I am the protagonist

"Countless insects are hiding underground in the Matou family's residence."

"Is this a family that specializes in researching this kind of insect magic?"

"He's definitely a troublesome guy."

Shirou could tell from the insect still suspended in mid-air that the magician was extremely cruel, even quite dangerous.

This kind of magician must also be someone who values ​​their life quite a bit.

If not handled properly, the other party might be like an insect hiding in the shadows, suddenly appearing and taking a bite.

[It definitely needs to be addressed.]

[It sounds like the magician who uses magic is Shinji Matou's elder.]

[To use such a vicious magic trick on one's own descendants... such a person has no humanity whatsoever.]

Theoretically, we should perhaps approach this with even greater caution.

But this time, we still alerted them.

If this isn't dealt with quickly, it could really cause trouble.

Shirou had already made up his mind.

Regardless of who in the Matou family is using magic, this matter needs to be resolved as soon as possible.

His eyes fell on Matou Shinji, who was trembling uncontrollably.

"Thank you very much for the information."

"Now, you can forget about me."

"Varied……!?"

In an instant, all the light in Shinji's eyes disappeared.

Shirou did not show any mercy because of this.

Any anomaly is a problem, and once someone discovers your situation, it remains a major issue.

Of course, Shirou didn't actually kill him.

Since you said you wouldn't kill anyone, that promise will not change.

While Shirou wouldn't actually kill Shinji Matou, his memory is a major problem.

Shirou will show no mercy when it comes to Shinji Matou's memories.

Chapter 94 Rin: Shinji Matou, who cares if he lives or dies?

"Ok?"

Rin, who was waiting at the entrance of Shirou's classroom, suddenly felt a fluctuation of magical energy.

Seeing that Shirou wasn't in the classroom, Rin walked towards the direction of the magical energy fluctuations.

What idiot would use magic at school?

Rin walked toward the location where she sensed the magical energy.

The entire floor of students left early under the influence of magic.

That's something a magician would do.

Reaching the corner, Rin cautiously peeked to the other side and then saw the person in question.

"Shirou?"

Rin saw Shirou standing over there and some guy kneeling on the ground.

That's... Shinji Matou.

[That's strange, why is Shinji Matou approaching Shirou again?]

She naturally knew Shinji Matou.

He confessed his feelings to her when she first entered high school, and at the time he was just curious about her identity as a descendant of the Matou family and did some research.

However, after investigating, Rin realized just how depraved this guy really was.

They could already be called humanoid self-propelled guns in the school.

He had some kind of relationship with many girls in the school.

It was around that time that Rin developed an unusual aversion to Shinji Matou.

Furthermore, Rin had heard that this guy even had those kinds of thoughts about his own sister.

Seeing that it was Shirou who made it, Rin boldly walked around the corner.

"Shirou, why are you using magic so openly at school?"

"It's because some special circumstances have occurred."

"Shinji Matou...is this the special situation you were talking about?"

Although the Matou family is a famous family that pursues the path of magic, they are quite well-known in the world of magicians.

But that fame is a thing of the past.

Rin didn't know that the Matou family's true fame didn't come from the recent generations, but from the generation that first created the Holy Grail with the Einzbern family and their Tohsaka family.

Shinji Matou is, at best, just a playboy with a strong sense of pride.

This person has no magical talent whatsoever and is incapable of becoming a magician.

Shirou shook his head and pointed to the insect still floating in the air.

"He's not the one in real trouble."

"The real trouble is the worm hiding in his body."

"Insects... are these magicians' familiars?"

Rin's gaze was fixed on the insect in mid-air; its sharp teeth, which didn't look like insect teeth, made her feel numb all over.

Just seeing this disgusting thing makes people feel uncomfortable.

"Shirou, where did this thing come from?"

"What other places could there be?"

“Look, it was pulled out from the heart of the person in front of you.”

"!?"

Rin's gaze suddenly narrowed.

My gaze was fixed on Shinji Matou's chest, and I did see a bit of blood.

"This familiar was actually pulled out from this guy's heart?"

"The Matou family used to be skilled at creating familiars. I've also heard that the Matou family used to create a lot of magic related to familiars."

"I never expected that the Matou family would use this kind of magic on their own people."

This kind of thing is truly chilling.

It was at this moment that Rin remembered something her father had once said.

Listen carefully to Rin.

There is no affection in a magician's family.

For a magician, family members are essentially his private property; even his wife, husband, and children are no exception.

Many magicians forget and sacrifice many things in pursuit of their goals.

And such magicians are also the most dangerous.

Be careful when you face this in the future.

Rin didn't have a very deep impression of this sentence in the past.

Ultimately, since this kind of thing hasn't happened to me personally, it naturally doesn't resonate with me much.

Because Rin has always believed in the principle that even tigers don't eat their cubs.

Therefore, Rin believed that what her father said was just to warn her against any magician.

But Rin never expected that such a magician actually existed.

"He is a very cautious and meticulous magician."

"This substance is implanted into a person's body to control them."

"Although I don't think this person is worth controlling, this kind of thing might also be useful for transmitting messages."

Shirou only recently became a true magician, but he is very knowledgeable about the methods of magicians.

Isn't this the only purpose of implanting this insect into the human body?

Shirou could almost imagine other possible uses for this insect.

"Well, there is indeed such a possibility."

"...Tch, would it have been this complicated if it weren't for your curiosity?"

In fact, Rin personally didn't want to care about Shinji Matou's life or death.

Even if she knew now that there was a familiar worm in Shinji Matou's heart, she wouldn't bother with it.

If Shirou were the one who got into trouble, Rin would definitely be worried.

They would definitely want to help solve it.

But as for Shinji Matou... in the end, it's a matter for the Matou family itself.

They wouldn't mind using their offspring as materials for magic tricks.

Rin isn't someone overflowing with a sense of justice.

"I've only developed a slight interest."

"I personally have some knowledge of magic."

"Recently, I've also been considering both the positive and negative aspects of each person."

"It's just that this person is a little strange."

Shirou was only slightly curious because he saw the person's twisted nature.

Coincidentally, Shirou has a deep understanding of both positive and negative aspects.

Otherwise, Shirou wouldn't have discovered exactly how to trigger each person's "positive" and "negative" actions.

It might even devour those two sides, making itself a complete soul.

"He himself has no magical talent, but he really wants to be qualified to use magic."

"I feel proud because I have magician blood."

"But I hate that I can't use magic and can't become a magician."

"There are quite a few people like that in the world of magicians."

Magicians are a very special kind of existence in the world.

If you're not a magician, then you shouldn't have any expectations.

But if one's ancestors were magicians, but one is unable to inherit the magician's talent, then this feeling might change drastically.

Rin knew what had happened to Shinji Matou.

Therefore, Rin had long suspected that Shinji Matou's inner self was already rotten.

"But what should we do now?"

Chapter 95 My Sister's Connection to the Holy Grail

"The magician doesn't like this kind of behavior."

Shirou knew perfectly well that no magician would like to do such a thing.

Things like familiars are like a magician's eyes.

The familiar implanted into a person's body is not just a simple eye; it's more like a dog urinating on its territory and leaving its scent.
