Or, why don’t you find another savior?

As he spoke, he swallowed one of the pills. In less than ten seconds, the stench of alcohol that seemed to emanate from every pore suddenly disappeared.

"Yumina?" Shiomi asked.

"I'm Burician. My name is Mayo Buricsan Kleinex."

"Oh~"

Shiomi let out a sigh.

Brichisan is also a famous family. Although they do not have the top power like Barthelmero, their family is no less outstanding in history and research, and they are a typical neutral family.

Using this as a middle name meant that Mayo was also a member of the family, or was under the protection of a member. Shiomi guessed that it was most likely someone from the branch family, but just by seeing the presence of people from Brihisan, he could see the importance of this social gathering at the Twin Towers.

"But I didn't expect to meet the famous 'Noble Killer' here. It's really an honor—"

Mayo was still pale, looking natural, and as he was smiling and complimenting, his hand that reached for the wine glass missed it.

"Where did that messed up name come from?" Xi Jian's eyes twitched, and even a blind man could see that he was unhappy.

"But... you did kill the previous El-Melloi in a one-on-one duel in the Holy Grail War nine years ago... no, almost ten years ago..." Mayrenyo explained awkwardly.

But before he finished his words, a new voice was heard.

"Mayo." The voice was gentle and familiar. "Since you know that the other party is the 'Noble Killer', you should say less, so as not to become someone else's record."

Xijian returned the wine glass to Mayo, turned around and smiled at the visitor.

"It seems that the rumors are true. You really came here, Orange." Shiomi greeted him warmly, which was completely different from the politeness when he talked to Mayo. "The seal has been lifted."

"It has been lifted for several years." Aozaki Touko smiled.

"That's good news indeed." Shiomi shrugged. "Your teacher said before that if the losses on the front line continue, I should go back to my old job and be responsible for your designated seal."

Orange couldn't help but smile, "That's really bad. I don't want to meet a rune magician like you."

"What teacher would be afraid of students?" Shiomi asked cunningly.

This made Chengzi even happier, and she responded to Xijian's joke, "Isn't this the truth that the disciple surpasses the master?"

Although they both knew the truth, Orange still cooperated and continued to play the role of teacher who taught Shiomi Rune magic.

At this time, cheers were heard from deep in the hall, and the three of them turned around to look over there.

Deep in the hall was a spiral staircase leading to the second floor. On the second floor, which extended out like a terrace, stood a pair of maids who looked like twins. Their figures were exactly the same, and their regular looks were enough to make people mistake them for the Golden Princess and the Silver Princess.

Obviously the real Golden Princess and Silver Princess are about to appear.

Chapter 30 Reminiscing with Aozaki Touko

After the two maids lifted their skirts and curtsied, they called out in unison to the back.

"Ms. Diadora."

"Miss Estella."

The purple dress separated from the shadow.

Time was torn apart.

All senses were lost in that instant, even the cliché "moment" flew away into the sky.

Shiomi stared at the faces of the two women calmly. He understood why the venue was so silent at the moment.

The eyes that look down on everyone are like gems in mythology; the ideal nose is undoubtedly carved by the best sculptor at the cost of his own soul; the lips are filled with the light of youth that will never fade, reminding people of the petals in the long-closed utopia.

But these descriptions also lost their color in front of this couple of women.

The Golden Princess and the Silver Princess.

Shiomi looked around and saw that some magicians were so stunned that they forgot to hold their wine glasses tightly, and red wine spilled all over their shoes; some were holding their breath and concentrating to the point of suffocating themselves; some even fell to their knees and burst into tears.

"So this is how they want to get to the source." As Shiomi said this, he glanced at Orange on the side.

She took off the glasses.

That was the means of switching between the two personalities that Aozaki Touko formed for her own needs.

After taking off his glasses, Orange becomes an extremely cold-blooded magician, without any human touch.

"Izeroma's history is indeed profound, but I didn't expect that even you, the crowned one, would be shocked." Shiomi raised the corner of his mouth.

Looking at the glasses in his hand, Orange turned his head and ignored the self-introductions of the Golden Princess and the Silver Princess. "If you put it that way, you are completely indifferent."

At this point, Orange put on his glasses again and said, "It's not convenient to chat here. Do you want to change places?"

"You go first." Xijian caught a glimpse of Inola's figure and knew that Chengzi was deliberately avoiding him.

So after saying hello to Mayo, Orange and Shiomi turned around and left the venue quietly, leaving the others there staring at the Golden Princess and the Silver Princess.

The two came to the lake outside the Shuangmao Tower.

The setting sun dyed the orange red hair into a richer color.

"The Golden Princess and the Silver Princess that Izeroma carefully prepared are not to your liking at all. If Mr. Byron knew about this, he would probably be frustrated." Orange commented with a smile.

"I have no interest in the origin." Shiomi stated frankly, something that would be considered treasonous in the world of magicians.

"Then why do we want to participate in the Holy Grail War?" Orange asked again.

"You asked this question five years ago." Xi Jian curled his lips, "What I am interested in is the ability of the Holy Grail to be a wish-granting machine. Whether it is wealth, fame or power, it is very convenient. Unfortunately, that thing has been contaminated. I can only be a good person and clean the Holy Grail."

Orange nodded in understanding: "It's been a few years since I last saw you, but you seem to have a new daughter? Could it be that you have a habit of adopting underage girls?"

"Who is it?" Shiomi was shocked. "I was just asked to look after him. He happened to be close in age to my own child, so it's better to stay together than to live in the student dormitory in the clock tower."

When he said this, he looked Orange up and down and said, "You, on the other hand, have settled down as well."

"A little later than you." said Orange.

What Shiomi mentioned as fixed was Orange's current appearance.

It has been more than ten years since she was chosen as the crown, but she still looks as beautiful as she is in her early twenties.

Although magicians often have secrets to keep their youthful looks, maintaining a youthful appearance is also one of their pursuits.

But neither Touko nor Shiomi belong to this category.

They are all completely fixed.

It's not just about the appearance, it's also about the impression it gives people, all kinds of things.

Just like people who see Orange would only think that she is a woman in her early twenties, people who see Shiomi would subconsciously think that he is a young boy who has just turned twenty or even less than twenty years old, a fledgling magician.

- For example, the aristocratic magician who verbally attacked Shiomi at the venue earlier thought that Shiomi was younger than himself and therefore not worth mentioning.

It’s just that the two people fix themselves at completely different times and in completely different ways.

Shiomi knew that Orange had been with her since their first official meeting, which might have been due to Orange's own magic skills.

And he...I'm afraid he has already been fixed in the Shadow Kingdom

Just like his master Scathach.

"Honestly, I have a headache too." Shiomi touched his head, "Because it's settled, Sakura's respect for me is completely based on the feelings of more than ten years, and Kallen basically treats me as someone a few years older."

"Hahaha~~, it looks like it's not easy for you either." Orange said with a smile.

At this moment, Shiomi stretched out her hand and placed it in front of Orange with her palm facing up. Coincidentally, at this moment, a famous jazz song was heard from the Twin Tower.

"It's indeed rare to dance together by the lake, but since it's your invitation, I might as well..." Orange jokingly stretched out his hand.

But Shiomi gently slapped it away.

"Don't give me that. I asked you to pay me back." Xi Jian looked ferocious. "You have enough money to go to England. It's not impossible for you to pay back some of the money you owe, right?"

Orange took his hand back regretfully, "I'm so sorry, I don't have any money at the moment."

The blunt words made Xijian give up in disappointment.

"But..." Orange suddenly changed his tone, "If you can show me some more original runes that I haven't been able to decipher, I can consider trying my best to raise money."

"Are you joking at this moment?" Xijian glanced at Chengzi.

"Half and half." Orange was very relaxed. "After all, I restored the foundation of Rune magic and analyzed several lost original Runes. Although I didn't pay much attention to it and sold them all to the Clock Tower, they are still my commendable achievements."

But one day, a magician who claimed to be her student and had learned the Divine Rune from her appeared, and Orange naturally couldn't help but take a look.

It turned out that the other party did not get the patent she sold from the Clock Tower, but owned the complete eighteen original runes.

To be more precise, he possesses a genuine foundation of magic from the Age of Gods.

In order to conceal this fact, all the magic performed by Shiomi during battle was performed in the form of great magic after consciously suppressing the power.

Orange's interest in the complete original rune in his possession was not a one-day thing.

However, before Shiomi could answer, a man ran out of the venue and found where Shiomi was.

It's Lanice.

"I'm sorry to interrupt your conversation...something happened." Lanis looked at Shiomi, "Karen is not doing well."

Chapter 31: Karen's Suffering

The Golden Princess and the Silver Princess only took a quick glance on the terrace before retreating.

There was no activity involving the two of them talking to other magicians.

After all, if those young people continue to face these magicians, they will definitely lose their minds because they feel something close to the root.

For example, Kallen.

She is not a top-notch magician, and she has the troublesome "abused medium quality".

Under the protection of Rune imposed by Shiomi, this physical condition has actually been suppressed to the greatest extent.

But that is only limited to the outside.

"I didn't expect that they would be breached from the inside. I underestimated the Golden Princess and the Silver Princess." Xijian said, slightly pushing aside Kallen's hair to reveal the bruise there.

Kallen rested her head on Shiomi's thigh, and there were several bruises on her body and cheeks.

The bruises at the corners of the eyes and mouth might make someone who didn't know the cause think they were injuries from being beaten.

But this is not a scar, it is a stigmata.

In a sense, it was also one of the proofs that Kallen was qualified to be baptized in the Cathedral Church.

"No, I'm fine." Kallen's voice was weak.

She fell down almost immediately after Shiomi left.

Fortunately, Gray was nearby, and she was eventually sent to the guest room in the Sun Tower.

——The Moon Tower is where the Izeroma family lives.

Lying on the bed that was so soft that it felt like a gravity-free space, Kallen didn't feel that bad, especially since Shiomi was still by her side watching over her.

Seeing the appearance of the Golden Princess and the Silver Princess, the impact from the vortex that seemed to be the root of everything unintentionally put a burden on her body.

"I underestimated the impact of Izeluma's achievements on magicians." Shiomi placed his hand on Kallen's head and used the softest magic to help her relieve the pressure on her physique. "I'm sorry for making you suffer."

The deep marks that appear will take some time to completely fade away.

"It doesn't matter. I was supposed to be abandoned, but my father kept me by his side." Karen shook her head gently. "My father has done everything for me perfectly. If even this little omission needs to be blamed, then how many parents in this world can be praised?"

However, the first time I experienced the attack of the medium's physical condition, it did not come from the influence of the spirit, but from the beauty of the Golden Princess and the Silver Princess, which was really surprising.

"It's okay, I'll stay here." Shiomi held Kallen's hand, "I won't leave until you fall asleep."

"Yeah." Kallen moved slightly closer to Shiomi's arms, "Although I'm already this age, please let me act like a spoiled child for once."

Xi Jian couldn't help but laugh, "How dare you say that. You've never acted like a spoiled child since you were a child."

"Because..." Kallen also smiled, "There's no need for that. Humans act like spoiled brats in order to get things that are impossible to get, but in the past, neither I nor Sakura needed this kind of behavior at all."

She turned her head to look at Grey who was sitting on the sofa in the room. The gravekeeper was nervously folding his hands and turning them slightly, his gestures like the Buddhist seals or the African cat's tangle.

“Don’t just take care of me, there is a child who needs your care.” Karin felt the gentle magic surrounding her body. Her body no longer felt heavy, and the pain gradually became like a dream that had never happened.

"No, I'm actually fine." Gray shook her head hurriedly, "It's just that after seeing the Golden Princess and the Silver Princess, I've been feeling uneasy... Why did you create such beautiful people?"

Anyone can see that the beauty of the Golden Princess and the Silver Princess is not natural, but something that can only be achieved through magic.

"Because beauty is the realm of magic," Shiomi said. "Mathematical coordination is necessary for the Magic Circle and the workshop. But Izeluma... or Barueretta, is evaluating it in a more fundamental way."
