Matou Sakura looked at Roland blankly and carefully moved his head so that he could lie on her body in a more comfortable position.
She didn't understand what happened to Roland, but since the other party gave her an order to wait, Matou Sakura would obey.
The logic of thinking about things, doubting, and making your own decisions has been gradually abandoned in Matou Zangyan's education.
However, this cannot all be attributed to Grandpa, after all, Sakura is an abandoned child.
-No one needs me.
This is the biggest feeling Matou Sakura has had in the past year. Before she was sent to Matou's house, her father sternly told her that she was not allowed to call herself Tosaka. In order to avoid suspicion, even if she met her sister and mother, she would not You can get closer.
Because she is from the Matou family.
After arriving at Matou's house, the cruel reality was quickly placed in front of her. Although Matou Zangyan promised not to torture her physically, she would do anything to her mentally.
He doesn't even need to make up any monsters, he just needs to show reality.
Matou Zangyan explained clearly the reasons why the Tohsaka family wanted to adopt her, and showed her her future in the Matou family.
And what would happen if she resisted.
No one would come to help her, whether it was her parents, sister, or anyone else. At that time, Matou Sakura felt that she was already standing on the edge of a cliff, and she would collapse completely if she was pushed.
And the person who gave her the final push was Matou Kariya, whom she had placed her hopes on before officially.
That man said he wanted to return her to Tohsaka?
Does he really know what he's going to say? The existence named Matou Sakura has come into contact with the secrets of the Matou family's magic. For the magician family, exploring the magic itself is tantamount to death.
This is a truth that even a child like her understands. The Tosaka family will not accept it at all and will send her back immediately. Even if not, she will not be able to live outside this city in the future and will be imprisoned by the Matou family. Monitor closely to prevent leaks.
Become a wandering soul with no future and no place to stay.
But she couldn't even say the words to refuse. This innocent kindness pushed Matou Sakura completely into the abyss.
That day, grandpa announced a fact to her.
The Matou family's magical education will stop her, and if Uncle Kariya wins, she will be free.
Finally, her last refuge was lost.
In the Matou family, Matou Sakura is a transparent person. No one dares to talk to her, no one will get close to her, and no one needs her.
Sakura, apart from this name, she has nothing.
At the beginning of the night, she would still resent her father for sending her away. Later, she began to resent why her sister was not the one chosen.
In the end, Matou Sakura began to numb herself.
She is not as strong as her sister, not as kind, and not as frank in character. Her nature is actually a bit of a bad child, but in order to get praise from her parents, she will remain well-behaved.
Recently, Matou Sakura even began to resent herself for not jumping into the insect cave. At least she could still have an identity that she could recognize herself, instead of not being needed by anyone like she is now.
Suddenly, grandpa said he wanted to send her out.
Being abandoned for the second time, finally, the last trace of her in the Matou family disappeared. However, thinking better, at least the other party gave her a last name that she could be called.
It doesn't matter anymore, no one needs Matou Sakura, it's nothing more than living a life as usual in a new environment, and then being given up again.
Until that dawn comes.
The strange young man said: "I need you."
Matou Sakura is something that belongs to him and will not be given to anyone.
Such a bad declaration made Matou Sakura tremble. She was finally needed, and she finally saw the hope of redemption.
Even if she faces danger or death, it is nothing compared to entering the insect cave. Even if it is just a simple use, being able to die as Roland's Sakura Matou is enough to satisfy her.
Matou Sakura leaned against Roland's body, and what her body felt and smelled was an extremely unfamiliar male scent.
When Roland first approached, her body still wanted to push him away reflexively. This was a child's instinct to be wary in a strange environment, but soon, her desire overcame this.
Since leaving the Tohsaka family, she has never had such close contact with anyone else.
"Lord Roland... is trembling?"
Because their bodies were so close together, Matou Sakura noticed something strange about Roland's body.
Even if he lost consciousness, his body still honestly reflected the drastic changes Roland was experiencing.
This is a miracle greater than magic, a spiritual sublimation.
Although she knew nothing about it, Matou Sakura still understood that Roland was now in a weak state.
She had obviously let the scary grandpa talk to her in a pleasant manner before, but now, seeing a trace of childishness and weakness on Roland's face, Matou Sakura realized that the other person was not as mature as he claimed to be.
But a person who is in a weak state and needs her care.
The huge contrast in impressions and the recognition of finding value, such a shocking impact, completely inspired Matou Sakura's nature and subverted all her past emotions.
Roland's waiting and approaching were all silent invitations to Matou Sakura.
Seeing Roland's current appearance, Matou Sakura's gratitude, awe, and slight fear all turned into a strange emotion.
——Want to take care of him.
"It turns out that Lord Roland also needs me."
Matou Sakura blushed, even if it was only a part of Roland's weight, her body still felt numb with her size, but she remained motionless.
She looked at Roland's face who was close at hand, stretched out her fingers, and gently fiddled with Roland's hair. Looking at her strange behavior, for some reason, Matou Sakura laughed softly.
"Lord Roland needs me."
This idea took root in Matou Sakura's mind, and her face glowed like a mother, filled with gentle protectiveness.
"Sakura?"
Roland slowly opened his eyes and woke up. His eyes were distracted as he looked at the gentle and beautiful face of the girl in front of him and the comfortable feeling coming from her hair. The back of his head was lying in Matou Sakura's arms. inside.
"I'm sorry, Master Roland, did I wake you up?"
"It doesn't matter, how long have I been unconscious?"
Roland's words interrupted Matou Sakura's apology. He realized what happened before, so he looked at Matou Sakura with some sincere emotions in his eyes. Although he didn't know what happened, Roland still I realized that the last barrier between me and Matou Sakura had disappeared.
Although he was confused as to how he achieved this strange increase in favorability, he had more important things to do now.
"cherry?"
Roland pushed his body up, but Sakura, who was very well-behaved, did not answer his answer immediately. Instead, she looked blankly and looked at her face.
"Ah," under Roland's call, Matou Sakura came back to her senses. As if confirming, she looked at Roland's face again before replying.
"Probably less than two minutes."
"Yeah?"
Roland showed a thoughtful expression, got up from the sofa, and walked to the mirror on the side of the living room. This was a half-height diorama left by the previous homeowner.
Then, he squinted his eyes slightly and looked inside.
Decent and unassuming clothing, pale and beautiful hands, as his eyes gradually moved upward, Roland could see his face clearly.
That is no longer his face, nor does it even belong to a human being, but a majestic and dignified dragon head with a mysterious and ancient aura, a noble and majestic dragon head.
The slightly darkened eyes were still burning with a blood-like, indifferent and coquettish light like a flame.
He was familiar with this appearance, because the bonded spirit hovering on the scabbard before was exactly the same.
Roland tilted his head slightly, and the devil with a dragon head and human body in the mirror was also reproduced perfectly. He touched his face. The touch was the same as before, without any change, but the image in the mirror was completely different.
This obvious fact made Roland understand that the power of the Holy Lord's Soul already belonged to him.
