In Type-Moon, people create a magic family lineage

"And now, it's almost time."

Amidst these changes, Lu Kang has truly entered the realm of Western-style mansions and courtyards.

The fulcrum of the Misaki City's ley lines.

Although it's only a step away.

However, the mark he spoke of truly appeared...

The buzzing sound suddenly echoed.

Yuju of Kuonji Temple looked in the direction of the sound and was instantly stunned.

She saw a figure that was extremely familiar.

I saw a face that I never thought I would ever see.

That is.

"Mother?"

'Louis' was one of the few 'friends' of the Yamato Kingdom in the Far East.

Kuonji Yuju's mother,

The lingering shadow of a fairy tale left behind by the pure-blooded witch, the deceased Maine.

Chapter 148 The Witch's Shadow, Luvist's Debt Can Never Be Repaid

Witches are a very special race in this world named after the moon. They are not human, but a special race called fairies.

'Fairies' are a type of naturally unique fantasy species, belonging to the same category as Beowulf, the golden wolf that Aozaki Touko has just captured. They are fantasy species originating from the planet itself, and are similar to the planet's tentacle spirits.

However, since they are 'fairies' rather than 'elves', it means that fairies themselves are not pure and flawless. Compared to the manifestation of pure natural phenomena, they have bodies from the real material world and are more susceptible to the influence of this mortal world.

The first witch, or the first fairy, gained the power called 'magic' under the influence of humans.

Therefore, 'magic' is also classified as one of the 'five major arts' on the human side.

But she was ultimately a non-human 'fairy', and the magic she created was difficult for humans to completely continue and inherit—even those Cherlot royal lineages that had her blood mixed in, even her direct descendants.

They can only inherit branches of magic, and can only perpetuate mysterious 'fragments'.

After the bloodline has been further impure, it can no longer even contain 'fragments'.

After the 'Coal Witch' rose again, the one who truly inherited the original witch's mystery was no longer the Cherlot family.

Instead, she is a new, pure witch.

They initially wandered in Europe, eventually settling in Mainz in the Far East.

Born from a collateral branch of the Cherlot family, it exhibited a mysterious atavism, much like Beowulf, which should not have occurred in modern times.

It inherently possesses the mystery of the First Magic—as if it were born for it.

She should have led the Cherlot family, whose bloodline had been corrupted, back to the top of the Twelve Lords.

She was supposed to fulfill this seemingly innate mission...

However, fairies are always the most affected.

During her journey after birth, she was not found by the Cherlot family. Instead, she suddenly fell in love with a human from the Far East, the heir to the Kuonji Daizai Group. They settled in the Far East, where she eventually died.

Such a witch located in the Far East, who operated in the Far East under the name of Luvist, could not possibly be completely unknown to Lu Kang.

He met him in 1971, when his death was imminent.

Right here on this land.

In this city called Misaki City.

At that time, Mainst was also nearing the end of his life, but he took the initiative to find the gates of Academy City and approach Luvist, the "most vicious and evil person", begging him to prolong his life.

At that time, Mainst was pregnant and hoped that Lu Kang could let her live a few more years so that she could see what her daughter would look like when she first grew up.

She told Lu Kang about her past and her story.

And the origin of the 'First Magic'.

That's why Lu Kang also learned that the successor of the 'First Magician' was located inside the Clock Tower.

This allowed him to pay special attention to that plant monarch when he was in Victovar.

He granted Mainst's request.

The only requirement was that she leave her mark on the ley lines.

It left behind a shadow as a 'contract'.

...

Memories of the past surfaced in his mind like pages of a book being turned. Looking at the phantom that appeared in the courtyard, Lu Kang smiled and gave it a slight greeting. Qingzi, who heard Youzhu's subconscious murmur, was also stunned and stared at the obviously illusory existence formed by the gathering of light.

Is this Yuzhu's mother?

"So beautiful!"

A pure-blooded witch, a pure 'fairy', naturally beautiful and flawless, with her flowing black hair bearing at least a 70% resemblance to Kuonji Aratsu.

It just needs to be older.

Much more mature.

She looked to be about twenty-three or twenty-four years old.

That was precisely his posture before he died.

Yuzhu was completely stunned.

Although she was very young when her mother passed away, and a few years later, her father, who was the heir to the Kuonji Foundation and was a rich second-generation but exceptionally devoted, also passed away.

She didn't actually have a very deep impression of them.

But she looks at them every day.

Looking at those remaining images, looking at those remaining photos.

She was deeply impressed.

In any case, it's impossible for them to admit their mistake.

This scene was completely unexpected by Aozaki Touko—she had thought that Lu Kang might have a special way of proving his intentions, but she never expected that he would bring up Kuonji Yuzu's mother.

Mainster's illusory gaze swept over Youzhu, a hint of relief in his eyes.

Even though it's just a phantom, it's a phantom created from fragments of the 'First Law' combined with Lu Kang's mental magic, so it naturally possesses its own consciousness.

You could even say it was the person's 'spirit possession'.

She looked at Lu Kang.

He opened his mouth again... but then, at the prompting of his calm gaze, he instantly changed his words: "The successor of Luvist... it is a pleasure to meet you, sir."

“I’m also glad you’ve kept your ‘contract’ from back then and left your mark, Ms. Mainster,” Lu Kang said.

He also said, "As for what happens next, all you need to do is prove my identity to your daughter and explain our debt issues."

"The time you have from now on is yours to manage—"

"Ah."

Mainst smiled and said, "Thank you so much for allowing me to open my eyes again after my death... Your Excellency."

Lu Kang nodded slightly, glanced at Kuonji Yuju who seemed to be curled up in his arms, lost in thought, and then turned and left with a smile.

They were given the time to manage.

...

So, is this the end?

Aozaki Touko lit a cigarette, looking slightly puzzled.

A gentle evening breeze blew, and the lights of the Western-style mansion courtyard behind him were quiet. Lu Kang, casually leaning against a railing by the roadside, patted his clothes, which were still spotless after a battle, and said quite naturally, "What else?"

"What are you expecting, senior?"

"Of course I'm looking forward to a battle that blows this building to the sky!" Orange put her glasses back on, reverting to her more normal self: "I think, if my junior wants to, he can definitely do it."

“Being able to do something and wanting to do it are two different things,” Lu Kang said. “I don’t have that reason either.”

"Isn't giving up halfway even more unreasonable?"

Orange was helpless.

The fight had already started, and then it ended so inexplicably—she really couldn't understand it.

“That’s where your misunderstanding comes from, Aozaki-senpai.” Lu Kang put on a smile, seemingly gentle, but Orange felt as if she was looking at an old fox smiling slyly: “The more intense the fight, the deeper the misunderstanding, and the more profound their guilt towards me will be later.”

"Based on this, you can get what you want more easily."

"Put aside your magician's mindset... There's no shortage of 'weird magicians' in the Far East."

Whether it's the half-baked Aozaki Aoko or the descendant of the pure-blooded witch, Kuonji Aratsu.

They can all be considered to have rich emotions.

The easiest card to play, and always the most important, is the emotional card.

It's the most useful 'family card' in the emotional card category!

With this.

In addition, there's the legitimate issue of debt.

"Senior, I'm afraid I'll have to get there first when it comes to the power of 'magic'?"

Lu Kang, who had never intended to conceal his purpose, said this.

He looked up and gazed toward the courtyard.

And just then, they witnessed Mainst's phantom disappear once again.

And the barely perceptible glistening moisture in Kuonji Arisa's eyes.

For them...

The kindness of Lewis.

But it will never be enough to pay off!

"Tsk..." Orange was quite annoyed.

Isn't it just because they're relying on the legacy of their 'ancestors'?

she thought.

But I dare not actually say that.

But in any case, Aozaki Touko was still young and impetuous at this moment—she was determined to use her own 'magic' to seize the magic of the Aozaki family, the mystery that should have belonged to her.

Chapter 149 Living with the Gods, Yuzhu's Curiosity

"So, you're really going to stay here—?"

The following morning, the Kuonji mansion, which had been the site of what could hardly be called a 'battle' but rather a one-sided crushing defeat the previous night, was bathed in the soft light of the rising sun. The transparent glass dome cascaded down, its surface shimmering like jagged waves. The only thing that could still prove what had happened the night before was probably the hole in the wall near the entrance, which Aoko had punched with her head. Inside, a tall, elegant girl, still dressed in her school uniform, stood gracefully with her long hair flowing freely. A dark brown blazer clung to her slender figure; while not exactly voluptuous, she was undeniably youthful and charming. The hem of her skirt swayed gently between her thighs, her hips subtly visible. A pair of shapely, long legs, clad in black leather shoes, were exposed as she strolled around—looking with surprise at the seemingly unaffected figure in the hall before her.

"What?"

The boy sitting at the dining table calmly recited the coffee on the table, a smile on his face: "This place has always been mine."

"Since you can't pay the rent, this is the only way I can urge you to do so, isn't it?"

Although last night's battle has come to an end, things are far from over.

Aoko naturally couldn't come up with the $3 billion rent that Lu Kang mentioned—nor could Ayumi.

Even though one of them is the heir of the Aozaki family who manages the land veins of Misaki City, and the other is the young lady of the Kuonji Group, the richest family in Misaki City, in this era, three billion US dollars is equivalent to three hundred billion yen. Not to mention them, even the top richest people in the entire country cannot come up with such a huge amount of liquid funds.

So, Lu Kang, who wasn't receiving rent, naturally stayed.

Rightfully and irrefutably—

"What do you think, Miss Kuonji?"
