"— — — —"
Hearing Altoria's words, the scene became silent.
Everyone fell silent, as though they couldn't speak a word.
Even Matthew could not say a word for a while. She was speechless, and her eyes were full of complex emotions.
It was impossible to come back.
How could Matthew not understand what this sentence meant?
It should be said that Mashu also faintly felt this way.
After all, since Rozen came back, there had been inexplicable sounds and feelings in Matthew's body. After entering this singularity, there were frequently emotions that even Matthew could not control. It made Matthew feel that she would be affected by the inexplicable consciousness in her body, or even replaced, and thus unable to have her own will.
Now, Altoria directly exposed this matter, so Matthew could only lower her head and fall into silence.
But after a while, Matthew looked at Rozen again.
"Senior knew about this long ago?" Matthew said with some disappointment, "Why didn't you tell me?"
Matthew asked this, naturally not to blame Rozen.
At least, Matthew did not believe that Rozen chose to hide it from her because he did not dare to tell her that she suffered such a disaster because of him.
That was the truth.
"If I tell you, with your personality, you will not blame me, but only blame yourself, right?"
Rozen turned his head and looked at Matthew. His eyes looked straight into Matthew's eyes, and he reached out and stroked her bangs.
"No one knows better than me how gentle and kind you are. If I tell you this, you definitely won't think that I'm the cause of your body's condition. Instead, you'll think that you're useless. I've clearly grown up and can even bring you great power, but you don't have the ability to unleash this power. Instead, you're in a dangerous situation where your power is being controlled, right?"
Exactly.
With Matthew's personality, she would definitely only feel self-blame, thinking that it was her own lack of ability, not Rozen who caused her power to fall into a situation where it was out of control.
Because of this, Rozan Can specifically told Roman and the others to hide it from Matthew for the time being.
"If possible, I actually hope that you can stop fighting."
Rozen said what was in his heart.
"As you can see, I've grown up to the point where I don't even need to be afraid of the gods. I'm no longer the novice master who can't fight against the servants after losing his contract. I'm no longer the novice master who has to adventure in the singularity."
"I am strong enough to deal with any servant. Even if Solomon comes, I am no longer afraid."
"I'm already strong enough to protect you properly and not let you suffer any harm. I don't want you to stand in front of me and use your small body as a heavy shield to block all attacks for me."
"I just want to be like how you protected me back then, to be your shield, to stand in front of you, to shield you from the wind and rain."
"So, if my growth causes you to fall into self-blame, then what do I need this power for?"
Rozen smiled bitterly because of that.
"Senpai, I …"
Matthew wanted to say something.
"I know you want to say that you can do it. You've always been satisfied to be my shield and fight side by side with me, right?"
Rozen interrupted Mashu's words, and his eyes softened.
"I know you will say that. Back then, we also promised to fight side by side, and for this promise, even if you are afraid of fighting, no matter how afraid you are of fighting, you persisted all the way. How can I let you down?"
"From the day we signed the contract, our fates have been linked."
"No, in that fire, or even before that, perhaps our fates were already linked together. That's not for certain."
That's what he said.
"Therefore, I won't say something like letting you withdraw from the front line and fight by myself."
"But I also hope you don't blame yourself. You have indeed grown up. The reason why you can't completely awaken the power in your body is not because you are not capable enough, but it's not the right time."
"Now, under my influence, the power in your body has gradually become active, so you can definitely awaken it little by little."
Rozen said with great certainty.
"Can't come back?"
"That's the most impossible thing."
"Believe me, as long as I am here, no one can take you away."
Rozen made such a promise to Matthew.
That was not Rozen's nonsense.
With his current ability, there was indeed a way to prevent Matthew's will from being replaced.
It should be said that even if she was replaced, Rozen could call Matthew back.
Not to mention Mount Tai Prefect's Sacrifice, just Soul Summoning was enough. The effect of this spell was Soul Summoning.
Even the soul could be summoned back, let alone a person's will and consciousness.
Therefore, Rozen was not worried that Matthew's spirit would be replaced by the will of the servant in her body.
If he really wanted to do it, Rozen could even completely suppress the servant in Matthew's body, or even expel and disperse it, so that Matthew could return to a normal human being, not a sub-servant.
He didn't do that just because it was not what Matthew wanted.
Since Matthew's wish was to fight side by side with Rozen, then Rozen would do his best to fulfill Matthew's wish and make her stronger.
Now, Matthew might be troubled by the abnormality in her body, but with the activation of her power, Matthew would awaken the real power in her body at a faster speed.
For such a reason, Rozan Can had been watching Matthew and did not intervene in her body's abnormality.
"Senpai …"
After knowing Rozen's true intention, Matthew's eyes were no longer complicated, and her mood was no longer depressed. Instead, she looked at Rozen with a smile.
At this moment, Matthew's eyes were filled with love, attachment, and infatuation that she didn't even notice.
"I will work hard, senpai."
Matthew couldn't help but hold Rozen's hand.
"Okay."
Rozen immediately smiled and held Matthew's palm.
Looking at those two people, everyone couldn't help but laugh.
"Oh, oh …"
"It's good to be young …"
"Hmph …"
Even Da Vinci, Roman, and Olga Marie couldn't help but laugh. Some smiled, and some snorted coldly without being frank. Their eyes were surprisingly gentle.
The strong bond between Rozen and Matthew was undoubtedly revealed here.
"Since it's settled, let's go in."
Only then did Altoria speak.
"There are more than a thousand refugees. We have to arrange for them to be scattered to various villages and speed up the collection of food. It will be a very difficult period in the future. I hope no one will starve to death."
That's what Artoria said, and she intended to make the arrangements.
But …
"No, there's no need for that. You should just give the order for all the mountain people in the villages to gather here immediately."
That was what Rozen said.
"Next, let me improve your conditions."
As soon as this was said, Altoria was stunned.
