"Am I to understand that this is some kind of betrayal?"
Tokiomi Tosaka crossed his hands in front of his chest, a very surprised expression appeared on his face involuntarily, and a hint of disgust that was not easily noticed flashed in his eyes.
As a very traditional and chauvinistic man, he obviously emotionally dislikes a stupid woman like Sora who betrays her fiancé and plans to elope with him in a whimsical way.
You must know that in the eyes of orthodox magicians, a servant is actually equivalent to an advanced "familiar", that is, a tool with certain intelligence that is driven by magic.
Yes, you are not mistaken.
Don't think that just because Tokiomi Tosaka pretends to be a grandson in front of Gilgamesh, he really respects this oldest hero king.
Quite the opposite!
The reason why he does this is to better control the other party and make the other party act according to his plan.
After defeating other Masters and Servants, this guy will definitely use the Command Spell to force Jin Shining to commit suicide, and then swallow the Holy Grail by himself to achieve the ultimate goal of reaching the source.
As for the trivial matter that Sora and Kenneth have no emotional foundation and are simply a marriage from a family of magicians, it is simply not worth mentioning, for someone like Tosaka Tokiomi, who has received an upright education as a magician since childhood, it is simply ordinary.
After all, the magic circle in this world is so big, and all the ancient families that have been passed down are doing their best to find excellent "mother bodies" to give birth to the next generation of heirs.
When he originally pursued his wife Aoi, he was attracted by the fact that she had the blood of the Chancheng family, a family of magicians. There were still excellent magic factors flowing in her body, and she had a high probability of giving birth to the most outstanding offspring.
Facts have proved that his choice was right.
Both Rin and Sakura have the potential to become very good magicians.
This is also the premise for the two people to maintain a very good relationship foundation.
Otherwise, if no outstanding offspring are produced, what awaits Aoi may be indifference or even complete abandonment.
As for things like love, it is not important at all to magicians who long to pursue powerful power and supreme truth.
Marriages like Sora's and Kenneth's, which have no emotional basis and are purely for the purpose of producing outstanding offspring, are a common phenomenon in the magic world.
As long as you fulfill your mission, it doesn't really matter whether you are separated, divorced, or whether you each have his own life.
Emiya Kiritsugu and Irisviel are also in the same situation.
Even though the two have given birth to a common daughter, Illyasviel, the former still maintains a close relationship with his assistant and lover Maiya Kuu.
Irisviel was obviously aware of this, but she would not interfere.
This is a common and true portrayal of a typical magician family marriage.
Therefore, in Tosaka Tokiomi's view, Sora's behavior is simply a challenge to the traditions of the entire magic world. If it were his wife who dared to do such a rebellious act, he would definitely clean up the family and protect Tosaka without hesitation.
The honor of the family is not tarnished.
But his reason kept reminding him that this was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
Not only can Kenneth's power be used to deal with the most powerful Caster together, but he can also easily get rid of a strong competitor afterwards.
The price that needs to be paid is just to let Lancer and this stupid woman leave Fuyuki City. No matter how you look at it, you will make a lot of money.
After all, summoning the Holy Grail does not require gathering all seven Servants.
Especially with the existence of the "Holy Grail Vessel" Irisviel von Einzbern, five Servants should normally be enough.
"betray?
No, I have never loved Kenneth, let alone wanted to marry him and have children.
All of this was just imposed on me by my family.
In this case, how can we talk about betrayal?
I am just pursuing what I desire most in my heart, just like you men pursue the roots.
As a woman, what’s wrong with me pursuing my own love and happiness?”
Sora obviously didn't know that his image in the eyes of the other party was already so bad that it couldn't get any worse, so he still tried to defend himself.
But Tokiomi Tosaka raised his hand and interrupted her: "That's enough!
I'm not interested in hearing your motives and reasons.
If you are truly willing to give up the Holy Grail, then let us sign a mandatory contract.
I promise you on the honor of the Tohsaka family that if you follow my instructions, you will get everything you want afterwards."
"make a deal!"
Sora agreed without hesitation.
Because compared to the notorious "Magician Killer" Emiya Kiritsugu, Tokiomi Tosaka can definitely be regarded as a trustworthy person.
In this way, the two quickly signed a secret contract without anyone knowing.
Following Sora, he returned to Kenneth and informed his fiancé Tosaka Tokiomi, who had been sold, that he agreed to the alliance request.
Poor Kenneth unknowingly became the first Master to be eliminated by default.
If Kotomine Kirei is included, Tokiomi Tokiomi's camp now has three masters and three servants.
Coupled with the secret support from the church, he soon regained his confidence, calmness and grace, and began to plan how to deal with the biggest threat to ensure that he was the winner of the Fourth Holy Grail War.
As the first battle between the Master and the Servants came to an end, the entire Fuyuki City became completely quiet in less than an hour.
The church also quickly came forward to simply cover up and repair the dock warehouse area that was destroyed by Little Annie's powerful magic, and then announced that it had been hit by an extraterrestrial meteorite and caused a severe thunderstorm.
Since there were no casualties, the public just lamented that the operators and owners of those warehouses and terminals would have to lose a lot of money.
After all, insurance companies usually do not pay compensation for natural disasters like this that are irresistible, and everyone can only bear the consequences.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! They have no idea that similar situations will happen one after another in the next period of time.
You must know that this is the "peaceful" Fuyuki City. Before the Fourth Holy Grail War is completely over, things like "gas explosions" and "gas leaks" will occur frequently.
But generally speaking, the probability of affecting ordinary people is not high.
Although many people have ridiculed the phrase "the Holy Grail War is conducted in secret", they feel that the astonishing destructive power produced by the heroic spirits releasing the Noble Phantasm does not seem to be related to the words "being conducted in secret".
But in fact, most of the battles between followers take place at night near no man's land.
Even people like Emiya Kiritsugu who do whatever it takes to achieve their goals, when they try to kill Kenneth by blowing up a building, they first start a fire alarm to drive away ordinary people who have nothing to do with it.
So looking at the entire Fourth Holy Grail War, perhaps the most serious incident was the unscrupulous killing of innocent people by the pair of Uyu Ryunosuke and Gil de Rai, and the final destruction of the Holy Grail and the contaminated black mud flowing into the world.
caused the fire.
Fortunately, the former has been nipped in the bud, and the rest of the participants basically understand the rules.
However, the residents of Fuyuki City cannot take it lightly just yet.
Because once little Annie goes crazy, the casualties and destruction caused will be much more terrifying than that of Gilles de Rey. Maybe the city under her feet and even the entire island country will be wiped off the map.
This is no joke!
As a quasi-god with the ability to kill true gods, she can literally shatter a planet. Even if two major inhibitory powers attack at the same time, she may not be able to stop her in time.
What's more, she is the planeswalker who ignited the spark.
As the saying goes, you can only be a thief for a thousand days, but you can't prevent a thief for a thousand days.
If you really piss off this little devil, he will be teleported over every now and then and give him a hard slap.
Perhaps it may not be a big deal to a planet with a will, but it can definitely be considered a catastrophe to humans living on the surface.
In just a few times, the fragile modern civilization and ecological environment will collapse, and the human race will become extinct as a result.
Fortunately, due to the influence of Zuo Si, little Annie was not interested in killing, destroying and other behaviors. She was just curious and liked playing and playing pranks like a child.
Right now she was sitting on a soft sofa, her two little feet wrapped in white stockings hanging in the air and swinging back and forth. Her shoes had already been kicked somewhere, and she was holding something in her hand.
On a plate were two half-eaten pieces of chocolate cake.
Her innocent look made it hard for Kariya Matou, who was sitting next to her, to believe that this was Zeus, the famous king of the gods in Greek mythology. Instead, she looked like a spoiled little girl, far from her childhood.
Ban Rin is somewhat similar.
If it weren't for the activated lightning that keeps wandering around, I'm afraid anyone would regard it as a cute little angel.
"So your servant is the famous Knight of the Lake, King Arthur's strongest Knight of the Round Table—Lancelot?"
Anastasia looked at Berserker with great interest, who was standing not far away covered in black smoke, and her eyes showed unparalleled surprise.
Because no matter from any point of view, Lancelot does not match the Berserker class.
