This is not the first time that Izawa Sugi has participated in the Holy Grail War.
Previously, he had accidentally participated in a gas explosion in Fuyuki City, which was read as a family war while writing the Holy Grail War. In the end, he took advantage of the contaminated properties of the Holy Grail and slipped away.
However, he was eventually blocked in Avalon by Artoria and Morgan.
But overall, Izawa Sugi did not hate his experience in the last Holy Grail War.
Not only did he have the honor of meeting Alexander the Great and getting to know King Gilgamesh again, he also met Enkidu, whom he had only heard of but never met before.
Putting aside the reward Holy Grail in the Holy Grail War, there is such a strange ceremony that brings together heroes and strong people from different eras to have a tea party or something... Izawa Sugi would be happy to participate for a second or even countless times.
It was just that in the battle that took place in Fuyuki City, he saved a girl named Sakura, who was treated as a piece of magic material and artificially transformed into a carrier of an old man.
Now seeing the photo that Tosaka Rin took out, Izawa Sugi paused for a few seconds and finally connected the little girl of four or five years old back then with the girl in the photo now.
They both have light purple hair, both have red headbands on the side, both have light purple eyes, and both are named Sakura...
Ize Shan sighed inwardly but did not show it on his face.
It seems that the Matou Sakura in this world has not been saved.
He commented objectively: "She looks like she's growing up well. Is she a member of the Kyudo Club?"
In the photo, Matou Sakura changed into a Kyudo uniform and was drawing the bow and shooting an arrow. Her once wooden expression now looked a little more lively.
"Well, the archery club's commander, Mitsuki, is my friend. I feel a little relieved when she's around."
Tosaka Rin stroked the photo and closed the album.
"We're going to Ryudo Temple tonight."
Izawa Sugi was stunned. How did Tosaka Rin think of Ryudo Temple from Matou Sakura?
"Why? Are there any servants there?"
Tosaka Rin didn't answer, she thought carefully.
According to her experience in the Holy Grail War, &ter is entrenched in Ryudo Temple, and there is a high probability that Matou Ruoan will attack tonight. It would be great if she could take advantage of the battle between Matou Ruoan and Caster to kill him directly.
"…Ryuudou Temple is one of the three major spiritual places in Fuyuki City. If the lord's magic power is insufficient, he must rely on the magic power of the spirit vein to supply the servants. The probability of the existence of servants in Ryuudou Temple is relatively high."
It's not just caster, there could also be assassin.
Tosaka Rin frowned. If she remembered correctly, Sakura later mentioned that the servants' magic power she absorbed far exceeded the number of servants summoned under normal circumstances. For example, Sakura said she ate two of Assass.
One of them was summoned by Matou Ruoyan.
Tosaka Rin thinks the other one is Kotomine Kirei's Servant, because in the last Holy Grail War, the first Servant summoned by Kotomine Kirei was Assass.
Without her knowing, Kotomine Kirei and Matou Ruoyan had clashed many times in private.
This time I have to intervene... Tosaka Rin took a deep breath, looked at Izawa Sugi, and said hesitantly: "You are good at magic, if you fight against caster, will it be okay?"
Izawa Sugi saw what the girl was thinking, and his expression was a little subtle.
What does it mean to look at it from the perspective of the Holy Grail War she experienced?
Does Tosaka Rin know what will happen in the future?
Izawa Shan blinked and replied, "It depends on what kind of result you want. Do you want to kill Caster? That requires advance preparation. If Caster is entrenched in Ryudo Temple, it must have become Caster's magic workshop. It is very difficult to attack a magician's magic workshop without hesitation. I think you know that."
Tosaka Rin shook her head: "We don't need to kill Caster, but kill the others in Caster's territory."
"Oh, sneak attack." Izawa Shan smiled, but there was no smile in his eyes. His golden eyes were filled with a cold light. "Walking around Caster's territory... That's no problem. I'm good at borrowing other people's techniques."
"What if another Servant attacks you during this time?"
"It's still okay to run with you."
Tosaka Rin snorted: "My goal is not to escape, but to retreat calmly after achieving my goal!"
Ize Shan looked at the girl's proud expression and laughed, "It sounds troublesome, but I like challenging tasks. I can't guarantee success, but I will definitely try my best."
Tosaka Rin said with satisfaction: "Very good, then we will make our own preparations and set off when it gets dark."
She turned around and was about to leave. After taking two steps, she suddenly remembered something. "By the way, Archer, do you need to see a map of the surrounding area?"
Ize Shan held out his hand: "Just give me a map."
Tosaka Rin said, "How about that? Forget it, I'll take you on a tour, first from my house to Ryudo Temple, and then from Ryudo Temple to Matou's house."
When Tosaka Rin was preparing to attack the Matou family, the Matou family was empty.
Matou Ranyan was very disappointed.
Before Sakura Matou summoned Rider, Kuran Matou was still thinking of letting Sakura Matou be the summoner of the Matou family to cover for him in public.
But what kind of fairy king did Sakura Matou summon? It was not a fairy in a mythological story, but the fake fairy king in "A Midsummer Night's Dream" written by Shakespeare!
How powerful can a character whose existence depends on the dramatic story be?
The fact is just as Matou Ruoyan thought, the ability of this rider named Oberon's Noble Phantasm is to make people fall into a beautiful dream, and their fighting power is almost zero.
&erOberon is quite fast, and can turn into a bug to gather intelligence everywhere, but he, Jian Tong Ruoyan, can do the same thing himself! !
In "A Midsummer Night's Dream", the goblin king Oberon suspected that the queen did not love him, so he deliberately used a special potion to set a test for the queen and a human couple. After a night of panic and dreamlike emotional entanglements, the daybreak came, and the love became stronger and more loyal because of the test. The lovers finally got married and the story ended happily.
Matou Sakura could actually summon such a character based on her own affinity... Matou Ranken was a little depressed.
He is not a fool. Matou Sakura obviously has a crush on Emiya Shirou, but Emiya Shirou seems to be attracted to Tosaka Rin. Matou Rankuan also deliberately tortures Matou Shinji, causing Matou Shinji to do all kinds of things to Matou Sakura recklessly...
Matou Ruoyan originally did this to torture Matou Sakura and make her completely degenerate and become a tool of the Holy Grail.
As a result, after being tortured, Matou Sakura summoned such an incompetent and useless Heroic Spirit because of her bloody emotional situation due to stomach pain. Matou Ruyan felt like he was shooting himself in the foot.
"Tsk, it still depends on me."
Matou Rankan thought that he couldn't wait any longer. Although there was no summoning medium, he could snatch a Servant.
It is a bit troublesome to deal with servants, but if one is unintentional and plots against a lord, it is not a problem for Matou Ruoyan.
Matou Ruoyan went out to look for prey, and Matou Sakura finished her work and went to the Emiya residence early.
She is cooking.
"Sakura, do you like this Emiya-senpai?"
Oberon's voice rang in my ears.
Matou Sakura pursed her lips. From last night till now, the Oberon family has teased her many times. It's too much.
The girl tasted the miso soup a little, then she covered the pot and started to coat the tempura.
She did not answer Oberon's words.
"Well, maybe it's my illusion." Oberon's voice came from far away, "Your brother Matou Shinji seems to care about Emiya Shirou beyond friendship."
Matou Sakura's eyes widened: "Huh?"
Oberon grinned and said, "Your brother is warning Shirou Emiya to go home early after school."
Matou Sakura smiled unconsciously: "The Holy Grail War has begun. It is indeed safer to go home early. For my brother, the senior is his very good friend."
"But Shirou Emiya refused. Your brother's face was distorted with anger. He asked Shirou Emiya to stay in the school to clean up the Kyudo club."
Oberon said coldly, "Although you gave my use to your brother, he can't provide any magic power at all, and my attack power is so poor. If Shirou Emiya gets into danger because he comes home too late, I won't be able to protect you, my senior. Is that okay?"
Matou Sakura's three Command Seals have been used up.
After summoning Oberon, she used a Command Seal to create the Book of Treason to transfer a Servant, used another Command Seal to make Oberon obey Shinji Matou's orders, and used the last Command Seal to make Oberon protect Shirou Emiya's life.
Oberon sighed repeatedly: "Xiaoying, it's so hard for me. You asked me to obey your brother's orders. What should I do if your brother wants to hurt your senior?"
Theoretically, after the use of the Command Spell, the connection between the Lord and the Servant will be greatly reduced, but I don't know how Oberon did it. He can still chatter in Matou Sakura's ear, buzzing like a fly.
Hearing Oberon's complaint, Matou Sakura's chopsticks got stuck in mid-air, and the shrimp she was holding fell back into her shirt.
She murmured, "No, my brother won't hurt the seniors..."
Oberon chuckled, his laughter becoming quieter and quieter. He didn't say anything else, but Matou Sakura felt ominous.
When Oberon chose the Matou family as his protector, although he also thought of using the protector as a medium to rescue his bastard brother from the Sea of Numbers, he did not expect that the Matou family was full of garbage!
"Wow, a rotten bug that has lived for hundreds of years, a cowardly and timid coward, an inferior, arrogant and stupid little boy, and a little girl who has been tortured inside and out and has a thousand holes..."
Oberon kicked Rider and appeared in the summoning array first. After taking a closer look, he couldn't help but shed tears for his choice.
"Even if I'm a standard villain boss template, you can't give me a lord who is obviously cannon fodder? If so... wouldn't it mean that I should use them quickly and sell their souls to the devil quickly so that they won't waste them?"
If it was a kindhearted lord, Oberon might still be entangled, but since God has sent a bunch of filth and garbage cannon fodder, he can only drool. Oh no, it's the tear flower that has taken over everything~
Among the four chess pieces, Matou Kuran, Matou Sakura, Matou Shinji and Matou Tsuruno, Matou Tsuruno is a complete outsider and is not included.
Although Matou Sakura was tortured to the point of being almost broken, perhaps because of the excellent bloodline and perseverance of the Tosaka family, she has great resilience and hidden pride. If other people had encountered what she had experienced, they would have been broken long ago, but she can still go to school, participate in club activities and even learn cooking like a normal person.
Shinji Matou is a genius. Apart from magic, he has talents far beyond others in other fields. But unfortunately, he was born into a magic family and has no magic circuit, which makes him look inferior and have a strong sense of vanity.
As time went by, Shinji Matou naturally developed jealousy and a desire to abuse his successor Sakura Matou.
Oberon couldn't help but become interested in Matou Shinji.
When Shinji Matou asked Sakura Matou to hand over the Servant to him, he fell into Oberon's arms.
Ruo Kan Matou treated Shinji Matou as air, non-existent garbage and useless waste. If this inferior, twisted, vain and self-righteous boy killed Ruo Kan Matou in return, I wonder what expression Ruo Kan Matou would have?
But when Shinji Matou really kills Matou Ruin, and makes him realize that it was all done by Matou Sakura who [instructed] the servants to help him do it, what will happen to Shinji Matou?
As for the mastermind behind the Matou family, Matou Ruoyan...
"Things that deserve to die should just go to hell. It's disgusting to see them trying to stay alive."
Oberon smiled brilliantly. "In order to give the old man a dignified burial, Shinji and Sakura need to be more diligent. As for me, I just need to talk a little."
