The world of Type-Moon starts with saving Altria!

She must have been very upset at that time, right?

Just thinking about it makes me feel so high.

[There are still many unknown secrets in the Fourth Holy Grail War. 】

[As a secret participant in the Holy Grail War, Kotomine Kirei knew many truths that were not recorded by the Church and the Clock Tower.]

[Or should we say, this was actually caused by him.]

Ten years ago, in a castle somewhere in the suburbs of Fuyuki.

During the Caster fire incident, Kotomine Kirei came here with his Servant Assassin Hassan Sabbah.

After obtaining the consent of his teacher, Tousaka Tokiomi, he sneaked into the castle.

Soon, with the assistance of Assassin, Kotomine Kirei discovered a woman hiding here.

That was Irisviel - Saber's acting Master in this Holy Grail War.

of course.

From Kotomine Kirei's perspective, she is Saber's Master.

He had already seen her at the port.

He was somewhat curious as to why this woman couldn't even run away when she saw him and Assassin.

Can't move?

It certainly seems possible.

But that's not the point.

Since the opponent is so weak, there is no need to hesitate.

Kotomine Kirei raised his knife and ended Irisviel's life. He buried the body and quickly left the scene.

But this man didn't know that what he buried at this moment would become the key to open the future at some point in the future.

A few days later, when the Three Kings Conference ended.

Kotomine Kirei never thought that Archer Gilgamesh, summoned by his teacher Tōsaka Tokiomi, would come to him.

The most ancient king expressed his thoughts directly.

"Work with me to get rid of Tōsaka Tokiomi."

"You'll get what you want."

Kotomine Kirei's first reaction was naturally to refuse.

"Please forgive me for refusing - you are my teacher's servant."

"And what I've learned also tells me that I must never do anything immoral."

"But you're actually feeling very uncomfortable being bound, right?" Gilgamesh saw through Kotomine Kirei's inner thoughts at a glance.

“You are clearly pursuing things that make you happy, but you don’t know what can define them.”

"Let me tell you what pleasure is - pursuing what you want to do is entertainment; entertainment can bring pleasure, and pleasure can increase people's happiness."

“There’s nothing inherently wrong with that.”

"Besides -"

The image of Tōsaka Tokiomi clenching his fist appeared before Gilgamesh's eyes.

He knew that this man was not convinced by him from the bottom of his heart.

Rather than being stabbed in the back by him, it is better to get rid of him first.

In this world, only the king can let others down, and no one can ever let the king down.

"You are a participant in the Holy Grail War, right? How can killing an opponent be considered unethical?"

"..."

Gilgamesh's words clearly touched Kotomine Kirei.

He was silent for a long time, and then he said:

"Sorry...please give me some time to think about it."

"No problem." Gilgamesh smiled proudly.

Because he knows what kind of creatures humans are - once the ravines in their hearts are opened, no amount of earth can fill them.

[This is a private contract that no one knows about.]

【It was buried forever in the past.】

[Because she has to learn martial arts from Kotomine Kirei on weekdays, Toosaka Rin does not live with her mother. ]

[According to the agreement, she put on the scabbard of the Excalibur Galatine sword and headed towards the old house.]

As his father's successor, he participated in the Fifth Holy Grail War.

Of course, it is impossible for Toosaka Rin to hand over the precious holy relic (especially one that has the potential to summon Saber) so easily.

Even if it is my mother's order, it is not allowed.

After all, under the same strength, the servant's ability becomes the key to victory or defeat.

But the problem is that Toosaka Rin found that the scabbard was completely unusable.

It clearly looked like there was nothing wrong with it, but he just couldn't create any magical resonance with it.

This was the first time she had encountered such a thing, so naturally she had no solution.

and so--

Since it is of no use and my mother wishes she could take it back.

So why not?

With this thought in mind, Toosaka Rin returned to the somewhat old mansion.

In fact, Toosaka Rin is not very familiar with this place - after all, she rarely lives here.

To be honest, the girl doesn't like living here either.

how to say?

She always felt that this was a sad place.

But forget it, it’s already the situation now, there’s no point in worrying about these things.

Toosaka Sakura held the box that contained the scabbard, tilted her head slightly, and then used her cheek to temporarily act as a hand.

Therefore, the free hand reached towards the doorbell.

ding dong ding dong --

The doorbell rings.

Toosaka Rin thought that it would be her mother, Zenjo Aoi, who would come out to open the door.

But she didn't expect that she would see someone else.

She was a girl with black hair and blue eyes, just like herself.

There are many similarities between the two people's appearance.

If the other person's dressing style wasn't so different from her own, Toosaka Rin would have thought she was looking in a mirror.

of course.

If you really want to find differences other than clothes, there are some.

Toosaka Rin's gaze fell on the opponent's chest - that was the flow line that clearly killed her.

Does a size like that really exist?!

Toosaka Rin felt her head buzzing.

However, the greetings from the other party quickly brought her back to reality.

"that--"

"Are you 'Xiao Lin'?"

"..."

Although the other person and herself have many similarities in appearance, when she heard these words, Toosaka Rin couldn't help but become alert.

There is no other reason.

This is a name that only one's deceased father and long-widowed mother would use.

How did she know this when she met me for the first time?

"Um... I'm Toosaka Rin." The girl responded carefully.

"As expected, come in first."

"it is good."

Following the girl in front of her into the mansion, Toosaka Rin saw her mother, Zenjo Aoi, at a glance.

The latter still had some tears in the corners of his eyes - it was obvious that he had just cried.

However, the moment she saw Toosaka Rin, her expression became much happier.

Perhaps because he was worried that his daughter might not understand the situation, Zenjo Aoi quickly introduced people.

"Xiao Lin."

"That's your sister Sakura."

"This is her teacher Vivian."

"Originally there was another teacher, Mr. Weber, but he seemed to be going to see who left first."

"..."

Toosaka Rin was stunned for a moment, and then suddenly realized something.

She stretched out her hand, pointed at Tousaka Sakura, and exclaimed:

"This is my sister?!"

"Yeah." Zenjo Aoi nodded, "Many years ago...for some reason, your father and I had to send Sakura abroad."

"Now I'm finally back."

"This, this is it."

Toosaka Rin nodded thoughtfully, and then smiled at Toosaka Sakura.

She did not resist this sister who suddenly appeared.

In other words, Toosaka Sakura didn't actually have any emotional feelings - after all, this was the first time she met him.

The girl held out her hand.

"Long time no see, Sakura."

"..."

Looking at Toosaka Rin's graceful and elegant appearance, Toosaka Sakura felt as if her heart was being pinched.

She was wondering why the other person was so calm?

Shouldn't she feel that she has gone too far?

But in the end, Toosaka Sakura suppressed these thoughts and held the other person's hand.

"Well, long time no see, sis."

"I'm glad you're back." Toosaka Rin didn't think too much.

She looked at Zenjo Aoi.

"so--"

"Mom, is this scabbard for her?"

"Yes, that's right." Zenjo Aoi spoke in a lower voice.
