My mother's love song

"No! I have to find Qin Yin."

“I’ll help you find it later, but now you have to go home with Aoi.

Let me tell you in advance that your mother is not in a good mood right now."

"Woo!"

Toosaka Rin immediately showed a frightened expression.

It seems that Aoi is not always so gentle, and she also has a side of a devilish mother when it comes to her daughter's mischief.

Rhodes took her hand, and they walked out of the Japanese-style room side by side.

The girl suddenly asked excitedly, "Since you know about the Holy Grail War, do you know who I am?"

"You are Aoi's daughter."

"No, no, no, no!"

Toosaka Rinrin shook her head, and her thick black twin ponytails began to sway.

"What's wrong? Aren't you born by your mother?"

"My father! Since you know about the Holy Grail War, you should know my father!"

"...Tokiomi?" Rhodes raised his eyebrows.

Toosaka Rin's eyes lit up: "That's right! Toosaka Tokiomi is my father!"

When the girl mentioned her father, her longing expression reminded Rhodes of his aunt Sajo Ayaka.

Severe father complex... Well, these two people are indeed somewhat similar.

Afterwards, Toosaka Rin began her large-scale special lecture on "My Father Toosaka Tokiomi".

As the heir of a magic family, Toosaka Rin was destined to take a different path from ordinary girls since birth.

The reason why she was happy about becoming a magician was because of Tousaka Tokiomi.

In her opinion, her father Tokiomi was close to a perfect person, the greatest, most handsome, and gentle adult she had ever known.

Although there are many girls of the same age who admire their fathers, Rin believes that no daughter can love her father as deeply as she does.

To be precise, Toosaka Rin's wish is not to become a magician, but to become a great man like her father.

But this is just a wish, it cannot be realized just by wanting it.

"Well, my father hasn't expressed his intention to entrust the family to me in the future..."

Lin tugged at the boy's hand and said, "Rod, what do you think your father is thinking? Hasn't he admitted that he has the qualifications to be a magician..."

"Haha, whatever happens is fine."

After Toosaka Rin kept repeating "Tokiomi, Tokiomi, Tokiomi, elegant, elegant" in his ear for twenty minutes, Rhodes felt like he was about to collapse.

I must find Aoi to vent my inner frustration later, the young man thought, stroking his chin.

At this moment, Rhodes suddenly turned around and spoke to a telephone pole behind him.

"Stop following me and come out."

"!?"

Toosaka Rin looked back in surprise at the empty street.

A thin man wearing a sports sweatshirt and a hood on his head slowly walked out from behind the telephone pole.

Toosaka Rin recognized the man immediately and screamed.

“Uncle Kariya!?”

……

……

……

On a weekday afternoon, the warm sunshine shines on the lawn, which is full of playing children and smiling adults who are watching over them.

The park square surrounding the fountain is loved by the public as a place where the whole family can have fun and calm their minds.

Matou Kariya finally met his childhood sweetheart, Tousaka Aoi, whom he hadn't seen for more than a year.

As dignified, beautiful, elegant and generous as always.

To him, even if Aoi becomes someone else's wife, she will still be the most important person in Kariya's heart and will never change.

As soon as Rod, Aoi, Rin, and Kariya met, Toosaka Aoi cried and hugged Rin.

“…Mom, I’m sorry.”

Toosaka Rin looked at her crying mother and finally realized the mistake in her eyes.

While scolding herself in her heart and thinking about what her father would do at this moment, the girl began to gently stroke her mother's back.

"That's great, that's great...really..."

Aoi, whose mind was filled with joy, finally calmed down and raised her head.

Rhode smiled and waved at her: "Hey, Aoi."

"...!"

Toosaka Aoi suppressed the urge to rush up to hug the boy and kiss his lips, and nodded to him steadily.

"Thank you, Lord Rod... You saved my life again."

"Hey, it's nothing."

The two smiled at each other and held hands tacitly.

Rhodes could feel the warmth coming from Kui's palm.

"Long time no see, Aoi."

Matou Kariya who was standing by also greeted her.

Toosaka Aoi was a little confused: "Hey Kariya-kun, why are you here?"

“I was the one who called Uncle Kariya over.”

Looking at the plump figure of Aoi Toosaka that he hadn't seen for several days, Rhodes said with a smirk.

Otherwise, won't there be no one to help us look after Rin-chan?

Chapter 081: Gun Dai, why are you wearing Morgan's clothes? [5K]

Matou Kariya actually knew Rod.

A year ago, it was he who snatched the Matou family's qualification to fight from Kariya.

Now that the Matou family has disappeared, is he planning to snatch something from me again! ?

When he saw Rhodes for the first time, Matou Kariya's heart skipped a beat for unknown reason.

For some reason, he had a bad feeling.

“Ah, long time no see, Kariya.”

On the way to the park, Rod greeted him warmly.

“…Hello.”

Kariya was a little nervous.

Whether in expression or atmosphere, the Rhodes in front of him was completely different from the cold boy he met at the Matou family.

"Why are you here?"

Putting a little distance between himself and Toosaka Rin, Kariya whispered to the boy walking side by side.

In fact, this question is very redundant.

Although he knew very little about the boy, Kariya was certain of one thing: Rod was of the same kind as Tōsaka Tokiomi and Matou Zouken.

"I'm a friend of Tousaka Aoi and Rin."

As expected, Kariya was not surprised by Rhode’s answer.

Since he is from "that side", it wouldn't be surprising if he knew Tōsaka Tokiomi.

But he never expected that the person Rhodes knew was actually Aoi Toosaka.

"What happened to the Matou family?"

"I do not know either."

"Do Aoi and Rin know your true identity?"

"They don't know."

Rhodes glanced at Yan Ye nonchalantly, with a look that said, "I advise you not to meddle in other people's business."

Yan Ye said in a deep voice with uneasiness: "How can I trust you..."

"Rod, do you know Uncle Kariya?"

At this time, Toosaka Rin suddenly interrupted the somewhat tense conversation between Rod and Kariya.

Looking at the two people with such a huge age difference, the girl felt that the world was really a small place.

Rhode nodded and said, "Yes, I know him. Aoi often tells me about Kariya."

Of course it's impossible. Which woman would say something like a bootlicker in front of the man she loves?

"Hey~~~ Mom always tells you something, I'm a little concerned about it."

While Rod was dealing with Toosaka Rin with a smile, he was observing Kariya.

It seems that he has no intention of exposing his relationship with the Matou family.

After all, the word "Matou family" is almost a taboo word for Tousaka Aoi, so he should try not to mention it as much as possible.

"Are you and Aoi very close?"

Kariya suddenly asked Rhodes in a low voice.

"...Well, it's okay." Rhodes said lightly.

.................................

They stopped communicating and continued on their way in silence.

When the three of them stepped into the gate of the Citizen Park, Rhodes suddenly thought of something and whispered to Kariya.

“Hey, Kariya. Do you know asphyxia?”

"...?"

Matou Kariya looked at Rhodes in confusion: What is this guy talking about?

"It doesn't matter if you don't know, haha, it's nothing. It's just... humans really have a bad taste...

Come to think of it, there are actually girls who enjoy it… I only found out about it recently.

But it depends on the person, right? Because it’s the one I like the most, I’ll accept it.”

Rhode muttered to himself and waved to the graceful Aoi Toosaka in the distance.

……

……

……

in the park.

Toosaka Aoi looked at Matou Kariya with some surprise.

She knew that her childhood friend had not died in the fire at the Matou residence, but she was still surprised to see him again in Fuyuki.

More than a month ago, Yan Ye had said goodbye to her and said that he was leaving the place where he was born.

Matou Kariya left Fuyuki in order to search for the missing Sakura, but he did not tell anyone including Aoi about this purpose.

The reason why Matou Kariya returned to Fuyuki, a place that no longer had anything to do with him, was naturally because he was worried that Tōsaka Aoi was too sad about Sakura's situation, so he came back to visit her...
