"Little Sakura, don't be afraid, I'm here."
Fu Yuan's gentle words reached Matou Sakura's ears, bringing a sliver of hope and warmth to her despair.
That's right... she wasn't abandoned by everyone. She still had this big brother by her side.
While comforting Matou Sakura, Fu Yuan coldly glared at Matou Zouken. "Is this how you treat the reason you took Little Sakura in? Not only did you not treat her well, but you also planned to have these disgusting worms perform Magecraft Modification on her."
"That's right."
Chapter 9: Matou Zouken: I've Seen It All!
"That's right."
Matou Zouken admitted without hesitation. He continued, "I had no intention of nurturing Little Sakura. She's merely an important tool I need."
"Because the descendants of my Matou family either have inferior Mage Circuits or are trash without any Mage Circuits at all. I had no choice but to modify other excellent individuals and then parasitize them onto her."
Matou Zouken seemed to have Fu Yuan and Matou Sakura completely cornered. He answered all of Fu Yuan's questions very readily.
A typical villain who dies from talking too much.
Matou Sakura, despite possessing exceptionally outstanding Mage Circuits, was merely a little girl who had never been exposed to Magecraft.
Fu Yuan seemed to possess power, but Matou Zouken didn't believe he had the ability to escape his Magecraft Workshop.
One must know that a Magecraft Workshop is a mage's territory, and also a mage's final fortress.
A Magecraft Workshop is a 'domain' created by a mage to hone their Magecraft.
Within a Magecraft Workshop, even the most powerful mage, as long as they are not the owner of the workshop, will find their Magecraft or mysteries greatly restricted.
As the owner of the Magecraft Workshop, one can also greatly enhance their own strength by utilizing the workshop.
Of course, there have been many instances where, due to the vast difference in strength between the two parties, both the person and the workshop were blown up by the opponent.
Currently, there are tens of thousands of Magic Crest Worms within Matou Zouken's Magecraft Workshop, and the area outside the workshop is also piled high with Magic Crest Worms. He couldn't believe this mysterious young man could escape his Magecraft Workshop!
Dazzling lightning suddenly appeared.
The shining lightning transformed into arcs of light and electricity, then flowed across Fu Yuan's body. Even Fu Yuan's sharply defined black and white eyes were filled with the glow of lightning.
The electrical arcs that brushed against Fu Yuan's messy hair brought no sensation to the Matou Sakura he held, as the power of lightning materialized from True Qi was entirely under Fu Yuan's control.
With his True Qi circulating, Fu Yuan appeared as if a thunder god had descended. He pointed a finger, crackling with electricity, at Matou Zouken in the underground workshop.
"Matou Zouken, you just experienced the feeling of being torn apart by lightning. Next, I will let you taste what it's like to be blasted into powder by the Swift Feather Lightning."
Fu Yuan's phone had already recorded the entire scene and conversation. Thus, his objective had been achieved.
Now, it was time for Fu Yuan to obliterate Matou Zouken and destroy the Matou family.
Looking at Fu Yuan, whose body was enveloped in lightning, Matou Zouken's expression began to change as he felt a suffocating pressure emanating from Fu Yuan.
The Magic Crest Worms that Matou Zouken had meticulously cultivated were roaring in fear of Fu Yuan's lightning, as if they were facing not a human, but a violent and destructive force of pure lightning.
Such astonishing aura... Who exactly is this man? He didn't seem to be using Magecraft just now, so why did he suddenly unleash such incredible lightning Magecraft?
Matou Zouken was horrified and incredulous.
Normally, when a mage uses Magecraft, they perform tedious incantations, and some Magecraft requires hand gestures, followed by expending their internal mana to activate the Magecraft Foundation and thus use the relevant Magecraft.
This means setting up corresponding magic circles, allowing the magic circles to replace incantations and gestures.
The more powerful the Magecraft, the more conditions there are for its release, and the more preparation time is needed... But the man before Matou Zouken, who appeared like a thunder god descending, seemed to have unleashed such astonishing Magecraft in an instant.
Matou Zouken had lived for over five hundred years; he had seen it all...
However, this scene before him was something Matou Zouken had truly never seen before!
What Fu Yuan was using was not Magecraft at all, but True Qi!
The True Qi cultivated from Great Void Sword Qi, combined with the Valkyrie - Swift Feather template, allowed Fu Yuan to use all of Valkyrie - Swift Feather's abilities at will.
Mastering the power of lightning and unleashing thunderous assaults was a characteristic of Valkyrie - Swift Feather after activating the Amplifier Core.
"Who are you!?" Matou Zouken asked, looking somewhat wary at Fu Yuan, whose entire body was crackling with lightning.
"Me? Didn't Tohsaka Tokiomi tell you before?" Fu Yuan, still holding Matou Sakura, formed an offensive stance with one hand and slowly replied, "I'm just an ordinary person."
An ordinary person?!
An ordinary person would have lightning all over their body??
Fu Yuan wasn't like Matou Zouken; he didn't have the boring desire to show off his power or engage in banter with his enemies. So, he said sternly, "Matou Zouken, prepare to die. I'm coming."
"...Ridiculous junior!" Matou Zouken suppressed his wariness deep within his heart and said fiercely, "This is my territory!"
"Go! All of you, kill this man!"
As Matou Zouken's sharp voice fell, the Magic Crest Worms, which had been cowering from the lightning, became agitated. Obeying their command, they began to act.
Matou Zouken's Magecraft Workshop erupted with a dizzying cacophony. The uneasily wriggling Magic Crest Worms, driven by Matou Zouken, emitted countless sharp and piercing screeches.
They frantically flapped their wings, scraped their sharp limbs, and opened their mandibles, lunging towards Fu Yuan and Matou Sakura.
The sheer number of Magic Crest Worms formed an overwhelming tide, a dark swarm of insects that surged towards Fu Yuan and Matou Sakura like waves crashing upon a shore.
Fu Yuan coldly gazed at the oncoming swarm of Magic Crest Worms. His initial stance shifted, his palm transforming into a fist. Then, Fu Yuan, crackling with lightning, punched the wall of the Magecraft Workshop behind him.
Matou Zouken saw this scene and thought Fu Yuan intended to smash through the wall and escape. However, Fu Yuan had no intention of fleeing; he hadn't eliminated Matou Zouken yet, nor had he destroyed the Matou family.
"Swift Feather Transformation: Sky-Bouncing Scales!"
With Fu Yuan's powerful shout and a punch, brilliant electrical light exploded at the point where his fist met the wall. Immediately after, countless dazzling lightning cracks erupted across the wall.
These lightning cracks, dense and terrifying like an electrical grid, spread out in all directions of the Magecraft Workshop.
All the Magic Crest Worms that had been lunging at Fu Yuan and Little Sakura were struck by the lightning cracks.
Under the terrifying crackling of thunderous strikes, the Magic Crest Worms attacking Fu Yuan and Little Sakura were instantly charred by the terrifying lightning, turning into a pile of black ash.
