But...for a king like Artoria, she would never decide a matter based on her personal likes and dislikes. As long as it could bring benefits to her people, Artoria would not mind making friends with the other party even if the other party was full of evil.
If it will bring disaster to her people, even if the other party is a saint or an angel, Artoria will not hesitate to swing her sword at him.
Therefore, even her perception of the master-servant pair of Gilgamesh could be said to be very bad.
But Artoria still walked silently behind Gilgamesh and made a gesture to advance and retreat together with him.
He turned around and saw Altria coming up behind him.
Facing this 'treasure' with a frown on his face, Gilgamesh spoke with a look of mockery in his eyes.
"Knight King... Make a choice. Risk your life and continue fighting, or... strive for victory in the Holy Grail War..."
As he spoke, Gilgamesh pointed to the cemetery not far from the church.
With the help of the perception generated by top-level intuition, Solomon, whose location had been pointed out, was immediately exposed to Altria's perception.
"Oh, Knight King, I forgot to tell you...Hassan, this random cultivator, is here to play house, and that damn girl over there has no interest in the Holy Grail..."
The teasing look in Gilgamesh's eyes became stronger. Having roughly figured out the general character of Altria's "treasure", Gilgamesh seemed to have begun the first polishing...
55. A family tradition that has broken down?
Late at night in the underground laboratory of the Tong family's house in the city.
Using levitation magic, he lifted up the unconscious Sakura and stepped into this place again.
The battle for 'Senko Shirou' in front of the church.
The curtain has fallen, after accepting the request made by Altria.
Sakura severed the contract between Shirou Senko and Altria on the spot, and then deprived Berserker of his Command Seals and gave them to Altria.
Sakura naturally and successfully obtained Sengo Shirou.
Naturally, they were very satisfied with the smooth recovery of Matou Zouken and obtaining Senko Shirou and Sakura.
After all, if they really want to rely on force to seize Sengo Shirou, with King Hassan not putting in enough effort, Sakura, who has already fought two full battles today and is exhausted, may not be able to successfully achieve this goal.
Sakura stretched tiredly, then casually placed Shirou on a clean and tidy dissection table. She nodded at Orochimaru who smiled silently, turned around and walked out of the underground laboratory.
Sakura naturally didn't need to give any detailed explanations to Orochimaru, who controlled the surveillance system of Fuyuki City. The Cathedral Church in Fuyuki City was the key surveillance area of the entire system, and Orochimaru might know more about what happened there than Sakura herself.
Watch Sakura leave.
Orochimaru then summoned two giant snakes that he had bred, and had the snakes carry Shirou Chishiro and place him into a special surgical device that had been prepared long ago.
Late at night in the mountain villa of the Matou family in the suburbs of Fuyuki City.
This is the end of this thrilling day.
Sakura was finally able to rest in peace.
"I'm so tired..." He complained helplessly.
In battle, she has to constantly adjust her magic circuits, constantly use the Huangting Sutra to switch her emotions, and focus on the enemy. How could Sakura not be tired?
If it weren't for Sakura's practice of the Huangting Sutra and her soul fusion, her energy would be much stronger than that of ordinary people.
If it were any other human of her age, he would have probably fallen down before the first battle was over.
Even adults, or even magicians, would not be able to switch between their emotions and spells at the same frequency as Sakura.
He slowly walked to Sakura and took off the skull mask on his face.
Wang Hassan, with a look of concern in his eyes, asked in his usual low voice.
"How does it feel to be in a real fight?"
"Tired, very tired... Not only do I have to constantly adjust myself, but I also need to keep an eye on the enemy and think about tactics... This is even more tiring than practicing for several days in a row..."
Wang Hassan shook his head gently, with no expression on his face. It was unclear whether he was satisfied or disappointed with Sakura. In short, after shaking his head, Wang Hassan put on the mask again and disappeared from Sakura's sight while talking.
"Yingru, remember this feeling...you will get used to it and use it in the future!"
Sakura blinked in confusion, then turned to look at Kurumi, who was lying on a chair not far away, and her eyes never left Sakura.
"Sister Kuang San, what does Mr. Shan Zhi Weng mean by this?"
"Hehe, Sakura, you are usually very smart, why do you always get confused about this kind of question? What the old man meant~ah, is that he wants you to remember the feeling of today's battle, so that when you encounter a real battle in the future, you will use these feelings and get used to them."
"Alas... When I encounter a real battle in the future... ah... Sister Kuang San, will I not be forced to fight by the old man next time?"
He stood up and walked to Sakura, raised his hand and gently scratched Sakura's nose, then bent down and picked up Sakura, then sat on Sakura's chair, put Sakura on his lap, and nodded.
"That's right, you don't have to go to this Holy Grail War anymore, hehe..."
She shook the small braid by her ear that was tied with Solomon's Ring.
Sakura, who was also surprised by the sudden slacking of attitude, tilted her head unconsciously.
"Could it be that... I have inherited the Tousaka family's weakness?"
But no matter what, it is undoubtedly good news for Sakura that she no longer has to be forced to participate in the next Holy Grail War.
But... Sakura was confused for some reason and she couldn't figure it out at the moment.
Even if she wanted to continue participating, she no longer had the opportunity.
After all, with the triangle situation being broken, there are now only two major groups left in the Holy Grail War, and it has entered the decisive stage. Sakura is no longer allowed to casually intervene.
He rested in Kuang San's arms for a while.
Maybe it was because of the constant switching of emotions today that Sakura's brain was overexcited.
Or maybe it was Sakura, because her mind was still unconsciously recalling the feeling of fighting.
All in all, Sakura lay in Kurumi's arms until three in the morning but couldn't fall asleep.
He climbed out of the arms of the already fast asleep Kuang San and covered her with a blanket.
Sakura tiptoed, opened the door of her room and walked out.
The early morning in the mountains is when animals are most active.
Sakura was walking in the deserted mountain villa, hearing the calls of small mountain animals in her ears, and she unknowingly came to the guest room of the Toosaka family.
Sakura gently pushed open the door of the guest room without making any sound and entered the room with a guilty conscience.
"Sakura!"
A sudden voice startled Sakura.
Looking closely, it turned out that the person making the sound was Tohsaka Tokiomi, who was sitting on the bed, reading a basic magic book with the help of the faint moonlight.
He gently lifted the blanket from his body, being careful not to disturb his wife and daughter who were already sleeping beside him.
At this time, Toosaka Tokiomi had recovered his basic mobility, and then walked gracefully to Sakura's side.
"Can't sleep, Sakura..."
"Well, although I'm very tired, I don't know why, I just don't feel sleepy."
Looking at Tōsaka Tokiomi, whose smile was filled with tenderness, Sakura felt happy but also a little wary.
After all...the last time Sakura saw Tōsaka Tokiomi show such an expression to her was a year ago.
Catching the hint of vigilance in Sakura's eyes, Tōsaka Tokiomi raised his severed hand and smiled self-deprecatingly. He did not mind Sakura's vigilance, but continued to speak gently.
"Would you mind walking with me....Head of the Matou family."
"Sure, I can't sleep anyway..."
Although Tousaka Tokiomi changed his address, Sakura still looked at him suspiciously while agreeing to Tousaka Tokiomi at this moment...
56. Tokiomi's Ambition and Tsuruno's 'Delusion'
In the mountain garden under the moonlight.
Two figures, one big and one small, are walking slowly in this courtyard full of natural atmosphere under the hazy moonlight.
Smell the fragrance of grass and soil in the air.
Sakura, who had already had a good day and was in a good mood, was suspicious and wary of what Tōsaka Tokiomi was planning to do.
But this does not affect Sakura's mood now.
After skipping and walking in the garden for a long time, finally...Tousaka Tokiomi appeared and broke the tranquility.
"Sakura.....do you hate me?"
He stopped and turned to look at Tōsaka Tokiomi.
"Hate... maybe a little, but I don't care about it at all now."
"Then can I leave Aoi and Rin to you...from now on?"
As he spoke, Tōsaka Tokiomi walked to the edge of the garden, and with the help of the moonlight in the sky and the lights in the city, he looked out at the brightly lit Fuyuki City.
"......, Tōsaka Tokiomi, what do you want to do!?"
Faced with Tōsaka Tokiomi's unclear request, Sakura immediately frowned.
"I will continue to fulfill the long-cherished wish of the Tohsaka family..."
"Tousaka Tokiomi, are you looking for death? Are you planning to return to the Holy Grail Battlefield in Fuyuki City now?"
With a hint of determination, Tōsaka Tokiomi seemed to have made up his mind and nodded in front of Sakura.
"Sakura, this is the long-cherished wish of our Tohsaka family... I feel relieved to leave Aoi and Rin to you... and..."
Tōsaka Tokiomi looked down at his broken arm with a bitter smile on his face. Then, as if he had made up his mind, he looked at Sakura, hoping that Sakura would fulfill his wish.
Faced with the actions of her cheap father, Tohsaka Tokiomi, Sakura, whose way of thinking was completely incomprehensible to a magician or family responsibilities, immediately spat at Tohsaka Tokiomi's feet in dissatisfaction.
"Bah... Why? Although I don't hate Aoi Tousaka and Rin, don't forget that I'm the head of the Matou family. Why should I help your Tousaka family to support others?"
Looking at Sakura who suddenly started to act like a rogue, Tōsaka Tokiomi, who still had a soft spot in his heart, smiled sincerely, then returned to a serious look and spoke.
"Aoi has a patent transfer agreement I signed. Although the patent doesn't have much time left, it can be regarded as a little compensation from me... and the gem magic of the Tohsaka family, I have already..."
"Wait, stop talking. I don't care about your patents. Don't think I don't know that your patents can only make a few hundred thousand dollars a year. Do you think I need that little money?"
Sakura, with her hands on her hips and a look of disdain, interrupted Tōsaka Tokiomi's "explanation of final affairs".
Then, after saying the above, Sakura took out the wand directly from her sleeve.
"As for the jewel magic... forget it. If it was that old man's version, maybe I would be more interested in it, but I don't care about the jewel magic of your Tohsaka family..."
Seeing Sakura saying she didn't care, she pulled out her wand and pointed it at herself.
Tohsaka Tokiomi frowned at first, then, thinking of something, he smiled and waved his intact left hand, summoning a ball of fire, from which he pulled out a civilization staff inlaid with a fist-sized gem.
He shook the Command Seal on the back of his hand towards Tōsaka Tokiomi.
"How about this? I am planning to withdraw from this Holy Grail War. Let me take this opportunity to see some gem magic. As long as you win, I will transfer the Command Seal to you."
"Kirei's Command Seal... What's going on? Sakura, why did you join this Holy Grail War..."
Toosaka Tokiomi, who was not aware that Sakura was forced to join the Holy Grail War after he fell into a coma and was planning to withdraw, frowned again.
Just as Tōsaka Tokiomi was thinking about how Kotomine Kirei's Servant and Command Seals appeared on Sakura, what role Kotomine Kirei played when he was attacked by the Servant, and whether his "old friend" and the Holy Church intervened in the Holy Grail War.
Sakura waved her wand and sent a 'silence' towards the villa behind her.
Another day has come, and the bright sunlight shines through the trees, lighting up spots of light on the walls of the mountain villa.
Regarding the duel between Sakura and Tōsaka Tokiomi last night, apart from the parties involved, I'm afraid that the only people in this world who know about it are King Hassan who has been hiding around Sakura to protect her and Kurumi who has always existed in Sakura's shadow.
But the results are very obvious.
In the restaurant of the villa.
The Tousaka family and the Matou family are currently enjoying breakfast with a lot of chatter.
On the left sits the father, on the right sits the mother.
Toosaka Rin, who was so nervous yesterday that she looked like she was about to shed tears, now has a face full of happiness.
"Dad, try it... This is the continental breakfast that Sakura specially prepared."
