Anime: Fight Sukuna at the beginning?.

Chapter 311 "Old man, give me gold coins!"

As soon as Matou Zouken said that he would "legitimately" take Matou Sakura away, before Fang Yi could reply, he heard a deliberate and loud sound of a sword being drawn.

The expressionless swordsman lady standing beside Fang Yi once again drew out the [California Clear Light] from her waist.

Although this swordsman has a rather slender figure, he is still in a [sick] state and has not fully recovered.

However, the faint murderous aura that emanated from the swordsman lady after she took the sword still made Zouken Matou, who was about to step forward to take away Matou Sakura, smile and subconsciously took a few steps back.

He felt that his body was not under the control of his brain, and he made such a cowardly and timid action just by hearing the sound of the other party drawing the sword.

After being tricked by Fang Yi with the [Self-Compulsory Certificate], the anger that had been suppressed in his heart suddenly surfaced again.

He stared at the female swordsman next to Fang Yi, as if he wanted to embed her figure and appearance into his mind.

At this moment, the old man had only written Fang Yi's "kill list" and "gloriously" filled in the name of the heroic spirit [Okita Souji].

[Even though it's a horribly inferior 'card' in Saber's world, it's disrupted my plans time and time again.]

[As annoying as her Master.]

Zouken Matou instantly gave up his original plan to kill the opponent quickly, and instead decided on a more evil and insulting plan for the Heroic Spirits.

Letting Kariya summon Lancelot and kill her so easily would be too easy for her. We can't let her disappear too quickly.

[I will place the [Spinal Cord Worm] inside her body, and with my understanding of the Command Spell system, control her body, and then]

(Note: In the HF arc of the fifth war, Kirizo Ken used this method to control the body of Caster Medea.)
Although he was very angry inside, he had already come up with a plan to deal with the other party's heroic spirit at the speed of light.

But Matou Zouken, who was facing a sword, laughed.

He has already figured out a way to bypass this heroic spirit that is at odds with him and take away Sakura Matou.

"Master Fang Yi, it seems your servant is 'disobeying' orders again.

"I think you may not have mastered some of the uses of the Command Spells, so I am here to inform you of a fact.

"The three strokes of the [Command Seals] on the back of your hand can forcibly command your servants.

"Also, according to the contract, I'm in a truce with you. Therefore, if you 'learn' of this news, you naturally need to stop it."

Seeing Okita Souji turn around and look at Fang Yi at light speed and shout "Master!" with an unwilling look on his face, Matou Zouken showed a smug smile on his face.

[The 'compulsion' effect of the contract is not something you can only utilize.]

[In addition to taking away the 'placenta', it can also make him waste a precious Command Seal, alienate him from his Servant, and greatly weaken his combat power.]
-
Facing Zouken Matou who was smiling but actually aggressive and walking towards him slowly.

Fang Yi did not waste the Command Spell as the other party wished, but instead raised the corner of his mouth into a standard and charming smile and gave a straightforward answer.

"Your request is reasonable, but if you want me to waste a precious Command Seal on such a matter...

“Then I have only one answer.

“I refuse.

"You can't take this girl."

After hearing Fang Yi's reply, Matou Zouken was puzzled as to why the other party was unwilling to give in, and he also laughed secretly.

[No matter what your purpose is, you have no choice but to keep the 'placenta' under the 'contract'.]

He did not stop walking towards Matou Sakura, but instead gave a sinister laugh and responded to Fang Yi's words in a teasing manner.

“I don’t know why you are trying so hard to stop me from taking my granddaughter away?

"I just want to take my granddaughter to see my son."

Fang Yi rudely interrupted Matou Zouken's words.

"Stop playing those annoying little tricks, old bug.

"Now that things have come to this, let's just be frank."

Fang Yi paused and looked back at Matou Sakura.

Then he turned around, walked in front of Matou Zouken, and looked down at him.

With a bit of anger, he told the old man a lie that he had prepared and that was sure to deceive the other party.

"If I let you take away this girl who seems very important to you, leaving me with an empty house.

"How are you going to hand over all your magical knowledge to me intact?

"Do you want me to chase you and ask for it?

"Therefore, this girl who is very important to you must stay as a hostage."

Looking at Matou Zouken who was about to refute him again, Fang Yi grinned and showed his ultimate "sharp blade".

"Old Bug, although I don't know what you are going to do, I can sense that you seem to be in a hurry to get out.

“But whatever tricks you’re going to pull, I don’t care.

"Because your tricks are nothing compared to my strength!"

Fang Yi stretched out a finger and waved it in front of Matou Zouken, whose eyes were almost blazing with anger.

He forced the old man into a corner with only one way out and calmly completed this "kill".

"I only care about whether I can acquire the knowledge of 'magic' normally, and whether you can teach me your [Insect Magic].

“If you want to go out, and you insist on taking this girl who seems so important to you with you.

"Then you must abide by the contract and stay here without going out. First, you must teach me the [Insect Magic] which takes a very long time to learn.

"You don't agree? Then please start teaching [Insect Magic] and stay here, Mr. Matou."

[Old man, please give me some gold coins! ]
-
As Fang Yi uttered the request, the curse magic of [Self-Compulsion Certificate] with the "compulsion" effect was activated.

Under Zouken Matou's resentful gaze, the old man who looked like he was about to die began to explain the secrets of [Insect Magic].

"To perform [Insect Magic], the [Magician] must possess water-attribute elements and be able to understand the characteristics of the Matou family's [Absorption]."

Although he was talking about his signature magic that he didn't want to show anyone, Zouken Matou did not immediately accept Fang Yi's suggestion to leave Sakura Matou by his side as a 'hostage', but instead struggled with full confidence.

"Little ghost, your attribute is wind, which does not meet the requirements for learning [Insect Magic].

"You won't be able to delay for much longer. The 'Contract' will determine that you cannot learn this magic, and I will naturally be able to learn it."

But after talking for a long time, Matou Zouken was surprised to find that the "contract" did not terminate his "teaching".

He suddenly had a bad premonition in his heart.

[Oh no, I'm afraid my plan won't work.]

He might have a strange talent like Tohsaka Tokiomi's daughter, Tohsaka Rin, who possesses the "Five Elements Composite Attributes," and be able to master all-attribute magic. Or...

Matou Zouken, who was thinking about a solution, suddenly realized that his mouth had stopped and his body was under control again.

Fang Yi's somewhat arrogant and rude words once again reached his ears.

"How about this, can I take this girl as a 'hostage'?"

All Matou Zouken did was bow down and speak humbly, just like when he first met Fang Yi.

"As you wish, Lord Fang Yi."

I can't continue teaching him [Insect Magic]. If I keep doing this, he might discover the [Marking Worm] in the 'placenta'.

[For now, we can only let 'Placenta' serve as his eyes and ears.]

Let him be arrogant for a few days
-
After Matou Zouken "taught" [Insect Magic] for a few minutes, Fang Yi heard several prompt sounds in his ears.

You do not meet the prerequisites for learning the skill [Insect Magic]. However, due to the trait [Emperor of All Arts] and unknown factors, you can overcome the restrictions and learn the skill [Insect Magic].

[The character [Matou Zouken] taught you [Insect Magic].]

[Because the character has a very high level of mastery of this skill, only 3000 points are required for this learning.]

The trait [Jack of All Trades] has the effect of [Reducing skill learning requirements].

Using the universal material [Philosopher's Stone (Fake)], he activated [Transplantation] to process the [Magic Circuit] and transplanted it, which also brought some invisible adaptability gains.

After paying 3000 points to learn this skill and obtaining [Insect Magic lv3], he squeezed out the other party's value.

He then waved his hand towards Zouken Matou who was bending over and let him go.

The other party simply wanted [Matou Kariya], who hated [Tōsaka Tokiomi], to summon Berserker [Lancelot] to deal with him.

He didn't mind it.

Besides the fact that the next step of his [Assessment Mission] required summoning a certain number of Heroic Spirits, and he didn't want to cause any complications, that Heroic Spirit was also the key to the rift between [Tōsaka Tokiomi], [Gilgamesh], and [Kotomine Kirei].

Fang Yi is not going to interfere with this plot.

Besides, the next time I meet Zouken Matou, that will be the day this old bug dies.

The effect of [Insect Magic] was much better than he expected.

This is truly a betrayal of one's roots.

Evaluation:

【Trivial Skills】
-
This skill has great potential for Fang Yi.

The two poisonous insects he obtained from the enemy that he had not yet fully understood could be studied using this skill combined with the [Alien Affinity] in the [Affinity Bamboo Tube].

It is foreseeable that he will encounter enemies like Liao Lin and Yuan Qi who are armed with poisonous insects in the future.

Fang Yi vaguely felt that acquiring this skill would allow him to find the enemy who had been targeting him more quickly.

At the same time, in the camp store of the [Oberg Assassination Society], there are also dangerous [insect-like] species [Creeping Things] that can be exchanged for and have great transformation potential.

He also has a series of methods that can enhance the combat power of insects, such as [Alchemy·Body Transformation].

As long as he invested a little bit of resources and used the [World Special Permissions] to exchange for some [Creeping Things] and transform them, he could add another good 'card' to his hand.

In this mission, this skill allows Fang Yi to accurately sense insects, ensuring that he will not miss any of Matou Zouken's [Marking Insects] in battle.

It also allows him to compete with his opponent for control of the bug during battle, making it easier to crush the opponent.

He only needs to study it and familiarize himself with it before he can apply it in battle and prepare a big gift for the old bug.

Ms. Zhuang also has the skill [Baptism Chant] which allows her to perform [High-Speed ​​Chanting] like a magician from the Age of Gods, and is extremely effective against these insects.

He was fully prepared to kill the other party.

Now, he needed to calm down Sakura Matou, the 'hostage', and ensure that his plan would not go wrong.
-
Fang Yi turned around, walked to the girl and squatted down.

He cleared his throat and prepared to explain to the girl beside him to calm the 'hostage' down.

However, he didn't expect that Sakura Matou would take the initiative to grab Fang Yi's clothes and gave Fang Yi an unexpected response in a very sensible way.

"Thank you for being willing to protect me from Grandpa.

“What you did was good for me.

"You are a good person to me and you won't hurt me, right?"

[Unexpectedly precocious and smart. ]

Fang Yi swallowed back the words that were about to come out and silently touched the girl's head.

He said "yes" and stood up, turning to the swordsman lady beside him.

Now is the time to try to trigger the [Breaking Limits·Absolute Sword] mission that can enhance the strength of yourself and your heroic spirit.
-
The swordsman lady standing by saw that the girl had completely escaped from Matou Zouken's 'clutches', and the indifference on her delicate face 'melted' a little.

She narrowed her eyes, raised the corners of her mouth slightly, and walked happily to the man.

Obviously, Miss Yingling really appreciated her Master's action just now, so the tone of her "mind communication" was a little lighter.

"Master, how was the performance I just 'complained' to you about?
"It should have helped you to implement your plan smoothly, right?"

Fang Yi took Sakura Matou out of the basement and gave an objective evaluation of the swordsman lady.

"Well done, you are indeed a Servant who is compatible with me. You quickly understood my plan and cooperated with me to implement it.

"So there will be a reward for you later."

The female swordsman approached the man and asked curiously.

"award?
"For me? What do you want me to do?"

Fang Yi smiled slightly and kept the question in suspense.

"I do need your cooperation, but for now it's better to find a 'sponsor' for the reward."
-
A few minutes later, in the Matou family's magic workshop.

After using [Transparent World·Strengthening] to steal a lot of money from Zouken Matou along the way and collected a lot of gems from here.

Fang Yi made a somewhat 'weird' request to the swordsman lady beside him.

"Take off your clothes."

The swordsman lady was stunned and pointed a finger at herself.

"Eh? Me?"

Fang Yi smiled and nodded.

After rewarding his servant for completing the [Breaking Limits: Absolute Sword] mission, he prepared to try to contact Miss Zhuang and arrange a rendezvous point with her.

　Attributes can be changed.

　　For example, Sakura Matou was transformed into water by the old bug using imaginary numbers.

　　Because Fang Yi transplanted Aozaki Touko's magic circuit, he is also a wind like her.
