One year has passed since the start of the Fourth Holy Grail War.
Fuyuki, Tosaka House, Tokiomi Tosaka's study.
Tokiomi Tosaka placed two jeweled goblets in front of himself and Matou Tsuruno opposite him, picked up a bottle of red wine, and poured a glass for himself and Matou Tsuruno.
"Is he okay, Kariya?"
Tokiomi Tosaka's attitude towards Matou Tsuruno was very gentle, and he always had a warm smile on his face.
"He is making some preparations to welcome Sakura's arrival. You know, although I will adopt Sakura in name, after Sakura arrives at Matou's house, her actual guardian will be Kariya, and Sakura will also get Matou.
The inheritance of the most important magic seal in the family lineage."
"That's the best, that's what I meant."
After listening to Matou Tsuruno's words, Tokiomi Tosaka nodded with satisfaction.
It is common sense that only one person can inherit the mark of a magic family.
"I have two daughters, both of whom are equally excellent, so I can't favor any one of them. That's why I asked you, Tsuruno, to take care of Sakura."
He told the reason why he had no choice but to take a sip of red wine, showing his elegance.
"Of course, Kariya has never been married, so he is lucky to have a daughter to take care of him."
"This is a win-win cooperation, Tokiomi."
There was a hint of sarcasm in his eyes, but he did not show it. He just took a sip of red wine like Tokiomi Tohsaka.
This is the most standard [Magician]
"Of course." Tokiomi followed suit.
The two jeweled goblets collided gently, making a crisp sound.
But it’s really a win-win situation.
Just as Tsuruno planned, Kariya was indeed unmarried and would not have any descendants. However, Kariya inherited the Matou family's most important side magic seal besides the main family's magic seal, which was the water attribute.
magic engraving.
Although not every generation of family heads will have two sons, this magic seal is equally important to the Matou family.
The most important collateral magic seal, as well as a large amount of property, is the "price" paid by the Matou family for Tohsaka Sakura.
Matou Tsuruno didn't care much about this.
Putting aside Kariya's problems, the Matou family is really rich.
Gem magic was developed by Adrosson Falgo, a magician who was once rated as "Grand Rank" by the Clock Tower, and whose title was "Red Quartz". He was also the earliest magician in the Matou family's bloodline to be recorded.
And by using special magic that only [Gem Attribute Magic] can control, it is possible to create eternal gems.
As long as they have sufficient understanding and ability to use magic, those in the Matou family who possess gem magic can create any rare and precious crystal.
Moreover, these long-lasting gems are also excellent magic materials. Whether they are used for experiments, making rituals, or even making some magic potions, they are excellent materials. Therefore, in addition to being used by
The Matou family occasionally sends them to normal human society as luxury goods, and it is also common for them to be sold to other magic families and even magic associations.
Therefore, no matter which world they are in, the Matou family is most famous for being rich.
Tokiomi Tosaka naturally understood this truth.
"Speaking of which, next year will be the day when this Holy Grail War will be held."
Matou Tsuruno looked at Tosaka Tokiomi's gloved hands with some deep meaning.
Noticing the look in Matou Tsuruno's eyes, Tokiomi Tosaka just smiled, temporarily put down the goblet in his hand, and then took off his gloves, revealing the command spell on the back of his hand.
Matou Tsuruno was not surprised, he just took another sip of red wine.
In this Holy Grail War, the master of the Tohsaka family cannot be anyone else but Tokiomi Tosaka.
The Holy Grail will choose its master based on how much you desire it, and the three families that participated in the construction of the Holy Grail War system, namely the Einzbern family, the Matou family, and the Tohsaka family, will definitely occupy three
Quota.
Leaving aside the Einzbern family for now, the Matou family has two candidates, himself and Kariya. Since he has other things to worry about, the responsibility of master falls on Kariya.
As for the Tohsaka family, there is only one person who can become the master.
That is Tokiomi Tosaka.
It may be necessary to hide it from outsiders, but to the Matou family, these are all well known, especially to Tosaka Tokiomi, who grew up playing with each other until they became the heads of their respective families.
Speaking from Matou Tsuruno.
"I understand, Tsuruno, we will not be enemies." He raised a glass to Matou Tsuruno with a hand with a command spell, Tosaka Tokiomi still had an elegant smile on his face.
"We want different things, so we won't be enemies."
The Tosaka family is aware of the long-cherished wish of the Matou family.
Unlike ordinary masters who long for the all-powerful Holy Grail of wishing machines, the only reason why the Matou family constructed and participated in the Holy Grail War was to summon their ancestor Lawrence and understand the many mysteries surrounding Lawrence.
Tokiomi Tosaka sneered at this. As a magic family, they did not pursue their roots. The Matou family was really an anomaly among the magic families.
However, as the two families were the builders of the Holy Grail War system, they had been friends for generations, and the Matou family was too wealthy, so the Tosaka family had always maintained such a close relationship with the Matou family.
"Of course, we will not be enemies."
Heye was noncommittal, but smiled and clinked glasses with Tokiomi again.
After a crisp sound, Tokiomi took a sip of mellow red wine and placed the wine glass on the table.
"Aoi, bring Sakura in."
After clapping his hands, Tokiomi Tosaka looked in the direction of the study door.
The door opened, and a green-haired woman walked in holding the black-haired girl.
"The head of the Matou family."
There was a look of reluctance on her face, but she still had a polite smile and bowed slightly to Matou Tsuruno.
The girl next to her held her hand tightly, looking a little scared.
There is no doubt that she is Tohsaka Tokiomi's second daughter, Tohsaka Sakura.
Now, she will soon change her name to [Mato Sakura].
"Your love is an excellent child." Heye looked at Sakura with a gentle expression, trying his best to look as amiable as possible.
"Sakura, after arriving at the Matou family, you must be obedient. As one of the heirs of the Matou family, you must work hard to learn the knowledge of magic."
Tokiomi pulled Sakura from Tohsaka Aoi's arms, looked into Sakura's eyes, and said earnestly.
"Um"
There was only a sad look on Sakura's face, and her answering voice sounded like a mosquito.
"Don't worry, Kariya likes children very much, and he will treat Sakura well."
Heye smiled and shook his head, leaned forward and rubbed Sakura's head.
