It doesn't matter, if the sky falls, there are tall people to hold it up.
Of course, this is only one side of the story from Koyanskaya, and no one knows how the world will continue.
But then Matou Ike thought of another question, and it was now his turn to ask. So he looked up at Koyanskaya, who was playing with her tail.
"So, in your opinion, will the Chaldea people continue to conquer this Lostbelt?"
Koyanskaya, however, said with little interest:
"Who knows? After all, I'm not a member of Chaldea. But when I first saw this Lostbelt, I wondered if my tail was not enough. But now it seems there's no need to include this world."
She raised an eyebrow and continued:
"But after seeing you, I'd like to use my tail to capture you."
"Hmm?" Matou Ike asked, somewhat puzzled.
Koyanskaya gently curled her fox tail and brought it close to the edge of the rift gate, looking somewhat coquettish.
"As a beast for my amusement, although I don't understand your value, the fact that I have time to talk to you here means you are a valuable client. If you are willing to bow down to me, I don't mind adding you to my sanctuary when this pipe dream bursts. What do you say?"
Matou Ike merely twitched the corner of her mouth and glanced at Koyanskaya with a hint of disdain.
That look in his eyes was like that of a scumbag who had abandoned a simp who had been pursuing him for years.
That's quite fitting, since foxes are canines.
Then, Matou Ike quickly placed his hand on the tower that had transformed into a rift gate, skillfully located the spring that had been used to open it, used magic to simulate the command pattern, and gave it the command to close the gate.
Then he said slowly:
"Not very good..."
Chapter 316 She is anxious
boom! boom! boom!
That's the sound of the tail tapping against the crystal wall of the world; it can be heard even through a layer of sheath.
"You bastard! This Lostbelt is doomed because of guys like you!"
"I am the one who holds the authority over the principles of appreciation and collection, how dare you!!"
This was the voice of the mad fox, somewhat embarrassed and angry.
The frequency of the knocking increased, but the sound transmitted through the gap decreased as the door closed.
"The stuff I collect are all Lostbelt level items, and even saviors who saved the world once. I usually refuse when people rush me to collect them, but you dare to refuse me like this?!"
Bang! Crash! Crash!
"I'll definitely see with my own eyes how you break this Lostbelt!"
"Even if you kneel down and beg me, calling me master, I will never accept you!"
"Aaaaah!! Say your name!! I'm going to strip you of your primate status, I'm going to throw you into..."
Until finally, only the last echo could be heard carried on the wind.
It seems to be something like killing some kind of holy realm.
Matouchi simply ignored both of them.
He turned around to look at Weber and Melvin behind him.
He noticed that Webber and Melvin were also staring at him.
Both sides are waiting for the other to make the first move.
There was silence for a while.
Matou Ike said:
"Do you still want to buy this sacred land?"
"Uh, I thought you were going to explain the origins of that terrifying guy over there, or that you were going to erase our memories with magic. I didn't expect you to talk about this..."
Weber shook his head, trying to detach himself from what had just happened.
Matou Ike simply smiled upon hearing this and said:
“There’s no need for that. And I believe that even if you two go back to the Clock Tower, you won’t reveal what happened today, right? After all, if people are told about the end of the world in advance, it will only cause panic.”
Matou Ike paused for a moment, then continued:
"And since that white storm appeared, the Mage's Association has been making corresponding preparations, hasn't it?"
Weber nodded and said nothing more, but Melvin spoke with great interest:
"Of course, I will still buy this sacred land, but Lord Matou, you just had a falling out with that guy who looks like a supplier, right? Doesn't that mean there will be problems with the production of Mythical Beasts? In that case, the price might... you know."
Looking at Melvin's expression, Matou Ike knew exactly what this guy was up to, and sighed, saying:
"Tell me, what do you want?"
"Hmm, let me think. I want to know about the Chaldea organization, since I've never heard of such a magical organization before."
Melvin thought for a long time, during which he even vomited blood all over Weber, before slowly uttering this request.
Not long after, Matouchi agreed to the terms and told them some things related to Chaldea.
......
"So they appeared during the Holy Grail War... That guy wasn't lying to me after all, my future self really can do that kind of thing..."
After listening to Matouchi's account, Weber muttered to himself.
Seeing Waver Velvet's reaction, Matou Ike guessed that before leaving the Holy Grail War, this guy must have seen his future self, El-Melloi II, who descended to this world by borrowing Zhuge Liang's spirit origin.
Unlike Weber, who was deep in thought, Melvin almost laughed himself breathless after hearing the story.
"I had no idea there was such an interesting thing. The monarch of Animusfia actually did something so big in secret. It's really something. They're all aristocrats, yet they didn't even tell us about this."
He paused for a moment, as if he had suddenly thought of something.
"Speaking of which, it seems that Monarch Animusphia is currently undertaking a secret research project. Could this be what he's referring to?"
Matou Ike raised an eyebrow, then thought of the Celestial Science Monarch, Marisbury Animusfia, who seemed to be researching how to bring the Boundary Record to his familiar.
After all, according to the church's intelligence, he and the head of the Department of Modern Magic were the culprits who allowed Beelzebub to descend into this world as a Heroic Spirit.
Could it be that he also intends to establish Chaldea in this world?
I didn't dwell on it any longer. After all, this monarch was shrouded in mystery, and continuing to think about it would only turn my head into mush.
......
After some casual conversation, Melvin and Weber bid farewell to Matouchi, saying they needed to hurry back to the Clock Tower to negotiate with the El-Melloi family.
Because Matouchi told them that he could stay here for five more days, and if the transaction was not completed within five days, then the transaction would be void.
Upon hearing these words, Weber clearly felt a sense of urgency, after all, this was the grave of a man he could never forget in his life.
After drafting a contract, the two paid a high price to book an expedited flight back to London.
After the two left, Matou Ike began to tidy up the remaining items in the ruins and completely modified the barrier around the area.
Besides him, the only other people in this ruin are some magicians and ordinary people captured by Balzan.
what?
You're asking where the guards went?
Indeed, it's impossible that such a vast site could be guarded by only two groups of people.
However, when Matouchi arrived at the center of this ritual site, he sent out a group of insects to kill all the creatures that could move freely on this sacred land.
After all, he is an insect tamer.
As for these unfortunate magicians who were caught, Matouike had eaten vegetarian food, chanted Buddhist scriptures, and even lived in a temple for a period of time.
He has a kind heart!
They used forced suggestion magic to erase all their memories of this place.
Although a few lucky ones unfortunately became idiots.
But it's better than becoming the spark needed for this magic workshop to operate, isn't it?
Um, is it really better?
Matou Ike couldn't help but ask himself.
However, there's nothing that can be done about it; forced suggestion magic is inherently a rather dangerous technique.
Out of a dozen or so magicians, only a few became idiots, a result that Matou Ike could only achieve by being sufficiently proficient in this magic trick.
If you were to replace Webber or Melvin with the current one, at least half of them would become idiots.
After completing the necessary tasks, Matou Ike began to take stock of his gains.
Chapter 317 Reines
Besides the so-called intelligence, the trip yielded some physical items as well.
First and foremost are these new magic eyes.
The Eye of Stillness – possesses the ability to stop all movement of any creature it sees, but it is easily ineffective if the target is highly mysterious.
Of course, this is based on the premise that the holder of the Magic Eye cannot see through the other party's mystery, resulting in the judgment failing.
If one can fully decipher the mystery of the other party, even though these eyes are only products of the "Azure Jade and Red Jade" level, they can still play an unexpected role.
Besides that, there was the pile of historical fragments that Balzan had previously considered tattered.
But Matou Pond still found something good inside.
A branch, like a withered branch that falls off automatically from certain tree species in autumn.
No matter how you look at it, it's something that sanitation workers would throw into the trash can.
The only doubt is that this tree branch is indeed over 2300 years old.
However, it showed no signs of carbonization.
