I'm really not a top magician

However, Tōsaka Tokiomi's situation was not as good as he had imagined.

From the outside, it could be seen that Tohsaka Tokiomi's coat was in tatters, and his trousers were full of holes. Through the holes in his clothes and trousers, he could clearly see the wounds underneath that were bleeding. The wounds were hideous, and every time Tohsaka Tokiomi took a step, the wounds on his body felt as painful as if they were cut by a knife.

As mentioned before, Tohsaka Tokiomi is not a very talented magician. He can reach a certain level through hard work, but he still needs talent to achieve something in the field of magic. Therefore, when Tohsaka Tokiomi faced the rune made by Sajo Aika,

His defensive magic was indeed lacking, and most of the time he could only barely protect himself from fatal injuries, but he was completely unable to take care of attacks from other places.

Although he appeared to despise Matou Kariya, a guy who escaped responsibility, Tōsaka Tokiomi had to admit that Matou Kariya did cause him a lot of trouble.

But the last sentence, "Your fangs will never touch me", is just a kind of pride that Tōsaka Tokiomi maintains when facing the enemy.

In fact, it was difficult for Tōsaka Tokiomi to even stand right now.

But no matter how you evaluate it, he is still a winner.

At this time, Kotomine Kirei, who was watching the battle from a distance, saw that the winner had been decided and no longer had any interest in the battle.

Matou Kariya was lying on the ground, the intense pain rushing straight to his brain along his nerves, almost making him faint.

He saw Tōsaka Tokiomi approaching from the corner of his eye, but perhaps because of the pain,

His vision was already half-bright and half-dark, groggy, with even several double images appearing, and even the stars became brighter.

Matou Kariya saw that Tōsaka Tokiomi's lips moved, as if he said something.

His head was dizzy and he couldn't hear clearly.

But what this guy said was definitely something like "You lost to me" and "You're just a stray dog."

Thinking of this, Matou Kariya wanted to get up.

“I feel so heavy…”

"Damn it, how can I...?"

Gradually, Matou Kariya felt his body was very cold and his consciousness began to blur.

"Am I going to die?"

"Did I...fail?"

Since childhood, Matou Kariya believed that he would become a protagonist like the male protagonist of a light novel.

He believes that he will become a powerful person in the future.

With such expectations in mind, he also wrote the novel series "The Dark Swordsman Kalia" with himself as the protagonist when he was a student.

"If it's Kariya, I think you can do it."

The person who said this is Zenjo Aoi.

Oomatou Kariya was three years old.

They are childhood sweethearts.

Matou Kariya was not a very outstanding person during his school days. Like other teenagers, he was naughty, immature, and even caused trouble everywhere.

However, at that time, Matou Kariya still had a dream in his heart - to become a writer.

The dream is great, but such a future will never appear in a child who causes trouble like this.

Everyone is convinced of this.

Even Matou Kariya himself would think like this every night when he went to sleep.

I was thinking about changing, thinking about the saying “Thirty years in the east, thirty years in the west”, thinking about making a name for myself in the future.

But before the next day, these things were buried deep in my heart without anyone else seeing them.

"If it's Kariya, then it will definitely work!"

No one believes in themselves.

Except Aoi.

Aoi always treats him tenderly like an older sister, like a real sister, putting herself in his shoes, and has an elegant temperament in everything she does.

This feeling could not be felt in the gloomy Matou family.

Therefore, Zenjo Aoi became the person that Matou Kariya liked during his junior high school years.

He likes Aoi.

So every time after school, he would pick up Aoi and go home together.

Every time he goes out, he will take Aoi's preferences into consideration.

Every time it was Aoi's birthday, he would carefully select the gifts...

Yes, Matou Kariya likes Aoi.

But...the other party didn't realize it.

After graduating from university, Matou Kariya quickly became a reporter with his unique literary qualities.

Matou Kariya, who got a good job right after graduation and was able to support himself, soon severed ties with the Matou family.

He then goes to Zenjo's house, intending to confess his feelings to Aoi.

But on that day, Matou Kariya met that man

——Tousaka Tokiomi.

As a descendant of the three great families of the Holy Grail War, Matou Kariya naturally knew the new head of the Tōsaka family.

However, Matou Kariya decided long ago that he would not inherit his family's magic.

Therefore, I didn't pay attention to Tosaka Tokito for too long.

The few impressions I have is probably that I don't like this kind of guy who is so arrogant in his bones.

"Oh, it seems that it is not very convenient now. Then I will take my leave first."

After meeting Matou Kariya, Tohsaka Tokiomi also quickly left the Zenjo family.

But at that time he felt vaguely uneasy.

But Aoi soon found him and said, "Kariya, I'm getting married. To Tokiomi-kun."

The moment I heard this,

Matou Kariya felt his head start, and his mind went blank in an instant.

In fact, what made Matou Kariya feel uncomfortable was not these words,

But it's Aoi's eyes,

That's a look of love...

"That's good, Aoi."

Matou Kariya put on a happy face and said, "The Tōsaka family is also a famous family. Although Tokiomi is a bit arrogant, he is a hardworking person. As the new head of the Tōsaka family, he will definitely treat you well..."

For a while, Matou Kariya kept talking about how good Aoi's decision was.

He didn't want to stop.

I dared not stop.

Because he was afraid to stop.

I can't help crying.

"Aoi got the happiness she wanted."

"Don't disturb her."

"Don't hurt her."

This is what Matou Kariya said to himself.

For Matou Kariya, bringing his beloved Aoi into the insect warehouse is absolutely impossible.

If Matou's magic form could be more normal,

He will also honestly become the heir and fight with Tōsaka Tokiomi in the love field.

"But now that I think about it... maybe it's because I have low self-esteem... Actually, I... really... my stray dog personality is ingrained in me... I really hate myself."

"All I can do is howl at the stars, but I don't have the courage to jump up and grab them..."

"In the end, I never defeated Tōsaka Tokiomi once."

I'm actually very scared,

It's best to be prepared.

But dare not even step on his shadow,

I'm actually very scared.

"But today...I want to win once..."

Chapter 305 Wild Dog Fangs

But just when he was about to leave and go to see Sajo Aika, Kotomine Kirei noticed that Tōsaka Tokiomi had not left.

“Hu…Hu…Hu…Hu”

Just when Tosaka Tokitoki was about to leave, he heard the breathing of Matou Kariya.

Weak breathing,

"Oh? Can you still breathe?"

Tōsaka Tokiomi turned to look at Matou Kariya lying on the ground.

Matou Kariya did not respond. He used his burned hands to support himself and tried to stand up.

"Don't move, or you will die faster." Tōsaka Tokiomi advised kindly.

Tōsaka Tokiomi had already seen it, so why could Matou Kariya, who didn't have the qualities of a magician, become a master?

The reason is simple, because of the imprinting worm.

With the help of the Crest Worms, Matou Kariya became a Master in just one year. However, for a magus, this method is tantamount to forcing growth, and overdrawing his own vitality too quickly. Tōsaka Tokiomi can roughly guess the life cycle of Matou Kariya.

Probably another month.

Even with such a dying body, it still had to fight with itself. After being hit by two or three fireballs just now, it was already very good that the body could still maintain its human form. It was already a miracle that it could continue to stay alive.

Because of this, after Tohsaka Tokiomi realized this fact,

He no longer had much contempt for this old rival, and even vaguely admired his courage.

But if he stood up again and fought again,

Matou Kariya will really die!

It was for this reason that Tōsaka Tokiomi tried to persuade him kindly.

However, Matou Kariya did not listen to this advice.

“It’s not over yet…”

Matou Kariya supported himself on the ground with his hands.

"I'm still able to fight!"

Matou Kariya roared, as if launching a charge, thinking of launching a final attack on Tōsaka Tokiomi.

Facing this acquaintance's suicidal attack,

Tohsaka Tokiomi sighed deeply inwardly.

Finally, he turned around and shot a fireball...

This time, the winner is really decided.

When Kotomine Kirei was about to feel happy about the death of Matou Kariya,

A golden light appeared from Matou Kariya's body.

"Boom!"

The fireball hit the target and thick black smoke filled the air.

But when the golden light and thick smoke disappeared, Kotomine Kirei saw Matou Kariya standing in front of Tōsaka Tokiomi.
