The magical power of the talisman is restrained and can only be used passively. Even if the dragon talisman has the effect of increasing energy, it is impossible to exert such power based on the output of the master. Are all foreign magicians monsters?
Matō Zōyan couldn't believe it. After being hit one after another, even with his mentality like an old tortoise, he felt upset.
"After gaining strength, are you going to break your original promise? You didn't show up at the battle at the port yesterday..."
"Although it's a body made of bugs, it won't really kill your brain, right?"
Roland's face was cold and his eyes were full of malice.
"Our original alliance was only to give priority to dealing with Darnic, nothing more. Moreover, you knew that my servant was a caster, but you asked me to participate in that kind of hand-to-hand combat. You are the one with bad intentions, and you still try to deal with it. It seems that I need to reconsider the covenant between us."
"...It's the old man Meng Lang."
After understanding the inequality of strength, Matou Zouken was silent for a while, and then quickly returned to his previous amiable attitude.
"As for the spoils of war, since the Matou family didn't keep them, I shouldn't have extravagant expectations."
Matou Zangyan first admitted his mistake sincerely, and then changed the subject.
"But that talisman has been with me for sixty years. It is very important to me. If possible, I would like to exchange it with you."
"Sixty years?" Roland's tone changed and he did not directly answer Matou Zangyan's request. "In other words, this is what you got from the last Holy Grail War."
"That's right," this was the biggest secret in his heart, but considering that everything was in the hands of others, Matou Zangyan hesitated and told part of the truth.
"And not only Old Man, but Darnik also has one in his hand."
Roland fell into a speechless silence. Compared with emotions such as shock, he felt a natural feeling in his heart. After all, there were too many opponents in this world line, but if it was caused by a spell, it would be natural. .
"You must have felt the power of the spell, but I want to tell you a surprising secret."
Matou Zangyan deliberately lowered his voice and pretended to be mysterious.
"The current state of this talisman is not activated at all. Don't you look forward to seeing this talisman in its full glory?"
"looking forward to……"
Do you need you to tell me the heyday of the talisman? Luo Lan stared blankly and casually treated Matou Zangyan.
At this time, Matou Zangyan spoke again.
"Although it is a merciless request, the value of this charm to you must not be that high? Is there any chance that I can exchange it for it?"
"Well, okay." Roland narrowed his eyes slightly and raised the corners of his mouth, as if he had discovered something interesting.
"Then what do you want?"
"It doesn't matter what I want, Matou Zouken, make no mistake, it's you who begged me, right? So, you should think about it, what do you have?"
Roland acted like a lion with his mouth open, but since he had to ask for help, Matou Zangyan could only grit his teeth and ask for the price.
"The old man can give everything to the Matou family. Although it seems to be in ruins, as the person in charge of the second largest spiritual place in Fuyuki City and a famous family, plus the classics and props such as magic inheritance, this will be quite big. A piece of wealth, as the true head of the Matong family for hundreds of years, as long as you are willing, these properties can be transferred to your name today."
Matou Zangyan reported a considerable number, which made Roland's eyes light up slightly and he nodded, indicating that he accepted the condition.
"Not enough, continue."
"I can hand over Berserker to you. The Master of the Matou family has always been under my control. If you are willing, I can let him transfer the contract on his own initiative."
"Ah, this is unnecessary," Roland yawned, "Don't you know yet? I met that guy this morning and solved it easily. Now, Matou Kariya is no longer the Master."
"As expected, that good-for-nothing has failed in success and failed in everything." Even though his own situation was not that good, when he heard about Kariya's situation, Matou Zangyan still had a weird smile on his lips.
"You said you want to save Sakura? Hehe, he obviously has the soul of Matou, but he still dares to say such nonsense. It's a pity that I didn't get to see what he looks like now. It will definitely be interesting."
"Indeed," Roland also expressed his approval, "it might surprise you."
"Hahaha--!"
The two of them laughed together like old friends reunited after a long separation. Then, Matou Zōyan's face darkened when he realized something was wrong.
Why should he be happy? Doesn't this mean that the biggest bargaining chip in his hand is gone?
This guy Roland! When allies are fighting, he paddles, and when allies are in trouble, he strikes. He is indeed a bastard recognized by the old man!
"No more? Am I still waiting?"
Hearing Roland's urging, Matou Zangyan's expression became even more distorted, and he racked his brains to think of what else he could come up with. Suddenly, he had a flash of inspiration.
"Now that Kariya has lost his identity as Master, what about berserker?"
"Of course it's in my hands."
"You actually took the initiative to collect Servants. Are you finally interested in the Holy Grail?"
"This moment, that moment."
Finally finding what he wanted, Matou Zangyan laughed happily.
"In this case, the last condition I can give is to hand over the Holy Grail to you."
"Just you?"
"Under normal circumstances, of course it is impossible." Matou Zangyan said confidently: "To reach the source, it takes the souls of seven followers. To realize the wish, it takes six."
"But this is only the most ideal situation. The level of the wish will also affect the demand for the Holy Grail. In fact, if it is just a personal wish, just the souls of four servants are more than enough."
Roland's smile faded, and the interest in his eyes became much higher. Seeing that the other party showed interest, Matou Zangyan quickly hit the snake with a stick.
"Of course, individual wishes may not be able to satisfy you, but it is not absolute. In the Holy Grail system, there is an existence called the Great Holy Grail. It is composed of the Grail of Heaven, which is the third magic. , use the cup of heaven to realize your wish, you can complete your personal salvation, become immortal and reach heaven in one step,
——And the old man has no talent, but he has a way to activate the Great Holy Grail. "
"Now you have two Servants in your hands. In other words, as long as you wait until the other two Servants die and take Einzbern's Little Holy Grail in advance, you can make a wish before everyone else and win."
"In this regard, I have a win-win proposal. I will do my best to help you win the Holy Grail. In exchange, when you make a wish, I hope you can take the Dragon Talisman with you and give it to you later."
"oh?"
Looking at Matou Zouken, who suddenly gained confidence and started to make offers, Roland raised his eyebrows and his eyes took on a strange color.
But Matou Zouken continued to speak, "Even if the pure and large amount of magic power of the Holy Grail is not used to make wishes, it is enough to do many things if it just overflows. Through it, the sleeping spell can be activated, and the magic power can be achieved. It was also because of this thought that Nick came to join the war again, which was also the old man's original wish."
"I wonder if such conditions would make you feel excited?"
Roland's deep laughter answered Matou Zangyan.
"Matou Zōyan, you are truly a talent."
After getting the affirmation, Matou Zangyan felt relieved, but this time, he couldn't be taken advantage of like the first time.
"Then, in order to avoid being thrown away and to reassure us all, I would like to ask for a self-imposed contract to prove this. It's not too much."
Why do you and Danik have the same brain circuit? No wonder they have been in love with each other for so long.
"Of course not too much, my dear ally."
Roland pondered for a while, and then readily agreed. This kind of deal said win-win on the surface, but was essentially a deal where he won twice. Who would refuse?
But seeing that Roland was so easy to talk to, Matou Zangyan felt a little uncomfortable. He drafted the contents of the contract, and when the other party reviewed the contents of the contract, he said uneasily again.
"I have even kept the talisman with you, and I have no desire for the Holy Grail. I only hope that you can keep your promise."
"Don't worry, Magician," Roland's voice became hoarse and demonic, "If you really bring me the Great Holy Grail, then you can naturally possess the power of the Dragon Talisman."
Roland signed the contract, raised the corner of his mouth, and said seriously and seriously: "I promise that this talisman will be returned to its original owner."
