People in Type-Moon start from adopting Sakura

……

"Okay, the contract has been drawn up. Master Tousaka, please come and inspect it."

"If there are no problems, we can sign it."

Because he had prepared in advance before coming, Luo Wei acted very quickly. He had drafted the magic essay just ten minutes after Tōsaka Tokiomi took the parchment.

Then, Luo Wei pushed the parchment scroll covered with dense Latin words written with mercury in front of Tōsaka Tokiomi and reminded him that he could check and sign it next.

"it is good."

Seeing that Luo Wei moved so quickly, Tohsaka Tokiomi couldn't help but feel a little surprised, but when he thought that the other party came prepared this time, he didn't think it was strange.

Picking up the parchment scroll, Tōsaka Tokiomi's eyes kept scanning it, carefully examining the magic essay composed of countless rows of densely packed Latin text.

Among magicians, the common language used in constructing magic essays is French or Latin, which serves as a standard.

Because there are many differences in the meaning and grammar of certain words in the Far East or English words, if a contract is written in these two fonts, there will undoubtedly be many loopholes, which will easily allow people to exploit them.

French and Latin are more rigorous, so they are more suitable. Due to certain historical reasons, Latin is more commonly used among the mage nobility than French, seemingly because it better demonstrates status and accomplishment.

In order to reassure Tōsaka Tokiomi and avoid unnecessary trouble later, Luo Wei asked an old butler in the family who was good at Latin to teach him to write a contract template in Latin before coming.

As for whether Tōsaka Tokiomi could understand Latin, he didn't have to worry about it.

After all, Tōsaka Tokiomi was a mage noble, and he valued his noble status. So, how could he not understand the Latin commonly used by the old nobles? He must have already mastered it.

And things turned out just as Luo Wei had expected. After carefully examining the magic essay in his hand several times and repeatedly pondering the words in it and still finding no problems, the serious expression on Tōsaka Tokiomi's face finally relaxed a little.

Just as Luo Wei said, everything about this contract was very clear, and no matter how he checked it, there was no problem with it.

The contract roughly reads: [As adoptive parent, Rowe Crowley will adopt Sakura Tousaka on behalf of the Crowley family and make her their heir, inheriting the family magecraft seal and guiding her on the path of magic. From then on, the Tousaka family will no longer have any authority over Sakura Tousaka, and will not use the identity of a relative to contact her or induce her to do anything that would harm the Crowley family. The contract also emphasizes that as long as Rowe does not appoint another heir, Tousaka Tokiomi will not have the right to reclaim Sakura Tousaka's custody.]

No matter from which angle you look at it, this contract is very clear. It not only makes guarantees, but also leaves a way out for both parties. If Luo Wei really wants to go back on his word at that time, even if it means violating the contract and appointing another heir, he will be eligible to take back the custody of Sakura Tohsaka at any time. This is not a bad thing.

After confirming the contract, Tōsaka Tokiomi no longer hesitated. He cut his finger and wrote his name directly on the specific area of the scroll, and then returned the contract scroll to Rowe.

"No problem, Master Crowley, let's sign it."

"I know."

Hearing this, Luo Wei nodded slightly, then took out a knife from his pocket, cut his finger, and left his blood and fingerprints on the scroll, and wrote his name on it.

When the two signed the contract, both Luo Wei and Tōsaka Tokiomi could clearly feel a special and invisible mysterious power acting on them. This meant that everything was settled and the contract had come into effect.

Feeling the effect of the contract that had already taken effect on him, Tohsaka Tokitoki, knowing that the matter had been accomplished, showed a sincere smile on his face.

It’s stable, everything is stable!!

Now his little daughter can display her talents in a suitable environment and can pursue the path of magic as she pleases.

For a father like him, is there anything more gratifying than this news?

At the same time, because of the relationship with Sakura Toosaka, Tokiomi couldn't help but look a little kinder when he looked at Luo Wei.

No matter from which aspect, he could feel the other party's sincerity. Even the magic essay contest was intended to give him a great advantage. This made Tōsaka Tokiomi admire in his heart that he was worthy of being a noble of the Clock Tower. He was impeccable in terms of morality and sincerity.

Compared to Tōsaka Tokiomi's inner self-admiration, Luo Wei didn't think there was anything wrong with this.

Took advantage?

Haha, how can you get a bargain so easily? Every gift God gives you has a hidden price tag. Sometimes, the delicious food you eat with great joy is actually a poison bait that makes you let your guard down.

Tōsaka Tokiomi, I will take your daughter in for the time being. As for you... you should first think carefully about how to survive the war in a few months.

They had different thoughts in mind, and finally, the two of them shook hands with smiles on their faces in completely opposite moods.

"The contract is now officially established, Master Tōsaka. Now, we can discuss the formal adoption, right?"

"Of course, Master Crowley, any time. You are Sakura's guardian now."

Holding Luo Wei's hand tightly, Tōsaka Tokiomi said with a radiant face: "Under your guidance and training, I believe that Sakura will be able to fully develop her talents and walk happily on the path of truth."

"Of course, of course. Then, could Master Tōsaka accompany me to meet Sakura?"

Luo Wei nodded slightly, then pretended to be worried and said, "If a stranger like me suddenly approached and mentioned adoption, the child might be very resistant."

"Of course. Compared to embarking on the path of seeking truth, a child's momentary impulse is nothing. She will understand in the future."

Tōsaka Tokiomi spoke as a matter of course.

As a magician and the head of the family, he would not change his mind once he decided to do something, and he would not care about his daughter's feelings.

From beginning to end, he never even asked what Sakura's mother, Aoi Tousaka, thought.

So, magician...

They are really a group of monsters disguised as human beings.

The incomprehensible three views make people feel even more disgusted...

Luo Wei sighed inwardly.

……

Soon after, they were in front of the gate of the Tohsaka family courtyard.

As a mother, Aoi Tousaka looked at Sakura with eyes full of reluctance.

She walked up to her daughter, then stretched out her hand and gently touched her tender face, full of maternal love and reluctance.

Compared to Tōsaka Aoi's sadness, Tōsaka Tokiomi's attitude as a father was completely different. A smile appeared on his face, his tone filled with joy as he stood before Luo Wei, continuing to speak of his desire for the path of magic and his goals as magi.

As for the reluctance of Tousaka Aoi behind him, it was just an insignificant matter in his eyes, because he knew that what he was doing now was truly right, compared to the behavior of delaying his daughter's future and possibly bringing disaster to her by restricting her own personal feelings.

Although as a father, he also had some indescribable feelings in his heart at the moment when he sent his daughter away with his own hands, Tōsaka Tokiomi knew that compared with the future and happiness, it was all worth it.

"Dad, are you really going to give my sister to someone else?!"

After learning that Tohsaka Tokiomi was going to adopt her sister to someone else, Tohsaka Rin didn't have time to change her clothes. She ran out of the snow in a hurry with her bare feet, looking at her father in confusion.

"..."

To this, Tōsaka Tokiomi did not answer, nor did he scold his daughter for her rudeness. He just raised his hand slightly and then told his wife to take her back.

Compared to her sister, Sakura Toosaka, who already knew her fate, was not as excited as expected. She tilted her head, then looked at her father in confusion and asked.

"I'm going to be adopted by big brother, which means... Mom and Dad don't want Sakura anymore?"

"cherry--!!"

Hearing this, Toosaka Rin, who was about to take Rin away, was stunned. Even Toosaka Tokiomi's calm expression changed drastically.

"Ying, don't say that. Your father didn't abandon you. He just sent you to a more suitable environment."

Before Tokiomi Tōsaka could lose her temper, Tōsaka Aoi, as a mother, suddenly spoke to comfort her daughter.

Although as a mother she was reluctant to send her daughters away, she was also very clear about the physical conditions of her two daughters and her husband's attitude. Tohsaka Tokiomi also explained to her the problems with Sakura and Rin.

So she understood that even if Luo Wei didn't come to propose adoption today, Tōsaka Tokiomi would take the initiative to send Sakura to other magic families.

The other party could be the Matou family, a magic family that has a relationship with the Tōsaka family and is one of the three great families, and has settled in Fuyuki City, or it could be the Edelfeld family, a Finnish family with whom they have ancestral connections.

This time the separation between mother and daughter was inevitable after all.

"cherry!"

Taking advantage of her mother's distraction, Toosaka Rin swung her arms to break free from her mother's grip, then used her agile body to bypass Toosaka Aoi and ran in front of Toosaka Sakura.

Even though she knew that this matter was already a foregone conclusion, as an older sister, how could she allow her sister to be taken away by a stranger?

So all we saw was that Toosaka Rin held Toosaka Sakura's wrist tightly, protecting her behind her, then she opened her arms and used her small body as the last barrier to block Luo Wei.

In response to this, after seeing Toosaka Rin's resentful look, Luo Wei shook his head helplessly.

Toosaka Rin's behavior is normal. After all, she doesn't know Toosaka Sakura's original fate, and she doesn't know that what he is doing now can be regarded as redemption for her sisters.

In the eyes of a little girl of this age, she only knows that she is the evil person who took her sister away, so it is natural for her to feel unhappy or complain about it. Luo Wei naturally would not bother with her.

"Rin! Stop messing around and get back off!"

Instead, he stopped Tōsaka Tokiomi from scolding Rin for her rudeness and forcibly separated them.

"Master Crowley, I'm sorry to have embarrassed you..."

The scene before his eyes made Tōsaka Tokiomi feel a little embarrassed.

"I understand, Master Tohsaka. After all, they have a deep sisterly bond. Now they are forced to separate because of an outsider like me, so it's natural for them to be reluctant."

"But there's no need to be so pessimistic. I'm not an unkind person. It just so happens that due to certain things, I have to stay in the Far East for a while.

In that case, I will temporarily settle down in Fuyuki City. During this time, if Rin and Mrs. Tosaka Aoi miss Sakura, they can come visit at any time."

Luo Wei smiled slightly, then pretended to think for a moment, and then proposed a reasonable plan for them.

Originally, he also wanted to find an excuse to stay in Fuyuki City for a while and prepare for the upcoming show.

Since the current situation is so suitable, he doesn't mind borrowing the deep affection between the mother and daughter to put on a relatively reasonable disguise for himself.

Of course, with his abilities, he could also take Sakura away directly after negotiating with Tōsaka Tokiomi and signing the compulsory magic essay contest, and then come back without anyone noticing. After all, as an alchemist, it is very easy for him to make some magic costumes that can hide the aura.

But now it seems there are better options.

"Is it really possible?"

After hearing what Luo Wei said, a faint light suddenly flashed in Aoi Tohsaka's eyes which had been distraught.

"of course."

Luo Wei nodded slightly, then turned his head to look at the sulking Tousaka Aoi and the silent Tousaka Sakura sisters, and asked with a soft smile.

"What do you think?"

"..."

Toosaka Rin was stunned, her eyes filled with disbelief.

However, the original hostility was indeed visibly reduced at this moment, and it was obvious that Luo Wei's words had worked.

"After all, he's just a child..."

Seeing this, Luo Wei said silently in his heart.

"Well...um, can I still play with my sister in the future?"

Toosaka Sakura looked timidly at Luo Wei in front of her, her words filled with desire, and her posture was adorable.

"Of course."

In this regard, Luo Wei also gave a guarantee.

"Yes! Thank you, big brother."

Finally, with Luo Wei's guidance, the originally melancholy farewell became less sad, and the sisters who were about to part hugged each other tightly with tears in their eyes.

Seeing this, Luo Wei shook his head and raised the corners of his mouth slightly.

Then, he turned his head to look at Tohsaka Tokitoki who was standing nearby and also watching all this.

"Well, Master Tohsaka, please take care of me during my stay in Fuyuki City," said Luo Wei.

"of course."

Tōsaka Tokiomi nodded. Of course he wouldn't refuse such a small matter, but...

"I wonder if there is any important matter that has Master Crowley staying in the Far East?" he asked curiously.

"Well, it's a long story. This time I came to the Far East not only to adopt Sakura, but also to visit some friends along the way, so I'll be staying for a while."

"So you're visiting a friend..."

Hearing this, Tōsaka Tokiomi nodded, and his eyes began to move subtly towards the back of Luo Wei's hand.

Seeing that the three bright red marks did not appear on the back of his hand, he breathed a sigh of relief, and a huge stone in his heart fell at this moment.

"Is that so... Then I wish you all the best, Master Crowley. As long as you're still in Fuyuki City, if you need anything, you can always come to the Tosaka residence to find me."

"Thank you for your generosity, Master Tousaka. However, it's getting late, so I won't bother you any further."

Luo Wei said goodbye: "I'm going to take Xiaoying back first."

"Ok."
