Anime: Fight Sukuna at the beginning?.

Chapter 376: Seventeenth Day of Sword Training
It is said that some athletes have high spirits but a missing link in their brains.

He would do something strange like stuffing women into suitcases and taking them back to the dormitory for the night.

Fang Yi also vaguely remembered a TV series that he quite liked.

It started with the body being put into a suitcase and carried into the subway, deliberately passing through security checks, which sparked public opinion.

This item was brought to Fang Yi by a passerby who was controlled by [Suggestion Magic].

Instruct him to open the suitcase 'inside'.

Completely filling its interior is a perfectly folded human body.

Or rather, the female body named Aozaki Touko.

This [Grand Puppeteer] who was previously dressed as a white-collar woman.

Its curvy body looks like a doll that can be manipulated at will.

It was presented in front of Fang Yi in a weird, incredible, yet somewhat tempting and distorted way.

But this 'doll' is a little different.

She can speak.

He is also very capable and has mastered a lot of [magic] and [body transformation] techniques.

Moreover, they are academic talents with research capabilities and are still valuable.

So should I close the box now? Or?

Without waiting for Fang Yi to respond.

Aozaki Touko had a slightly cold look on her face in the box.

A strange and even somewhat domineering voice once again entered Fang Yi's heart.

“If your brain isn’t sharp enough.

“I want to kill the countless [Familiars] that are lurking at the door of this mansion.

"Also, those [Sea Devils] released by [François] under the cover of [Illusions] have regained their surveillance capabilities.

"If they knew I was here and started to be wary of you, you should have pulled me out."
-
After not seeing her for a few hours, this woman has regained some of the edge she had when we first met, daring to attack me.

[For the sake of cooperation, let's polish it a little bit. 】

Fang Yi did not give Aozaki Touko the chance to finish her next words.

He snapped the box shut, ending the conversation.

After picking up the box and shaking it in revenge.

Only then did he use the increasingly proficient [Shrinking the Earth].

Like shaking an egg, he deliberately made Miss Aozaki in the box experience the feeling of motion sickness after a race.

He then went back to the underground workshop of the Matou residence and opened the box again.

After putting on a standard smile on his face.

He continued the previous conversation with Miss Aozaki, who was in the box with a pale face and a little dizzy.

"Your reminder is very reasonable, Miss Aozaki.

"I also think that our communication needs a 'safe' place."

Before Aozaki Touko could speak, Fang Yi suddenly unsheathed the long sword in his hand.

After a few hours of 'settling'.

Digested the meaning of skill branch benefits.

I plan to use the time I spend polishing Miss Aozaki's edges to test my progress in swordsmanship.
-
Aozaki Touko looked at Fang Yi who took out a long sword in front of him.

Even though she believed that men would not kill her, she would not actually die.

But when the knife light approached her, her body subconsciously tensed.

Then, he looked at Fang Yi who sheathed his sword.

He felt the suitcase, which had not changed at all, and stretched his limbs.

She realized and analyzed the other party's intention of brandishing a sword in front of her.

[Warning me? He's quite an interesting man, but it's a pity you chose the wrong one.]

However, the next moment, Miss Aozaki, who was about to speak, suddenly realized a horrifying fact.

My limbs can move freely, which means...

She turned her head and looked at the suitcase that originally contained her.

But he didn't see the suitcase that bound him.

Instead, he saw a ball of mist dancing as the man manipulated it with his fingertips.

Finally, the suitcase powder was neatly piled up on the ground to form a small hill.

After seeing the scene, he looked at Fang Yi in front of him.

Aozaki Touko's eyes almost popped out of her head.

Even the [visual insect] that was refined into an eye became unusually agitated.

The words I had prepared to say were instantly forgotten.

[Is this something that swordsmanship can do?]

[Is this a Servant that can be summoned by the Throne of Heroes? How can such a Servant be summoned by a [Holy Relic]?]
-
And I heard the prompt sound that [The friendship level of the character [Aozaki Touko] changed from [72/100] to [75/100]].

Although dissatisfied with the space's "stinginess" in improving friendship.

But Fang Yi was impressed by the skills and techniques he had demonstrated in the "One Knife" that he had practiced for sixteen days and was almost at the seventeenth day.

Still quite satisfied.

The [Sword Speed] bonus brought by the [Breath of the Sun·Enhancement] and [Breath of the Moon] skills and the traits [Blade Swiftness] and [Demon Slayer].

As well as the basic blessing of the power of [Swordsmanship] brought by [Nine Evolutions of Dragon Refining·Ya Zi] and [Realm·Who else but me].

In addition, there are the newly acquired [Absolute Sword] and [Kill Me], which are [active skill branches] that bring great benefits after being activated.

These are some insignificant gains that Fang Yi has accumulated in the past.

At this moment, he finally reached [LV5] of [Mastery of Swordsmanship].

It crossed the boundary of quantitative change and triggered a qualitative change.

His swordsmanship can now receive the same bonus as a reincarnation who possesses the [Swordsmanship] [Talent].

He had initially realized his original idea of ​​"learning a wide range of skills through [diligent study and improvement], and accumulating gains comparable to natural talent" in terms of combat power.

At this moment, although he has not yet learned the sword techniques such as [Swallow Return] and [Nameless Three-Section Thrust] that can be called space folding.

He also hasn't completed the [Potential Activation] using the [Eye of Vision] synthesized from the [Saint's Remains] that can activate the [Stand].

Understand the [Merger of Matters] brought about by the [Standard] that you should master.

But after "settling down" for a few hours and getting familiar with the various bonuses.

He was already able to use swordsmanship more 'sophisticated' than usual.

He used a "sword" that was as showy as Tsugumi Yuichiro's.

He was able to realize his sudden idea and reproduce the scene of chopping the Ghost King into minced meat on the suitcase.

By the way, he showed off his increasingly proficient skills of [Frozen Cloud] to his collaborators.

Looking at Aozaki Touko who has lost the ability to speak.

Knowing that he had already smoothed out the opponent's "edges", Fang Yi extended his hand towards the [Puppeteer].

He whispered it out loud sounding a bit arrogant.

But actually very simple words.

"Actually, it wouldn't hurt to let that [François] know of your existence and become wary of me."

“After all, for me now.

"[Whether there are one or two dust particles to be swept, the naked eye cannot tell the difference.]"

Because of the limited points, the [Assessment Tasks] have not been issued yet.

Fang Yi has basically no room for improvement.

I think it's time to get rid of [Li Shuwen] and clean up that [François] to earn points.

Let it make a little contribution to the [Perfect Dragon] mission that cost him a lot of points.
-
Looking at the man in front of me and listening to his arrogant speech.

At this moment, Aozaki Touko, who had lost the ability to speak, could no longer find the right words to describe the feelings rising in her heart.

Whether it is words like shocked, convinced, or horrified.

Obviously, it is impossible to accurately describe and define what I think of this man who calls himself "Fang Renyi" at this moment.

But there is no doubt that she admires and yearns for this powerful man.

So, for the first time in my life.

Aozaki Touko never wants to lose to others and always holds her head high like a swan.

He lowered his head as if he were a loser.

Facing this man, he quickly expressed his sincerity in cooperating in the tone of a subordinate.

“I investigated most of the workshops of [François] and his good friend [Caster Gilles de Rais].

“Even with the blessing of [Illusion], I cannot go deeper.

"But what I can confirm is that her core workshop, which is like her 'nest', is not among them.

"It will probably take some time to find her, as she seems to be wandering around."

As she spoke, Miss Aozaki took out a glass tube filled with transparent liquid from her bag and carefully handed it to Fang Yi.

“What I just did can warn you of her [Illusion]. Just use this.

“As long as I’m exposed to her fresher magic.

"The color of this glass tube will change to..."

Watching the glass tube quickly turn red after being taken out.

Aozaki Touko's eyes, which had just returned to normal, widened again.

"you you?"

Fang Yi took the glass tube and told the truth with a smile.

"It seems that Ms. Aozaki doesn't understand much about what happened in the past few hours.

"Yes, I killed her once."

Before Aozaki Touko could continue speaking, Fang Yi looked at the 4000 points that could be obtained after obtaining 8000 points in [Immortal Magician].

He added very easily.

"I was planning to kill her a second time, or even a third time.

"As many times as she can be resurrected, I will kill her until her existence is completely wiped out.

“For this answer from the collaborators.

"Are you satisfied, Miss Aozaki?"

Aozaki Touko first hugged her arms and looked at Fang Yi from head to toe.

Then she grabbed the man's arm with a little excitement.

“Please let me contribute as well.

"I already have some guesses about the location of her workshop."

The space prompt sound also rang in Fang Yi's ears.

The friendship level of the character [Aozaki Touko] has been changed from [75/100] to [80/100].

[This character has a high level of trust in you and can provide you with more help.]

[Continue to improve friendship and talk, which may trigger tasks related to [Derived World]]

Fang Yi waved his hand to stop the other party from speaking.

“Don’t worry, she’s not the only enemy I have.

"Therefore, I need to introduce you to some teammates who can easily dismantle the opponent's [Illusions]."

Fang Yi had already heard Miss Merlin's hint through the [relic].

[Hey, this is a reminder from the Sage.]

[My master and I, who have achieved something, are almost here.]

If you, Mr. Fang Yi, are sleeping with a woman in your arms, you'd better clean up the 'battlefield'.

At this moment, Fang Yi suddenly remembered some of the settings in [Relics] and [Severed Bonds].

This duplicate [relic] has a rather obscene [empathetic] use for two people.

Obviously, this trouble-making Miss Merlin has experienced her own experience and was "tricked" by herself once.

Thinking of this, Fang Yi's mouth twitched involuntarily.
-
An abandoned workshop.

[Otsutsuki Yuta] looked at the red archer in front of him.

Artoria and Irisviel, who were a little wary not far away, tried to persuade them again.

“So, this Mr. Caster.

"Is your camp interested in joining forces with the church to eliminate the mastermind behind this 'feast'?
"I can share some of the proceeds from tasks involving [Attention]."

The red archer scratched his head, listening to Emiya Kiritsugu's "rejecting his order" in his heart.

I rejected the other party's proposal with some regret.

"No, I'm so sorry.

"Mr. Otsutsuki, our camp still has many doubts about the church's true purpose.

"I really can't feel comfortable engaging in in-depth cooperation with them."

It was visibly seen that [Yuta Otsutsuki] was in a depressed mood.

The red archer couldn't help feeling a little ashamed, so he made another promise on his own initiative.

"But after all, our camp owes Mr. Otsutsuki a favor.

"So, I'd be happy to collaborate with Mr. Otsutsuki.

"And I'll introduce you to some servants who might be able to help you. A Saber I met before (Fang Yi) is very strong. He should be happy to..."

Kiritsugu Emiya on the side did not say anything, but just held the gun in his hand and looked at Artoria in the distance.

Inserted the word 'irrelevant'.

"It's enough for Saber to protect us."

Hearing the red archer's promise and Emiya Kiritsugu's words.

[Otsutsuki Yuta] laughed happily.

He once again tentatively asked the red archer about his identity as a reincarnation.

"Mr. Caster, are you aware of the profits from this 'feast'?"
-
Matou residence, magic workshop.

"This is Aozaki Touko, a magician.

“The man who tracked down and defeated [Francois] once.

“We are currently a strong partner.”

Just when Fang Yi said this.

After introducing Miss Aozaki's location to Miss Zhuang, who had a cold look on her face.

However, Fang Yi felt that the indifference on the other person's face seemed to deepen.

After exchanging glances with Miss Aozaki, Ms. Zhuang did not introduce herself.

Instead, he chose to get straight to the point.

"According to the latest intelligence, that new 'Agent' is someone I haven't had much contact with, just like you.

"I encountered a man with the same abilities as Francesca and had a duel.

"It's not a clear winner. The opponent's [Illusion] is very powerful."

Fang Yi nodded slightly.

He naturally knew that Miss Zhuang was talking about the 'Scavenger', whose name he did not know yet.

Before Miss Zhuang could continue speaking.

Miss Merlin, who was standing by, curled up the corner of her mouth into a wicked smile.

He walked up to Aozaki Touko, who seemed to be out of place, and interrupted her with a smile.

He quietly introduced his Master.

"This is the 'Agent' of the Holy Church, Zhuang Zhengyan.

"Just call her Miss Zhuang."

It seemed that he saw Aozaki Touko's concerns.

Miss Merlin added in a low voice.

"However, she actually joined as a temporary worker to avoid liquidation by the Magic Association.

"'Faith' is very flexible and does not hate magicians.

"I promise."

Then Merlin stretched out his staff and tapped Aozaki Touko's hand which was in his pocket.

"So, can you stop using that clumsy Rune Magic?
"Also, as that man's partner, you shouldn't have such concerns."

Aozaki Touko looked at Miss Merlin in front of her.

He sensed the subconscious movement of his hands, but the [Rune Magic] was extinguished by the opponent with just a touch of the staff.

My heart was shocked.

[Who is this woman? ]

In shock, he glanced at Fang Yi standing beside him.

I became more curious about each other's past experiences.

[Who is he? If he is a Servant, how come he can gather so many supporters?]

What should I do?

Aozaki Touko, who had been listening to the information attentively, has become a little absent-minded.
-
A dark place.

[François] looked at Francesca who was sitting on the bed eating potato chips.

He stomped on the metal floor in dissatisfaction and roared.

“Where’s the ‘black mud’ that woman promised?

"How long will we have to wait for Jill's 'big toy'?"
