"You can ask questions, but I don't know what you want to ask, and I can't answer you, right?"
After hearing what Matou Zouken said, Emiya Shirou asked his question directly.
"About Shinji. Why did he become a Master? Judging from the way he was just now, it should have been you."
"Oh, I thought you were going to ask something. It's okay to answer you about this. Just like you said, it was me who made Shinji be chosen as a Master. As you can see, I've been away from the front lines for a long time."
"That is, I, an old man who cannot fight, have given the stage for showing my skills to my grandson."
"Master's surrender—that is to say."
Shirou Emiya narrowed his eyes slightly, as if he had understood the hidden meaning behind Matou Zouken's words.
However, Matou Zouken did not refute, but continued speaking.
"Yeah. Just like you, a descendant of Emiya."
"When you learned of the Holy Grail's appearance, it wasn't you who made the contract with your grandson and the Servants. You are also the last of a lineage that has delved deeply into the ways of magic."
"You should understand the feeling of entrusting your own unfulfilled dreams to your disciples."
what does that mean.
Emiya Shirou was a little confused.
Because according to the knowledge he got from the priest, in principle, a Master is a magician.
So isn't Zouken Matou saying that Shinji is learning magic, and his family is also one of the mage sects?
"Magician... the Ichigi family is also a family of magicians, right?"
Emiya Shirou asked the question that puzzled him the most.
And Matou Zouken looked at Emiya Shirou with surprise.
"Don't you know? This land is rooted in the Tōsaka and Matou families. Even so, our bloodline has declined."
"The rights to this land are now the Tōsaka family's true property. The Matou family is merely surviving on the strength of its former power."
At this moment, after hearing about Zouken Matou's story, Shirou Emiya felt that his ID worldview began to fall apart.
Although it had broken once when summoning the Servant, it didn't prevent it from breaking a second time, he asked with a look of doubt on his face.
"Tōsaka? So, does Tōsaka know about you too? That the Matou family is a family of magicians?!"
Matou Zouken answered as a matter of course.
"Of course. Tōsaka and I were once comrades. We severed our relationship because the ritual degenerated into a mutual conflict. We were once companions who shared lofty ideals. If it hadn't been for the Holy Grail War, we would have held onto it."
"Oh, indeed, from that guy on, the generation has changed to this little girl."
"I've been away from here for decades. I don't know how capable that guy's disciples are."
Matou Zouken said some incomprehensible words, and then laughed to himself.
I don't know what kind of feelings Matou Zouken has towards the Tōsaka family, but he laughed happily.
Emiya Shirou continued to ask questions.
"You said you were once allies with the Tōsaka family. So, the Matou family originally stayed here for the Holy Grail War, right?"
Matou Zouken nodded.
"Well, it was originally called Makiri."
"Although we disguised ourselves in this country under the name Matou, it was a grave mistake. We are not suited to this country. Over the past two hundred years, our bloodline has gradually weakened, and now only such a loser can be the heir."
At this moment, Emiya Shirou felt that he had learned a very important piece of information.
Matou.
It's just a change of name.
Well, if Shinji is from a magician family, then Sakura is not.
There is only one important thing left to ask.
Emiya Shirou looked at Matou Zouken and asked his final question.
"So, Sakura-sakura is also a Master like Shinji?"
When he heard Emiya Shirou's question, Matou Zouken immediately denied it.
"That's a different matter. Sakura is a Master? That's impossible. It seems your father didn't teach you well."
Emiya Shirou was full of confusion.
"Impossible? Does that mean I don't have the qualities to be a magus?"
A look of nostalgia appeared on Matou Zouken's face.
"That was a problem in the past. Originally, a magus' lineage was generally passed down from one son to the next. Unless the family was quite prestigious, it would be impossible to pass magic down to anyone other than the heir."
"Siblings are the best choice. There's no need for two heirs. To protect the Matou name from disgrace, even if it means giving him away as an adopted son, it must be given away. However, without Magic Circuits, there's no need for that."
Hearing this, Emiya Shirou spoke anxiously.
"Then Sakura—"
Matou Zouken answered without hesitation.
"Since Shinji is a Master, you can understand even without answering. If he hadn't been chosen as the heir, he wouldn't have had a high status, and he wouldn't have known that our Matou family is a mage."
"Well, I thought about switching to my sister if my brother wasn't able to do it, but the outcome has already been decided. At this point, I can't just throw my ignorant grandson into the Holy Grail War."
Hearing what Matou Zouken said, Emiya Shirou patted his chest in relief.
Although I was surprised that Matou came from a magus family, the fact that Shinji was a Master was also a problem.
However, Emiya Shirou felt relieved when he thought that Sakura had nothing to do with this kind of fighting.
Relieved, Emiya Shirou looked at Matou Zouken and said.
"It can be said that the victory has been decided. Shinji can no longer fight. You are not the incumbent, and Sakura has nothing to do with the Holy Grail War."
Listening to Emiya Shirou's words, Matou Zouken replied with a smile.
"Yes. But I can't guarantee what Shinji will do next. He still has an obsession with magicians. It's a family scandal, but the Matou bloodline has weakened since coming to this country. He can be considered the last heir. Anyway, Matou's children no longer have magic circuits."
Then, Matou Zouken said this while pretending to be distressed.
"Really? Even so, I don't know where he found the secret book. He's proud of being the chosen one, but he was also raised with the obsessive belief that he's inherently inferior."
"Because I've always let him go, his nature is hard to change. If he refuses to give up even when faced with such a clear defeat, there's nothing I can do."
The old man shrank back.
No, it's just the silent retreat that creates that illusion.
"In short, Shinji has lost. This war has barely begun, and we've already been defeated. Even so, will you destroy this frail old body, Servant of Saber?"
Saber looked at Matou Zouken and answered.
"If what you say is true, then there is no need to fight in vain."
"But if you're lying, there won't be a next time. The same goes for your heir. If you don't learn from this and try to snipe my master again, I'll kill you without mercy."
When Matou Zouken heard Saber's words, the smile on his face grew even wider.
"Yeah, I promise."
The old man disappeared.
283: Rider, you must control the world
At this moment, the picture gradually darkened.
The screen playback ends here.
Although Shinji Matou learned his lesson, all the viewers knew that things would not end like this.
It was obvious that Zouken Matou was protecting his grandson.
Also, everything Matou Zouken and Emiya Shirou said about Sakura was all lies!!!
At this moment, countless magicians and heroic spirits secretly felt that it was a pity.
If we could completely get rid of Shinji Matou and Zouken Matou right here.
Then Sakura probably wouldn't have suffered so much.
Unfortunately, there are no ifs.
After all, Shirou Emiya had just become the Master and was not familiar with everything.
And Shirou Emiya still has goodwill towards this world.
At this moment, the Fifth Holy Grail War.
Shinji Matou looked at the scene on the screen and sneered.
"Hmph, naive guy."
However, even though he said this, he had already found a place to hide.
After everything he did was exposed.
Shinji Matou believed that if they met him on the road, Shirou Emiya and others would definitely not let him go.
So, when the video just starts to give a detailed introduction of what I have done.
Shinji Matou had already found a place to hide.
Moreover, in Matou Shinji's opinion, this is simply killing two birds with one stone!!!
He hid himself first and let Shirou Emiya fight with the other masters.
Wait until they have almost finished fighting, then go out.
You can directly pick up the leak!!!
"Hahahaha, I'm so ashamed!!!"
Also in the Fifth Holy Grail War.
Emiya Shirou looked at himself in the picture.
I couldn't help but pound the table.
At this moment, his heart was full of regret.
He regretted why he didn't just deal with the grandfather and grandson directly.
He regretted that he was so easily deceived by others.
"After that, I will find out the truth. I guess it will be very difficult."
Emiya Shirou muttered.
At this moment, when everyone is discussing the content of the previous video.
The screen starts playing!!!
At this moment, the next video to be played appears on the screen.
[The King of Conquerors and the King of Heroes, a clash of kings!!!]
When everyone saw this title, they were stunned.
When they realized that this was the battle between Gilgamesh and Iskandar, all the magicians and the audience were excited!
Everyone is full of anticipation.
Looking forward to the video!!!
At this moment, the Fourth Holy Grail War.
Under the organization of King of Conquerors Iskandar.
Several kings who participated in this Holy Grail War as heroic spirits are holding this gathering of kings.
The three kings, the Hero King, the Conqueror King, and the Knight King, are discussing the kingly way here.
The moment the picture appeared, everyone stopped discussing.
King of Heroes Gilgamesh looked at this scene and laughed out loud.
