The Villain Knight Doesn't Want to Be a Hero

But despite this, Fuyuki is indeed a good place.

Including Lin Qiao, they also think so.

"It smells so good..."

This was Lin Qiao's first impression of this place after taking the train to Fuyuki.

The rich spiritual power in the earth's veins not only makes this place a spiritual place, but also makes it a delicacy with its own condiments in someone's eyes, which is really attractive.

And the most important thing was that this kind of magic-rich planet was something he had never eaten before...

In a word, he just wants to take a few bites now to taste what the local specialties are like.

Fortunately, Lin Qiao had better self-control and had the illusory liquid to satisfy his craving. Otherwise, he would have to go to Yuanzang Mountain to eat some dirt.

However, although she had some interest in the magical land of Fuyuki, Lin Qiao did not forget the main purpose of her visit this time.

——The Matou family

Or to be more precise, Matou Zouken.

To be fair, Lin Qiao had no grudge against this guy who had lived for five hundred years.

But, you see, now that you are here, it doesn’t feel good if you don’t take anything with you, right?

What's more, the former Zolgen and current Matou families have a long history. They are considered to be quite ancient members in the entire magic world. They are also one of the three royal families that started the Holy Grail War.

If you can get it, even if the magic attributes don't match, you should be able to get something useful.

I've lived for five hundred years, so it's time for me to get some gold coins, right?

"Although that's true, it's not that easy..."

On the roof of a tall building, a group of blue-eyed pigeons were observing the luxurious bungalows in the distance.

After observing for a while, several pigeons almost simultaneously dissolved into a blue gel-like substance, fused together and condensed into a human form.

——In order not to arouse suspicion, Lin Qiao specially divided himself and mimicked it like this.

At the same time, just in case, he still left a clone to accompany Kiara in the hotel.

It had only been a few days since Lin Qiao came to Fuyuki City, and Lin Qiao had basically figured out the environment of the city, and also found the Matou family by the way.

From his perspective, although the area around the Matou family seemed peaceful, it was only on the surface.

Hidden under the peaceful surface are hundreds of demonic insects that monitor the surroundings.

——This does not mean that they are incapable of attack.

On the contrary, if an ordinary person really entered this place by mistake, he would probably be killed directly without being able to scream, and then be eaten to the bone within a few breaths...

Of course, these gadgets are fine for dealing with ordinary people and bad magicians.

But used to deal with him, even if the number is increased a hundred times, in Lin Qiao's eyes it is actually just that.

——The real problem lies with Matou Zangyan himself.

It can only be said that this guy is indeed an old man who has lived for five hundred years. At least in terms of survival, there are really few people in the world who can match him.

It can be said that if the brain worm that is this guy's main body is not killed, killing other worms will not help.

As for a knight's kick, it is not impossible to directly blast it and its surroundings into the sky.

But in that case, all the documentary records kept by the Matou family would disappear completely... and he would not be able to confirm whether a certain girl had been adopted by the Matou family.

He does not have the convenient ability to avoid injuries to his teammates.

"But I remember that after Matou Kariya returned to Fuyuki, although Sakura had been adopted into the Matou family, she didn't seem to be alive for a few days..."

It's a pity that the technology of this era is still a little behind compared to later generations.

Moreover, because of the national conditions, surveillance cameras are considered an invasion of privacy by people in this country, so they are only available in a few places.

Otherwise, checking the information would not be as troublesome as it is now.

However, judging from the flight information previously found, although Matou Kariya has already booked a flight back to Fuyuki in advance, it will only be a few days later...

In other words, is it possible that nothing has happened yet?

"It would be nice if that was the case."

He lowered his head and looked at the Shiwang Rabbit dial in his hand.

There is no doubt about the power contained in it, but the trouble is that at this stage, Lin Qiao cannot master the power at all...

Otherwise, he would have already had a vision of the future, so why bother?

After all, he now understands how Wang Tuqian felt when Zhuang Wu changed.

The kind where you clearly know that you are strong, but you just can't control it because your strength is too strong... His situation cannot be said to be exactly the same now, but it is similar.

Anyway, this is pretty bad.

But having said that, the ability to predict the future is temporarily unavailable, but Lin Qiao can vaguely feel something.

——This is probably some kind of time premonition ability.

To give a specific example, although you have completely forgotten your homework, you will feel inexplicably flustered when you go to school.

It was precisely for this reason that Lin Qiao chose to visit the Matong family today.

After all, this kind of thing feels... quite subtle.

I don't know when the sky turned completely dark.

Just when Lin Qiao couldn't help it and planned to kill the Matong family first, the door of the bungalow opened.

An elegant middle-aged man with a goatee and a red suit walked out.

——Tosaka Tokiomi.

The contemporary head of the Tohsaka family, one of the three imperial families, the manager of Fuyuki City's spiritual veins, the pot of this world... and the father of a girl who was sent here.

Because of the angle, Lin Qiao couldn't see his face.

After exchanging pleasantries with the dark blue-haired middle-aged man who followed him, he strode away with a pleased expression.

Chapter 553 I am your last hope

"The Matou family's magic is actually insect magic. Insects are both immortal and a symbol of life... Therefore, the type of insect is determined by the caster."

"What a dying person like Lao Chan can do is naturally those insects that are unpleasant and even disgusting in appearance."

"But if the target were Sakura's child, I think it would be an even more beautiful butterfly."

With such beautiful words, Matou Zangyan successfully dismissed Tokiomi Tosaka, and the latter obviously disliked him very much.

For magicians, family magic or secret techniques are basically equivalent to life. Therefore, in the world of magicians, spying on other people's magic is like declaring war.

And someone like Matou Zouken who was willing to reveal the secrets of family magic to him, even if it was only an insignificant part, could be considered a great sincerity.

.....At least that's the case from Tokiomi Tohsaka's point of view.

But what he didn't know was that shortly after he left the Matou family with the joy of finding a good place for his daughter.

The old man who had been chatting happily with him a few minutes ago, who looked like a skeleton but forced to pretend to be kind, revealed his true face.

"The Tohsaka boy is so young after all that he has forgotten that the essence of magic is deception."

But this is good, it saves a lot of effort.

A hoarse voice let out an unpleasant laugh.

For Matou Zouken, releasing a little bit of magic information about the Matou family is not a problem.

Anyway, Matou's bloodline has declined to what it is now, and each of his two sons is less useful than the other... In addition, his goal is to become immortal, so the family inheritance can almost be ignored.

And if we can use this to dispel Tokiomi Tosaka's suspicion and avoid the problems caused by that guy Kariya's snitching, it will be a huge profit.

It was almost the second that it was confirmed that Tohsaka Tokiomi was gone.

The old man, who was as skinny as a withered body, ignored the girl's cries of pain and dragged her to the bottom floor of the bungalow. There was a door that was so rusty that even if it was closed tightly, you could smell the smell of decay inside.

That is the most secret corner of the Matou family.

It is also the true embodiment of the Matou family’s magic.

In the huge square pit in the basement, densely packed insects of different types were wriggling around.

There are layers on top of each other inside, squirming on each other's bodies, and they are piled up to a height of several meters.

——Insect Barn.

Compared to the one above the ground, which was just for showing off to Tohsaka Tokiomi, this was the real training ground.

"Ah, no!"

The girl who had officially changed her name to Matou Sakura a few minutes ago screamed in horror at the first sight of what existed in the pit.

The hell-like scene in front of her made the girl, who had been enjoying the affection of her family not long ago, collapse to the ground.

"Okay, Sakura, now that you have become a member of the Matou family, related magic practices should be put on the agenda as soon as possible."

"Let's start from tonight~"

Matou Zouken, who no longer hid his true face, pulled Matou Sakura's hair and walked step by step towards the edge of the pit.

"After all, it is a rare seedbed. I will not kill you...but before that, you should adapt to it for a few days and experience Matou's magic."

Ignoring its pitiful cry, he threw it into the swarm of insects below.

The hoarse laughter and the pitiful cry of the girl, coupled with the squeaking sound of the dense swarm of insects moving against each other and rubbing their bodies, resounded in the dim insect warehouse.

"Um?"

Just when Matou Zangyan was about to leave the insect warehouse with slow steps, he couldn't help but stop.

Although the girl did scream out of fear...but it was different from the scream he expected from being tortured by the swarm of insects.

——The moment before she was about to fall into the insect pile, an unknown force held up the falling Matou Sakura.

At the same time, the swarm of insects that wanted to roll up was separated from it, like an invisible spherical barrier...

Despite this, the dense swarm of insects below still squirmed violently and rushed up, trying to break through the invisible wall of air in front of them and defile the girl who was left behind.

"Although I was well prepared before coming down, I have to admit that the actual scene was even more disgusting than I expected."

"!"

In the insect warehouse where no one else should be present, a third voice that did not belong to Matou Zouken and Matou Sakura sounded.

Sounds that seemed to be a mixture of dozens of different male and female voices appeared simultaneously, accompanied by the sound of footsteps colliding with the metal armor and the stone ground.

The spider is the original shape, wearing heavy armor with gold and red as the main colors, which looks gorgeous and wild.

"Oh, how rude. You should know that uninvited guests will not be welcomed by the host."

The old man with a withered body and a cane took a step forward.

"And Ying is my most precious granddaughter. Even her biological father has abandoned her and entrusted her to me. It's not the place for outsiders to comment on her specific actions, right?"

Looking at the figure in front of him, Matou Zouken's skull-like face couldn't help but reveal an ugly and twisted smile.

No, although it's a smile, in actual feeling, it's more like a demon.

Lin Qiao, who entered the insect warehouse through teleportation, looked at the human figure in front of him whose will and dreams were completely distorted by time, and could be called a withered skeleton, without a trace of emotion.

-That's why he didn't want Kiara to become a righteous partner.

There's nothing to say, and there's no need to say anything.

Lin Qiao raised a hand towards Matou Ying.

The next second, the girl who was protected by his telekinesis floated to his side.

The insects below seemed unwilling to let the object leave like this, and they entangled with each other, forming a disgusting giant hand, trying to pull it back.

However...

Snap!

Lin Qiao's five fingers suddenly clenched, and the insects entangled with each other seemed to be thrown into a hydraulic press.
