The Witcher: The Journey to Transcendence from Marvel...

Chapter 223 The Gift

Once Matou Kariya started talking, she couldn't wait to tell everyone she knew about the Tohsaka residence.

His expression was extremely excited, and his eyes shone with intense desire and eagerness.

He spoke extremely fast, each word seeming to spring urgently from the depths of his heart, as if afraid that speaking too slowly would delay the opportunity for revenge.

His words flowed like a rushing stream, describing in detail the location of the Tohsaka residence, the surrounding environment, possible defensive facilities, and his understanding of Tohsaka Tokiomi's daily routines.

He waved his hands frequently to enhance the vividness of his description, trying to convey his hatred for Tokiomi Tohsaka and his desire for revenge to Wes through this intelligence.

Wes listened quietly to Kariya Matou's story, his expression focused and calm.

As Matou Kariya spoke, a complete picture of the Tohsaka residence and possible course of action gradually formed in his mind. His plan was also being refined, with every detail being carefully considered in his thinking.

He narrowed his eyes slightly, pondering the various possibilities and risks.

His fingers tapped lightly on the table, the rhythm slow and regular.

He planned to send a big gift to the Tohsaka family early in the morning.

The first rays of morning sunlight, like golden threads, spilled over the Tohsaka family's garden, bathing the entire garden in a warm glow.

Tokiomi Tohsaka stood by the window, leisurely gazing at the beautiful scenery outside.

His expression revealed confidence and composure, as if he was fully prepared for the Holy Grail War.

In his view, no one could be Gilgamesh's match; the Hero King's immense power filled him with confidence.

He slightly raised the corners of his mouth, revealing a faint smile.

The coffee cup on the table began to vibrate slightly, and then the whole villa began to shake.

"Earthquake??" This was Tokiomi Tohsaka's first reaction, and a look of confusion appeared on his face.

He put down his coffee cup and felt the vibrations beneath his feet.

The sky suddenly darkened, and the sunlight was blocked by something.

Tokiomi Tohsaka was startled. He quickly ran outside and looked up at the sky.

At that moment, he broke out in a cold sweat.

A meteorite larger than a villa fell straight down from the sky, its enormous shape resembling a mountain about to descend, giving people an irresistible sense of oppression.

"Is this an attack??"

His mind hadn't fully processed what was happening; his eyes were filled with astonishment and disbelief.

He stared blankly at the meteorite in the sky, his heart filled with fear and confusion.

"Idiot." Gilgamesh's angry voice came from the rooftop, filled with rage and disdain.

"Your Majesty." Upon hearing Gilgamesh's voice, Tokiomi Tohsaka reflexively knelt on one knee, awaiting the king's command.

Gilgamesh didn't even glance at Tokiomi Tohsaka; his attention was entirely focused on the approaching meteor.

Tokiomi Tohsaka finally realized what was happening: "Your Majesty, I beg you to intervene."

Golden, gleaming eyes fell upon him, eyes filled with indifference and authority.

Tokiomi Tohsaka lowered his head, not daring to look directly at Gilgamesh.

Golden glitter flew into the air, and countless treasures shot towards the meteorite like meteors.

"Boom! Boom!!" A huge explosion rang out, and the meteorite deviated from its trajectory and began to disintegrate, blasting into countless pieces of rock.

The rubble rained down around the Tohsaka mansion, creating deep craters.

Each piece of gravel created a deep crater in the ground, raising clouds of dust and smoke.

As soon as Jin Shanshan landed back on the roof, his golden figure shone with a majestic light in the sunlight.

He slightly raised his chin, his eyes revealing an arrogant and overbearing demeanor.

However, before he could fully regain his footing, a blazing beam of light shot towards him like lightning.

The beam of light was extremely dazzling, like a destructive beam shot from the sun, carrying a chillingly high temperature and powerful energy.

It was so fast that no one had time to react.

Almost the instant the beam of light appeared, a shield appeared in front of him.

The shield radiated a golden light and was covered with mysterious runes; it was made of the strongest metal.

However, the power of this scorching beam was too great. After holding out for only a few seconds, the shield was shattered into countless fragments like fragile glass.

Fragments flew everywhere, shimmering with golden light in the sunlight.

"Interesting." Gilgamesh's lips curled up slightly, revealing a smile full of interest.

His eyes gleamed with excitement.

A larger, more robust golden shield instantly appeared in his hand.

This shield is more ornate than the previous one, with more complex runes on it.

Not a single mistake, not a single poem, not a single post, not a single piece of content, not a single look!

"Let me have a look at this move." His voice was full of confidence and arrogance; he could easily handle any attack, no matter how powerful.

However, he was always so arrogant that he underestimated the power of this attack.

When the beam struck the shield again, the powerful impact instantly sent Gilgamesh and his shield flying.

The villa's walls were instantly pierced by the enormous impact, sending up a cloud of dust and gravel.

Tokiomi Tohsaka was stunned, his eyes filled with astonishment and fear.

He never imagined that the King of Heroes would be knocked away. His mind went blank, and he didn't know how to deal with the situation.

Just then, Wes appeared in front of him instantly.

[Oh no!] Tokiomi Tohsaka felt a strong sense of crisis.

Wes's attack was aimed at killing him from the start.

"Avada Kedavra eating a melon."

With the instantaneous fatal curse and the close proximity, Tokiomi Tohsaka had no chance of dodging it.

The green light, like a messenger of death, hurtled toward him at breakneck speed.

【Archer, save me!!】Tokiomi Tohsaka activated a Command Spell in despair.

With a flash of light from the Command Seal, a golden figure instantly appeared in front of him.

The fatal curse struck the gleaming golden armor, bounced off, and the green light vanished into thin air.

"Scum!" Gilgamesh's face was grim, his eyes filled with anger.

As a king, being ordered around by a subject was incredibly humiliating to him.

He made no attempt to conceal his killing intent; that powerful aura spread outwards like a surging tide.

Tokiomi Tohsaka immediately knelt down and explained, "Your Majesty, in a moment of panic..." His voice trembled, filled with fear and unease.

With a flick of his right hand, a sword appeared.

The sword emitted a cold light, and in an instant, it pierced through Tokiomi Tohsaka's left shoulder, causing blood to flow everywhere.

Tokiomi Tohsaka dared not resist or utter a sound, silently enduring the sword strike.

He knew that any resistance he might offer could enrage the Hero King and lead to even more serious consequences.
