Purple is a magical color. It can be quiet, cold, depressing, or enchanting.
However, ordinary purple can only interpret one or two such artistic conceptions. Only the purple in front of Shinji can perfectly blend three different styles together, giving people a strong impact.
The owner of this color is none other than the new member of the Matou family, the Servant summoned by Matou Sakura—Rider, Medusa.
The discovered female servant followed the shadows and came to Shinji and the others.
Shinji smiled and asked, "Did Sakura ask you to come?"
"Yes." Medusa nodded slightly, still adhering to her principle of being quiet and cold.
"She's home now."
"yes."
"I want to ask you a favor."
"Master Shinji, please speak."
"Help me keep an eye on the family over there who has set up the barrier. If they make any unusual movements, tell Sakura."
"But the Master—"
Medusa did not agree immediately, but looked a little hesitant.
It was this hesitation that made Shinji smile with satisfaction. It seems that Sakura and Medusa get along very well. Medusa has begun to consider Sakura and even has a higher priority than me, the successor of Perseus. This is the most ideal master-servant relationship.
"You don't need to worry about Sakura. I'm here with you. Even if something unexpected happens, I can call you through the Command Seals. I will replenish the used Command Seals for her, don't worry. I still have six-stroke Command Seals left over from the previous Holy Grail War, which are enough for consumption."
Shinji rolled up his sleeves and took off the holster of his "God of War" to reveal the red mark on his arm.
"If you're still worried, you can ask Sakura through the connection between master and servant."
"No need." Medusa shook her head. "Master Shinji has thought it through very carefully. I have no reason to refuse."
"Don't add 'young master', and don't call Sakura 'Master'. I don't believe Sakura hasn't told you this before." Shinji corrected.
"Ma-Ying said it, and I forgot to change it."
"Next time, don't forget that we are not your two sisters. We don't have so many rules, and we won't bully you. You don't need to be so respectful."
"Sister?" Medusa was momentarily distracted, "Shen Ershao—"
"Forgot again?"
"Shinji, do you know my two elder sisters?"
"For some special reasons, I understand you three sisters better than my ancestor. To be honest, from my perspective, it is really hard to understand how you get along with Stheno and Euryale. If it weren't for the choice they made in the end, I would have thought that the relationship between you was very bad."
Phorcys, the god of the sea, had three daughters: the eldest daughter, Stheno (the daughter of strength), the second daughter, Euryale (the daughter of flight), and the third daughter, Medusa (the daughter of domination). Because she angered Athena, Medusa was exiled to the "Invisible Island" near the Golden Apple Island.
The two elder sisters were so concerned about their younger sister that they volunteered to be exiled with Medusa and lived together on the "Invisible Island". Because of Athena's frame-up and curse, the three sisters were slandered as terrible monsters. The name "Gorgon" (horrible creature) also began to spread at this time, attracting countless heroes to fight against them.
Among the three sisters, Stheno and Euryale were not good at fighting. In order to protect her sisters, Medusa kept killing the heroes who came to attack them. Finally, she went crazy and even killed the two sisters she was supposed to protect, turning into a real terrifying monster. Until her death, the two sisters never regretted their choice.
"Even so, it's still hard for me to accept the way your two sisters treat you. I'm also a brother, and sisters are meant to be pampered, not bullied."
"My elder sister and my younger sister are training me in this way because I am different from my elder sister and not as perfect." Medusa explained.
Stheno and Euryale are the embodiment of men's longings, and are "completed goddesses". Their bodies are constant, and they will not grow or age. Only Medusa is different, and she will gradually grow over time. In return, she has also obtained powerful petrifying magic eyes and extremely high mobility as compensation.
Because of the difference in body size, Medusa was often bullied by her two sisters, for example, they forced her to wash clothes, sucked her blood, etc. She looked like Cinderella's two stepmothers' sisters.
Perhaps in Medusa's eyes, being bullied by her sister is natural, but in the eyes of Shinji as a modern man -
"Perfect, perfect. Not long ago, I just discussed with someone what is aesthetics. One of the core points is that aesthetics is popular and the standards will change with the passage of time. In your era, the so-called perfection might be like your sister. In fact, thousands of years of human history seem to be dominated by lolita. However, the standards have changed in the past hundred years. Although the lolita type like your sister is not outdated, the mainstream of today's society has become someone like you. If you don't believe me, you can ask Ying to find some fashion magazines for you. The photos of the models there are enough to explain everything. By the way, I personally prefer your figure with a convex front (haha) and a curved back (haha), so there is no need for you to feel sorry for yourself."
"real?"
Medusa's tall and plump body trembled violently, fully showing her inner unrest. Whether she was alive or dead, she had never heard such comments.
"Of course, I swear in the name of my ancestor Perseus." Shinji answered without hesitation, "Next time you see your two sisters, you can hold your head high and tell them that you are beautiful and that you are no worse than them. If they dare to laugh at you or bully you, just come to me and I will take care of them. I can't say about other gods, but I can beat ten of them like Stheno and Euryale."
Medusa was amused by Shinji's exaggerated statement and curled her lips: "In that case, I can only stand on the side of the two elder sisters."
"Sisters are still very close." Shinji was not surprised. "Well, let's have another mythical duel, the new three sisters versus Perseus' successor. This time there won't be so many external influences, and there won't be a need to decide life and death."
"Okay, if there is such an opportunity." Medusa nodded happily.
"Then let's go first. By the way, although wearing an eye patch does not affect your movements, it still hinders surveillance. Let me help you modify it."
Shinji said as he stretched out his finger and pointed at the center of the eye patch. With a flash of blue spirit particles, the eye patch that covered the upper half of his face disappeared, replaced by a pair of purple-framed glasses.
Behind the glasses, a pair of beautiful golden eyes enhanced Medusa's overall temperament a lot.
"This looks much more comfortable. This is how Sister R should be."
