Facing Roland's declaration, Matou Zangyan only felt a chill.

He recalled his words carefully. Didn't he say anything special? How did this guy realize that he is not a human being?

Is this guy broken?

Considering that with Roland's fighting power, he might blow up the Matou family if he went crazy, which was contrary to Matou Zangyan's style of hiding from others and planning behind his back.

Thinking of this, he pretended to cough a few times and let the young black-haired girl hiding behind the door come out.

"Your magic channel is ready," Matou Zouken said in a deep voice, "Although he is still very immature as a magician, it is still enough as a source of magic. Caster is a job that can collect magic by itself. Master's Office The magic provided is only to maintain their existence."

As if afraid that Roland would be dissatisfied, Matou Zouken described Matou Sakura's advantages in short words.

But Roland didn't pay attention to this at all. He first glanced at the young girl's hair color, and then paused for a moment on the young girl's hands unconsciously.

"This child's name is Matou Sakura, and she is adopted from the Tosaka family. She has not been implanted with old bugs, so you can rest assured. From now on, you can use her however you want. If she is still alive after the Holy Grail War, It can also be given to old people as waste."

After Matou Zangyan noticed Roland's gaze, he laughed full of viciousness and pleasure.

At this time, the sanction against Matou Kariya was also realized. After that guy was beaten to death, he found that his biggest goal had been handed over to others. It must be very interesting when that hypocritical appearance of justice was shattered.

"By the way, there is also your holy relic. Among the casters that I have, this is the best." Matou Zangyan handed a small box to Roland and continued, "If the war starts, I hope Don’t forget your promise to kill Darnik first.”

"The class chosen by the Matou family this time is Berserker. If it goes well, you can also provide a little help."

"I know, it's almost eleven o'clock, I have to go back and rest first."

Roland nodded and left the door of Matou's house without any unnecessary response. Matou Sakura, who had been instructed long ago, followed Roland obediently. It was clear that her hand had changed hands again, but her expression remained unchanged. It's such a big change, and it doesn't look like the mentality a six or seven-year-old girl should have.

Looking like a soulless doll, Roland subconsciously slowed down, and Matou Sakura also consciously slowed down, always keeping a close distance from Roland.

However, it is hard to imagine that this girl who looks very quiet and as cute as a doll has no fear at all about walking with strangers.

Is it because I have seen deeper horrors? Roland glanced at Matou Sakura's eyes. Different from the simple numbness caused by being accustomed to terror, Matou Sakura's eyes had a dead color. She clearly did not enter the insect den, and without physical pain, she was mentally exhausted. Is the injury worse?

But Roland had no intention of treating Matou Sakura, so he took the initiative and spoke in an unenthusiastic tone.

"Your name is Matou Sakura, right? I'm Roland."

Matou Sakura raised her head slightly and stared at Roland's back, her eyes still unmoved.

Roland didn't pay attention to the little girl's silence and continued.

"First of all, you need to understand that your grandfather has given you to me. You must be clear about your position. I will need your presence for a period of time in the future. I will not ask you anything beyond your ability. The scope requires it, but you can’t cause any trouble for me.”

"Finally," Roland turned his head and looked at Matou Sakura, "Although I don't think you will have such delusions, it is better to declare in advance that I will not let you leave, whether it is returning to Matou's house, or It’s better to go back to Tohsaka’s house.”

Logically speaking, Roland should say some magnanimous words at this time to give Matou Sakura psychological comfort, but he was unwilling to do so.

This magical channel was traded in the Holy Grail War at the risk of his life.

This is Roland's real contribution. He is not the instigator of Matou Sakura's tragic experience. Why should he feel guilty towards Matou Sakura?

"Well, I generally understand your situation. Sometimes I do feel some sympathy. As an adult, maybe I should say something right and promise you freedom after the Holy Grail War is over."

"But I don't want it."

Roland stared at Matou Sakura calmly, "I will never give anything that belongs to me to others unless I want to."

Ever since he was a child, perhaps because of his family experience, Roland has attached great importance to things that belong to him. The same applies when playing games. He would meaninglessly hoard a large number of things that he had no use at all and was unwilling to throw them away.

"——Perhaps, I still haven't been able to be the right adult."

Roland smiled mockingly and looked at Matou Sakura, "You must be aware of this, Miss Matou Sakura."

I don't know if it was because Roland's words were too out of line, Matou Sakura was stunned for a moment, and then, she faced Roland and showed a pleasing smile.

"Yes, Lord Roland, as long as you need me, I will never leave your side."

"Ah..." Perhaps because this answer was too mature, Roland tilted his head in confusion and looked at the little girl.

Compared to the distance of several meters just now, Matou Sakura is now following him like a little tail. Is this considered a closer relationship?

No matter what the situation was, whether it was Kirei or Ryuunosuke Ubu, both of them were like this. They suddenly became much closer. I didn’t say anything big, I just expressed my feelings.

Roland turned his head in confusion, stopped thinking about this problem, and continued to move forward.

After a while, he finally returned to his residence and waited for a while before taking Matou Sakura and sitting on the sofa obediently.

"The summoning of heroic spirits will begin next. Your grandfather told you what to do, right?"

After receiving a positive response, Roland nodded, "Before that, please wait for me for a while."

After getting the answer, he no longer plans to wait. Today, he will hold the shortcut to eternal peace of mind in his hands!

——The key to all spirits, give me the soul of the contracted Holy Lord.

After giving the order in his heart, Roland's face suddenly turned sickly pale, and the Key of All Spirits in his hand once again emitted silver light, slowly flowing into his body.

Suddenly, his senses were infinitely magnified, and his soul seemed to be entering deep space. His vision began to become blurry, and he was in a trance. Every time he blinked, he felt tired and sleepy.

"What a mistake. It's different from Kira Yoshikage's time. He is indeed a red bonded spirit..."

In the end, Roland lost consciousness, his body swayed twice, and he fell on Matong Ying's body.

"Lord Roland?"

Matou Sakura let out a small exclamation. She was about to reach out her hand to help Roland, but stopped.

Because, even though he hadn't woken up yet, Roland's eyelids were still slightly open. At this close range, Matou Sakura could clearly observe that his eyes were different from the previous dark and deep eyes.

——Now Roland's entire eye sockets have been replaced by scarlet light.

There was no dividing line between the whites of the eyes and the pupils, but a red, dark, chaotic light flickering like a breath, like a flickering flame.
