Chapter 27, Exploration and Discovery

The Matou family's mansion exudes a rustic atmosphere everywhere. While the whole house is very clean, the charm of time can be seen in every corner.

For example, the worn corners of candlesticks, or the patterns inside the carpet that were popular two or three centuries ago, all give people this feeling.

There is still enough time in Yagi Xuezai because there are no hostile reactions here.

I have heard that the head of the Matou family is an old monster that has lived for hundreds of years, but it seems that I have not encountered it this time.

Probably going out?

(Isn’t it time to go to the movies?)

Yagi Xuezhai thought humorously.

In fact, in a sense, he guessed right.

Matou Zouken is indeed [watching a movie].

On the top of the building less than three kilometers away from the Fuyuki Civic Center, I borrowed magic insects to improve my field of vision and happily watched the battle scene.

To be honest, the Matou family is a foreign magic family after all, and it is not in harmony with Japanese Feng Shui. Everyone knows that acclimatization can make people sick, but few people know that a lack of harmony in Feng Shui can also cause a family to become increasingly weak. This is mainly reflected in the following:

, among the heirs of the Matou family, magic circuits are becoming rarer and rarer each generation.

When it comes to Matou Kariya's generation, although he himself still has some magic circuits, his eldest brother has become so rare that he can almost be regarded as an ordinary person.

In addition, due to the excitement of something, Matou Kariya completely left home and ran to a big city. Matou Zangyan had given up on this Holy Grail War.

His goal is the next time, the Fifth Holy Grail War 60 years later.

Unexpectedly, Yan Ye came back again.

With his unique vision as a magician, he could tell at a glance that Matou Kariya was not the material to win and would definitely die. So...

At least provide yourself with some fun before you die!

With such a mood, he deliberately used imprinting insects on Matou Kariya that would bring a lot of pain, and also deliberately let him summon berserkers that consumed a lot of money, all in order to watch Matou Kariya wail in pain and crawl around.

It looks like rolling around for fun.

Movies, of course, must be watched from the nearest angle and immersed in the scene.

Today, Matou Kariya's fierce battle is the best snack for this old magician. He is now savoring the aftertaste of the battle, thinking in his mind what kind of stupid expression Matou Kariya should have now?

Seeing the berserker making such a fuss, even he was a little curious about what Matou Kariya would become.

Who knows, at this stall, Yagi has already broken through his mansion.

Who would have thought? There would be such a fool who just disarmed the alarm system and broke in despite the counterattack of defensive magic.

Yagi Xuezai finally found a study-like room in the house, but the books in it had no special meaning. They were just ordinary works from centuries past, including literary works, records and the like, magic-related

He had very few books. He finally found a genealogy of the Matou family, but he wasn't very interested and didn't even look through it.

(It seems that there are no valuable books. What about the basement? Is there a powerful magic gift hidden in it?)

In line with the tradition that thieves never steal... ah, no, in line with the tradition that the protagonist of an RPG game should rummage through boxes and cabinets, he began to search for the Matou family's treasures.

Although it is said that there is no way to bring anything back to Chaldea from the singularity, there are two exceptions.

One is something that does not belong to this era in the first place. For example, the Holy Grail thrown by Leif and Catherine.

The other kind is something that can be held with two hands.

Because of these two restrictions, it is almost impossible to purchase supplies from the singularity because it is too labor-intensive.

However, generally speaking, magic props are not particularly large, such as magic amulets, or necklaces and rings. If that doesn't work, wouldn't it be great to get a knife used in magic rituals?

With this thought in mind, Yagi Xuezhai walked all the way to the basement.

The further down I went, the more I felt a chill running down my spine.

I don’t know if it’s a problem with the temperament of the Matou family’s basement, or is it because the lower you go down, the lower the altitude and the lower the temperature? Then I don’t know.

Arriving in front of a rather grand door, Yagi said softly: Excuse me.

Open the door with both hands.

"...Although I don't want to make irresponsible remarks about the magic school...but it's a bit..."

Yagi just felt a little sick.

He deeply felt that he was lucky that he was not from the Matou family.

At the same time, I was glad that I came alone and did not bring girls like Black Jeanne, Fujimaru Ritsuka, or Mashu with me.

Otherwise there will definitely be a big problem.

What did he see?

To put it simply, it is a bug room. It is filled with round fleshy bugs, which look disgusting no matter how you look at them. The pale color glows greasy under the green light, giving people a scary and disgusting feeling.

Feelings, countless squirming...

Just thinking about it made Yagi almost vomit.

Although he's not afraid of bugs, there are still so many of them that it's a bit disgusting.

What he couldn't accept the most was that every one of these bugs clearly smelled of magic.

Perhaps this is the familiar of the Matou family, or is it a magical trait?

For example, the Tosaka family uses gem magic, which stores magic power in gems and radiates it, which is well-known throughout the magic world. I am afraid that the Matou family uses insects as the magic medium.

It's really disgusting.

Yagi Xuezhai was almost closed. Looking around, he found that there was nothing of value in this house. There were quite a few bugs with a huge amount of magic smell, but he was not crazy enough to eat them.

(Wait a minute? Ding Xiaowan seems to be able to ignore the material itself and forcibly make it into a dish? If she is asked to cook this... no, no, no, no, let's forget it. I feel like I can already hear her screams. By then Caleb

It would be bad if the dinner at the end of the day becomes [Braised Yagi Yuzuki]...)

Just as he was about to close the door and leave, suddenly, a roar came from the middle of the sea of ​​insects.

There was no chance of mishearing. Amidst the rustling sounds, the human voice seemed particularly clear.

Opening and closing his hand, the holy sword moved in his hand, releasing the strong wind, and the crazy wind pressure directly blew the insects away.

Sure enough, in the sea of ​​​​worms, an expressionless girl looked at the sky blankly, not knowing what she was thinking. Judging from her age, she was only seven or eight years old, Yagi Xuezai felt a chill in her heart...

"Looking at you, I guess it's broken."

The girl didn't respond. It was as if she couldn't see Yagi Yukisai at all.

Before [Grandpa] went out, he specifically told himself to stay in the insect room and wait for him to come back. Then he would just not move.

Who is that person? It doesn't matter at all.

"So...instead of living as a doll, let me end your life."

Yagi Xuezhai put the blade of the holy sword against her throat.

"Sorry...I...can't save you."
