Chapter 771 The Land of Winter Trees
Dongmu City.
Looking at the familiar land in front of her, Sakura seemed quite calm. She originally thought she would be more excited, but when she actually returned to this land, Sakura found that she didn''t seem to be as sad or painful as she thought. Although she also has some bad memories here,... after all, that''s all over.
And she also has a new life.
Of course, Sakura secretly asked someone to investigate the matters of the Tosaka family. Her father Tosaka Tosaka Tosaka seemed to have died in the Fourth Holy Grail War, and her mother passed away due to excessive sadness. In fact, after coming here, Sakura secretly went to the cemetery and presented flowers to the two of them.
To be honest, Sakura''s relationship with her father is very complicated. On the one hand, as a magician, she understood very well why her father had to send herself out. But on the other hand, as a daughter, she also resented her father''s way of abandoning herself - why did she choose herself instead of her sister?
Unfortunately, for Sakura, this question may never be answered.
At the moment, Sakura was standing at the top of Touki''s building, holding a telescope, staring at her former home. Of course, the telescope is also one of the magic rituals made for her by Fei''e. Fei''e, who is quite accomplished in spiritual subduing and ergonomics, has a unique idea when creating magic rituals - she is not simply creating magic rituals, but while creating magic rituals, she integrates the souls of animals into it through spiritual subduing, so that the magic rituals have the ability to be no less than the animal''s body.
Like the telescope that Sakura currently uses, it integrates the soul of the eagle, so in terms of "hawk''s eyes", it can even be comparable to ARCHER, who is a servant. This is also the reason why Sakura can clearly see the Tosaka family even if she is at the top of the building in Xincheng District.
Fiole made a total of four pieces of equipment to use. According to Fiole, this is the inspiration she got from what her younger brother saw called cartoons, such as the eyes of an eagle, the ears of a wolf, the speed of a leopard, the strength of a bear... I have to say, it is quite useful.
Having said that, what happened to the Great Holy Grail?
While immersing in the memories of the past, Sakura was also secretly confused. After ensuring her stronghold, she certainly had been to the location of the Great Holy Grail. However, what surprised Sakura was that she could not enter the big hole at all. It was as if the entire space there was directly isolated, which once again proved that there was indeed something wrong with the Great Holy Grail... I don’t know when Brother Duanmu and Sister Lorena will come back...
Thinking of this, Sakura was a little worried.
I still have a lot to say to them...
“MASTER, the target has emerged.”
At this moment, ASSASSIN''s voice sounded, and Sakura hurriedly retracted her thoughts and picked up the telescope again. Then she saw a black-haired girl wearing a red coat walking out of the house.
"elder sister………"
Looking at the girl, Sakura couldn''t help but mutter to herself. She is almost no different from her sister in her memory. She is still so energetic and looks confident. Perhaps because of her growth, she has become a little more calm... Hum?
"Is that a curse on the back of my sister''s hand? Alas? Has a curse been used?"
Looking at the remaining spell marks on the back of Tosaka Rin''s hand, Sakura looked puzzled.
It is obvious that the followers have not arrived yet, but the war has begun? Even forced my sister to use a spell? So fast? Is this Holy Grail War so dangerous? What exactly happened?
“………”
No matter what, it is better to be careful.
But then again, since entering Touki City, Sakura has always had a strange feeling, that it was not being monitored or something, but more like a distortion in some space... Is this also caused by the Holy Grail?
Next, Sakura quietly observed her sister for a day. What made her feel at ease was that at least from the surface, her sister did not seem to be an introverted person and she got along well with her classmates in the class. But, as a magician…
"Why are sister so careless..."
Sakura sighed helplessly. Just late at night, she witnessed a war between servants. One side was her sister''s servant, and the other side was LANCER. Although the battle between the servants is indeed wonderful, what makes Sakura speechless is that her sister seems to be fascinated by the fact that she forgets to unfold the barrier.
After all, the concealment of magic is the most priority for magicians. When studying at the clock tower, Sakura was also warned repeatedly. In Sakura''s opinion, when her sister''s servants restrain LANCER, she should immediately expand the barrier. However, my sister seemed to be fascinated by the fact that she missed the opportunity, which led to the witness of this scene by ordinary students.
Fortunately, although the student was knocked down by LANCER, his sister saved his life. Sakura was somewhat relieved to see this.
If it were his father, he would definitely not let that ordinary person go, and would even silence him. Now it seems that my sister is at least not as inhuman as my father.
In fact, Sakura originally wanted to help, but the distance was too far and she couldn''t get through. Fortunately... her sister didn''t disappoint her.
Next, under Sakura''s gaze, her sister returned to the Tosaka home. Then he suddenly rushed out of the house as if he had remembered something, and then came to a wat-style house. Before Sakura could figure out what had happened, she saw a follower falling from the sky and attacking her sister - fortunately she was blocked by her follower.
What is somewhat surprising is that the master of the hero even wasted a spell in order to prevent the other party from attacking his sister.
Woo...Did the two know each other?
Watching her sister and the boy walk into the house, Sakura looked puzzled, and at the same time she had the intention of secretly eating melons. After all, she had already seen that the boy who summoned SABER was the boy who was almost killed by LANCER before. At that time, her sister was very sad. At that time, Sakura just thought that her sister simply did not want to see ordinary people involved in the war of the magician.
But now it seems...well, do these two people like each other?
Could it be that my sister had a crush on this boy, so she saved his life, and the other party also had a crush on her sister, so she used a spell to order her servant to stop?
But the rules of the Holy Grail War, two people who love each other may fall in love and kill each other... This is almost the same as the plot of the novel Lenis likes to read, and it seems quite interesting?
Although they didn''t know what the two said in the house, after that, Sakura saw her sister leaving the mansion with the boy and his servants, as if she was planning to go to... Touki Church?
Remember that it is the location of the referee of the Holy Grail War. Did the sister convince the boy to give up becoming the Lord and seek the protection of the Holy Church?
“…………”
No matter what, it is almost time to say hello to my sister.
Thinking of this, Sakura was mentally prepared and then stood up.
"Let''s go, ASSASSIN."
“Yes, MASTER.”
For Rin Tosaka, this was also a magnificent day.
Following his father''s teachings, he summoned his servants and joined the Holy Grail War. Unexpectedly, he encountered unimaginable situations on the first day. First of all, the school was set up by a magician from somewhere, and then he was attacked by LANCER, and the battle between the two sides was witnessed by ordinary students.
It’s fine, but I didn’t expect that the ordinary student was still the master of SABER.
And now……
Looking at the battle between the beast that seemed like a storm and the petite girl with a long sword, Rin Tosaka only felt that the blood in her body was about to solidify. On the way out of the church, they were attacked by the Einzberen family, and the BERSERKER summoned by the other party was also a powerful opponent.
It''s so difficult, it''s not an enemy that SABER can deal with alone.
“ARHCER! Cover!”
Thinking of this, Tosaka Rin immediately issued an order.
However………
“ARCHER?”
In case, Tosaka Rin has been ordering his servant ARCHER to be responsible for guarding at a distance just in case. Logically speaking, ARCHER should do it when he issues the order.
But there was no response at all?
"it''s useless."
At this moment, a voice sounded not far behind Rin Tosaka. Rin Tosaka turned his head and saw a girl in black outfit and purple hair standing there on the street not far away, staring at her - and seeing the red ribbon tied to the side of the girl''s hair, Rin Tosaka only felt dizzy, and for a moment, it seemed that the whole world was about to be turned upside down in front of him.
“Long time no see, sister.”
Watching Rin Tosaka, Sakura whispered.
"Your servant is fighting with my servant, so he has no way to cover you at the moment... If I say this, you should understand what I mean."
“…………Sakura?”
Rin Tosaka took a step back, relying on her daily spiritual practice that prevented her from fainting. During the Holy Grail War ten years ago, the Matsuki family was completely destroyed, and her sister who was adopted by the Matsuki family disappeared. She originally thought that her sister died in the Holy Grail War that year, but now... she appeared in front of her again.
"That''s right, it''s me, sister."
Sakura nodded, then raised her hand and showed the spell of her right hand to Rin Tosaka.
"As for why I am here, I believe there is no need to explain it anymore. Isn''t this the reason why my father abandoned me?"
“Woo……”
Hearing Sakura''s words, Rin Tosaka gritted her teeth and didn''t know what to say.
"But before that, I have a question, why did my sister participate in the Holy Grail War?"
Sakura stared at Rin and asked.
"Is it like my father, in order to pursue the vortex of roots?"
"no."
Rin Tosaka shook her head.
"My purpose of participating in the Holy Grail War is very simple - to win, because... the battle is here, and as the heir to the Tosaka family, I naturally have to win gracefully! Even if the opponent is you... Sakura."
“That’s right…”
Sakura closed her eyes, remained silent for a moment, and then looked at her sister again.
"Then, let''s start...sister."
At the same time, in the deep mountains not far away, there were also several figures watching the battlefield below.
"I really didn''t expect that Sakura has grown so big."
Duanmu Huai also shook his head and sighed.
"So we really came eight years later? To be honest, I didn''t expect Sakura to grow like this at the beginning."
"I think this is good. It seems that Sakura has not suffered any grievances, but it''s just too good."
Lorena also breathed a sigh of relief.
"This time she came to Dongmu, to finish her own family affairs, so let her do it..."
Speaking of this, Duanmu Huai looked at Alice Phil.
"After that''s it, the one over there is your successor."
"Oh...it should be."
Alice Phil nodded and looked at the petite girl with white hair and red eyes standing on the distant hillside.
"It seems that Grandpa Ahad also decided to use artificial people to participate in the war this time."
"Go and chat with her, it''s good to relax."
“Okay, MASTER.”
