The Dark Way of the Egoist: A Serial

Chapter 104: The Holy Grail War has been changed. There are many perspectives of supporting characters. If you don’t want to watch it, skip it.
“…” Dak’s face froze and he lowered his head.

Of course, the reason for his drastic change in expression was not because Matou Sakura had snatched his position as the successor to magic.

It was just to satisfy Zouken Matou's bad taste, and it was just an act to make the old man happy.

And this means that Sakura will have to go through Zouken Matou's transformation again, and Dark will also have to experience Barbatos' so-called technique.

The current Dark is no longer the former Shinji, and he doesn't care at all about the so-called inheritance rights of magic.

The inheritance rights of the Matou family are useless. It would be better for the old man to die early.

This will also allow Shinji to continue his childhood dream of being a partner of justice.

This was also the mentality of "Shinji" in the past.

But this obviously doesn't work in today's world. This is a dangerous and mysterious world.

Only power is real.

Because he was weak, the original "Shinji" was toyed with by the old bug.

Unfortunately, the current "Shinji" is no longer a weakling.

But it’s Brother Hang!

As a cheater, Dak is actually the type of person who has indirect ambitions and the mentality of an ordinary person who continuously just eats and waits for death.

He seems to be very logical when he talks, but he tends to be lazy whenever he has free time. So he never denies that he likes to enjoy himself and hates work. The real him is obviously not as pure as the fantasy character.

Return to the room.

The situation that Barbatos described was unknown to Dark. Considering that this body was still that of an ordinary person, he had to be prepared - Dark could roughly understand some of the functions of the curse.

Put the towel prepared in advance into your mouth to prevent biting your tongue. Make the sheets into a thick and soft "rope" to wrap your hands and feet. There is no need to worry about strangling your body if you put clothes under the rope.

The rope is not tied very tightly, it is just for fixing the body. It is the type that is difficult to break free from with brute force, but can be easily untied.

The world felt quieter than ever at this moment, and the only sound in the room was the ticking alarm clock.

In Dark's ears, even the sound of his heartbeat could be heard clearly.

"coming!"

The moment this thought came to his mind, Shinji's expression looked as if he was stunned.

His muscles were cramping and convulsing, and he almost died on the spot.

The body seemed to be torn apart, spreading from the surface to the inside.

It's like inserting an iron skewer, but there are not just one but many.

Damn, this technique is indeed aimed at the body, not just the pain.

There is a difference between the pain that Dark suffered and the pain that Sakura suffered.

The receptive capacity of human senses is limited, and so-called infinite pain does not exist for a single personality.

Sakura, who was attacked by insects, has other factors in her sense of the outside world. She is also in great pain but can easily become numb.

The same was true for Dak. Dak's consciousness could bear it and it was easy for him, but his body was just a pure reaction of pain.

Furthermore, the engraved worms burrowed into the body, and the pain as they went deeper along the magic circuits came in waves, gradually going deeper and deeper.

Dak's brain could still think normally, but his body's nerve reactions could not be stopped. The violent beating of his heart gave Dak the feeling of heart-wrenching pain, which was sometimes light and sometimes heavy and unbearable.

The main thing that bothered Dak was the illusion that there were bugs crawling inside his body...so disgusting.

The only useful preparation that Dake had made for this moment was to defecate in advance, so he did not suffer from incontinence. The towel that was used to prevent him from biting his teeth and howling was useless because he had lost the ability to control his mouth.

The rope to prevent him from struggling violently was of no use. After all, he had completely lost the ability to control his body, like a dead salted fish.

Time seemed to have stopped, and it seemed like a very long time had passed.

"Fuck, how long will this take? This old bug is playing too perverted." Dak really wanted to complain.

His current state is equivalent to his consciousness leaving his body, and then the senses and nerves of this body are connected to Sakura Matou, obtaining the same feelings.

This is a synchronized technique that uses empathy, so you need to stay rational.

Once the person loses consciousness, the technique will easily become ineffective - this is mainly to ensure that the person does not die from pain.

But there is no such thing as suffering in a coma.

The main reason is that the Demon Pillar Barbatos, which cannot be manifested, does not have the ability to directly interfere with things here. Even the technique performed on Dark uses the vitality of this body.

So this thoughtful setting was made to prevent death.

With the help of that mysterious spiritual connection, part of Sakura Matou's physical condition was replicated on Dak.

This simultaneously transformed Dark's magic circuit, an advanced magic that was ingenious but had little meaning.

Perhaps someone like Shinji, who has magic circuits but whose magic circuits are blocked, is also an extremely rare "talent"?

This kind of problem wouldn't occur in a normal magus family.

The technique itself is divided into two parts, the active information replication part applied to Sakura Matou and the receiving part applied to Dark.

If there is a special way to observe, then you can see extremely faint thin lines spreading inside Dak's body. If there is any light, it is only flickering.

It didn't take too long. After all, the old bug didn't want to kill Sakura Matou.

We can imagine Matou Sakura's state. She must be in so much pain that she has lost herself, right? She can't think of anything else at all, and the only feeling in her mind is "pain".

At this time, Dak couldn't help but sigh that the rope was finally useful. The instinctive struggle of the organism was restrained, and the unexpected scream of pain was also blocked by the towel, so there was no loud noise in the room.

Although slightly different, this is the torture that Sakura Matou suffered.

Especially since Sakura Matou's mind is completely that of a child, it is hard to imagine how she manages to stay alive.

Under the naked malice of Matou Zouken, he was able to maintain his inner kindness and not be tortured to death.

Dark felt that Matou Sakura was really difficult.

This kind of pain is really unbearable for ordinary people. It can even be said that it is better to die than to endure this kind of pain.

Matou Sakura must have started to feel resentment towards Matou Zouken, right? Why torture her like this?
As for Dake...

"I really want to kill that old bug!" Although he was not the one thrown into the bug pool, Dak felt sick when he thought that the painful places in his body were filled with bugs.

After a while, the spell left by Barbatos stopped on its own.

Judging from the progress, this experience will require many more times.

After all, Shinji's physical fitness is far too poor compared to a normal magician.

Wow, luckily I wasn’t the one thrown into the bug bin, otherwise I would be so unlucky!

I finally understand why the novels I write too much are prone to bugs. My head is throbbing.
