My mother's love song

"..."

Morgan turned her expressionless face away and ignored Rhodes' malicious question.

"I understand, Master. If you say so, I will believe you for now."

She offered her hand, "I will get the Holy Grail for you. Please give me your guidance in the future."

...No comment?

Rhodes stretched out his right hand and shook Morgan's hand back, looking up at her and said.

"Let me enjoy this Holy Grail War, caster."

"!?"

The moment the master and servant held hands, the pattern on the back of Rhodes' hand glowed.

Morgan, noticing something unusual, exclaimed subconsciously.

"what are you up to?"

She wanted to shake off Rhode's hand, but found that the slender wrist of the boy, who was a head shorter than her, contained a strength that the Servant could not shake at all.

Then, magic power like hot water flowed through Morgan's palm into her body, corroding her magic mark.

The sensory organs throughout the body seemed to be highly activated, and the numb and slightly warm feeling spread through the skin and bone marrow along with the torrent of magic power.

“…Haaaa, haaa, haaa.”

Her cold and pure beauty became extremely charming as she was stained with crimson, and her breathing became rapid.

The infusion of magic power stopped.

Morgan bent down slightly, suppressing the trembling of his shoulders, and stared at the Master with resentful eyes.

“…Why would you do such a thing?”

"I'm not the type to sit back and command, so I'll be the one leading the charge in this Holy Grail War."

There are two things that Rod did.

The Command Seals were transferred. Rhodes transferred his Command Seals to his Servant.

This is a magus' behavior that is permitted within the rules of the Holy Grail War.

Forced contract, Rhodes will force Caster to sign a contract and make himself her servant.

This was something that could not be done within the rules of the Holy Grail War, but he could do it.

If you ask why, it’s because he is the rule.

The Cup of Riches kept by the Cathedral Church is not the real Holy Grail, but it is a real evil object.

The Cup of Negativity is a far higher existence than the Cup of Heaven created by modern magicians.

Changing the rules of the Holy Grail War was a piece of cake for a monster like Rod.

So, in order to fully enjoy the Holy Grail War, the monster decided to put some constraints on himself.

That is to make himself a servant and let Morgan play the role of the false master.

“…Haaa, haaa.”

Looking at the Master who was trampling on the rules at will, cold sweat oozed from Morgan's fair forehead.

It's still just a young beast, but it already possesses such power! ?

"Okay, done. You okay, caster?"

Rhodes' words awakened Morgan, whose brain was in a trance and whose thinking was stagnant due to the surge of magic power into his body.

"...No, it's okay."

She pulled her hand away from the boy's and took a half step back in embarrassment.

Staring at the Command Seal that was transferred from the back of the young Master's hand to her own body, the witch's beautiful mouth twisted slightly.

Okay, I understand the principle, but why isn’t the transfer location of the Command Seal the back of the hand...?

Because it is the Tokyo Holy Grail system.

Morgan said coldly, "Please ask for my opinion before doing this next time, master."

"Okay, next time, definitely next time."

"..."

Looking at the young Master's frivolous expression, she pursed her lips and turned her face away.

I wanted to be angry but had no way to vent it, and finally I realized that my cheeks were inexplicably hot.

I'm really...not good at dealing with this kid.

"I'm going to get some fresh air, Master. Just standing here makes me extremely uncomfortable."

"understood."

The sound of high heels echoed in the corridor of the Matou family's house, gradually fading away and finally disappearing.

Suddenly, Morgan added in his mind using spiritual language: "The reason why I am unhappy is not because of you, but the insect stench in this basement is too strong."

"Don't stress it, I understand."

Chapter 014 Small talk

The blazing fire dyed the night sky orange tonight.

The Matou residence, which had stood there for over a hundred years, was returning to dust.

Just like the evil holy city of Sodom, which was on fire because of the sin of adultery.

Needless to say, the arsonist was naturally Rod, who had done all kinds of bad things in the Matou family.

In his hand, he also held a thick stack of land ownership certificates from the Matou family that he had looted, and he became rich overnight.

Morgan stood in the night, his blue pupils staring coldly at the luxurious villa that was gradually being destroyed in the flames.

By the way, Morgan is in the same situation as Altria in the original work. Since they are not dead, they cannot become spirits.

"Why would you do such a thing? It's impossible for such a big noise to go unnoticed by other magicians participating in the ceremony."

It was not an accusation or an admonition, she was just simply curious.

Even for a woman like Morgan who had exhausted all mysteries and knowledge, Beast's thoughts were a completely unknown imaginary realm.

"I was very impressed by this scene when I played the game before, so I've been wanting to try it for a long time. Hmm...it's a really nice view."

Rhode asked Morgan in a rhetorical tone: "The last traces of the 800-year-old Zolgen family have also disappeared from this planet. Isn't it very sad?"

As a witch who has lived for more than 1500 years, Morgan should know something about the once famous Zorgen.

How does she feel about this?

"...Humph, it's better for bugs to die quickly."

Oh, Miss Witch doesn't seem to have any sad feelings about this.

"Let's go back."

After watching Yan Shang enough, Rhodes put his hands in his pockets and turned to walk towards the station.

"By the way, caster, have you ever played Red Dead Redemption 2?"

"No."

Nonsense, it is now 1994 in the Gregorian calendar.

"What a pity! The protagonist's name is quite interesting, isn't it?"

……

……

……

Morgan walked in the night wearing a magic robe that exposed a lot of white skin and winding curves. Her pair of round long legs with a creamy luster were faintly visible under her skirt.

What was particularly eye-catching was that on her exposed lower abdomen, there was a deep red " " carved in the center of several stigmata, but no one paid her any attention along the way.

I guess he used some magic to hinder other people's cognition.

Witch sister, if possible, could you teach me too?

I also want to learn hypnosis magic, but I will never use it in strange places!

After walking for half an hour, Rod and Morgan successfully boarded the night bus to Tokyo.

"Master, how much do you know about the participants in this Holy Grail War?"

Morgan asked as soon as he sat down on the soft seat of the bus.

She held her chin with one hand, crossed her slender white legs, and looked out the window at the scenery rapidly receding.

Her towering chest trembled slightly with the bumps of the bus, and her perfect round shape and slender waist formed a straight line, outlining countless seductive curves.

Looking at the caster beside him, Rhodes was somewhat moved.

I was touched that my servant was still working enthusiastically at 1 a.m.

He sorted out his thoughts in his mind for a while, then

"Sorry! I have no idea! I only know that the Master of the Tousaka family will probably, possibly, maybe be the patriarch of his family, hehe."

"……Is it."

Morgan pursed her beautiful lips: I believed your lies!

You bastard, are you pretending to be ignorant in front of me again?

"No, wait...I saw in a magic-related newspaper last month that El-Melloi from the Clock Tower's Minerals Department seemed to have announced that he would participate in the Fuyuki Holy Grail War."

Of course he made it up on the spot.

Even if the magic world really had academic journals like Nature and Science, they would only be published within the Clock Tower, and outsiders like Rhodes would never be able to see them.

After all, magic, unlike science, is essentially secretive.

Truth is only precious when it is in the hands of a few people.

As for why he didn't provide Caster with information about the participants, Rhode didn't want to conceal his identity as a time traveler, he just wanted to see her distressed and thoughtful expression.

"It doesn't matter what the outside magician is like. No matter how glorious his past is, it is impossible for an outsider to win the game against the organizer.

Well, but…"

Morgan glanced at the young master beside him with a joking expression: It would be a different story if I met a monster like you who was out of specification and had bad intentions.

She spoke slowly while looking at the night view of the highway outside the car window.

"The three founding families of the Holy Grail are Tousaka, Matou and Einzbern, right? The Matou family that built the Command Spell system has been annihilated by you tonight.

Of the remaining two, the Tousaka family is the manager of the Fuyuki leyline, and their role is to provide a battlefield for the Holy Grail War.

The last one, Einzbern, is the technical core for the reappearance of the Holy Grail.

If I am not mistaken, they will send the androids that are the prototypes of the Holy Grail to the land of Fuyuki, naturally for the purpose of absorbing the souls of the defeated heroes and achieving the Greater Holy Grail."

Rhode blinked and tapped his palm as if he had suddenly realized something. "I see! In other words, the Master of Einzbern is the Vessel of the Holy Grail!"

Morgan glanced at him and said unhappily.

"How is it possible? It's just a homunculus, not a beast. How can it contain the soul of a servant without any side effects?

The doll made into the Holy Grail will gradually lose its human characteristics as the battle progresses and the number of heroes' souls absorbed increases, and finally become an inhuman object.

How can one perform the Master's duties and fight in that state? Will Einzbern help others?

If it were me, I would prepare puppets of the Servant Master's magician and the Holy Grail vessel for the ceremony."

"Is that so? From what you said, it seems to be the case."

Rhode clapped his hands gently. "Amazing! You are worthy of being a caster! Please teach me hypnotic magic!"

Morgan pursed his lips slightly. "I don't know what this has to do with hypnotic magic."

Although he knew that his Master was pretending to be ignorant, Morgan still somewhat enjoyed the feeling of being flattered.
