127. Chapter 127: Death of Matou Zouken

  . Beowulf's sword blade was attached with red flame magic, forming a huge sword shadow, which completely enveloped Matou Zouken's body and smashed it to pieces.

Zouken Matou looks like a bald old man, and his true body is made up of countless Marking Bugs. However, under Beowulf's crushing attack, all the Marking Bugs in his body were crushed into minced meat, and then burned into ashes by Beowulf's explosion of fire magic!

"Ah! Ah!" Zouken Matou, who was burned by magic power, let out his last cry and turned into ashes, but he was not dead yet!

What died was only a part of his original Marking Worm, he still had spare Marking Worms hidden in a secret place.

When Matou Kariya saw that Matou Zouken's body was destroyed, he immediately rushed to the insect pit in the basement. Ignoring the restless swarm of insects with sharp teeth exposed, he wanted to rush into the insect pit to rescue Toosaka Sakura.

But Matou Kariya was stopped by Beowulf, who grabbed his shoulders and said, "Master, let me do it."

As he spoke, Beowulf's body was ablaze with red magic flames. The flames rushed into the insect pit like a tide, quickly clearing out a clean place to stay.

Beowulf walked into the center of the insect pit, picked up Sakura Toosaka who was lying on the ground with dazed eyes, and the flames on his body instantly spread to the entire basement, sweeping away all the engraved insects.

Beowulf covered Toosaka Sakura's entire body with magic power, causing her to wake up and open her mouth. Several crested insects flew out and were burned clean by the magic flames in mid-air.

"How are you? You're feeling better now. You're fine now." Beowulf helped Sakura Toosaka remove the crest worms from her body, and then he looked at the thin girl in front of him and comforted her softly.

Matou Kariya staggered to Beowulf, took over Tohsaka Sakura, and gently stroked Sakura's cheek, tears flowing uncontrollably, "Sakura, I succeeded, we are saved."

Beowulf reminded at the right time: "Master, this place is not safe yet. The breath of that insect still remains. I suggest you leave this place quickly."

"Thank you, Beowulf. To be honest, my only wish is to rescue Sakura. In return, I will do my best to win the Holy Grail for you." Matou Kariya hugged Sakura tightly and said firmly.

"You're welcome, Master. If I didn't take action in the face of such evil, I wouldn't be Beowulf!" Beowulf smiled heartily.

Matou Kiriya carried Sakura out of the Matou family's castle, and Beowulf jumped up and threw the enchanted sword in his hand at the Matou family. A huge magical shadow appeared and completely destroyed the Matou family's castle, and then the magical shadow ignited flames.

"Boom!" With a loud bang, the phantom exploded, and countless flames completely destroyed the remaining engraved insects in the castle.

Beowulf closed his eyes and sensed the situation, "Well, even if there is still some left, that bug won't live long."

Matou Kariya wants to go see Toosaka Aoi and entrust Toosaka Sakura to her, because his magic circuits have been transformed by the Crest Bugs and he only has a few months to live at most.

Beowulf had no objection, and he transformed into a spirit and disappeared into the air, following beside Matou Kariya.

On the other hand, while Chi Yao was recuperating thoroughly, he was also using the Thousand Faces Mask to disperse and collect intelligence. Ya Ya would also fly out a few times from time to time to see if there was any unusual movement in Fuyuki City.

"Bing! Bing!" Ya Ya flew back in a very hurried manner and bumped into Chi Yao's arms.

Translation: Something happened! The Matou family exploded!!

"! Ugh! Yaya, take it easy!" Chi Yao caught Yaya and said helplessly. Yaya's physical attributes were several points higher than his own due to the bonus of the passive Destiny Body Guard. This collision was not something he could withstand easily.

Chi Yao reacted and asked in surprise: "Huh? You said the Jiantong family exploded?"

"Hmm! Hmmmm!" Yaya nodded her head rapidly, indicating her confirmation.

Translation: Yes! They were all blown to ruins!

"Interesting, what kind of servant did the Matou family recruit? Is this a rebellion?" Chi Yao thought.

Suddenly, Chi Yao felt that this plot was a little familiar, and had an outrageous guess, "Wait, this development is so familiar, it shouldn't be a servant with the surname Bai, right?"

Chi Yao then rejected it and breathed a sigh of relief, "No, the time doesn't match. It should be that Matou Kariya summoned a servant and then betrayed us."

"Do you want to visit the Matou family?" Tamamonomae asked.

"Forget it. We probably won't be able to find any information. Besides, if we go there now, we'll easily expose ourselves," Chi Yao replied.

"Well, then our next preferred targets for alliance are Weber and Iskandar." Chi Yao decided on the next strategy and stood up to set off.

Tamamonomae, who was standing by, immediately handed over her coat and said, "Master, are we leaving now?"

"Yes, let's go and find someone to form an alliance with." Chi Yao nodded, took the coat and put it on.

Chi Yao straightened his appearance and looked at the mirror in front of him with a kind smile, "After all, we are going to form an alliance, so we should dress formally."

The masks that Chi Yao had spread out before had already seen the whereabouts of Weber and Iskandar. After all, Iskandar's figure was very conspicuous and he could be seen at a glance in the crowd.

With the intelligence information, Chi Yao's goal was quite clear, and he went directly to the family where Weber was staying.

Soon, Chi Yao arrived in front of a normal residential house in Fuyuki City, walked up politely, knocked on the door, and waited quietly.

"Ding Dong~Ding Dong~"

The doorbell rang clear and pleasantly, followed by footsteps, and the door was opened. The person who opened the door was an elderly man with gray hair and a kind face. He was Gulan McKinsey, who was given a temporary residence by Weber using hypnotic suggestion magic.

"Who are you? What's the matter?" Gulan looked at the handsome and smiling young man in front of him with some doubts.

"Excuse me, is Weber Velvet here?" Chi Yao raised his voice and used the element of wind to transmit the sound into the house to ensure that the people inside could hear it clearly.

As soon as he finished speaking, Waver opened the door and walked out, followed by the burly Iskandar.

Weber persuaded Grandpa Gulan to leave first, and kept a certain distance from Chi Yao. He stood in the house, looked at the strange young man in front of him, and asked, "Who are you? What do you want to see me for?"

"You can call me Huiyao." Chi Yao briefly introduced himself.

Chi Yao then showed a playful smile, "Your behavior is well-known in the magic world! You stole the mentor's holy relics and came to participate in the Holy Grail War privately."

"Did you know? Your mentor, Kenneth El-Melloi Archipelago, has come to Fuyuki City in person to participate in the Holy Grail War!"

"! You! Are you the one sent by Teacher Kenneth?" Weber panicked for a moment, took a few steps back cautiously, approached Iskandar, and then quickly calmed down.

"No, I have nothing to do with Kenneth. I just heard about the rumor and I'm a little interested." Chi Yao spread his hands to show that he had no ill intentions.

"Then what are you here for?" Weber thought of Iskandar's teachings and mustered up the courage to ask.

"Well, let's form an alliance to show our sincerity." Chi Yao raised his right hand, removed the cover on the back of his hand, revealing the three Command Spells underneath.
