Toosaka Sakura looked at the man, her eyes full of surprise.

"is this real?"

"That's not the case." Ian forced a smile, "How could that be? Sakura's order...would not have that kind of effect on me."

"Vivian, you were just joking, right?"

"No." Vivian shook her head, "I'm not kidding."

"Sakura."

The witch looked directly at the student in front of her, and there was even a hint of tears in her voice.

"Please...don't torture him like this anymore."

"..."

"I don't want this either." Toosaka Sakura lowered her head and held Ian's arm tightly.

"But if not—"

"I'm going to lose him."

"But Sakura." Vivian wiped her eyes, "You will only continue to hurt Ian if you continue like this."

"I……"

The witch turned away.

"I don't want you to choose the same path as me."

"No, Vivian!"

Ian stopped Vivian from talking beside him.

"It's not a question of injury - Sakura, she didn't do anything wrong at all."

"..."

The more Ian protected Sakura Toosaka, the sadder Vivian felt.

The witch did not hate his partiality towards her, but recalled the heart-wrenching scenes from the past.

Bondage, pain, and endless torture.

This is not love at all, but a harm to him.

This can't happen anymore.

Absolutely not.

Vivian took a deep breath, then took Sakura Tosaka's hand and took her away from Ian's arms.

"Xiaoying, there is one thing - I think I have to tell you."

"Wha, what's the matter?"

Toosaka Sakura looked at the teacher and her voice began to tremble.

She was afraid to witness their sweetness again.

"that is--"

Vivian's gaze fell on Ian, who remained silent, with countless regrets in her eyes.

And these regrets now turned into her motivation to tell the truth to her students.

"Sakura.?"

"Ian... is actually my husband."

The moment she heard Vivian's words, Toosaka Sakura felt as if her heart had fallen into an icy cave.

She looked at the other person in disbelief and subconsciously took a step back.

"Teacher...what are you talking about?"

"Is that your husband, Mr. Ian?"

Probably having expected Sakura Tousaka to have such a reaction, Vivian nodded and continued:

"Yes."

"You heard that right."

"Ian... is my husband."

"..."

In an instant, Toosaka Sakura's already almost broken heart was shaken once again.

She subconsciously denied it:

"Teacher Vivian."

"How could what you said happen? Mr. Ian... he was a British knight from thousands of years ago!"

"..."

Vivian did not answer Sakura Toosaka directly, but looked at her with pity.

The witch did not have any hatred towards her students at this moment, only the lingering regret after revealing the truth.

"Sakura."

"I know this is... difficult for you to accept."

"but--"

Vivian looked back at her knight husband.

"It is what it is."

"If you find this hard to believe - maybe think about why I know his name."

"..."

Toosaka Sakura's pupils opened slightly like a flower bud just opening.

At this moment, all the memories of the past connected into one line in her mind.

Vivian is such a powerful person, why did she help me participate in the Holy Grail War?

Does she like this disciple of hers?

No.

It was she who wanted her to summon Ian.

The name and other things were already known clearly a long time ago.

In that case—

The reason why the two of them had such a close relationship before was probably because of their identities.

The most important, and also the most difficult to understand, is life span.

But all this may not be a problem for Vivian.

After all, for a magician of her level, staying young is probably just a matter of a few spells.

The moment she realized all this, Toosaka Sakura felt like her world collapsed.

At this moment, her status with her teacher Vivian was completely reversed.

The other person is the one who truly has his feelings.

I am... just a latecomer.

"impossible!"

"This is absolutely impossible!"

Toosaka Sakura covered her head and began to deny the truth that intended to destroy her entire world.

"Teacher Vivian, you are lying!"

"..."

If it were before, Vivian felt that she would probably feel triumphantly happy because of Toosaka Sakura's collapse at this moment.

but now--

For her, who had tasted the complete experience of loss and recovery, every word from Sakura Toosaka that denied the truth hurt this witch's heart.

At this moment, just as at that moment.

How can they be so similar...

Vivian could fully understand that kind of heart-wrenching pain.

"I'm sorry, Sakura."

The witch expressed her apology, but it seemed a little pale and rude.

Yes.

What else could she say except to apologize?

It's impossible to send her husband back to Sakura Toosaka in some weird way, right?

That was absolutely impossible - I had already lost him once, so there was no way I would make the same mistake again.

"fraud!"

"You are all liars!"

A few tears fell from Sakura Toosaka's eyes, and she then ran out of the room where Ian was summoned.

"Sakura!"

Seeing his Master running out, Ian reacted immediately.

He glanced at Vivian, seemingly thinking about something.

After hesitating for a moment, the man left a message:

"Vivian... no matter what happens next, please don't blame Sakura."

"please."

After saying that, Ian followed and left.

As she watched Ian walk away, Vivian's mouth trembled slightly, but in the end she said nothing.

No.

To be precise, she knew that words had long lost their original function.

At this moment of showdown, they are already heading towards an unpredictable future.

Even a magician like Vivian can't do anything about it.

The only thing we can do is wait and see.

[You temporarily left the Tousaka family's residence. ]

[You start looking for Tousaka Sakura on the street outside. ]

[You are worried that she will do something out of the ordinary when she is stimulated.]

In spring, the snow on the streets of Japan has already melted.

It was a holiday, and there were still quite a few people on the road even in the morning.

But Ian didn't care about these things - at the moment, he just wanted to find her as soon as possible.

"Sakura--!"

"Sakura--!"

"Have you ever seen a girl about this tall, with long black hair, blue eyes, and who is quite cute?"

Passersby on the street looked at a man in confusion as he anxiously described a girl to everyone he met.
