To be king and magician

He is the son of a pure-bred witch, after learning all the magic and spells from his mother, he blinded his mother's eyes and left her, and started killing people, making killing as a profession, because The methods are cruel, and it is difficult to live in the underground society.

[Wolf Man]——that's how Beryl is called in the clock tower.

In terms of combat power alone, Beryl is quite outstanding among magicians, but at this moment, if a magician sees him now, he will definitely not think of his terrible reputation in the clock tower and the underground world.

Because, the murderer known for his ferocity, now stood in the position of his former enemy.

"Haha...haha...Damn it, really damned...Where did such a ruthless woman come from..."

With no time to clean up the blood stains left behind him, the bruised Beryl staggered into the alley, slid with his back against the wall and sat on the ground weakly.

He was attacked 10 minutes ago.

Originally, as usual, he wanted to have a delicious breakfast after killing a few people in the unknown dark side of London, but on his way to the restaurant, a man appeared out of nowhere But the female magician suddenly attacked him.

He is a person with a bad relationship, and there are many enemies in the clock tower, Beryl knows this, so he only met an ordinary person seeking revenge at the beginning.

But soon he knew that he was wrong, and it was quite wrong--the female magician who attacked him was too strong to be a magician at all!

Beryl is still clear about the level of modern magicians, and he probably has a clue in his heart, but the female magician who attacked him is different, she is outrageously strong!

"Murphy Le John...a name I have never heard of before. Where did this old antique come from? Have I ever had a grudge against her? Or is it someone I killed before? Is it her acquaintance?"

"Neither of them."

Just as Beryl was thinking, at the entrance of the alley, a figure in a white robe blocked the incoming sunlight.

Holding a scepter, Morgan - aliased as Murphy Le John - stared at Beryl hidden in the shadows in the alley: "People who live on the dark side also subconsciously It’s because they are more familiar with the dark than the sun. That’s right, wolf boy.”

"But you are not very lucky. This alley is a dead end, and there is no manhole cover in front of you. You have walked into a dead end."

That's what he said, but Morgan also forced him here on purpose, without any particular reason, just wanting to play with this person who has some relationship with him.

Three weeks ago, Morgan, who originally lived near Glastonbury with her daughter, was visited by Mei Li after a long absence.At that time, Morgan was taken aback. The strongest house girl in human history was willing to run out of the apartment. At that time, she was still wondering if it was a dream.

And after the visit, Mei Li also stated her purpose very simply——Xia Chuanhu got a roster from Chaldea, and on it were some pre-selected by Maris Billy to cooperate with Xia Chuanhu to fight against human burns. magician.One of them, Xia Chuanhu, didn't like it very much, so I hope Morgan can clean it up.

Mordred is very enthusiastic about Meili's request. That girl is very obedient now, she doesn't look like a rebellious knight at all. Basically, as long as it is Arturia and Xia Chuanhu, she will listen 100%. Yes, not even her real mother.

But Morgan was a little curious about why Mei Li asked her to help deal with it. As an answer, Mei Li gave Morgan a memory-when she sneaked into Xia Chuanhu's dream to have a good relationship with him every day, Mei Li also glimpsed a part of [the root cause] Knowledge], which happens to have a piece of content about the so-called [British Lost Belt].

[After reading this memory, you should be able to understand why he came to ask you, so that's it, he's going home, don't tell the king that he came, this time it's his own initiative. 】

After Mei Li finished speaking, she left, and after that, after reading the obviously deleted memory, Morgan really knew why Mei Li came to ask her for help.

(The source of the tragedy in a certain sense...it's true that it doesn't matter if you just solve it like this, and it can also solve a problem for that child—well, let's just treat it like this for now.)

Thinking of this, Morgan pointed the scepter in his hand at the alley, and then he only needed one shot of the magic cannon, and Beryl would be wiped out along with the entire alley.

However, while smashing Morgan to condense his magic power——

"laugh--!"

Beryl, who had just stood up in the alley and wanted to make a final struggle, was suddenly pierced through his chest from behind, and a blade pierced through his heart without warning, and then cut his body The body was divided into two, and the two bodies fell to the ground one after another.

And behind Beryl, looking at the light green figure walking out from the depths of the alley, Morgan sighed with some regret: "I didn't expect to be snatched away by you. Is this the child's instruction? Guardian Miss Zer."

"No, it's just a personal judgment."

Using the magic dress to clean up the blood stained on his body, Souji Okita sheathed his sword: "Besides, it's better to deal with it this way, your magic will make a lot of noise, even if there is no man's land nearby, it may attract onlookers. "

"So, if you kill him like this, even if his body is completely decomposed, no one will find it, right?" Morgan said with a smile, "It's really thoughtful, as expected of a professional in the Shinsengumi .”

"..."

Not paying attention to the meaning of Morgan's words, Souji Okita stared at her, and then looked away after a long while: "Convey Ms. Mei Li's words—please do it if you want to do it, someone here will take care of you, If you don't do it, you will be the last one."

An inexplicable sentence.

But Morgan could understand why Mei Li asked Okita Souji to tell her this, and responded with a helpless smile: "Then you reply to her like this - I don't care what happens."

72. Group A, disbanded

A month after Beryl's death.

Antarctica, Chaldea.

Xia Chuanhu and Gray visited this polar observatory again.

After meeting with Romani and Matthew, and leaving Gray with Matthew to take care of her, Xia Chuanhu found Maris Billy alone.

"I haven't seen you for more than a month, Your Excellency Xia Chuan, how are you doing?"

In the area where the guests were entertained, Maris Billy warmly welcomed Xia Chuanhu.

"The little girl shouldn't have caused you any trouble, right? I see that in the letter she sent, there was something about the two encounters on the magic eye collection train."

"It's just that I met the ancestor of the Dead Apostle, and nothing particularly serious happened."

Xia Chuanhu said lightly.

Seeing his indifferent look, Maris Billy couldn't help sighing: "[Just]? Fuhailin Anaxiu, even the Animsfia family who lived in the mountains for a long time have heard of it. Weiming, in the end, in your eyes, it is just an existence that is not worth mentioning."

"I can't even say that. How should I put it...Because I have seen too many outrageous and unimaginable things, so in comparison, meeting an ancestor is not a particularly special thing."

Think carefully about Xia Chuanhu’s encounters in these years—earlier, there were beast larvae, the battle in Misaki City, and later, there was the Holy Grail War, and the rebirth of the world that happened in a parallel world...Which of these things is not true Something to impress?

In contrast, just meeting an ancestor can't really be said to be a particularly serious matter.

"Compared to this, Maris Billy, besides visiting Matthew, I have something to discuss with you. Look at this"

Xia Chuanhu suddenly took out a document from behind and put it on the table. Maris Billy picked it up and looked through it, and found that it was the list of master candidates that he had given Xia Chuanhu a month ago.

There is no change on the document, except for the traces of flipping through, it is just like brand new.

"Is there something wrong with this document?"

"It's not that there is a problem with this document, but about the 48 master candidates you want. I think... there is no need to select so many people."

"It's probably enough for me alone."

A person?

Maris Billy thought for a while: "His Excellency Xia Chuan means that you don't need us to prepare helpers for you in the process of performing human restoration, and you can solve it by yourself?"

"That's pretty much what it means."

Abandon all the original master candidates, and let myself, Gray and others solve the future problems - this is Xia Chuanhu's idea after struggling for a long time this month.

The situation of the 48 masters and other masters is not clear to Xia Chuantor, but for those in group A, and Fujimaru Tachika, Xia Chuantor has the idea of ​​not letting them participate, although it may be a bit subjective, But he thought it would be better for them.

At least, they can continue to live well in the pan-human history.

Kirshtalia, Ophelia, Yarou Miaorenji—except for the dead Beryl, Xia Chuanhu didn't want them to die in the belt of strange news one by one, and the human power burned It doesn't matter, whether it's freezing of human nature, as the holy sword user of the stars, he will do his best to solve it.

Of course, Xia Chuanhu thought he had the ability to save them all.Now that Beryl is dead, both Kirshtalia and Myorenji Yaro should be able to survive, and the giant of flame Surut himself will try his best to defeat them, even if there are other accidents, It's not a problem to have your own estimates.

However, this is only an ideal situation after all. Xia Chuanhu himself doesn’t know what will happen in reality. Maybe there will be a situation that he can’t deal with in time, causing them to die one after another. Instead of that, it’s better to disband A from the beginning. Group, all of them will be taken by him.

Anyway, that's what the Holy Sword Envoy of the Stars does.

Silently staring at Xia Chuanhu, Maris Billy opened his mouth after a while and said, "May I ask your reason? Your Excellency Xia Chuan, why do you want to take them all by yourself? I know you are powerful , but wouldn't this be too much? In case something happens to you..."

"I will not solve the problem alone, or I will be punished to kneel on the washboard when I go back." Xia Chuanhu smiled bitterly, "I will bring a few people I trust, such as Liya, such as Qingzi ...Compared to the magicians you selected, our side is undoubtedly more reliable, right?"

Indeed, if it is a magician, it is more reliable than any magician. With the relationship between the fifth magician and Xia Chuanhu, it is not likely that she will refuse to assist.

"Then your reason for doing this is...?"

But even so, Maris Billy was still puzzled, why did Xia Chuanhu do this?

After pondering for a while, Xia Chuanhu said: "Do you still remember what I told you before that I obtained the knowledge of the root?"

"I don't know if it's a coincidence or a coincidence. I have seen a few people on this list in the knowledge of the source, such as your beloved disciple, the son of the Wadham family-to put it bluntly, I am in my I witnessed their deaths from the knowledge I got, and it is a pity to think that they died like that, so now I want to avoid that future in my own way."

"Just treat it as my willful act."

Willful?

It is really a self-assessment that fits the actual situation.

It's just because of the knowledge I got that they don't think they are suitable for that kind of future, so I want to make changes now to change their future-Xia Chuanhu's behavior can indeed be called "willful".

Supporting his chin with both hands, Maris Billy fell into long thoughts, and then——

"It's probably impossible to revoke all of them."

"The establishment of Chaldea is inseparable from the support of the United Nations and the Magic Association. Even if it's just to reassure them, I can't entrust you with such an important job. Your Excellency Xia Chuan may not care, but for us, It is still necessary to negotiate with various forces and maintain trust."

"But what you said is also reasonable. The 48 people are indeed a little too many now-reducing to two, what do you think?"

three people?

Xia Chuanhu frowned: "Which two people?"

"One of them will be selected by you from this list, and the other person, I will start the selection of master candidates from all over the world, and then choose the person with the highest adaptability as the second person, how about it?"

One is pre-determined, and the other is self-selected?

"can."

73. Senior Kabanko, are you interested in saving the world?

Mustard chick—or, concubine Yu.

She is in a slightly unhappy mood now.

As an elf similar to the true ancestor, she hated humans very much and hated humans. Therefore, during the thousands of years of her existence, she has been avoiding and living in seclusion, constantly staying away from human gathering places.

But now, she has been found.

Although it is not that she has not been found before, but this time the person looking for her seems to be looking for her on purpose. Not only did she find out where she is, but she also used a shameless carpet search. It looked like he was trying to dig her out of the corner!

Yu Ji didn't understand, who would want to see [Mustard child] so much, her identity as an elf should not have been exposed.

But if she doesn't understand, she doesn't understand. The unhappiness in her heart is also real. If she can, she wants to blow up the person outside looking for her everywhere!

"But...what's the matter with that woman? Is there a radar in her mind?"

Hiding in a private house, Yu Ji peeped at the blond girl outside the door. Her name seemed to be [Sha Tiao]. For some reason, her search ability was extremely outrageous. find yourself.

In the past half a month, she fell into her hands more than a dozen times, and she almost caught her every time.

You must know that Yu Ji has been an expert in hiding for thousands of years. If she really wants to hide, even if she is tied up with hundreds of dogs, she will not be found, but the woman outside has a sharper nose than a dog. !It even forced her to escape into this human gathering area called [City]!
