"Welcome back, Lord Roland...sister?"
"cherry!"
Matou Sakura, who was taken home first by the black shadow ninja, jumped off the sofa in surprise after hearing the sound of the barrier opening, and ran to open the door, but the figure that rushed in was not the Roland she had longed for, but the long-awaited Roland. Unseen sister.
"This child insists on seeing you, so I agreed. You can have a good time reminiscing about the past."
Roland slowly appeared from behind Tohsaka Rin and gave an explanation to the confused Matou Sakura.
"Yes, Lord Roland."
After receiving the affirmation, Matou Sakura felt at ease and looked at her sister whom she had not seen for a long time. Although she had resented her in the past, that was in the past. She was happy to be with her sister as long as it did not interfere with Mr. Roland. Play.
"That's great, that's great, Sakura...it's really great that you're okay..."
But Tohsaka Rin was obviously not as calm as Matou Sakura. Her slender eyebrows wrinkled, and her face, which had always been strong in front of Roland, was full of tears.
Regret, unwillingness, fear, all the emotions turned into tears of apology, pouring out of Tohsaka Rin's eyes.
"After I went to Matou's house and saw that scene, I really couldn't imagine what I would do if something happened to you? I'm sorry, Sakura... I should have been braver to resist my father..."
"It's okay, sister, it's not your fault."
Although she is younger than Tosaka Rin, Matou Sakura's performance is undoubtedly much more mature. She touches Tosaka Rin's head with one hand and puts her other hand on the other person's back to caress her.
"I feel very lucky about my current situation, because if it weren't for this, I wouldn't have met Mr. Roland."
"Did that guy rescue you from the Matou family... It seems like he didn't do anything."
Because he knew the reason why Matou Sakura was sent away, Tohsaka Rin did not propose any nonsense such as bringing Sakura back to the Tosaka family. After confirming Sakura's safety, rationality regained the high ground.
Someone had to take over Sakura. Although Roland looked very dangerous, he still didn't make a move when he restrained her, and even talked to her in a pleasant manner. This shows that even if the other person is not as good as his father, he should not be a bad person.
Besides, he is very rich.
Sakura followed Roland. In the future, the two sisters no longer have to worry about the past friendship between Matou and Tohsaka. They will remain separated in order to avoid the misunderstanding of prying into each other's inheritance. Thinking about it this way, it's quite good.
"Lord Roland is the greatest person in the world, and it is a matter of course."
Matou Sakura had a divine expression on her face, as if she was about to preach. Then, before Tohsaka Rin began to retort, he gently pressed her head in his arms and sniffed the tip of Rin's hair.
——It smells like Lord Roland.
Matou Sakura's eyes suddenly became extremely gloomy, but the smile on her face became brighter and brighter.
"Sister, tell me next, how did you meet Lord Roland?"
"Eh...well, I already skipped class today..."
Seeing this loving scene, Roland also smiled and said: "They are still sisters after all, and they get along really harmoniously."
"Sometimes, I really don't know if you understand people's hearts too well, or if you don't understand them at all."
Caster shook his head helplessly, "I plan to continue to strengthen the boundaries of the workshop. Does the master also want to come to learn?"
"Okay, anyway, these two girls and I have nothing to talk about..." Roland stretched and was about to agree, but his eyes suddenly moved.
"Did something happen?"
Noticing Roland's change, Caster asked.
"It's nothing, but there are so many uninvited guests today," Roland clapped his hands, "Just continue your work, Caster, I'm going to see what the old bug who lost his chips is planning to do. .”
——
"Gone...it was here just now."
The hunched old man huddled in the shadows, frowning deeply as he looked at the marks in front of him.
"The traces of magic left here are still very strong. Was there a battle just now?"
After his workshop was blown away by Ishtar and his clones, Matou Zangyan let the life bugs who had hidden underground in advance escape at all costs. After hiding in fear all night, he dared to Reorganize your body and realize the current situation.
With almost all seven Masters and Servants showing up, the little girl outside the situation was summoned illegally, but with this kind of bargaining chip in hand, Matou Zangyan didn't know how to use it for a while.
After all, the eldest daughter of the Tosaka family is still a member of the Tosaka family. The opponent seems to still know nothing about the nature of the Holy Grail War. Tokiomi Tokiomi doesn't know about this situation either. He doesn't want to expose it in advance and give the Tosaka family another chance. Add a boost.
But he had another reason to find Tohsaka Rin. The girl had taken away the charm he got from the last war.
No matter what, it must be retrieved, but considering the strength of the servant, Matou Zangyan would definitely not dare to face a head-on confrontation.
So, starting from the morning, he was like a wild dog, following the traces left by the other party, hoping to encounter opportunities.
At first, when it was confirmed that Tohsaka Rin was shrouded in a barrier, he was pleasantly surprised. Except for Caster, a barrier of this strength could not be completed so easily. He did not dare to deal with servants, but he could with allies. It's the same thing again.
But he didn't expect that after the barrier was broken, apart from the remaining traces, he couldn't even find the direction in which the people inside left, as if they had used a miracle like space transfer.
"Roland...where are you?"
Just when Matou Zangyan was mumbling to himself in an old voice that sounded like the chirping of insects, a joking voice suddenly appeared next to him.
"Hey, Mr. Matou, I haven't seen you for a few days. Why is your house bombed?"
"..."
Matou Zangyan turned around, and sure enough, the elusive young man was looking at him with a nasty smile.
"Hmph," Matou Zouken said straight to the point, not in the mood to argue with the other party, "Since you can still talk to me so leisurely, it seems that you have taken care of the Tohsaka family's little girl."
"It can be said like this."
Roland didn't deny it. Anyway, this suspicious guy would figure everything out by himself.
"So, I want to ask you something. Did you get anything from that little girl?"
"You mean, this?"
Roland opened his palm and showed the dragon talisman on it.
"My charm!"
Seeing something that even surpassed the Holy Grail and was almost as important as his own life placed in front of his eyes without warning, the flames burning in his heart made Matou Zangyan tear away his pretense of deepness and spit out With an animalistic growl, he subconsciously reached out his hand.
Then, the action stopped.
Because the hand he stretched out, along with his entire upper body, disappeared into the flames emitted by the spell.
"What?"
The remaining parts of Matou Zangyan's body instinctively spread out to form smaller clones, and screamed out.
"First of all, I hate it when people touch my things without permission. Secondly," Roland showed a cold smile and mocked.
"—This is my spell."
