Gilgamesh glanced at Tōsaka Tokiomi coldly and said, "Don't worry... you should pray that the Matou family you mentioned can live in peace."

“…mediocrity.”

Tōsaka Tokiomi couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, and subconsciously said: "What do you mean?"

However, Gilgamesh did not answer him. He just looked at Tōsaka Tokiomi meaningfully and turned away.

……

Fuyuki City is a small seaside town in Japan. To the east is Shinto, a highly modern new town, while to the west is Miyama-cho, which is basically a residential area and is also the old town of Fuyuki.

The east and west sides are connected by a bridge called "Miyuan River".

The place where Aika Sajo lives after traveling through time is located in the center of a bustling new city, in a towering building.

For Sakura Matou at this age, this was the first time she ran away from home at night... and the first time she went out, she came to their house with two strangers.

Along the way, the little girl's eyes were scanning the surroundings, her eyes full of curiosity about new things.

Her originally dim eyes seemed to regain some luster at this moment.

After pushing open the door and entering the room, Alvin poured her a cup of hot tea, then half-knelt beside the little Lolita and said, "Xiaoying, from your tone just now, it seems that you have heard about Bailong?"

Matou Sakura didn't seem to be on guard against Alvin. She nodded slightly and whispered, "I've heard my father mention him before."

Alvin's mind moved. He remembered that Zhu Yue once said that the restraining force would "correct" everything that was not related to history, so "White Dragon Alvin" might also be corrected in the future.

But if people in the future knew the story of 'White Dragon Alvin', would he have become a part of history?

If so, will the restraining force still 'correct' his existence?

Alvin collected his thoughts for a moment and asked gently, "When did your father send you to the Matou family?"

"...A few days ago." When Sakura Matou said this, her tone seemed to be much lower.

A loli at this age can't hide her thoughts. When her father sent her to the Matou family, her heart was already filled with despair.

But Matou Sakura probably didn't know yet. If she hadn't run away from home tonight, she might have been in the insect warehouse now, receiving the baptism of the "engraved insects".

But judging by her black hair, Matou Sakura probably hasn't been transformed by the Crest Bug yet...

Thinking of this, Alvin felt a little relieved.

The black-haired loli in a plain white dress sat on the sofa somewhat stiffly. Her two small and delicate feet were a little cold under the hem of her skirt.

Alvin reached out and held her white and tender feet. The warmth from his palm seemed to make Sakura Matou feel warm, and her body stopped shaking so much.

She subconsciously looked down at the black-robed Servant kneeling beside her and heard him continue:

"If you don't mind, you can stay here for the time being. After the Holy Grail War is over, I will send you back to the Tohsaka family."

Sakura Matou was slightly stunned, feeling a little hesitant and timid.

Although she was not aware of the power of the Matou family, she knew that if she continued to stay here, it might cause trouble for the two of them.

"Don't worry, if you want to stay... no one will take you away." Alvin said with a smile.

Alvin doesn't think he is a saint, the Matou family has a huge influence in Fuyuki, and Matou Zouken is a monster who has lived for hundreds of years.

If he were an ordinary person, he might hesitate for a moment about whether he should save Sakura Matou and take her home tonight.

After all, saving her would mean becoming an enemy of the Matou family.

But Alvin inherited the White Dragon's panel after all... There is no problem as long as he does what he wants to do to the best of his ability.

He doesn't expect to save the world, as long as he has a clear conscience.

Perhaps it was the warmth of the boy's palm that reached her body or something, but Sakura Matou's originally uneasy look finally calmed down.

Many years later, when the grown-up Sakura Matou reads "The Legend of King Arthur" and the story of the White Dragon, she will always think of the night of the Fourth Holy Grail War, recall the boy's reassuring smile and the warmth in his palm - and long for the Holy Grail War to come again.

Aika Sajo walked into the living room carrying a plate from the kitchen. When she saw Alvin holding Sakura Matou's feet, she couldn't help but glance at him with some concern.

She quickly put on a smile and said, "Have some cookies."

Sakura Matou is still young after all... No matter what, she has no reason to be jealous of a loli.

She sat next to Sakura Matou, then reached out and took off the white mask on the boy's face.

"Don't wear it when you're at home." Saijo Aika said with a smile.

The three of them sat on the sofa, enjoying hot winter tea and cookies, and they felt a sense of peace and tranquility.

But such peaceful times did not last long.

dong dong...

Suddenly there was a slight knock on the door outside.

Aika Sajo raised her eyes casually, glanced at the flying insects outside the glass window, and was about to get up.

Alvin reached out and gently touched her head, saying, "I'll go open the door. You and Sakura can eat first."

"It just so happens that I want to see if there are any other guests who have come to visit us at this late hour."

dong dong.

dong dong dong...

It was a kind of continuous knocking sound, accompanied by the sound of countless insects' wings as thin as paper flapping, so dense that even an ordinary person would feel a tingling sensation on the scalp when hearing this sound.

Matou Kariya stood at the door of the room. After the Holy Grail War began, the man's hair turned completely white in just one night, and even his face looked much older.

It's no wonder. For a magician, magic is their life. Among all the masters, Matou Kariya's magical talent is very poor.

If it weren't for Matou Zouken's forcible intervention and overdrawing of his vitality, perhaps Matou Kariya would not even be qualified to participate in the Holy Grail War.

However, even so, he still did not summon the "white dragon" that Matou Zouken mentioned tonight.

Am I too weak...?

On the way of following Matou Zouken to leave the Matou family, Matou Kariya kept asking himself this question.

"It seems you're quite unconvinced, Kariya."

At the stairs, Zouken Matou, who was wearing a traditional kimono and had an old and gloomy face, seemed very satisfied with Matou Kariya's reaction, and a terrifying smile appeared on his face intentionally or unintentionally.

"I'm very pleased. At least compared to those useless losers in the Matou family, you are more ambitious..."

Although he said so, he had never had high expectations for Matou Kariya from the very beginning regarding summoning the White Dragon.

Because he had been to ancient Britain and had heard all kinds of stories about the dragon, Matou Zouken knew very well that it would be difficult for a descendant like him to summon the dragon with his "capacity".

Because Matou Kariya is too weak.

Participating in the Holy Grail War, summoning servants, and overdrawing his own vitality, all of this was done by Matou Sakura and her biological mother, Tousaka Aoi.

In order to save Matou Sakura, for the sake of someone else's wife, he would rather overdraw himself...

'Kind', 'strong sense of justice', or 'suck-up', 'thinking with your lower body'... This man's reputation can be said to be polarized.

But in fact, this is the complexity of human nature. Of course, Zouken Matou doesn't care about the reason why his descendant participated in the Holy Grail War. Anyway, for him, as long as he can be used well, it is enough.

However, his weakness might become the biggest 'foreshadowing' of the Holy Grail War... Matou Zouken narrowed his eyes and said grimly, "Kariya, I'll give you one chance."

"It's the Holy Grail War now, and Sakura knows something about the 'Holy Grail'... If ordinary citizens of Fuyuki knew about this, it would inevitably cause unnecessary trouble."

Zouken Matou slowly walked up the stairs. His steps were extremely slow and difficult, like an old man who was about to die, his life was just a candle in the wind.

He was hunched over, his eyes, as pale as a dead man's, staring silently at his offspring. He said slowly, "After taking Sakura away, kill them."

Matou Kariya's pupils suddenly dilated. In the Fourth Holy Grail War, if every magus had his own unique "talent", then Matou Kariya was an ordinary person in the true sense.

Although he was born in the Matou family, he resolutely severed his relationship with magic because of his kind nature. If it were not for Matou Sakura and her daughter, Matou Kariya would never have returned to the Matou family.

Let him kill a family of ordinary people in exchange for Matou Sakura's safety...

There was no time for Matou Kariya to think, because the next moment, Matou Zouken had walked to the door and knocked.

Then, the old man slowly retreated a few steps with his cane and said sinisterly, "Not being able to summon the white dragon is already a failure on your part. If you fail again this time... you should know what will happen to Sakura, Kariya."

The words were extremely calm, yet they contained an undisguised threat and chill.

The Matou family does not have a decent bloodline, so Matou Zouken places his hopes on Matou Sakura.

However, the inheritance of magic of the Matou family requires the transformation of Matou Sakura's body first - at the cost of the crest bug gnawing at her body.

If he can win the final victory in the Holy Grail War, he will give up using the Crest Worms to transform Matou Sakura's body... This is the condition that Matou Zouken agreed to Matou Kariya.

Of course, this honest man probably didn't expect that during his participation in the Holy Grail War, Sakura Matou had already been sent to the insect warehouse, being gnawed by the cresting insects day and night until she was completely desperate in the end.

"Are there any guests visiting so late?"

While Matou Kariya was still making his decision, someone in the house pushed open the door, accompanied by a young man's gentle voice.

He was wearing a black robe and a hood on his head that covered most of his face, but one could still vaguely see the boy's quite handsome face. Under the hood, a pair of eyes that seemed to be painted with ink were looking at him quietly.

It's actually a 'child'...? Matou Kariya couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.

"Kareya, aren't you going to take action yet?"

From behind came the old and impatient urging voice of Matou Zouken.

Matou Kariya's heart trembled slightly, and the expression on his face became more and more struggling.

Do you really want to attack an ordinary person?

For the happiness of Sakura and Aoi, he is even willing to sacrifice others...?

But if I don't take action, Zōken will definitely not let Sakura go...

Matou Zouken stood behind him, silently watching Matou Kariya with a struggling expression, and narrowed his eyes slightly.

It seems that he still needs a push...

Thinking of this, Matou Zouken raised his cane and tapped the floor lightly.
