Moon World Girlfriend Comes Knocking Chapter 176
He sensed that Merlin wasn't in good shape, as if he'd been badly beaten up.
"It's just a minor injury, nothing serious." Merlin smiled and waved his hand. "More importantly, remember what I just said: if anyone asks, never reveal my location."
"What did you do?" Roman asked, puzzled.
"Hmm." Merlin nodded, giving a mysterious smile.
"I did something that no one else dared to do."
Lan Ze had a dream.
He didn't know whether he should say it was a dream.
He found himself in complete darkness, where he couldn't see his own hand in front of his face, except for a large, round door that emitted a faint glow.
The light seemed to be saying to him, "Come here, only here can give you warmth."
But Lan Ze remained standing still, showing no intention of moving forward.
The only things in this world that can bring him warmth are the sunshine and crabapples.
The former warms the body, the latter warms the soul.
"Could it be Merlin's doing?" Lan Ze suddenly muttered to himself.
He suddenly remembered something very important.
Just as I was about to fall asleep, I seemed to vaguely hear Merlin chanting some kind of Magecraft incantation.
He was just too sleepy at the time, and he knew Merlin wouldn't harm him, so he couldn't be bothered to pay any attention to Merlin.
But now that I think about it, the fact that I'm in this kind of "lucid dream" Dreamscape is very likely because Merlin is secretly behind it all.
If Merlin really was behind this, then there are only two possibilities.
One possibility is that Merlin's Magecraft spell at the time was Magecraft that would allow him to sleep better... but that white-haired sorcerer probably wouldn't take such meticulous care of someone, after all, it's not Miss Merlin.
Another possibility is the Heroic Spirit Summoning.
Lan Ze remembered that after putting on the virtual reality glasses last night, he was initially in this pitch-black environment where he couldn't see his own hand in front of his face.
Then he slowly felt someone calling him, and shortly after that, he saw Karen in the church.
If I'm not mistaken, behind that glowing door in front of me is likely the Master who is summoning me.
Just as Lan Ze was thinking this, he suddenly vaguely sensed that someone was chanting an ancient Magecraft incantation.
The voice was clear and melodious, and exceptionally earnest.
"Be full, be full, be full, be full. The cycle repeats itself, and then five times. But the moment of fullness is the moment of abandonment."
Lan Ze's eyes flickered slightly.
"So it really is the line from Heroic Spirit Summoning..." he muttered to himself thoughtfully, then sighed, a strange sense of regret creeping over him.
"I should have kicked Merlin a couple more times earlier."
He originally thought that Merlin had been chased and beaten up all day, so he should be pretty much obedient by now, and therefore he didn't plan to beat Merlin up again.
But looking back now, I realize I was too soft-hearted.
"Don't let me see you again, you damned Merlin!"
Lan Ze muttered to himself, listening to the Magecraft incantation that was about to end, and the "door" that was gradually approaching him as the Magecraft ended. He pondered for a while, then raised his hand and waved.
The gate, which was approaching, quietly stopped.
Lan Ze refused the summons.
"Huh?"
At the same time, the girl who was Heroic Spirit Summoning was clearly stunned for a moment, blinking her eyes and looking somewhat dazed.
I was... rejected?
That Heroic Spirit could actually refuse my summons?!
The girl's temper flared instantly when she thought of this.
"Since you have refused my summons, then I will summon you again!"
The girl, now completely enraged, only wanted to summon the Servant had rejected her, to see just what kind of person dared to refuse her.
She took a deep breath and slowly exhaled.
After catching her breath, she suddenly opened her beautiful eyes and chanted loudly. "Fill yourself, fill yourself, fill yourself, fill yourself! Repeat it five times! But the moment of fullness is the moment of decay—"
On the other side, Lan Ze's brows furrowed slightly upon hearing this voice.
This kid is quite persistent...
Even if it happened a few more times, I still couldn't accept it.
He was planning to go back for dinner.
As the door drew closer again, accompanied by the falling Magecraft incantation, Lan Ze raised his hand and waved it.
He refused the summons again.
However, almost at the same moment the summons was rejected, the chanting sound returned.
Clearly, the girl outside was determined to summon the Servant who had refused her summons, and was determined to bring out that extremely arrogant guy who had rejected her several times.
Time slips away silently.
After nearly an hour, Lan Ze simply sat down cross-legged.
He only breathed a slight sigh of relief when the Magecraft spell that Servant stopped echoing in his ears.
It seems the other party has finally given up?
Meanwhile, in the basement of the Tohsaka Family, Tohsaka Rin angrily grabbed the gem in her hand and slammed it heavily onto the table.
She was panting heavily, a few strands of hair sticking to her forehead, and muttered angrily, "What a jerk! You refused my summons, so I don't want to summon you in the first place!"
"Sister, what's wrong?" Matou Sakura stood at the basement doorway, gazing at her sister's back, and asked softly.
"There's a very troublesome Servant. I've summoned him several times, but he's refused to listen." Tohsaka Rin was so angry that she wanted to smash the Ruby in her hand, but she held back because she remembered that it was a very valuable gift from her mother.
She turned and walked up the stairs to the basement. Matou Sakura watched Tohsaka Rin's retreating figure and couldn't help but ask softly:
"Sister, where are you going?"
"Take a break." Tohsaka Rin suppressed her anger and gave her sister a kind smile, but it made Matou Sakura instinctively shrink back.
She felt that her sister's smile looked a little scary... Although she was very beautiful, the aura emanating from her was frightening no matter how you looked at it.
"Aren't you going to summon Servant?" Matou Sakura asked softly.
"Let's try summoning again later. Summoning now might just summon that arrogant guy again, and I don't want that kind of arrogant Servant." Tohsaka Rin waved her hand.
Anyway, my target isn't that arrogant or conceited person, so if they refuse, it doesn't matter.
What she wanted to summon was that gentle and mature older brother from back then.
Matou Sakura turned to look at her sister who was about to leave, then looked away and walked down the stairs.
"Oh right, is Sakura going to summon Servant too?" Tohsaka Rin paused slightly as she was about to leave, turning to look at her younger sister behind her. Suddenly, the corners of her mouth curled up slightly, forming a charming smile.
Speaking of which, if Sakura were to summon Servant now, she might very well summon that arrogant Servant again, right?
If she fails to summon that arrogant Servant several times, she will surely lose patience...
I've never seen Sakura get angry about anything before...
Thinking of this, Tohsaka Rin leaned against the doorway of the basement, watching her younger sister walk step by step to the summoning circle and then begin to chant the summoning incantation.
Almost simultaneously, in the dark space, Lan Ze heard the summoning voice again. He looked up at the gate in front of him and sighed helplessly.
Why is this girl so stubborn...?
He's rejected her six times already, and she still won't give up?
As the gate drew closer, Lan Ze raised his hand, about to swing it open.
At that moment, a thought suddenly occurred to him, and he silently withdrew his hand.
Fine, since you're so stubborn, let me see who has the patience...
Logically speaking, Magecraft are naturally arrogant, so they should have lost their temper after being rejected once or twice.
But the other party was persistent, summoning him five or six times in a row... This was quite strange.
Thinking of this, Lan Ze walked towards the door that emitted a faint light.
Tohsaka Rin crossed her arms, smiling as she looked at Matou Sakura's bewildered expression, and chuckled, "The Servant you're summoning now should be the Servant rejected me earlier. That guy's too arrogant; he's rejected me several times already."
"But don't be too disappointed, we're fine without that kind of guy," Tohsaka Rin comforted her. "The Matou Family should have prepared other Holy Relic for you, right? Why don't you try using your own Holy Relic?"
But what I want to summon is Caster... Matou Sakura hesitated for a moment, but finally nodded slightly.
She picked up the gemstone necklace from the table, turned to her, and said, "Sister, aren't you taking this with you?"
Tohsaka Rin glanced at the necklace Matou Sakura handed her and smiled, "Yes, thank you for reminding me, Sakura."
This necklace was a birthday gift from Tohsaka Rin's mother, while the original necklace was given to that mysterious Caster when she was a child.
So much time has passed now. I wonder if that person would still remember her if she were to be summoned?
Tohsaka Rin collected her thoughts slightly, smiled, patted her sister's head, and said, "Alright, you can continue summoning your Servant. I'll head out now."
After seeing Matou Sakura nod, Tohsaka Rin turned around and was about to leave.
Suddenly, a faint white light appeared behind them.
Tohsaka Rin froze in her tracks, momentarily stunned.
Could it be that... the Servant who just rejected me has accepted Sakura's summons?!
She reacted almost instantly and turned her head sharply to look over.
Matou Sakura also realized what was happening and immediately turned to look. She instinctively clasped her hands together in front of her chest as if in prayer, her eyes fixed on the front, feeling both curious and disappointed.
Curiosity stems from wanting to know what the Servant who repeatedly rejected her sister looks like, while disappointment arises from the fact that after summoning this Servant, she has no hope of summoning another Caster.
As the sisters' thoughts drifted, the light in the basement gradually faded, and a boy draped in a black robe quietly appeared in their field of vision.
Matou Sakura raised her disappointed eyes to look at the boy in front of her. After a brief gaze, it was as if a door in her mind slowly opened, and memories flooded in like a tidal wave.
Her eyes gradually widened until finally, a glimmer of hope appeared in her beautiful eyes. Her hands, clasped to her chest, clenched unconsciously, and a surge of joy welled up in her heart.
Is it that person?!
The joy was as if they had given up all hope and then pulled an SSR in a single draw.
Tohsaka Rin subconsciously looked up and her gaze fell on the boy in front of her.
After staring for a moment, her gaze became slightly vacant.
Then, he tilted his head and made a surprised sound.
"Huh?"
"Are you... are you that person?"
After a brief moment of stunned silence, Tohsaka Rin strode closer to Lan Ze, her twin tails swaying slightly, her bright eyes filled with disbelief.
This girl is playing cryptic... Lan Ze was still a bit confused, and after a while, he finally came to his senses and asked in bewilderment, "Who is that person...?"
These two look kind of familiar...
Lan Ze carefully observed the two people in front of him.
Standing in front of him appeared to be two sisters; the older sister was wearing a school uniform, and the younger sister was also wearing a school uniform.
However, there seemed to be some differences in their development. The girl with pigtails in front of them had a slender figure, and her legs were covered with stockings that reached just to her thighs, making her legs look round and long under her skirt.
The other pretty girl seemed unremarkable at first glance, but judging from the size of her breasts, they were much larger than those of the girl with pigtails.
