I'm in Type-Moon, how can I let you bully me?

"Correct."

Trouble.

The witch of fairy tales, and the magician of the fifth law.

Xiel felt a little overwhelmed.

Anyway, let's try it out first, since she is immortal anyway.

......

Zila...

This is the sound of tempura being put into the pan and fried in hot oil.

As the food continued to cook, the temperature in the kitchen began to rise.

The temperature difference between inside and outside caused a thin layer of mist to form on the glass windows.

The sunlight shines through the mist and hits the sharp blade, causing it to glow coldly.

Aozaki Aoko just looked at the well-proportioned young man in front of her, watching him tie the apron string loosely around his waist.

Then, with a grim expression, she said, “Now, don’t you have anything to say?”

Russell rolled up his sleeves to his elbows, revealing his well-toned arms. Without looking at Aozaki Aoko's eyes, he whispered, "Aoko, what do you want to eat tonight?"

"Don't change the subject! Look me in the eyes and answer me!!!"

Aozaki Aoko gritted her teeth, and the resentment in her voice could not be concealed at all.

"Youzhu was so harsh, weren't you the one fanning the flames? Lately, my classmates in the student union and some of the younger girls have been asking me if I've offended some weirdo..."

Russell glanced at Aozaki Aoko, and the traces of battle around her eyes had not yet disappeared.

However, how could he not know how heavy the hands under the pearl were?

"After the sparring, injuries of that magnitude can be fully recovered using magic, right?"

"I do not care!"

Aozaki Aoko's purpose was very clear. Although she felt a little ashamed about it, she still looked at Russell eagerly and said.

"Just promise me that you'll replace this thing that looks like brass knuckles and boxing gloves with a weapon that can amplify destructive magic. Didn't you also say I have a talent for that kind of magic?"

She is indeed extremely talented. In her original world, Aozaki Aoko was able to learn destructive magic to the level of "simple magic formula that can be activated by just flowing magic power" after only two years of study.

In this respect, she even surpasses Yuzu.

but......

Russell looked at Aozaki Aoko speechlessly: "The reason for the change is actually so childish. I really don't know what to say to you."

The reason why Aozaki Aoko suggested changing weapons was simply because she felt that she had heard that Aozaki Touko's fighting posture when using magic was very elegant, and if she went into battle with this pair of brass knuckles, she would definitely be laughed to death.

Just for this reason.

Should we say that self-esteem is unique to high school girls?

"Just give it to me!"

Aozaki Aoko let out an unwilling cry.

Russell didn't say much, but just gradually approached Aozaki Aoko.

"Come and get what you want."

Faced with the approaching Russell, Aozaki Aoko gritted her teeth and refused to retreat.

But unexpectedly, Russell's pace did not stop at all, and he pressed straight towards her.

Feeling the close distance, even being able to hear Russell's subtle breathing, Aozaki Aoko couldn't help but feel her heartbeat speed up. She leaned back strategically and asked, "What do you want to do!?"

"Get the ingredients."

Russell stretched out his right hand, passed it through Aozaki Aoko's waist, and took out the chilled tenderloin behind her.

Russell then went back to the chopping board and continued cooking as if nothing had happened.

Only Aozaki Aoko was left, feeling her heartbeat quicken.

"asshole!"

When you are alone and someone suddenly makes such an ambiguous move, anyone's heartbeat will speed up, right?

This person definitely has no good intentions!!!

Aozaki Aoko had never suffered such a loss before. She jumped down from the table and walked towards Russell angrily.

"You bad..."

"Aoko."

A calm and cold voice sounded at the kitchen door.

In the eyes of Arizu Kuonji, at this moment when Russell and Aoko were alone in the kitchen, Aoko's heart beat faster and she walked towards Russell excitedly.

Aozaki Aoko's body froze, and she didn't even dare to turn her head to explain: "Youzhu, you know my..."

"Okay, Youzhu won't do anything to you."

The tenderloin flew up and down with the movement of the knife blade, and the chopping board made a frequent tapping sound.

Russell's voice was teasing. "Or is it that Youzhu would be unhappy about something like this? What's the reason for that? Does Youzhu have any possessiveness towards me?"

"Smug!"

Kuonji Yuzu gritted her teeth again and interrupted Russell.

Will she be possessive of Russell?

If she had any desire for Russell, she would have...

Before the flag was even set, a blue robin flew into the kitchen in a panic.

"Oh no, Miss Youzhu! This is not the same nun who visited a few days ago, but an equally young and beautiful girl is here to see Mr. Russell!!!"

"boom."

The poor robin exploded again on the spot.

21. You should pay homage to me

"stare--"

The atmosphere suddenly fell into a strange silence.

The originally frequent tapping sounds on the chopping board had stopped at this time.

Russell said in a daze: "I didn't expect it was her..."

"It seems that Mr. Russell knows the girl outside?"

Aozaki Aoko became curious.

She looked at Kuonji Arizu, who had unconsciously clenched her fists, and found it a little funny.

Still being stubborn, still being stubborn!

Isn't this just pure possessiveness taking over?

However, Mr. Russell does not seem to be a person with low emotional intelligence, and he can definitely sense Youzhu's emotions.

He didn't try to comfort her at this time, which really made him different from those boys in school who would comfort girls when they were angry, no matter whether they were right or wrong.

Aozaki Aoko thought so.

"It's okay to say we know each other."

After thinking about it, Russell did not give a definite answer, but asked a question.

"If a person were thrown into a high-temperature furnace for disintegration and interrogation, that would be a horrible and painful death, right?"

"Why are you suddenly saying such horrible things!"

Aozaki Aoko didn't realize anything yet, she just said it with a shudder.

Jiuyuan Temple Youzhu seemed to have noticed something and was a little dazed.

Russell ignored Aozaki Aoko's question and continued, "If a person were thrown into aqua regia, which can dissolve everything, for interrogation, that would also be a horrific punishment and pain, right?"

"..."

Aozaki Aoko gradually realized something and fell silent.

"What if a person's nerves and bone marrow were removed, but they didn't die, but were just carefully isolated and interrogated?"

At this point, even Russell sighed.

"That girl was like that. Simply because she possessed a high degree of immortality, she suffered thousands of repeated and brutal killings."

"why is it like this......"

Aozaki Aoko was speechless for a moment.

She actually knew some of the magicians' personalities and the cruelty of the magic world.

But I never expected that such an inhumane thing could happen now.

This incident, in the report or in the narrative of the parties involved, may only be a short paragraph -

"Due to its immortality, repeated attempts have failed to crack it. We recommend incorporating it into the burial mechanism."

But only after understanding the details can you realize how cruel it is.

Eventually, the girl, Hijelle, was even willing to accept the fact that she could continue to work with the people who repeatedly killed her.

After experiencing thousands of repeated brutal killings, Xiel was still able to maintain his basic personality.

Even his personality has not been overly distorted, and he still wants to be a "good person".

Xiyeer is such a character with low presence and lower popularity than other heroines.

But its misery is so despairing.

"I almost forgot..."

Slowly placing the chef's knife on the chopping board, Russell's originally bright eyes became dim at this moment.

The Type-Moon world is not a beautiful world.

This is a dark world where justice and violence coexist, and it is bloody, cruel, violent and disgusting to no small extent.

"The Holy Church, or rather, this world, does have such a dark side."

Therefore, before conquering the Holy Church, a major purge is needed.

Let's start with the most notorious burial mechanism, which even the Holy Church itself despises.

After untying his apron, Russell walked out of the mansion.

......

When Xiel, holding the disguised Seventh Sacred Scripture, stood outside the Kuonji Mansion and saw Russell for the first time, she was certain that—

The man in front of me is definitely not that guy Luo Ya.

Although there is a smell of blood, he is not a bloodthirsty person.

Although he is surrounded by murderous aura, he is not a bloodthirsty person.

Although he was feeling angry, he was not an easily angered person.

On the contrary, what Hieler felt from Russell were only warmth, compassion, kindness and other beautiful emotions.

The Seventh Holy Scripture, which had been converted into a firearm, slowly dropped at this moment.

Xier's expression was slightly apologetic, and he said sheepishly, "It's really presumptuous of me to come here without any prior notice. I just want to confirm something. This is also the mission assigned to me by the church."

She knew that Russell in front of her should already know the purpose of her visit.

"I just wanted to test the authenticity of what Father Wen Bingyongli described. Now it seems that you do possess the mysteries of the Church."

Xier confirmed that although she was not a fanatical believer, nor even a devout believer, she could only be considered a shallow believer.

But I still have a good impression of Russell.
