Chapter 791 Divine Punishment (10,000-Word Chapter, Please Subscribe)

"Can I understand this as some kind of betrayal?"

Tōsaka Tokiomi crossed his hands in front of his chest, with an expression of surprise on his face, and a barely perceptible disgust flashed in his eyes.

As a very traditional and chauvinistic man, he obviously hates Sora, a foolish woman who betrayed her fiancé and whimsically planned to elope with a Servant.

You should know that in the eyes of orthodox magicians, a Servant is actually equivalent to a more advanced "familiar", that is, a tool with a certain intelligence driven by magic.

Yes, you read that right.

Don't think that Tōsaka Tokiomi really respects the oldest hero king just because he pretends to be a grandson in front of Gilgamesh.

Quite the contrary!

He did this just to better control the other party and make the other party act according to his own plan.

After defeating other masters and servants, this guy will definitely use the command seal to force Gilgamesh to commit suicide without hesitation, and then swallow the Holy Grail alone to achieve the ultimate goal of reaching the root.

As for the fact that Sora and Kenneth had no emotional foundation and were a marriage between magician families, which was not worth mentioning at all, it was nothing unusual for someone like Tohsaka Tokiomi who had received a decent education as a magician since childhood.

After all, the magic circle in this world was so small, and all the ancient families that had been passed down were doing their best to find an excellent "mother" to give birth to the next generation of heirs.

When he pursued his wife Aoi, he saw that she had the blood of the magic family Zenjo family, and that she still had excellent magic genes flowing in her body, and there was a high probability that she could give birth to the best offspring.

Facts have proved that his choice was right.

Both Rin and Sakura had the potential to become very good magicians.

This was also the premise that the two had always maintained a very good emotional foundation.

Otherwise, if they did not give birth to excellent offspring, what awaited Aoi might be indifference or even complete abandonment.

As for love, it was not important at all for magicians who were eager to pursue powerful power and the supreme truth.

Marriages like Sora and Kenneth, which had no emotional foundation and were simply for the purpose of giving birth to excellent offspring, were a common phenomenon in the magic world.

As long as they fulfill their mission, it doesn't matter whether they separate, divorce, or go their separate ways.

The same is true for Emiya Kiritsugu and Irisviel.

Although they have given birth to a common daughter, Illyasviel, the former still maintains a close relationship with his assistant and lover Hisau Maiya.

Irisviel is obviously aware of this, but she will not interfere.

This is the true portrayal of the typical marriage of a magician family.

So in the eyes of Tohsaka Tokiomi, Sora's behavior is simply a challenge to the tradition of the entire magic world. If it were his wife who dared to do such a rebellious act, he would definitely clean up the door without hesitation to protect the honor of the Tohsaka family from being tarnished.

But reason keeps reminding him that this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

Not only can he use Kenneth's power to deal with the most powerful Caster together, but he can also easily get rid of a strong competitor afterwards.

And the price he needs to pay is just to let Lancer and this stupid woman leave Fuyuki City, which is a big profit no matter how you look at it.

After all, summoning the Holy Grail does not require all seven Servants.

Especially with the existence of Irisviel von Einzbern, the "Vessel of the Holy Grail", five Servants should usually be enough.

"Betrayal?

No, I have never loved Kenneth, let alone the intention of concluding a marriage contract with him and having offspring.

All of this is just imposed on me by the family.

In this case, how can it be called betrayal?

I am just pursuing what I desire most in my heart, just like you men pursue the root.

As a woman, what's wrong with me pursuing my own love and happiness?"

Sora obviously didn't know that her image in the eyes of the other party was already as bad as it could be, and she still tried to defend herself.

But Tohsaka Tokiomi raised his hand to interrupt her: "Enough!

I am not interested in listening to your motives and reasons.

If you are really willing to give up the Holy Grail, let's sign a compulsory contract.

I promise you on the honor of the Tohsaka family that if you do as I say, you will get everything you want afterwards."

"Deal!"

Sora agreed without hesitation.

Because compared to the notorious "magician killer" Emiya Kiritsugu, Tousaka Tokiomi can definitely be regarded as a trustworthy person.

In this way, the two of them soon signed a secret contract without anyone knowing.

Immediately afterwards, Sora returned to Kenneth and informed her fiancé, Tousaka Tokiomi, who had been sold, that he agreed to the alliance request.

Poor Kenneth became the first Master to be eliminated by the internal appointment without knowing it.

If Kotomine Kirei is included, Tousaka Tokiomi's camp now has three Masters and three Servants.

Coupled with the secret support from the church, he quickly regained his confidence, calmness and elegance, and began to plan how to solve the biggest threat to ensure that he is the winner of the Fourth Holy Grail War.

As the first contest between the Master and the Servants came to an end, the entire Fuyuki City became completely quiet in less than an hour.

The church also quickly covered and repaired the dock warehouse area destroyed by little Annie's powerful magic, and then announced that it was hit by a meteorite from outer space and caused a severe thunderstorm.

Since there were no casualties, the people only lamented that the operators and owners of the warehouse docks might lose a lot of money.

After all, insurance companies usually do not pay for natural disasters that are beyond human control, and everyone has to bear the consequences themselves.

They had no idea that similar situations would continue to happen in the next period of time.

You have to know that this is the "peaceful" Fuyuki City. Before the Fourth Holy Grail War is completely over, things like "gas explosions" and "gas leaks" will happen frequently.

But in general, the probability of affecting ordinary people is not high.

Although many people have joked about the "Holy Grail War is carried out in secret", they think that the amazing destructive power generated by the release of the treasures by the Heroic Spirits does not seem to be related to the words "carried out in secret".

But in fact, most of the battles between servants take place at night near uninhabited areas.

Even guys like Emiya Kiritsugu, who would do anything to achieve their goals, when trying to kill Kenneth by blowing up a building, would first set off a fire to drive away the unrelated ordinary people.

So looking at the entire Fourth Holy Grail War, the most serious accident may be the wanton killing of innocent people by the duo of Uryu Ryunosuke and Gilles de Ray, and the fire caused by the destruction of the Holy Grail and the contaminated black mud flowing into the human world.

Fortunately, the former has been strangled in the cradle, and the rest of the participants basically understand the rules.

However, the residents of Fuyuki City cannot be careless for the time being.

Because once little Annie goes crazy, the casualties and destruction she causes will be much more terrifying than Gilles de Ray. If things go wrong, the city under her feet and even the entire island country will be wiped off the map.

This is not a joke!

As a quasi-divine power with the ability to kill true gods, she can truly shatter a planet, and even the two major restraining forces may not be able to stop it in time.

What's more, she is a planeswalker who ignited the spark.

As the saying goes, a thief can be a thief for a thousand days, but you can never be a thief for a thousand days.

If you really annoy this little devil, he will teleport here every now and then to give you a hard time.

Maybe it may not be a big deal for a planet with will, but it is definitely a disaster for humans living on the surface.

In a few times, the fragile modern civilization and ecological environment will collapse, and the human race will also be extinct.

Fortunately, due to the influence of Zuo Si, little Annie herself is not interested in killing, destruction and other behaviors. She is just curious and likes to play and play pranks like a child.

At the moment, she is sitting on a soft sofa, her two little feet wrapped in white stockings are suspended in the air and swinging back and forth. I don’t know where the shoes have been kicked to. In her hand, she is holding a plate with two half-eaten chocolate cakes on it.

Her innocent look made it hard for Matou Kariya, who was sitting next to her, to believe that this was Zeus, the king of gods in Greek mythology. Instead, she looked like a spoiled little girl, somewhat similar to the young Rin Tousaka.

If it weren't for the animated lightning that kept wandering around, I'm afraid anyone would regard her as a cute little angel.

"So your Servant is the famous Lake Knight, King Arthur's strongest Knight of the Round Table - Lancelot?"

Anastasia looked at the Berserker standing not far away with black smoke all over his body with great interest, and her eyes revealed unparalleled surprise.

Because no matter from which angle you look at it, Lancelot doesn't match the Berserker class.

Matou Kariya nodded without thinking: "Yes.

I also know that this is a bit unbelievable, but he is indeed Lancelot who descended as a Berserker.

Because he is a Berserker, this guy has no reason at all. He often extracts my magic power at all costs, causing my vitality to continue to drain.

Finally, he became what you saw before.

Please rest assured that although my servant does not have the means to give the enemy a fatal blow immediately, it can help you contain other servants, and then buy time for Caster to release the treasure.

And if I am not mistaken, Caster's true identity should be Zeus, the king of gods, who is known to everyone in this world, right?"

In order to show his sincerity and win the other party's pedestrians, Matou Kariya obviously spent a lot of money, and even said the real name and complete ability of his servant.

Zeus, the king of gods? !

Anastasia's face clearly flashed a look of surprise.

But when she recalled that Annie's previous posture of controlling lightning in battle seemed to be able to challenge Zeus, her eyes turned slightly and she immediately came up with a plan, pursed her lips and showed a reserved smile and replied: "Yes, my Caster is the God King Zeus."

Matou Kariya immediately showed an expression of as expected, and took the initiative to stand up and bow to Annie: "It is a great honor to be able to ally with you, the unrivaled great king of the Olympus gods."

"???????"

The girl's eyes suddenly widened and a series of question marks appeared on her head.

Zeus, King of the Olympian Gods?

Was he referring to me?

But my name is Annie, not Zeus?

Do I have another name?

Why did my father and mother never talk about it?

Also, what does King of the Gods mean?

Upon seeing this, Anastasia immediately realized that she was about to reveal her secret, and quickly winked at her master. At the same time, she put on a master's posture and reminded her in a very subtle way: "Caster, Mr. Kariya Matou is asking you. Say hello."

"Huh? Me? Ahhhh! Got it! That's right! I am Zeus, the King of Gods! Hahahaha!"

Little Annie finally realized it and jumped onto the sofa, grabbed the activated lightning and let out an exaggerated laugh.

Coupled with the black chocolate remaining at the corner of his mouth, the muscles on Matou Kariya's face immediately twitched.

Because this poor acting is so careless, anyone who is not a fool can see that there is something wrong with it.

He couldn't figure it out at all. If the opponent wasn't Zeus, the God King, which mythical god of thunder or hero who mastered the power of thunder and lightning would it be?

Fortunately, Matou Kariya did not struggle with this issue for too long.

After all, he doesn't need to know who this mysterious Caster is, he just needs to know that the other person is powerful enough to help him realize his wish.

As for the rest, he neither cared nor cared.

"well--"

Anastasia obviously realized that she was wrong, she held her forehead and sighed helplessly.

What could she do with such an immature little Master?

But fortunately, it was only the false "real name" that was exposed, not the biggest secret of the identity swap between the servant and the master.

Little Annie obviously noticed the reactions of the other two people, and immediately asked in a very uncertain tone: "Um...did I do something wrong?"

Anastasia smiled and shook her head: "No, you are doing a good job, please keep it up."

"Really? Then I will continue to eat cake. Call me when you need to fight."

After saying that, little Annie threw away the activated lightning and continued to compete with the dessert on the plate.

As a person who loves children very much, Matou Kariya does not dislike this unpretentious character, and there is even a faint smile on his face.

Because in little Annie, he seemed to see the carefree and happy appearance of the two Tohsaka sisters.

Especially Sakura, the smile on her face has almost disappeared since she was adopted into the Matou family, and she is so sensible that it's heartbreaking.

So after a brief moment of silence, he immediately asked: "Since we are allies now, can you do me a small favor first?"

"Please say."

Although Anastasia is currently dressed in a student uniform and black pantyhose, she still maintains the elegance and etiquette of a royal princess.

"Help me kill Matou Zouken and completely end the life of this rotten, dirty, degenerate guy."

Matou Kariya bluntly stated another strong wish in his heart.

The reason why he endured the torture of Matou Zouken before and did not choose to resist was firstly because he was not sure of victory, and secondly because he needed the other party's help to defeat the stronger Tosaka Tokiomi.

But it's different now.

Not only did he have a powerful ally, but his body, which had been severely overdrawn for a while, was restored to health.

This also means that there is no need for Matou Zouken to exist.

Continuing to let him live will only pose a huge threat to Sakura, and will also cause the entire family to continue to suffer the pain like a curse.

"Caster, what do you think?"

Anastasia left the decision directly to her Master.

"It doesn't matter, I don't really like bugs anyway."

Little Annie shrugged nonchalantly.

After hearing this, Anastasia immediately felt confident and asked directly: "When do you plan to take action?"

Kariya replied without thinking: "It is better to choose the day than to hit it.

I don't think that old guy would have thought that I would deal with him at such a sensitive time.

The most important thing is that the previous opening battle has made other masters afraid, and they should not take risks because of what happened to the Matou family.

Only by solving this hidden danger and ensuring Sakura's safety can I go all out to deal with Tokiomi and help you win the Holy Grail. "

"Okay! Then take advantage of the beautiful moonlight tonight to completely crush this dirty maggot hiding in the darkness and lingering."

With the last word blurted out, Anastasia suddenly stood up from the chair, covered with huge magic power that was beyond the reach of modern magicians.

You must know that although she is a modern heroic spirit with a low mysterious level, her magic power has reached an astonishing A++ level under the blessing of a powerful master named Little Annie. She is fully qualified to fight against the black mud erosion and pollution in the Fifth Holy Grail War. The black saber competes with each other.

Especially before she died, she successfully signed a contract with the elf of the Romanov dynasty, Wei, which gave the last princess a powerful "magic eye" and even created a weakness that distorted the law of cause and effect.

This also means that the magic workshop defense system that most magicians are proud of is useless to Anastasia.

Similarly, no matter how perfect the martial arts or no matter how powerful the Noble Phantasm is, there will be fatal flaws in the face of her magic eye.

So Anastasia is not a comprehensive Caster like Medea, but a Caster who tends to be a auxiliary type.

As long as there is a strong enough master or servant to cooperate, even a top heroic spirit like Gilgamesh can easily get "killed at first sight".

However, the reason why she was willing to help Matou Kariya was mainly related to the painful death method in which she and her family were tortured and killed.

When she heard that a little girl might be suffering inhuman torture and abuse, the princess of the last dynasty undoubtedly felt strong empathy.

…

On the other side, Zoyan, who was far away at Matou's house, had not yet realized that his life had entered the final countdown. He was admiring the little girl who was covered in bugs and kept screaming and pleading. His eyes revealed twisted and morbid satisfaction.

Because he has lived for too long, his humanity and ideals have long since disappeared, leaving only his strong obsession with "living" and his desire to become an immortal existence.

His only hobby is watching juniors like Kariya and Sakura struggling in pain and despair.

To a certain extent, this guy can no longer be called a "human", but closer to a monster, monster or something like that.

Obviously, he had no intention of fulfilling the agreement with Kariya from the beginning, and started to transform Sakura from the first day she was adopted.

It's just that it was relatively hidden at the beginning, and the pain wasn't very high.

However, as Matou Kariya's life force was drained out and he could die at any time, it was impossible to win the Holy Grail War. Zōyan was too lazy to even pretend, and planned to completely turn Sakura into a His own puppet, preparing for the next Holy Grail War.

"Ahhhh!!! No... don't! Uncle Kariya! Dad! Mom! Who can come and save me!"

The six-year-old girl's body was now covered with all kinds of creepy insects that were biting and eating her. She huddled up in a ball in despair and let out a weak cry.

After several hours of torture, the tears have long since dried up, and the voice has become extremely hoarse and difficult to distinguish.

You don't need to ask to know that this is why she became more and more autistic and disliked talking less and less after coming to Matou's house.

No matter who realizes that their future life will be dark and there will never be a little bit of light, their spirit and will will be quickly crushed, and they may even have the idea of ​​​​self-destruction and ending it all early.

Not to mention a little girl who is only six years old.

But in the face of this kind of scene, anyone who still has a little compassion can't help but feel pity. Zangyan just pursed his lips and commented with a smile: "It's not broken yet? It's really the blood of the Tohsaka family. Look. You can get a little more intense in the next stage.”

The words have not yet been spoken!

Suddenly there was a sound of footsteps approaching from far away from the passage connecting the basement behind him.

After a while, Matou Kariya, who was completely hidden under his hood, appeared at the entrance of the stairs.

"Hehehe, how does it feel to participate in the Holy Grail War for the first time?"

Zang Yan deliberately pretended to be enigmatic and didn't even bother to answer the question.

"Feelings? I don't feel anything, because things like the Holy Grail are not what I want at all."

Kariya raised his head slightly, revealing a pair of sharp and murderous eyes.

He had obviously seen Sakura's condition and the anger in his heart was like a volcano about to erupt.

"But that's what I want. Don't forget the agreement between us. Only if you bring the Holy Grail back, Sakura will be sent back to her mother and sister."

Zang Yan obviously thought that he still clung to Yan Ye's weakness and wanted to use it as a threat.

But what he didn't expect was that this time, Kariya didn't even say a word of nonsense, and walked straight towards the basement full of bugs. He directly summoned the servant and suddenly released his magic power with a wave of his hand to kill all the bugs on the girl. He died, and then he bent down and held him in his arms, tears streaming down his face uncontrollably.

"Yes...I'm sorry! It's all my fault for making you suffer."

"Uncle Yanye, save me...save me..."

The girl was obviously tortured to the point of being unconscious. Her two immature hands were holding on to the former's clothes and refused to let go. Her voice was so weak that she sounded like she might die at any time.

"Hey! What are you doing?"

Zang Yan was obviously angry at this disobedient behavior and shouted sharply.

In the past, Kariya might have argued with the other party, but now he just wanted to completely wipe out this dirty, dark, ugly scum from body to soul, and immediately gave the order to his servants Attack order.

"Berserker! Tear him apart!"

boom! ! ! ! !

The mad Lancelot immediately grabbed a supporting pillar without saying a word, turned it into a Noble Phantasm, and smashed it at Zang Yan.

Zang Yan obviously did not expect that this descendant who had always been regarded as a waste would have the courage to resist him. He quickly jumped to avoid the attack, and at the same time roared angrily: "Asshole! Do you know what you are doing?"

"Of course I know what I am doing. Old immortal, you have lived too long and even made the entire family bear a terrible curse. Now it is time to end it all."

After saying that, Kariya took off his hood, revealing a face that had completely restored health and vitality.

"How is this possible! How on earth did you do it?"

Zang Yan's eyes widened in disbelief.

Know that gaining eternal life has always been something he longed for.

But now this kind of thing that can only be achieved by relying on a miracle has actually come true for Kariya, who should have been on the verge of death!

Matou Kariya sneered and said sarcastically: "Humph! I have no obligation to explain to you what happened. What's more, you are going to die soon, so what if you know the truth?"

"Hahahaha! Stupid! Do you think you can kill me with just the pitiful bug magic you learned and a crazy servant?"

Zouken let out a contemptuous laugh while dodging Lancelot's attacks with incredible agility and reaction speed.

You must know that he is one of the three founders of the Holy Grail, and he created the command spell that binds the servants.

So this old guy has many means to control Servants, and even seize control of Servants from other Masters.

Just when Zouken was about to use the magic barrier in the basement to restrain Berserker, he suddenly found that Matou Kariya was already walking out of the basement with Sakura in his arms.

Before he could ask, Lancelot turned into a spirit and disappeared.

Such strange behavior undoubtedly made the old insect realize that something was wrong.

Just a second later, his keen sixth sense suddenly started to warn wildly for some reason, as if something terrible was about to happen.

At this moment, Matou Kariya suddenly stopped, turned his head and said meaningfully: "You know what?

In myths and legends around the world, the God of Thunder often shoulders the responsibility of punishing evil and promoting good.

They often inflict divine punishment on those heinous sinners so that justice and justice can be done.

Now you might as well prick up your ears and listen to the huge roar in the sky outside, and then take a good look back at your dirty, ugly, and sinful life. "

As the last word was blurted out, a loud rumble came from the basement passage leading outside.

At the same time, dazzling electric sparks began to flash in the surrounding air from time to time.

No matter how stupid he was at this moment, Zang Yan realized that Kariya had found a helper, and it was most likely a powerful servant. He wanted to escape from this dangerous place without saying a word.

This is also the reason why he did not participate in the Holy Grail War.

Although in his heyday, with his level of magic, he was able to keep up with most servants in a head-to-head confrontation, and even defeated them in one-on-one situations.

But as his strength continues to weaken, this old bug has greatly declined in strength. Coupled with its extreme fear of death, it is natural that he will not choose to take such a big risk.

What's more, the abilities and noble phantoms of servants are diverse, and God knows if he will be able to summon one that is very restrained.

Unfortunately, Matou Kariya rushed out of the basement first, then closed and locked the entrance door with his backhand.

"No!!!! How dare you! I am your ancestor!"

Zang Yan let out an impotent rage.

Because the door outside the basement was reinforced with magic, even if he wanted to destroy it, it would take some effort.

But now there is obviously no time.

I saw Matou Kariya directly making a gesture to little Annie floating in mid-air, and then the activated lightning became thicker and larger with the blessing of divine power, and then turned into a divine punishment that could destroy everything and fell from the sky.

boom! ! ! ! ! ! !

The entire Matou family and a large area around it were covered in dazzling white light, making it impossible to see anything clearly.

Matou Kariya himself could only retreat quickly under the protection of his servants, and he could vaguely hear the sound of scattered stones hitting the armor.

When the white light gradually dissipated, he finally saw clearly the huge pit in the basement that was struck by lightning, as well as the horrifying sight of half of Matou's house being severely damaged, and many houses catching fire and burning violently.

As for the dirty inkstone...

Now he has completely disappeared.

"finished?"

Matou Kariya looked at the deep pit on the ground with a look of relief on his face.

At this moment, Anastasia suddenly fell from the sky and stepped on a piece of soil that seemed to have fallen to the ground.

moment!

Hysterical howls erupted from the clod, while an ugly insect head emerged from the clod.

"This is?!"

Matou Kariya had obviously guessed the true identity of this insect, but he still showed strong shock and even hesitated to confirm it.

"He is Matou Zouken, the person you want to kill."

Anastasia gave a straightforward answer.

In front of her magic eyes, little tricks like hiding and escaping are of no use at all.

"So what has been controlling the Matou family all these years is actually a bug? We are all afraid of a bug? Hahahaha! This is so funny and so sad."

Kariya started laughing uncontrollably like crazy.

Then he raised his foot and stamped on Zang Yan's real body, completely ignoring the other party's pleas and trampling it into a puddle of flesh before he stopped and gasped for air.

"Kariya! Are you crazy? You actually brought outsiders to attack your own family!"

Accompanied by stern scoldings, the nominal head of the Matou family - Matou Tsuruno finally appeared.

Although his legs and hands were shaking uncontrollably, he still mustered up the courage to figure out what was going on.

"Crazy?

Maybe.

In this cursed family, it's easier said than done to not go crazy.

Dear brother, I have good news for you. That old monster Zong Yan is dead.

Now you and your son no longer have to worry about being thrown into a bug room to feed the bugs. "

Matou Kariya looked at his eldest brother with a slightly complicated expression.

Obviously, the relationship between the two brothers was not very good before.

To be sure, there had been a heated argument between them.

Because according to the magic qualifications, Kariya should have inherited the Matou family in this generation.

However, his willful departure resulted in Heye, who had long been abandoned and had no magic ability at all, being forcibly promoted to the position of head of the family.

Although taking over this position can earn a lot of money from the family business and live a life of drunkenness and dreams every day to anesthetize oneself, the mental pressure he endures is also considerable.

After all, not many normal people can maintain their psychological well-being after seeing Zang Yan's insect chamber.

"Is he dead? Really dead?"

He Ye obviously trembled a little, and his whole face flushed with excitement.

Kariya nodded slightly: "Yes. From now on, the Matou family will no longer be a magic family, and you no longer have to live in fear. You can run the family business well and become an ordinary rich man. As for Shinji, he There is no need to bear the pain of being eaten by those insects.”

"Thank you, you broke that terrible curse for all of us. I will liquidate the assets of the Matou family later, and then we will have half."

Heye obviously knew very well what Zangyan's death meant. He bent down and bowed deeply. He had no intention of monopolizing the family property, but instead offered to divide it equally.

But Kariya refused bluntly: "No, I don't want any inheritance from Zangyan. And if nothing else happens, this is the last time I come to Matou's house, and you probably won't see me again in the future. "

"Are you going to give up the name Matou?"

He Ye suddenly raised his head, revealing surprise that could not be concealed in his eyes.

"That's right. I'm going to go over and make a complete cut. From now on, I will no longer be a member of the Matou family. Because I have been reborn and have my own life goals."

After saying that, Kariya lowered his head and glanced at Sakura, who had fallen asleep due to excessive exhaustion. His face was full of heartache and pity.

Little Annie, who was following Anastasia, was obviously very interested in this "peer". She gently poked the girl's face with her finger, then pulled her little hand, and then a powerful healing spell came out. be displayed.

In a blink of an eye!

The areas on Sakura's body that had been bitten by insects were restored to their original appearance at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Even the fatigue was eliminated and he slowly opened his eyes.

"Hi!"

Little Annie, who was familiar with everyone, smiled and blinked.

"Hello...hello."

The girl was startled at first, then quickly responded with a shy voice.

It is easy to see from the deep fear in her eyes that she has not yet emerged from the shadow of being surrounded by countless bugs.

Fortunately, she has not completely fallen into despair, nor has she become numb and resigned, or even completely blackened.

"Want to play together?"

Little Annie took the initiative to extend the invitation.

Sakura, who had never had any opinions, subconsciously raised her head and looked at Kariya, the only person she was familiar with.

The latter put the girl down with a reluctant smile, touched her head and encouraged her: "Go ahead, don't be afraid, your uncle will never let you get hurt again."

"Um!"

Sakura obviously also saw the huge pit on the ground of the Matou family's house. She seemed to know what happened just now and nodded vigorously.

Just when she was about to say something, little Annie, who was already impatient, grabbed her and disappeared, so fast that Yan Ye had no time to react.

After about ten seconds, the man turned around and asked in an uncertain tone: "Is it okay to just let Caster run out like this?"

Anastasia replied nonchalantly: "What are you afraid of? Are you worried that other Masters will take the opportunity to attack? Or do you think some criminals dare to kidnap a powerful Servant?"

"Um - I mean they all look like kids, and they don't have any money on them at all."

Kariya smiled bitterly and expressed his worries.

"Who said she didn't bring money? My Caster can use magic to create banknotes anytime and anywhere. She can even buy this country if she wants."

When saying these words, Anastasia's tone revealed naked and undisguised pride.

"You...you actually made counterfeit coins?"

Kariya was stunned for a moment.

He originally thought that the pair's luxurious clothing and various high-end meals and snacks must be supported by a large family with a long history and strong financial resources, just like the Einzbern family.

But I never expected that I was doing a business without capital.

"What is counterfeit money!"

Anastasia immediately became unhappy when she heard the word.

“Counterfeit currency refers to banknotes that are of substandard quality that can be identified.

The paper money produced by Caster can never be found to have any flaws even if it passes through a money detector or a professional's inspection.

So strictly speaking, it is a currency that can be legally circulated. "

This perverse logic immediately confused Kariya.

Because he found that what the other party said was right.

As long as no one can detect the counterfeit money, isn't it real money?

Obviously, in this era when the Internet is far from popular and knowledge can only be obtained by reading a lot of professional books and going to school, unless they are related professionals, most people often don't have much knowledge about money and economy.

Kariya didn't understand at all that if little Annie's unrestrained and excessive issuance of money to satisfy her own selfish desires exceeded a certain limit, it would bring about a terrible hyperinflation and even a catastrophic economic crisis to the economy of the entire country.

Of course, little Annie herself didn't know.

She was simply following the rules set by her father, that is, if you want to get something from others, you have to give money.

As for whether the money is gold and silver, or a few colorful pieces of paper, in her eyes, there is no difference.

Anyway, as long as you have a thought, you can create a lot of...
