initiative to attack, she just used this time to recover her strength. She shook her head slowly and whispered, "It's nothing, I'm lost." ”
Hearing what the other party said, the young man Shirou didn't think much about it. Showing a sincere smile: "I see, it's good that you're okay." If you follow this repaired road, you will see Liudong Temple. That's a friend's home of mine and he'll definitely help you. I was supposed to take you over myself, but I have something very important to do now, so take care of yourself. ”
With that, Shirou walked in the direction where Saber had disappeared.
Seeing the other party's expression without any hypocrisy, and the figure who left without hesitation. Medea couldn't help but blame herself for her suspicion, and subconsciously said, "That, that ......"
"Ahh That's right! Shirou suddenly stopped, and Medea, who was very suspicious, suddenly raised her guard again, and secretly blamed herself for not letting her guard down, which may have been a deliberate action by the other party in order to distract her guard.
Shirou, who didn't know what Medea was thinking, turned around, and his hearty smile was like the sunshine that dispelled the dark clouds and darkness. "I forgot to tell you that something very dangerous is happening in this forest. It's not safe for you to be here alone, so it's better to get out of here. ”
"Goodbye, then."
After saying that, Shirou ran away without hesitation.
"He, he...... This teenager ......"
His concern turned out to be genuine!!
Long......
It's been a long time since I've experienced this feeling of being cared for!!
Looking at the figure who left without hesitation, getting farther and farther away from him. Medea suddenly choked for no apparent reason, and her eyes were pantothenic.
"Wait! ...... direction"
Medea suddenly reacted, and the direction in which the boy ran was the same place where she had just escaped, where ...... There are powerful Heroic Spirits there!
"Why? Is it because he is the manager of the spiritual vein......? ”
As the "Witch of Betrayal", she should have escaped without hesitation, and she would have done so before. However, the boy's smile and words still echoed in his ears, and the witch, who would do whatever it took to survive and her goals, hesitated incredibly.
“…… The boy was a magician, and if he made a contract...... "completely ignoring the dangers that should be taken into account, Medea suddenly had a plan in her mind, she wanted to make the boy she had just made her Mater...... So, Medea got up from the ground and ran resolutely in the direction she had just fled.
"Now, I can catch up with ......"
Medea's speed is not fast, and she is a magician in the mythological era, and if she has enough magic, she can use flying to hurry. But now, she can only run on her feet.
Boom-boom-boom-
The trees on both sides were backwards, and the noise ahead was getting louder and louder.
In addition to the reason why Medea kept running past, it was also because the culprit who made a loud noise was shifting his position in this direction.
"The only one who can fight the Heroic Spirits is the Heroic Spirits, could it be that other Heroic Spirits have appeared?"
Just as Medea was distracted, a voice suddenly came from the side.
"Danger!"
"Huh?"
Before Medea could react, a figure rushed over, grabbed her waist and rolled to the side. And at the moment when they left the place, the crown of a large tree that had been cut off in the middle fell from the sky, and with a bang, the ground was smashed into a deep pit.
"Are you alright?" The boy's voice came to her ears again, and Medea came back to her senses and realized that she had just been saved by the boy.
"No, it's fine."
It's hard to imagine herself stammering, but Medea did stammer when she answered the boy, but she frowned immediately.
Because she found that the teenager's eyes were not on her. (To be continued......)
