I'm really not a top magician

So, after the sea of fire had isolated the entire battlefield, Matou Zouken was ready to seize this fleeting opportunity and use his real body to escape.

But Matou Zouken would never have thought that

That corrupt brat Tōsaka Tokiomi actually seized this brief opportunity and, without using any magical defenses—because once he did, Matou Zouken would have discovered it—he passed through the flames with his own body to launch a hand-to-hand attack!

"Well done!" When Sajo Aika saw Tohsaka Tokiomi's punch, she felt quite impressed.

On the one hand, I feel sad about the change in Tōsaka Tokiomi. After all, in the original work, he practiced the Tōsaka family motto throughout his life and died as a magician.

Because of this, he directly caused Sakura's tragedy.

But at this moment, after learning the truth about the Sakura incident, he resolutely chose to let go of what he once insisted on and dared to take the blame for his mistakes.

In Sajo Aika's opinion, Tōsaka Tokiomi's punch was far more exciting than all the magic he had performed before.

On the other hand, Sajo Aika laments Lisa's intelligence.

Only if he is no longer Tōsaka Tokiomi—

This is the advice Lisa offers.

Although it is not known whether Toosaka Tokiomi heard this just now, what happened at this moment also proved that only when Toosaka Tokiomi gave up the personality he had always maintained did he have a chance to turn the tables.

Lisa saw this keenly.

Extraordinary theoretical wisdom and excellent intuition, this is Lisa's talent!

At the same time, when Matou Zouken came to his senses,

He had been knocked to the ground by Tohsaka Tokitoki.

"No, we have to run. If we don't run now, it will be too late!"

Zouken Matou understood that his magic power and physical body were exhausted at this moment, and he was no longer able to fight with Tōsaka Tokiomi. Even if he could barely win the battle with the latter, he would not have the strength to resist the pursuit of Aika Sajo and others.

So now we have to escape!

But Tohsaka Tokiomi will not do as he wishes.

Gems are scattered in the air,

These gems were prepared to fight against Aika Sajo in the final battle, and now he began to chant the spell to kill Zouken Matou.

“[——]”

Accompanied by Tōsaka Tokiomi's chant, with himself and Matou Zouken as the center,

There was a huge explosion,

Like small bombs, the shock waves generated by these gems, which were the result of decades of accumulation of Tōsaka Tokiomi's efforts, directly destroyed the houses on both sides.

If C-Dai and Mashu had not defended in time, perhaps Aika Sajo and others would have been affected by the explosion.

"This firepower...is too much." Satiao Aige became worried.

The flames from the violent explosion shot straight into the sky, breaking through the barrier that C Dai had set up at the beginning.

To outsiders, this sudden explosion was completely consistent with what was often said in the news recently - another gas explosion in Fuyuki City!

"father!"

Seeing the explosion that soared into the sky, Sakura, who was hiding at the back of the crowd, couldn't help but shout.

Although Tosaka Tokiomi's previous behavior disappointed Sakura,

But children are children because they are emotional.

Even if disappointed,

But she also saw how desperately Tōsaka Tokiomi was fighting just now.

"The daughter of Shichen..."

Gilgamesh tilted his head slightly towards Sakura and said, "Don't worry, Tokito has already won."

Gilgamesh then turned to look at Shatiao Aige: "Then this is the end of tonight's farce. I look forward to the final battle later. Shatiao, how do you plan to defeat me?"

After saying this, Gilgamesh immediately transformed into a spirit and disappeared.

When the explosion gradually weakened, a figure walked out from the flames.

That person was none other than Tōsaka Tokiomi.

Tōsaka Tokiomi's face was covered in dust, and his originally noble and elegant clothes were now torn to shreds by the flames of the explosion. However, as the center of the explosion, it was really a bit unreasonable that he could still stand up, right?

"It's Archer's Noble Phantasm."

C Dai suddenly explained, "Archer must have secretly arranged some defensive Noble Phantasm for Tōsaka Tokiomi from the beginning. I just felt the disappearance of magic power, that Noble Phantasm must have been broken."

"Haha, that Gilgamesh guy is really dishonest."

Sajo Aika scoffed, "You clearly told Shichen to do it himself, but you secretly helped him cheat. How dishonest!"

"You too,"

C gave Shatiao Aige a blank look and asked, "Who just took out the holy sword?"

"What nonsense are you talking about?"

Sajo Aige laughed and secretly took back the holy sword.

Looking at the swarm of insects in front of him being completely devoured by the flames, Shatiao Aige actually felt a sense of inexplicable emotion.

"Matou Zouken... no, that should be Machiri Zolgen. Holding onto a last glimmer of hope for an impossible ideal, he, along with Tōsaka Nagato and the "Winter Saint" Justiza Rizleich von Einzbern, constructed a ritual known as the Holy Grail War in Fuyuki City."

"Because he didn't want to die without achieving anything, and because he wanted to witness the realization of his ideal, he began researching immortality. But two hundred years passed, slowly corroding his soul. From eradicating humanity's evil, to obtaining the Greater Holy Grail, to pursuing immortality... Matou Zouken became corrupted."

"Yes, desperately trying to cover up and resist is the entire life of the man named Matou Zouken."

"No matter how glorious his goal, he is still a heretic who commits evil deeds."

"It could not be overturned until his death, until it destroyed his obsession with survival."

"This is the life of Matou Zouken..."

Listening to Shajo Aige's story, everyone gradually recovered from their excitement.

Perhaps it is the unique sadness of Sajo Aika herself,

This made the words just now sound inexplicably sad.

And Matou Zouken's life,

It's nothing but pitiful, sad and lamentable.

This is the tragedy of life.

"Sakura..."

Tohsaka Tokiomi stumbled over to Sakura and tried to bend down to touch her head.

But Sakura took a few steps back in fear and hid behind Sajo Aika.

When Tōsaka Tokiomi saw this, his heart ached, but he understood it in his heart.

Sakura is so afraid of herself now, maybe it's her retribution.

The alley is covered with silent silence.

But soon, Sakura whispered:

"Can I...can I call you daddy again?"

Tōsaka Tokiomi was stunned, and his original sadness was instantly swept away by Sakura's question. As if grasping the last straw, Tōsaka Tokiomi quickly replied:

"Yes, Sakura! You can do this!"

"Really...is it okay? Are you really...not lying to me?" Sakura said.

"No, Sakura. Not really this time."

Tosaka Tokito said, "Sakura, I'm sorry. I was wrong all along."

Having said this, Tōsaka Tokiomi finally lowered his proud head.

This man who always prides himself on being elegant,

Finally admitted his mistake,

Finally, he bowed his head in front of his daughter.

Tears flowed down Tōsaka Tokiomi's cheeks.

Until this moment, the man's originally strong heart could no longer hold back his tears.

Maybe I was moved by my father's words or his tears,

Sakura subconsciously looked up at Aika Yanajo, as if wanting to ask her opinion.

Sajo Aika pointed at Tohsaka Tokiomi with her chin and said, "Go over there, Sakura."

Sakura understood.

After hesitating for a long time, he slowly walked out from behind Sajo Aika and came to Tosaka Tokitoki.

Sakura stretched out her finger, but quickly retracted it. After hesitating for a long time, her weak palm grasped Tohsaka Tokitoki's finger and said:

"Are you okay, Daddy."

"....Thank you, Sakura."

Chapter 273 The Fourth Holy Grail War Singularity

With the reconciliation between Sakura and Tohsaka Tokiomi, father and daughter, Sajo Aika and others finally completed the mission successfully.

However, due to what happened before, although Sakura has forgiven Tohsaka Tokiomi, she has no plans to go back for the time being. Perhaps a year is too long and she is not ready to face her family, or for other reasons. In short, Sakura will continue to live with Sajo Aika for the time being.

Tōsaka Tokiomi quickly accepted this decision.

Thanks to the help of Aika Sajo, Tohsaka Tokiomi was able to learn the truth that had been hidden by Zouken Matou, so he now trusts Aika Sajo's character - she will not use Sakura to threaten herself, nor will she let Sakura be involved in the danger of the Holy Grail War.

Because the battle tonight lasted too long, Sakura was a little tired, so C held her in his arms all the way.

But C was hungry, and wanted to be lazy after holding him for a while.

"Master, come and hold me." said C Dai.

Of course, Sajo Aika didn't want to be hugged, but since Sakura refused to leave, she had no choice but to squat down and coax her: "Sakura, can I take you to the amusement park tomorrow?"

"Okay. Thank you, Sister Sajyo."

Sakura was very polite and happily kissed Sajo Aika.

"Then why don't you just go on your own?"

"not good."

This time Sakura was smart.

Sajo Aika thought for a moment, then said, "When I count to three, I'll carry you away, okay?"

Sakura snapped her fingers, thinking she was pretty good at math, so she looked up and said, "No problem! Sajō-nee!"

Then I heard Sajo Aika say, "Then... march in step! 121,121,121, , ..."

Shatiao Aige desperately moved forward,

Sakura was stunned for a moment, then followed Sajo Aika happily.

C Dai, Mashu, Gudako, and Lisa, the four girls, were stunned at the back, and they didn't know whether to laugh or cry:

"You're such a scumbag, master!"

"Senior, this is too skilled!"

"Is this how you raise a child?"

"Mashu, don't learn this!"

For a moment, everyone laughed out loud.

Only Tōsaka Tokiomi, who was walking behind the crowd, saw this scene and his originally happy mood suddenly became unhappy.

He felt a little regretful, as if he shouldn't have left Sakura at Sajo Aika's house...

After Shajo Aige and the others had completely left here,

A big black insect crawled out from the sewer pipe.
