Shiraishi was full of confidence, just as he believed that he could definitely convince Matou Kariya to obey him.
Because he knows Matou Kariya's weak spot - Matou Sakura.
For the sake of his childhood sweetheart, Matou Kariya was willing to pay the price of his life. Now Shiraishi doesn't want his life either. He only wants Basaka that he summons. I believe that the smart Matou Kariya will definitely make the right choice.
"You killed Zōken... is that true?"
After hearing Shiraishi say that he killed Matou Zouken, the filial son Matou Kariya suddenly became excited, looked up at Shiraishi and asked.
When he raised his head, his current face was revealed.
A disfigured face, so horrible, only one eye was normal, the other was completely white, as if it was blind.
Of course, his other eye was indeed blind, but that didn't matter, as long as he still had one working.
This is the price one must pay after having one's body eroded by the Marking Bugs and having one's vitality transformed into magic power.
There are gains and losses.
Matou Kariya understood this truth.
He is not a genius with extraordinary talents, but a dabbler with poor qualifications. If he wants to summon a powerful servant, he has to pay a price.
"Of course it's true, why would I lie to you?"
Shiraishi could not escape the gaze of Matou Kariya. Although his face looked very scary now, Shiraishi, who had watched countless horror movies, was not afraid at all.
How serious is this? The whole face is disfigured, and some of the bones are exposed...
“Zou Yan is dead, Zou Yan is dead…hahaha…that’s great, Zou Yan is dead! He’s finally dead! Sakura is saved, no one can force Sakura anymore, hahahaha…”
Matou Kariya seemed to have gone crazy and started roaring hysterically.
The terrifying and strange laughter woke up the sleeping Sakura Matou.
Sakura Matou, who was still in Tamamonomae's arms, heard Matou Kariya's laughter, turned her head to look at the direction where the laughter came from, and recognized Matou Kariya, the uncle who was so kind to her.
“Uncle Kariya?”
A childish voice stopped Matou Kariya's wild laughter.
He was most familiar with Sakura's voice.
Looking up behind Shiraishi, he suddenly saw Sakura Matou in Tamamonomae's arms.
"Sakura..."
The surprised Matou Kariya wanted to go over and see Matou Sakura, but was stopped by Shiraishi.
This is the ultimate weapon he uses to threaten Matou Kariya. It is impossible for him to approach it easily unless he agrees to exchange it for Basaka.
He held Loli Sakura hostage to control Uncle Kariya.
This was the method that Shiraishi had thought of from the beginning to target Matou Kariya.
He always believed that Matou Kariya, who valued Matou Sakura, would agree to any of his conditions.
Including asking him to sacrifice himself.
As long as Sakura can be safe, Matou Kariya will definitely do it.
Text: Chapter 27 Chapter 26 Starting from Zero to Trick Matou Kariya
Shiraishi couldn't understand Matou Kariya's thoughts, just like he didn't understand why a dog would like to lick a goddess.
Well, the licker likes to lick the goddess, maybe to the end, and have everything.
Matou Kariya's thoughts are speechless.
For the daughter of the Tohsaka family, he was willing to sacrifice his own life...
In the eyes of outsiders, this is the behavior of a complete fool.
Bai Shi also thought he was a fool who was easy to fool.
Now it's time to fool him.
"Listen to me, you'd better not go over there right now, because you're too scary and will scare the child to tears."
Bai Shi did not lie, he was telling the truth.
The current Matou Kariya looks like a demon from a horror movie, with one eye blind and his face disfigured, looking terrifying.
If a normal child saw this, he would definitely be scared and cry.
The same cannot be said for Matou Sakura.
This child, who had experienced the torture of the old bug and whose rationality had long since collapsed, would not be frightened by the terrifying Matou Kariya.
Because this is the light in her heart.
No matter what Matou Kariya becomes, as long as he is not dead, Matou Sakura will always remember him and will not fall into darkness.
Of course, Matou Kariya didn't understand this. He knew that his current appearance was indeed terrifying, and if Sakura suddenly saw it, she might be scared to tears.
He usually wears a hood, a deep one that is enough to hide his terrifying appearance.
When he summoned the servant before, the noise was quite loud, causing the hood on his head to fall off.
Matou Kariya thought of this and immediately put on his hood and lowered his head as much as possible to prevent Sakura from seeing his face.
"It's barely OK now, you two can talk."
Shiraishi did not try to stop Matou Kariya anymore.
Letting him communicate with Sakura Matou is also to gain his trust.
Although Shiraishi can use threats to force Matou Kariya to hand over Basaka, he is not a real villain, so there is no need to use that method to threaten him.
What's more, for him who killed the old monster Matou Zouken, Matou Kariya would regard him as a benefactor.
There are many benefits to getting rid of that old monster, Matou Zouken.
First of all, he got rid of his anger. Secondly, he occupied the Matou family and obtained the entire collection of a famous magic family. Finally, he gained the favor of Matou Kariya.
The last point may seem useless, but it is actually quite important.
This will allow Shiraishi to get Barsaka more smoothly.
Matou Kariya ignored what Shiraishi said. He only had Sakura in his eyes now, because he had just summoned a Servant, and Basaka had fought like a mad dog, causing his magic power to not recover. The Crest Bugs began to squeeze his vitality and transform it into magic power...
Matou Kariya is extremely weak now. He can't even stand up. He can only sit on the ground and dares not look up at Sakura.
His voice was trembling as he spoke: "Xiaoying, are you okay?"
Sakura Matou didn't want to stay in Tamamonomae's arms. Even though the embrace of this dramatic fox was warm, she wanted to stand on the ground.
Tamamonomae did not insist. When she found out that the little girl had ADHD, she gave up holding her and let her stand on the ground.
Matou Sakura jogged all the way and finally came to Matou Kariya's side: "Uncle Kariya, I'm fine, but grandpa... grandpa is missing."
The young child did not understand what death meant. She just thought that her grandfather Matou had gone to a distant place and would never come back.
This is also the deception that most parents tell their children.
"Uncle Kariya, Sakura won't have to go to the basement anymore, right?"
Matou Sakura asked expectantly.
"No, Sakura, you don't have to go to the basement."
Matou Kariya was ecstatic. If Matou Zouken was really dead, then Sakura would not have to suffer that pain.
His wish was also fulfilled.
Now all that's left is the wish to teach Tōsaka Tokiomi a lesson.
From the beginning to the end, Matou Kariya was not interested in the Holy Grail War, nor did he think about participating in it.
If it wasn't for saving Sakura, he wouldn't have participated in the Holy Grail War.
His purpose of participating in the Holy Grail War was very simple. One was to get the Holy Grail and exchange Sakura with Matou Zouken, and the other was to teach Tōsaka Tokiomi a lesson in the Holy Grail War.
Now that Zouken Matou has been killed, he no longer has to exchange the Holy Grail for Sakura. From a certain perspective, his original wish has been fulfilled, and the remaining wish to teach Tōsaka Tokiomi a lesson is insignificant.
No wish was more important than saving Sakura.
"That's great. Sakura doesn't have to go to the basement anymore. Does Uncle Kariya have to go there too?"
Matou Sakura's innocent words made Matou Kariya feel comforted.
How could such a simple-minded girl like Sakura endure such pain?
It’s a good thing that old monster Zang Yan died!
"Yeah, uncle, I won't go to the basement either. How about I just stay with Sakura?"
Matou Kariya no longer wants to think about anything else now, and only wants to accompany Sakura through the last few days of her life.
"Sakura is of course very happy that Uncle Kariya can accompany her, but..."
Before Sakura Matou could finish her words, she suddenly fainted. Before she fell to the ground, she was picked up by Tamamonomae.
"Sakura!"
Seeing this, Matou Kariya shouted loudly, stood up with fearless perseverance, and wanted to fight with Tamamonomae to get Matou Sakura back.
Shiraishi stood in front of Tamamonomae, stopping Matou Kariya's crazy actions, and said calmly: "She's fine, she just fell asleep."
"After such cruel torture, she needs to sleep to recuperate. She can't talk to you for too long for now."
"I'm doing this for her own good."
"At least I killed that old monster, saved the child, and saved you..."
"So, could you please listen to what I have to say first?"
The tone of Bai Shi's speech was neither dismissive nor passionate, but calm yet neither humble nor arrogant.
After hearing these words, Matou Kariya calmed down completely.
You have to stay calm.
He was just a half-baked magician and there was no way he could be a match for the magician who had killed that old monster Zang Yan.
In addition, the Basaka he summoned earlier went berserk and was unable to defeat the master-slave combination.
Even if he summoned Basaka now, he still wouldn't be able to defeat him.
There's no need to humiliate yourself.
Besides, he didn't think the other party had any ill intentions.
Someone who can kill the old monster Zouken and save Sakura from the insect nest cannot be a bad person.
This is Matou Kariya's simple view.
"what do you want to say?"
Although Matou Kariya was certain that Shiraishi was not a bad person, his focus was still on Matou Sakura in Tamamonomae's arms, and he asked perfunctorily.
Text: Chapter 28 Chapter 27 I want Barsaka
"I have a lot more to say, but you may not be interested, so I will just say something that you may be interested in."
Shiraishi looked at Matou Kariya. He had thought about how to trick him before, but at this moment, he suddenly realized that there was no need to trick him. He could just state his purpose directly: "I want Basaka."
"what?"
Matou Kariya was unable to react for a moment, and an expression of surprise appeared on his ferocious and terrifying face.
"I want Barsaka."
Bai Shi repeated once again: "With your physical fitness, you can't bear Basaka's absorption of magic power now, so leave Basaka to me."
"This is the best option for you."
"You don't need Barsaka anymore. After all, the person you wanted to save is out of danger."
Having said this, Shiraishi paused for a moment and pointed at the sleeping Matou Sakura: "Don't you want to spend more time with this child?"
"At the end of your life, if you can't spend time with this child, you will never have another chance."
These words touched Matou Kariya’s heart.
