Chapter 3: I have to add money! Various)
"elder brother?"
Looking at Shinji who stopped and looked at the window, Sakura also stopped and gave a tentative shout.
Shen Er looked at the window of the jewelry store with indifferent eyes and said coldly: "Go inside and pick one you like."
...
Sakura, who was holding a white bunny doll in her arms, still followed Shenji silently with her head lowered.
"Thanks..."
Before Sakura could finish speaking, Shinji spoke, interrupting Sakura with indifferent words: "It's just because I am the eldest son of the Matou family, and I don't want to be known that the eldest son of the Matou family can't even remember his sister's birthday.
, it will embarrass the Matou family."
"Oh...right..."
Sakura responded softly and timidly apologized, but before the last word could be uttered, she heard Shinji grit his teeth and saw the clenched fists that stopped his throat, and his whole body was filled with confusion.
There was silence for once.
For Sakura, who has experienced inhuman torture that ordinary people can't even imagine at the age of nine, in recent years, the fact that the only brother in the family who once felt a little warm began to hate herself is simply adding insult to injury.
This undoubtedly increased Sakura's despair.
But despite this, Sakura still couldn't dislike her nominal brother, even though he was extremely cold and always threw the most disgusting desserts to her like garbage.
But at least it is one of the few non-poisonous normal foods that I can eat.
There was also no lack of birthday gifts every year. Sakura often comforted herself that this brother still cared about her. But the cold eyes that gradually showed jealousy always broke the girl's heart time and time again.
Also, his completely different attitude towards others and towards himself stimulated Sakura's heart again and again.
Although he always skips classes, his brother is the best in school and sports. He is humble, courteous and talkative to everyone around him, but he is extremely indifferent to himself.
Even when they saw me at school, they basically pretended not to know each other and never said too much.
...I probably really am a person who is not liked by anyone.
Shinji could probably understand Sakura's inner feelings, but there was nothing he could do about it. After all, he had to find an excuse to exercise.
What Shinji didn't expect was that his own fault would intensify Sakura's inner despair, and at the same time lay the foundation for Sakura to develop some kind of twisted emotion towards him in the future.
Even without Shinji, the instigator, knowing or noticing, even the plot began to seriously deviate from the original development of FSN...
Shen Er's idea is very simple. Now he should live in the most common sense and then develop. As for the other things, he has to wait until he grows up.
The pale moonlight and the old dim street lamps that flickered on and off due to poor contact added a bit of coldness to the already gloomy atmosphere of the Matou family courtyard.
Shinji, who had just returned home, saw the middle-aged man waiting in the living room - his cheap dad in this life, Matou Tsuruno, and the man sitting on the sofa wearing ultramarine blue and dark gray with a cane.
Kimono, limbs as thin as a mummy, hale and hearty essence revealed in the deep-set eye sockets, and the rickety body showed a slight hunchback of the bald grandfather - his own cheap grandfather. When Matou was doing the inkstone, his eyes instantly showed a bit of hope.
.
"Grandpa! Dad, I..."
Before Shinji could finish speaking, he was interrupted by Matou Tsuruno.
"Sakura, come here. Shinji, please go back to your room."
At the same time, Zangyan also stood up from the sofa, but he didn't even look at Shinji from the beginning to the end, his eyes were always locked on Sakura behind Shinji.
Shinji, who clenched his fists tightly, gritted his teeth and lowered his head, hiding his expression in the shadows.
It feels... very much like the same thing.
After the two of them left with Sakura, Shinji still didn't loosen his fist.
...
In the room, Shinji was lying on his big bed and marveled at his acting skills just now. If this had been in his previous life, it would have been a proper Oscar.
System, Shen Er whispered in his heart.
【Grandpa is here.】
Damn it! You’re taking advantage of yourself again!
Shenji cursed secretly. Then he started to check the system panel.
The entire system panel is mainly divided into the taskbar and the points mall. The points mall is not open for the time being because Shenji's cultivation level is still very weak and the permissions are insufficient.
Currently, only the task panel is open.
The task panel is mainly divided into daily tasks, main tasks, ordinary tasks and strategy tasks. After completing the tasks, you can withdraw some rewards.
Daily tasks are the simplest, just like today's training tasks, and the rewards are usually just a few spiritual energy.
There are currently no normal tasks.
There are two main tasks.
[Main mission 1: Complete the redemption of Matou Zōyan (Maqiri Zolgen) within ten years. Difficulty: SSS]
[Tip: The best redemption for him is to remind him of everything he has forgotten and send him on his way without regrets. Mission reward:???]
[Mission progress: 0.01%, remaining time: seven years (grandson, please work hard! It is urgent to save Alzheimer’s disease!)]
Shen Er was a little angry when he saw this mission. At the beginning, he didn't ask himself to redeem Lord Chong, but directly named him by name and told him to kill him within ten years!
The conversation I had with the system at that time was probably like this——
Dog System: Kill someone for me within ten years.
Shen Er: Marrow Cleansing Pill + Heart Method + Meridian Map + 200 drops of highly concentrated spiritual energy liquid required for cultivation.
Dog System: Take it, this is the fixed amount (Marrow Cleansing Pill + Heart Method + Meridian Map)
Shenji (picked it up, checked it and put it away): System, who do you want to kill?
Dog system: The head of one of the three imperial families, the Matou family - Matou Zangyan!
Shenji (scared): Who?! System, don’t you know he is my grandfather?
Dog System: Do you still care about this?
Shenji: System, you have misunderstood. This person is my blood relative and elder relative!
Dog system:......
Shenji: You have to pay more.
So after all this wrangling, the main mission also changed from [Result Matou Zoukstone within ten years] to [Redeem Matou Zoukstone within ten years], and the money was not increased at all! In addition to changing the mission
This statement has not changed at all!
This dog system still knows how to play!
Next is the second main task.
[Main mission two: Completely destroy and eliminate the Holy Grail system. Difficulty: SSSS]
[Tip: The Fifth Holy Grail War, Holy Grail System, Einzbern Factory. Mission reward: ????]
[Mission progress: 0.003%, remaining time: seven years]
This mission is really more perverted than the last.
Shenji sighed. He had done the daily exercise task of changing a little bit of spiritual energy every day for three years before he entered the spiritual path. He wanted to do this in the next Holy Grail War - the fifth Holy Grail War seven years later.
The thing is basically just a dream.
but……
[Sun Tzu, this is all a test for you. I believe you can complete it, so the rewards I set for you are the highest risk! As long as you complete the task, the reward will definitely exceed your imagination!
But the relative risk is a little bit, that is, there is a 90% chance of becoming a vegetative state after failure. However, I believe that as my bloodline, you will never have the slightest chance of failing the mission. Come on, Austria
Benefit.]
