Chapter 183 The weather in Fuyuki City is getting colder

After explaining to Mrs. Irisviel and Diarmuid, Kenshin Matou started talking about business. As for what business was, it was naturally the damn Holy Grail War.

"Okay, that's enough of the explanation. Let's get down to business."

Pinching his sister's little hand, and thinking of the remaining enemies including Tohsaka Tokitsugu, the guy who was little Sakura's former father, Kenshin Matou considered his words for a while.

Then he opened his mouth and said:
"We don't have many enemies left who can play with us for a while. One is the current head of the Tousaka family, Tousaka Tokitoki, and the other is Waver Velvet, a student who came from the Clock Tower to prove himself to others."

"Although I have never met Clock Tower student Waver, but... I felt like I knew him from the moment I saw him."

"In that future, I had a good relationship with him. In my heart, he was probably an upgraded version of Matou Kariya. He had some human rights, but not much."

"So I don't have any thoughts about him. Even the Holy Grail can be given to the other party to help the other party's servant realize his wish."

"So that means that the only opponent we have left is that guy Tousaka Tokitoki."

After a pause, he patted the somewhat excited and worried Xiao Xiaoying's shoulder, looked at Mrs. Irisviel who seemed to be in deep thought, and then Matou Kenshin continued:

“Mrs. Irisviel knows about the Tōsaka family. In other words, anyone who pays a little attention to the Holy Grail War will know the history of the Holy Grail War, and will know the three families that are closely related to the Holy Grail War.”

"The Matou family, the Tousaka family, the Einzbern family, Fuyuki City, and the Holy Grail War are closely tied together."

"Now, as the current head of Einzbern, Mrs. Irisviel, you have recognized me. As the seventh head of the Matou family, I should shoulder my responsibilities and unify the three families, so that they can return to their original harmonious and friendly mode."

???

Illya and Sakura, one of them is the young master of Einzbern, and the other is the younger sister of the master of the Matou family. It’s okay that they don’t understand, but Mrs. Irisviel, who grew up under Ahad’s education and is mentally mature.

After listening to Jianchen Matou's words, he was not only confused, but also a little confused.

Mrs. Irisviel knew the history of the three major families in Fuyuki City. She also knew that the ancestors of these three families had a very good relationship and created the Holy Grail War together.

But, what does this have to do with the unification of the three great families?
Are the three great families a divided country, and do they need a peerless hero to emerge to achieve unification?
But the key point is that these three families have no need to unify!

No, it’s not these three families. It should be said that the other two families except the Matou family have no need for unification.

Unification, unification, it sounds good, but...

Isn't this just annexation?

However, after thinking about the current situation of Einzbern, Mrs. Irisviel's resentment towards Kenshin Matou's shamelessness disappeared in an instant.

Einzbern was gone. It was annexed by the Matou family, which was also one of the three great families. But when it came to hatred or dissatisfaction, Mrs. Irisviel didn't have any at all.

It didn't matter whether Einzbern survived or perished, at least not to Mrs. Irisviel.

Whether Illya lives happily or lives miserably and faces the same fate as she once did is very important to Mrs. Irisviel.

Obviously, Jianshen Matou, who played a crucial role in this regard, deserves some preference and different treatment.

"You mean... you want to..."

After a few days of contact, Mrs. Irisviel, who already knew Sakura's identity, looked at Sakura, who was sitting next to Kenshin Matou with a bad look on her face, and spoke hesitantly.

"Yes."

Matou Kenshin, who was holding Sakura's hand, nodded and said, "I'm going to negotiate with the head of the Tohsaka family and ask him to voluntarily withdraw from this Holy Grail War."

"He will definitely regret it by then and apologize to Sakura."

As a qualified brother, Kenshin Matou felt that something was wrong with his sister from the moment she said the four words "Toosaka Tokitoki", but he had to face it eventually.

Before the hatred ferments, and while Sakura is still young, there is still a great chance of healing.

Let’s not talk about Toosaka Tokitoki for now. Mrs. Toosaka Aoi, well, this woman who only cared about her husband and chose her husband, actually we don’t need to talk about her, but the right to make this choice is not in the hands of Matou Kenshin.

Even though Kenshin Matou is Sakura's brother in name and law, he does not have that right.

"Sakura, tomorrow, my brother will go to the Tousaka family to visit the head of the Tousaka family, Tousaka Tokitoki. If you want to go, give me an answer before breakfast tomorrow."

"Don't be anxious. You still have a lot of time to think about it. I respect your decision."

Looking at the little Sakura who was hanging her head and in a bad mood, Matou Kenshin rubbed her head vigorously and added: "In a brother's place, a sister always has the right to regret."

"So, Ying, if you change your mind, you can tell me at any time. I will always support your decision."

……

……

After losing that crazy man Emiya Kiritsugu, the Holy Grail War suddenly became extremely harmonious.

Even Kotomine Kirei, the pervert who had not yet matured and was still in the stage of abnormal development, was dealt with by Diarmuid in advance.

Therefore, Kenneth's departure was smooth, without any surprises. He even met with Toosaka Tokitoki before leaving. It was unclear what they talked about. After all, even the power of technology has its limits. He is not a yellow-haired vampire.

However, judging from Kenneth's livid face and Sora's sinister eyes, the elegance that Tousaka Tokitoki has always adhered to, which comes from the ancestral elegance of the Tousaka family, still hurt the magician who came from the 'big place' to the 'small place' to be gilded.

Although it was Kenshin Matou who frustrated Kenneth and Sora, in terms of external relations, the three ancient families in Fuyuki City are not incapable of maintaining a short-term friendly relationship.

At least Toosaka Tokitoki was upholding the elegance of the Toosaka family. He waited for Kenneth at the airport and saw him off for the last time before leaving Fuyuki City. He felt that the Matou family was still a good family.

At that moment, he thought that it might be a good idea to adopt his former daughter Sakura Toosaka into the Matou family.

With a little joy, Tohsaka Tokichi watched Kenneth and Sora board the plane. He did not leave until the plane that took off from Fuyuki Airport disappeared from his sight.

It seems that the head of the Tousaka family has not yet realized the seriousness of the problem.

Drawing cards, oh no, the Heroic Spirits summoned by the Holy Relics can't be considered drawing cards in any way. By the way, Toosaka Tokitoki seems to have European blood?

He really seems to be a European, with a white face.

What luck...

Compared with Diarmuid, it can be considered excellent.

It was just the lack of information and the golden card of Gilgamesh that gave him too many illusions, making him think that the Masters and Heroic Spirits that Kenshin Matou was dealing with were just a waste of effort.

Just clearing the way for yourself.

This idea will soon be shattered.

How soon? Today!
·
early morning.

Jianchen Matou opened his eyes, but his vision was still a little blurry.

He drank too much tea in Miss Altria's room last night, which made him very energetic when he lay down on the bed. He tossed and turned for a long time and couldn't fall asleep.

Since he couldn't sleep and didn't need to work the next day, he didn't force himself, and after making sure his lovely sister was asleep, he left the room alone.

What happened in Miss Altria's room before going to bed was naturally not something that everyone would like to see. It would take some time before that could happen. In this regard, Miss Altria was terribly serious.

Jianchen Matou never had the habit of forcing the people he loved.

Moreover, he wanted to force...

Well, it seems he does have that ability.

After Emiya Kiritsugu's death, Kenshin Matou, who was supposed to be Miss Altria's new master, naturally signed a contract with Miss Altria and became her master.

Now that he has become Miss Altria's Master, he can undoubtedly exercise the rights of the Master - the right to use Command Seals.

The power of the Command Spell has different constraints on different Heroic Spirits.

Just like poor Diarmuid, with only a Command Seal, he suddenly used the magic-breaking red rose and pierced his own heart during the battle with Miss Altria.

And once, Miss Altria, who was Emiya Kiritsugu's servant, resisted for a while when she was forced by Emiya Kiritsugu to destroy the Holy Grail with the Command Seals in a future without Swordsman Matou.

Although it was only for a moment, compared to Diarmuid who died in an "unclear" way, he was indeed much stronger.

These two heroes are still reasonable.

Uncle Liu was simply cheating.

Once, Matou Kenshin, who was so angry that he fainted after hearing Uncle Liu's words "I am a Heroic Spirit, so I can die", had thought about letting him experience the power of the Command Seals and know who is the boss between the Servant and the Master.

As for the results...

Not to mention.

After opening the window and feeling the morning breeze blowing hard on his face, Kenshin Matou recalled the complicated expression on Mrs. Irisviel's face when she learned about his feud with Kiritsugu Emiya in Miss Altria's room last night.

His reasons for killing Emiya Kiritsugu were all too justified.

It was so serious that even Mrs. Irisviel, who was biased towards Emiya Kiritsugu in her heart, could not say anything against her conscience.

'Sacrifice' for justice or something.

Mrs. Irisviel knew how ridiculous and disgusting this kind of thing was.

Just like she was before Jianchen Matou rescued her;
For the long-cherished wish of the Einzbern family, he "sacrificed" everything he had, even his daughter Illya, just for something he had never seen.

This situation is different from that of Jianchen Matou.

Mrs. Irisviel's "sacrifice" could not even be called a "sacrifice", and there was no reason to even blame Ahad.

Because Mrs. Irisviel is not a human being, but an artificial being, and artificial beings do not have basic human rights.

Compared to a life that can arouse human respect for life, Mrs. Irisviel is more like a toy, a toy created by Ahad with a mission.

It's like a one-time key that only needs to open one lock in its lifetime and will disappear after opening that lock, but no one will blame the worker who made the key.

The only difference is that the artificial human named Irisviel, compared to a cold tool, has human emotions and human perceptions, and is almost no different from humans.

But these are not the key points.

The key point is that this android created for the Holy Grail War was favored by Jianchen Matou, so...

It doesn’t matter whether common sense is talked about or not.

Just a big fist will do.

Of course, sometimes common sense, or reason, still needs to be talked about.

Like last night.

Unlike Kenshin Matou who is heartless, compared to the selfish Matou family head, Mrs. Irisviel, who directly inherited the position of the head of the Einzbern family after Ahad's death, is more like a human being.

Although she had lived in such a cold environment since she was born, Mrs. Irisviel had a warm heart.

This heart allowed her to reduce her misunderstanding and hatred towards Kenshin Matou a lot, although she could not let go of all her hatred and forget Emiya Kiritsugu directly after learning the reason for everything.

In fact, yesterday afternoon, when Mrs. Irisviel saw Illya envying Sakura for having a brother and wanting to call Kenshin Matou brother like Sakura, her heart suddenly tightened.

Personally, Kenshin Matou is Illya's benefactor, helping her escape the fate of being a Holy Grail container and live a happy life as a normal child.

However, when it comes to relatives, Kenshin Matou's feelings for Illya are so complicated that it's hard for Mrs. Irisviel to believe how painful it will be when Illya learns the truth.

The brother who grew up with him, the brother who helped his mother escape the fate of death, and the brother who killed his father.

This kind of thing, this kind of thing...

If Kotomine Kirei hadn't died, he would have been very happy about this kind of thing and smiled happily.

But she is a normal person, not the perverted Mrs. Irisviel. She is just confused and in pain.

There is a measure for everything.

Kenshin Matou had good reasons to kill Kiritsugu Emiya, and Kiritsugu Emiya did do bad things, things that were not in line with being a "partner of justice."

But what is above reason is family affection.

How could Illya forget her father, who put her on his neck in the snow, played with her and competed to see who could find more walnut buds.

How could I forget the only person who could bring me warmth in the cold Einzbern, besides my mother.

That own father.

"call…"

Kenshin Matou closed the window. As the Holy Grail War progressed, the weather in Fuyuki City became increasingly colder.
