"These things that mean nothing to you are the price you have to pay."

Chapter 120 The Cruel Farewell

"He'll be a great ally."

Watching Matou Kariya's figure disappear into the darkness, Paracelsus turned his head and said to Kazama who was standing side by side.

"Excellent words, master."

"this is nothing."

The wind shook his head.

"In fact, I cheated, because I knew exactly what the other party really wanted, so it was easy to reach a cooperation."

"Most people are driven forward by their own desires or ideals. It's like the prize of this ceremony, the omnipotent wishing device. To be selected by the Holy Grail, more or less have their own obsessions. Think You must use the Holy Grail to achieve your obsession."

"Although it is ironic... among the few people who participated in the Holy Grail War, the wishes of some people do not need miracles to be realized, and the Holy Grail is just icing on the cake. The wishes of some people do need miracles to be fulfilled, but A miracle just can't make this wish come true."

"It's such a bad thing... It's obviously named as a holy object of the Christian religion, but the process of obtaining it requires a baptism of desire, blood and hatred, and it's not as omnipotent as it claims on the surface. "

"Compared to being a sacred object, this cup is more like a bait made by demons and thrown into the vortex of chaos. It seduces countless people and gods, their dreams are broken, and they come to a tragic end."

"Caster, say something that sounds hypocritical."

Kazama looked at Paracelsus and said:

"Although the cause of this matter was my selfish desire, I was indeed arranging for Matou Kariya the best ending that could belong to him."

"Compared to being teased like a clown later, and being hated by childhood sweethearts, he completely collapsed. It's better to maintain the obsession in his heart that has made him persist until now."

"It is said that licking a dog is not a good death, but licking a dog has already done this. It is too cruel to make him die a bad death."

"Also, this might also be an opportunity for Kariya Matou."

Kazama muttered to himself.

"The story has changed so far, but if the fate of some guys is not intervened, the ending will not change much."

"Just like Tohsaka Tokiomi, his chaotic disciple and Jin Shining, who is full of evil tastes, as long as the two are still by Tohsaka Tokiomi's side, his fate is basically predictable."

"Of course it's not that things have improved. At least now Tosaka Tokiomi doesn't have to bear the blame that originally belonged to the 'world'."

"After Shichen's death, leaving behind the orphan and widow, if Jiantong Kariya can live up to it, he might have a chance to make up for the regrets he has had all along."

Paracelsus quietly listened to the soliloquy of his master.My miraculous master sometimes spit out some incomprehensible words, Paracelsus regarded it as a "prophet's eccentricity" for the time being, and now he is used to it a lot.

"Speaking of which, master, I have something to ask."

Paracelsus spoke suddenly.

"It's about Marchi Zorgen."

Before coming here today and meeting Kariya Matou, Kazama had already told the truth about the identity of Zouken Matou who had a karmic relationship with Paracelsus during this ceremony.

"To be honest, I didn't believe it at first. It's more difficult to accept than I can't believe it."

"It should be a happy and lucky thing to come to this strange era with the body of a heroic spirit and meet familiar friends."

"But when familiar friends become strange, even stranger than this strange era, everything is reversed."

Paracelsus was holding a strip-shaped black flesh worm in his hand.

The first impression of this bug is that it is hideous and disgusting.

This was pulled out by Paracelsus from Kariya Matou's body, and it originated from the core magic 'Engraved Bug' that the Matou family is proud of.

Matou Kariya's body was implanted with many engraved worms to replace the magic circuit, and the one in Paracelsus's hand was the core main worm.

If this kind of thing is not brought out, Matou Kariya will be manipulated by Matou Zouyan for the rest of his life, let alone take revenge on Matou Zouyan.

"The magic of Zorgen's house has changed a lot. If it weren't for the traces of the past at the core, I wouldn't be able to recognize it at all."

"Master, do you know that the insect magic of Zorgen's family is indeed very famous, but when it was performed by Maqili 500 years ago, it was a very beautiful and amazing butterfly magic."

"Similarly, that Maqili Zorgen is also a respectable person with great ideals."

"but now..."

Even the core of the magic has shifted, and one can imagine what the master of this magic has become.

"Maybe it's because this world is always cruel to idealists..."

The wind said:

"Idealists will always go to the end, either because their ideals are directly shattered, or because they have been unable to realize their ideals for a long time, and unknowingly go astray in the midst of frustration."

"There are very few who can truly hold on to their ideals and go to the end smoothly."

"Time is the best medicine and the worst poison."

"The lofty ambitions I once had have been distorted in the passage of time and turned into aliens. Whether it is the appearance, the soul, or the ambition."

"I hate the decaying soul and decaying body, but I don't want to die without accomplishing anything. Over time, it turns into such a twisted obsession."

"You're right. So, I also think that it's better to be free like this than hold such a distorted obsession and finally die without realizing it. This may be the best ending for Maqili." Paracelsus spoke.

Because the things to be done are related to Paracelsus, Kazama explained the whole plan to Paracelsus from the very beginning.

Compared with Kariya Matou, Kazama values ​​his own servants more, the opinion of this private model teacher.

After knowing the whole story, Paracelsus chose to acquiesce to Kazama's thoughts.

"But I still want to see him."

"That's my request."

Paracelsus said what he wanted to do.

Kazama froze for a moment, then shook his head:

"My teacher, you are really cruel..."

Die like this with twisted obsessions.

Before dying, looking back at the past, and finally realizing the process of disillusionment of one's own ideals and dying.

The latter process is not so much redemption as cruel send-off.

"Cruel?"

Paracelsus smiled wryly.

"Maybe I'm just such a hypocrite..."

Chapter 120 Berserker, kill him

The residence of the Matou family is located in the east center of Fuyuki City, and it is a western-style house.In Fuyuki City, where infrastructure is constantly changing, this house can be regarded as an old building that has gone through hundreds of years.

The Matou family is considered a well-known family in the local area, and they have great influence in both the business and political circles-on the surface it seems so.

In fact, in the mysterious side world that is opposite to the surface world and inaccessible to ordinary people, the Matou family is undoubtedly a famous family of magic.

Under the seemingly ordinary Western-style buildings, there is a hidden world.

This is a huge palace-like space built underground.

Cold and damp are the hallmarks here.

In the dark corners, I could still hear the rustling, the sound of some kind of creature crawling.

An old man is now standing in the middle of the underground palace.He was dressed in a kimono of ultramarine blue and dark gray, and carried a wooden walking stick.

He is bald on the top of his head, and there is not even a little hair on his entire head.The limbs are as thin as a mummy, the hale and hearty eyes are exposed in the deep-set eye sockets, and the hunchback is short. In short, he is a weird person with unusual appearance and behavior.

Compared to the luxurious rooms in the mansion on the surface, for Zouken Matou, this underground workshop called the insect storehouse made him feel more comfortable.

It is obvious that ordinary people will have difficulty breathing after staying here for a while, the breath exhaled by the insects is poisonous, and at the same time connects to the earth veins, the negative magic power of the source will corrode the vitality.What's more, what about the old man who seems to be dying and dying?

This is because Matou Zouken has long since abandoned his weak body. He turns himself into a worm and parasitizes others to prolong his life.

The Matou family seems to have been passed down for six generations, and the head of the family has been changed six times, but in fact, the position of the head of the family has never changed.

It wasn't until in this workshop that Matou Zouken could feel at ease in a daze.

That's right, just in a daze.

Having lived six times as long as normal human beings, there is no need to think about daily trivial matters, or in other words, this will only add burden to the soul and consciousness out of thin air.

After all, human beings are only ephemeral species, not born with unlimited lifespan like the true ancestors.Although there are various ways to prolong one's own existence, these methods often have more or less disadvantages.

It's like the bug magic I use.

Memory is consumed over a long period of time, and the soul gradually becomes stiff, which is unavoidable no matter what

Barring a miracle.

The immortality of the physical body which can only be obtained by a true miracle, or rather, that is the full consent of the soul and the body, the materialization of the soul.

This is also the only thing that Matou Zouken has been thinking about and paying attention to.

As for the other things, perhaps they did exist in the long-forgotten memories that had long been abandoned, but they were all in the extremely long past, and had long been forgotten by him.

Losing that important memory, the 300-year-old Matou Zouken might feel anxious.But now...

The existence of such things in the past is meaningless, the only meaningful thing is to live, only to continue to live.

His existence has long been filled with the cup of miracles that he has been seeking for so long.

.................

Matou Zouken is not just in a daze, there are still things worth thinking about right now.

For example, his Matou family is also one of the participants in the ceremony being held in this city right now.

Last night, there was a banquet where the six riding spirits participated at the same time.

And the servants who participated in the battle on behalf of the Matou family also shined in this banquet.

He also felt a little surprised by the desperate effect of Kariya Matou.Maybe it's time for him to change his view of Matou Kariya a little bit.This cowardly person who gave up his own way of magic is still worthy of praise.

But then Berserker's madness made him withdraw the idea.

"Trash is just trash after all..."

Recalling what happened last night, he couldn't help shaking his head.Through the engraving worm implanted in Matou Kariya's body, he could vaguely feel the host's pain and struggle.

Going past Berserker, Tokiri Zouken looked around the scene for a week through the familiar.
