Is this okay?

Who could that be?

He was completely baffled, and out of habit, he casually stroked his cane, which caused it to tremble slightly.

"Ok?"

Did it just shake?

Tokiomi Tohsaka sensed something, was surprised, and picked up his cane to examine it closely.

The enormous ruby ​​on the handle, containing the magic he had painstakingly crafted throughout his life, makes it a very impressive weapon as his magical artifact.

Just then, there was a knock on the study door.

dong dong dong.

"Come in," Tokiomi Tohsaka said calmly upon hearing the voice.

crunch.

The heavy wooden door was pushed open, and a small figure slowly walked in.

"Father, dinner is ready." Sakura Tohsaka timidly walked in, her hands gripping the doorknob, her little face showing unease as she looked at Tokiomi Tohsaka in the chair.

She was a little afraid of Tokiomi Tohsaka because she had recently learned that she was to be adopted into the Matou family.

As a young girl, she couldn't change the outcome no matter how unwilling she was, so she could only silently endure everything.

She couldn't express her hatred because she didn't understand what hatred was.

"Well, I see."

Tokiomi Tohsaka nodded calmly to indicate that he understood.

As a father, he pays great attention to his image in front of his children; he represents not just himself, but the entire Tohsaka family.

After careful grooming, she appears composed, elegant, and determined – that's how the children see her.

This image is ingrained in his very being, naturally exuding authority.

Who knew that the very next second after Sakura walked in!

"It's now!"

Suddenly, the unfamiliar voice appeared again!

"Nani!?"

Upon hearing this, Tokiomi Tohsaka was taken aback. His eyes widened suddenly, and a sense of foreboding arose within him.

Everything that had just happened seemed to reappear before my eyes.

Could it be... could it be—!

"Abba aba aba! Magical Girl Transformation!"

"Stop! Sakura! Get out of here!!"

Tokiomi Tohsaka let out a desperate cry; he already knew what was about to happen.

Sakura, standing at the door, looked completely bewildered, not understanding what was going on.

Then... the light appeared!

The light disappeared!

Tokiomi Tohsaka, dressed in a cute purple dress, sat on a chair with his legs crossed, looking very elegant.

"Hiss—hiccup!"

Sakura, who was standing at the door, gasped when she saw this scene, and even choked on the cold air.

She never expected to see her father so alluring. She stood frozen in place, as if time had stopped, her face filled with a look of utter shock that would last a hundred years. Even the light in her eyes disappeared.

At that moment, her father's towering image crumbled in her heart.

She was under immense pressure at a young age, pressures that no adult should have to bear.

The shock to the young mind was indescribable.

"..."

Tokiomi Tohsaka sat motionless in his chair, drenched in cold sweat; he was at his wit's end!

Now that things have come to this... how can I turn things around?

But it doesn't matter!

According to her own elegant teachings, Sakura possesses a more elegant, composed, and determined personality than Rin.

He believed that Sakura would understand his situation.

"Sakura, something went wrong with Daddy's magic trick. You go out first, I'll be fine in a bit."

However, Sakura didn't move; she seemed completely stunned and motionless.

"Sakura?" Tokiomi Tohsaka asked again, raising an eyebrow in confusion.

"Ah? Oh!"

Sakura nodded blankly, completely unaware of what Tokiomi Tohsaka had said; she simply felt her mind was a complete blank.

Seeing that Sakura had come to her senses, Tokiomi Tohsaka breathed a sigh of relief and said earnestly, "You can go out now."

"Okay." Sakura replied blankly, slowly retreating, her eyes filled with envy as she closed the door, staring at Tokiomi Tohsaka's little dress.

"Daddy's little dress is so pretty, I want one too."

She muttered something, completely unaware that she had spoken it aloud.

"..."

Don't panic! Stay calm! Be elegant! Be graceful!

I can't stay calm anymore!

Which bastard is targeting me?!

Tokiomi Tohsaka roared inwardly, furious. After a fit of rage, he slumped wearily into his chair, his face pale with a look of utter despair.

Chapter 173 Otherwise, I'll freeze to death in front of you!

Faced with the current situation, Tokiomi Tohsaka was internally cursing, feeling helpless and unable to express his frustration.

He tried to take it off, but he couldn't get it off no matter what he did.

Fortunately, it suddenly disappeared, otherwise it wouldn't have had a chance to catch its breath.

Suddenly, a white light emanated from his body, and then the little skirt disappeared, replaced by the red suit.

"..."

Is this targeting me personally or what?!

When no one is around, it changes back; when someone comes, it changes back!

Are you only satisfied when you embarrass me?!

Tokiomi Tohsaka leaned wearily against his chair. He finally understood. His expression changed from blank to clear as he fully grasped the situation.

If it only happened once, then it might have been an accident.

But this is the second time already!

The first time was after Kotomine Risei and Kotomine Kirei left, and now it's after Sakura left, and it's turned back into its original form.

"Damn bastard! Don't let me find out who it is!"

Tokiomi Tohsaka gritted his teeth in frustration; he was furious, yet helpless.

He could only swallow his anger and take a deep breath to calm his inner turmoil.

"call……"

After a nearly trembling exhale, he felt his composure and elegance return.

"Let's eat. Eating is also a way to relieve stress."

He stood up, filled with emotion, reached out and pulled the door open. His leather boots made little noise on the soft carpet, but the sound of movement was palpable.

……

On the other side, after Leng Mo and Senior Xiao Yuan arrived in the world, the two immediately showed comical smiles.

Then a gust of cold wind blew by, and I instantly felt like a dog.

Because of the pleasant climate on Men's Island, which even felt like summer, neither of them wore any thick clothes.

I just threw on a jacket, maybe some long pants and a long-sleeved shirt.

"My God, it's so cold..."

Leng Mo hunched his shoulders, tucked his hands symmetrically under his armpits, his teeth chattering wildly, and he even felt like his snot was about to freeze. He stood there trembling uncontrollably.

Senior Xiaoyuan wasn't much better off; she was in the same position as Leng Mo, and even worse.

"Ah Mo, why didn't you pay attention to the weather here when you came?"

She asked Leng Mo in a trembling voice, her voice filled with despair; this was an unexpected situation.

"Even if you ask me, I don't know. I've read countless novels, and I've never seen a protagonist come here complaining about being cold! Relying solely on past experience is a huge mistake!!"

For the first time, Leng Mo felt like he had been tricked by the plot in the novel, but fortunately it wasn't that serious.

"How about we go back and put on some clothes before coming back?" Senior Xiaoyuan was freezing and realized this wasn't a good solution.

“Good idea. So here’s the problem: did we bring any warm clothes? Are we going straight back to our own world?” Leng Mo subtly noticed the blind spot: there were no winter clothes on Manly Island.

"Never mind then, I'm afraid I'll be dragged to work if I go back."

"..."

I finally understand why you don't want to go back.

Forget about my own place; I absolutely won't go unless it's a last resort. How can my own world possibly be as fun as the outside world?

Both are cold, but I prefer the coldness of the anime/manga world.

This is sweet cold!

"What should we do then?"

"Let someone else deliver it."

"Good idea, but how is this any different from us taking it ourselves in the past?"

"No……"

Leng Mo was speechless for a moment, and even felt that it was reasonable.

It's better to go and get it yourself than to wait for it to be delivered.

There is no other way!

"Things have come to this! Things have come to this—! The only option left is to extort money by phone!"

"??"

When Senior Xiaoyuan saw Leng Mo utter such a shameless utterance of criminal sounds, she was immediately filled with question marks and stared at Leng Mo with wide eyes.

“Call Matou Kariya; I’m sure he’ll pay a high price to buy Tokiomi Tohsaka’s photos in women’s clothing from us.”

Leng Mo's eyes flashed with a sharp light, and he uttered words that sounded like those of a tiger or wolf.

"Oh—! Great idea!"

Upon hearing this, Madoka's eyes lit up, and she quickly pulled out her Madoka Radar to search for Matou Kariya's phone number.

Although mobile phones were not common in this era, and people were still using old-fashioned brick phones, it didn't matter!

As a rich second-generation, Matou Kariya definitely has a powerful older brother.

"Found it! Dial it!"

Paji.

Madoka-senpai dialed Matou Kariya's number directly, and then Matou Kariya's voice came through the device.

"Hello, who is this?"
