"Yes," Medea was stunned for a moment, then nodded in confusion, "Although it was only at level B at the beginning, after integrating the legends of later generations, this ability has already reached level A. Basically, I can make items that conform to common sense, such as amulets that increase money luck, and even potions that are close to elixirs of immortality."

This seemingly insignificant ability is the greatest value of the caster. The props made with Medea's ability, if placed in modern times, will become precious gifts that other magicians would love to have. It can be called a walking money printing machine. Even if the master is just an ordinary person, he can be armed by Medea into a master with combat power surpassing that of other magicians.

However, because Roland has no need in this regard, the props currently made by Medea are very fragmentary, and most of them are given to Sakura.

Roland withdrew his gaze and walked towards the stronghold, recalling the call of the Holy Grail.

Although it is incredible and I cannot understand how this was done, but considering the words of the Holy Lord, the all-around hardworking boss who appears throughout the entire adventure, the possibility of this happening is not zero.

"I want to make a special prop to verify my...guess."

Chapter 56 The Evil Plan of This World

In the pitch-black underground cave, the Holy Grail was silently performing its functions.

Supplying the Servants with mana to maintain their Masters' contracts, and promptly recovering the Command Spells when someone is defeated...

As the greatest contributor to the Holy Grail War, it is based on the Third Magic Heavenly Grail, and its functions are not simply those manifested by the Holy Grail system. It is for this reason that foreign magicians will misjudge its role.

Until now, few people know its true location, or even if someone does know it, they are unable to do anything about it.

Because now it has already been dyed black.

Inside the Greater Holy Grail, in the dark wave of pure magic, a cursed black shadow stood in the center.

This place is actually a world of its own. In the center of the waves is a mountain of dried corpses. The sky, as red as blood, emits a gloomy light.

The cries of sorrow and pain echoed around, and the hypocritical evil god stood among them.

"It's our first battle, and no Servant has died yet? Well..."

Angra Mainyu, a collection of wishes that was given the name of the evil of this world, distorted the Holy Grail due to its own nature after entering it, and longed for his own birth and the destruction of mankind.

"It doesn't take that long. I forced the last contestant to qualify and rounded up the candidates. Now that they have already entered this vicious vortex, I can sense the malice of that guy, and the fight between them will never stop."

Thinking of the unintentional act that day, a malicious smile appeared on Angramainu's face. He had originally chosen the Master out of preference, but he did not expect that the seventh Master was so capable. Even with so many conditions missing, he still quickly summoned the Heroic Spirit and sent a Master away in advance.

Although he seemed to have felt that the contract between him and the Holy Grail was a little weak recently and he could no longer feel the spiritual connection, this was ultimately just a trivial matter. As the Greater Holy Grail, Angra Mainyu possessed the highest authority in this system and he did not need to fear Servants or Masters.

What needs his more attention now is another matter.

Angramainu stood up and looked at the stone platform opposite him. On it, ten gray octagonal rune stones were arranged in a circle.

As an unknown Heroic Spirit born with the title of the evil of this world, Angramainu's power was pitifully weak compared to his Servants, so despite his many struggles, he was quickly eliminated in the last Holy Grail War.

Then, his soul fell into the Greater Holy Grail, contaminated the magic in it in the form of a wish, and used the Third Law to take on flesh, and was sucked into the Holy Grail.

Originally, he should lie dormant until he seduced the victor into making a wish, and then use the long-distorted Holy Grail to allow himself to be born, thereby fulfilling his duty as the evil of this world and destroying all humans who deserved to be cursed.

But when he began to contaminate the Holy Grail, he discovered a fact.

——There has long been another powerful existence entrenched here. Fortunately, he seemed to have lost his will. When the Holy Grail went out of control, he controlled the two lucky people through the contract between the masters, used his incomprehensible power to distort the world, and summoned twelve special talismans.

Each of them has its own strengths, each has its own unique skills, each talisman is amazing, and the power of the twelve together gives Angra Mainyu an extra surprise.

The most puzzling thing is that after the twelve talismans were summoned, the powerful being suddenly disappeared. No one knows what attracted the other party.

But this undoubtedly gave Angra Mainyu an opportunity. He didn't need to wait for future opportunities. As long as he relied on the power of these spells and made a wish this time, he could be born as the true god of evil!

"They took away two more. Humph, but they will deliver them to us on their own initiative."

This is the power that even he desires. How can the cursed humans escape from it?

It seemed that because they had traveled too long a distance, the power of these talismans, although not disappearing, seemed quite weak.

Even if Angra Mainyu used up all his strength, he couldn't even activate it, let alone nourish and recharge it afterwards.

But it doesn't matter. After sixty years of accumulation, the magic power of Fuyuki City has reached the critical line for making wishes. Using this power and combining it with the third method, these spells can definitely be activated. Those lucky ones will not miss this opportunity.

All he had to do was wait with hope. These ten spells had been in contact with the evil of this world for so long, and Angramain was confident that those two guys definitely couldn't have mastered them better than he did.

When he is resurrected, he will snatch the talismans from them. Unless they are the real owners of these talismans, Angra Mainyu will not be afraid of any contender.

Although he was feeling very low emotions except hatred, Angra Mainyu showed a rare excitement when he thought of the scene of the talismans being gathered together.

"My brain is trembling..."

From the pitch-black Holy Grail, the terrifying laughter echoed once again.

-

"Ok?"

Roland was sitting at the dining table, holding a small knife and carefully carving on the precious stone.

"That's right, Master, you did a great job, didn't you? This has nothing to do with me..."

Medea looked at Roland with admiration and complained, "You are so good at making props and you can master magic at once. Sometimes I don't know if you are the caster or I am the caster."

"After all, strictly speaking, this is the first gift I made. To be on the safe side, it would be safer to ask you to check and fix any deficiencies."

Roland answered Medea's questions casually while concentrating on adding the finishing touches to the statue which already had a prototype.

"By the way, where's Sakura?"

"That kid went out to buy groceries early in the morning... Damn it, why is a kid more talented than me in home economics!"

Medea whimpered, somewhat unwillingly.

"Master, you actually let a child like that go out alone."

"Little kid?" Roland laughed. "With the amulet you gave me, it would be difficult for a normal magician to break through her defense. Besides, I also sent servants to guard her. What can happen..."

Roland paused for a moment, and the scarlet light in his pupils was now extremely bright and seemed to be about to burst out.

"Someone from the Matou family came to our door."

"Matou Zouken?"

Medea asked in confusion.

"No, it's the Berserker's Master," Roland stood up and threw the carved prop into the shadows.

"It's just right. Let's go ask him if he knows the secret behind the bombing of the Matou family. By the way, let him understand the price of trying to touch my things."

"——Let's take this opportunity to get rid of the berserker as well."

Chapter 57 That Lord

Matou Kariya walked on the street in a daze, his expression almost frozen, his pupils dilated, and his fists clenched. This decadent look would inevitably attract the attention of some passers-by, but he didn't care about it at all.

Even though it was a truce during the day, it was enough to show that this man had thrown aside his principle of hiding himself as much as possible during the Holy Grail War.

Because, for Matou Kariya at this moment, none of this matters anymore.

After all, he had no idea about the so-called Holy Grail, and knew nothing about magic. Apart from possessing magic circuits, he was a complete layman in this area. He just swallowed the necessary instructions according to Zouken Matou's requirements.

And this morning, one of the reasons that supported him to join the war disappeared.

It was unknown which duo had razed the Matou family home to the ground. After confirming this with his own eyes, Matou Kariya began to walk aimlessly on the street, looking around.

Matou Zouken and the like are totally unimportant, but Sakura is innocent. As if to convince himself, Matou Kariya wanders around and searches.

When he was about to give up, he was attracted by a pleasant smell when passing by the shopping street.

That was the smell of freshly fried pork chops. Ever since the renovation began, he had lost the right to taste these things, but out of nostalgia, he still looked towards the store numbly, and then, the little girl wearing a purple dress with lace, black long cotton socks, and standing on tiptoe like a cute doll came into his sight.

"Will Lord Roland like this taste?"

Sakura Matou tried a piece of pork chop and thought about it with some distress. After hesitating for a while, she finally left with the small basket woven by the caster.

"That's about it. Let's go back today."

Just as she was about to start her journey back and turned into an alley, an excited call came from behind her.

"cherry?"

“Uncle Kariya?”

After finding the right opportunity, Matou Kariya quickly ran over and stretched out his hand towards Sakura with some excitement.

"Why are you here? Did that old bug let you out? Never mind, follow me now. Now that the Matou family has been destroyed, you can return to Aoi..."

But before his hand could touch Matou Sakura, an invisible shield blocked his movement and caused blue electric light to quickly spread to his body, causing the outermost layer of insects to break away from the camouflage and fall to the ground as a burnt corpse.

When Matou Sakura came back to her senses from Matou Kariya's series of questions, what she saw was Matou Kariya's pitiful appearance, covering his mutilated hand.

“Are you okay, Uncle Kariya? This is the amulet that the master gave me. You were too emotional and it triggered its self-defense counterattack.”

Matou Sakura looked at Kariya with some worry. Although she couldn't understand his naivety, his kindness was not false. As long as he didn't offend her, it would be fine.

"As for returning to the Tousaka family, that is impossible. Uncle Kariya doesn't need to worry about it anymore. So, please take care of yourself."

Before Yanye could find out who the adult that Matou Sakura was referring to was, the girl's words made his face suddenly turn ugly.

“Why! Sakura, you don’t have to worry! You can go back to the past! You don’t have to worry about Tokiomi, soon, he will no longer be able to interfere with you!”

Matou Kariya's face gradually became distorted, and his hoarse voice gradually became louder.

“But, Uncle Kariya, you never seem to ask me if I want to go back to the old days.”

Until now, he still imposes this kind of self-kindness on himself without considering his own feelings. Although this starting point is impeccable, in the end, all that Matou Sakura can see in Kariya is the same twisted obsession as Matou Zouken to satisfy his own desires.

Looking at the somewhat crazy performance of Matou Kariya, her tone finally became cold.

"Although it was my grandfather's order at first, I wanted to stay with that adult myself. I don't belong to Tousaka, nor to Matou. Sakura only belongs to that adult. Please face the reality and put away those naive ideas."

Bowing slightly to Kariya, Matou Sakura bid a cruel yet polite farewell.

“Uncle Yanye, please don’t come to see me again. I’m afraid that adult will misunderstand.”

Seeing the usually well-behaved Matou Sakura looking like this, Matou Kirei looked incredulous. He gritted his teeth and decided to carry out his will. Such an opportunity was too rare. There was no one around Matou Sakura, and Old Bug was not there either.

"No, Sakura... I don't believe it. You must have been coerced to say such a thing... In that case, even if I have to use force, I will bring you back to Aoi!"

Although Sakura Matou has a high-level amulet on her, it is just a prop after all. Without energy replenishment, it will be exhausted sooner or later. If Sakura really wants to resist, she can only use servants.

"Please forgive me, Sakura."

Matou Kariya raised his hand, and suddenly, the buzzing sound of insects rang out in the silent street. Dense swarms of insects crawled out of his body, filling the gaps on his body, while looking eagerly in the direction of Matou Sakura.

But when she heard the voice that once frightened her, Matou Sakura just turned around and looked at Matou Kariya with indifferent eyes.

She clenched the bracelet in her hand. Compared to Matou Kariya, the half-baked one who looked down on others, Matou Sakura was even better at magic. With the help of caster's props, anyone who looked down on her would suffer a great loss.

Everything that belongs to Sakura belongs to Roland. This is a rule that has been engraved in her heart. She will never allow herself to be taken away by anyone else. Even her mother or sister will become Sakura Matou's enemy if they violate this rule.

Just when she was about to launch an attack, a hand pressed on her head. The familiar touch made the girl put her face against it, rubbing it with a happy look on her face. She looked at the person who appeared next to her and exclaimed in surprise.

"Lord Roland!"

Roland smiled, walked out of the shadows, and spoke softly as he looked at Matou Kariya, who was wrapped in a cloud of armor made of insects and ready to rush over, with a calm and indifferent gaze.

"Someone is coming."

The next moment, in the deserted alley, pairs of dark red eyes suddenly lit up in the shadows everywhere. Two black shadow ninjas appeared in front of Roland, and stretched out their hands on the left and right to form a barrier to protect Roland and Matou Sakura behind them, without any regard for Matou Kariya who was right behind them. It seemed that compared to the enemy, meeting the Eternal Lord was more important.

Then, they suddenly turned their heads, with undisguised hostility flashing in their dark red pupils.

More black shadow ninjas appeared on the surrounding walls and the entrance of the alley, sealing the place tightly. Then, they rushed forward and used the most primitive fists and feet to make Matou Kariya experience the long-lost pain again.

"I suddenly understand Gilgamesh a little. It's hard to be happy when people everywhere want to touch your things. But, Matou Kariya, it turns out that this crawling on the ground looks better for you."

Covering his abdomen, Matou Kariya, who was beaten by the Black Shadow Army without any ability to fight back, vomited a pool of black insect corpses. He did not care about anything else and quickly called for his trump card.

"berserker!"

Chapter 58 Can anyone else do it?

The pitch-black mist that rose from the sky turned into a tangible entity, and a tall knight appeared beside Matou Kariya, giving him some space to breathe.

After calming down the restlessness in his body, he raised his head and looked at the adult that Sakura mentioned, and the woman in the magician's robe standing behind him.

Thinking of the exquisite amulet on Sakura Matou's body before, as a participant in the Holy Grail War, Matou Kariya is not that stupid.

"Master of Caster... Damn it, did that old bug give Sakura to you?"

Thinking of the strange tolerance that Matou Zouken had shown before, Matou Kariya suddenly understood the whole story.

"What kind of deal did you make with that old bug! Give Sakura back to me and I'll give you whatever you want!"
