I adopted a child demon from the Gap, and I'm a special agent for the Bureau of Supernatural Ab

Seriously, what on earth happened? Why did it suddenly start burning up...?

Squeezing through the crowded throng, Rin ran to the front of the cordon. The guards on this side happened to recognize the sixth team and let Rin pass directly to the barrier.

"Sixth group, Rin Tohsaka. What's going on?"

Approaching the officer in charge of the blockade, Rin revealed her identity card and immediately inquired about the current situation.

"The fire started two hours ago, but the Tohsaka residence is well-protected, and the house wasn't damaged too much," the executive in charge said to Rin with a tense expression. "However, we haven't completely broken through this barrier yet. It's too complex, and we don't have enough magicians of sufficient number and skill level."

"You haven't been able to break it in two hours, what are you guys doing?"

With a curse, Rin Tohsaka walked directly to the barrier and, upon sensing it, immediately noticed something was wrong.

"This barrier... is a barrier technique of the Matou family. Did Kirei Kotomine steal Zouken Matou's technique? No wonder, it's normal that those lazy magicians at headquarters can't break a technique that isn't documented in detail."

But I'm not exactly good at breaking through barriers...

Slightly anxious, Lin roared and struck the barrier with her palm, attempting to shatter it. Unexpectedly, her hand passed right through the barrier, and under a suction force, she fell directly into it.

Kirei Kotomine, you actually set up a barrier that's open to me?

Filled with rage, Rin rushed towards the Tohsaka residence without hesitation, broke down the door, and stormed into the burning house.

"Cough-cough-"

Acrid smoke enveloped Rin's mouth and nose in the next moment.

The Tohsaka residence, being the home of the Tohsaka family, is imbued with multiple magical seals. A typical fire would be extinguished before it even starts. However, this fire was clearly problematic, actually spreading into the house. Rin glanced around and saw that most of the furniture was already reduced to ashes.

Damn it, this is all money!

The family's gemstone business had been struggling lately, and these pieces of furniture were all high-end custom-made, each one incredibly expensive. They could have easily been sold to raise money should the family go bankrupt, but now they'd been burned to ashes. It hurt so much, it hurt so much; Rin felt like she couldn't breathe from the pain.

We must tear that bastard Kirei Kotomine to pieces!

Filled with unparalleled rage, Rin rampaged through the room, finally sensing the presence of other people as she approached the training ground.

Is this it?

Rin took out her protective gem and opened the training ground's doors. Inside, Tokiomi Tohsaka lay against the wall, clutching a wound in his abdomen, panting and unable to stand. On the other side, Aoi and Sakura were embracing each other, sitting on the ground. In the center of the training ground, the tall man she knew stood with his back to her. He seemed to hear her enter and slowly turned around.

"You're so slow, Rin. I thought you would have arrived at least thirty minutes ago."

"Stop using such intimate terms to address me. We're not close enough to call each other by our first names!"

"……cold?"

Gone is his elegance; sitting awkwardly against the wall, Tokiomi Tohsaka struggles to lift his head and look at Rin Tohsaka, who is confronting Kirei Kotomine.

"How could someone like you possibly defeat my father? What did you do? What underhanded tricks did you use to make him lose?"

Gripping the gem tightly in her hand, Rin spoke fiercely.

“Isn’t it obvious?” Kirei Kotomine smiled maliciously. “I was defeated by my mentor, then surrendered to him, and finally took advantage of his inattention to defeat him with a sneak attack.”

As he spoke, he raised his right hand and showed a blade to Rin Tohsaka.

"I used this very knife, the one my mentor gave me, to stab him inside his body. How about that? Pretty interesting, right?"

"You bastard!"

Without hesitation, Rin activated the gem in her hand and charged straight at Kirei Kotomine. A violent clash of light and magic erupted as the two began to fight.

And then, almost the instant the bodies made contact, Rin was put at a disadvantage.

This guy has an amazing physique...

In close combat, Rin was completely overwhelmed, forced to retreat by Kirei Kotomine. Despite using magic as an aid, it was utterly ineffective against Kirei.

"Well!"

With a muffled groan, Rin, who had been punched in the stomach by Kirei Kotomine, was sent flying backward, sliding several meters across the floor.

"What amazing talent, Rin," Kirei Kotomine said with a hint of surprise. "To have this level of strength at such a young age, if you continue to grow, you will surely achieve something truly remarkable. You are far more gifted than your father."

“However,” Kirei Kotomine said, changing the subject, “this opportunity is about to be nipped in the bud by my own hands.”

"Don't you dare hurt Rin!"

With a roar brimming with rage, Tokiomi Tohsaka suddenly stood up, brandishing flames in his hands, and lunged straight at Kirei Kotomine, who had his back to him and seemed completely unprepared, before being kicked to the ground.

"If you're going to launch a sneak attack, at least make it look like one. What's the point of yelling it out so I can be on guard? My mentor, aren't you being incredibly disrespectful?"

Stepping on Tokiomi's chest, Kirei Kotomine looked at the other's pained and distorted face, a face that should have been elegant, but instead, an uncontrollable smile of pleasure bloomed on it.

Yes, that's who I am, that's who pursues evil. You and my father have both been guiding and deceiving me, making me live a painful and meaningless life for countless days.

But now, I am free. I have found what I want to pursue. Back then, I used my father's blood to find my path, so today, I will use you, my mentor, and the lives of your entire family, as the end of this path!

"Let go... Father..."

Rin, crawling laboriously on the ground, was trying her best to crawl towards him.

A terrified Kui stumbled to her feet and mustered her courage to rush forward.

Sakura was too young and too timid. She just sat on the ground, trembling with fear and at a loss.

It's so incredibly joyful to see this family being tormented like this by me, to see everyone's fear, anger, and despair—all of it is so pleasurable, so exhilarating. It truly makes me feel like my whole being—

This is so incredibly fun!!

"Hmph hmph hmph, hmph hmph hmph, hmph hmph ha ha ha ha ha!"

With a sudden stomp of his foot, Kirei Kotomine, who was standing beneath him, showed an even more pained expression. He grinned and laughed maniacally, like a monster in a horror movie, his expression resembling that of a comical clown.

"How about it, my mentor, the disciple you painstakingly nurtured, your chosen successor, is about to kill you."

Seeing that Tokiomi Tohsaka was speechless, Kirei Kotomine felt an overwhelming sense of joy.

"I will not only kill you, I will also kill your wife, kill your two daughters, and I will completely destroy everything you have, leaving nothing behind!"

With a sudden stomp of his foot, Kirei Kotomine prepared to crush Tokiomi's chest. The desperate screams and cries of Aoi and Rin sounded like beautiful music to him, a pleasure he found exceptionally enjoyable.

And the sound of burning, the scorching heat, the billowing smoke—this was a funeral, a funeral for every member of the Tohsaka family, a funeral bestowed by him. Just like the howling wind…

Hmm, the sound of whistling wind?

Before Kirei Kotomine could react, in that brief moment, an arrow pierced the barrier, passed through the door kicked open by Rin, through the burning corridor, through the burning room door, through the charred wall, and swiftly struck Kirei Kotomine directly.

Blood splattered everywhere.

Section 62, Chapter 19: The End and the Engagement

"Um, uh..."

With an incredulous look in his eyes, Kirei Kotomine swayed and stumbled a few steps.

The arrow didn't hit a vital spot and didn't kill him. However, although he didn't die immediately, his left lung was pierced, and he began to have difficulty breathing.

Is it possible to directly break through the barrier and snipe?

Without any warning or sound, the arrow struck him suddenly. Blood immediately rushed into his lungs from the wound, and with each breath, he felt unbearable pain, giving him an increasingly intense feeling of suffocation.

How...how did he do that...?

Outside the burning Tohsaka residence, on the rooftop of a nearby building, Wuming, holding a longbow, breathed a sigh of relief and revealed a slightly mocking smile.

By projecting Kiritsugu's Origin Bullet and combining it with the projected arrow, we can create an arrow with extremely low magic-breaking properties. This idea has finally succeeded.

Emiya Kiritsugu, the adoptive father of Emiya Mumei, possesses the talents of "severing" and "combining." To maximize their use, he removed a portion of his ribs and crafted a weapon called "Origin Bullet," which can destroy the physical structure of enemies, especially mages, and has an extremely strong destructive effect on magical structures.

Originally rare due to its materials, it was intended as a trump card weapon against mages. However, thanks to the tireless efforts of his adopted son, Nameless Emiya, its composition was eventually deciphered, allowing for mass production via projection. The only limitation is that the projectile type cannot be changed for the time being. Even so, it greatly enhances Kiritsugu Emiya's combat capabilities, leading him to even begin developing a rapid-fire version of the Origin Bullet weapon.

Meanwhile, Emiya Mumei, whose main fighting style is close-quarters combat and long-range sniping, was also thinking about how to make better use of this technique. After a number of failures, this highly effective Demon-Slaying Arrow was born. And its effect in the first battle was obviously quite perfect.

Watching the barrier slowly disappear after it was broken, and the heavily armed police officers and action team members pouring into it, Emiya Wuming chuckled, released the longbow he had created with magic, turned around, flicked his sleeve, and left silently.

Inside the Tohsaka residence, under the combined counterattack of Tokiomi Tohsaka and Rin Tohsaka, Kirei Kotomine, who was already seriously injured, was completely defeated and lay on the ground on the verge of death, clearly not long for this world.

"Why...why have you become like this, Kirei..."

Clutching his wound, Tokiomi, who was being helped to stand by Rin, looked at Kirei Kotomine lying on the ground with a complicated expression.

"Hmph, hmph—"

With his mouth split open, letting blood seep out, Kirei Kotomine looked at Tokiomi Tohsaka standing in front of him with an expression of utter ease and pleasure.

"That expression is really good. Just watch me die with that expression, my mentor."

Kirei Kotomine's smile gradually froze, and his pupils dilated. He died with a strange, unseeing smile on his face, and stopped breathing on the cold ground.

At that moment, the police officers finally burst in, and a cacophony of noise began to echo through the charred remains of the Tohsaka residence.

…………

"So, you guys actually managed to create such a big news story while we were on vacation?"

Looking at the numerous reports in the newspaper about the Tohsaka Otaku incident, Li Cheng raised an eyebrow and looked at Wuming sitting directly opposite him.

“If it weren’t for Tokiomi Tohsaka’s arrogance, things wouldn’t have escalated to this extent,” Wuming said helplessly after taking a sip of strong coffee. “I was almost able to catch him, but Tokiomi Tohsaka ran away, giving that guy a chance to escape, and in the end, things got so out of hand.”

"Never mind, it's good that it's resolved."

"It's been resolved, but it's the kind of resolution that makes headlines. Who knows how the media will turn things upside down? Everyone's speculating about the truth now. Some people online are even spreading rumors that Tokiomi Tohsaka and Kirei Kotomine were a loving couple, and that Aoi Tohsaka stole him away."

"Given Tokiomi Tohsaka's personality, he probably won't look too pleased to see this description..."

"Hmm, now that you mention it, I'm starting to look forward to it."

The thought of Tokiomi Tohsaka, a man who always maintained his elegance and composure, facing the various ridiculous comments about him online, made both of them feel a strange sense of amusement and amusement.
