Dimensional Codex System: I'm really not a cultist!-Chapter 863 - 862 Your Name...
These dolls aren’t enough for Fang Zheng to practice with, so it didn’t take long before all the dolls in front of him were smashed into pieces. The inexplicable rage in Fang Zheng’s heart, caused by the damned bracelet turning him into a twin-tailed loli, subsided a bit. Hmm, I have to admit, venting a little is sometimes good for the body.
"Hoo..."
Smashing the last struggling doll into pieces, Fang Zheng finally let out a satisfied breath. Then she turned her head and looked at the black-haired girl on the other side.
Although most of the dolls were destroyed by Fang Zheng, a few sneaky ones also tried to approach the black-haired girl. However, the black-haired girl was evidently prepared and decisively summoned two staplers that resembled small pigs, which bit the dolls into pretzels with a crunch.
Indeed, if you’re not skilled enough, don’t take on difficult tasks. She came here alone looking for trouble, so she must have some skills.
"Then, I shall take my leave."
Having fought a sudden battle, Fang Zheng felt much better inside. Since this was someone else’s territory, it wasn’t right for him to stay any longer. So Fang Zheng sheathed his longsword and cupped his fists toward the black-haired girl.
"Mountains won’t change, waters long flow, miss, we shall meet again..."
"Whoosh..."
But before Fang Zheng could finish speaking, he saw the black-haired girl suddenly wave her hand, and the two little pig staplers that were floating beside her flew behind him, surrounding him left and right.
What is this supposed to mean, are you planning to fight me again?
Seeing this scene, Fang Zheng was momentarily stunned, then looked at the black-haired girl in confusion. The black-haired girl only glanced at Fang Zheng, then spoke.
"Follow me."
After saying this, the black-haired girl turned around and left. Fang Zheng was stunned for a moment, then looked at the two little pigs on either side. Sensing Fang Zheng’s gaze, the two little pigs shrank back immediately. They had seen how Fang Zheng dealt with those dolls and knew that although they had some skills, they weren’t a match for this brute. They retreated in a hurry. 𝒻𝑟𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝑛𝘰𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝘤𝘰𝘮
"Um... could you follow our master for a walk? Our master isn’t a bad person..."
"Yes, yes, our master is really kind, she must want to thank you..."
"Well... alright then."
Hearing the two pig familiars speaking, Fang Zheng couldn’t say anything further. He shrugged and followed them. After all, he didn’t have anything to do at the moment, so he might as well follow along and see, maybe something interesting would happen to pass the time...
This forest is indeed quite large. Fang Zheng followed the black-haired girl for a full two hours, leaving the forest only when the sun had set and the round moon had risen, arriving at a Western mansion located deep in the forest.
When I get back, I definitely have to strictly enforce the land laws and stipulate that all land of the Heavenly Dao Palace is nationalized, and private transactions without authorization are not allowed... Damn capitalism...
While considering whether or not to also annex a mountain in this world’s Japan and stake claims to land, Fang Zheng thought about how to revise the national land laws of the Heavenly Dao Palace to avoid repeating mistakes. Although with the current members of Heavenly Dao Palace, it wasn’t necessary. In fact, with the resources of three worlds at his disposal, Fang Zheng could directly reach the ultimate goal of humanity that Marx hoped for. However, he still wanted to take things step by step, because... it wasn’t an easy task.
Lost in these thoughts, Fang Zheng followed the black-haired girl into the Western mansion.
However, just as the black-haired girl opened the door, a tall girl suddenly rushed out.
"Yuzhu, you’re back? Did you get hurt? What happened?"
Who’s this?
Looking at the girl in a school uniform who seemed to be a high school student, Fang Zheng was taken aback. He scrutinized her carefully, confirming he didn’t know her... However, come to think of it, he didn’t know either of these two, and hadn’t seen them in any FATE games or anime, so they were probably just extras.
"It’s nothing."
However, in response to the long-haired girl’s inquiry, Yuzhu just shook her head nonchalantly. Only then did the long-haired girl turn to Fang Zheng.
"Wait a minute, who is she? You actually brought a stranger back?"
"I met her in the forest."
In response to the girl’s question, Yuzhu just explained indifferently and then walked inside, leaving only Fang Zheng and the long-haired girl staring at each other... What is this supposed to mean?
"... Anyway, come inside first."
The long-haired girl seemed accustomed to Yuzhu’s behavior, so she stepped aside and made a gesture.
"Since Yuzhu was willing to bring you here, it shouldn’t be a problem for you to come in. I’m Aoko Aozaki, what’s your name?"
"Me? Hmm..."
Hearing the girl named Aoko Aozaki ask her name, Fang Zheng thought for a moment and then glanced at her twin tails.
"I’m called Red Ponytail, but you can call me Little Hong."
"..."
Obviously, Aoko Aozaki wasn’t a fool; she could tell that Fang Zheng had just come up with a random fake name, but she didn’t care. She just rolled her eyes helplessly and led Fang Zheng inside the mansion.
The interior decoration of the mansion was similar to what Fang Zheng had obtained from the Heavenly Dao Palace, but this one looked older. In plain terms, it looked more like a haunted house.
Or perhaps it really was haunted.
"So, Yuzhu? Did you find anything?"
But Aoko didn’t seem to be in the mood to give Fang Zheng a tour. After bringing him into the living room, she impatiently looked at Yuzhu and asked. In response to Aoko’s question, Yuzhu shook her head again.
"No, this time the other party only used dolls to probe, without showing up, and they don’t seem intent on communicating with us..."
The two of them conversed back and forth, and Fang Zheng stood to the side, listening for a long while, gradually piecing together the story. It turned out that the girl named Aoko Aozaki was a novice magician, and the Aozaki family was the ’owner’ of this land, just like the Tohsaka family in Fuyuki City, controlling the spirit vein of this area.
However, recently, an unknown magician attempted to seize the spirit vein of this land. As the heir, Aoko Aozaki couldn’t just sit back and do nothing, but she herself had only recently started learning magecraft. Therefore, she had enlisted the help of her roommate and teacher, Kuonji Arcueid, to help drive away the magician.
At this point, Fang Zheng finally understood why the other side had attacked him out of nowhere, assuming he was the unknown magician attempting to seize the spirit vein.
But... that shouldn’t be a big deal, right?
After figuring out the entire story, Fang Zheng relaxed. Seizing a spirit vein, he thought it was a big deal, but he was a seasoned Chef Moon who had seen the FATE anime and FZ novels. He hadn’t heard of these two names, so they must be extras in the Type Moon world.
Such a minor issue; if he decided to interfere, wouldn’t it be an easy task?
"... So, Yuzhu, what do you plan to do after bringing her back?"
After Aoko and Yuzhu exchanged views on the current situation, Aoko immediately turned to Yuzhu and asked.
Yuzhu looked at Fang Zheng, who was curiously surveying the surroundings, and calmly replied.
"Help."
"Have her? Wait, she’s just a kid!"
"But she’s much stronger than you."
In response to Aoko’s protest, Yuzhu simply replied casually, instantly leaving her speechless.
"And she intruded into my territory, so she should offer some compensation."
"Well, if you put it that way..."
Hearing Yuzhu’s response, Aoko looked troubled but then turned to Fang Zheng.
"So, Red Ponytail... no, Little Hong, what do you think?"
"I have no objections."
Fang Zheng nodded.
"After all, I’m just idling around, and since I intruded, it’s indeed my fault. If you want me to help, I’d be more than happy to oblige."
Saying this, Fang Zheng extended his hand and patted his chest.
"After all, I’m a champion of justice!"
