[Comprehensive] Self-cultivation of the villain master

Even if Astra said so, it was impossible for Merlin to let him leave alone. After all, he was a temporary master. Since he was summoned as a servant, he should move his muscles occasionally.

Merlin used magic to hide his figure, and confirmed that Astra hadn't found him, so he chased after the opponent's pace. It was always too dark here, and even he couldn't guarantee that Astra would leave after the master left for a while. Can trace be found.

For the perception of magic power, Astra is far superior to other masters, and he will be aware of the spiritualization and the use of power to hide himself.

What kind of existence is the court magician? Astra can only know from some biographies. Since there are too many such books, each one has different explanations. With the changes of the times, different Less speculation about legends makes the already confusing truth even more unclear.

Therefore, even if he knew that Merlin was strong, he didn't dare to leave many things to the other party to judge.The unpredictable character and the inexplicable feeling make Astra choose Agas rather than limit this magician's servant.

At the beginning, Astra was extremely puzzled by Agas' dependence. His character determined that he could not rely on anyone, nor could he show weakness to anyone, but this situation did not apply to Agas.

The only thing that can be explained is that in his forgotten memory, there is a part related to this follower.Maybe he once summoned a servant, and that servant was also Agas, but he just forgot about it.

The deeper you go, the more worried Astra becomes.

Unlike the all-black where you can't see your fingers at first, the place where Astra stands now presents an eerie aesthetic.A broken white moon hangs in the sky, but a black moon is reflected in the opposite river.

There was no sound of wind, no shaking of branches and leaves, the entire space was still, and even the water in the river was dead silent.

"Eh--?"

A voice suddenly appeared in the ear, Astra looked around and saw a little girl in a white dress appearing a few meters away inappropriately.

The little girl moved her head closer and stared at Astra without blinking.

"It's really a strange human being, I can't see your dream."

"Are you... Noah?" Through the cross scar on the opponent's forehead, Astra finally understood the current situation. "what's the matter?"

"Huh?" Licking the lollipop in her mouth, the little girl curled her mouth. "I am the eldest son of Noah, Rhodes, my ability is the lamb of dreams."

"Astra, right?" Rhodes smiled, "For your gods, what kind of apostle are you? You are holy, but not that devout, or...all the exorcists Is it all like this?"

"How could I know this kind of thing." Astra sneered, "I don't care about gods or anything. I never fight for such illusory things."

"So, do you want to come to our place?"

Astra stared at the girl named Rhodes for a while, then suddenly laughed.

"what's so funny?"

"Even if I don't care about God, it doesn't mean that I will help others, Noah."

"It's been said for a long time that this kind of thing is impossible, Lord Rhodes." An umbrella in the shape of a pumpkin flew to Rhodes' side, making an extremely strange sound.

"Eh?"

Astra glanced at the strange pumpkin and asked, "If there's nothing else, that's it."

"Huh?" Rhode pushed away the pumpkin umbrella and said with a smirk, "Do you think I'll let you go like this, Astra?"

"I didn't say that." Astra said calmly, and asked back, "What's good for you by trapping me here? Is there a problem?"

Rhodes looked frustrated: "I'm just bored, looking for someone to play with."

The so-called play is to completely destroy people from the inside out. Anyone who knows this kind of play will definitely not be willing, but Astra is not afraid.

Without pointing out the deep meaning of Rhodes' words, Astra said disapprovingly: "You should also know that your ability is useless to me, and your companion's ability is useless to me, so continuing to confront is just a waste of time .”

"No, I just need to hold you back." Since he was in his own space, Rhode didn't worry about what would happen to the other party at all, and said confidently.

Ever since he knew that Tiqi had no way to deal with this exorcist, Rhodes planned to do it himself. What he didn't expect was that her ability would not be effective against this exorcist named Astra, so he could only use the last method—— -drag.

As for why such a human being is so important, Rhodes is still not clear, only knowing that he is quite taboo about the existence that cooperates with the Earl of the Millennium.

Knowing Noah's real purpose, Astra didn't show a look of shock, and snapped her fingers: "I need some time, so you can come and play with her."

"Obey." Agas' figure appeared behind Astra, and the weapon in his hand was already faintly visible.

Throwing Rhodes, the Noah, to Agas to solve, Astra started to destroy the space.He is good at the power of the space system, and he is no stranger to any space. It is only a matter of time before he leaves here. The key is that he needs to understand the composition of this space and destroy it from the middle point.

"Oh, you are the so-called follower?" As a Noah clan, Rhodes immediately saw through the essence of Agas, waved away the opponent's attack, and asked, "Just leave your master and fight with me like this okay?"

Agas calmly applied his strength to the weapon in his hand. Although he had black hair, he gave off an extremely warm feeling.

"The master is very powerful, and he won't be at a disadvantage in fighting with the servants. I don't need to worry about it." Agas lowered his face, "You are the one who needs to worry, Noah."

"Well, it seems that you are the one who knows the reality of the dream." Rhodes licked his lower lip with his tongue, and smiled extremely mockingly, "His memory...was sealed by you, right?"

"I haven't done that kind of thing." Agas raised his chin, his voice was low, "Manipulating the fate of others at will, I won't do such a thing."

Maximizing the holy and uncontrollable defense power that was almost mastered now, Astra slowly closed her eyes.

Fluorescent green and sea blue lights blend with each other, rendering the unusual space even more bizarre.Astra, who was in the brilliance, looked calm, her closed eyes never trembled, her palms on both sides were pressed against her legs, and she stood up straight.

Without making Agas wait too long, Astra opened his eyes.

The firefly green and sea blue all disappeared, replaced by bright golden light released in his palm.

"Galaxy Star Burst!"

The entire space shook violently, making Rhodes, who was originally calm, widen his eyes, and someone actually destroyed her space.

Regardless of the fact that the ground at his feet had been broken, Astra stretched out his right hand towards Agas with a gentle expression on his face: "Let's go."

Agas couldn't help being in a daze. He still remembered that his younger brother, who was still a boy, had said this to him a long time ago.

"Go home, brother."

Just like when they were first summoned, the hands of the two touched each other again.

The hurricane messed up the hair of the two of them, and a huge beam of golden light rose into the sky, so dazzling that Rhodes used his hand to cover it.

When the light faded, there was no one there anymore.

"It's too bad, Lei Luo!" Pumpkin Umbrella yelled, "The exorcist ran away!"

Rhodes showed an expression of seeing the toy: "It's really interesting, Astra."

It is not only the exorcist who can destroy the space created by Noah, but even Noah has never done this kind of thing, but now there are so many exorcists who have not joined the group for a long time, this holy war It turned out to be a lot more fun than she thought.

Taking out the birthday, Merlin immediately complained: "Really, Master, did you forget me?"

Astra's power was too frenzied, so Merlin almost failed to catch up with the two of them. Fortunately, at the last moment, he touched the Master's clothes and was brought out.

"Uh——" Even Astra was a little embarrassed. Because he was used to Merlin's invisible body, he would often ignore the existence of Merlin. If he hadn't taken the initiative to grab him just now, he would have left Caster behind. In that place.

"Ah - Astra!"

Hearing this voice, Astra knew that he was lucky. Although he was involved in inexplicable time and space from time to time, fortunately he returned to the correct time and place.

Wiping off the non-existent sweat, Astra said with emotion: "It's finally come out, that kind of place without a sense of time is really uncomfortable."

No no no, you don't feel that way, do you?Fujimaru Tatsuka rolled her big eyes, and complained bluntly.

"Astera, you are too much! You actually left so many demons to me to deal with alone!" Regarding the encounter just now, the rabbi refused in his heart, but he had to do it obediently due to the situation .Now that he saw the boy, he naturally complained bluntly.

"I can't help it. There are a lot of things on my side." Astra explained, "The rabbi should already know about the cooperation between the Millennium Earl and his followers."

"Ah!" When the rabbi was on the ship, he got the exact news from Komuyi, and the earl got the collaborator.

"It seems that you already know." Astra sighed softly, "Then it's easy to say."

"Huh?" The rabbi suddenly had a bad feeling.

"Komui said that he would let all the exorcists from the Black Order come over, and you just have to fight with them when the time comes."

"Wait! If we fight, what are you... doing?"

Dazzling brilliance burst out from Astra's hands, making Rabbi dumbfounded.

"Of course we fought the servants. Before meeting Li Nali and Allen, our enemies were all servants."

I don't know who said "the fog has dissipated" all of a sudden, and everyone present realized that it was because of the absence of that layer of mist that their vision was extremely clear. The street under the sun was deserted, and there was no one there. Let the weather that should be full of warmth is still not so cold.

Seeing Fujimaru Tachika rubbing her skin, Astra looked at Rabbi and asked, "Rabbi, are you cold?"

"Ah?" The rabbi was stunned for a moment, seeing that only a thin white shirt was left on the boy's body, no matter how slow he was, he should understand what the other party meant.

He took off the regiment uniform and handed it to Astra, wondering: "Speaking of which, where did your regiment uniform go? It must be sold!"

"How is it possible." Astra didn't put it on by herself, but put it on the shivering Fujimaru Tachika. "Dr. Roman always told me to take care of my health. I think this sentence is more suitable for you."

"Hey?" Rabbi pointed at Astra, very surprised, "You gave the coat to someone else, what should you do?"

Astra looked at the red-haired boy strangely, with a puzzled expression on his face: "It's very simple, I don't feel cold, otherwise I wouldn't give my clothes to others to freeze myself."

"Wait—" Realizing a certain possibility, the rabbi swallowed, "Shouldn't you be activating holiness all the time?"

"This is impossible, don't think about it." Speaking of this, Astra pouted, "It takes too much physical strength to activate the holy, and I don't want to faint before the final battle."

Having learned the lesson before, Astra always reminded herself that she bears the magic power supply of two servants on her body, so she decided not to overuse holiness.

I don’t know if it’s because of his physique. Astra is not afraid of the scorching heat and severe cold. If he doesn’t want to be too noticeable, even in the coldest weather, he can walk on the road wearing only a shirt without any physical discomfort at all. happened.

But now that he saw Fujimaru Tateka's frozen fingers, he knew that it was not safe to continue standing here.

"Rabbi, go look around and see if there is a small shop that can keep you warm."

Astra's ability to adapt to sudden changes in the weather does not mean that ordinary people like Fujimaru Tachika can do it. He doesn't want to let the savior die of freezing to death because of an accident.

"Why me?" the rabbi dissatisfied, "Astera, can you go too?"

Astra glanced at Agas and Merlin beside him, and then at the rabbi.

"If I leave, these two servants will definitely follow, so how long can you handle it here?"

It's not that he doesn't want to move, Astra has considered many situations, especially now that the enemy is in the dark, he can't act easily.He didn't tell the rabbi that Fujimaru Tachika was the real target of those followers compared to himself.

Having learned about the strength of the servants from Komuyi, Rabbi became even more curious about Astra. What did he rely on to make the two servants fight for him wholeheartedly?

Seeing the eyes of the rabbi before he left, Astra couldn't help but smile wryly. These two servants are indeed powerful, but as the master... he knows almost nothing about them.

A famous court magician in history, a servant who has no other information except his real name, if possible, Astra would be more willing to choose a servant who knows the details, so that he can use it with more peace of mind.

He knew very well that on the one hand, he was relying on Agas, but on the other hand, he couldn't fully trust him. He didn't ask the other party to get rid of everything, but he would not accept his complete concealment in other places.

For example, Astra was once an old friend of Agas.

Fujimaru Tachika took a deep breath, with a bitter face: "I really envy Astra, must I exercise regularly?"

When he was in Pengo Lie, Astra was unwilling to accept what others gave for nothing, and would occasionally go out with the leader as a bodyguard to discuss cooperation. When encountering those who were really ignorant, he would use force to solve them.

I just don’t know if his mission is the exercise Fujimaru Tatsuka mentioned?

After thinking for a while, Astra tightened the clothes on Fujimaru Tachika's body, patted him on the shoulder, and said earnestly: "If you are like Dr. Roman, you will have no future."

"Pfft—" Not surprisingly, the magician was the only one who had this kind of reaction among the people present.I saw the young man with the scepter put away raised a hand and spoke calmly. "Master, Romani will be sad if you say that."

Astra squinted at the follower who was dismantling the stage, and said nonchalantly: "Merlin, I remember that Dr. Roman hates you... in every way."

"Well, indeed." When this point was mentioned, Merlin still didn't get angry. "Maybe it's what the Master once said."

"Huh? What did I say?" Astra was a little surprised. He didn't remember mentioning the relationship between Dr. Roman and Merlin.

Merlin smiled and said: "You said that there are too many legends about me, and it's hard to tell the truth from the false. Then——Romani must have misunderstood me because of this."

Astra didn't know if he should tell Caster his feelings, he always felt that Romani hated Merlin, and there were probably other reasons.

If you don't have proof, don't say it.

After making up her mind, Astra neither denied nor agreed with Merlin's opinion, and chose to remain silent wisely.

Just like he had already decided from the beginning, he would not have a deep bond with any follower, nor would he interfere in the relationship between other followers.

"I'm back." The rabbi pointed to a direction and explained, "Because of some things that happened in this area before, many shops were closed, and the only one that survived—"

"It's the facilitator of the religious order." Astra followed the rabbi's words, and did not give the other party any chance to tantalize him.

"Astra..." The rabbi complained endlessly, couldn't it give him a sense of accomplishment?

Astra turned a blind eye and asked blankly, "You can lead the way now, Exorcist."

"Hey, hey, why are you turning your face and denying people! You are also an exorcist!" The rabbi yelled, but he was leading the way.

Following behind the rabbi, Agas suddenly spoke.

"A demon can transform into a human, don't you worry that it's fake?"

Astra glanced at her side calmly, and lowered her voice: "The Holy Spirit didn't take the initiative, which means there is no problem."

Just in case, Astra never told anyone else that whenever a demon appeared, his holiness would activate automatically, a phenomenon like a god giving judgment to a sinful soul.

"You never said such a thing, Master." Agas said with a cold face, "I just want to eliminate the danger around you as much as possible, please don't think too much."

Astra raised her eyebrows, looking very angry, she even used honorifics.

It's not what he should do to please the servant, and this servant's class is still Ruler.

The servant who was summoned for the Holy Grail, and the self who acted to retrieve the past...Astera didn't know which of them...was the sadder one.

"It's here, it's here."

The rabbi stopped in front of a house, turned his head, and showed a meaningful smile.

"Don't be surprised when you wait."

"It's just a store, what's so surprising." Fujimaru Tachika didn't care much about the words of the exorcist named Rabbi, and opened the door directly. Seeing that there was nothing special, he said, "What? Well, isn’t it just an ordinary store——eh!!!”

Ten minutes later, Fujimaru Tachika blushed, lowered her head, and said nothing.

"Hahahaha——" The woman in exaggerated clothes laughed heartily. She half covered her face with a fan, but she didn't block the penetration of the sound at all.

Astra sat calmly on the side, looking at the smirking rabbi, resting her chin.

"Is that your purpose?"

"Hey——My original goal was you, Astra, but I didn't expect Tachika Fujimaru to open the door by himself." With a very regretful expression, the rabbi flattened his mouth, "Why are you always like this, Astra?" Calm down, are you not surprised when you know what store this is?"

After taking a sip of water calmly, Astra said in a startling language: "I've been to this kind of place many times, and it's not a big deal."

"No, no, no, your speech is very problematic. You are about the same age as me!" The rabbi broke down a bit, "Why do you often go in and out of this kind of place!!"

"It's necessary for work." Astra smiled lightly, "It's a serious job."

Rabbi & Fujimaru Tachika: "..." What kind of work...requires frequent visits to this kind of place?

Agas was a little surprised that the assistants of the order actually worked in nightclubs, but he didn't ask any questions considering that they had also been in some places that were not very popular.

However, didn't Astra have no memory of the past?Why do you still remember? ?Or, did he go again this time?

Agas felt that the latter was more likely, glanced at his master, and continued to remain silent.

During the period, the rabbi used the phone in the store to contact Li Nali and the others through the connection of the small robot around him. He also knew from the girl who came for support.

It has to be said that it is really quite a large scale.

After telling the story of Astra there, Li Nali did not respond, and after a while, the words of the long-lost Kulos came.

"As he pleases."

As indifferent and indifferent as ever, the rabbi could only laugh dryly.

He told Astra what had happened, and ensured that the order allowed him to act freely. Since Marshal Kulos didn't specifically remind him, then this is the result of the order's acquiescence.

Before the decisive battle, neither the exorcist nor Tachika Fujimaru could hardly conceal the worry and anxiety on their expressions.

"Isn't Astra afraid?"

Astra, who was recovering from a nap, opened her eyes. Seeing Fujimaru Tatsuka frowning, she yawned and sat up from the sofa.

"Scared." Astra said bluntly, "If this battle fails, human beings will come to an end. As long as I think about this, I can't sleep at night."

"But you obviously slept soundly." Fujimaru Tachika stared at the blue-haired boy who was about his age, and said in a serious tone, "I have always envied Astra. Bravery and strength are things I don't have."

"But strictly speaking, the master of Chaldea is you, Fujimaru Tachika." Seeing the puzzled look on the other side, Astra sneered, "You have something that I don't have, and this kind of thing is important for human beings. is essential."

"Astra is also a human being, why would she say such things that have nothing to do with her?"

"But I lack such things." Astra stood up, rubbed Fujimaru Tateka's hair, and her expression softened. "Don't worry about Fujimaru Tachika, you are invincible with this kind of thing."

It wasn't until she was fooled by Astra and watched the other party's back disappear from sight in a daze, that Fujimaru Tachika wailed: "He ran away with him again."

Knowing that Astra should not be the one to take the lead in the conversation, he still foolishly believes that the other party will seriously answer his questions again and again... Such a self is really stupid.

After leaving the rest room, Agas looked at Astra who was ready to go.

"Is what you said to Fujimaru Tachika just now sincere?"

"Believe it and it will come true. If you don't believe it, it's just words to appease him." Astra smiled indifferently, "Agas, do you think belief or truth...which one is more useful?"

"There's nothing comparable to this." Agas noticed an unusual smell, and seeing that there was no one in the hall, he couldn't help asking, "Master, are you planning to—"

"The exorcist is just a bait, but to get someone to take the bait, I need to strike first."
