People in Type-Moon start from adopting Sakura

A boy and a girl met each other when they were young. They grew up together and had an extremely deep affection for each other since childhood.

If a romance novel follows normal development, the boy and girl should grow up slowly like this, and then one day after they become adults, fall in love with each other, form a happy family, and live a happy life from then on.

According to common sense in novels, this is indeed the case, but, but...

I'm sorry, the story in the book develops beautifully, but the reality is cruel. This is not a world full of love and happiness. The unknown is the main theme.

One day, when the boy and girl had grown up, a strange young man broke into their world, and everything about the boy and girl changed because of that young man.

The young man was tall, handsome, and rich, with an elegant temperament. He came from the most prestigious family in the city. He launched a fierce offensive against the boy's childhood sweetheart, completely destroying the boy's ordinary life.

Even though the boy had already seen through the other person's true nature, he knew that this man was definitely not a good person and would not let the girl be happy.

But the naive girl was really moved by the other party's pursuit and really fell in love with the man. This means... Matou Kariya, ahem, it should be said that the boy's love was snatched away by someone else, and his childhood sweetheart lost to the man who came from the sky.

Although, although the boy knew that he actually had a chance, the girl was not completely impressed by the man.

However, due to various reasons, especially family problems, the teenager had to choose to withdraw.

This does not mean that things developed like the plot in a cool movie, where the man used his family's power to drive the boy away, but it was because of the boy's own family. The boy's family was not a good thing, and some of them could even be called dark and bastards. If, if the girl really married him, could she really be happy?

At the final moment, when the outcome was decided, Matou Kariya hesitated...

He thought of that damn old bug and then of his lover, and the scene of her not being able to find happiness after marrying into the Matou family unconsciously emerged in his mind.

So even though he was unwilling and couldn't let go of that love, he made concessions for the other person's happiness. He quietly left the city one night and announced his withdrawal. It was not until the other person got married and had children that he dared to come back in shame to see her now.

however……

That damn scumbag didn't even cherish the happiness he had been longing for, and gave his own daughter to another family as an adopted daughter, just to obtain that family's magic seal.

Yes, that man is a complete magician and a bastard.

In fact, the demonic family that the man had his eyes on at first turned out to be the boy's family, a family that the boy had abandoned and hated.

One night, the boy's phone rang. It was a number that hadn't rung in years, and it was a name he would never forget...

The young man tremblingly picked up the phone and learned about this incident. Then, he was filled with righteous indignation and cursed the man as a bastard. He hurried back to his home, hoping that everything was still in time.

Fortunately, I don’t know if it was God’s mercy or some other reason…

The girl he cared about was not sent to the devil's den in his own home, which made Matou Kariya feel relieved.

But this does not mean that everything is happy, because the girl was sent to another family.

In this regard, the boy who was still worried about the girl actually used his abilities to find out the girl's foster family in Fuyuki City, and then secretly followed them, wanting to do his best to take the girl away quietly to prevent her from being persecuted by the magic family.

There is nothing good about magicians.

Born into a mage family and having witnessed what Tōsaka Tokiomi did, Matou Kariya can no longer trust so-called magicians.

Although he has given up his happiness and no longer has any dreams, at this moment he also wants to do his best to protect the girl's dreams and happiness?

Then, he was caught by Luo Wei on the spot.

That day, when he was going back, Luo Wei was stunned when he saw that the guy following him was actually the unlucky guy Matou Kariya. He couldn't imagine how this guy would appear here.

After some interrogation and learning the reason, he couldn't help but feel speechless about the man in this tragic drama, and for a moment he didn't know how to deal with it.

After some consideration, he decided to make some good use of this man and use him to play a role in the Holy Grail War.

So, the two of them completed their alliance that night.

Matou Kariya is responsible for returning to the Matou family to serve as the master of this generation, and then obeying Luo Wei's orders. Luo Wei will give him the possibility to kill the old bug who destroyed his life and happiness, as well as a chance to compete with Tōsaka Tokiomi.

Although Matou Kariya knew that Luo Wei wanted to use him as a tool and a pawn, but...

So what?

A boy? No, he had already become a man, a man of integrity. His past weaknesses be damned. He wouldn't back down again. This time, he was determined to do what he hadn't been able to do before: save this abandoned girl, knock that damned scumbag down with a single punch, and then grab him by the collar and give him a proper lecture.

"Where did you go when you promised Aoi happiness? Where did you go?!"

……

Kenneth was silent.

Finn couldn't help but hold his forehead and sigh.

“It hurts, it really hurts…”

Although it was clearly not him, he still resonated with it in his heart.

On the other side, Rider didn't find this sad story interesting at all. He ran directly to Berserker and started recruiting him again. Scathach left without looking back.

Waver couldn't help but cover his face as he watched the Masters and Heroic Spirits of the family each doing their own thing.

"Didn't you say you were in a hurry? Why are you in the mood to listen to a story here?"

Unlike Finn, although he was affected by the emotions, Kenneth couldn't help but feel a little confused...

According to his opinion, there seemed to be nothing wrong with what the man named Toosaka did. Although he was unable to produce two inheritances due to his incompetence, there was indeed nothing wrong with his choice.

Moreover, the little girl who was sent out was obviously his own apprentice, that is, Sakura Tohsaka adopted by Luo Wei. Kenneth was actually somewhat grateful to him for receiving such a little genius, but Matou Kariya's emotional expression was undoubtedly from the heart and absolutely true.

So he didn't know how to persuade her, after all, he was the beneficiary.

From Matou Kariya's perspective, Tōsaka Tokiomi is undoubtedly a scumbag. He had clearly snatched the girl's love from him, but now he was hurting her so much and unable to give her happiness. This was an unforgivable behavior.

From Tohsaka Tokiomi's perspective, Tohsaka Sakura is a treasure of the magic path. He cannot bear to bury her talent. He wants to do his best to send her on the path of magic, which is what a father should do. Everything he does is for his daughter's happiness.

It's just a conflict of ideas between normal people and magicians, which is actually very common.

only……

This time, Kenneth stood firmly on the side of Matou Kariya. After all, he was not alone anymore. If someone took away his beloved woman and hurt her so much, he would definitely fight him to the death.

So even though Matou Kariya looks a little silly, he still agrees with his spirit of daring to love and hate for women.

Not to mention, that guy Tōsaka Tokiomi had just teamed up with others to attack his workshop, and Matou Kariya was their enemy.

The enemy of my enemy is my friend, so there is no need to choose.

Then, Kenneth held Matou Kariya's hand and said with a serious face.

"Don't worry, Matou-kun. As a man about to get married, I understand your feelings and can approve of your actions. I have already witnessed Tōsaka Tokiomi's despicable behavior, and I cannot bear it if I don't speak out. Since you are my apprentice's helper, you are naturally my ally."

"So, I plan to rest for two days to build up my strength, and then launch a crusade against the Tōsaka family on the third night to avenge what he did tonight! What do you think? Matou-kun, are you interested in joining us?"

"Of course, that's exactly what I want!"

Hearing Kenneth's invitation, Matou Kariya shook the other party's outstretched hand without any hesitation, and then spoke with a sincere face.

If what was said before may be false, this sentence is absolutely true.

As long as there is a way to beat Tōsaka Tokiomi or cause trouble for him, Matou Kariya must go to help.

Chapter 8: Gas Explosion (K words)

[——Just like the sun breaking through the darkness, dawn quietly crosses the horizon.]

……

……

Time flies by quickly, and in the blink of an eye it is already daytime.

Early morning in Fuyuki City.

【Morningmorningmorning——】

After a lively and noisy night, the TV is currently broadcasting important news about the fire and explosion at the Hyatt Hotel last night.

"Good morning, everyone! This is the morning news report from Fuyuki City Radio. At 3:00 a.m. today, a serious fire and explosion occurred at the Hyatt Regency, the city's most luxurious four-star hotel, resulting in numerous casualties. Police and relevant experts have determined that the cause of the explosion was a gas leak..."

A remote base in Fuyuki City. No, this place was not remote to Waver. After all, this was the home of the old couple he had been staying with.

At this moment, having recovered from a night of rest after completing his treatment with Finn's specially provided Water of Life, Kenneth was eating the unpalatable toast and eggs on the table, trying to regain as much strength and energy as possible. Waver was the one responsible for cooking for him. The television was broadcasting the night before, showing the massive brawl between multiple Servants and the tragic battlefield under Emiya Kiritsugu's bombardment.

After the base was blown up by Kiritsugu Emiya last night, thanks to Scathach's runes and Iskandar's inherent barrier, Kenneth's losses were not maximized. The three-story important building with three magic furnaces was saved from the explosion, and they were transferred to a safe place overnight.

As for the specific location...

Kenneth absolutely cannot trust the Matou family, so there is no way he can go there.

And since the hotel had been bombed, Kenneth didn't plan to stay in a hotel anymore, so he followed Weber and condescended to a small house, preparing to settle down there.

Initially, Waver had refused outright. After all, the Holy Grail War was too dangerous, and he didn't want to involve the kind old couple.

But Kenneth was able to help him solve this worry. He wrote out several checks with lots of zeros on them, and then added a magic trick to make the old couple believe that they had won a big prize for an overseas trip. They flew away overnight, leaving only Weber to look after the house.

Thus, this bizarre scene appeared before our eyes.

"This toast, these eggs... they're so disgusting that I can't eat them."

Kenneth frowned at the mushy toast and eggs on his plate. For someone who had grown up in luxury, eating something like this was pure torture. Kenneth's condition suggested he could only make a simple breakfast. Weber, who had absolutely no cooking experience, frowned wildly, his heart aching with fear.

However, this time Kenneth did not scold him as usual, or directly deny the results of his efforts. Instead, he endured the discomfort and ate it with water.

"Although it's extremely unpalatable, these are extraordinary times, and it's not the time for me to continue to be picky about the food. Anyway, thank you for your hard work, Weber. Come and eat together."

He wiped his mouth and called Weber to come sit down and eat.

"Eh?"

Hearing Kenneth's words, Weber's eyes were slightly stunned, and then an incredible expression appeared on his face.

It was hard to imagine that the words just now came from Teacher Kenneth, so I secretly glanced at Kenneth.

"What's wrong? Is there anything else you want?"

Kenneth frowned when he noticed Weber's strange look and was about to say something, but the reporter's report on TV suddenly attracted their attention.

"Although it's said to be a gas leak, residents nearby reported seeing something resembling a missile flying in the sky above Fuyuki City last night, and sparks from an explosion on the walls of the Hyatt Hotel. Furthermore, one resident even claimed to have seen a three-story building defy the laws of physics, hovering in mid-air before vanishing... This resident even took some photos."

The next moment, the host took out a few photos from his pocket, which were very blurry because his hands were shaking when taking them.

"Teacher Kenneth...could that be ours..."

Seeing the scene in the photo, Weber asked tremblingly.

Because those photos not only showed buildings floating in the air, but also the silhouette of a chariot swooping down to the ground riding on thunder.

There was no doubt that was what they had done last night.

"Wow, I didn't expect that my heroic performance last night would be seen again, and it was even filmed and shown on TV? That's really great... Although the film is a bit blurry, it really shows off my aura."

Iskandar touched his chin, not paying any attention to Kenneth and Weber who were beside him and were worried because they learned that the commotion last night was too loud and even led to a large-scale mysterious leak.

Seeing this scene, Kenneth now cursed Tōsaka Tokiomi and Emiya Kiritsugu who were causing the trouble in his heart.

There is no doubt that the flying object seen by the pedestrians is Kiritsugu Emiya's continuous RPG, and the thunder captured is Iskandar's Noble Phantasm - the God Wheel.

It was all Tōsaka Tokiomi and Emiya Kiritsugu's fault. They were so reckless that they completely disregarded the rules of the Holy Grail War and blew up a famous building in Fuyuki City in order to win.

Although it was a headache, it was not their turn to deal with these things. After all, this was Fuyuki City. Since such a big mess had occurred, the ones who should have the most headaches were the supervisor in charge of this place and Tōsaka Tokiomi.

Look, the person in charge of handling the scene is here, right?

"In response to this situation, our TV station has invited Father Kotomine Kirei, a priest from Fuyuki City Cathedral who is also a geologist, chemist, and theologian, to provide answers. Hello, Father Kotomine, can you explain to us what the floating attic and the Thunder Chariot that are suspended in the sky are?"

"It's a gas leak." Kotomine Kirei took the microphone handed to him by the beautiful host and spoke calmly. Then he took back the stack of photos while the beautiful host was obviously confused.

"Cough cough..."

The beautiful host was obviously choked by Kotomine Kirei's answer. She looked at him in disbelief, and she didn't know where to start complaining in her heart.

Such serious nonsense? How could a gas leak produce a blue lightning flash and send a building soaring into the sky that a street-level viewer could see it? Even if you're trying to fool people, you have to come up with a plausible excuse, right?

However, Kotomine Kirei had no intention of paying any attention to the host's mood, and continued to answer on his own: "According to the diligent investigation of our relevant personnel, there was an extremely serious leak in the gas pipeline of the entire Hyatt Hotel last night. The explosion caused a large-scale gas leak in the natural pipelines of nearby residents, which led to the hallucinations."

'Are you serious?! !'

Holy shit! The host's expression was completely broken at this point. What kind of excuse could be so ridiculous? He even had a massive gas leak causing hallucinations.

Even the staff at the scene were speechless at Kotomine Kirei's explanation. Any normal person could tell that this was obviously nonsense.

However, as a beautiful woman and a professional host, she couldn't speak out loud, so she could only frown and ask calmly: "But, Father Kotomine, as far as I know, gas leaks won't cause hallucinations..."

Before the host could finish, Kotomine Kirei took out the case certificate that he had hypnotized the police station to issue last night from his pocket and threw it into her hand, which completely shut her up.
