Humans in Type-Moon, Path of the Heroic Spirit

Chapter 4: Mapo Priest: Would you like a bowl of Mapo Tofu Ramen?
in the afternoon.

In the courtyard of the Tōsaka family, Kamiya Yuu was chatting with Tōsaka Tokiomi.

After discussing the adoption, Kamiya Yu did not take Sakura away immediately, but chose to stay at the Tohsaka family for lunch, allowing her to spend some more time with her family.

After lunch, Kamiya Yu and Tokiomi came to the courtyard to exchange magic, leaving the space for Mrs. Tosaka and her daughters.

"Will the Fourth Holy Grail War be held in half a year?" Kamiya Yu brought up the topic that interested him.

"That's right." Tōsaka Tokiomi nodded, then said elegantly, "Any magician who lives in this land will be inspired by the Holy Grail and chosen as a Master."

"And the Command Seals that appear on the back of your hand like stigmata are the sign of being chosen by the Holy Grail." As he spoke, Tōsaka Tokiomi raised his left hand and showed the side engraved with the three jewel-shaped Command Seals.

"Speaking of which, as an excellent magician, You-kun, you should also have the possibility of being chosen by the Holy Grail."

As if he had thought of something, Tōsaka Tokiomi looked at Kamiya Yu with an inquiring look.

"Perhaps the Holy Grail doesn't like me." Hearing Tokiomi's words, Kamiya Yu smiled slightly, then raised his hands, showing him the smooth backside as if to prove his innocence.

"So far, there are no traces of Command Seals on my body."

"In that case, this is good news for me."

Having solved Sakura's problem, Tōsaka Tokiomi, who was in a good mood, also made a rare joke, "After all, if my opponent is Yu-kun, I will find it very difficult."

"I have no interest in the Holy Grail." Kamiya Yu shook his head, then said softly, "Before the Holy Grail War begins, I will take Sakura out for a while."

To be honest, Kamiya Yu has always kept his distance from the contaminated Holy Grail.

After all, as long as Kiritsugu Emiya joins the battle, the famous scene of the curry stick chopping the Holy Grail will definitely happen.

Unless Kamiya Yu can summon a Servant that can purify the Holy Grail, he will have no choice but to temporarily leave this city where gas explosions often occur after six months.

Kamiya Yu: "It's moist~~－＝≡ヘ(*ω)ノ"

…………

As dusk approached, the orange afterglow scattered on the doorstep of the Tōsaka family.

"From today on, I am your father." Kamiya Yu half squatted down and stretched out his hand to Sakura, who looked uneasy.

"..."

Sakura, who was standing next to Tokiomi, shrank back. She did not touch Kamiya Yu's hand, but just stayed there in a daze.

Although Aoi Tohsaka had explained everything to the Tohsaka sisters in the afternoon, the young Sakura only knew that her parents didn't want her anymore.

Anxiety and fear filled Sakura Tohsaka's heart, but she could only accept her parents' arrangements helplessly.

"Sakura, go." Tōsaka Tokiomi's resolute voice was filled with reluctance.

"..."

As if she had been sentenced to death, Sakura lowered her head silently, the light in her blue eyes gradually dimmed, but her body obediently walked towards Kamiya Yu.

Looking at the black-haired little loli in front of him who had lost her luster, Kamiya Yu sighed slightly in his heart.

To be honest, he didn't want to break up other people's families, but even if he didn't adopt Sakura, Tokiomi would find other magic families.

If Tōsaka Tokiomi had adopted Sakura to his distant relatives, the Edelfeldt family, it would have been fine, but he was afraid of encountering a den of evil like the Matou family.

Now it is a good choice for Kamiya Yu to adopt Sakura.

Moreover, he didn't have to rush into the Matou family to rescue Sakura as planned. Thinking of this, Kamiya Yu took the initiative to hold Sakura's hand, and with the other hand he gently stroked her little head, his voice soft and warm, "Don't worry, I will bring you to visit the Tohsaka family every year."

Feeling the warmth on her head and palms, Sakura subconsciously raised her head, and what came into her eyes was Kamiya Yu's gentle eyes and handsome face.

At this moment, something seemed to dispel the uneasiness in her heart, and her originally dim blue eyes became bright again.

"Hmm..." Sakura nodded gently, responding in a sound as thin as a mosquito's hum.

Seeing the two of them being so harmonious, Tōsaka Tokiomi felt relieved.

However, before leaving, he couldn't help but remind Kamiya Yu, "Yu-kun, Sakura will be in your care from now on. As for your...daughter's luggage, I will have someone send it to Kamiya's house tomorrow."

"Tokiomi, don't worry, I will take care of Sakura as if she were my own daughter."

"But it's getting late now, so I'll take Sakura back first."

After saying goodbye to Tohsaka Tokiomi, Kamiya Yu carried Sakura onto the black and red motorcycle. With the roar of the engine, the two left the Tohsaka family and drove towards Shinto.

.........

The new capital of Fuyuki City.

As soon as Kamiya Yuu parked his motorcycle on the side of the road, he felt a strong burning pain in his right hand. He lowered his head and saw a cross composed of three bright red spears appearing on the back of his white hand.

Is this a Command Spell?

Looking at the three-stroke command seal that suddenly appeared on the back of his hand, Kamiya Yu raised his eyebrows in surprise. He didn't expect that the flag he had set not long ago would be overturned so quickly.

"However, now that I've become the Master, maybe I can summon a Servant who can purify the Holy Grail, and those innocent people who died in the Fuyuki fire can be saved." Kamiya Yu thought to himself as he carried Sakura out of the car.

To be honest, if he was not chosen by the Holy Grail, Kamiya Yu would have planned to take Sakura and leave Fuyuki City temporarily.

Although his strength has reached the level of a first-class servant, he has no way to purify the evil in this world. Even if he stays in Fuyuki City, he can only watch the black mud leak out.

Kamiya Yu: "I can't do anything.jpg"

As for convincing the participants of this Holy Grail War to give up holding the Holy Grail War, Kamiya Yuu thought it was impossible to succeed. He did not have the "Betsutenzui" that was considered the most powerful illusion of a certain yellow-haired man.

After all, almost all the magicians participating in the Holy Grail War have their own wishes, and he can't persuade them to give up with just a few words.

"There are still six months until the Holy Grail War begins. I hope I can find the holy relic that can summon Medea by then."

In Kamiya Yu's impression, there are not many servants who have the ability to purify the Holy Grail. Medea is one of them. Moreover, she is the easiest servant to summon and the one most likely to help him.

Casters like Solomon, Morgan le Fay, and Merlin are either impossible to summon or are purely entertaining.

At that time, forget about helping, just be thankful that you don't cause any trouble for yourself.

Although Kamiya Yu was not completely sure about purifying the Holy Grail, he could only try his best to protect the people living in Fuyuki City from unnecessary disasters.

No matter what, I have lived in Fuyuki City for decades and I still have some feelings for it.

But now, let’s go eat first.

Kamiya Yu held Sakura's hand and strolled along the bustling commercial street. Soon, they arrived at the door of a restaurant.

As I walked in through the curtains, I heard that familiar, joyful voice.

"...Welcome, sir. Would you like a bowl of our special mapo tofu ramen?"
