Emerald eyes watched the father and daughter frolicking at the entrance of the forest through the castle windows.
The figure of the girl standing by the window. He looked weak and ethereal, as if he was far away from the world. Her soft, mesmerizing blonde hair was draped over her head, and her slender body was dressed in an old-fashioned gown. Although it was a perfect match for the appearance of a young lady from a boudoir, the aura she emitted made the air in the entire room tense just by standing there. It was solemn and cold.
It could be said that the cold atmosphere was more refreshing and pure like a stream than the coldness of ice. Her existence seemed to be out of place in the gloomy winter scenery of Ainsberm City.
"What are you looking at? Saber。”Alice shouted from behind. Saber, the girl by the window, turned around.
"Your daughter and Qiesi are playing in the forest outside.”
She seemed to be surprised and confused. Although she frowned slightly, it did not damage her beauty at all.
Compared to a charming smile, she was more suitable for a dignified and serious look. She was a rare beauty. This dignified presence. How could she make people believe that she was the materialized form of a heroic spirit?
But... She was the real Saber…one of the seven Heroic Spirits summoned by the Holy Grail, the Servant who occupied the throne of the strongest sword.
"That side of Qiesi surprised you, right?”Saber nodded honestly as he looked at the smiling Alisfel.
" To be honest, I thought Master was a cold and unreasonable person. I didn't expect…"
Alistair sighed softly." I understand Qiesi's wishes and pain. As his wife, all I can do is silently and unconditionally support him.”
"Even if Master falls into the abyss?”Her emerald eyes looked straight at the young woman in front of her, who looked more like a young girl.
"No regrets." Alisfell said with a smile.
Saber nodded." Maybe I don't get along well with Master, but for you, Alisfel, I'll risk my honor as a knight and bring back the Holy Grail."”
"Then please take care of me while I'm your Acting Master.”Alisfeldt smiled and extended her hand to Saber.
"I'm not honored." Saber held Alice's hand and leaned forward to kiss it gently. He was undoubtedly a perfect knight.
"Here, Eliya." Qiesi called out to his daughter, who was walking beside him. He squatted down and hugged the girl from behind.
"Daddy needs to leave for a while…Can Eliya wait? Until Daddy comes back, even Ji and Mo can endure it?”Qie Si suppressed the emotions in his heart and smiled at his daughter.
"Yes! Eliya would endure. I'll wait for Qiesi with Mommy.”
Looking at his daughter's pure smile, Qiesi suddenly felt that he was so dirty and ugly. Tears welled up in his eyes, but he could only tightly hug the small body in his arms.
I'm sorry... Eliya...
"Full, full, full. This time, it was five times. 0K？”
"Hey, kid, do you really think that demons exist?”Ryunosuke asked the trembling child, pretending to be thinking while tilting his head to look at him. Of course, he didn't expect the gagged child to answer his question. He just wanted the child to experience more fear.
The child trembled and moaned, and then Ryunosuke felt a hand on his shoulder. If it was a normal person, they would probably be scared half to death, right? Ryujisuke turned his head around excitedly. He didn't seem to be surprised by the sudden appearance of a person in the room.
"Let me ask you."
A voice rang out from behind him, and Ryunosuke's eyes were met with a face.
He had a very smooth and youthful face, large eyes that were moving agilely, and smooth cheeks. His brown face was a perfect match for his, and Ryujisuke couldn't help but think of Mengke's paintings.
His clothes were also very strange. His slender body was wearing a loose robe, and his clothes were decorated with a large number of luxurious precious metal jewelry. He looked like a Dark Magician from a comic.
" Summoner who begged me, called me, and made me appear in this world as a Caster…I am here to ask for your name. Who is that person over there?"
Ryunosuke scratched his head and mentally prepared himself.
"Yes, my name is Yu Sheng Ryuunosuke. Freelancer. He liked children and young girls.”
The man in the long robe nodded. It was as if he had turned a deaf ear to everything except the name.
"Very good. The contract was established. I also have a long-cherished wish to obtain the Holy Grail that you desire. The key to the paradise will definitely fall into our hands, right?”
"Er-what?"
Ryunosuke scratched his head. He didn't understand what this strange-looking old demon was talking about.
"By the way, do you want to eat?”Ryunosuke chuckled as he handed the trapped boy to Caster, as if he was looking forward to him putting on a show of eating a living person.
"Ah, mmm ~" The child who heard his fate struggled desperately, but he could not even let out a complete cry as he was tightly tied up.
Caster did not say anything. He was different from ordinary people. His sharp nails slowly approached the boy, causing him to cry out desperately. He rolled his body like a worm and leaned against the wall. When the palm approached, the boy could not help but be afraid. He suppressed his tears and closed his eyes in despair.
The sound of bandages being torn apart made the trembling little boy open his eyes. He looked at the tall figure, and as if he could feel the boy's gaze, Caster smiled and narrowed his eyes. Facing the child, he said gently,""Don't be afraid, little friend."
Caster's gentle appearance allowed the boy to find the only light in the darkness. He suppressed his sobs and stared at Caster nervously.
Caster gently removed the last piece of tape and asked,""Can you stand up?" The child nodded and stood up.
Caster gently supported the boy and pointed to the door beside him."Alright, child, you can leave this room through that door over there. Can you walk alone?”
Caster's gentleness gave this child, who regarded Caster as his hope, great confidence. He nodded and replied with an " okay." The child ran to the door, and Ryunosuke shouted in dissatisfaction,""Hey, I'll talk."
Caster stretched out his fingers to stop Ryunosuke from speaking. He raised his index finger to his lips and softly hissed, as if he was afraid of disturbing something.
He opened the door that had been closed for an unknown period of time. Light shone through the glass of the outer door into the boy's eyes. The surprise and fear of light and darkness, life and death gradually faded. The hope and beauty of survival filled the boy's heart. Tears of joy could not help but fall gently along the child's delicate face.
