Zongman: My days as a chaebol in Japan

"Yes," Kotomine Zaki Rei responded like a robot, then turned and left the church.

Chapter 395 Gilgamesh Gets a Double Kill

"Snake?" Gilgamesh saw that Matou Kariya, who was about to die under the bombardment of his Noble Phantasm, was hooked by a chain that suddenly appeared and was taken away from the bombing range. He turned his eyes and saw Rider standing up and carrying Matou Kariya with an unhappy tone in his mouth.

"Ah, although I also want to see these people eliminated, I cannot disobey the Master's orders. Besides, you have already killed his Heroic Spirit Berserke, how about letting him go, Hero King?" Rider said with a smile.

Gilgamesh's face seemed to be a little angry, "How dare you covet the king's prey, you will die here too."

After saying that, a vortex appeared around the rider.

However, with the support of Sakura Toosaka, Rider's strength is not like that of a heroic spirit like Assassin, who would be weak after using a big move and then be killed.

The Fantasy Heart Sound that assassin used to attack Matou Kariya just now is his Noble Phantasm skill. After locking onto the target, he copies a mirror image and then destroys the mirror image. The damage received by the mirror image will be fed back to the target according to the level of the target's magic power.

At this time, Matou Kariya was held in Rider's hand and fell into a deep coma. If one could see inside his body, one would find that Matou Kariya's heart was gone, and now an ugly-looking insect was maintaining the position of his heart.

Assassin just used the imaginary heart sound to directly crush the heart of the mirror image Matou Kariya. In addition, Matou Kariya's own magic circuit is very low, which caused Matou Kariya's heart to shatter directly like the mirror image. Assassin had also sneak attacked Kenneth before, but Kenneth's magic power is also at the level of a real person, and his magic resistance is very high.

After Assassin released the Fantasy Heart Sound, he was about to escape, but was discovered by Lancer who was following him, and was directly hit by the magic-breaking Yellow Rose thrown by Lancer, which instantly made his breath barrier ineffective. Then, Assassin, Berserker and Lancer were frantically bombarded by the Noble Phantasm shot out by Gilgamesh's Treasure of the King.

Lancer was fine as his combat intuition made him retreat immediately. Assassin's escape skill was ineffective because of Yellow Rose, and Berserker's magic power supply was extremely weak because Matou Kariya fell into a near-death state, which made his condition very weak.

As a result, Assassin and Berserker, who were covered by the bombing of Gilgamesh's Noble Phantasm, became the first two heroic spirits to be eliminated in this Holy Grail Game in the explosion.

Back to Rider, seeing the Hero King's actions, Rider moved immediately and stretched out his hand. A white horse with wings on its back appeared, and Rider jumped onto the back of the white horse.

The white horse, carrying her and Matou Kariya who was being carried by her, disappeared into the distance at a very fast speed.

"There is also a miscellaneous cultivator and a wild dog. They are lucky to have survived my attack." After killing the Berserker and the Assassin, Gilgamesh seemed to feel relieved. He did not stop the Rider from escaping, nor did he continue to attack Iskandar and Lancer.

"Hero King, do you want to have a decisive battle with me now?" Iskandar sheathed the sword in his hand and spoke while looking at Gilgamesh in the sky.

When Gilgamesh heard Iskandar's words, he immediately understood the hidden meaning in his words. Iskandar had been fighting with the berserker for so long, and it was not a kingly act for Gilgamesh to come out and take advantage of the situation at this time.

"Hmph, you miscellaneous cultivator, so arrogant. In front of me, everything is nothing. I'll give you one day. Tomorrow, I will personally send you, the miscellaneous cultivator king, away. As for you, wild dog, your fate has long been determined." Gilgamesh snorted coldly at Iskandar, mocked Lancer again, and then controlled Vimana to leave.

In a melee, the offending hero, the Berserker, was eliminated, and one of the seven assassins was also eliminated.

Although it was a sudden attack, Gilgamesh proved his strength.

The devastated land fell into silence. Soon, people from the Security Department arrived and surrounded the main road with their cars. Hisau Maiya supported Emiya Kiritsugu and went in first. The collapsed buildings affected innocent people.

Although Emiya Kiritsugu's facial expression did not change, the anger in his heart was about to erupt, and his murderous intent towards Kenneth and other magicians became more intense.

"Let's go, Maiya, we have more important things to do," Emiya Kiritsugu said to Hisau Maiya, while glancing at the deputy director of the Security Agency who came with him.

The deputy director and Emiya Kiritsugu nodded. He had received instructions from above that within these seven days, all incidents of destruction in Fuyuki City must be excused as natural disasters. There must be no man-made disasters, and they must not be dug into by reporters carrying cameras.

Kiritsugu Emiya also nodded. He could guess the background of the deputy director, but he did not object because it would not affect him. On the contrary, Kiritsugu Emiya would rather have someone to handle such matters, as he himself had no talent for communication.

"Everyone, Fuyuki City has recently started installing more pipes. Please remember the precautions when using the pipes and do not use them at over capacity..."

"The National Security Agency has initially confirmed that this incident was caused by improper operation."

“Once again, I call on…”

Kiritsugu Emiya chose a deserted road and left the scene. Behind him, the deputy director was announcing that the battle of heroes was caused by the explosion of a pipeline due to improper operation.

...

The Matou family.

Sakura Toosaka sat on the back of Pegasus summoned by Rider and returned here with Rider.

After entering the Matou family's house, Rider waved goodbye to Pegasus, and then put down Matou Kariya, who he had been carrying all the way.

"Sakura, it looks like this man won't live long. The life force in his body has weakened by more than half compared to before. His heart is gone, and he's relying entirely on the insects now attached to his heart to maintain the dying fire of life." Rider took a quick check and knew the current condition of Matou Kariya's body.

"How could this be? Uncle Kariya doesn't have any wounds on his body. Could it be that his heart was eaten by bugs?" Toosaka Sakura thought of this and became a little angry. She turned her eyes and waved her hand. Her internal energy sank into the grass. Then, something seemed to be coming out from under the grass.

puff!

An exquisite gem broke out of the ground. It was the gem that Toosaka Sakura had buried underground not long ago, sealing Matou Zouken.

"Rider sister, please set up a barrier to keep pedestrians away," Toosaka Sakura said to the rider beside her.

Although the rider didn't know what Tousaka Sakura was going to do, he did it anyway. The dark temple was set up and the barrier was opened.

The Matou family in Fuyuki City is different from the Matou family in Kyoto. The Matou family in Fuyuki City only has one Matou Zouken and Matou Kariya who ran back by himself. The descendants of the Matou family, such as Matou Tsuruno and Matou Shinji, are all in the Matou Group in Kyoto. Among them, only Matou Tsuruno was told about the Holy Grail Game by Matou Zouken because he had some magic circuits. Unfortunately, Matou Zouken still abandoned Matou Tsuruno.

Matou Zouken lived for a hundred years, but none of his magic skills were passed on to future generations. In other words, except for Matou Yakasuru and Matou Kariya of this generation and Matou Shinji of the second generation, all the direct descendants of the Matou family are called Matou Zouken.

Chapter 396 Flame Warning

Sakura Toosaka opened the seal in the gem, and a red light flew out like lightning, flying out of the Matou family.

Then, a hand made of internal energy grabbed the red light.

Click! Click!

The sound of biting something came from the hand of internal energy, along with the dry and hoarse voice of Matou Zouken.

"Let me go, let me go"

However, Toosaka Sakura's expression did not change at all. Her hand movement changed to pinching with her index finger and thumb, and the red mother insect transformed by Matou Zouken was pinched.

The hand that controlled the internal energy brought Matou Zouken to Matou Kariya, and Toosaka Sakura said, "Grandpa Matou Zouken, who has lived for who knows how long, please take a look at Uncle Kariya's current condition and see if he can be saved."

As she spoke, Toosaka Sakura was worried that Zouken Matou would think he had a chance to escape, so she considerately lit another piece of wood under the queen insect, allowing the queen insect transformed by Zouken Matou to review the familiar plot again.

Matou Zouken let out a shrill scream, and Toosaka Sakura lowered the burning wood a little.

After the scorching temperature faded away a little, Matou Zouken stopped talking. He knew that he could only do as Toosaka Sakura said, otherwise, only fire would greet him.

A sigh flashed across Matou Zouken's mind. Toosaka Sakura's talent was truly top-notch. Her magical powers were unfathomable. Her fire skills that were almost like magic, as well as the magic hands just now, were all things that could only be performed by extremely powerful magicians. And Toosaka Sakura, who was the same high school age as his grandson Matou Shinji, had actually already taken a step that countless magicians longed for.

With a thought of envy flashing through his mind, Matou Zouken began to check the current situation of his disobedient second son.

After this inspection, Matou Zouken was stunned.

"Why did Kariya become like this? Where is the secondary insect I placed at his heart position? Also, why did his heart disappear?" Countless question marks appeared in Matou Zouken's head at this moment.

When Toosaka Sakura heard this, her eyebrows slightly frowned and she flashed a flame as a warning.

“Don’t talk nonsense. I let you out to let you see if Uncle Kariya can be saved, not to listen to your questions.”

Matou Zouken was burned by the flames and instantly came back to his senses, then began to think.

After a while, when Toosaka Sakura was about to extend the flame over again, Matou Zouken hurriedly said, "There is hope, there is hope, Kariya can still be saved."

After hearing what Matou Zouken said, Tousaka Sakura stopped the warning fire.

"Kariye's heart is missing, and the Marking Worm is consuming its own energy to prolong his life, but the Marking Worm's magic power is limited. As long as we can find a heart that matches Kariya's and use magic power to reconnect it, his body will be able to regain life. This is the first method," Matou Zouken quickly said the first method.

The flames danced on her fingers, and Toosaka Sakura continued to ask, "What other methods?"

Matou Zouken didn't dare to keep it a secret, for the sake of his life, "The second method is to use the current method to replenish the magic power of the crested worm in his body, so that he can continue to survive as a magician in the future. It's just very strange that the secondary worm I implanted in Kariya's heart disappeared without a trace."

After listening to this, Toosaka Sakura understood the results of the two methods that Matou Zouken mentioned: one was an ordinary person, and the other was a magician with some magic circuits.

As for the secondary insect inside Matou Kariya's heart, Assassin's fantasy heart sound directly crushed the heart and the insect together.

After getting the plan, Sakura Toosaka waved her hand, the gems on the ground rose up, a whirlpool appeared, Zouken Matou was thrown in again, and the gems were buried under the grass again.

Toosaka Sakura thought about it and took out another gem. This time she engraved an inscription that slowly absorbed magic power. Then she put the gem in Matou Kariya's hand and left a note explaining his current problem with two choices written on it. Then, she asked Rider to disperse the Dark Temple and turned to leave.

Not long after Toosaka Sakura left, Matou Kariya opened his eyes. His eyes were a little dull, and it took him a while to gradually come back to his senses, "Am I still alive?"

Suddenly, a blood-red color appeared in Matou Kariya's eyes, and then, Matou Kariya's voice and tone changed. A slightly old voice appeared, and the tone was a little excited, "Hahaha, the girl from the Toosaka family, although powerful, was kind-hearted after all. She didn't kill me, but just sealed me. She lacked experience and couldn't find that I had just found an opportunity to transfer part of my soul to the bug in Kariya's body."

Obviously, this refers to Zouken Matou, who was re-sealed in a gem by Sakura Toosaka and then buried under the grass. After a hundred years of research, Zouken Matou has mastered the secret technique of splitting his own soul. When he was checking on Kariya's problem just now, he took the opportunity to separate part of his soul without anyone noticing.

After sensing the condition of Matou Kariya's body, Matou Zouken frowned and cursed, "Useless thing, other Masters know to hide in the dark and issue combat orders through the shared vision of Heroic Spirits, but this idiot actually ran to the battlefield of Heroic Spirits by himself."

Picking up the gem that Toosaka Sakura left in Matou Kariya's hand, Matou Zōken quickly recognized the inscription on the gem, "The magic inscription of the jewel jar? Could it be that the girl from the Toosaka family has inherited the jewel jar? Her talent is enviable, and her luck is also ridiculously good."

After standing up and putting the gem into his pocket, Matou Zouken was about to throw away the paper. The next moment, the blood-red color in his eyes disappeared, and a confused and sober look returned.

"Father, I didn't expect that you would possess your soul into my body. I will put an end to your evil wish for eternal life." Matou Kariya's voice returned to normal, and his soul regained control of his body.

After all, this body belongs to him, and the degree of fit is 120%. Although Matou Zouken's soul is powerful, it is ultimately a separated part. Under Matou Kariya's strong will, it is directly suppressed into the depths of his spirit.

After carefully looking at the two methods in his hand, tightly grasping the gem in his pocket, and feeling the strange feeling at the position of his heart, Matou Kariya staggered back to the house. He would wait until three days later when the Holy Grail Game was over, and then Toosaka Sakura would come to solve his heart problem.

Matou Kariya ignored the instigation of his father Matou Zouken, who had been imprisoned by the pursuit of eternal life, in his spiritual world. Instead, he mocked and fought back, "Huh? Eternal life, you mean that my grandfather, my grandfather's father, and my grandfather's grandfather are all you, is that what you mean? Whenever I think of this, I feel that my birth was a mistake, it's disgusting."

Chapter 397 Director Ken was attacked again

Day 4 of the Holy Grail Game.

Waver woke up Iskandar who was sleeping soundly early in the morning.

"Berserker, wake up! We are going to find someone to form an alliance with today." Weber stretched out his hand to shake the sleeping Iskandar and told him his plan.

Weber didn't know if there was something special about his Heroic Spirit. With a sufficient supply of magic power, sleep, a low-level method of restoring magic power, seemed unnecessary. However, his Heroic Spirit seemed to simply follow the same routine as humans. The problem was that Iskandar was no longer a human being, he was a Heroic Spirit.

Iskandar opened his eyes, stood up, yawned, and said, "Alliance? The King of Conquerors does not need allies. He just needs to conquer them and let them join my army, right?"

Although Waver admired Iskandar's magnanimity and agreed with his statement, the fact was that the golden warrior's fighting power was amazing. The dazzling bombing attack of the treasure made Waver deduce that even Iskandar with his inherent barrier would not be Gilgamesh's opponent.

Therefore, the decisive battle of kings will be held in the evening, and now Weber is anxious to find someone to form an alliance with.

And the most suitable one is the Tohsaka family, one of the three great families.

When Waver saw the Tohsaka sisters and the British knight girl together that day, he deduced that they must have a very good relationship, or even formed an alliance. In this way, the Tohsaka family may have two powerful heroic spirits.

Waver has not seen Saber's full combat power, but the identity of that Lancer is the Irish warrior Diarmait-Oudina, who has strong combat power and record. Saber directly suppressed him during the battle, so you can imagine how powerful Saber is.

Coupled with the King's Banquet that day, I think there is a great chance that Saber's Master will agree to the alliance. After all, they all want to win the Holy Grail Game in the end, and it would be best to have one less competitor.

Weber even had a very detailed plan. If the knight girl hesitated, he would go to the Toosaka sisters to lobby them. Also at the King's Banquet, Toosaka Rin told Weber that she had obtained his gem magic and some related gifts from Jewel Old Man, one of the monarchs of the Clock Tower, so she had some connection with the Clock Tower.

I think letting the Tohsaka sisters do the lobbying could increase the chances of success in forming an alliance.

Weber's plan was a good one, but Iskandar did not agree. His pride as the King of Conquerors made him unable to accept that he was seeking an alliance out of fear of being defeated.

"My Master, since you have chosen to summon me as your Heroic Spirit, please believe me. I, Iskandar, the King of Conquerors, will fight for you until the last moment. The glory of conquest will be with you. Now, let's go to the library first. I have a new conquest plan." Iskandar stood up, put his hands on his hips, grabbed Weber and walked outside.

Weber's protest was ultimately defeated by Iskandar's suppression.
