Type-Moon: Root Seiko

Who entered that passage? Who went to the source?

...Tokiomi Tohsaka didn't ask, and Rozen didn't say anything either.

He smoothly scalded the teacups, placed them on the coffee table, and poured two cups of tea.

Even without a wife, he could skillfully brew tea, truly embodying elegance.

So, what should we say next?

Luo Zhen was waiting for Shi Chen to ask.

"...Is there anything I can do?"

Tokiomi put down the teacup he had just taken a sip from and clasped his hands together.

He looked at Luo Zhen sincerely: "For the future of Fuyuki City, for my two daughters, is there anything I can do?"

Chapter 141 Aigo and I Unite! (4k)

"Yes, there is." Luo Zhen said earnestly.

This is not just polite talk.

Throughout the entire Holy Grail War, Rozen basically used Tokiomi Tohsaka as a pretext to intervene.

The contract between Tokiomi Tohsaka and Touko has been completely nullified.

Even if he's slow on the uptake, he should realize by now that he's been tricked from the very beginning.

But that's one good thing about Tokiomi Tohsaka: his indomitable spirit is truly commendable.

This is a gentleman who clearly recognizes his own mediocrity, works diligently to accumulate strength, and demonstrates elegance through the efforts of others.

Luo Zhen was quite willing to help such a down-to-earth and hardworking scholar, especially since he was also the father of Xiao Lin and Xiao Ying.

Luo Zhenru said, "In the near future, the entire magic world will undergo tremendous changes."

"At that time, magicians all over the world will focus their attention on Fuyuki City."

"The Clock Tower, the Wandering Sea, the Atlas Institute. Whether they are eccentric or worldly magicians, they will all begin to pay attention to Fuyuki City, which will become a bridgehead that influences the course of human affairs."

“…Lord Luo?” Tokiomi was so shocked that he forgot to breathe.

Although he was mentally prepared, thinking about what grand ambitions this young man who had won the Holy Grail War might have.

But he really hadn't prepared that much.

He had initially thought that Luo Zhen would at most ask for the Tohsaka family's assets, or for his full cooperation in future research, or something like that...

How did this get involved with the three major organizations in the magic world? Does he really want to openly challenge them?!

"Several heroic spirits remained in the mortal world, and I helped them complete their physical transformation."

Luo Zhen calmly dropped another bombshell.

"I've also become a holder of the Third Magic and am now a legitimate mage. Aoko is currently staying at my house; she's the mage who holds the Fifth Magic."

"...Please wait a moment, I'll have Aoi get me the first aid kit..."

Mr. Tokiomi Tohsaka is having trouble breathing; he needs to take two heart medications right away.

Luo Zhen continued, "I'm going to Germany soon, and then I have to go to the Clock Tower. I probably won't be able to return to Fuyuki for a while."

"During this period, the daily management of Fuyuki City will still be left to you, Mr. Tokiomi. In particular, you can start preparing the teaching materials for the magic class at the newly rebuilt Homurahara Academy. Let's set up a magic department in this school."

"What?!" Tokiomi's voice cracked. "Opening a magic school in Fuyuki City?! Stealing business from the Clock Tower?!"

"Yes, I've already invited Sister Hier to enroll with me."

Luo Zhen smiled happily.

Actually, Luo Zhen originally wanted to invite Xier to be a teacher, because Luo Zhen really felt that she was the type of person who was very suitable for taking care of children.

But Hier repeatedly emphasized that he was only 17 years old.

She's still young, she can do it! (€€€€€€)

Therefore, Hierer insisted on transferring to the school as a student and then secretly protected the safety of the school's teachers and students, preventing outside magicians from intruding.

"In the near future, the Tower at the End of the World will surely become an open secret."

Luo Zhen crossed his arms: "I will ensure that no force in this world will ever again covet Fuyuki City."

"But this will definitely take time. It also requires a lot of resources and connections to resolve the conflict between ordinary people and magicians, which is something only you, Mr. Tokiomi, can do."

"After things stabilize, I'm thinking of starting to research tools to popularize magic. By combining the Third Method with the Tower at the End of the World, I hope to further generalize the mystical and achieve an effect similar to the revival of spiritual energy. This way, more people can come into contact with magic, and perhaps it can even be used to generate electricity, becoming a renewable and clean energy source."

"……I do not understand."

Tokiomi was genuinely confused.

There's a common saying in the magic world: the more people who understand a mystery, the more that mystery deteriorates and weakens.

Magic is magic precisely because no one can understand its principles.

In the ordinary world of magic, guarding the secrets of one's magic is the most basic obligation of every family.

Therefore, those who recklessly probe the principles of other people's magic tricks, and even actively steal and analyze them, are the most despised and feared in the magic world. They are often called hyenas or predatory lords.

Therefore, Tokiomi really doesn't understand why Rōjin would actively try to spread the mystery. What is he after?

"Because I like magic."

Luo Zhen smiled frankly: "Touko also likes magic. As you know, Mr. Tokiomi, Touko was only able to devote herself to the field of magic she loves after being abandoned by her grandfather. Originally, the magic of the Aozaki family had nothing to do with Norse runes or puppetry. Touko only started to learn these fields on her own after she became an adult."

"Although she might hit me if I said this, I am indeed quite grateful to the old man of the Aozaki family for giving up on letting her inherit magic. Magicians are all a group of fanatical seekers of knowledge, and the desire for knowledge is the only core reason that drives them, so they can do anything for it, right?"

However.

Luo Zhenru said, "Magicians shouldn't worry about this anymore. Anyone who wants to get to the root of the problem should come to me."

"I will ban all magicians from conducting research that disregards human life and establish a unified convention for the magic world. Then, I will gradually popularize magic so that people who love magic can study it as a discipline."

"If anyone still wants to follow the ancient methods to reach the source, instead of going to great lengths to pave their own way, they should come to me, and I will accommodate them as appropriate."

"...So, why?"

Tokiomi Tohsaka's mouth was dry; he struggled to breathe in the scalding air, feeling the burning pain in his throat.

"Luo Zhenjun, what benefit do you get from this?... Just because you like magic?"

"Not entirely. How can this be explained..."

Luo Zhen lowered his head and thought for a while.

Then he came up with a brilliant answer and confidently raised his eyes.

"I want to see what that future will be like. It sounds like it will be very exciting, and it will feel like we're exploring the unknown, right?"

-----------------

Thus, Luo Zhen's visit to the Tohsaka family came to an end.

Luo Zhen solemnly returned Rin and Sakura to the Tohsaka couple and said goodbye to them.

Before leaving, Sakura chased after her with reluctance.

"do not go……"

The soft, warm little angel nestled into Luo Zhen's arms.

Her tears soaked Luo Zhen's clothes, and her voice trembled as she pleaded.

"Sakura, I want to stay with Brother Luo Zhen forever... Please, stay! Sakura can do anything, Sakura wants to stay with Brother Luo Zhen..."

"Yes, I want to too." Luo Zhen gently patted Xiao Ying's hair.

He kissed the soft, cuddly little angel on the forehead, looking into her big, downcast eyes:

"It will definitely happen in the future. I won't be away for long, I'll be back soon."

"Once I've sorted out all the troubles outside, I'll come back to Fuyuki. Then I'll take the teacher's exam and become your teacher, Sakura, okay? From now on, you'll have to call me Teacher Luo Zhen at school, okay?"

"Luo Zhen, teacher..."

Sakura, with her exceptional talent, immediately opened her eyes wide with longing.

If you can keep seeing Luo Zhen at school, you can certainly continue living together after school (?).

That means being able to be with Brother Luo Zhen 24 hours a day, never being separated from him from the moment he wakes up (??).

Sakura was very satisfied with the cake, and nodded with tears of joy: "Yes! Sakura is waiting for Brother Luo Zhen... Teacher Luo Zhen!"

"When Sakura grows up, she'll marry Mr. Ryouma and become his bride! We'll be students, teachers, sisters, brothers, wives, husbands, and a family!"

“Sakura?! We clearly agreed that we weren’t allowed to run away?!” Rin panicked.

This girl was just trying hard to hold back her tears, wanting to show a more mature and reliable elder sister demeanor.

But to her surprise, her own younger sister tried to trick and ambush her! She was the older sister, a year her senior!

Xiao Lin immediately rushed up, refusing to let anyone leave, and tugged at Luo Zhen's sleeve: "Me too! You're not allowed to run away after winning!"

"Whether it's Ishtar, Artoria, Jeanne d'Arc... or Irene-neechan, or Aya-neechan, or even Touko-san! I will never lose! Wait for me for another ten years! (€€>€€<€€)"

Luo Zhen: "Uh... I'd be very willing to wait. But Rin, you'd better not call her 'Auntie' in front of Orange, or I'm afraid you won't have a chance to grow up."
