Finn waved his hand gloatingly.

Because he was a legitimate summoner! "Alright, you've solved Sakura's problem, haven't you?"

A weak, feeble voice came from Matou Kariya, whose face was ashen.

Kariya stared intently at Aizen, fearing that the latter might suddenly utter a word of defeat to shatter his hopes.

Aizen didn't keep her in suspense and nodded straightforwardly, saying, "All the troubles have been resolved, and I've even restored her original aptitude, including her magical attributes that were damaged by the modifications."

"That"

Matou Kariya's eyes lit up, and his gaze involuntarily turned to Sakura, who was still unconscious.

Before he could continue speaking, Aizen interrupted him directly: "Now all that's left is the final step, which is to remove all the insects that will cause no further trouble."

"The old bug's true form, the brain worm, will appear soon, so I asked Diarmuid to invite Tokiomi Tohsaka to witness this final step."

"No need to wait for him!"

Kariya couldn't help but get a little emotional, "Just get Sakura out of this torment as soon as possible, there's no need to worry about that bastard at all."

"There is absolutely no risk now; it's the same sooner or later."

Aizen frowned slightly, his tone becoming more serious: "Tohsaka Tokiomi also harbors considerable hatred for Matou Zouken. Is it really that difficult to make him witness it firsthand and reflect on how poor his judgment was, to make him feel guilty?"

""

Yan Ye looked conflicted, unsure how to refute him.

It sounds like a fallacy, but it does make a lot of sense.

But considering Sakura's situation, she still had to rely on the man in front of her.

Tong Yanye suppressed her dissatisfaction and pulled down her hat brim: "I hope it will be soon."

In fact, they didn't have to wait very long.

For the past few days, Tokiomi Tohsaka hasn't been fully focused on the Holy Grail War. Sakura's situation has been constantly on his mind, so he's been keeping a close eye on "Kenneth."

The situation here.

When he discovered that Diarmuid was heading towards the Tohsaka residence, he couldn't resist setting off ahead to join Diarmuid.

When Tokiomi Tohsaka arrived, he was naturally met with a cold shoulder from Kariya Matou, but the former completely disregarded the latter's opinion.

"Mr. Kenneth, is Sakura ready?"

"Yes, just one last step."

Looking at Sakura's peaceful sleeping face, Tokiomi Tohsaka's heavy expression softened considerably.

Aizen was quite satisfied with observing the guy's expression; it seemed that the problem with Tokiomi Tohsaka had been resolved.

These past few days have not only been used to conduct preliminary experiments to digest the knowledge from Kenneth, but also to give Tokiomi Tohsaka time to process and struggle.

If he had healed Sakura immediately, given Tokiomi Tohsaka's personality, he would probably have suppressed all his negative emotions and continued preparing for the Holy Grail War.

But things are different now.

Because the final answer has yet to be revealed, any decent father would be in a state of high tension. The final step for Aizen is to sever this connection.

Under the watchful eyes of everyone holding their breath, Aizen quietly activated the hypnotic power of Kyoka Suigetsu once again, and Sakura's peaceful sleeping posture suddenly changed.

Pain was evident on her face, but what was even more terrifying was the constant wriggling of the worms that pushed their way out of her skin, their outlines visible. In the blink of an eye, a cute little girl had become utterly horrifying.

"Sakura!"

The two men, from different backgrounds, simultaneously gasped in alarm with concern.

Just as they were about to question Aizen, a cracking sound began to emanate from him.

*Pfft pfft pfft!* The next moment, *bang!* Dozens or even hundreds of Crest Insects pierced through the skin at the same time. A burst of blood mist and fragments of clothing revealed a terrifyingly dense swarm of insects. But Tohsaka Tokiomi and Matou Kariya stared wide-eyed at the little girl, whose body was covered in blood, not a single patch of unscathed flesh.

No one knows how to describe the sudden, sharp pain in their hearts during this moment of breathlessness.

It was obvious that Tokiomi Tohsaka's thread of reason had snapped completely! At this moment, his most instinctive reaction was to consider what this man truly valued.

Fear, heartache, regret, self-blame, and dread surfaced one by one on the face of this stubborn man who always had to maintain an elegant demeanor in front of others. Tokiomi Tohsaka, without any pretense, was never more vivid and real than he was now.

His body trembled violently, almost to the point of collapse, which showed how terrified he was of losing his daughter completely. At that moment, only one thought occupied his mind.

I'm so glad Sakura's safe and sound! Finn, it's your turn now.

Aizen gestured with his eyes.

Finn, who hadn't expected Aizen to go to such lengths, was momentarily stunned. He then stepped forward and pulled the two men, whose emotions were clearly turbulent, back down: "Calm down, both of you. She only looks scary now; this girl's life force hasn't diminished much."

My family was prepared long ago. I'll take care of these minor injuries and give you back a beautiful, complete daughter.”

"Really? It won't happen again?"

"No time to wait: Yan Ye's excited yet fearful question fell, a deep yet resounding voice striking everyone's hearts."

Thump! Time seemed to stand still as Matou Kariya stared in disbelief at the man kneeling on the ground, his proud head bowed.

That humble posture finally tore away the last shred of dignity he had left.

“Please!”

Chapter 483 Suspicion of Kirei Kotomine 2/2

Matou Kariya and Tohsaka Tokiomi reacted in unison once again, both casting murderous glares at the brain worm at Aizen's fingertips.

At this moment, Aizen had already canceled the Kyoka Suigetsu on the old insect.

Realizing its predicament, the old insect began to struggle frantically, and its fear was palpable to everyone present, even though no one could see its expression.

This old man, who had survived for hundreds of years, refused to die, even though he knew he had no chance of continuing to struggle and escape.

"Jian! Tong! Zang! Yan!"

Tokiomi Tohsaka gritted his teeth, his face contorted with rage, and a dazzling flame gathered in his palm.

Aizen, understanding Tokiomi Tohsaka's meaning, glanced at Kariya and threw the old insect away. A series of shrill screams were quickly swallowed up by the flames.

Kariya Matou, who also harbored hatred for Zouken Matou, no matter how much he loathed his father, even though the latter had brought about Zouken's death, ultimately couldn't bring himself to kill his father with his own hands, given his ordinary moral compass.

Since that's the case, it would be best to let Tokiomi Tohsaka take revenge. In fact, Aizen himself wouldn't mind the old bug being killed.

Keeping him alive for a couple more days was only to provoke Tokiomi Tohsaka; once he was done, he would have no further use.

"huhu"

Having defeated the old bug, Tokiomi Tohsaka, whose chest heaved considerably, felt much better.

Half an hour later, after cleaning Sakura's body and tidying her clothes, Tokiomi Tohsaka met with his daughter and the others again in the cleaned room.

At this moment, Tokiomi Tohsaka regained his former confidence and elegance, and holding the little girl's hand, he really looked like a happy father and daughter, which made Kariya Matou, who didn't have a long life to live, so envious that he kept coughing.

Fortunately, Sakura Tohsaka's indifferent attitude helped Kariya regain some composure.

"Thank you all very much for Sakura's matter."

"I wonder what you all plan to do in the upcoming Holy Grail War."

Sitting in his seat, Tokiomi Tohsaka asked clearly and logically.

Aizen rested his elbows on the table and said calmly, "I have only one reason for participating in the Holy Grail War: to add another achievement to my record."

As for using the Holy Grail to fulfill wishes, that's completely unnecessary; my ambitions cannot be accomplished by a mere Holy Grail.

Kariya is my ally; I helped him rescue Sakura, and in return, he made me work for him.”

"Such ambition could probably only be possessed by Lord Kenneth, who could be called a prodigy even at the Clock Tower."

After offering a heartfelt compliment, Tokiomi Tohsaka glanced at the black figure in the corner, sighed, and said with a complicated expression, "Everyone thought that you only had one violating Heroic Spirit, and that the assistance you received made you the greatest enemy in the Holy Grail War."

I never imagined you were responsible for yet another violating Heroic Spirit, and not just any ordinary third-rate one. It's truly terrifying."

"According to my intelligence, each of your three starter families has its own methods, right?"

Aizen smiled lightly, seemingly unfazed.

Tokiomi Tohsaka nodded slightly, neither confirming nor denying it. In fact, he had colluded with the referee, Masaru, to make a biased call, and he also had a disciple as a hidden ally.

The Einzbern family went nowhere; on the surface, they used the homunculus as bait, but in reality, it was just a decoy to resist lightning. The guard discovered by Hassan was the true Master of the Knight King.

As for the Matou family, sorry, he's allergic to those three words now.

However, summoning three Heroic Spirits is still going too far, so this... "Kenneth"

Seeking allies is downright insane.

"Tokiomi Tohsaka, you don't actually want to continue the Holy Grail War, do you?"

Matou Kariya's tone was unfriendly.

"No, whether I want to participate in the Holy Grail War or not, that Hero King will no longer cooperate with me."

Moreover, compared to risking my life to obtain the Holy Grail and fulfill my ancestors' wishes, there is a more important responsibility I need to shoulder now. The Tohsaka family will simply give up on this Holy Grail War.”

His nonchalant yet decisive attitude left Yan Ye speechless, and at the same time, a strange sense of frustration welled up in her heart.

Now that you're saying you won't participate in the Holy Grail War, you know how to take responsibility. If you had just lived your life honestly from the beginning, Sakura wouldn't have gotten into trouble, and I'd be healthy and well now! Matou Kariya now feels a sense of frustration, as if he sacrificed his life just for his rival's family and Wanxing, resulting in the destruction of his own family, the death of his people, and his own imminent demise.

However, regardless of the circumstances, it was the path he chose.

Unlike in the original story, Kariya wasn't driven to the brink of collapse and couldn't gain recognition; he was still able to maintain his rationality.

He originally wanted to kill Tokiomi Tohsaka because of his own hatred, but the trigger for that hatred was Sakura. Now that Sakura has been reborn, no matter how painful it is, he cannot destroy Sakura's family with his own hands.

His willingness to sacrifice himself doesn't mean he's a saint; even risking his life ultimately means he hopes to gain recognition.

In the original story, he was driven to the brink of despair and had no hope left, and even Aoi Zenjou and Rin Tohsaka didn't understand him, which led to his complete breakdown.

Ultimately, Aoi Zenjou and Rin Tohsaka had no idea what Sakura had gone through; they were only afraid because they thought Kariya Matou was a madman.

While enduring the pain and torment of the Crest Worms, Kariya Matou saw no hope of obtaining the Holy Grail to save Sakura, and he couldn't even defeat Tokiomi Tohsaka in a one-on-one fight.

The physical torment, the despair in his heart, and the resentment in his mind caused Matou Kariya to be in an abnormal mental state at that time. His inability to communicate normally was not because he did not want to communicate normally.

The situation is much better now than in the original story. His rationality prevents him from insisting on a life-or-death struggle with Tokiomi Tohsaka; at most, he feels a deep sense of resentment.

This guy is just a nice guy at heart.

"Then what about the King of Heroes? He shouldn't be the kind of person who would easily withdraw from a war, right?"

Finn raised an eyebrow and pressed on.

"That's right, my withdrawal from the Holy Grail War doesn't mean that the King will also withdraw from it."

Tokiomi Tohsaka nodded in agreement.

"So he wants to change?"

Dirumdo looked surprised.

"No, his magic is still provided by me."

Tokiomi Tohsaka denied it without changing his expression.

This made the group frown slightly. What was the difference between this and not withdrawing from the Holy Grail War? It was like taking off your pants to fart, wasn't it?

Seeing Matou Kariya's resentment and doubt, Tokiomi calmly said, "Even if I break my contract with the King of Heroes, I am still one of the Masters in this Holy Grail War."

If any group of participants loses their Master, I can take their place. Or, even if I don't have any Servants, as long as I survive to the end, I still have the ability to seize the fruits of victory.

Others won't give up the possibility of killing me; in this world, only the dead are truly safe.

Aizen's expression turned strange upon hearing Zhao's words.

Even Tokiomi Saka understands this principle, so why would you, Kenneth, believe Kiritsugu Emiya's nonsense?

"Therefore, even if I don't compete for the Holy Grail, I still need to have my own security."

This time, I have a reason to live.

Looking at Sakura, who resembled a little princess, with doting affection and tenderness, Tokiomi Tohsaka's expression was firm: "I have already discussed it with him. From now on, I will not have any connection with him in my current identity, but will simply provide him with magic in the mortal world."

He will have to face the Holy Grail War from now on, and in return, he will help me and my family when we are in danger. I can control him with Command Spells, but I can also summon him for help with Command Spells.

This is a deal and agreement between him and me.

Besides the concern about people like Kiritsugu Emiya, there's another reason for keeping Servant contracts.

That day, Kirei Kotomine appeared at the Matou residence.
