That slight tendency caused the connection between Zenjo Aoi and himself to be in the grayish-white state of the [Stranger] stage, but it quickly heated up towards other places.
[The more peaceful the exterior, the more likely it is that a desire for danger is hidden?]
The feeling is much like a moth trying to fly into a flame.
"I am happy to use your safety to fight an unfair Holy Grail War with your husband/father. Of course, I will also need your help in some places." Fan Yu said frankly.
Considering that the Tōsaka clan was a competitor in this Holy Grail War, they were naturally hostile to him. He certainly wouldn't let them off so easily. Although he had no habit of harming women and children, Tōsaka Rin herself was no longer someone he could tolerate.
First: The other party is the heir of a magic family.
Second: The other party tried to be clever and trick him into falling. By simply luring him to the magic workshop, Fan Yu could not possibly regard her as a simple little girl.
Zencheng Kui looked as if she wanted to say something but hesitated: "You want to hurt Shichen, but you also want to hurt us?"
"If possible, I naturally hope for peace. All I need is for Tōsaka Tokiomi to withdraw from the Holy Grail War at the critical moment." Fan Yu said lightly.
Zenjo Aoi: "You——"
She knew very well that this was impossible, and if she really encountered that situation...
Zenjo Aoi glanced at his daughter across from him, wanting to speak but unable to. That person would never give up in order to win. No one could stop him.
Fan Yu took a step forward and lifted Zencheng Kui's chin: "Or, Miss Kui, do you want to protect her in another way-"
"Despicable!" An angry look appeared on the little face of Rin Toosaka in his arms.
Zenjo Aoi's face froze involuntarily. She had never thought that magicians would be interested in anything other than 'magic' itself. This really went against the common sense that most magicians were cold-blooded animals.
"If you think this is okay, then I--" Zenjo Aoi said slowly.
Fan Yu shook his head: "Then come with me!"
Toosaka Rin opened her eyes wide, unable to believe that her mother had chosen to agree without any resistance.
However, before she could think too much, Fan Yu used a magic technique similar to the one he had just seen to drive a burst of mental energy, causing Toosaka Rin's eyes to turn white and she fainted on the spot.
Zenjo Aoi's face was in a state of panic. He subconsciously moved closer to his daughter, but found that she had just fainted and could hear the sound of slow breathing. He immediately hesitated: "Rin, what is this..."
"I used some mental shock to calm your daughter down." Fan Yu said subtly.
"……you."
Fan Yu interrupted her and said, "Instead of talking about these meaningless things, why don't you tell me about your original itinerary?"
Zenjo Aoi paused, not intending to hide anything, and slowly said, "Shichen planned to have the driver take Lin and me to the Zenjo family home where I lived before I got married to take refuge for a while, and then return after the Holy Grail War you mentioned is over."
"No weak spots left?" Fan Yu held up his chin and understood Tōsaka Tokiomi's choice.
But if anyone was to blame, it was the aura left on him. Originally, he had the perfect start to focus on facing the Holy Grail War after transferring his wife and children, but everything came to an end tonight.
"Then please come with me. I also need to ask Madam about some books in the Tohsaka mansion." Fan Yu said seriously.
Zencheng Aoi: "..."
She didn't believe a word the other person said.
However, when Fan Yu returned the sleeping Toosaka Rin to her, her resentment towards Fan Yu subsided a lot.
"Thank you."
Fan Yu waved his hand. He came to Fuyuki City without any intention of being a good person.
Before leaving, he threw the red suit left by Tōsaka Tokiomi on the sofa as a proof of his visit.
"Let's go."
At Fan Yu's signal, Zenjo Aoi, holding Tohsaka Rin, took the lead and left the hall.
……
Not long after, the black luxury car parked at the Tohsaka residence slowly moved towards the distance.
Until night.
When Tōsaka Tokiomi returned from outside with his disciple Kotomine Kirei, he was stunned to see the mess left in his magic workshop.
"Teacher, what is this?" Kotomine Kirei asked hesitantly.
Tōsaka Tokiomi's face was heavy. He was not a magician who would show his emotions on his face. Instead, he was very calm: "Rin came to the workshop with my permission, but no matter how playful she is, she can't do this.
Not to mention the spells on the table and the gems that were consumed."
Kotomine Kirei said respectfully, "As expected of a teacher, you can actually discern so much information at a glance."
A hint of superiority appeared on Tōsaka Tokiomi's face. "Never mind. Judging from the results, they are just a few petty magicians. The magic of the Tōsaka clan has never been like this. What's more..."
He slowly took out a white cloth wrapped in a cloth: "The Holy Grail War is imminent, and I have this thing that I have finally obtained."
Kotomine Kirei: "Teacher, that... could it be a holy relic?"
Tōsaka Tokiomi proudly said, "Indeed, there's a relic thief that's been circulating in the magic world lately. He's been digging around in various ruins, stealing objects from various factions. He's completely disrupted the entire magic world, and the item in my hand was something I accidentally acquired during this chaos."
Having said this, he paused and added, "Why, Kirei is curious about its origins?"
Kotomine Kirei quickly lowered his head: "I'm sorry, teacher. I didn't have that thought."
Tōsaka Tokiomi shook his head with a smile, "Don't be so restrained, Kirei. I've also found a good relic for you for this Holy Grail War. Will you help me win the Holy Grail War?"
Kotomine Kirei responded solemnly, "Of course."
This was his response, but Kotomine Kirei was filled with confusion as he looked at the scene in front of him.
This man, called 'Tosaka Tokiomi', his teacher, was worried about his wife and children just a second ago, but he was so quickly baptized by magic that he forgot all those things.
Magician, what is it?
What does the so-called Holy Grail War mean?
His thoughts gradually drifted away, and following the instructions of his teacher, Tōsaka Tokiomi, he returned to the living room upstairs.
Kotomine Kirei inadvertently glanced at the broken staircase from the corner of his eye.
He had already seen Tōsaka Tokiomi's red suit placed in a very conspicuous position on the leather sofa.
Tōsaka Tokiomi naturally caught this scene as well: "Are you curious about my clothes, Kirei?"
"No, I was just wondering why Master's wife and Rin left this dress behind?" Kotomine Kirei asked calmly.
Tōsaka Tokiomi frowned, "Indeed... I'm curious too. Was this left by Aoi, or was it an intruder?"
Kotomine Kirei: “…”
He looked out the ventilated window. It was impossible for a married woman to leave the window open before dark.
The so-called 'kidnapping'?
He couldn't help but think of the red suit on the sofa. That was the aura he left behind on Mount Enzo last night, which he deliberately transferred to his teacher, Tōsaka Tokiomi, using a technique.
In just half a day, the man who killed the members of the Holy Church came here and kidnapped his wife and daughter.
He was not secretly pleased with all this.
No guilt either...
There wasn't even any emotion involved, just pure contemplation of hypothetical choices like 'what would that person do next'.
……
What will Fan Yu do?
Late at night, he had brought Zenjo Aoi and Tousaka Rin to the small town at the foot of Mount Enzo.
Toosaka Rin fell into a deep sleep under the spell and gradually began to adapt. She was carried back to the guesthouse by her mother and fell on the tatami with her legs spread out. She grabbed the quilt and covered herself in a daze, and did not respond even when her mother reminded her to wake up.
Zencheng Kui had already washed away her tiredness from the day, and sat opposite Fan Yu with the green long dress she had changed out of during the day, looming in her sight.
Ding dong! Ding dong!
Bursts of metallic sounds came from the opposite side of her, and Fan Yu took out the things he had put in his backpack during the day.
Some relics and antiques containing soil, as well as the Egyptian-style necklaces seen during the day and other metals were displayed, giving the room a hint of earthy atmosphere...
Aoi Tousaka stared blankly at the pile of worn-out antiques in front of her, and vaguely realized: "Could these be holy relics?"
Fan Yu paused for a moment: "Oh, you know?"
“…” Zenjo Aoi nodded.
She married into the prestigious Tosaka family as an ordinary person, but before that, she was a descendant of the Zenjo clan, a magician family, so naturally, she knew a bit about magic.
The Holy Grail War is a famous event in the Far East that has lasted for hundreds of years, so she is definitely familiar with it.
The timing of Fan Yu's appearance, the words her husband said before he left, the start of the Holy Grail War, and the many ancient civilization clothes from different regions in front of her made it easy for her to associate the current situation with those things.
Fan Yu held up a piece of weed stained with rotten cloth and asked curiously, "What is this? It was unearthed in Athens."
"If this is an ancient relic, could it be the 'Golden Sheep'?"
Chapter 13 [Connection] Zen City Aoi (Two in One)
Zenjo Aoi stared uncertainly at the wrinkled relic that Fanyu displayed.
Fan Yu: "Oh?"
Holy relics are necessary items for summoning Heroic Spirits (Servants) under the Holy Grail War system, and are used in the Heroic Spirit Summoning Magic Ritual that Fan Yu had previously obtained.
If the summoner possesses a spirit that is similar to that of the Heroic Spirit, physical compatibility is naturally better. However, if not, in addition to locations and buildings, such as temples or shrines commemorating related figures, there is another catalyst that has a deep connection with the Heroic Spirit during his lifetime—the holy relics.
It is the best choice.
If it is true as Zenjo Kui said, and what is before our eyes is the [Golden Sheepskin], then what can it summon?
"The legendary golden sheepskin is a rare treasure in ancient Greek mythology. I'm not 100% sure it's what I'm talking about." Zencheng Kui said tactfully.
Fan Yu nodded. He knew about the golden sheepskin.
In the mythological system of this world, long ago, the Greeks sang its legends.
Legend has it that there is a place called Colchis on the Black Sea coast far away from Greece, where there is a rare treasure - the Golden Fleece.
Many heroes and kings in mythological wars longed to obtain the golden sheepskin. In order to obtain it, heroes and heroes embarked on a dangerous adventure, but no one succeeded. Many people did not even see the shadow of the treasure and fell on the long journey.
However, the hero Jason was different.
With the help of Athena, the goddess of wisdom, he summoned the most famous shipbuilder to build the Argo, and called on heroes such as Pelias, Chiron, Hercules, Meleager, and embarked on an adventure.
Jason wandered on the sea and found the legendary land.
The kingdom there collected precious treasures such as golden sheepskin. Finally, with the help of the king's daughter Medea, they killed the king and put him to the test, and successfully took everything.
Therefore, [Golden Sheepskin] not only symbolizes wealth, but also symbolizes adventure and indomitable will, as well as ideals and the pursuit of happiness.
Of course, the final outcome of the myth is that the golden goatskin is stained with blood. The ending of the heroes Jason and Medea is basically depicted in many stories.
……
"If this thing is real, then the summoned servants will be fun to play with." Fan Yu said seriously.
He quickly put away the shabby item he had received from Greece, and then displayed the jewelry he had acquired from last time, attempting to test Zenjo Aoi.
The latter showed a hesitant look on his face and immediately shook his head: "Sorry, I can't tell what it is."
Although she was happy to help in this way so that the other party would not develop the tendencies she did not want to see, it was obvious that she was just an ordinary person with a good understanding of magic, history, and mythology. It was still too difficult for her to become an archaeologist like an encyclopedia.
"This is the result obtained from Egypt. It's a pity that the mummies at that time were almost rotten, otherwise some bandages would be very useful." Fan Yu said.
Zencheng Aoi: "..."
She felt like complaining, but when the words came to her lips, she remained silent.
Is this person a tomb robber?
However, before she could think too much, she saw the man opposite her had already taken out the third holy relic and placed it in front of her: "Do you know this?"
Zenjo Aoi shook her head: "I don't know."
She is just an ordinary housewife.
Upon hearing this, Fan Yu sighed and put away the holy relic: "Is that so? I took it for granted."
Zenjo Aoi paused, "What?"
"I thought that as the wife of the head of a famous demonic family, you would have a considerable understanding of this comprehensive information. I expected too much. But in this case, there is one less meaning for me to bring you here." Fan Yu said lightly.
Hearing this, Zenjo Aoi glanced at her sleeping daughter, her expression tightening, a trace of worry in her eyes: "Could it be that you are right, please allow me..."
