He reached out his hand, touched Sakura Toosaka's head with a smile, and then said:

"Xiaoying, go meet someone with Dad Yu in a few days, okay?"

"Hmm~"

Toosaka Sakura nodded obediently - she would never refuse her father's arrangement.

This is completely opposite to her sister Toosaka Rin.

And seeing her like this, Toosaka Tokiomi felt even happier.

Just as he had felt before, both Rin Ying and her sister inherited a part of their lady Zenjo Aoi.

The former is appearance, the latter is character.

This meant that no matter who it was, Tōsaka Tokiomi simply couldn't give it up so easily.

But fortunately, the Matou family just happened to need an adopted daughter.

So--

If I leave Rin behind and send Sakura over.

We can use the protection of the Matou family to ensure her safety.

There is nothing more gratifying than having both daughters alive!

Thinking of this, the man turned around and took down an exquisite rectangular box from the bookcase.

As the fifth-generation head of the Tousaka family, a family of magic, Tousaka Tokiomi still has one thing he must do - that is to participate in the Holy Grail War.

What was stored in the box was one of the things he had prepared in advance.

The man opened the box and saw an old scabbard inside.

The degree of rust seems like it will break at any time.

But even so, anyone who takes a look at it can feel the warmth it radiates. It is an amazing existence.

of course.

Toosaka Sakura had never seen this thing.

So when she first saw it, she poked her head out and asked curiously:

"Dad, what is this?"

Tōsaka Tokiomi, who was in a good mood, did not intend to avoid this question.

He explained in a tactful way: "This is something my father prepared in advance. It is the scabbard of the Excalibur Gallatin sword."

"The scabbard of the Excalibur Gallatin?"

Toosaka Sakura blinked her eyes.

"That sounds amazing~"

"Of course." Tōsaka Tokiomi patted his daughter's head, "I spent a lot of effort to get this back."

"If that doesn't work—"

"Dad will have to go collect other things."

"Then what is Dad going to do with such a powerful thing?" Toosaka Sakura asked, tilting her head.

"..."

Realizing that he seemed to have said too much, Tōsaka Tokiomi coughed lightly a few times.

"Secret."

"Okay." The man pretended to look at his watch, "Sakura, it's time to go to bed."

"Otherwise, I wouldn't be a good boy."

"Eh?! I'm going to bed now!"

After saying this, Toosaka Sakura took one last curious look at the scabbard.

【This is a fateful glance.】

[Tousaka Sakura doesn't know that her magical talent is very strong. 】

[She had no idea that her curiosity about the scabbard alone was enough to transform into magic power through "imaginary numbers."]

[And this magic power affects you who are still sleeping. 】

[You have made a contract called 'Shadow' at this moment. ]

[But Tousaka Sakura knows nothing about this - at least for now. ]

The scabbard lit up?

The little girl blinked.

She didn't know that her life would start at this moment and head in a completely different direction.

266. Family secret, Sakura Tousaka's late-night adventure! (4k)

[Tousaka Sakura was not aware of your presence. ]

[But she did see the flash of the scabbard.]

[This made her a little curious.]

It really lit up.

Toosaka Sakura rubbed her eyes, only to find that the Excalibur Gallatin had returned to normal.

"Eh——?!" The little girl opened her mouth slightly, with a confused look in her eyes.

Of course, Tōsaka Tokiomi would not ignore his daughter's abnormal reaction.

He squatted down and communicated with her with a worried look on his face:

"Sakura, what's wrong?"

"..."

Without much hesitation, Toosaka Sakura stretched out her little finger and pointed at the scabbard lying quietly in the box on the table.

"Dad~"

“It just glowed!”

After hearing his daughter's description, Tōsaka Tokiomi realized that something seemed amiss and asked cautiously.

"Sakura...what is that light? Please explain it to dad in more detail."

"White, yellow, or something else?"

Toosaka Sakura scratched her face, trying hard to recall the scene just now, but found that she couldn't remember it no matter what.

Looking at her like this, Tōsaka Tokiomi realized that this might just be a misunderstanding.

However, he did not blame his daughter. Instead, he reached out and touched Sakura Tohsaka's soft hair.

"It looks like you forgot temporarily, Sakura."

"In that case—"

"Why don't you go to bed first? Maybe you'll remember it when you wake up."

"Yeah~" Toosaka Sakura nodded obediently.

"I see!"

[Tousaka Sakura rarely objects to her father's arrangements.]

[Besides, she really couldn't remember what the scene was like when the scabbard glowed just now.]

[She decided to go to bed first as her father had arranged—maybe she would really remember it when she woke up.]

【She returned to her room.】

[And her mother, Zenjo Aoi, was already waiting for her there with a storybook in hand. ]

【This is Toosaka Sakura's favorite bedtime story time. 】

【She will hear many interesting things during this period. 】

"This is the story of King Arthur."

Zenjo Aoi closed the book on his knees, then looked at his daughter and asked softly:

"Sakura, do you like it?"

"Like it~"

Toosaka Sakura first smiled and nodded, but soon showed a confused expression.

Zenjo Aoi, who loves her daughter dearly, naturally wouldn't notice the contrast between the two.

She lifted up the strands of hair on Sakura Tousaka's forehead and asked gently:

"Sakura."

"You seem... confused about something? Can you tell mom?"

"King Arthur...why would she give up the throne at that time and give it to her sister?"

"She did a great job, didn't she?"

"..."

Zenjo Aoi's expression suddenly became somewhat embarrassed, as if he had thought of some realistic situation.

She completely hid this emotion in her heart and continued to explain the reason to Toosaka Sakura.

"Because King Arthur knew his sister could do better."

"That's why she was so brave to choose to give up the throne."

"Xiaoying, you should also follow her example and be brave."

"Eh--?"

A few blushes appeared on Toosaka Sakura's cheeks.

"I understand! I will try my best!"

"Well." Zenjo Aoi smiled slightly, "Then have a good rest."

"Good~"

Standing at the door, Zenjo Aoi took one last look at her daughter and gently turned off the light for her.

After turning around, she fell into endless sorrow.

[Based on past experience, Toosaka Sakura should fall asleep quickly while lying on the bed. ]

【But today's situation seems a little different. 】

She found herself unable to sleep.

"Why can't I sleep..."

Little Tousaka Sakura tightly grasped the quilt covering her body.

She puffed up her cheeks and shouted like a spell: "Sleep! Sleep! I want to sleep!"

However, the harder Toosaka Sakura shouted, the more she found herself unable to sleep.

Finally, the little girl had no choice but to use the most traditional method.

That's counting sheep!

She closed her eyes and began to imagine herself as a shepherd.

"One sheep... two sheep... three sheep... four sheep... glowing sheep... glowing scabbard..."

"Eh?!"
