The world of Type-Moon starts with saving Altria!

"I wonder... did I do something wrong?"

The scene of the journey home flashed before the little girl's eyes.

My parents didn't say a word to each other during this period, and they didn't even have the most basic eye contact.

This is completely different from their usual loving appearance.

Sakura Toosaka, who had never experienced such a thing before, felt a little guilty - she always felt that all this happened because she did not stay in the Matou family.

"I...shouldn't I stay at Uncle Matou's house?"

"..."

[You realize that Tousaka Sakura did achieve her goal by crying. ]

[But her personality remains the same as before. ]

[She always felt that all the problems were caused by her own willfulness—even though she couldn't find the connection at all.]

[You can't help but feel a little sorry for this overly sensible little Lolita. ]

【You decide to give her some advice. 】

"Then--" Mr. Ghost responded to Tousaka Sakura.

"Sakura, tell me, do you want to stay there?"

"..."

Toosaka Sakura held her rabbit doll in silence for a long time, and finally shook her head.

"Do not want to."

"I feel very uncomfortable staying at Uncle Matou's place."

"Isn't that right?"

After receiving a positive answer, Mr. Ghost's voice became a little higher.

"Why would you force yourself to think it's appropriate if you don't want to be there?"

"But if that happens, Mom and Dad will be very angry." Toosaka Sakura's voice became much softer.

"I don't want them to hate me..."

Hearing what Tousaka Sakura said, Mr. Ghost smiled.

"How could I possibly hate you for something like this?"

"If I really hated you, I wouldn't have brought you back from the Matou family right now, right?"

"on the contrary--"

“They actually love you very much.”

"Love me very much?" There was a little more light in Toosaka Sakura's eyes, "Is this true?"

"of course it's true."

"Look...as soon as you said you didn't like being there, didn't they bring you back right away?"

Mr. Ghost calmly explained to Toosaka Sakura.

“They actually care about your feelings.”

"So Sakura, you don't have to worry about being disliked by them."

"You are mom and dad's daughter... no matter how you think about it, they love you."

Sakura Toosaka, who was originally feeling very guilty, suddenly understood after listening to Mr. Ghost's "guidance".

She began to realize that what she did was not a big mistake.

"Hmm~" The little girl hugged the rabbit doll and smiled sweetly, "I understand!"

"Thank you, Mr. Ghost~"

[You have successfully untied the knot in Tousaka Sakura's heart. ]

【However, the dilemma faced by Tousaka Tokiomi and Zenjo Aoi was not resolved. 】

[Or should we say——they are now cornered.]

In another room of the Tousaka residence.

Toosaka Tokiomi and Zenjo Aoi were sitting by the bed, both looking very sad.

Just now, they lost a chance to keep their daughter alive.

"I'm sorry, Tokiomi." Zenjo Aoi spoke apologetically.

"I'm so excited."

"It's nothing." Toosaka Tokiomi comforted his wife.

"Aoi, you did the right thing."

"I understand now... Since Sakura doesn't want to stay there, we really shouldn't force her."

"As for the Matou family, I will find a way to explain it to them."

"..."

Feeling that her husband obviously had no confidence when he said this, Zenjo Aoi sighed.

She held his hand and whispered to herself.

"Tokiomi, I wish I were a magician too."

"In this way... I can help you share some of the pressure."

"Don't say that." Tousaka Tokiomi gently stroked Zenjo Aoi's long hair.

"There's someone in the family who needs to be a magician, and it'd be best if I'm the only one."

"But--"

Zenjo Aoi looked up at her husband, her eyes filled with worry.

She already regretted her previous behavior.

"What should Sakura do?"

"If we can't send her to the Matou family, isn't that the same as letting her die here?"

"I won't let that happen."

Tōsaka Tokiomi clenched his fists.

"She is our daughter."

"..."

A glimmer of hope ignited in Zenjo Aoi's eyes.

She knew her husband would not make such a promise lightly - he must have had something in mind.

"Tokiomi, have you thought of any solution?"

"Yes." Tōsaka Tokiomi nodded as if he had made some important decision.

"I... thought maybe we could contact the Edelfeldts."

271. Golden Diamond Lady Luvia/Tousaka Sakura's Journey to Finland (4k)

[This is a possibility that Tōsaka Tokiomi had previously overlooked. ]

[Tousaka Sakura doesn't have only the Matou family as a place to go - she has other options. ]

[That is to seek refuge with the Edelfelt family far overseas. ]

[This is a distant relative of the Tōsaka family - but for some reason, they stopped communicating since Tōsaka Tokiomi's grandfather's generation.]

[So when he was thinking about it before, Tōsaka Tokiomi subconsciously ignored this possibility. ]

[Now that I think about it, it may indeed be a hidden third way! ]

"This……"

Listening to the idea proposed by her husband, Zenjo Aoi's brows first showed a bit of surprise when her daughter was rescued, but soon her face became heavy again.

"Tokiomi."

"If I remember correctly... our family should have cut off contact with them a long time ago, right?"

"...Yes." Tōsaka Tokiomi did not shy away from the question.

"Probably since my grandfather's generation, there has been no contact."

"That--"

Zenjo Aoi looked at the man in front of her, with obvious worry in her eyes.

"Can you still contact them now?"

"I don't know." Tohsaka Tokiomi replied, "But I have to contact him."

"Since Sakura doesn't want to go to the Matou family, I have to help her find a new way out."

"Aoi, you said it."

"She is our child. No matter what, I have to fulfill my responsibility to protect her."

This promise was enough to show Tōsaka Tokiomi's feelings.

Zenjo Aoi didn't continue to question.

She nodded, expressing her utmost support for her husband's idea.

"I see."

"In that case... I'll go back and ask for help from my people."

"Look up there, maybe there's a way."

"Thank you for your hard work, Aoi."

"Same to you, Tokiomi."

[You and Sakura Toosaka are unaware of the new plan that Toshiomi Toosaka and Aoi Zenjou have been secretly making.]

[During the time when the two of them were looking for a way to contact the Edelfelt family.]

[You and Sakura Tousaka's relationship is becoming closer and closer. ]

"Mr. Ghost, how's my drawing?!"

Sakura Toosaka happily showed her work to the empty space.

"Very good." Mr. Ghost responded quickly, "At least better than what I drew."

"Eh--?!"

Toosaka Sakura blinked her eyes in surprise.

"Mr. Ghost, do you have hands too?"

"Why do I have no hands?"

"Then..." Toosaka Sakura's curiosity was aroused, "Is Mr. Ghost actually the same person as us?"

"..."

"I think so."

"Oh~" Toosaka Sakura hugged her painting and smiled brightly.

"That's great!"

"Very good?"

"Hmm~"

The little girl responded seriously to Mr. Ghost beside her.

"Because if that's the case, it means that Mr. Ghost and I are the same, and maybe we'll have a chance to meet in the future!"
