But she soon realized she had no other choice.

Whether she believed it or not, she had no choice but to accept the teacher's invitation.

Otherwise, I would definitely be suspicious for a long time.

"I understand."

"In that case—"

Toosaka Sakura's eyes bypassed Morgan and looked directly into the room behind her.

"Let's talk somewhere else."

"it is good."

【You didn't know that the meeting between the two of them would come so early. 】

[You have regained your memory at a considerable cost in terms of physical strength. 】

[At this moment, you just want to have a good rest for a while. 】

On the streets in the early morning, the sunlight has not yet reached the earth.

In a gray atmosphere, Morgan and Tousaka Sakura walked on the road.

The witch didn't want the atmosphere of this conversation to become so dull, so she quickly took the initiative to speak.

"Sakura—"

"This seems to be the first time we've been out so early in the morning like this in all these years, right?"

"Yes."

Toosaka Sakura answered her teacher's question with cryptic words.

"When you think about it, I'm really lucky."

"I haven't gone out alone with the teacher so early in the morning in all these years—"

"Otherwise, maybe one day only the teacher will go back?"

"..."

Morgan knew what Sakura Toosaka was hinting at - she was silently recounting the deception and fraud she had suffered over the past decade.

If it were before, the witch would probably sneer at this moment.

But now, Morgan no longer had that thought in mind.

She knew exactly what Toosaka Sakura was thinking at the moment - she wanted to tear herself to pieces.

Even if I look at it for one more second, I will feel uncomfortable all over.

Everything was just like how he had viewed Altria in the past.

"..."

"Yeah." Morgan continued what Sakura Toosaka said.

"At that time...I was indeed thinking about how to kill you."

"but now--"

"No, not just now."

"From now on, I will probably never have such thoughts again."

"Because the teacher knows that he won, right?" Toosaka Sakura's eyes had become deep and dark.

"You think as long as we get Mr. Ian back, it doesn't matter what happens to other things, right?"

"..."

Morgan was silent for a long time, then stopped and looked at the student beside him.

"Do not."

"Sakura, I didn't win."

"I…have failed much more than you have."

"..."

Toosaka Sakura did not take Morgan's words seriously - or rather, at this moment, she could no longer trust this merged person.

Feeling the other person's gaze, she turned her face away and avoided the contact directly.

"teacher."

"Please stop the false pity - I don't want that kind of meaningless comfort, it just makes me feel sick."

"I'm not trying to comfort you, Sakura."

Morgan choked up a little.

"I'm just stating the facts to you."

“As a wife, I know I’ve completely failed.”

"..."

Hearing this, Toosaka Sakura became a little confused.

"teacher--"

"What do you mean? Could it be that... Mr. Ian is disgusted with you now?"

"No." Morgan shook his head.

"He still likes me just as much as ever—and he's still bringing up old things."

"But the more I think about it, the more I realize how outrageous what I did in the past was."

"Sakura."

"Do you remember how Ian came to me?"

"..."

Toosaka Sakura's lips trembled slightly, and she didn't seem to want to answer this question.

But in the end, she still responded in a compromising manner.

"Mr. Ian... you went to find the teacher with my two Command Spells, right?"

"Yes."

Morgan's voice was already somewhat defeated.

"Sakura."

"I'm not blaming you - but you probably don't think you're doing the right thing."

"..."

Toosaka Sakura's expression became a little embarrassed.

But she admitted the idea.

After all, Toosaka Sakura really regretted doing this, especially when she heard that Ian was tortured because of it.

"Ah."

"It was wrong for me to do this - but all this..."

Before Toosaka Sakura could finish her words, she heard Morgan's words, which sounded like a foreshadowing.

"But all this is to fight back against me, right?"

"..."

Toosaka Sakura's eyes widened slightly - she probably didn't expect Morgan to respond like that.

The girl's intuition told her that something was not right.

"teacher."

"What exactly do you want to express?"

"Do you simply think that I did something wrong? Or do you think that my behavior disgusts you?"

"Neither." Morgan shook his head. "I... just saw myself in you."

"'Saw myself'?"

This was an answer that Toosaka Sakura had never expected.

"Teacher, what do you mean by this - are you trying to say that I am deceiving you too?"

"..."

Morgan's breathing quickened a little, and it was obvious that he was trying to adjust his emotions.

Then, she said in the calmest tone possible:

"Sakura, I don't mean to blame you at all."

"I'm here to apologize."

"Because what I did to Ian—was far more outrageous than what you are doing now."

"Outrageous?"

Toosaka Sakura still didn't completely believe Morgan's words, and her tone was filled with more anger that couldn't be expressed in words and could only turn into harsh anger.

"Teacher, I think I've already said it - if you want to comfort me, there's no need."

"How could someone who schemes against even his own students do something outrageous?"

"..."

Faced with Sakura Toosaka's rather sharp questioning, Morgan could only sigh.

"Sakura."

"I used him as a tool and made him do dangerous things for my desires."

"In the end, he completely disappeared from my sight - and we didn't meet again until today."

"Your current pain is all caused by me."

Morgan felt sad from the bottom of his heart.

If letting Ian assassinate Vortigern was because he was unwilling, then letting him follow Artoria into battle later was sheer greed.

She had a thousand ways to make him avoid all this.

But in the end, he chose to sacrifice him.

"Teacher...are you serious?" Toosaka Sakura couldn't believe what she heard.

"Even so, he still loves someone like you?"

"..."

I really don't want to admit it.

I really don't want to admit it.

Morgan wanted to deny this statement, but his body confessed everything out of regret.

"Yes."

"So I'm a terrible wife."

"Since Sakura feels that Ian and I betrayed you... No, I should say that I betrayed you—"

"Then..."

Morgan stretched out his trembling hand, held Sakura Tohsaka's arm, and put it in front of himself.

"Slap me hard."

"Until you feel happy."

To be honest, Morgan didn't know how to apologize to Sakura Toosaka so as to let her know how much he regretted the moment.

After all, she was born to be an aloof princess, and she had never done anything to lower her dignity like this.
