Abnormal month

"Well, I'll keep going."

Roy didn't even think and gave the answer without hesitation.

"No matter what, I have to realize my ideal. At this point, there is no turning back. I will never give up."

"I will never collapse before I accomplish my dream."

The young man still had a hint of childishness on his face, but his temperament was extremely calm.

His eyes sparkled with an indomitable gleam, as if going backwards wasn't an option on his menu in the first place.

"I understand, so I won't say anything more."

Aozaki Orange seemed to have anticipated his answer, and could only let out a long sigh.

"I wish I hadn't taught you magic before."

She lowered her eyebrows, making her expression unclear.

I don’t know what I regret in my words.

"Really? I'd like to thank you for teaching me magic."

Roy laughed, and a text appeared in the palm of his hand, swaying like a little man dancing.

"Especially this whole set of runes."

Very versatile and very easy to use.

Although it is not the original rune created by the Nordic god Odin, at this time, a complete set of runes is a mystery enough to make any magician family go crazy.

Aozaki Orange remained silent.

"Okay, let's not talk about these disappointing things. Cheng Zi, you have been out for so long this time. Did you encounter anything interesting?"

"This is not an ordinary amount. There is a lot of chaos in Guanfuzi City. It is said that a large number of cursed spirits have appeared in Tokyo City. The most amazing thing is that an artificial island suddenly appeared in the Pacific Ocean. Oh, this world is really extraordinary. Something is getting wrong.”

"What?! Artificial island?"

"Why are you having such a big reaction?"

"What's on it? There's no fourth true ancestor or anything like that, right?"

"I've wanted to ask you a long time ago. You always seem to know some weird things?"

"Is there any?"

"No, not even a vampire can be seen."

"That's good, no, maybe it's a bit of a pity..."

"But the devil seems to be very active. After I ran out of funds, I registered an exorcism company there."

"Really?"

Roy was delighted.

"Have you finally thought about saving money?"

"No, every time a demon appears, there is always a little-known company that steals the business from the Demon Exorcism Bureau at a very low price. I stayed there for a month and didn't make any money, so I left. ”

"..."

Aozaki Orange's days wandering outside were truly wonderful beyond imagination.

Especially now that the Xingyue world is getting more and more out of place, everywhere is full of new things that stir her heart.

"Master, I'm sorry, can you talk to me alone for a while?"

The golden light spots gathered together and transformed into a handsome young man in rich clothes.

It was Rider.

He materialized next to the two of them, interrupting their lively chat.

"Then let's talk."

Upon seeing this, Aozaki Orange shrugged his shoulders and left the corridor, although he was also very interested in Rider, leaving this space to Roy and Rider.

"Rider, you are back. How do you feel about this era?"

Roy patted the seat next to his butt and motioned for him to sit down together.

Rider was not polite, lifted the hem of his fine clothes, and sat cross-legged next to Roy.

"It's quite interesting, but when I think that such an interesting situation was achieved at the expense of more than six billion people around the world, to be honest, I can't laugh."

"As expected of you, you always care about the world."

"Haha, thank you Master for the compliment!"

Rider smiled heartily, and his fox-like eyes narrowed happily.

"Speaking of this, I actually have a question to ask the Master. This is why I want to talk to the Master alone."

"what is the problem?"

"I experienced a little bit of Master's past in my dream last night."

The smile on Rider's face faded a little, and the faded brows gave off a hint of unfathomable aura.

"Because it's not complete, I want to come back and confirm. Master, what is your purpose in participating in the Holy Grail War? In other words, what is your wish to be fulfilled through the Great Holy Grail?"

The atmosphere in the corridor froze for a moment.

The smile on Roy's face also disappeared.

He raised his hand to take off the glasses on his nose.

But when his fingers were placed on the frame, his movements suddenly stopped again.

"...Ah, no wonder, the spirit of the servant and the master are connected, no wonder."

Roy seemed to have given up, sighing melancholy, and then an indifferent smile appeared on his face, and the corners of his lips were raised like a hunting lion.

"Okay, I want to fulfill my wish and I need your help, so I'll tell you the truth."

"What exactly is my wish..."

Roy described his ideals and the reasons for forming them.

Rider was told everything without reservation.

The moment these words ended.

Rider's expression changed.

"Are you serious, Master?"

"Let's take a step back. Even if you really achieve your plan and win the Holy Grail War, the possibility of your wish coming true is shockingly low! Are you going to fight for such an unattainable wish?"

"How do you know if it works if you don't try?"

Roy smiled without changing his expression.

"I just want to know, Rider, are you willing to be my helper?"

Rider's expression kept changing.

On his face, you can see admiration, pity, and admiration for Roy.

"I want to apologize to you."

Rider stood up and knelt down beside Roy in a half-kneeling posture.

The frivolous look was gone, and instead a strong respect rose.

"It seems that my long training career has made my brain rusty, so that I doubted your personality just because I had a dream, so I came to test you. I apologize to you for this. This time I judged you by my own standards."

"I'm really a big shot to ask a god to apologize to me."

Roy smiled and didn't care.

It was his heavy breathing just now that really scared him.

He thought he apologized because he didn't recognize him as his master and wanted to leave. It was really scary.

"I, Rider - no, I, Taigong Wang, swear in the name of Yuanshi Tianzun's disciple that as long as my heroic spirit is still alive, I will definitely protect you until the last moment and do my best to help you fulfill your wish!"

Rider, the legendary military strategist of the Zhou Dynasty, Taigong Wang, also known as Jiang Shang, Jiang Ziya, made an oath in the name of the Supreme God of Taoism.

As a disciple of Yuanshi Tianzun and a member of the Taoist gods, Taigong Wang made this oath with a shocking degree of seriousness, which was enough to shock his senior brothers to the point of being speechless.

Because Roy's wish has such weight.
