Chapter 234 233. The First Night
Sakura had a dream. It was a carefree dream about living with her sister. She was so immersed in it that she didn't want to wake up. When she thought about the days in the worm pit, her body couldn't stop shaking.
Roll appeared in front of the worm pit, jumped in front of her and pulled her out of the worm pit. The next moment, Sakura opened her eyes, the sunlight hit her face, she felt a little painful, so painful that tears came out.
She didn't dare cry, didn't dare open her mouth, didn't dare ask for help. If she cried, the bugs would gather madly around her eyes just to eat her tears. If she opened her mouth, she would swallow a large number of bugs. If she asked for help, she would stay in the bug pit longer.
Very early on, she didn't dare to resist, and treated Zouken Matou as her grandfather and forgot her original home. She was not Tousaka Sakura, but Matou Sakura.
This was not a luxurious and cold room, but was filled with warmth. There seemed to be no bugs in her body. She could not feel the pain from the crawling of the bugs. She immediately closed her eyes. If this was a dream, then please don't wake up, let her live in the dream forever.
No matter how long she stayed awake, the sunlight was still warm. Thinking that she had to follow the schedule of the Sakumatou family, she immediately got up.
This was an unfamiliar room, with home dresses lying next to it, and after changing into her clothes, Sakura began her adventure, wandering around the house.
Soon, she saw a man in a cloak arranging something in the courtyard. He slowly backed away and quietly left. He came to an empty room where there was a table with food on it. In the kitchen not far away, someone was cooking.
She would never forget that figure. He was the last person she saw before she fell asleep, the man who picked her up and took her away from the insect pit. She forgot her fear for a moment and just stood there staring at him blankly.
"Awake?" Luo Er's tone was very gentle.
Feeling his concern, Sakura nodded slightly, then said in a trembling voice: "Where's Grandpa?"
"He sold you to me and asked you to listen to me from now on." Luo Er replied with a smile.
"Oh." Sakura listened. She was originally sent away by her biological father. She was an unwanted child, so she was not surprised to hear the news. Moreover, in the Matou family, she developed a character that required her to be obedient. If she was disobedient, she might have to stay in the insect pit longer, and she didn't want that.
"Call me brother from now on." Luo Er knew this very well, so he said so. After all, it is very difficult to make a person who has been thoroughly trained open his heart immediately. It would be more effective to just move forward with Zouken Matou who might still be lingering on.
"Okay, brother." Sakura was still a little timid.
"Wash your hands and eat." Luo Er shouted to the courtyard.
Medea still wore her hood under the eaves, but judging by her movements, she could not wait any longer.
Sakura stood on the side, and it seemed that she would only dare to go to the table to eat if she was ordered to do so.
Luo Er packed up and sat at the table, and said to Sakura very seriously: "Sakura, since Matou Zouken chose to sell you to me, from now on, you are my sister and you must follow the rules here."
"Okay, brother." Sakura grabbed the hem of her skirt and had already accepted her fate. After all, she was an unwanted child.
"The rules in my house are very simple. First, break off your past with the Matou family and never go back there again. Second, after washing up, eat at the table by yourself and don't be restrained. Third, if you violate the above two points, I will teach you a lesson."
"Yes, brother." Sakura was very obedient, but also felt surprised. It seemed that there were only two conditions. She was very obedient in the Matou family, for fear of doing something wrong.
"Okay, you're a good and obedient sister. Let's eat now. You can't leave until you're full." After saying that, Luo Er started eating by himself.
Medea didn't say anything, but just started eating silently, while Sakura ate very obediently. This was so much more delicious than what she had eaten before, it was almost incomparable.
After breakfast, Sakura took the initiative to take over the chore of washing dishes. She moved a small stool and washed the dishes diligently.
During the day, Luo Er was reading. He had taken a week off. After all, it would be a waste of time to go to work when there was no Holy Grail War going on.
Medea was perfecting her magic workshop. The magic power provided by Roll was almost unlimited, and she could perform many of her magic spells.
Sakura didn't know what to do. She knew where her room was, but it was not convenient for her to go back and sleep now, so she had to stay by Luo's side and read with him.
goo~
The growling stomach startled Rawl into waking up. Sakura lowered her head in embarrassment, fearing that she would be scolded.
"Are you hungry? Wait a minute." Luo Er stood up.
"I'm not hungry." Sakura said quickly, not daring to bother Rawl at all.
"This little girl is too insecure." Luo Er shook his head helplessly, and then said seriously: "Xiaoying, sit where you are and wait."
"Okay, brother." Sakura knelt there, looking at Roll's busy back, feeling a little at a loss.
Sakura didn't have to wait long. Roll simply made some fried rice with egg. Although it didn't glow golden, the taste was undoubtedly good.
He placed a bowl of fried rice in front of Sakura: "Eat it, and give it to me if you can't finish it."
Sakura picked up the spoon and tried to put it directly into her mouth, but Luo Er stopped her: "Blow on it a little, it's still very hot."
"Oh, okay, brother." Sakura blew it quickly and then put it in her mouth, her mouth full of fragrance. It was not until then that she realized that she was far away from the Matou family, far away from that hopeless place.
Unconsciously, she ate her food faster. She was not full at breakfast, so she finished the whole bowl of food. After finishing it, Sakura still felt a little unsatisfied.
Looking at the empty bowl in front of her, Sakura quickly apologized: "Brother, I'm sorry, I've finished eating."
"It's okay. Eat more if you're hungry. Just be my sister and act as you please." Luo Er patted her little head.
Sakura was stunned. The last time she acted like a spoiled child was when she was acting like a spoiled child to her mother. Now, when she heard these words, liquid began to secrete from the corners of her eyes.
She didn't dare to cry at all in the Matou family, for fear that insects would eat her face. But now, when she cried again, she started to hold back her tears when she thought of that scene.
Roll stretched his legs and placed a cushion next to him, "Sakura, lie down."
Sakura didn't think much about it, but just followed Raw's order and lay down on the cushion, with her head resting on Raw's lap. His home clothes were not disgusting, but very comfortable.
Luo Er covered her with a thick coat and said, "Go to sleep."
Sakura subconsciously closed her eyes. Maybe it was because she was next to Luo Er, she fell asleep quickly. This time, she had a good dream. She dreamed that Luo Er doted on her very much.
Luo Er is still sitting here reading. As a teacher, he often reads books to enrich his knowledge and prepare lessons for future teaching.
Sakura slept very soundly. Fortunately, the cushion was high enough, otherwise it would have been very uncomfortable. The little girl didn't wake up until the afternoon.
Sakura, in a daze, confirmed that she was lying on Rawl and felt very warm, and then she tried to sit up.
"Lie down for a while." Luo Er stroked her hair, very domineering.
Sakura silently felt Rawl's warmth. His words were domineering, but his hands were gentle, which made her feel at ease.
Luo Er knew that it would take a while for Sakura to trust him, so he had to command her as her new master and influence her.
This requires patience, but once successful, I'm afraid this little girl will be very attached to him. After a while of tenderness, Sakura was too embarrassed to lie down again, so she sat up slowly, and Luo went to the kitchen and started to prepare dinner for the three of them.
Feeling that Medea was still outside making arrangements and seeing Sakura's appearance, he no longer hated this kind of life. He had felt a little lonely before.
At dinner, the three of them sat at the table to eat again. Medea was very curious about this man, both his strength and her deeds.
"Medea, place some familiars tonight, mainly to these places." After eating, Raw called for Medea to stop, then took out a map of Fuyuki City and placed it on the table.
Sakura cleaned up the dishes very obediently, and then carried a small stool to wash them by herself. She liked her current life very much.
"Okay, Master." Medea did not hesitate. Ever since she followed Rawl to visit the Matou family, she knew that she had a great chance of winning this Holy Grail War.
She currently plans to make two preparations: one is to assist him in winning the war, and the other is betrayal. Medea does not want to carry out the second option unless it is absolutely necessary.
At night, the familiar quietly set off, while Rawl coaxed Sakura to sleep. He currently needed to confirm one thing: where had the news of his elimination of Matou spread, and whether the plot had changed. If so, he needed to deal with it first.
So tonight, he planned to do nothing and wait for the information confirmed by these familiars. After confirming that Sakura was asleep, Roll left the room and looked at Medea who was still busy: "Thank you for your hard work, Medea."
"This is what I should do, Master." Medea responded very naturally, but from her tone, it can be heard that she is no longer so wary of him.
"Have a good rest and let Berserker watch over you." After saying that, Rawl went back to his room to rest.
Medea bit her lip and looked at his back. He spoke sincerely and didn't care at all whether she had any ulterior motives.
The next morning, Luo Er got up and stretched. He felt that he should find a woman just like in other worlds. Living alone was really monotonous and boring before, but Medea and Sakura moved in and added some color to the life.
"Master."
"How is the result?"
"Assassin has been killed. He was a powerful guy." Medea checked the information sent back by the familiar. At the same time, she had some doubts in her heart. Rawl asked her to get the familiar as close as possible yesterday.
Given his strength, he would have discovered it long ago. Why did he let her familiar leave? Was he declaring his invincibility? Or was Assassin just so reckless?
"Let the familiars go to the church and watch, and be bold and exposed."
"Is there a master there? How did he know?" Medea became curious, but did not delay and immediately sent a few familiars there.
After confirming the information from the first night, Rawl had a general understanding. First of all, the Matou family did not reveal his arrival and even eliminated a servant in advance.
Luo Er didn't care who was hiding something. After all, it was good for him. On the first night, Jin Shanshan acted normally and revealed a little bit of his strength.
Others will choose to wait and see. At the same time, Assassin's return to darkness will be beneficial to his assassination. Although it was soon exposed in the original work, it is currently enough to make other masters wary.
"Master, what are you going to do?" Medea was very curious about Rawl's choice.
"I'll take you out to see the world tonight, and bring Berserker with you." Rawl said with a smile.
"Okay, Master." Medea was speechless. Take her to see the world?
at the same time.
"Teacher, a Servant has set his sights on the church." Kotomine Kirei spoke after receiving the information.
"A familiar?"
"Well, the other party didn't hide it."
"It seems that you are doubting yesterday's test." Tōsaka Tokiomi said softly, not caring about it.
"Teacher, do we need to kill those familiars?"
"No need. The other party is just suspicious and not sure yet. That's enough." Toosaka Tokiomi shook his head.
"Teacher, I have some information here."
"Hmm? What information?" Toosaka Tokiomi looked at his favorite disciple.
"The Matou family is already planning to sell their property." Kotomine Kirei's words instantly made the man lose his composure, and Kotomine Kirei revealed an imperceptible smile.
"The Matou family is selling their property? Didn't Matou participate in this Holy Grail War?" Toosaka Tokiomi thought of his daughter who was sent to the Matou family. Did he let his daughter go to a family that was going to sell their property?
But he couldn't take back what he had said, so he could only find an opportunity to confirm his daughter's condition.
at the same time.
"Has Assassin been killed?"
"It's good to have one less opponent. No matter what, they will be conquered by me." The King of Conquerors laughed.
"Anyone who can kill Assassin instantly must be very powerful and should not be underestimated," Weber reminded.
"Haha, I'm the King of Conquerors. Mountains are meant to be conquered." The King of Conquerors didn't care at all.
The Rolls family.
The three of them were resting at this time. Medea felt very relaxed, which was the first time. Sakura sat quietly aside basking in the sun, her eyes unconsciously glancing at Roll.
Luo was sitting in the yard reading a book diligently. When he was bored, he would flip through one book after another. At the same time, he became more and more interested in the meeting tonight.
The three of them were people who could kill time on their own. Sakura stared at Roll's face in a daze, while Medea closed her eyes and rested. This continued until the evening, and the three of them would come to the living room tacitly again.
Luo Er cooks, Medea takes care of the food, and Sakura is responsible for washing the dishes after the meal. The division of labor is clear.
After telling Sakura to sleep at home, Rawl took the two servants and left home. His home is currently very safe, and even the servants would not choose to break in.
After all, although Caster is weak, it is obviously an unwise choice to choose to fight hard when he is well prepared.
"Master, there will be an action tonight." Medea has found the information of all the servants based on the locations provided by Rawl, which also shocked her.
"Well, next I will take Berserker with me, and you stay away from the battlefield and help me confirm the situation around me. If anyone attacks by surprise, kill them directly." Rawl didn't waste any words. He didn't care about his righteous companions. Anyone who got in his way was an enemy.
"Yes." Medea handed the Berserker to Roll without hesitation, then hid herself but followed him all the time.
"I don't know if Saber can take it away. Speaking of androids, the school clone is very interesting. Unfortunately, the conditions here are limited." Raw shook his head helplessly and walked towards the target location.
