My neighbor is magical

scare.

The furnishings in the living room were either moved slightly, or completely changed places.There is a huge mercury ball in front of the bookcase, and it is extending its long tentacles to put the photobook that fell on the ground back on the shelf.

Someone behind him snapped his fingers.The quicksilver ball jumped up in response, and its round body walked around Kariya and out of the living room.Kenneth, who took back the moon spirit marrow liquid, explained briefly: "There was a little accident just now."

Kariya looked at him suspiciously: "'Little' accident? So, where's your uniform?"

Kenneth, who always wore the rigid family uniform, was standing there in only a white shirt.Hearing this, his face turned blue: "It was cut, so I can't wear it anymore."

An incredible guess popped up in Kariya's mind: Did the other party fight with Kotomine Kirei?

Being able to act under the absolute defense of the Moon Spirit Essence Liquid, the astonishing physical skill Kotomine Kirei should be able to do it.But how could these two people be in conflict?

"Cough," Kariya coughed covertly, "Kotomine-kun, he..."

"He's very good!" Kenneth's face completely darkened, "However, he still has self-knowledge, and he got out before I made a real move."

Looks like there was a real fight?Thinking of this, Kariya didn't dare to ask any more—he already knew that neither of them was injured: "By the way, Diarmuid is very worried, and seems to have something to say to you."

Kenneth sighed, "That idiot, shouldn't he be apologizing for what happened last night?"

"Oh? In other words, you lay there pretending to be asleep, waiting for the knight's kiss?"

"Shut up. Did you tease my servants like this when you just went out?"

"I'm really sorry, it was indeed a little bit of a joke. However, seeing that you all dare not cross the boundary between master and slave, I really can't help it."

"Ha! The descendants of the Archibalds are not afraid of anything. Just watch, the time has come for me to tell you the truth."

Even though he said such things, Kenneth just didn't want to lose the wind in the quarrel with Kariya.He would never do such a thing as a confession.

Kenneth, who was sitting on the sofa with a poker face, made Diarmuid, who had made up his mind, nervous.In this way, the two reached a relatively silent situation, and there is still a tendency to stalemate.

This scene is too stupid.Kenneth finally broke the silence in annoyance: "I admit, I was really dissatisfied when I summoned you. You have a face that is too troublesome, and even that guy Matou's servant is better than you. .but……"

Kenneth, who didn't know how to organize his words, stopped, which made Diarmuid feel that he was rejected.Kneeling on one knee in front of the lord, he said guiltily, "Master, I have failed your expectations, and I have insulted the name of a knight."

Kenneth's eyes widened in surprise: "What are you talking about, you." He lowered his voice, "I can feel your loyalty. The only follower I admit is you. However, to you, I am not Not an ideal host, is it?"

"Please don't say that," Diarmuid raised his head eagerly, "I just want to follow you. You are the master I believe. If it's not you, it's meaningless."

"Really," Kenneth said softly, and suddenly stretched out his hand to the servant who was still kneeling in front of him, "It seems that we have identified each other."

Diarmuid stretched out his hand hesitantly, and after confirming that there was no mistake, he tightly held his master's hand again.

The moment the slender fingers were held by him, the warmth of life was transmitted to Diarmuid's palm through the skin.

The knight and his lord finally felt the temperature that belonged to each other without any hindrance.

The dead heroic spirit seemed to hear the sound of his heart beating again.However, this time, it was because of incomparable joy.

[Seeing such a simple and beautiful thing, it would be a lie to say that I am not moved.

However, two people get along like a couple without realizing it, just like idiots. 】

31. My younger generation seems to be sick ([-])

it hurts.

Being bitten by countless insects with sharp teeth, the pain caused is enough to suffocate.No, even suffocating to death immediately is much better than suffering endlessly like this.

so dark.

Within the field of vision, there is a desperately thick darkness.Even the shiny ones are nothing but twisted, wriggling, greedy bugs.

want to get out of here.Outside, there must be light and warmth.

Supported by the only strong belief, Kariya dragged his broken body that seemed to no longer belong to him, and moved towards the exit of memory with difficulty.

Every time he moved, the deep bone-deep wound would bleed crazily, and the body was torn apart by severe pain seeping into the heart and lungs.But he gritted his teeth and stubbornly worked hard towards the exit of the cage.

In the boundless darkness, neither his friend nor the black knight who was following him could be seen.However, before he was completely exhausted, Kariya held out his hand to a high place with a glimmer of hope——

It would be great if someone could hold me back.Pull me out of this hell named Worm Warehouse.

The last bit of strength drained along with hope, and Kariya's hand dropped powerlessly as he whimpered softly.However, at this moment, someone tightly held his hand with interlocking fingers.That bony hand was as cold as the dying Kariya himself, but the sheer force it conveyed reassured Kariya.

Although he didn't know who it was, the other party was the only one who reached out to himself in the abyss.Thinking in this way, Kariya firmly grasped the opponent's hand with the remaining weak strength.

Someone sighed: "It looks like I'm having a nightmare. I'm really seriously ill." The man who said so transmitted a lot of magic power from the place where the two of them were in contact.

Gradually recovering his perception of the world around him, Kariya realized that he was lying on the bed, and the one who spoke was Kotomine Kirei.

what happened?I am sick?

"Master Matou must be in pain after being sick like this." Diarmuid's worried voice sounded, "However, it's great to have you by my side."

When the knight said this, Kariya, who was holding on to that hand, felt endless embarrassment.He moved, trying to pull his hand back.However, the body soaked in pain was so stiff that it couldn't be controlled at all.And the man who clasped his hands inexplicably increased his strength, not allowing Kariya to let go.

"Matou will fall, and I am partly responsible." Kenneth said in a rare heavy tone, and his usual arrogance was replaced by apology, "I didn't expect that the former defeated general would still hold a grudge against me, and he didn't Thinking that Matou, who just competed with me, will fight on my behalf and help me eliminate the enemy... Although I don’t know why Matou is in such pain, but he consumes a lot of mana for me. I can give him my mana, Anyway, since I have plenty of magic power, he will feel better."

Kariya, who was conscious, finally remembered what happened: he and Kenneth had a magic match.After that, a strange guy came to seek revenge on Kenneth, and he solved the magician himself.However, due to the consumption of too much mana, the engraving worm in his body, which was located in the heart, started to move again, and he was exhausted, and fell down the steps because of the sudden pain.

All the disasters happened at the same time, and it was really because of my low luck.Fortunately, Kenneth, who has always been super-abundant in magic, is willing to make up for himself.Kariya, who was thinking like this, suddenly heard Kirei's soft refusal—"No way, Mr. Archibald."

"What?" Kenneth raised his voice.

"Don't bother you, my magic power is enough."

"Huh? You're not Matou, why make decisions for him!" Kenneth was on the verge of getting angry.

"You are just his friend, please don't make decisions on your own." Kirei, who has always followed the rules, counterattacked uncharacteristically.

Kenneth sneered: "However, I was the one who met Matou first. Let's see if I defeat you! At that time, let's see if you still dare to speak big words."

Wait, there seems to be something wrong?

What happened to that "just a friend"?Closer than friends - there doesn't seem to be such a person around me?Could it be that he missed something because of his coma?

Kariya thought he heard something strange.But for him, the first priority is to avoid a duel between two people next to his hospital bed.He moved his fingers, rubbing the back of the man's hand with his slender fingertips: "Yanfeng-kun..." he called silently.

The atmosphere in the room changed again.Kenneth withdrew the magic power fluctuations that were too strong to be ignored, but let out a loud "hum" as if he was angry with someone.And the hand clasping his fingers also moved, evolving into a gesture of clasping his fingers.

"Kariya?" The man's low voice came from a seemingly very distant place, mixed with the deep concern that Kariya had never experienced before, from this cold and rigid man.

Didn't they always call each other by their surnames before?When did the distance between us become so close?

"In short, I will provide Kariya with magic power. He is used to me."

etc!Although I'm used to it, don't do it in front of others...

Kariya, who was powerless to speak, couldn't say what he wanted to say, and the man who had been replenishing his magic power these days also pressed his lips to block his slightly opened mouth.

Anyway, it's just replenishing magic, and Kenneth can definitely understand it.Kariya rejoiced that he was in a coma and would not be too embarrassing, while comforting himself.

In fact, Kenneth and Diarmuid are
