Paradise: Ready Player One

This allowed Chen Ming to appreciate Skaha's smooth legs that were both powerful and feminine.

To be honest, there are too many highlights, it is really hard to see.

For Chen Ming's slightly presumptuous gaze, Skaha seemed very tolerant, and even showed it generously. Perhaps in her mind, Chen Ming's gaze was the greatest compliment to her beauty.

By the way, the title of master craftsman was requested by Skaha.

After that battle, Chen Ming not only gained a lesson, but also gained a teacher.

Just when Scathach was about to continue to say something, Nadeko ran over and said with a worried face.

"Brother, Rin and Sakura haven't come to see me these days, did something happen?"

Because of Chen Ming's injury, Nadeko's attention was focused on him these days.

When Chen Ming had almost recovered from his injuries, Nadeko remembered her two little friends, and felt a little worried.

Chapter 257 Tragic Life

Hearing Nadeko's words, Chen Ming probably guessed what happened.

Calculating the time, it is indeed time to reach this plot point.

Seeing Nadeko's worried look, Chen Ming got up and rubbed her little head and said.

"Then go and see what's going on."

A well-behaved and obedient girl like Tohsaka Sakura really shouldn't suffer such bad luck.

"Um"

Nadeko nodded vigorously, the worries in her heart dissipated at this moment, she believed that Chen Ming could handle everything well.

The arrival of a new servant made the rest of the candidates who were preparing to participate in the "Holy Grail War" anxious.

Among them was Tohsaka Tokiomi.

He originally planned to spend more time with his wife and children at home during these days, but now he can only give up this idea.

As one of the three royal families who created the "Holy Grail War", Tosaka Tokiomi knew very well that other candidates would definitely remove him from the "Holy Grail War" without hesitation if given the opportunity.

At the same time, as the manager of the leylines of Fuyuki City, there is no "big tree" more attractive than Tohsaka Tokiomi himself.

Now there are masters other than the "Three Royals" who have been born. For his own safety, he must summon servants as soon as possible.

So after finishing the matter at hand, Tosaka Tokiomi and Kotomine Kirei left home.

And after learning that Tosaka Tokiomi was not at home, Kariya Matou, who had just returned from abroad, finally couldn't hold back, and wanted to meet his beloved childhood sweetheart.

Speaking of which, the life of this person is also a tragedy in capital letters.

Because of Matou's family's inheritance of magic, Matou Kariya rejected magic very much, and felt an innate sense of inferiority in his heart, so that he voluntarily withdrew from the love scene, and gave his childhood sweetheart Aoi Tohsaka to what he thought was even more important. Tohsaka Tokiomi who has the ability to bring happiness.

In fact, if Kariya Matou didn't take the initiative to withdraw, he would still be with Aoi Tohsaka very likely.

Because Matou Kariya and Tosaka Aoi's childhood sweethearts were actually arranged by Matou Zouken.

Long before the Tosaka family, the Matou family discovered the excellent genetic qualities of the Chancheng family.

There is a good chance of breeding excellent offspring.

Facts have also proved this.

But don't think that Matou Kariya's emotional performance is too cowardly just because he voluntarily retreats.

But if the magic form of the Matou family can be a little normal, it is impossible for Matou Kariya to give up Aoi Tohsaka so easily. Who can accept bringing his beloved into the wormhole to spend his life?

Both were born in a famous family of magic, Matou Kariya did not inherit the thinking that a magician should have.

But even though Aoi Tohsaka married into the Tohsaka family, Matou Kariya still took care of their mother and daughter in his own way. With a delicate heart, he was very clear about Rin and Sakura's respective preferences.

Every time he comes back from other places, he will give the children favorite gifts, making him, an uncle, deeply loved by Rin and Sakura.

Originally, it was enough for Matou Kariya to keep silently guarding his beloved by his side.

But Tosaka Tokiomi adopted Tosaka Sakura to the Matou family.

Outsiders don't know what's going on with Matou's family, doesn't he?

After finally escaping from Matou's house, she learns that Tohsaka Sakura, whom she considers her own, has been sent to the wormhole.

One can imagine how Matou Kariya resented Tohsaka Tokiomi who caused all this at that time.

But he couldn't tell Tohsaka Aoi about the essence of Matou's magic, because Tohsaka Aoi also agreed to the act of adopting Tohsaka Sakura.

Matou Kariya couldn't bear to let his beloved bear such a crime.

At the same time, he also believes that he is also partly responsible for it. If he hadn't left Jiantong's house, this kind of thing might not have happened.

In the end, Kariya Matou returned to the Matou House and made an exchange with Zouken Matou. If he could win the Holy Grail, the other party would return Sakura to the Tohsaka House.

For this reason, Matou Kariya, who had never systematically studied magic, asked Matou Zouyan to use the engraving worm for himself.

Even at the cost of life, there is a possibility of victory.

Matou Zouken originally planned to watch Matou Kariya lead a miserable life as a traitor, but Matou Kariya made such a heroic self-sacrifice that did not conform to Matoism.

I don't know if witnessing this kind of behavior made Matou Zouken recall his original self, which gave birth to a surge of anger.

With a mischievous mentality, he asked Matou Kariya to add an additional attribute of "madness" when summoning servants.

If this is not the case, maybe Kariya Matou will have a different ending.

But in the final analysis, no one asked Matou Kariya to do so.

As a result, all his pain can only be swallowed by himself, those who don't know laugh at him and ignore him, and those who know take pleasure in it, and in the end he will die forever.

The reason for such a fate is actually due to Matou Kariya's own luck to a large extent.

The lucky value of this bit is rarely able to reach a negative number.

But the current Kariya Matou has not experienced all of this, and is still a young man who seems a little cynical.

After finally finding Aoi Tohsaka who was relaxing in the park, she pretended to meet her by chance and raised her hand to say hello.

"sunflower"

Hearing this familiar voice, Aoi Tohsaka raised her head and smiled happily.

"Long time no see, Kariya"

It would be wrong to say that Tohsaka Aoi has no affection for Matou Kariya, but this affection is more of a family affection.

Aoi Tohsaka, who was a little older, regarded Matou Kariya more as his younger brother.

"You're back from a business trip? It's been a long time this time."

Sensing the concern in Tohsaka Aoi's words, Matou Kariya felt a burst of warmth in his heart.

While the two reunited after a long absence were talking, Tohsaka Rin, who was playing by himself not far away, noticed Kariya Matou, who hadn't seen him for a long time, and ran over happily.

"Uncle Kariya, welcome back"

"Xiao Lin"

"You bought me a present again?"

Rin Tohsaka, who is still young, doesn't know what it means to be polite, especially in front of those who love her.

"You can't be so rude, Sakura."

Aoi Tohsaka let out a little dissatisfaction.

But obviously because of the presence of Matou Kariya, Tohsaka Rin, who knew that someone would protect him, was much more courageous. He was not frightened by Tohsaka Aoi, and his eyes were still full of expectation.

Matou Kariya, who had been prepared for a long time, took out the gift, and looked at Rin Tohsaka who was so excited after receiving the gift, he couldn't help showing an old father's smile.

It was only when Matou Kariya took out the gift prepared for Tohsaka Sakura that he realized that the two sisters who were inseparable were now only one person left, and asked in doubt.

"Where's Sakura?"

Upon hearing this, the smile on Rin's face disappeared instantly.

It was the expression of a child's brain stopping thinking after being forced to accept something incomprehensible.

"Sakura...is no longer here"

Matou Kariya was taken aback for a moment, and turned to look at Tohsaka Aoi, only to hear her subconsciously avoiding her gaze, lowering her head and explaining.

"Sakura is no longer my daughter and Rin's younger sister"

Aoi Tohsaka paused for a moment, and told Kariya Matou the most unacceptable fact.

"...Sakura went to Matou's house"

"why!"

Matou Kariya stood up suddenly, the scar on his heart was torn open, and unspeakable fear welled up in his heart.

"Don't you know why the Matou family needs a child with magic aptitude?"

Tohsaka Aoi's slightly questioning words made Matou Kariya suddenly lose his ability to speak, and he could only ask over and over again.

"Do you really want to?"

But obviously, Matou Kariya didn't know that Tohsaka Aoi was no longer the Tohsaka Aoi he knew.

After the other party married into the Tohsaka family, his way of thinking has gradually become more like that of a magician.

What's more, this was Tohsaka Tokiomi's decision.

Matou Kariya, who had already left the magic world, could not change this decision, nor did he have the ability to do so.

But the moment he turned to leave, he had already decided that even at all costs, he would drag Tohsaka Sakura out of that abyss.

Chapter 258 Rescue

The old mansion of the Matou family

Eerie and treacherous, lacking the atmosphere of human habitation.

If it weren't for the flickering lights that can still be seen in the house, it would make people wonder whether there are still people living here.

But don't look at the fact that the inheritance of the Matou family is about to be cut off, as long as Matou Zouyan is still alive, the Matou family will still be a famous family in the magic world, and is qualified to occupy the largest spiritual vein in Fuyuki City.
